"Babylonian Chronicles", Ending 70 years?
A "Good" investigative "News", reporter, is trained to ask, 5 important questions.
Who: Identifies the subject, Judah.
What: Focuses on Desolation of Jerusalem and Captivity.
Where: Deportation of exiles to Babylon.
When: Is a complicated question.
Why: Becomes evident, that Violating Yehwah's Covenant Law, brings Judgment and Punishment.
Answering the question, When?
Archaeological evidence preserves records of empires, conquest, and victorious battles. Historians attempt to accurately establish dates that correspond to important events. Coordinating events with the Bible Will encounter difficulty, because historians are not theologians. Jewish rabbis and Christian scholars, also attempt to place Biblical chronology in agreement with established archaeological timeline. But, translation errors and preconceived religious beliefs, may neglect corroborating Scripture that is needed to validate exact dates. Jewish tradition, may also promote mistakes, that confuse Biblical chronology.
This Bible study begins by examining an obvious contradiction with in the biblical record of history.
Bible vs History?
The prophecy:
In Jeremiah 46:1-2; actually occurred in the (fourth year = 606-605 B.C...) of Nebuchadnezzar's reign over the territory of Judah. The correct reading of:
Jeremiah 46:1-2; is a prophetic warning, approximately one year (before = 605 B.C...); When the historical Battle at (Carchemish), becomes the location where Egypt and Assyria, were finally defeated by Nebuchadnezzar.
The following, corrected scriptural references, will help historians, synchronize corresponding dates, when establishing the biblical timeline. There is an obvious contradiction between:
2 Ch 35:20-21;
and
Jer 46:1-2;
Both seem to reference the same battle at (Carchemish) that occurred in 605 B.C...?
Proper study of scripture reveals that good king Josiah died in 612 B.C.., the year Babylon 1st conquered Nineveh.
Then Babylon conquered Judah in 609 B.C.. After their 2nd victory at Haran.
Later, Babylon's 3rd Battle, finally defeated Egypt and Assyria at(Carchemish) in 605 B.C...)
Nineveh or Carchemish?
2 Chronicles 35:20–21 (NASB95) — 20 After all this, when Josiah had set the temple in order, Neco king of Egypt came up to make war at (Carchemish?
(This battle was actually at Nineveh! In 612 B.C.., when Babylonian armies, conquered the Assyrian Capital of Nineveh, in only 3 months.. But pharaoh Neco, never arrived in time,on the Euphrates.)
That was when, Josiah went out to engage him. 21 But Neco sent messengers to him, saying, “What have we to do with each other, O King of Judah? I am not coming against you today but against the (house = Babylon) with which I am at war, and God has ordered me to hurry. Stop for your own sake from interfering with God who is with me, so that He will not destroy you.”
(Pharaoh Neco's, Battle with good king Josiah, delayed Neco's arrival at Nineveh. So, Pharaoh Neco, return to punish Judah, only three months later, 612-611 B.C...)
(3 months) Joahaz then (11 years) Jehoiakim
(Three months after good king Josiah died, then the pharaoh of Egypt removed Joahaz and put Jehoiakim as king of Judah.)
2 Chronicles 36:1–5 (NASB95) — 1 Then the people of the land took Joahaz the son of Josiah, and made him king in place of his father in Jerusalem. 2 Joahaz was twenty-three years old when he became king, and he reigned three months in Jerusalem. 3 Then the king of Egypt deposed him at Jerusalem, and imposed on the land a fine of one hundred talents of silver and one talent of gold. 4 The king of Egypt made Eliakim his brother king over Judah and Jerusalem, and changed his name to Jehoiakim. But Neco took Joahaz his brother and brought him to Egypt. 5 Jehoiakim was twenty-five years old when he became king, and he reigned (eleven years = 611-601 B.C...) in Jerusalem; and he did evil in the sight of the Lord his God.
(609 B.C...) First year of Nebuchadnezzar and Daniel
Daniel 1:1–3 (NASB95) — 1 In the (third year 609 B.C... of the reign of Jehoiakim king of Judah, Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon came to Jerusalem and besieged . 2 The Lord gave Jehoiakim king of Judah into his hand, along with some of the vessels of the house of God; and he brought them to the land of Shinar, to the house of his god, and he brought the vessels into the treasury of his god. 3 Then the king ordered Ashpenaz, the chief of his officials, to bring in some of the sons of Israel, some of the royal family and of the nobles (including Daniel),
Good king Josiah is missing from the archaeological evidence within history!
