The Age-End Numbers
By an unworthy servant

If a prophet prophesies something and
it doesn’t come true, the Word defines him as a false prophet. There are many false prophets out in the
world. And many of them, like William
Miller and his successors in the various Adventist sects, Jehovah Witnesses’
founder Charles Taze Russell and his successors, Herbert W. Armstrong and some
of his successors, etc have all dared to declare themselves to be some sort of a
prophet or at least have prophetic capabilities and have established dates for
the age-end. All of these so-called
prophets, plus thousands of others, have failed over the years.
Some of the would be prophets, in
particular the Pentecostal/Holy Roller movement types, have learned that to
establish exact dates for age-end events can make one a false prophet when the
dates fail. To avoid being labeled a
false prophet, some of these Pentecostal prophets have learned a little trick
that William Miller, Charles Russell, Herbert Armstrong and thousands of others
never learned. It is that would be
prophets should not establish exact dates for things to happen; but rather
prophesy things happening in an unspecified future date.
I remember a so-called Pentecostal
prophet named Chuck Youngbrandt who prophesied in the 1970s about a coming
earthquake in Chicago that would kill many and wreck havoc on the whole city
(per his Mar 29, 1999 Staff and Sword newsletter). But he made his prophecy as an open ended one
as far as a date. Thus, the first time
Chicago has a damaging earthquake he can claim fulfillment of his prophecy. And if Chicago does not have one, his
prophecy is still valid and still can come true at some future date. With these open ended dates, so-called
prophets will never be wrong. They can
also say that their prophecy is still future.
One of the conclusions reached by many
students of the Word is that no one can know the dates of age-end events as
they were not given by the prophets. And
there is that statement by YESHUA at Matthew 24:36 to the effect that no one
knows the exact day and hour of the fulfillment of the age-end prophecies in
Matthew 24 but Ha AV (The FATHER) only in heaven. Even the heavenly messengers don’t know. Because of this text, many Christians have
come to believe that no one can know anything about the dates; yet, that’s not
what YESHUA said. He said no one can
know the exact day or hour; not the year or even the month.
The thought eventually came to me that
if Christendom’s interpretation was correct; it meant that no one can
understand any of the dating of the age-end prophecies in the Word. This would mean that they all are open-ended
as far as dating. Thus, YHWH can
proclaim that the United States/Ephraim of the House of Israel will one day be
attacked and destroyed nationally in the age-end. But without a date, its fulfillment would
always be an open question. If it
doesn’t happen in 5,000 years, The Word could not be proven wrong since it
could still have fulfillment in 10,000 years.
The same reasoning applies to all of
the age-end dates. If The Word does not
reveal the dates and if man cannot interpret them from the Word, the case can
be made that any event in question is open ended as far as date. Thus, the promise of the return of YESHUA to
establish His Messianic kingdom could always be future if this fact cannot be
decided by date. If believers wait 5,000
or 10,000 years for it, the conclusion would always be that it would happen “someday.”
But in Matthew 24:42, YESHUA did
command His followers to watch, though they don’t know the exact day or hour of
His return. Now, He didn’t say the exact
year or month (which presumably could be or should be known if His followers
are to “watch”). In fact, in verse 42,
He did not repeat the matter of not knowing the exact day. The point being is that His followers must
know the month and year and very possibly even the exact day when He will
return. What for certain that will not
be known is the exact hour.
This reasoning can also be applied to
most or all of the other relevant age-end prophecies. This means that in communicating His Word,
The MOST HIGH has not presented us with a mass of unspecified events that could
conceivably happen in the next 5,000; 10,000 or even 100,000 years. He has presented prophecies of coming events
which are precisely dated as far as year, month and perhaps even by exact days
in many instances. It is this precise
dating arrangement which makes the Hebrew prophets authentic prophets. So the dates are there and they must whet our
appetites to know. It just depends on
study, knowledge and understanding.
Like others, this writer has too worked
for years in study and in contemplation trying to establish the age-end dating
plan of YHWH. I have been wrong in my
conclusions on occasion and accordingly tried to often place them in the
context of “possibilities.” But I have learned
one essential thing. One cannot begin to
address YHWH’s dating methods without understanding the chronology of
Adam. The Scriptures do not seem to
define the age of the heavens, the sun, earth, of the creation of life, or of
the age of generic non-Adamic man. But
the Word does precisely define the chronology of Adam.
