The Ewe and the Remnant

4/3/2011

A quick study:

 I decided to calculate the number of days since Jesus’ crucifixion.  Starting with April 3, 33 AD, the Bethlehem Star date indicated, I multiplied 1978 years times 365.25.  Add to this the number of days from April 3, 2011 to September 3, 2011 (Oh wait; that turns out to be 153!).  The sum is 7,226,175.

 

Then, I divided by 1000 simply due to the reference of a day being one thousand years.  Now the number is 722.6175.  So, 722 plus a remainder of 0.6175.  “A remainder is sort of a remnant, I thought.”  Looking at Biblewheel site, two verses are shown for a value of 6175.  The first is Mat 22:6(kjv):

 

And the remnant took his servants, and entreated them spitefully, and slew them.

 

Thank you, Lord.

Now, the first occurrence of value 722 as a word is “ewe” in Gen 21:28:

 

 And Abraham set seven ewe lambs of the flock by themselves.

 

Only one verse has the value 722, Gen 33:12:

 

And he said, Let us take our journey, and let us go, and I will go before thee.

 

So in the two parts we have a lamb and a remnant and a journey.

Thank you, Lord.

This is how it went the first time through.  I don’t know if this is the exact number of days since 4/3/0033. 

An encouragement,