So history focuses on, Biblical genealogy of kings, preserveing the record, of Good king Josiah, Born 651 -Died 612 B.C...
2 Kings 22:1 (NASB95) — 1 Josiah was eight years old when he became king, and he reigned (thirty-one years = 612+31+8 =651 B.C... Born) in Jerusalem; and his mother’s name was Jedidah the daughter of Adaiah of Bozkath.
From, 8 years old, until the (13th year = 651-630 B.C...) of King Josiah's reign; Then add,(23 years = 608 B.C...)
(608 B.C...) 4th year of Jehoiakim, also completes the 1st year of Nebuchadnezzar
Jeremiah 25:1–3 (NASB95) — 1 The word that came to Jeremiah concerning all the people of Judah, in the (fourth year = 611-608 B.C...) of Jehoiakim the son of Josiah, king of Judah (that was the )first year =609-608 B.C...) of Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon), 2 which Jeremiah the prophet spoke to all the people of Judah and to all the inhabitants of Jerusalem, saying, 3 “From the (thirteenth year = 630 B.C...) of Josiah the son of Amon, king of Judah, even to this day, these (twenty-three years = 608 B.C... Is the 23rd year that followed , the 13th year, after 643-630 B.C... When Josiah became king) the word of the Lord has come to me, and I have spoken to you again and again, but you have not listened.
Jeremiah's Prophetic Warning!
Babylonian Dominion over Judah (70 years = 609-639 B.C...);
19 years later, Jerusalem and 1st Temple, Destroyed, then Desolation for (70 years = 590-520 B.C...)
Two separate 70 year Prophecies!
Jeremiah 25:11–12 (NASB95) — 11 ‘This whole land will be a desolation and a horror, and these nations will serve the king of Babylon seventy years. 12 ‘Then it will be when seventy years are completed I will punish the king of Babylon and that nation,’ declares the Lord, ‘for their iniquity, and the land of the Chaldeans; and I will make it an everlasting desolation.
Jeremiah 29:10 (NASB95) — 10 “For thus says the Lord, ‘When seventy years have been completed for Babylon, I will visit you and fulfill My good word to you, to bring you back to this place.
Jeremiah's Prophecy, 606-605B.C..., Egypt Defeated at Carchemish
Jeremiah 46:1–2 (NASB95) — 1 That which came as the word of the Lord to Jeremiah the prophet concerning the nations. 2 To Egypt, concerning the army of Pharaoh Neco king of Egypt, ( אֲשֶׁר־הָיָ֥ה = to - come -future tense) ), ( אֲשֶׁר־הִכָּ֗ה = to defeat - in 605 B.C...) by the Euphrates River at (Carchemish.
(Jeremiah's prophecy was made in the fourth year of) Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon, in (606-605 B.C... And corresponding to the sixth year of) Jehoiakim the son of Josiah, king of Judah:
Bible and History
Historian's timeline is not synchronized with biblical chronology. Also, translation errors and Jewish scholars, complicate Biblical accuracy, by discrediting the validity of the book of Daniel.
The year king Josiah died, corresponds with the available record of Babylon defeating of the Assyrian empire, in (612 B.C....). When, Babylon conquered Nineveh the capital of Assyria. That year, King Josiah, was killed by Neco pharaoh, during the battle at Mageddo. The delay prevented, pharaoh of Egypt from assisting Assyria's defense against, the Babylonian 3 months siege, that conquered Nineveh.
After,Good king Josiah died 612 B.C... Then his son Joahaz became king for only 3 months and then the Egyptian pharaoh imprisoned him in Egypt. In the 3rd year of King Jehoiakim, the Babylonian armies finally conquered the complete territory of Judea in 609 B.C... this is when, the sons of some Jewish nobles were taken into Babylon, this included Daniel. Nebuchadnezzar was also victorious, in 609 B.C... This Battle, was the second attempt by the Pharaoh of Egypt, to help a remnant of Assyria at Haran, pushback at Babylon. The final attempt, made by Egypt and Assyria occurred, at Carchemish, in 605 B.C... This is when, Nebuchadnezzar's victory, unified his empire, in the same year his father died.
