If there are any actual and meaningful biblical
patterns in the study of date
calculations based on the real time historical biblical
records, then perhaps
the study I've been working on may have some relevance
when trying to
place a possible time-frame for the
Rapture/Tribulation. I know one thing,
we're almost there - He's coming soon!
As I've continued with my calendar study during these
past years I've
discovered some amazing patterns/cycles that have yet
to be confirmed,
but has produced a pretty solid case for what appears
to be more than
just coincidences.
46 YEARS -
My most recent finding I discovered when reading in the
book of John.
There we are told that it took "46 years" to
build the temple. 46 years is
where we are right now from the year 1967 to present. I
wondered if
there was any other time in history with any
significance where there is a
definite 46-year time-frame, and I discovered that
there is.
From the time Israel arrived at Mt. Sinai to when they
arrived in the Promise
Land, including the 5 yrs. for distribution of the
land, equals 46 years. They
stayed at Sinai one year. From there they left Sinai
for the Promise Land.
When the spies returned from spying out the land, it is
then God pronounced
the judgment of 40 years of wandering in the desert.
Afterwards, when they
finally arrived in the Promise Land, it took 5 years
for the distribution of the
land. That is a total of 46 years.
There is no way of proving a coincidence, however, it
is interesting that we
are now in that exact same time-frame that existed from
the Exodus to
distribution of the Promise Land which compares to our
current year of 1967
when Israel captured Jerusalem to our present date -
equaling the same
length of time (46 yrs.). This is also the same length
of time it took to build
the 2nd temple.
In addition to the above, there is another coincidence
involving an interesting
cycle.
2520Yrs. and 2520 Days
Why 2520 years/days? Is there significance to these
years/days - perhaps an
established pattern using these times? I'll try and
explain what I have found in
my studies and see what you think if these
patterns/cycles are more than
just coincidence.
When following the geneology record given in Genesis on
the 360-day year to the
year of the Exodus is 2520 years - (See "God's Calendar
Study".......................
http://ofureyslibrary.7p.com/Sect.%201.html) we have the
following:
2520 years (March 14) = 2483.8 on the 365.25/day
calendar which just happens to
be Dec. 25 - the year/day of the Exodus.