Once the chronology Adam man is
established, it is possible to do much in the way of establishing years, months
and even days in some instances for future events. But it takes much study and hard work to put
together such a chronology. And it is
absurd to take the word of some supposed scholar on chronology and hang one’s
hat on it. While some of these persons
knew some things about chronology and dating, I have found that they usually
come to some bad conclusions. The point
is you must do your own study to know the historic chronology of Adam.
For such a need, this writer many years
ago prepared a chronology of Adam. It is
in chapters 233-234 of volume 15 of Ezekiel and YHWH’s Judgment for the Good
News People. This work is not
infallible. It is the work of a limited
man, which may or may not be correct.
Any student of truth interested in the Word must do his/her own study of
chronology to be certain on it.
In my work, I have relied heavily on
the Jubilee years which come every 49 years.
But in interpreting Lev 25:8-55 on this theme, there are problems in
defining which year is the 50th year and is it per the agriculture year or the
regular Scriptural year. Per my
determination, there are two possibilities here. First, the more traditional Jewish approach
is that it is the 50th agricultural year (which is what is followed in the
studies on prophetic dating at this web site).
Alternatively, it could be the 49th Scriptural year which by inclusive
counting is the 50th year from the last Jubilee (which must be kept on the
table of possibilities).
But in general, the work of this writer
in Ezekiel and YHWH’s Judgment on chronology seems about right except for the
Jubilee question. Yet, even in this
presentation, there was a point which could not be precisely settled. There is a set off of 393 years from the
division of the kingdom under Rehoboam till the fall of Jerusalem to the
Babylonians (which the 2520 year set off to the Jubilee of 1966-1967 CE allows
to have happened in 554 BCE). If you
count the years in the Judean king lists, you count 393. But this list is predicated on inclusive
counted years. Thus, the last counted
year is Zedekiah’s eleventh which didn’t last a full year.
Actually, Jerusalem fell on the 7-17
days of the fourth month in Zedekiah’s eleventh. This was early in the year. So should that 393 year count include Zedekiah’s
eleventh or could there be an interregnum in there for one year? In the vein of an interregnum, it would mean
that the 393 years involved progressive counting (from 947 BCE to 554 BCE)
instead of inclusive counting (from 946 BCE to 554BCE).
In any case, the work herein on
chronology does include an interregnum between Josiah’s year 31 and Jehoikim’s
year one. Jehoahaz ruled three months in
there but evidently was not ruling when the next Aviv one occurred. Interregnums occurred when the throne was
vacant on an Aviv one start of the New Year.
By using an interregnum here, it allows the 40 year count for the
witness of Jeremiah (Jer 25:3) and the 393 years allotted to Judah to both
involve progressive counting. Without
the interregnum, both the 40 and 393-year counts would be inclusive and thus
including the eleventh year of Zedekiah which only lasted until the fourth
month of that year.
There is one powerful Scriptural
reference which suggests that indeed the two counts should be by progressive
counting to make the ultimate end of House of Israel nations come in 2013 CE
instead of 2012 or 2014 CE. It is at
Ezekiel 12:21-25 where YHWH tells the Israelites that their practice of
claiming that the days go by without the fulfillments of the age-end prophecies
will now end (which could happen in the summer of 2012 and allow the national
drought and soon coming first embargo/siege the next winter). As YHWH has it, all the age-end prophecies
will now be fulfilled very rapidly. The
year 2013 could also be important because it is an intercalcary year as
suggested in the prophecy of doom for Israel by Ezekiel as given in an
intercalcary year (Ezek 1:1-8:1).
Ezekiel is crucial to understanding the
age-end at least as pertains to Israel.
It starts with Ezekiel’s opening in his thirtieth year (Ezek 1:1), which
is dated at this website in Daniel’s 2520-year Set-offs and Ezekiel’s 7 Years
in 2009 CE. The next Ezekiel date is day
five of the sixth month of year 31 (Ezek 8:1).
Sometime after day five of the sixth month, Ezek 12:21-25 occurs. It is not clear how long after but probably
soon since the still next date occurs in Ezek 20:1 with day 10 of the fifth
month of year 32. This suggests that the
final siege on the national House of Israel may start after the sixth month of
year 31 and not before.
Since the fall of Jerusalem to the
Babylonians was the ante-type for the fall of the House of Israel (Ezek 4:3),
it suggests that the final 390-day siege on Israel starts in the third/fourth
month of a year to end on day 17 of the fourth month of the next year (this
makes the Jewish fast day applicable to the House of Israel as well as Judah). Since the final siege perhaps could not have
started before the sixth month of Ezekiel’s year 31, Ezek 12 suggests that the
final siege may start in Ezekiel’s year 33 and then end in his year 34. This translates to 2012-2013 CE for the final
siege of 390 days.