The historical record of, Nebuchadnezzar forcing Judah under Babylonian dominion begins in 609 B.C... And Babylonian control would continue for 70 years until Cyrus the great conquered Babylon in 539 B.C...
Cyrus the Great
Isaiah 44:28 (NASB95) — 28 “It is I who says of Cyrus, ‘He is My shepherd! And he will perform all My desire.’ And he declares of Jerusalem, ‘She will be built,’ And of the temple, ‘Your foundation will be laid.’ ”
In the second year of Cyrus the great, a few Jewish people return to Jerusalem and begin laying the foundation for the temple restoration. But, the temple construction would be stopped, until the second year of Darius the great.
2 Chronicles 36:22–23 (NASB95) — 22 Now in the first year of Cyrus king of Persia—in order to fulfill the word of the Lord by the mouth of Jeremiah—the Lord stirred up the spirit of Cyrus king of Persia, so that he sent a proclamation throughout his kingdom, and also put it in writing, saying, 23 “Thus says Cyrus king of Persia, ‘The Lord, the God of heaven, has given me all the kingdoms of the earth, and He has appointed me to build Him a house in Jerusalem, which is in Judah. Whoever there is among you of all His people, may the Lord his God be with him, and let him go up!’ ”
Ezra 1:1–2 (NASB95) — 1 Now in the first year of Cyrus king of Persia, in order to fulfill the word of the Lord by the mouth of Jeremiah, the Lord stirred up the spirit of Cyrus king of Persia, so that he sent a proclamation throughout all his kingdom, and also put it in writing, saying: 2 “Thus says Cyrus king of Persia, ‘The Lord, the God of heaven, has given me all the kingdoms of the earth and He has appointed me to build Him a house in Jerusalem, which is in Judah.
Temple Reconstruction Delayed, until Darius
Ezra 4:4–5 (NASB95) — 4 Then the people of the land discouraged the people of Judah, and frightened them from building, 5 and hired counselors against them to frustrate their counsel all the days of Cyrus king of Persia, even until the reign of Darius king of Persia.
Ezra 4:24 (NASB95) — 24 Then work on the house of God in Jerusalem ceased, and it was stopped until the second year of the reign of Darius king of Persia.
Darius the Great, (520 B.C...)
Ezra 6:12 (NASB95) — 12 “May the God who has caused His name to dwell there overthrow any king or people who attempts to change it, so as to destroy this house of God in Jerusalem. I, Darius, have issued this decree, let it be carried out with all diligence!”
Ezra 6:14–15 (NASB95) — 14 And the elders of the Jews were successful in building through the prophesying of Haggai the prophet and Zechariah the son of Iddo. And they finished building according to the command of the God of Israel and the decree of Cyrus, Darius, and Artaxerxes king of Persia. 15 This temple was completed on the third day of the( month Adar = the month before Passover in the year 514 B.C...); it was the sixth year of the reign of King Darius.
(Theologians corrupt history, by erroneously claiming the first temple was destroyed between 587-586 and that the second temple reconstruction was completed between 517-516 B.C... Theologians deceptively create a 70 year gap that pretends to fulfill prophecy.
(609-539 B.C...) Babylonian 70 year Dominion
Then 19 years separation between
(590-520 B.C...) Jerusalem 70 year Desolation
2 Kings 24:17–18 (NASB95) — 17 Then the king of Babylon made his uncle Mattaniah king in his place, and changed his name to Zedekiah. 18 Zedekiah was twenty-one years old when he became king, and he reigned eleven years (601-590 B.C.) in Jerusalem; and his mother’s name was Hamutal the daughter of Jeremiah of Libnah.
2 Kings 25:1–2 (NASB95) — 1 Now in the (ninth year 591 B.C...) of Zedekiah's reign, on the tenth day of the tenth month, Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon came, he and all his army, against Jerusalem, camped against it and built a siege wall all around it. 2 So the city was under siege until the (eleventh year 590 B.C...) of King Zedekiah.
2 Kings 25:8–9 (NASB95) — 8 Now on the seventh day of the fifth month, which was the (nineteenth year 609-590 B.C...) of King Nebuchadnezzar, king of Babylon, Nebuzaradan the captain of the guard, a servant of the king of Babylon, came to Jerusalem. 9 He burned the house of the Lord, the king’s house, and all the houses of Jerusalem; even every great house he burned with fire.
