Imagine a line 18 inches long.  Each inch is 1 month of time.  The reason for this is the approximate 18 months from the first lunar eclipse at Passover, 2014 to the last eclipse at Tabernacles, 2015 (4 lunar eclipses (thus the term "tetrad") in 2014-15, at Passover and Tabernacles both years).  Now we are a little more than one month after the last eclipse.  So again imagine the line 18 inches long, and we are sitting right now (Nov. 6th) just a little more than 1 inch from that 18 inch line.  Now consider that as of YET there is no HUGE event to associate with these eclipses, so IF something HUGE happens VERY SOON, that BIG EVENT will be hung on this tetrad of eclipses.  So, it ain't over yet for this year!  Mid-November is the TWO MONTH SHIFT from Rosh Hashanah, which this year was at mid-September.  So, why is that important?  Consider that the Second Coming should be around Yom Kippur (the Day of Atonement) in the year that it occurs (based on Jesus fulfilling the spring Jewish feasts at His First Coming at the time of each feast with major events----He died on Passover, He rose on the Feast of First Fruits (now known as Easter), the Holy Spirit descended at Pentecost).  Considering Scripture (Matt. 24:21 & 22 and Rev. 8:12) that the Great Tribulation is literally shortened by one third (one third of the 3 1/2 years of the Great Tribulation), then one third of that is one year and TWO MONTHS.  Working backwards from the Second Coming in the year that it should occur at Yom Kippur, that would place the Rapture happening TWO MONTHS LATER than expected (because of the shortening of the Great Tribulation by one year and TWO MONTHS), and we would normally expect in any given year for the Rapture to be around Rosh Hashanah.  And this really fits Matt. 24:44 King James:  "At such an hour as ye think not (two months after Rosh Hashanah?), the Son of Man cometh."!  Most serious students of end time Bible prophecy expect the Rapture at Rosh Hashanah, not knowing about the "two month shift" in Scripture.

Thus from a scriptural standpoint mid-November looks VERY interesting!  And I ask the following question.  After the three previous lunar eclipse tetrads marking HUGE events (freedom for the Jews from European persecution (New World discovered), establishment of the State of Israel, and then capturing East Jerusalem), is it at all possible that THIS tetrad just passed would mark absolutely nothing?  Consider that the last tetrad of lunar eclipses prior to this one happened in 1967-68, and the next one is more than 500 years from now!  And consider the scriptural importance of Gen. 1:14, Joel 2:30, and Luke 21:25 that there would be signs in the skies, especially in the End Times!  So, we are sitting only just a little more than 1 inch off that 18 inch line.  The HUGE event could still happen, and I make the case SHOULD happen!

Here is a little further clarification.  What is after "freedom for the Jews from European persecution", establishment of the State of Israel, and capturing the true capitol of Israel, East Jerusalem?  In the logical order of things, the building of the Third Temple!  And for that to happen the Rapture MUST happen first!  Then the antichrist can step forward on the world stage, then the Daniel 9:27 covenant beginning the 7 year Tribulation Period, and then Third Temple construction begins.  Finally, November has been a most significant month for the Jewish people and Israel.  Nov. 2, 1917----the Balfour Declaration (the British allowed Jewish immigration into Palestine), Nov. 29, 1947----the U.N. Mandate for Palestine (allowing Israel to form a nation, which they did in May of 1948), mid-Nov. of 1977----President Anwar Sadat of Egypt flew to Israel and the "peace process" began, Nov. of 1987----the first Palestinian "Intifada" (uprising against Israel) began.  

Well, I cannot put this down any more concisely and I rest my case.  Now let's see what the Lord plans to do.  It ultimately is up to Him, and we can only conjecture, but the above is a reasonable theory based on Scripture.  And again I ask the question, after three tetrads of lunar eclipses on Jewish feast dates marking HUGE events for the Jewish people and Israel, could this most recent tetrad mark absolutely nothing??????!!!!!!!!  These tetrads are extremely rare over time!

Rochester the Rapture Rodent

P.S.  Why should we even bother considering the above?  Two huge scriptural reasons, and go look them up:  Revelation 1:3 and 2 Timothy 4:8!  We ARE to look forward to the Lord's coming, despite the fact that so many late in these End Times want to shove this topic "under the rug" and ignore it!  This is NOT what Scripture attests to!

P.P.S.  Here are the lunar eclipse tetrad years:

1493-94
1949-50
1967-68

2014-15

Next one:  more than 500 years from now!
