Bible Numbers:

The Prophetic Calendar

 

Continued from supplement 2a

 

All this is important on this account: On any given straight-seven-years there can be as many as 1260 + 1290 days, or 1290 + 1290 days (using the adjusted 360-prophetic cal.. For instance, between AD 26 and 33 there would have been 1260 + 1290 days, but between AD 30 and 37, 1290 x 2 days). 

The only time there can be a seven-year period with 1260 x 2 yrs, is upon every 4000 yrs, when the leap month is omitted. Thus, for instance, any seven-yr period between AD 2551 and 2561 would therefore only have 1260 + 1260 days in it. Thus, the fact that from this same date, less 1260 + 1260 years = AD 31 to 41, is further evidence of intentional design to point to Jesus Christ. But to make things absolutely certain, the other two forms of the prophetic seven-year period is used too, (i.e., as said, to AD 5 and 26 BC).

But not only is there three witnesses of the prophetic cal., (i.e., 1260 x 2, 1260 + 1290, and 1290 x 2), but of all three major adjusted calendars as well!

 

7 yrs of 365 days (of the solar cal.), = 2,555 days, with 2 leap days (2,557), thus, AD 2555 less 2,555 years = 1 BC, (the month of Christ's conception according to tradition, upon which is based out modern BC/AD system), less 2 more yrs can agree with the decree of Herod to kill all boy babies (in an attempt to kill the baby Jesus) "two years old and under," (Matt. 2:16).

 

We cannot explain the "mirror" in detail here. The "mirror" is a consistent method in bible numbers of reinforcing Christ as the center of time, and thus the center of God's purposes: Between AD 2555 and 2555 BC there are 5109 years. 5109 divided by 29.53059 days in a literal lunar month = 173.007. This means that there is an exact 7 + 7 lunar years to itself in the mirror. (14 yrs of the lunar cal. may have 5,138/9 or 5,109 days in it.) (By the way, the Jewish traditional date for the exodus (not actual) is 1313 BC, which is 1290 +1335 years to AD 1313, cf., Dan. 12:11,12.)

It is more than a curiosity that 4000 yrs, less the 40 years spent in the wilderness after the exodus, = 3960, which is 1290 + 1335 + 1335 days.

We have shown that a day is as a year. The exodus of 1446 BC (and thus the start of the New Cal., system at the birth of the nation of Israel), + 4 x 360 days-of-years = 6 BC (4 x 360 + 1,440). Interestingly, 360 x 2 years before this was the birth of the forefather of the Jewish rave---Abraham (2166 BC). 

Recall that every 6 years was a lunar cycle, with every 7th cycle being 4 years, thus ending a complete 40-year cycle. Thus, every 6 (or 4) years a 30-day leap month is inserted to keep up to the solar clock.  It is striking that from Abraham's birth till Jesus' birth are 6 x 360 years, and that from the birth of the nation of Israel (at the exodus) till the birth of Christ are 4 x 360 years. 

Thus, according to the "day equals a year" scale, a 30-day leap month (i.e., of 30 day/years), should be added at the time of Christ's birth, thus spanning until when Christ was about 30 years of age, . Amazingly, "about 30 years of age" (Luke 3:23) is when Jesus in fact began His ministry, at which time He became God's Son in the sense that He began His priestly ministry (for He has ever been His Son),  as it says in Heb 5:5 (which quotes Ps. 2:7,cf., Luke. 3:22), " So also Christ did not glorify Himself to be made a high priest, but He who said to Him, "You are My Son, today I have begotten You." 

A priest began his service at age 30, (Num. 4:3; cf., 1:1, 3:15, the theme of "30" is striking:  The Levites were to be numbered above 30 days old, and again above 30 years old (but below 50). They were numbered exactly 1 yr and 1 month after the first New Year of the exodus.

We can can conclude but one reason why Christ would be born at the end of a fourth year cycle ---It is to imply that Jesus is the both the end of the forty-year cycle (since the forty-years cycle ends with the four-year), and thus He is the start of the new. Nevertheless, since He is 6 x 360 (years) from Abraham, this also implies that He is part of an ongoing cycle too. But it may better to see the birth of Abraham and Sarah as being set in the mirror as AD 2156 & 2166 so that they signify the next leap cycle after the major 40th.

Distant past ==> to the exodus (1446 BC), plus another 4 years (of years), = 6 BC (birth of Christ), which then completes a larger 40 years cycle, plus another 6 years (of the next minor cycle), = AD 2155, (i.e., approx. mirror of AD 2156 & 2166 birth of Abraham and Sarah).  

Can you think of any better possible date for the first New Year (1446 BC exodus), other then that which most scholars say is indeed the actual date (i.e., 1446 BC), that produces such a consistent array of patterns that points to Jesus Christ as the center of God's purposes in time? Certainly, this must be that calendar revealed to (but not understood by) Daniel, created by the Almighty that synthesizes the rhythms of those great heavenly clocks, that is, the sun and the moon. Nor have we even begun to scratch the surface of the patterns emerging from the understanding of how the prophetic clock works. 

The arrangement of these dates of epoch events in perfect harmonious working order are too perfect to be coincidental. One might as well believe that his wristwatch is the product of time and chance, if he cannot discern complex arrangement when he sees it! We have yet to mention the fact that there are 480 years from Noah's flood until the birth of Abraham, and hence 1,200 till the exodus! or that Noah was 480 years old when he began to build the Ark, which took 120 years (3 x 40); or that the siege and fall of the Northern tribe of Israel was in 725-2 BC (hence see plus and minus 360 x 2 years with 126 leap months accumulated, or 1260 x 3 days); or that from 725-2 BC plus another 1260 years = AD 536 to 539 (the mirror of the fall of Babylon, and return of the Jews from captivity). But for the rest see, "The Writing on the Wall"

Let me urge any who have not surrendered their life to Yeshua (Jesus) the Messiah, to do so now. He is the One foretold by the prophets to be the Savior of the world. Like the snake on the pole that was hung up during Moses' time, so that whoever looked at it was healed, even so, Jesus, the substitutionary Lamb, was hung upon a cross for you---a curse---that whosoever looks to Him is saved from their sins, and instantly receives eternal life. Upon receiving this eternal salvation, like a new born child you will have the joy of getting to know and please Him more and more, for He sees you even now, and awaits your decision.