There are two 70 year gaps, 609 to 539 and 590 to 520. The second 70 year gap, begins 19 years after Nebuchadnezzar conquered Judah in 609 B.C... Then in 590 B.C... Nebuchadnezzar destroyed Jerusalem and the temple. And exactly, 70 years later, Darius the great reconquered Babylon in 520 B.C...
Daniel and Darius
Daniel 9:1–2 (NASB95) — 1 In the first year of Darius the son of Ahasuerus, of Median descent, who was made king over the kingdom of the Chaldeans— 2 in the first year of his reign, I, Daniel, observed in the books the number of the years which was revealed as the word of the Lord to Jeremiah the prophet for the completion of the desolations of Jerusalem, namely, seventy years.
(It is important to carefully coordinate the Biblical testimony, so that the accuracy of historical records may be corrected.)
Jeremiah 29:10 (NASB95) — 10 “For thus says the Lord, ‘When seventy years have been completed for Babylon, I will visit you and fulfill My good word to you, to bring you back to this place.
Ezekiel, 30 + 40 = (70 years 520 B.C...)
(Most biblical scholars do not understand the importance of Ezekiel establishing the exact, "time = 30 years after 1st Temple destroyed". This represents the number of "years from 590 B.C...", that the final third group of Judeans have endured in Babylonian exile. This 30 year chronology, began with the desolation of Jerusalem.)
Ezekiel 1:1–2 (NASB95) — 1 Now it came about in the thirtieth year, on the fifth day of the fourth month, while I was by the river Chebar among the exiles, the heavens were opened and I saw visions of God.
ESL H 3168 יְחֶזְקֵאל [Yâchezqeʾl /yekh·ez·kale/] n pr m. From 2388 and 410; GK 3489; Three occurrences; AV translates as “Ezekiel” twice, and “Jehezekel” once. 1 son of Buzi and a priest and prophet; author of the book by his name; taken captive with Jehoiachin and exiled in Babylon where he prophesied, from (601-553?). Additional Information: Ezekiel or Jehezekel = “God strengthens”.
ESL H 941 בּוּזִי [Buwziy /boo·zee/] n pr m. The same as 940; GK 1001; AV translates as “Buzi” once. 1 father of Ezekiel (or ancestor). Additional Information: Buzi = “my contempt”.
(Ezekiel accompanied Jehoiachin (601 B.C.), when a second group of Judeans, were taken captive, into Babylonian exile. Then Ezekiel associates, the 30th year, 4 months, and 5 days, with the year (560 B.C.), after Jerusalem and the 1st Temple were destroyed. The second verse, will confirm Ezekiel's account, by coordinating his account with the exact time, that is five years (after 564 B.C.) when Jehoiachin was released from (37 years) in Babylonian exile. Jehoiachin’s exile, began, three months after his father King Jehoiakim died, in (601 B.C...)
2 Kings 23:36 (NASB95) — 36 Jehoiakim was twenty-five years old when he became king, and he reigned (eleven years 611-601 B.C...) in Jerusalem; and his mother’s name was Zebidah the daughter of Pedaiah of Rumah.
2 Kings 24:6 (NASB95) — 6 So Jehoiakim slept with his fathers, and Jehoiachin his son became king in his place.
2 Kings 24:8 (NASB95) — 8 Jehoiachin was eighteen years old when he became king, and he reigned (three months 601 B.C...) in Jerusalem; and his mother’s name was Nehushta the daughter of Elnathan of Jerusalem.
Then 37 years later, Jehoiachin was released from prison in (564 B.C...). "After" Jehoiachin’s release, 5 years later, Ezekiel establishes that 30 years of exile has been completed in (560 B.C...), from the time that Jerusalem and the first temple were destroyed in (590 B.C...). Translators do not correctly define The Word (After! - because the Hebrew "לְ" prefix: points towards or away from), Jehoiachin’s 37 year exile. Translators attempt to confuse Biblical accuracy of historical events and they corrupt scripture.)
Ezekiel 1:2 (On the fifth of the month in the fifth year (of? = after! -is the correct Hebrew "לְ" prefix: points towards or away from) King Jehoiachin’s exile,
(Ezekiel 1:1; chronicles, begins among the third group of exiles, that were taken captive to Babylon in 590 B.C... That was year Nebuchadnezzar destroyed Jerusalem and the temple.