As explained in Daniel’s 2520-year Set-offs
and Ezekiel’s 7 Years study at this web site, it is very possible that with the
invasion and conquest of the House of Israel (at least Ephraim) in perhaps 2013
CE, there probably will be pockets of resistance which holds out for some
months and maybe even a year more before the conquerors really gain total
control of the land area.
There is too the matter of gathering up
the people and placing them in containment areas for later disposition to
slavery in payment of Israel’s debts.
All of this can take a year from 2013 to 2014 CE. So possibly, the importance of 2013 CE may
lie in the invasion and in 2014 CE the end of resistance and the actual
deportation of the people into slavery in other countries of the world. Alternatively, the siege could start in 2013
and end in 2014 with the invasion and deportation of people that year.
There is a check or bench mark on
dating thru the Word with the Jubilees (which runs from Yom Kippur of year 49
in a cycle to Yom Kippur of year 50/1).
But either way, with inclusive or progressive counting for the kings,
these check marks must be met. Yet, the
point must be made that either way, it is very easy to be off a year. Because of the above reasoning from Ezekiel
justifying a 393 year progressive count, the following comments on chronology
will stay with the belief that the kingdom divided in 947 BCE and not 946 BCE
as is very plausible.
Regardless, in terms of dating age-end
events, many of them are closely connected to Old Testament chronology (like
the fall of the national House of Israel in c2013-2014 CE) while others do not
seem to require this determination (like the return of YESHUA in the upcoming
Jubilee of 2015-2016 CE or just in 2016 if it alone is the Jubilee, the acceptable
year of YHWH defined in Luke 4:19-21, which ties back to Isaiah 61:1-2 which
just happens to be the Jubilee).
Thus, if we can date the Jubilee, we
should then have the year of the return of YESHUA. Based on the Jubilee of 1966-1967 or one in 1967-1968
CE, the next one has to be 2015-2016 or 2016-2017 CE. While some might not like the idea of the
Jews gaining Jerusalem in the Jubilee, they can also take a look at the Jubilee
of 1917-1918 CE. A House of Israel
British army took Jerusalem from the Ottoman Turks in Dec 1917, another probable
Jubilee period on the basis of the agricultural year being the Jubilee.
Some
Verification of the Age-End from Dating Factors
As
noted above, a general outline of chronology is at chapters 233-234 in volume
15 of Ezekiel and YHWH’s Judgment for the Good News People at the left menu of www.age-end.news. The following
comments are predicated on this outline of Scriptural chronology which has been
prepared on the premise that the 393 year count of the divided kingdom days
from Rehoboam in c947 BCE to the fall of Jerusalem in c554 BCE was by
progressive counting. Alternatively, the
count could have been by inclusive counting from c946 BCE to c554 BCE. But either way, 554 BCE seems reasonably
firm.
947-946
BCE The division of the Israelite
kingdom under Rehoboam
765-764
BCE House of Israel subdued Moab (later
to be France); but this was the beginning of Assyria’s rise of power.
c736-735
BCE. The start of the Assyrian
conquests of the House of Israel.
690-689
BCE The fall of House of
Israel/Ephraim/Samaria to the Assyrians
682-681
BCE The fall of much of Yehudah also to
the Assyrians (but not Yehudah in the Jerusalem area).
554
BCE The fall of Jerusalem to the Babylonians
503-502
BCE The end of the Babylonian kingdom
and the fall of Babylon to the Medes/Persians
1574-1575
CE. A Jubilee year. The House of Israel settlement of North
America and the Caribbean perhaps started about this date (first by French
Huguenots FL/SC in 1562-1565, later by the Huguenots in the 1570s and with the
English in NC in 1584). Possibly the
English planning or discussions on the settlement of North America started by
1574. Queen Elizabeth granted a charter
to Sir Humphrey Gilbert on June 11, 1578 to discover and colonize remote
heathen and barbarous lands (which devolved to North America). Both the Huguenots and English were of the
Lost House of Israel expelled by the Assyrians in c740-682 CE. Lost Israelites from Holland were soon to
follow.
1570s
CE. A number of famous English explorers
made explorations to North America or the Caribbean in the 1570s—including Sir
Francis Drake, Sir Martin Frobisher, Sir Humphrey Gilbert, Sir John Hawkins, Sir
Walter Raleigh and Sir William Winter.
