42 Month calculation
Revelation Chapter 11, verse 2&3
(Rev 11:2) But the court which is without the temple leave out, and measure it not; for it is given unto the Gentiles: and the holy city shall they tread under foot forty and two months.
(Rev 11:3) And I will give power unto my two witnesses, and they shall prophesy a thousand two hundred and threescore days, clothed in sackcloth.
I took the above reference and and went one step further to get the exact date in 688 AD. (see previous post link for 688 details)
According to the rules for determining leap years: (from timeanddate.com)
Leap Year Rules: How to Calculate Leap Years
In our modern-day Gregorian calender, three criteria mush be taken into account to identify leap years:
-The year mush be evenly divisible by 4
-If the year can also be evenly divided by 100, it is not a leap year
unless...
-The year is also evenly divisible by 400. Then it is a leap year
According to these rules, the years 2000 and 2400 are leap years, while 1800, 1900, 2100, 2200, 2300, and 2500 are not leap years
Steps I took to convert 42 months of day/years:
1. 365.25 / 12 = 30.4375 (determine month of years)
2. 30.4375 / 4 = 7.609375 (determine leap days of years)
3. 1 / 365.25 = .00273785 (calculate value of 1 day of years)
4. 7.609375 x .00273785 = .020833 (calulate leap days of years)
5. 30.4375 + .020833 = 30.45833 (adding in the leap days of years)
6. 42 x 30.45833 = 1279.250 (total days of years)
7. Now to adjust for the other leap rules:

So, going back from the six-day war in 1967 you get the 688 AD exact date.

(Dan 12:12) Blessed is he that waiteth, and cometh to the thousand three hundred and five and thirty days.
Finally, going forward 1335 days arrives at 2023, same day: 3/21/23.
This brings the 1335 right to Nisan 1 (3/22/2023), which is the blowing of the 7th trumpet ie the day/(year) of wrath.