Ezekiel 1:1-2; establishes that the 30th year, coincides with the fifth year after King Jehoiachin’s imprisonment in Babylon ended. In 601 B.C. Nebuchadnezzar captured King Jehoiachin. Then, 37 years later Evil-Merodach freed King Jehoiachin in 564 B.C… Evil-Merodach, began reigning in Babylon 2 years before his father Nebuchadnezzar died in 562 B.C…
Ezekiel 1:1; 2; commences five years later in 560 B.C…
Ezekiel 4:6; learns that 40 years of captivity remain for the third group of Judean exiles that were deported to Babylon when King Zedekiah's reign ended. From (590 -30 = 560), then (560 -40 = 520) precisely coincides with the first year of Darius the Great’s dominion over Babylon.
In Daniel 9:1; Darius' first year, then the following year, a second group of exiles return to Jerusalem and assisted in rebuilding the temple in (519-518 B.C.).
Daniel 9:2; pondered the 70 years of Judah’s exile,
2 Baskets of Figs
( Jeremiah 25:11; 12; ) Daniel may have considered that 2 prophetic events are revealed within a 19 year separation between the 2 baskets of figs envisioned by:
Jeremiah 24:1; 2; 3; 4; 5; 6; 7; 8; .
Both, Daniel and Ezekiel, were inspired by their childhood training. Daniel and Ezekiel, grew up during good king Josiah's, spiritual revival of Judah's, "Covenant" with the Yehwah Elohe of israel. Daniel was approximately 10 years old, when taken captive to Babylon, in (609 B.C.). Ezekiel may have been 20-30 years old, and a young priest, when taken captive to Babylon, in (601 B.C.). )
Daniel 1:1; 2; in(609 B.C.) Daniel is among the 1st Group of good figs deported to Babylon, That was The first year of Nebuchadnezzar’s dominion over Jehoiakim king of Judah.
Ezekiel 40:1; in (601 B.C.) Ezekiel accompanied the remaining 2nd Group of good Figs, that went into exile with Jehoiachin the son of Jehoiakim king of Judah.
Later Ezekiel 1:1; 2; in (560 B.C.) The 30th year after Jerusalem and Temple destruction. Ezekiel's prophetic announcements, are mysterious revelation of Yehwah Elohe's, past and future, judgments against, the remaining rotten figs, that are the third group of exiles, of Judah that were deported to Babylon from Jerusalem in 590 B.C…), at the end of King Zedekiah's reign.
2 Kings 25:27–28 (NASB95) 27Now it came about in the (thirty-seventh year = 601-564 B.C...) of the exile of Jehoiachin king of Judah, in the twelfth month, on the twenty-seventh day of the month, that Evil-merodach king of Babylon, in (564 B.C.)the year that he became king, released Jehoiachin king of Judah from prison;
28and he spoke kindly to him and set his throne above the throne of the kings who were with him in Babylon.
Ezekiel 1:1; 2; prophetic vision, 5 years later (560 B.C...) 40 years captivity remain until, (Darius = 520 B.C...)
Ezekiel 4:6 (NASB95)6“When you have completed these, you shall lie down a second time, but on your right side and bear the iniquity of the house of Judah; I have assigned it to you for forty days, a day for each year.
Chronology of Ezekiel's TimeLine
Ezekiel 1:1-2; 8:1; and 40:1; surprising revelation of the past. Ezekiel focuses on 2 memorial events to establish the historical accuracy of his prophetic writing. Ezekiel 1:1-2; coordinates the year of the Jerusalem Temple destruction in (590 B.C.), with the year that begins Jehoiachin's exile in (601 B.C.).
Ezekiel 40:1; appears to verify, that Ezekiel accompanied Jehoiachin into exile, in (601 B.C.).
Ezekiel 40:1; coordinates the 14th year ( 590 - 14 = 576 B.C.) after Jerusalem Temple destruction, is also the 25th year after Jehoiachin was taken into exile (601 - 25 = 576 B.C.).
Also, Ezekiel 8:1; is the 6th year after, Jehoiachin was freed from prison, in (564 - 6 = 559 B.C.). Ezekiel 8:1; has just completed Eze 4:5-6; (390 + 40 = 430 days or 1 year and 65 days) of bondage that began immediately after Eze 1:1-2;... When, Ezekiel's prophetic Record begins, in the 4th monk and 5th day of the 5th year after Jehoiachin was freed from prison, in (564 - 5 = 560 B.C.). So, Ezekiel 8:1; in (559 B.C.), is the 6th year 6th month and 10th day after Jehoiachin is freed from prison.