Any one of these explorers could have played a pivotal role in 1574-1575
to justify the importance of that Jubilee year.
As a minimum, the Jubilee year of 1574-1575 can be possibly defined as
the single most likely date for the beginnings of the settlement of North
America and the Caribbean by the English, Huguenots and Dutch people of the
lost House of Israel.
May
15, 1607 CE saw the beginnings of the Virginia colony settlement.
Jun
10, 1610, Julian calendar (Gregory calendar was cJun 20,1610; or day 28 of the
3d month per the Scriptures) saw the Jamestown colony abandoned. The survivors boarded a ship and were in the
process of leaving when the new Governor De La Warr arrived with new settlers
and supplies. The people leaving then
returned with the new arrivals and Jamestown became a permanent English
settlement. Pentecost was around May 19
in 1610 (per the Julian calendar) and comes on or about May 19 in 2010 (per the
Gregory calendar). It is tempting to
think that the Jamestown settlement was finalized a few days after Pentecost in
1610. Since 40 years is a period of
testing, 400 years is ten times more significant. On c28/03/2010 (cJun 10, 2010), this date
completes a 400-year test on America in the form of the Jamestown colony which
was first settled on May 15, 1607 (Julian calendar).
1611 CE seems to have started a
400-year test on England, America and the English speaking peoples in the form
of the first publication of the Authorized King James version of the Scriptures
on May 2, 1611, Julian calendar (about May 12, 1611, Gregory calendar; or day
30 of the 2d Scriptural month). In 2011,
day 30 of the 2d month comes cJun 1, 2011.
1620
CE. The religious Puritans and Pilgrims
(evidently Separatists/Baptists) settled Massachusetts. The Pilgrims sailed from England on Sep 16,
1620, Julian Calendar (just before Yom Teruah); drew up the Mayflower compact on
Nov 11, 1620, Julian Calendar (about day 26 of Bul Scripturally); and commenced
preparing for the settlement of the Plymouth colony on or about Dec 21, 1620,
Julian Calendar (cDec 31, 1620 Gregorian calendar or about day 7 of the tenth
month in the Scriptural calendar). This
completes a test period of 390 years which was the required period in Ezek
4:4-5. It is interesting to think that
this settlement may have actually started near Hanukkah and just before the tenth
day of Teveth in 1620. The date of c07/10/2010
(cDec 13, 2010) could be significant.
1621
CE. While the Pilgrims stayed on board
the ship, they began clearing land and building buildings in Dec 1920. But it was not until March/Aviv 1621 before
the Pilgrims as a group actually left the ships to take up residence on the
land and begin cultivating it for crops.
Since their voyage was off course and they did not land where they
planned per their land grant, they had to send word back to London for a new
grant. They did this and British
authorities issued the new grant (the Pierce Patent, dated Jun 1, 1621 per the
Julian calendar). The word on this event
came back to Plymouth and reached the people there on Nov 11, 1621 (per the
Julian calendar, or about the 25th day of the 8th Scriptural month).
1623
CE. Originally, the Plymouth ante type
was socialistic with communal farming but Governor Bradford assigned land to
the colonists in their own right to farm in 1623 (probably in the spring)—meaning
that the 390 years of land occupation could run from 1623 to 2013. It was also Bradford who first formally
established a Thanksgiving Day holiday the last day in November instead of
choosing such a day based on the Scriptural Sukkot.
June
1623 CE. Captain Francis West arrived on
the ship Plantation with his commission as Admiral of New England with control
over fishing and the waterways which effectively placed the Plymouth colony
back under some secular British government.
1734-1750
CE. Great Religious Awakening in North
American colonies.
1739-1744
CE. The Spanish-English War (also called
War of Jenkin’s Ear) which transitioned into King George’s War in Europe in
1743-1748.
1742
CE. James Oglethorpe led a force to
defeat Spanish invaders at the Battle of Bloody Marsh at St Simons Island,
Georgia to culminate Jenkin’s Ear War in North America. This was the first military defeat of an
invading force by the American Colonials.
It set the stage for the Colonials to be independent of Britain.
1756-1757
CE The main years of the
British-Colonial war with the French (ancient Moabites) and Indians was 1754 to
1780. The middle years of 1756-1757 saw
the colonies begin to exercise some independence (per French and Indian Wars in
Concise Columbia Encyclopedia, p. 307, 1983 ed); which culminated in 1776 with
the Declaration of Independence. From
1`757 to 1776, there is an interesting 19-year time cycle.
1776
CE. Declaration of Independence.
