"Significance of 430"


 
I was asked about the use of 430 in the Bible.
 
430 years from the Abrahamic Covenant to the Exodus (then 40 years).
430 years (360 days) from the Malachi (close of OT) to Christ's birth.
430 days for years in Ezekiel 4 (390 +40).
 
Ezekiel's 430 years were dealt with in "Signs" and came from the events of the Babylonian Captivity to AD 1914, 1933, 1948, and 1967. It is from 1967 that puts us now 40 years later (1948 puts us at 60 360-day years in 18 days). Now there are these 430 days from the start of the war last Summer until Rosh Hashanah 2007. The mathematical improbabilities are too enormous to comprehend in all of the thematic connections, etc. So it would seem that time has about run its course. At least we should consider it and prepare ourselves.
 
in Christ,
Daniel Matson
