both in Bible and post-Bible. All worksheet dates are taken solely
from Bible; no astrology, astronomy, or extra-Biblical 'sources'. Just the dates as Bible gives them, in SOLAR
years. Lunar accounting is a Jewish practice;
it's wrong, and many Jews know this;
Bible's years are always based on birthdays, from Adam forward. God bid Israel use a solar year, Exodus 12. So the xls Col G (in yellow) dates tally to
Bible.
o
Timeline
Explanation for
GeneYrs.xls and Mirroring.htm: /TenWaysThisTimelineDiffers.doc. It includes an explanation of scholar errors
which keep everyone in the dark about Bible's extreme accuracy, i.e., Bible
never claims a human king's
decree in Daniel 9:25; Bible never uses lunar
years; scholars ignore 1Kings 6:1's
pointed advertisement of David's death at age 77, not 70. The doc also shows the accounting
relationship between 70 and 50 on its page 15, which sets precedent for
'sabbatical years' in the Law; the same
math, is crucial to seeing how Paul crafts and 'nests' his own meter.
o
How
we can prove from Bible, exactly when the Lord was born and died; and how we can prove that between His Arrest and
Crucifixion, there were FOUR DAYS, not one: /PassPlot.htm
. God designed Israel's calendar around the Christ, just as Hebrews 1:2 says,
in Greek (mistranslated). There's no
excuse for our centuries of lazy disinformation.
o
Exodus, how the Bible's date (1440 bc) obviously dovetails with history we know: /Exodate.htm

/MatthewMeterR.pdf
; or /MatthewMeterR.doc
, if you have Bibleworks fonts to read it (freely downloadable at http://www.bibleworks.com/fonts.html
). Matthew starts the NT dating
convention: years from latest Bible book, and years from Christ's Age. So Matthew dates his book as 427 years after
Malachi, 33 years after Christ's birth, 476 years after Nehemiah went to Jerusalem. Thus Christ dies at START
of 62nd week of Daniel 9:26, not at its end, as originally scheduled
in Daniel 9:26.

o
Luke's cover letter meter to

happens to be the same as years from Matthew's Gospel
(35 years later). NT writers
dateline in years-from the latest Bible book, or via Christ's Age, often using
both. Matthew started that
trend. So by using Christ's Age, often
both rules are met. Luke's Gospel,
actually starts in Luke 1:5-7,
Gospel meter of 56, the Lord's 56th year; also tags Matthew 56 years
from the end of Matthew 1. James was written
the same year as Luke; but Paul wrote between Matthew and Luke; I've not yet parsed all Paul's
letters, for datelines.

1John
Revelation
Bible
in both explicit text and in meter, continually tracks the doctrine below. Yet you wouldn't know this doctrine existed,
unless you talked to Jews about their 'Ages' doctrine, or you plotted Bible's own dates, from Adam to Christ -- NOT using lunar years, NOT using 'outside'
estimates (no astronomy or astrology, no Eusebius, Ussher, or other
hoary head's errant tallies). Blatant use in Daniel 9, though, should alert you
to its existence. For if there was a set
time for the Temple, there must be an
underlying doctrine about setting time.
So here it is, in gist. In later
sections, you'll see how John as indeed all Bible writers, applies the
doctrine, via 'sevening' meter. Basic
videos orient you to the math, at http://www.vimeo.com/channels/howgodorchestratestime
.
· Time
is a LOAN. So it must be 'paid' by
someone voting for God. Else, TIME ENDS.
·
This LOAN is in
specific units, each with its own voting 'audience' and purpose.
·
First Unit, 490 years, during which
at least ONE BELIEVER must spiritually SUPERMATURE. Else, Time Ends.
Per Bible, Adam first supermatured, indicated by the 'present' of his son
Seth (=Appointed-to-Carry-the-Name). Genesis 5 is a roster of who Supermatured. It's designed to track
Time Grants Met. Sons' births are
TIMED; when you crunch the math you
learn, for example, 490 years are between Seth's birth and Enoch's; Jared supermatured at the last minute. (Age
rounding might cause a 1-2 year math variance.)
Another 490, between the births of Shem and Isaac.
· Second Unit is a 70, following the 490 if it successfully completed (someone
supermatured during 1st Unit). During this 70, believers en masse Must Vote To Learn God. The 'mass', can be as small as one (i.e.,
Noah or Moses, who each voted during his own 70). Else, Time
Ends for those who didn't vote.
(Hence the Flood.)
· Third Unit, is another
490, following the 70, if the latter successfully
completed. Again, at least one believer must spiritually supermature. Else, Time Ends.
·
Unit Four, the
Sum: 1050 (490+70+490), constitutes
God's basic 'House' of Time. It 'funds'
the ability of unbelievers to Vote To Be Saved.
Gospel is always the same
in any time period: you BELIEVE in the Future Savior Who Will Pay For Your Sins
(aka Messiah, in
Hebrew):
and thus you are saved from Hell and to Heaven.. forever.
· So notice Unit
Four, the 1050 is also constructed of 50's: there
are 21 of them.
So, 1000+50 constitutes twenty 50's, plus one. (Hence the term 'millennium' in a
generic sense. Really, 1000+50, not
1000. But in shorthand, 1000.)
·
So Unit Five,
is a special unbeliever-voting
window during the last 50 years of the 1050. Notice how
it 'rides on top of' the last 490 in a 1050, thus signifying that unbeliever votes depend on believers, voting. This is precedence for the Mosaic Law's sabbatical
years, Pentecost and Jubilee. For the math on how the 70 'buys' the 50, see
page 15 in /TenWaysThisTimelineDiffers.doc
.
· So the 1000 is a 'civilization' unit, with a '50' at the end;
so the 'Time
House' of 1050 contains both believers and unbelievers, each with a TIME
promise and a TIME warning, if they don't vote for God.
· TIME ENDS for those who don't vote for God. This is precedence
for the sudden-death nature of the Rapture.
·
For the
Millennium was predicted to arrive in the year 4200 from Adam's Fall, ever since the Exodus (and
maybe prior, I can't yet prove what prior knowledge, of a 2nd 2100). The first two units ran 2100 years, for the
Gentiles. The second 2100 was for the
Jews. Jews today even know this, but they account
2000 each, not 2100. And they
use a bad calendar, patterned after the Seder
Olam Rabbah. Google on that
term.
·
Messiah was
SCHEDULED to die 57 years before the end of the second 2100;
hence when the Jews rejected Him,
there was no more time left. There was no more time left, because
Abraham matured EARLY, so that 57 was 'owed' the Gentiles. (Again, this was encoded into the
Mosaic Law as Passover+Pentecost, Jubilee+Trib, mirrors.)
·
Technically, Abraham supermatured in the year Noah's 490-year Time Grant,
ran out. That was year 2046 from
Adam. Rounded, the value is 54
(2100-2046). Really, it's 53.5
years. An extra 3.5-year piece is added,
probably precedented
from Noah, who entered the Ark 57 days after his birthday. I'm not yet sure why that is precedent. Its character changes
to David's being crowned at Hebron 3.5 years early, but over all Israel, 7
years later.
·
So there is No
Time Left to Israel, if she doesn't accept Messiah when He comes On Time. (This might explain the origin of
preterism. If one only looks at the fact
Israel ran out of time, one can falsely conclude that the remainder 'passed on'
to Church. But Bible's promises to
Abraham, Moses, David are unconditional, so are still future. The Last David, inherited them all, Isaiah
53:12. So there is a future for Israel, which Church Bridges to Preserve, and
fronts; ergo, the unpredictable pre-Trib
Rapture.)
· Psalm 90's meter, recorded all
this; Isaiah 53 picked up the meter
timeline where Moses left off; Isaiah
updated the Advent timeline, since David had been born and died; now everyone knew when Messiah had to be
born:

