The number seven (and multiples of it) appears almost 600 times in the Bible. This is almost twice as many times as the second most common number (three). The first verse in the Bible is comprised of seven Hebrew words with a total of 28 Hebrew letters. 28 is the seventh triangle number (all numbers from 1 to 7 total 28).

 

The Jewish calendar cycle has 19 years. Seven of them are leap years with a second month of Adar 2 added. Since the Jewish calendar began there have only been seven of these cycles that did not have a prime numbered year. These were the: 71^st, 89^th, 171^st, 213^th, 221^st, 283^rd and 304^th cycles. This anomaly will not occur again until the Jewish year 6176. That will be 403 years from the current Jewish year of 5773. We are now living in this 304^th cycle which ends at sunset on 2 October 2016.

 

In my chart I have listed the: 71^st, 89^th, 171^st, 213^th, 221^st, 283^rd and 304^th prime numbers. The sum of these seven prime numbers is 8323. There are 2557 days in seven solar years. 8323 plus 7 minus 2557 equals: 5773 which, I repeat, is the current Jewish year. 5773 ends at sunset on 4 September 2013. Note that the 171^st prime number (1013) is the prime number gematria of ‘LORD JESUS CHRIST’. 2 x (171 + 1013) equals: the Greek gematria of ‘JESUS CHRIST’ (2368). Could this mean that Jesus will return just before the seven year Tribulation begins on Rosh Hashanah 5774?

 

The last time that Rosh Hashanah occurred as early as 4 September was in the year 1899. That was Rosh Hashanah of 5660. 5773 minus 5660 equals: 113 years. 113 is a unique prime number. 113 x Pi yields the closest result to a whole number: 354.9999699. 354.9999699 rounds off to 355. The maximum number of days in a normal 12 month Jewish year is 355 days.

 

In my chart I have colored the seven leap years in each of the 19-year cycles in light yellow. Since there have been seven of these cycles with no prime numbered years, then there are 49 leap years in this table.

 

The sum of the first 48 leap years in this table from 1333 to 5774 equals: 5 x 153 x 227. In an earlier letter I shared that it will be 2368 days from Rosh Hashanah 5774 to 29 February 2020 (the 490^th leap day/year since the birth of Christ). 2368 plus 227 equals the 2520 days in seven prophetic years plus the additional 75 days in Daniel 12:11-12. This is a total of 2595 days. Note: 29 February 2020 will be 888 lunar cycles (Jewish months) since Israel was born again on 14 May 1948. 888 is the Greek gematria of JESUS.