1788
CE. The Ratification of the Constitution,
the election of new leaders, and the formal
establishment
of the present US government.
1831-1832
CE The House of Israel/Ephraim/the US
spread from the east coast to the west coast with the settlement of (British
controlled) Oregon starting with thinking in 1831 (the US and Britain had a
joint control over the territory since 1818 but it was mainly in the hands of
the British) and intensified in 1832.
Newsinhistory.com noted this advertisement from the Portsmouth Journal
of Literature and Politics (Portsmouth, New Hampshire, May 14, 1831) which may
have kicked off the idea of settling Oregon which was then essentially in
British hands:
“There seems to be no limit to American
enterprise.
“Things that were considered, a year ago, to be impracticable, or wild,
are, this year, sober matters of fact.
“…We have recently seen an advertisement, issued from Boston, inviting
emigrants to the number of 5,000, to go and settle on the shores of the Oregon,
or Columbia River; 1,000 to go out the present year; a good code of laws is
annexed; and everything about the scheme looks well on paper. There is no limit
to American enterprise.”
1834. The actual start of American settlement of
Oregon Territory (Oregon Historical Quarterly, Mar 1928). Wyeth and Kelley each led expeditions to
Oregon and Methodist missionaries Jason and Daniel Lee accompanied Wyeth to
establish a mission ten miles north of present Salem (per Return to a Place
called Oregon, by Roxann Gess Smith).
Yom
Kippur 1966-1967 CE (or alternatively Aviv 1967 to Aviv 1968). A Jubilee year. The Israeli Six-Day War saw the Jews gain old
Jerusalem.
Aviv
2012/2013 CE may see Philadelphia flee to Petra. This move could come in either year or
perhaps involve both years in that the move could start in 2012 to a
intermediate, safe, assembly area to allow the gathering of the very elect with
the final move to Petra in 2013 once the body of the group is defined. The flee of the very relect Remnant of Israel
to safety is allowed in stages over some time where perhaps single individuals
or small groups flee the House of Israel lands as they can.
2012
or 2013 CE may see the start of the siege on the House of Israel
2013/2014
CE may see the invasion, conquest and deportation of the surviving 10% of House
of Israel people.

From
Nov 1620 and the Mayflower Compact to 1623 when Governor Bradford allocated
land to the Pilgrims to farm on their own (instead of the socialized communasl
farming of the land as followed in the first years at Plymouth), and to June
1623 when Francis West arrived as Admiral of New England (to govern fishing and
the waterways), Plymouth was apparently self governing for all purposes under
religious rule and with an attempt to have a religious community as had existed
with the Ana-baptists and was Scripturally based for the Apostolic Assembly and
the age-end very elect. With the arrival
of West, this put the colony back under secular political rule (while West did
not stay long, the people were beginning to want a secular government over the
Massachusetts Bay area which was by 1623 having some more British settlement
and influence). From 1620 to 1623,
Plymouth had three years of religious independence under community property. In 1623, the government control over the land
changed. Once the people gained control
of the land and became more economically independent, they became responsible
and more independent for their actions and their choice of secularization
instead of more Scriptural approaches.

invading army enters the US, there probably will be pockets of resistance which
the invaders will have to fight and conquer before the whole country is
secure.
2014 CE may be the final end of the
last vestiges of opposition in the House of Israel’s Ephraim/Samaria in the North
American continent. The start of the
invasion and conquest of the House of Israel may start in the early summer of
2012 CE, perhaps in the 3rd or 4th month.
As a minimum, the 390-day siege may end by the 17th day of the 4th month
of 2013. Once the invasion commences,
the invaders will likely face some resistance from small groups of Israelites
which can last several months and up to a year later in 2014 before the
invaders have totally secured the land.
By 2013/2014 CE, the defeated people of
Israel will be rounded up and held in containment areas. The once United States will be divided as
follows: The Cubans get Florida. The Mexicans get the Southwest US from Texas
to California. Chinese get much of the
West from San Francisco north to Alaska.
The Russians get Alaska. The
Blacks get the Old South. Much of the
rest of the US will be covered with nuclear radiation making it unsafe to live
there. Most of this will probably take
place by the early summer of 2013 or 2014.
The 10% surviving Israelites will now
be sold to world powers as slaves for the debts run up by the US and Britain
and still owed foreigners in China, Japan, Russia, the EU, the Middle East
Muslim states, etc. The summer of 2013
or 2014 may see the Israelite survivors shipped off into slavery around the
world. The summer of 2013 or 2014 should
see the end of American/Ephraim independence in North America and the
enslavement and deportation of its people to slavery around the world.