o
1000 years
after David's consolidated Kingship, which was (per Bible), 1004 bc.
o
So then Messiah was SCHEDULED to have the same lifetime as David's
total rulership, 40 years.
o
So then He would have died in 37AD, had the Jews
accepted Him. That was, year 4143 from
Adam's Fall. Rule of 57 would be met. Daniel 9's timeline of the 69 weeks, ends here.
o
So when the
First Temple went down, that Schedule was now in breach. Daniel thus metered his own
prayer in Daniel 9, timing the date he prayed to the
beginning of the last missed sabbatical year.
o
Daniel's
metered prayer asked for the specific units of Time God grants (God replying also in meter, as well as explicit text), in Daniel 9:24-26. (The '50' is left out, since it's not
Jewish time. So it's in ellipsis, between Dan9:26 and
9:27.)
o
So there were TWO sevens, 14 -- a subunit
depicting Time In
Breach, Loss of Time due to Temple Down, which Moses had warned
of, metrically; which Isaiah metrically
doubled (two positives offsetting the negative). Paul will ape both Moses' and
Isaiah's usage, in a type of antiphony showing the Church will be used as the Time Bridge to
fulfill the 14.
o
One seven, was
embedded in the 62nd week; and
the other was the Tribulation, in Daniel 9:27.
Both were to play in and due to Messiah's 'time' (front-and-back
like 7-day-pre-Flood warning to Noah, Messiah's death kicking off final 57); since Israel went overbudget,
so to speak, in Temple Reconstruction delay (21 years
instead of seven, between 537BC and 516BC).
o
So when Christ
came and Israel rejected Him, He ended up
dying seven years earlier, still in the 62nd week of Daniel 9:26. So that 'week', didn't complete.
We don't notice that, because we ASSume a lunar accounting. So the preterist thinks that Daniel 9:27 is
the only 7. So too, the
Dispensationalist. Not so! This hanging extra 7, was yet future at the time Paul wrote, and would be 'spent' on
taking down the Temple under Titus, 64-70AD.
Everyone expected that, since Daniel 9:26 is on Temple Down.
·
Christ knew that; so before He
died, He Inaugurated Church, Matt16:18.
John 17:17-23 shows It's Up To
Father, How Many FUTURE SOULS
Christ Should 'Fund', On The Cross. So Body Count is set, but not Time.
· As a result, Time is in a 'bubble' of Daniel
9:26, the '62nd
week': a 434, leaving 56 to finish the 490. We Church Are made into The
Time Bridge of History; so God's Promises to CHRIST as King of the
Jews, get fulfilled just as promised the Jews, in the Old Testament.
We do not replace the Jews. We
have our own covenant, theme of Book of Hebrews.
All NT Bible writers use this
Doctrine to track Time from Christ's age and to the Millennium, in meter. Thus we not only can know when
they wrote; but also, their meters set their themes; so we can better know how to read, what they
wrote.

Click
here for Matthew's tracking. Matthew
is provably the first Gospel, and he baldly datelines it as 30 ad.
·
Click
here for Luke's tracking, in the 'jim' videos. Luke wraps around Matthew, and includes the Magnificat tracking that
started the NT style of Hebrew meter yet in Greek
words, back in Adar 5 bc. James tags his meter, to Luke and Paul's.
·
Paul
plays on Mary. Luke's Gospel outline
is based on the Magnificat, so Paul 'wraps' to it, in Ephesians 1.
·
Click
here for Mark's tracking. Mark wraps around Matthew and Luke, proving
conclusively that his Gospel is third. For his text tracking in the Synoptics, click here.
·
Peter
plays on Paul. Peter's meter wraps
around Paul's, to create a marching song of future history; Paul stopped at 62 weeks; Peter essentially
adds the fronting seven weeks, to update how Church is the Bridge Back to Israel's Time.
·
Hebrews builds its outline around Peter and then
Mark: video demonstration starts here.
·
John (this document) then reconciles all of them.
·
This Bible Hebrew meter
has at least 30 characteristics, observable from Psalm 90 forward, so the
rhetorical style is 1500 years old, by the time John writes. (Click here for the

Note: teal 'estin'
variant (verse 4) is in Tischendorf/Sinaiticus
(a). It should be the better verb, since
there's no distinction between 'life' and 'Him'. The other phrases use ayn
to separate Two Persons. John would use it as a present
tense in contrast to the repeated imperfect, forecasting John 8:58. It would make the ending meters one higher,
as shown after 'or', below right. So I
bet John used estin: so much, his deft style.

Meter's Import
A. John
Advertises
his Gospel theme by phrasing his dateline, as 7 Years After Temple Fell.
So we know why he writes, by when he writes. For the 7th
year completed; yea, even the 8th year has come, since the Temple
went down AGAIN, even on the same day as the 1st, just as Daniel 9:26 said it would; yet no Rapture, no Tribulation, no Millennium?
Yea, his
audience is in deep depression. Christ
would have been 80 years old = 4183 from Adam's Fall, end
of year, just before his 81st birthday; for they're kvetch-quoting
Moses, Psalm 90:13: What's the
delay? How long must we wait, ad-matay? So to answer, God has John create a roping,
tic-tac-toe metrical narrative. Like Spanish
kids now learn numbers: dos y dos son quatro,
quatro y dos son seis; seis y dos son
ocho, y ocho es dieciseis. Though of course John, recounts How Christ reconciles History.
His
Story, looked false. Folks expected Trib
to begin at Temple's Fall. Instead,
came 7 years of ouden,
meden, outhen,
nothing. Paul had used ouden and outhen, in
1Cor13. So God has John craft his
Gospel, keying off their disaffection and Paul's Eph1:3-14 plus
1Cor13. So John's meter plays on Paul's what-if-the-Rapture
scenarios re future Church history, in Eph 1:3-14. For believers were miffed at God's
'delay'. Paul metered
Christ Age 73 at hagious, Eph 1:4b! But
He didn't COME!! Yeah, 'one of
many potential Rapture dates; by Eph1:13,
Paul prophesied a 'winter' of Christian discontent due to rapid apostasy, after
Christ's death. Same idiocy as now: oh, Rapture is a thrill! Not to mention, revenge. Yea, Rapture can happen anytime; but its criterion
is mature body (Eph4:13-16, hence John Chaps 14-17): so if
bodies ain't maturin', Rapture ain't comin'.
John's
meter also 'talks back to' Matthew's, Luke's, and Mark's Vote meters. Since Matthew's playing-on-Daniel-9 meter ended
with 476
not 483,
John's '7'
here, certifies that now '483' applies. Luke's meter is bifurcated: a) preamble
'cover letter' meter to 'Theophilus' (Luke 1:1-4), delivering the b) seven-years'-earlier
meter dateline, of his Gospel (Luke 1:5-7). In b), Luke's
first dateline is just like Paul's, Christ Age '56'; flipside meaning, the '14'
of history had yet to 'play'. (Paul's Ephesians 1:10 meter of '14', plays on Daniel's
62 weeks; his meter total does too, at 434 syllables = years, plotting Rome's
future to Odovacer; just as Daniel had done
in his Dan 9 prayer meter, for Israel's kings.) Since Mary's Magnificat
uses that same ending '56' meter prospectively, Paul expects his readers to
know Luke's Gospel; seems both epistles went out that year, or were written then and maybe distributed later. Magnificat meter was long known; Zecharias'
soliloquy played to it; both ran Time forward to 40 years before
expected Millennium. Then,
Zecharias added 80, for equidistance (ending 40 years post-Mill).
Back then, Christ wasn't born: so they both used Daniel 9's
schedule. As shown in my 'jim'
videos, Luke's post-Cross Gospel is built on their meters: God
Orchestrates Time For Gentiles, Too.
So John updates both Paul and Luke,
'adding' 7
to show 'yes, the first seven has now played', Temple Down. Prior –
in the Year of the Four Emperors, just after Paul died -- Mark's trenchant '14'
dateline meter, piggybacked on Luke's 56 to form a Rapture question, 'Will the Vote (70)
Complete?' For Mark wrote, when Titus surrounded Jerusalem. John's update, gives antiphonal 'answer': his measly '7' admits 'no', Mark's
other '7'
has yet to play. Ouch.
Time to remind everyone of the
Gospel, then. Why we are
still here. For back then,
with all the furor over Rapture dates -- sound familiar, even 2000 years later?
– We've Forgotten Why We Were Saved. So John, writes about Love.

