Revelation 11:3: And I will give [power] unto my two witnesses, and they shall prophesy a thousand two hundred [and] threescore days, clothed in sackcloth. 4 These are the two olive trees, and the two candlesticks standing before the God of the earth.

Employing the hermeneutic rule of scriptural adjacency we learn:

Revelation 1:20 The mystery of the seven stars which thou sawest in My right hand, and the seven golden candlesticks. The seven stars are the angels of the seven churches: and the seven candlesticks which thou sawest are the seven churches.

Romans 11:24 For if thou [the Gentiles] wert cut out of the olive tree which is wild by nature, and wert grafted contrary to nature into a good olive tree [the Jews]: how much more shall these [the Jews], which be the natural branches, be grafted into their own olive tree?

The Bible defines the two witnesses as the Jewish and Christian church. These were exiled from the Holy Land by Islam, and sent into the world, marked symbolically, specifically, and repeatedly, by the Dome of the Rock - THE ABOMINATION OF DESOLATION.
