Feast of dedication is mentioned 1 x in New Testament in John 10:22

 

6 and 7 verses later, the rapture word G726 harpazo is used consecutively in these verses

 

Joh 10:28 And I give unto them eternal life; and they shall never perish, neither shall any man pluck them out of my hand.

 

Joh 10:29 My Father, which gave them me, is greater than all; and no man is able to pluck them out of my Father's hand.

 

These verses are 3110 verses from the main rapture verses of 1 thess 4:16,17

 

3110= 5 x 622 Enoch birth

 

feast of dedication seems strongly tied to Enoch again.

 

Notice first use of harpazo in John 10:28= 9415 to G726 harpazo

 

there is no gem or strongs #  to match so I looked at verse 9415-it seems to be a type of the rapture

 

1Ki 20:6 Yet I will send my servants unto thee to morrow about this time, and they shall search thine house, and the houses of thy servants; and it shall be, that whatsoever is pleasant in thine eyes, they shall put it in their hand, and take it away.

 

Notice H3947=take away=sounds just like G726=harpazo =to snatch up

I also would like to make clear I do not know when the rapture is.  My own personal speculation and hope is that it is this hannukah.  It seems that numerically speaking the 1st day and the 8th day look possible.  Maybe it is any day in there and the numbers seem to highlight the bookends of the feast.  I do think that if nothing destructive happens (Haggai's shaking) by the 1st day, it won't happen.  But again that is my pure speculation.