B. Isn't Love best shown by adding,
spending.. Time? So John's Love Gospel metrically
introduces Time God Spent To Save
Israel. John centers Chaps
14-17 on Love's activities, Greek verb menw: abide, dwell in, wait for,
remain; root concept is Wife
Waits For Her Husband To Come Home. So we are husbanded into a Bible Birthing Body, as Paul quips in 1Cor12:31 (the real start of Chap 13) and Eph4:16 (wedding night verbs sumbibazw
and sunarmologew, translators won't clearly
render, but see Thayer's lexicon). John's meter
thus shows Body Built into Living Temple (play on Eph2). So he gives
his audience a wry math, history and prophecy brief, as they know exactly when he writes.
So we can, too. Italics below, translate
math-and-Greek-text interplay. ('To emulate John's roping style.) John's meter reconciles
fiscal-year starts: Adamic, 3rd
week September, autumnal equinox; Christ Born 25 Chislev
= 3rd week December = 12/25, last week Roman
Year; finally, Noahic/ Abrahamic/
sacred year, 3rd week March, vernal equinox (intercalated
in Adar; hence 4-day spread, by December's end). So '4184' is Sept. start, Adamic,
earliest; then Christ's Birthday shorthand for Roman fiscal start, Jan 1; then Noahic/
Abrahamic/ sacred, March.

1John
Revelation
Is
that an awesome Gospel prologue, or
what? Why didn't
we pass on this meter technique, to our kids? How many centuries have we taught/learned
Bible as if God must be vague, abstruse and boring, to be wise, holy and majestic? Kill me now.
So notice: we can't say when the Rapture will happen. Since the world
remains largely on the Julian calendar, I'd bet 2nd Advent is on
Chanukah. Shortened
seven years, by one 'week'.
When He was born and due to lack of intercalation, could have easily
been Julian 25 December, as I tried to show in PassPlot.htm
. (You might need to
paste the link: /PassPlot.htm#HisBday
.)
C. Over the centuries, we've attempted to synchronize
His Chanukah
= 25 December Birthdate (Haggai 2's wit); we've also attempted, to reconcile our bc/ad Calendar to His Chronology,
with many problems debated. Yet we never notice, Varro's
Roman auc is overstated by four
years? For at the time
Mary spoke, Romans argued Varro's tally of Rome's 'age' was wrong, slipshod,
politically-motivated to please Augustus.
Varro padded
his tally with four fake 'dictators' and another
four pairs of fake consuls. Had he done only one of the two 'fours', his tally would have at least
been right with respect to Rome's age, claimed his detractors. (There’s
no proof Dionysius used Roman auc; but for the last 200 years, scholars
assumed he did. These same scholars started to use Varro's Roman auc routinely, to derive bc/ad conversions. So its usage is of central concern in proper
dating vs. Bible; especially to answer Bible’s critics, who treat Roman auc as a Holy Grail of accuracy.)
Luke 3:1, converts Roman auc to Bible's own Anno Domini, which is also
an NT dateline meter convention. Thus we are alerted, to the Roman auc 'problem' cited above. Bible often phrases years as equidistances, to play on Psalm 90:15, how
God answers Moses' prayer: give us AS MANY good years
as bad years. Ergo Luke 3:1,
15+15=30. Count back
15 from 15th year of Tiberius: that's when Christ was born.
Tiberius became co-ruler with Augustus
in what we call ad 13, which means
his 15th year is 27ad,
by Bible's Anno Domini conversion. '3-year difference: for Christ is born, end of Roman
year; He is thus properly accounted as age 33 when dying, at START of what we
traditionally call, '30 ad'.
For He died on
true Passover, on 1470th 'birthday'
of original Exodus, on Noah's 3080th
birthday. 30 AD is not one of His years. For He
died, at its beginning.
[As also covered at length in PassPlot.htm, the Jews hadn't
intercalated, that's why
John is so sarcastic, calling that last year when He died, 'the Passover of
the Jews', not God's, John 11:55. John
18:39ff, recounts what should have been the real Pesach Erev. Between John 18:38 and v.39 was the 'trial'
before Herod, at least a day or two prior.
You see that, if you read Luke 23:3-4.
Bear in mind, folks reading this material when newly
published by Luke or John, long knew it already. So time skips didn't confuse them. So for John to leave out
the Herodian trial was a pointed omission they would notice. Especially, since he skips from day Five before the 'Passover of the Jews' which occurred four days
too fast.. to just before that 'passover' (12:1 begins day Six, 12:12 says day
Five.. then Chapter 13:1's day OF). Ouch.
So, equidistance:
ANOTHER FOUR DAYS also elapse from His initial arrest through the day He
dies (beginning at 18:39); for the Lamb was supposed to be set aside on the 10th, the day
He is arrested. Well, that's the same number of days the
calendar was running too fast, so that the Lord could eat yet be the
Passover. So the time skip is pointed. All night of 'official' (four-days-too-fast)
Passover and the following day (maybe two) – when under the Mosaic Law they
were supposed to DO NO WORK -- instead, Annas was busy working THAT FIRST NIGHT
with the priests, and hired a whole Roman cohort, simply to arrest Him in
Gethsemane. Then they all trudged over
to Caiaphas, then the full Sanhedrin assembled
(which John also skips over): all that took one more day; likely, two
more. Early probably on Day Two or more
likely Three, was the first visit with Pilate, who then sends them to Herod,
surely on Day Three. Day Four, Pesach Erev – the real one, not the
official one – they go back to Pilate, John 18:39 and following. Just think of the logistics. Three
governments, six events: Annas, Caiaphas and then Sanhedrin, Pilate, Herod,
back to Pilate. It's not as if everyone
sat around, waiting for Jews to come accuse Him. You needed an appointment. There were protocols to observe.
Especially given the fact God would obviously Obey His
Own Exodus 12 Law on 4-day-countdown between Lamb Set Aside and Eat-Lamb
Passover, since It Depicted His Son -- any sane person could guess that 4 days
elapsed. For you just can't assemble 70
Sanhedrin jurists three times during Passover week
on short notice, then assemble them all again before a
Roman procurator, then they all run over to
Herod's for an audience and then they all run back to
Pilate for a second audience, followed by a very long
scourging. Formal customs of pomp to
show deference to authority, formal trial protocols, formal trying-to-kill-Him
with the Roman stone-and-bone, wouldn't permit such haste. Then finally, assemble all the people in the square and give
that long speech, followed by a long march outside the city to Golgatha? These seven trials were official
functions, so they DIDN'T all happen within 12 hours, from midnight after the
Last Supper, until noon the next day when He allegedly starts screaming, per
stupid Bible movies!]
Yet Bible also tracks its own 3.5-year
divergence: to show God Balances Time, from
Adam's Fall. We don't notice this doctrine;
we instead merely add Bible years; since they don't
then balance, we imagine we make
Christ born end 4 bc to reconcile,
deeming Bible wrong. (It's easier to follow the text below and in D., if you peruse /GeneYrs.xls
. It only uses Bible's numbers from Adam to Christ; then, I fitted them to our
common 'traditional Christian' bc/ad. The years balance with six-month
variations; so at times you might
encounter a + or -1 problem.)
For as usual, God exploits any seeming Bible
'error', to stress vital doctrines: here, God the Master Accountant, treats
Time as an asset, with mirrored, offsetting
debits and credits. Examples: Abraham's kids are sentenced to 400
years of slavery before they are born, with Jacob & Co. first in Egypt, 30
years prior; mirror,
David is born 400 years after that Exodus, becomes king 30 years later; Israel
is sentenced to 40 years' wandering in the wilderness; mirror,
Temple stands another 40 years after The
Wanderers (=
'Hebrews') sentenced
Christ; Israel wanders after 1st
Temple dies, for 70 years; mirror, gets 70 reimbursed (if you did your Daniel 9 math properly), via 2nd Temple's 490 (62 weeks = 364, # years 1st
Temple stood, + 70). Bible is number/son intensive with the
begats, kingship periods, etc. – to show How
God Reconciles Time. Yet we Christians don't even know this doctrine,
exists??!!