2 Kings 24:8; 17; 18; Ezekiel is a priest and possibly 30 years old, in (601 B.C.) When he accompanied Jehoiachin and the second group of exiles into Babylonian captivity. And between (601-590 B.C.) zedekiah became king of Judah, and he reigned 11 years.
2 Kings 25:1; 2; 8; 9; in the 10th and 11th year of King Zedekiah's reign, between (591-590 B.C.) Nebuchadnezzar's siege against Jerusalem, completely destroyed the city and Temple.
Ezekiel 40:1; Prophetic vision of future Temple restoration in the Kingdom of Yehwah Elohe. Ezekiel's vision occurred, in the 14th year after Jerusalem's desolation (590 B.C.), and establishes (576 B.C.) And confirms Ezekiel was among the Second group of captives; by stating that (576 B.C.) Is also(our 25th year of exile), that began in the year (601 B.C.). Ezekiel was a priest and possibly 30 years old, When Jehoiachin king of Judah and the remaining good basket of Figs Were deported to Babylon.
Ezekiel 43:3; Ezekiel remembers a vision, of Yehwah Elohe, that occurred years earlier, in (590 B.C.). This vision, in the year, that Jerusalem and the temple, was destroyed, is also a reference of remembrance in Ezekiel 8:2; 3; 4; 5; 6; 9:1; 2; 3; 4; 5; 10:1; 2; 3; 4;...
Ezekiel 40:1-47:1; in the year (576 B.C.), prophetic vision of future restoration of Jerusalem, Temple, and promised land, restored to Israel.
Ezekiel 1:1; 2; in (560 B.C.) the 5th year, after Jehoiachin king of Judah, was released from prison. Ezekiel is probably more than 70 years old.
Ezekiel 4:6; Ezekiel physically portrays, 40 more years of bondage, before 70 years of Jerusalem's desolation, Will be completed in the year (520 B.C.).
Ezekiel 8:1; in (559 B.C) the 6th year, after Jehoiachin, was freed from prison. Ezekiel has completed the (390 + 40 = 1 year 65 days) of bondage that portrays Israel and Judah's remaining years of captivity
Ezekiel 8:2; 3; 4; 5; 6; 9:1; 2; 3; 4; 5; 10:1; 2; 3; 4; Ezekiel remembers the vision of, Yehwah Elohe, when Jerusalem and Temple, was destroyed in (590 B.C.).
Ezekiel 11:4; 5; 6; 7; 8; 9; 12; 14; 15; 16; 17; 18; 19; 20; 21; 22; 23; 24; 25; 12:24; 25; 26; 27; 28; Ezekiel reminds the exiles in Babylon, that their sinfulness has brought about their captivity. Ezekiel also prophetically promises that Israel will be restored to the promised land.
Ezekiel 20:1; 2; in (558 B.C.) the 7th year, after Jehoiachin, was freed from prison. Ezekiel continues reminding Judah and Israel, of the past and future prophetic judgments.
Ezekiel 24:1; 2; 16; 24; in (556 B.C.) the 9th year, after Jehoiachin, was freed from prison. Ezekiel memorializes the month King Nebuchadnezzar laid siege against Jerusalem in (591 B.C.). This remembrance, becomes associated with the (556 B.C.) tragedy, when Ezekiel endured the sorrow of his wife's Death, as a metaphor of Yehwah Elohe, grieving over the desolation of Jerusalem.
Ezekiel 30:1; 29:1; 31:1; 32:1; between (555-553 B.C.), that is the 10th, 11th, and 12th year, after Jehoiachin, was freed from prison. Ezekiel pronounces judgments against, satan and all enemies, of Yehwah Elohe's Covenant Kingdom.
Ezekiel 37:1; 2; 3; 4; 5; 6; 11; 12; 13; 14; prophetic vision of dry bones and the promised future restoration of all Israel and Judah.
Ezekiel 39:1; 2; 3; 4; 17; 18; 19; 20; 21; Rev 9:13; 14; 15; 16; 19:17; 18; 19; 20; 21; 22; this is the 1st Battle against, Gog and Magog, at the ending of the 3 1/2 years of tribulations. When, Yehwah Elohe, returns for the Battle, on the great day of the Lord.