2018-2019 CE should be the end of the Babylonian
social and economic system in play since 503-502 BCE when the physical nation
of Babylon fell to the Medes.
Some More Great Prophetic Dates
Many of the great prophetic dates have
significance when properly understood.
Numbers like 6 (the number of man), 7, 40, 49, 360, 390, 400, 430, 1150,
1260, 1290, 1335, 2300, 2520 (seven times one time of 360), etc mean
something. By using the chronology
outlined in chapters 233-234 of volume 15 of Ezekiel and YHWH’s Judgment on the
Good News People and these prophetic numbers, some fantastic revelations
develop in terms of time.
For instance, Babylon, under
Belshazzar, fell to Darius (the Mede) and the Medes and Persians sometime
around 500 BCE (possibly as early as 503-502 BCE)--after seeing mene, mene,
tekel, upharsin (Dan 5:25). This
reference of doom on Babylon interestingly adds up to 2,520 gerahs.
Each shekel (tekel) is twenty gerahs
(Ex 30:13; Num 3:47). One thousand
gerahs equal a mene and 500 gerahs equal an upharsin or peres (“The United
States and British Empire Foretold in the Bible,” p. 74). Thus, the sum total of gerahs in mene, mene,
tekel, upharsin is 2,520.
From 503-491 BCE to 2018-2030 CE, there
are 2,520 years which can be relevant for several reasons. For example, the years 2025-2030 CE may be
significant in terms of Yehoyakhin’s 25th year, which could have relevance in
Daniel’s 2520-year set offs. Even 2018-2019
could have some relevance, which is presently unclear.
Also, after YESHUA comes, the world
does not immediately accept Him and His rule.
Some years may be needed to bring the nations (like Egypt) into strict
obedience with His government and law from Jerusalem and to get rid of the
Babylonian sun worship practices--perhaps in 2018-2019. Maybe the years 2018/2019 CE will see the
final end of the Babylonian sun worship system.
Yet, the Egyptian problem lasts 40
years. The 40 years punishment on Egypt
(Ezek 29:1, 9-16; Zech 14:17-19) apparently may end by 2045 or soon thereafter
(the start of the 1,000 years), thus suggesting that it could start as early as
2005.
From the fall of Jerusalem by the
Babylonians (c554 BCE) to the conquest of Jerusalem by the Jews in the Six Day
war (1967), 2,520 years passed. The 40
years test on the Jews/Yehudah in Jerusalem may have started in 1967 (to end in
2007).
Another possible starting date for this
40 years is 1973, which dated the last Jewish-Arab war (fulfilling the
prophetic aspects of the earlier fall of Yehudah). Thus, this 40-year trial on Jerusalem should
end in 2013, by progressive counting, from 1973.
More Interesting Dates
The Egyptian invasion of Yehudah by
Shishak occurred in Rechavam’s fifth year after the division of the kingdom (I
Kg 14:25-26). Probably, Rechavam’s fourth
year saw the termination of the three year grace period that YHWH allowed
Yehudah (II Chron 11:17; 12:2).
Yehudah’s accountable sin perhaps
started that year and lasted some 390 years until the kingdom ended (totaling
about 393 years by progressive counting from the actual division of the kingdom
which likely occurred in Shlomo’s last year or Jeroboam’s first year).
From Shishak’s invasion and conquest of
Yehudah (c943 BCE) to c1998, some 2,940 years or 60 Jubilees passed.
From James I and his unification of the
divided kingdom and his decision to authorize the KJV at the Hampton Court
Conference (1604) to 2004, there are 400 years.
From the actual start of translating work on the KJV (1607) and the start
of settlement of Jamestown (1607) to 2007, another 400 years occurs. From De La Warr’s arrival at Jamestown and
the revival of the colony until 2010, another 400 years pass.
From Yisrael’s entrance into the
promise land (c1424 BCE) to c2007, there are 3,430 years or 70 Jubilees.
The 70th Jubilee occurs in 2015-2016/2016
(paralleling the first division of the land under Yehoshua after entering the
land). Since Yisrael entered the
promised land in the 41st year of the Jubilee, it suggests that Yehoshua fought
a war of seven or so years with the inhabitants in Canaan.
While a similar seven years’ war may
not occur in the age end and the restoration work of YESHUA, there is evidence
from I and II Maccabees that YESHUA will fight at least a three or a three and
one half years war with the people who attack Him and the election in Jerusalem
after He returns. This means that the
return may happen by the next Jubilee.