Yet
all NT authors metrically reconcile
to that 3.5-year shortfall; as you'll see in B., here in C., and in D., they expect readers to 1) memorize the
text, and 2) know Bible on begats, kings and their regnal years, sons,
etc. For all those numbers and sons, display
an ongoing accounting of Time Deadlines, since the
fiscal years are six months apart.
You can't see it until you plot Bible numbers
from Adam to Christ. Bible numbers, not
astronomical (or worse, astrological) charts.
Bible numbers, not the hasty tabulation by a slipshod bishop or Sir So
and So whom you respect. Bible should be respected, first.
Matthew
1's metered genealogy, for exmple, does this reconciliation: click here for the videos. The 'Matt9'
video shows the underlying Bible calendar,
for what follows below. Bible's Anno Domini itself reconciles years between Christ's actual death, vs.
Daniel 9 SCHEDULE for His death, vs. INITIAL schedule for His Birth and Death..
based on Abraham and finally, Adam.
GIST, the disparity Varro's errant Roman auc,
unwittingly reflects: what should have been His Deadline for
Birth -- 4106 From Adam's Fall -- had to be cut 3.5 years, due to intervening deadlines of David's Kingship, Retirement, and
Death. How did I get 4106 from Adam? Bible numbers: 1656 Flood (which began 1655), + 1050 = year Moses wrote the famous (to Jews) Psalm
90, re How God Orchestrates Time. For Moses dateline-metered Psalm 90, at the start of the 1051st year post-Flood. (After I made the Psalm 90 videos to show this, I
learned that Jews use Psalm 90 to count Time
to Millennium Promised via Messiah.) It runs 350 syllables = years; at end (since Psalm 90:15, asks for
equidistance!) 1050 years remain to Messiah's birth. Sum is 4106.
You get the same total, if you add up relevant Bible dates, from Adam
through Christ's Birth. Bible's 'bc = 0'
conversion, is 4106. Subtract it from any bc date, to get the equivalent Bible date. Or vice versa, to get bc. Scholars don't
consistently derive bc and ad, so you'll get variance; yet you'll
know what Bible years, equate. (I didn't know Bible meter, when I first
made GeneYrs.xls, back in
2004. I first learned the meter in 2008 when trying to prove if there were
missing Hebrew words, in Isaiah 53.
There aren't: Isaiah pairs his paragraph meters, click here.)
So Christ is born Chanukah, near start of 4103; for Adamic years,
start on autumnal equinox. Psalm 90:15 equidistance
pun on '3': Christ is born 3rd week of 3rd
month of 4103rd year since Adam's Fall; He dies at age 33, 3 months
and 3 weeks ON true Passover's 1470th 'birthday' (490 x 3). Sacred year
begins on vernal equinox, 3rd week of
March (see Exodus 12), and Passover begins on Noah's birthday.
Christ's
Birth is a timed promise to David in 2 Samuel 7, as
any Jew can recite; they Wait
For Messiah based on a (faulty) 'promise calendar', the Seder Olam
Rabbah. God's promise was first timed to
Abraham, as any Jew can also recite, albeit incorrectly: 2000 years
for goyim, 2000 years for Jews, then Messiah comes. The correct number is 2100, not 2000. Their dates became garbled mid-first century,
i.e., Josephus' Bible timeline. Happily, we have Bible, to recover the right
accounting.
For
God timed 1050 years from Abraham, to human progenitor of
Messiah. Abraham matured, got
his own Time Grant, mid-2046 From Adam's Fall (aka 'FAF'); on or near, what became Passover.
So David was crowned at Hebron, 3.5 years early,
to be 'on time' relative to Abraham, 1050 years prior: 3096.5 from Adam's Fall. So 3096.5-2046.5 = 1050, God kept His
Promise.
Problem: David then wasn't crowned king over all Abraham's Promise
Children, then called 'Israel'. There
intervened, a 7-year civil war. So David
becomes king over all Israel 7 years later in 3103 FAF, read 2 Samuel 5 et seq. So now, the 'promise schedule' is 3.5 years late. So Messiah must be born effectively end 4 bc by Bible's own reckoning;
for now He must be born by the 1000th
anniversary of David's second
crowning, 3.5 years prior to the Abrahamic 4106
deadline. To balance both deadlines.
To balance again to Abraham, Christ must die by
2046+2100=4146. But again, David dies
earlier: 1000th anniversary of his death is 4143. If one properly uses solar years to compute Daniel 9:26, the 69th
week correctly ends at 4143 = 37 AD, not
30. Ooops. Since this 'discrepancy' bothers us, instead
of trying to find out why it's there, we mask it: we convert the 490 into lunar years, despite Bible's solar-only
mandate, in Exodus 12. So we
never balance to bc or ad
dates, throw up our hands and call Bible
'inscrutable'?! Wasting, billions
of dollars and lives. For centuries.
So now, back to Tiberius.
Despite all our debate, God still managed to convey that we must deduct 3 years to properly align Christ's birth for Bible
and non-Bible, accounting. Many thus
claim we gerrymander facts, to make Bible look good. Worse, Roman historians date Tiberius' 1st
year as 14 ad, the same year Augustus died.
Since instead, Bible adds up regnal years, folks often double-count, or
start in the wrong year. So they also don't 'balance' to Luke 3:1, yet deem Bible wrong.
Again, Christ was born on Chanukah, end of the Roman year. So you must account
Him as born the start of the following year.
You can't just subtract 30 ad from 4 bc without knowing when in the year
He was born, and hope to balance to Bible's numbers or even to our bc/ad.
You must know a) He was born at the end of what we
call 4 bc, and that He died at the
start of what we call 30 ad.
The '33' then becomes obvious, even if you didn't know His Death Age
from other Bible verses ('33'
is a prophetic rhetorical pattern, really, starting with Pharaoh's Dream).
John's meter is thus invaluable; for he annually tracks Bible's own 'ad', relative
to Adamic and Abrahamic fiscals; hence indirectly, to Roman auc.
But you won't balance, if you don't know Christ was born on
Chanukah. Sadly, Christians often deem
Christ born in the spring, despite clear passages on what day He'd be born:

Revelation
Bible's Divine Cleverness, is
always missed by its readers. So for
centuries, we misaccount His years, ever lazy to properly read His Birth and
Death dates. So much for
our vaunted devotion to God! (I'm just as
guilty. God drags me, kicking and
screaming.)
So now we see the aptness of Luke 3:1: Varro's
Roman auc is wrong by the same
amount, as the 3.5-year disparity Bible tracks, for Christ's Birthdate! If we didn't have this '4 bc problem', we'd have no reason to re-examine our
calculations. Varro's mistake, makes it easier to notice the Bible itself is reconciling a discrepancy
of the same amount, to Bring Time Into
Balance. Rome's founding should have been counted as 749 or 750 (depending on whether you count, the
closing year). So if really 750/749 when Christ born, Rome's
'752' or '753' age is overstated. Luke seems to adjust for this, 'padding'
four syllables = years around the Magnificat
(see its
last page). For when Luke wrote his Gospel, Varro's calendar had been made law.
Obviously
the NT writers knew all about this problem.
They had it, too. So Bible
accounting, doesn't use Roman auc
directly, and neither did the Romans in their daily calculations. Yet when I tallied Ephesians 1:3-14
starting syllable = year 1 as 1 ad,
Paul's own Anno Domini numbers balance exactly to
Roman historians' dates. Why? Well for one thing, Paul would know the
errors in Varro's calendar. For another,
he'd know what Roman auc year
corresponded to when Christ was born, and could adjust such that it wouldn't
matter, how old folks claimed 'Rome' was.
So his numbers would of course match, for the
audience then reading what he wrote; they'd know all those numbers, too.
Our
task, by contrast, is to back into what they all knew. Essentially, our 'traditional' bc/ad four-year adjustment, proves the
most useful: if and only if, we recall Christ is born at end of year, and died
at beginning of year; so our net
adjustment, is usually '3'. Thus we
balance against the net four-year
error, in Varro's Roman auc. You can then argue over
whether to call His Birth Year
'4' or '2' bc; and call His death, '30' or '31' ad – if 31, make it end-of-year, with
Passover starting 32 -- based on what 'source' you aim to reconcile. The actual years in question, are the same in both dating systems, and
well attested; but Varro's error means Rome's age isn't right; nor is it
consistently calculated, from scholar to scholar.
Every
Roman history scholar knows to consult the Fasti (rosters, i.e., of what pair of guys were
consuls when); but then they convert
those paired names into bc or ad years, by reference to how old Rome was.. based on Varro's Roman auc.
So their bc values will be (only sometimes) overstated by
up to four years; since properly, the timeline should move 'left'. Their ad
values will (only
sometimes) be understated by up to four years, for the same reason (need to move the year NAMES, 3 to the
right). For Christ is 3 years older
than the ad we use (four years older, in the last week of any
December). But you can't merely shift the ad rightward on
the timeline, as many do (i.e., claiming Christ died 33 ad); for not all Varronic conversions will
be wrong for other events. Depends on what
other historical material is compared, conversion method, how one reconciles
discrepancies. It's a mess for everyone,
sorry.
So again, back to Tiberius. The Roman
historian will tell you that he began rule in 14 ad, since that's when Augustus died. That historian, will first compare all the
records of when Augustus died, starting with the consuls. But then, he converts to our 'ad', based on how old Rome
is deemed to be under Varro's auc,
to get '14 ad'. So he'll be accurate re the consuls, accurate
re Augustus' regnal years, but still wrong with respect to what number
name ad it is, since
the 'ad' portion of the
calculation depends on the total elapsed years Varro
used. Even though, Varro's
doubling error applies to years 300 bc
and prior. Same for any other date converted by reference to Roman auc,
like when Quirinius was in Syria, Battle of Actium, Caesar crossing the
Rubicon, etc. So we can only adjust backwards or forwards for
Christ's Age, after first using the erroneous Varronic auc.
In any event, everyone knows that Bible's
chronology places what we call the 70 ad
Destruction of the Temple, as occurring 40 years after Christ died.
That same chronology, when fitted to Bible's changing Deadlines,
shows that Christ was age 73 when the Temple went down. The Temple Fall date is well attested, and
the 40-year delay is universally known by Bible scholars. They all know the delay was intentional. They don't know why. But we will know why, starting on the next
page. Of course, 2nd Temple's
famous fall, also highlights the fact that Varro's Roman auc is wrong, not the Bible (smile here).