Ezekiel 38:1; 2; 14; 15; 16; 22; 23; Rev 20:7; 8; 9; This is the 2nd Battle against, Gog and Magog, at the ending, of the 1st 1000 years, of Yehwah Elohe's Kingdom on earth.
Ezekiel 39:22; 23; 24; 25;26; 27; 28; 29 finally, Ezekiel 37:1; 2; 3; 4; 5; 6; 11; 12; 13; 14; prophecy of the dry bones of Israel, will be fulfilled. When, Yehwah Elohe, opens their graves, and the Holy spirit is poured out on all flesh, during the second resurrection.
(this is the correct Final ending of Ezekiel's Book of prophecy.)
(Eze 40:1; chronology of Ezekiel's vision, that occurred 16 years before Eze 1:1; 2; (560 B.C.). In the "25th year = 601 - 25 = 576 B.C... When Jehoiachin king of Judah, is still in Babylonian prison. Ezekiel confirms the date "576 B.C... By stating that it is also the 14th year after, Jerusalem and the Temple, were destroyed in 590 - 14 = 576 B.C...)
Ezekiel 40:1 (NASB95) — 1 In the twenty-fifth year of our exile, at the beginning of the year, on the tenth of the month, in the fourteenth year after the city was taken, on that same day the hand of the Lord was upon me and He brought me there.
Babylonian Chronicles and 70 Years
(After 37 years, Jehoiachin king of Judah, is released from prison, by Evil-Merodach King of Babylon, in 564 B.C...)
(Evil-Merodach became king of Babylon in (564 B.C.) 2 years before Nebuchadnezzar died in (562 B.C.). Historians are not certain if Evil-Merodach continued as king until 556 B.C.), when Belshazzar became king and ruled until Cyrus the great conquered Babylon in (539 B.C.). Many Jewish scholars discredit Daniel as a book of fiction and historians misunderstand the prophetic accuracy of the events depicting kings and empires.)
(The Biblical proof, for this series of events, is established by the accuracy of prophetic revelation and the historical records of the authors within scripture. The exact timing of (Cyrus 539 B.C...) and later (Darius 520 B.C...), coincide with the completion of the 70 year prophecy, and the Babylonian defeat, and the Jewish remnant returning to Jerusalem. I trust Biblical accuracy, and carefully examine historical evidence in relationship to Yehwah's revelation.)

The Jubilee announcement on 26 A.D. Is an important focal point for establishing Biblical appointed Times. Several scriptural clues must first be examined to identify the year of Messiah’s birth on the Festival of Tabernacle’s 5 B.C..…
Biblical proof may be established by 2 or 3 trustworthy witnesses.
( Dt 19:15; Isa 43:10; 12; Mt 18:16; Heb 12:1; Rev 11:3; )
Amos 3:7 (NASB95) — 7 Surely the (Lord God = Adoni Yehwah) does nothing Unless He reveals His secret counsel To His servants the prophets.
Witness 1. Herod the great died approximately between January -February early in 4 B.C…
a. Luke 1:4; 2:1-5; Mt 2:13-19; Herod attempted to murder the newborn messiah in the region of Bethlehem, shortly after the festival of Tabernacle’s in 5B.C… any attempt of assuming and AlterNet date Will be proven incorrect by the following historical relevant evidence.
Witness 2. Tiberius enforced is military dominion over Jerusalem between 9-11 A.D. And by 12 A.D. He became Cesar over the entire Roman empire, 2 ears before Augustus Caesar died.
a. Luke 3:1; 23;Tiberius Cesar Authority over Jerusalem would reach its 15th year in 26 A.D… and corresponds with Messiah’s 30th birthdate.
B. Luke 4:16-21; Yeshua reads Isaiah 61:1-2; on the Sabbath of Atonement 26 A.D…
c.

d. Leviticus 25:8-11; Messiah fulfilled the required jubilee announcement, in the 49th year of the land sabbath cycle, at the appointed time on atonement 26 A.D…
e. Luke 4:21; 23-25; Messiah makes two prophetic statements on Atonement 26 A.D… By comparing Himself to Eliyeh, He precisely predicted His 3 1/2 year Ministry, that would be completed on Passover 30 A.D…
John 2:1-4; 11-17; Also,Yeshua first miracle did not occur until the wedding in Cana, near Capernaum, shortly before the spring Passover in Jerusalem27 A.D…
Witness 3. Herod the Great began his Temple expansion project in Jerusalem between 20-19 B.C. And the work was completed46 years later between 26-27 A.D…
a. John 2:16-21; In the 50th year of the land Sabbath cycle, Messiah powerfully commencees His Jubilee Ministry, 14 days before Passover 27 A.D. by driving out the merchants from the temple court.

