"If No Rapture On Christian Pentecost This Sunday Then Maybe....."

Dear John & Fellow Watchers:
 
According to the Jewish calendar the spring holy days ended May 15, 2013 ( http://www.chelm.org/jewish/calendar/may-2013.pdf ). They ran from the first day of Passover ( http://www.chelm.org/jewish/calendar/mar-2013.pdf  ) to Shavuot for a total of 50 days.
 
The late summer/early autumn holy days also run for 50 days. Elul 1 begins the season of repentance ( http://www.chelm.org/jewish/calendar/aug-2013.pdf  ) and culminates on Shmini Atzeret (http://www.chelm.org/jewish/calendar/sep-2013.pdf  ) for a total of 50 days. According to the above referenced timeline the 7 year tribulation could very well begin the very next day on Simchat Torah.
 
The autumn is definitely a time of harvest and I consider the resurrection & gathering of the saints a harvest. The 50 days can accommodate the various resurrection/rapture scenarios including the 40 days "sign of Jonah" warning between the resurrection and rapture as well as an all at once resurrection/rapture on the same day such as on Schmini Atzeret or Rosh Hashanah.

Note: There may not be a Psalm 83 war and the Gog/Magog war has a final fulfillment at the end of the millennium. The trib could very well start with Peace.