1John
Revelation
Yet what Christendom doesn't know at all – but could have learned, from
the Jews -- is that Bible always balances to a future endpoint,
a Scheduled Millennium Of 4200
From Adam's Fall; it was to start on, Christ's 98th birthday.
(Bible uses
last-birthday accounting, unless otherwise noted in the text, example of Luke
3:1.) Age 97 that year, instead of 100 like Abraham,
since the Davidic deadline shortened
Time relative to Abraham, by 3.5 years. Hopefully the origin of that 3.5 shortfall,
is now clear to you. For now Bible's Time-Forward Reconciliation becomes
sophisticated: a rolling series of converging fiscal anniversaries that tally to each other;
going all the way back to the Flood, and even to Adam. Remember that adage among Jews (Google to find it like I did, in Jan.
2010) -- 2000 years for the goyim, 2000 years for the Jews,
then Messiah comes..
Adage
should finish, thus: comes.. pays, leaves, waits for the Gentiles
to be Harvested, and Returns. That's what the Mosaic Law memorialized, via
Pentecost and Jubilee. Payback for Abraham maturing 53.5 years too early,
the foundation for why there is a
Tribulation. 53.5 years after Messiah was to die, remained to
'complete' the final 2100: for 2046+2100 is still 'short'. David's second
crowning being 7 years late, meant another net
3.5 had to be added, resulting in
a total 'credit' of 57. So now you know
where the Tribulation 7 comes from in Daniel 9, and why it's bifurcated into
paired 3.5's:
This
57 is metrically tracked by all Bible writers as 56,
the number of days between 1st
day Passover and Pentecost; and between Pentecost and 9th
Av. 56 seems the most
prominent meter, from Moses forward. Psalm
90 makes palindromes of it, as does Isaiah 53; Daniel leaves
the 56
in ellipsis (since he asks God for it), ending his Chapter 9 prayer meter at
742 (742*7+56, is
5250, which is 4200+1050). So Matthew, who used the 42 meter
of Isaiah 52:13-14 (where
the chapter begins, in Hebrew) – used the 56 in his first dateline meter, also via ellipsis (427+56=483, idea that Church isn't in the
Trib, but rather the Bridge of Time to it; and that Bridge of Time, began when
Christ died, the same year as Matthew writes). So too Paul and Luke, each used 56
for their datelines; Peter wrapped his meter around
Paul's 434, to create 483. Mark tagged his
datelines onto Luke and Matthew.
So
like the other Gospel writers, John uses meter to remind readers of
Millennium-related convergences, to create a
Gospel precis. So you can know at its beginning, what he means. What you are to learn, is that The Temple the
Temple depicted, is the Center of History.
Millennium, is a promise to HIM. Paul explained that in
Galatians 3, by the clever use of 'seed', playing on Isaiah 53:10. Singular.
John will use dates. Plural.
Pregnancies Have Due
Dates, Church is Bride; so how 'far
along' is she? Heh.
Bible has always
kept a record of these Messiah-centric deadlines, fore and aft; the earliest among the deadlines, changes
the future timeline. As a result, if starting in Genesis one merely adds
Bible years not noticing its timeline shifts, we end with a 10 year variance in
bc/ad estimates (i.e., claims Christ was born from 4 bc to 6 ad).
The variance occurs, because we were on
TimeTrack #1, but it changed, due to some shift. So then in later text, which compares Time
Track #2, #3, etc. -- the count changes.
So Bible seems wrong. But instead, it's reconciling the
shift. You can't see that until you plot the dates, like I did in GeneYrs.xls . Only then, did I notice these shifts. Maxima mea culpa.

of coming distractions: here are the Timeline shifts, each with its own reconcilings. You must plot the dates.
Paste this link into your browser: /Ephesians1REPARSED.htm#TimeDistance .
It's easier to see the shifts, there.
1. Shift from Adam to Abraham, year 2046. Key: Adamic fiscal begins on autumnal equinox. Noah's Grant shifted
the relevant fiscal year forward to vernal equinox. (Bible's mistranslated, owing to LXX having some right
info in Genesis 7-8, but Masoretic has the rest. So you must inspect both texts, to see Noah
was in the boat 364 days, entering and leaving it, each
57 days AFTER his birthday.) So pre-Abraham, we're on Time Track #1; from Abraham, we're on Track #2; so counts relative to Adam vs. Abraham differ, in later
Bible passages. It's easy to confuse the
Tracks, and deem Bible errant.
2. Shift from Abraham to
Jacob,
Gen 32:24ff and consequent covenant, year 2166.
Key: it's not
marked by Jacob having a son. This Track
#3 shift causes scholar problems, when they work with Exo 12:40-41 (Joseph was first enslaved, among the
'sons'), compared to
Gen 15:12ff, Exo 6:20 (mistranslated 'father's
sister', but the Hebrew/Greek text mean 'cousin'), etc.
3. Shift from Jacob to Joseph when the latter is enslaved, year
2176. Exodus is 490 years later, to
'fulfill' Gen 15:12ff. Again, no son's
birth to commemorate it, so you can only see it if you
plot the dates. Track #4.
4. Shift from Joseph to Moses
= all Israel at Exodus, 2666. Still Track #4.
5. Shift when Israel rejects
God as King, 3056, ten years after the 1000th
anniversary of Abraham's maturation, and 2000 years after Noah born. This creates an impetus
for the Davidic Track, #5.
Messiah's birth is based on this Track #5, but prior Tracks must be
reconciled, too. So John's
meter, focuses on reconciliation.
6. Shift to Temple Dedication, 1 Kings 8:1, autumnal
equinox, year 3156; that's also the 1050th anniversary of Jacob's
birth, 1500th anniversary of the Flood, 2100th
anniversary of Noah's birth. The year
reconciles Track #4; but it doesn't
reconcile to #1 or #5, directly. So this
becomes Track #6. It's the focus of
Daniel 9:24-27.
7. Shift to Messiah and thus
Church when He dies. His Death's
Timing, must reconcile all prior Time Tracks. Bible meters focus on this reconciliation,
from Moses forward; John's meter baldly
makes these reconciliations, in every clause.
So John's dateline meter tracks this cumulative
10-year shift, to warn Church is also Maturing Late.
John meters each clause to create a dateline 'lesson', germane to his
theme. He piggybacks each such metered
'lesson' to his Gospel, in 1John and Revelation. Thus we have a unique way to test, a variety
of key Bible dates.
Why do that? His audience already knows when they got his Gospel. If I send you a fax and you get it minutes after I send it, I don't
need to tell you when I sent it.
You know, when you get it. Yet it might be imperative to date the fax,
i.e., if content relates to
that date.
Even so, Bible dateline meters: when
relates content; meter provides via dateline, a precis of
content. So when
John writes is no mystery, to his audience.
For them the issue is rather, what do they
need to learn, amidst material already too well
known? For think: when a
product is often advertised, you become 'dull' to its message. And as we saw in A., they must learn to stop date-setting, grow up. So the Holy Spirit directs the methodical yet
drama-loving John, to compose based on what doctrinal/Gospel elements should be
stressed, omitted, rephrased, etc.
John's dateline meter functions like a Greek narrator, at the start of
a play: he comes onstage with panache; then via meter, gives you the precis, for The Play. Greeks and
Romans used literature and drama, to teach.
So how the narrator words his opening speech, foretells specifics you are to learn, from a playwright's long-famous
story. John's dateline is thus crafted
to specific dates in past and future
history, to interrelate them for his audience. That's how we can know, he writes in honor of
the Lord's 81st birthday: just as Exodus was an 81st birthday present to Moses. For Rapture, is the ultimate Exodus.
Exodus was juridically timed to 490 years after Joseph was first enslaved, to fulfill the
400-year-slavery promise God made to Abraham: 10
years for Joseph, +390 years
for all Israel, even as Abraham became mature 390 years after the Flood. Joseph was enslaved, 2176. 60 years later, his dad Jacob would enter
Egypt with the entire family, minus those who had already died. So
Jacob was 60 when he returned to the Land; 60 years after that, he came to
Joseph and Egypt. The 10 years between, while Jacob was in the Land, are
in ellipsis. You'd briefly scratch your
head over the missing 10, then smile.
For 'Twice' (=Yusef) got
10 fat years with his dad, then 10 lean years as a slave in Egypt. So Jacob, 70 years after he re-entered the
Land, enters Egypt with 70 living descendants (Gen 46:27). Heh.

