Paul writes end 4166=start 4167 Adamic=4166.5 vernal.  The Lord is 63.65 years old, 4167-63-1=4103; so it's still ad 60, but late September up to the day before Chanukah.

o         Aft: 63/2 = 31.5 years prior = 4136 His Death on what should have been Passover had the Sanhedrin  intercalated to align with the Exodus 12 solar mandate.  So Paul measures factually:  vernal start 4136 = end 4135, then +31.5 = 4166.5 vernal = end 4166 Adamic = start 4167 Adamic, cute.  Paul thus writes in the 31^st year after the Lord's Death.  63-33 in the meter;  31^st year begins on 30^th birthday, so the Lord already had His 63^rd birthday.  He's still age 63 in first quarter of next year = 4167 Adamic = third quarter vernal 4166, pre-Chanukah, still ad 60.

 

o         Now Paul gets fancy.  Fore: 31.5 years later, is mid-Trib.  Again, measure factually: end 4200 vernal - 3.5 = 4196.5 vernal = end 4196 Adamic = latest, pre-Church scheduled mid-Trib start in Dan9:27.  So now 4196.5 - 31.5 = 4165 vernal start = 4165.5 Adamic.  Note the fiscal 'mirror' switch, vs. the aft formula: vernal value becomes the Adamic value, an equidistant 'pun'.  Moreover, now both values are -1 vs. aft formula results.  Thus Paul also writes in 33^rd year before Millennium = end 4200 - 4167 start.  33^rd year = 4167 Adamic.  So in the aft formula, he played on 63 – 33; but 'fore' plays on 33, both using 63/2.  Clever, huh.  Punning like this, is all over Bible.  Example, 1 Kings 1-6: David died having ruled all Israel as long as he'd ruled both Israel and Hebron, before he retired at age 70;  he spent his last 7 years, designing Temple Service (1Chron 22 – end). 

 

God literally orchestrates Time in equidistant, paired puns.  One is always stated, in Bible; the 'mirror' is elided.  (Man, once I saw this 'mirroring' rule back in May 2004, all Bible dates fit known history, like fine kid gloves. If I was young I'd write a dissertation on all these real-time 'mirrors' in Bible.)

 

'Not cute literary rhetoric, but real time:  7 fat then 7 lean mirrored in the middle of Joseph's 80-year tenure as vizier; unwittingly recorded, in Encyclopedia Britannica's 'Egypt, History of': 'vizier reclaimed the Fayyum depression' (Joseph, of course) at the very time Bible said (2190 FAF to 2270), resulting in huge crops and the nomarchs' ousting (end of feudalism); so everyone became Pharaoh's subject (yeah, you are a citizen of your country, NOT a serf).

Note how God mirrored the sevens' Time Containers, too: even as (1Kings 2) David later rules all Israel 33 years (prior to retiring, still King after that), and 7 years over Hebron.  Even as, Christ was allotted 40 years but died at age 33, and is still owed 7, the Trib.  It's literal time, not figurative.  So God isn't figurative, either.  He does figure, though:  in equating PAIRS.

 

So with Bible, always solve for a mirrored, 'equidistant x', as God's Timing always reflects a YES ANSWER to Psalm 90:15.

 

Will edit this piece later, once I again have time.

 

o         140/2 years prior, was 10 bc.  What's the pun?  Aha, probably Herod rededicating the Temple, but I can't find a scholarly site confirming 10 bc was dedication year; Josephus isn't clear enough.  Will give 10 bc date benefit of the doubt.  Original Dedication was 950 bc per 1Kings 9, so 940 yers later;  950 years, after 1^st Temple began construction (1Kings 6:1), and its construction started in 480x2, hahaha.  But what does this have to do with the letter's theme of freeing Mr. Useful aka Onesimus?  Other events, Drusus dies and Claudius is born, Caesarea is rebuilt by Herod, who perhaps in the same year, sent two of his sons to Rome for education.  So?  Maybe Paul plays on some other date which ends up having the same value as 140/2, as he did with the 63/2 'fore', above? 140 x 7 is 980 = 490x2.  Christ died on the 980^th anniversary of 1^st Temple Dedication.

o         140/2 years later, is 4236.  Centenary of His Death.

o         140 years prior, was 79 bc.  What's the pun?  Again, maybe Paul plays a math game on some other date.

o         175 is a tag on Moses' Psalm 90:9 (part of the Noahic testimony); and on the Magnificat's Luke 1:53 (adjusted for Varro by adding kai Miryam eipen, so her meter becomes 175).
