I'm a proponent of a Wednesday Crucifixion. I have a calendar that shows both 30 AD and 31 AD as a Wednesday Crucifixion. The person that made the calendar seams pretty solid on his reason for accuracy.

The timeline in 21st Century Revelation is ~3974 BC-3027 AD based on an early birth and early exit. Always allow 7 years for a margin of error.<br /><br />Jewish Calendar Errors<br /><br />The Jewish year 5781 is based on Rabbi Yose ben Halafta’s work Seder Olam. It is short by about 216 years. That makes it ~5997 AM. Then add 7 years of Tribulation to be ~6004 so the Roman calendar is off by ~3 years. <br /><br />1. 5 Years - Abraham was 75 not 70 years old when he received God’s covenant (Genesis 12:4).<br />2. 45 Years - The 480 years starts at Joshua as judge to Solomon’s temple. The 40 years in the wilderness and 5 years Joshua as conquering the Promised Land are not included (1 Kings 6:1).<br />3. 166 Years - There are 656 years from the destruction of the first (587-586 BC) and second temples (70 AD) not 490 years. For 207 years, Media-Persia ruled Judea. The Jewish chronology gives fifty-two years based on Daniel 11:1-2. Daniel lists 4 of 12 kings of Media-Persia. Nehemiah 12:10-11 lists more high priests and infers a longer period.<br /><br />Roman Calendar Errors<br /><br />The Roman calendar based on James Ussher's chronology starts at 4004 BC. It is off by about 30 years.<br /><br />1. Time from the Abrahamic covenant to the Exodus is 430 years with 215 in Canaan and 215 in Egypt. Slavery lasts ~120 years (Exodus 12:40-41).<br />2. Years of Eli, Samuel, Saul and Philistines overlap. Eli died when the Ark of the Covenant was taken by the Philistines and returned to Jerusalem 20 years 7 months later by King David. Saul did not reign forty years (1 Samuel 4:18, 1 Samuel 7:2, 1 Samuel 13:1).<br />3. Birth of Christ must fall after Augustus' census and before Herod the Great's death (Luke 2:1-2, Matthew 2:1).<br />4. There are questions when Augustus started his rule (31-27 BC) and if Tiberius was co-regent (10-14 AD)(Luke 3:1-2).<br />5. Jesus was conceived during Hanukkah and born in Tishri in ~7-1 BC. Two possible dates are:<br /> 7 BC – Tabernacles – October 5/6 – Jupiter Saturn triple conjunction in May, October, December.<br /> 3 BC – Trumpets – September 10/11 – Jupiter Regulus triple conjunction in September, February, May.<br />6. The Star of Bethlehem and wise men occurs over a year later.<br /> 5 BC – ~Pentecost – May/June 5 BC – Comet as the star.<br /> 2 BC – ~Hanukkah – December 2 BC – Jupiter as the star.<br />7. Jesus' ministry lasts 2½ or 3½ years. John lists Passover (John 2:23, John 6:4, John 11:5) but an unidentified feast (John 5:1).<br />8. God's calendar aligns to creation (1 AM) and redemption (4001 AM).<br /><br /> Bible Chronology<br /><br />Jewish Year Person/Event<br />1 Adam<br />1000 Noah<br />2000 Abraham<br />3000 Solomon<br />4000 Cross<br /> Church Age Begins<br />5000 Church Age<br />~5994 Church Age Ends<br /> Rapture (1st of Tishri) <br />? Gap (10 Days or Years)<br />5994 Confirmation of the Covenant<br /> Tribulation Begins<br />6000 Tribulation Ends<br /> Second Coming (10th of Tishri)<br /> Millennium Begins (15th of Tishri)<br />7000 Millennium Ends<br /> New Heaven/Earth<br /><br />Jesus Christ was born ~7-1 BC and died ~27-33 AD, then ~2027-2033 could be the Second Coming of Jesus Christ. So ~2019-2026 is a possible seven year rapture window as God prepares the world for the seven years of Tribulation. Since we are at the end of the Church Age, watch for Jesus and pray.<br /><br />Abdicate.net has a great Bible chronology (3977 BC-2025 AD) that lists verses, explains complicated years and ends after the year 2000.<br /><br />Linear Chronology of Man According to the Scriptures<br />https://www.abdicate.net/chron.aspx<br /><br /><br />Robert Cook<br />TrumpetsTX<br />www.21stcenturyrevelation.com<br />Robert Cookhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08461318367053607964noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-923571518579487836.post-12249968639337385902020-09-17T11:31:19.414-05:002020-09-17T11:31:19.414-05:00Oh, and I hope you didn't mind that I pulled s...Oh, and I hope you didn't mind that I pulled some pictures from a couple of your articles.