c. 3 years after Passover 27 A.D., Messiah’s Temple of His body would be resurrected on the third day after His 30 A.D. Passover crucifixion.
Witness 4. Daniel 9:24-25; prophecy 7x 69 =483 years until messiah’s appointed arrival. Subtract 26 A.D. From 483n= 457 B.C.
a. Ezra 7:6-10; In the 7th year = 458-457 B.C. Ezra was authorized bye Artaxerxes King of Persia to organize temple worship in Jerusalem.
b. Also, subtract 26 A.D. From 490 = 464 a Jubilee year that occurred after Artaxerxes became king between 465-464 B.C…
Witness 5. It is possible to calculate all future and past Jubilee celebrations from Messiah’s prophetic Atonement announcement of Isaiah 61:1-2; fulfillment in 26 A.D…( Lk 4:21; )
A. Jubilee year 513 B.C. Occurred the year after the second temple construction was completed 514 B.C. During the reign of Darius the great

Witness 6. Leviticus 25:8-11; Biblical law requires that a series of 7 x 7 year land sabbaths be counted to reach 49 years, and then, in the 49th year on Atonement the Jubilee would be announced. The following 50th year Will begin the Jubilee and also becomes year 1 of the next 7 years that repeat the unbroken series of land Sabbaths.
A. Jubilee year 1938 A.D. Herbert W Armstrong begins the worldwide church of God, the year after he departed from the church of God seventh day in 1937 A.D…
B. Jubilee year 1987 A.D. The year after mr. Armstrong died in 1986 and completing a 49 year work of declaring the “good News” of the kingdom restoration to the whole world.
Witness 7. Multiply 40 x 49 = 1960 then add 26 A.D. To reach the year 1986 when the last atonement would announce the 1987 jubilee year. The year 1987 also began the cycle of seven year land Sabbaths. The 7th your land sabbath is often followed by a tragic national punishment caused by disobedience. Every 7 years the intensity of punishment may increase according to the sins of the people.
Leviticus 26:12-35; punishment increases every seven years.
a. On Christmas Eve 1994 the worldwide church of God officially died.
b. Seven years later 2001, a terrorist attack struck the world trade center.
c. Then 2008 witness the stock market crash.
d. 2014-15 witnessed four consecutive blood moon warning signs that began the 21 years of Jacob’s trouble.
e. Approximately on atonement 2015, the Catholic pope announced is 2016 year of mercy to counterfeit the biblical jubilee. Some people may assume that 2016 is a Jubilee year. Another mistake is made by incorrectly following the seven year land sabbath cycles. Also, failure to properly some up Biblical genealogy, causes Rabbis to incorrectly calculate that the year 2022 is exactly 5782 years from Adam’s creation.
f. 2022 witnesses, a dramatic political, economic, moral, and judicial decay, in the U.S... Without repentance, honor, or respect, for the day of Atonement.
(behind the scene, The Catholic pope is pursuing A universal peace agreement between Christianity, islam, and Judaism that should culminate by the year 2028. )

g. Daniel 9: 27; 2029, the final 7 years begin with a peace agreement, Centered in Jerusalem with a restored Temple and sacrificial system.
h. The next Jubilee year Will occur 2036 ,and completes exactly 6000 years from the Time of Adam’s creation. The appointed Biblical Festivals were ordained to reach their fulfillment before the 1000 year Jubilee begins the Kingdom of messiah on earth. The conquering messiah Will arrive on Trumpets 2035 andannounce the Jubilee 10 days later on Atonement.

For additional Proof: please examine the Passover calculations for 30 A.D...
The 30 A.D. Passover on a Wednesday evening, occurred immediately after Tuesday sunset. There is one error, if observing, the first sighting of a crescent moon, that occurs after the new moon conjunction. The new moon conjunction actually begins the first day of each month. So then, the 30 A.D. Passover would occur exactly on Wednesday.