1John
Revelation
Since Jacob's 490-year Time Grant ended 10 years prior to
the Exodus, it's obvious from Scripture, that God shifted the Time Grant to Joseph: 490 years after 2176, was the
Exodus (2666).
So now, fast-forward from Exodus,
to John's day, Gospel writing. Since
·
Time grants had again shifted to
Church, as
Time Got Reconciled in Christ (Rom 10:4, Gal 3, 4:4, etc.), and
·
we are the 2nd wall, with our own covenant,
Ephesians 2, Psalm 110 (which Hebrews explained in detail);
so
·
the Time baton passes to Church.
·
Folks thus deemed the Rapture formula
might be equidistantly similar, to the OT
formulae: He was alive 33 years, so 33 years after He dies, Rapture happens.
·
Paul had even plotted it as potential, starting at syllable 66 in Eph 1:4. (Keywords: kataboles
kosmou einai, how apt. Of
course, that year ended up being when Paul and later Nero, died. Heh: Paul then was Home with
the Founder of the World, and Nero who thought he was founding the world, went to its foundation,
aka Hell. Notice that due to the
shifting fiscals, you get 68-69 ad.)
So
John's audience, as we saw
in A., invoked Moses'
Psalm 90:13, ad-matay? How long
(till we See You)? Since God previously gave Paul multiple pre-Church 'traditional' Rapture
formulae for his Ephesians 1 meter, John picks one for his own
prologue meter as still potential, in John 1:5: Temple Should Have
Died At Christ's Age 83 (yet future to when John writes the
Gospel; that year becomes 1John's
dateline) -- to balance to Abraham.
For Christ first should
have died, to 'fit' Abraham's 1050th year. Pre-Church, initial
deadline was year 4146, which was 1480 years
after Exodus (10
short of 1490), 1000
years after Temple Construction Start (1Kings 6:1), 2100 years after Abraham
matured, 1050 years after David crowned at Hebron. Time Promised The Jews would have ended
by 4146; only 54 (really
53.5) years remained
to 'reimburse' Gentiles for Abraham's too-early maturation (2100-2046.5). Then Millennium should begin. That was the original schedule, irrespective
of David's crowning. Mary's Magnificat
meter, balances to it (see the last page).
Now if David were instead crowned king over all Israel in 3096.5, and if he instead died at age 80 (1Kings 6:1), then
·
the Christ would have been born 4096.5,
·
would have had 50 years allotted to Him,
·
dying at latest in the 2100th anniversary
of Abraham's maturation. And,
·
if the Temple began construction when it did (year 3146, immediately after David's
putative death, rather than delayed),
·
He'd also be dying in its own
1000th 'birthday' of Construction Start, as well as
·
in the 1000th anniversary of David's death (putatively, age 80). So all timelines would have been reconciled,
for Israel.
·
Then would have come the remaining 53.5 years, and
·
the 'Tribulation' would have only been the last 3.5, 'time of Jacob's trouble'.
·
So the Mosaic Law's Harvesting
The Gentiles period of 50 years, would have matched
Messiah's lifetime.
·
But as it actually happened, David died 3.5 years
earlier,
·
Temple didn't begin construction until 3.5 years after his death,
·
and Messiah, born early to compensate, was also killed
early, being Rejected.. 7 more years.
·
So the seven years' delay (3.5 x 2 with respect to
David), are offset by Christ dying seven years early.
·
But relative to Abraham,
Christ actually dies 10 years short (the remaining 3.5, plus 7).
This 10-year shortfall, remains.
·
So now 50, becomes 40.
This is why everyone expected Temple to go down 40 years after His
Death. And, it did.
·
So Temple dies at His Age 73,
rather than 83.
Thus John 1:5's meter, targets this 10-year Time
Shift Reconciliation from Abraham to Joseph to Exodus to Christ. Why Joseph?
The 490 shifted to him when he was only 17, enslaved due to his
brothers' jealousy, back in 2176 from Adam.
His dad Jacob, who was in his 71st year when Joseph was sold
into slavery -- Jacob got the covenant, 10 years prior; so again Jacob's
490 would run out 10 years prior to, the Exodus God foreknew. Since
no one is granted a 490 unless spiritually supermatured, we must conclude that
Joseph, was. Of course, Joseph like
Christ, is age 30 when he becomes vizier;
Jacob was then 83, in his 84th year. Aha.
Consequently,
a) based on the Joseph
antecedent, which
b) Paul updated as a potential
Rapture body completion formula,
c) given the above
convergences to Abraham, Exodus, Temple Start;
and,
d) although no one knew the
day or hour, as John will again remind folks via the true Lord's Prayer in John 17;
e) people still expected the Rapture based on an equidistant formula, which balanced to the
pre-Church schedule.