Your daring to take the Bible as God's Word, including in the prophetic parts, has been a source of great encouragement and inspiration to me for a good while now. So, thank you! <br /><br />And yes, I did feel that the Holy Spirit was upon me as I gave that message. I had been discouraged the last couple of days before, and I had second-guessed giving that message. On Sunday morning, I happened to get a voicemail from Brad letting me know that he was praying for me, and that made me hit my knees and give it to our Lord. After that, I just felt His peace. Thanks so much for sharing the message and for all that you do at Unsealed.

I too have come to be "satisfied" to rough it out adding 80 years to 1948 but decided that 2027 would be the *earliest* for the Second Coming and 2020 the *earliest* for the harpazo. (Earliest is somewhat of a relative term and does not imply boxing God into any scenario). I have been compelled that 2027 could fall on a Jubilee of years that include the acceptable year of the Lord. Perhaps 2028 could as well? I have not modelled this as of yet but...<br /><br />Yes, other data points like the decree to rebuild, etc, are elusive and difficult to pin-down. Only the Father has such answers in absolute. We do not neither should we. After-all, we are not He are we?!! I equate that with knowing what your Christmas presents are before they get wrapped and put under the tree!<br /><br />Soon we shall know. It is enough for us to remain steadfast and faithful. Constantly looking to and pointing others to Christ. In Christ is our faith, hope, identity and Love. Those are very real and now! There is nothing elusive about His Love. It is present and persistent.<br /><br />As the Spirit teaches us through Paul, <br /><br />9 For we know in part and we prophesy <br />in part, <br /><br />10 but when the perfect comes, the <br />partial will pass away.<br /><br />(1 Corinthians 13:9-10 ESV)<br /><br /><br />Considering all that Paul was shown while on the road to Damascus, that says a lot! I long for that Day too.<br /><br />Keep looking UP!Pastor Richhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09311564658668497654noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-923571518579487836.post-26379337492507364142020-09-15T21:34:38.211-05:002020-09-15T21:34:38.211-05:00YES!

Frankly, I was "satisfied" to rough it out adding 80 years to 1948 & deciding the 2nd coming is 2028 & rapture 2021. To me 2028 could be 2000 years after Christ declared (reading from Isaiah per Luke) the acceptable year of the Lord. I have settled for this only because other data points like the decree to rebuild, etc. are elusive to pin down. I would love to have more clarity.suttonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08287356441416439867noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-923571518579487836.post-45668586143584965752020-09-15T17:05:19.268-05:002020-09-15T17:05:19.268-05:00MODELLING THE DAYS

Building that into a spreadsheet model I get an end date of Friday, April 3, 33 AD -- the same day as Rick Larson for the Day of the Cross.<br /><br />This model does not convert for calendars -- it only counts days in a seven-day week model and is subject to further verification but this is the initial reading. The model automatically handles no year zero.<br /><br />Independent verification is encouraged.Pastor Richhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09311564658668497654noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-923571518579487836.post-85349641159187180632020-09-15T16:30:16.344-05:002020-09-15T16:30:16.344-05:00Thank you Pastor Michael.

Accordingly, Ken indicates that the current Hebrew calendar is wrong!<br /><br />I have continued to examine this question as time permits but feel more compelled by the witness of the Great Sign of Revelation 12. That combined with (Genesis 6:3), (Psalm 90:10), the birth of the modern State of Israel and a host of other Scriptural pin-points are (IMHO) required to attempt to model the Day of the Cross.<br /><br />Even so, we are attempting to pin-point a target across a handful of years across calendars that are suspect at best.<br /><br />This is an ongoing personal study and may require a calendar that exists outside of those offered. I do have a calendar based on Sabbaths beginning with Creation Week that may prove more accurate but have had limited time to dig on that as of yet.

Those who figure thusly do have to convert from the Jewish calendar to Gregorian. So the question remains: WHAT IS THE MATH USING THE 457 BC DECREE AS IT DATES THE CRUCIFIXION per Daniel's 69 weeks?suttonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08287356441416439867noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-923571518579487836.post-61113319561434569202020-09-15T09:08:16.993-05:002020-09-15T09:08:16.993-05:00Jenny, thank you for sharing that.

Yes, certain copies of Josephus state that Herod died in 4 BC while others are printed that Herod died in 1 BC. The oldest copies seem to state 1 BC. Other evidence also support a 1 BC death.<br /><br />I wonder if Rabbi Joseph ben Akiba may have influenced Josephus or later printings of Josephus' writings. This is an avenue of research that is wide open. Authors and researchers like Barry Setterfield and Rick Larson have a wealth of research and writing on the topic -- more than enough to dig into your own study.<br /><br />I have been in the camp of a 9/11/3 BC conception of Christ but am researching a 9/11/3 BC birth of Christ. Both have merits and both are worthy of exploration.<br /><br />Happy hunting!<br /><br /><br />PRPastor Richhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09311564658668497654noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-923571518579487836.post-31434853900245733782020-09-14T16:03:27.255-05:002020-09-14T16:03:27.255-05:00Great job again, Gary.