The Muslim Sites
The rebuilding of the Temple has been
mentioned elsewhere in studies at this website.
If it should develop that the Third Temple goes up where the present
Dome of the Spirits sets, then there are some very relevant dates to
consider.
Possibly, from the set up or
recognition of the site which would later become the Dome of the Spirits on the
Temple Mount (c862-863 CE) to c2012-2013 CE, there are 1,150 years (with 2,300
mornings and evenings) or 1/2 of 2,300 (Dan 8:11-14). The current, actual Dome of the Spirits
edifice was apparently built as late as the 16th century (“The Coming Last Days
Temple,” p. 343).
However, the place was possibly
recognized as an Islamic religious site much earlier since it must have been
known for ages as having religious importance.
In “The Coming Last Days Temple” (p. 343), Dr Randall Price notes that
Arabic edifices and facilities have often preserved original place names of
sites. Thus, the modern Dome of the
Spirits or Dome of the Tablets could link to an earlier conception about the
site.
Since the present Dome of the Rock (to
the South) actually arose and was constructed in phases over the years 638 to
715 CE by the Arabs (“The Coming Last Days Temple,” p. 170-171), there is a
great likelihood that the Northern area of the spirits or tablets also must
have had some significance (after all, it too had a large outcropping of
bedrock).
It may have been cleared at an early
time and even had a previous structure over it before the present dome was
built in later years. Based simply on
the numbers, this site must have had some early relevance after the Dome of the
Rock was completed. To take a wild
guess, this writer would opt for something about this site perhaps around the
year 862-863 CE (again, based upon the numbers).
The 862-863 dates are approximate as it
is difficult to pin the date down precisely. The years 2012-2013 may see the clearing of
the Temple site and the building of an altar and the commencement of the daily
sacrifice--which would allow an elapse of 1,150 years from just after 862-863
CE. A 1,150-year time factor could be
pertinent in terms of Daniel 8:11-14.
This writer is not prepared to ignore it at this time.
For sure, 1,290 years (which could
cover the years of the Abomination of Desolation) seem to run from 715 CE (the
final year for the construction of the Dome of the Rock) to 2005. This is a very intriguing count!
More Dates
From the fall of the House of Yisrael
to the Assyrians, in successive stages (from about 742-682 BCE), until the
restoration of the House of Yisrael (in national and world dominating senses),
in successive stages (from about 1779 to 1839 CE), there are 2,520 years.
As briefly noted above, from the fall
of Jerusalem (and the end of Jewish sovereignty over Jerusalem) in 554 BCE to
the conquest of Jerusalem and the re-assertion of Jewish sovereignty over
Jerusalem on Jun 7, 1967, there are 2,520 years.
From the rise of Grecian supremacy in
world affairs, the defeat of the Persian army at the Granicus River, and the
imposition of the Greek culture upon civilized man in c334 BCE to 1967, there
are 2,300 years.
From the conquest and imposition of
Jewish sovereignty over the Old City of Jerusalem, and the beginning of Jewish
religious worship on the Temple Mount on Jun 7, 1967, until about Sep 23, 1973,
and the termination of Jewish religious worship on the Temple Mount, some 2,300
days pass (per “The Coming Last Days Temple” [p. 604], the last Jewish
religious worship occurred on Aug 8, 1973.
By the Yom Kippur war in Oct 1973, Jewish religious access to the Temple
Mount was successfully terminated by the Arabs, in conjunction with Israeli
authorities).
From the Greek conquest of Palestine by
Ptolemy and the resulting attempted imposition of the Greek sun worship culture
and religion upon the Jews (c301/291 BCE) to the year 2000/2010 CE, 2,300
mornings-evenings pass (Dan 8:11-14).
From the birth of Seth (c3883 BCE) to
c1998, there were 5,880 years or 120 Jubilees (Gen 6:3 allocates 120
periods/yoms/yomim--which can mean Jubilees).
From the end of the flood (c2356 BCE)
to c2006, there are 4361 years or 89 Jubilees.
From the fall of Samaria (c690 BCE) to
c2006, there are 2695 years or 55 Jubilees.
From the birth of YESHUA (c5 BCE) to
c2005, there are 2009 years or 41 Jubilees.
From Nimrod’s sin and the establishment
of Babel sun worship in the post flood era (c2237 BCE) to Yarovam’s formal
establishment of sun worship in the House of Yisrael (c947-946 BCE), there was
1,290 years. From Yarovam’s sin to
Constantine’s effective marriage of church and state and the start of the
ante-typical great tribulation (c314-315 CE), there was 1,260 years.
Constantine’s sin to the end of the
great tribulation in Britain saw 1,260 years pass (perhaps ending around 1574-1575
CE, a Jubilee year). This marked the
last major arrest and persecution of Anabaptists. It happened that year on Mar 4, 1574 (old
style) or 1575 (new style--after 1752, when Britain adopted Pope Gregory’s
calendar changes). The total from
Yarovam’s sin to the end of the British tribulation was 2,520 years.
From the start of religious liberty and
the real Protestant Reformation in Britain in 1574-1575 CE to 2004-2005 CE,
there are 430 years. Is it possible that
the years 2004-2005 will hold some significance in the age end?
In the Book, 430 years is a significant
period of blessing. The First Temple
stood 430 years. Ezra’s Temple stood 430
years to the start of Herod’s rebuilding efforts (in c20 BCE). The time from Avraham’s test and offer of
Yitzhak (c1894 BCE, per Gen 22:1-17; Acts 3:25; Gal 3:8-17) to the Exodus
(c1464 BCE) was 430 years.
From Yarovam’s sin and the division of
Yisrael (c947-946 BCE) to Constantine’s de facto marriage of church and state
(c314-315 CE)--1,260 years passed. From
Constantine’s sin to King James I of Britain and his unification of the divided
kingdom (c1604-1605)--1,290 years occurred.
From James I to Oliver Cromwell and the receipt of real freedom of
religion in Britain (c1649-1650)--45 years passed (totaling 1,335 years from
Constantine’s sin).
From the time when Martin Luther nailed
his 95 theses on the door of the Wittenburg, Germany Catholic Church with the
start of the Protestant Reformation (Oct 1517) to 2007, there are 490
years.
YESHUA reaches His goal in the third
day (Lu 13:32); YHWH revives Yisrael on the third day (Hos 6:1-2); YESHUA
stayed with the Samaritans two days before resuming His ministry in Galilee on
the third day (Jo 4:40-43); YHWH gave bread for two days (Ex 16:29; Jo 6:48,
50); Yisrael was consecrated for two days before YHWH came down on the third
day (Ex 19:10-11); and the marriage supper happened on the third day (Jo
2:1). Since one day is 1,000 years to
YHWH (II Pet 3:8), could it be that this third day period, just outlined, dates
from the birth of YESHUA in c5 BCE or his first Jubilee Passover (at reaching
his 12th year in c7 CE)? Could the third
day in this period start around 1996 to 2020?
The Mar-Apr 2001 “Prophecy Flash” (p.
49) quoted Rav Chaim Richman of the Temple Institute. He notes that the year 2000 was 1,930 years
from the destruction of the Temple (in 70 CE).
Add that 1930 to the 70 years of the Babylonian exile and one comes to
2,000 years without the Temple/Daily Sacrifice.
These 2,000 years are two days.
Thus, will The ELOHIM revive us and raise us up in the third day (Hos
6:2)?
A 390-day test on the American people
happened from Jan 20, 1998, to Feb 13, 1999, when the people were given a
chance to begin to clean up their act by cleaning up the US White House over
the Clinton-Lewinsky sodomy scandal. The
people consistently chose to support lying, cheating, dishonesty, immorality,
etc. Judgment is now ready to
strike. Is it possible that this 390
days phenomenon will have relevance in the age-end? Is it possible that co-presidents Bill and
Hillary Clinton will come back into power over America in late 2012 or early
2013 by election, deaths of Obama and Biden and/or the work of a new
Constitutional Convention? These are
tyrannical and evil people. If they
return to power, it will be catastrophic for America.
While the above outline offers the
better Scriptural evidence, there are also some other events linked to
important prophetic numbers. For
example, the world’s population hit the six billion level in 1999 (Feb 5, 1999,
“Spokesman-Review,” p. A3). Is 6 billion
a significant number?
FDR launched his New Deal of
liberalism, Socialism, humanism and outcome based education in 1933-1934. After 66 years of this evil, the nation is
ready for judgment in 1999-2000. Is 66 a
unique number?
From the start of WWII (1939) to 1999,
there was 60 years (10 x 6, the number of man).
From America’s entrance into that war (1941) to 2001, 60 years
pass. Is 60 significant? Well, the so-called War on Terrorism was
launched by Bush in 2001 based on the so-called terrorist attack of 9-11-2001.