1John
Revelation
As the 2000th
anniversary of Joseph's enslavement was the impetus for Egypt and Exodus, it
was also a potential Rapture date. Paul used hagious in Ephesians 1:4, to benchmark Temple Fall hence possible Rapture, in 4176 (2046.5 + 2100 + 40 - 10): that was when Temple actually fell. Yet
afterwards, nothing happened.
As we just saw, 4176
balances to Abraham despite being only 40 years from Christ's actual death in 4136. Yet there's
another reconciliation for its balance, which was long forecast in Scripture:
·
Isaiah 53 predicted and plotted how 14 of Abraham's
54-year 'credit',
·
got spent rebuilding Temple and Jerusalem.
·
For the 1st Temple died with 126 years
left, on its 490-year Time Grant (950 bc –
586 bc vs. 950 - 460 bc);
·
516 bc,
Temple is finally up on time, Ezra 6:15; and of course Jerusalem gets rebuilt,
to service it;
·
then came the Haman thingy, as recurring
anti-semitism was a lingering political battle among the Medes and
Persians, ever since Cyrus and Daniel. Can't propose purim (= pagan 'casting lots' to learn
what best day to kill the jews), without
political support.
·
Even so, the 70 + 70 years God promised in Jeremiah
25, 29, then in Daniel 9 (no human king's decree, only God's) –
·
that 140-year elapse, left Israel 14 short, in her
Time Bank.
·
2nd
70, from 586 - 446 bc,
Nehemiah (6:15) restores the walls; four generations.
·
Yet she would still balance to Abraham at the end, if only 40 years, were paid.
·
So the Temple stood another 40 years after He died, 'to repay
the Land' for Israel's entering it, 40 years late. (Scholars still wonder,
why. Now, you know why.)
So John writes his Gospel, 1st
quarter of Adamic
4184, the '7'
in John 1:1's first clause: for it was obvious, Millennium wasn't starting.
Kinda like the Mayan calendar craze, in 2012: in John's day, folks had
little faith. So they grabbed the next number in Paul's Ephesians 1:3-14, tally: Oh, Rapture will be xxxx year!
Their claims, then bomb out: to
regroup, they confess they calculated it wrong,
or God gave them updated revelation, or Rapture
occurred as claimed, but it was spiritual,
or 'invisible'. Yeah. 88 reasons why rapture's gonna happen in '88. When '88 ends, say oopsie, it's
gonna happen in '94. Sigh.
Again, back in Ephesians 1,
God had Paul give Christians – akin to quail, just after Exodus (Numbers 11:18, compared to 9:1) -- 434 whopping years of potential rapture dates,
to gorge on. The timeline was '62 weeks'
long, to warn them how Church history would (sadly) go; hence Get your minds on Christ! instead. (Click
here for videos on Paul's Future History meter; its Word doc/ pdf/ htm shows his accurate,
satirical prophecy of Roman history and Church apostasy.)
When Paul died, it was next Peter's job, to remind them. So he also crafted his
dateline meter as a temple building
theme – weaving it explicitly, into Paul's (click
here for the Peter videos). Peter updated
the timespan to 483. To the 69th week, get the parallel?
For Church is always in the sudden-death round of history, perpetual
Groundhog Day, the 'time bubble' of Daniel 9:26. New 490 Time Grant for her, which Paul
measured from Messiah's Birth. Yet Time
remains just as contingent on her
growth, as on the OT Temple: same basic terms, as in 1Kings 9:1ff. So Rapture's criterion is similar to what governed, Temple Fall: Body
Maturation, the positive
criterion for completion, Eph 4:13 'destination of life'; but the negative
remains Daniel 9:24's criterion, when sin completes. Parallel: Israel's sin of rejection
completed, when she rejected Her Groom at His Coming: so her End, came instead.
So too, when Church has fully rejected Christ -- which rejection institutionalized during her 'winter' (Eph 1:13-14), from
Constantine's death, forward. We
are still in that winter; meaning, our maturation is minimal; just a few proelpikotas, every generation. We will
remain negative until Raptured.
And we will be raptured, because
we remain negative.
Anyone in Paul's day,
reading that long and depressing prophetic litany of what-if's back then,
should have concluded, 'forget date-setting, I
just want to learn Christ.'
But oh no. Just as today, folks
kept salivating over the dates. So, 'missed them. Rapture
didn't happen.
So now John's tasked with
the same job as the Bible writers before him. Would Church yet mature by the end of the old
pre-Church schedule? That was
the burning drama question John in his prologue, meters to answer. Rapture might yet happen in
4186 based on that original,
4146. Thus he meters John
1:5, based on his 4184 dateline, in John 1:1.
Thus he reconciles the 10-year variance due to, the 3.5's. Playing Moses age 80 pun
AND Jacob age 83 pun.
For just as you reconcile
budget to actual spending and then revise your budget,
so too: God Reconciles Time itself. Time Spent we see in Bible and
historically, displays a) God's Existence, and b) His Love.

1John
Revelation
Here's another reason why John 1:1, uses '7': to remind us of the timeline change from 10
to 7, by David's day. Have you noticed? Whenever you're working with Bible dates,
there is always a 3-piece, a 7-piece, and a 10-piece which seem to stick out,
both fore and aft of the date you try to ascertain?
Here, '7' should be obvious. There is a recurrence of 7's 'over' or 'short', from Noah
forward. It has both negative (Trib-related) and positive (promise) meanings.
Paul's metered '7' for the same 77 –
84, wasn't Tribulation; Church was behind schedule.
So, we are 'before Him' down here, not 'up there.' God had Paul plot them, to remind folks that God Balances Time; not, to get them drooling. To inspire them to grow up now, not salivate over The
End.
So: David died 3143 from Adam's Fall; the intervening deadline for Christ to die, became
4143. In reality, Christ died 7 years
earlier on the 1000th anniversary of David's
Retirement and Temple's 2nd 490 (had it never been razed, 950 bc +980). So Temple too fell 7 years
earlier, 4176 (4136 when Christ actually died, + 40).
John's Gospel dateline meter is thus 7 years later, start of Adamic 4184, John
1:1. Timed to Christ age 81, not yet on His birthday, but in honor of it. So to
remind them of Moses and the negative Exodus generation. For this time, they can't blame Israel's
negativity, for the delay: Rapture doesn't belong
to Israel. So Church is to blame. ti gar oun,
what's to be done? Well, Paul's Eph 1:4
keywords for 77 - 84, were katenwpion autou. Sure, they're not in heaven 'now' as those
pregnant words depicted, but they are still
'before Him', down here.
Aha. So, try again, katenwpion autou. Same words, different context, same issue,
same fellowship potential, same God. Whether alive or dead, what difference does it make? That's the point!
So John's Gospel meter brackets the balance-to-david, shoulda been
4184 (just after 4183,
when he writes) and
4143, respectively, versus the actual 4176 and 4136 dates of Temple Fall and
Christ's Death, respectively. The first
paired years, had been the scheduled 40th
anniversary after His Daniel 9 '62nd week' scheduled
Death, to balance to David's actual death,
1000 years prior. But Christ Himself
actually died at the end of the 61st week. Hence '14', not '7', remained. So the '7' He should have
been paid, got 'paid' by taking out the Temple.
Just as Pharaoh's dream of 7 fat then
lean years, each 'bracketed' by a 33 (hence Joseph was vizier for 80 years, with the '14'
years in the middle);
so too Christ's death at age 33, meant the earliest
Rapture date for 'balance', required another 33 years
to ensue; followed by the '7' owed Him, being 'paid' to the Temple; for He is the Temple the Temple depicts (destroy this Temple and I
will raise it (from sleep!) in three days, John 2:19).
Indeed, Paul
metered to it with his own 66, in Eph1:4.
That's why believers were miffed Tribulation didn't begin, four years
later at Temple's demise. Ouai! Paul then Peter and the others all died 'on time', kicking it
off! God then left everyone else,
behind!
Thus John's Gospel
meter parallels what should have happened
but didn't, to Christ. To warn his audience, what they deem the next Rapture date, probably won't happen: for They Are Not Maturing. For it had long remained part of Israel's calendar and
the Law, to know What Time It Is. Yet as we see in John 17's prayer, Christ
changed that, for Church (esp. verses 20 and following). He petitioned Father for whatever
number of souls (that Christ was about to pay for), Father wanted
to have (invoking
Isaiah 53:10). So Rapture's criterion is
Body Building. John 17 thus reminds
readers, of Ephesians 3:15-19 and 4:12-16 (as will 1John 4:12-16, three years later). For the Exodus, was to go
to the Promised Land. 'Exit
resurrection' Paul called it, exanastasis,
Philippians 3:11. Rapture is the
ultimate Exodus. See why John dates his
Gospel next to the 81st birthday of Christ?
So his Gospel is repackaged
to stress what folks need to recall, so they can
mature On Time. Of course, it didn't
happen, or we'd not be here. Yet look at
the flipside: 4000 years
of mandated date-setting, constant stress on the unity of time and space and
place to be at YOUR Temple appointments, l'moedth. But now suddenly, poof! All bets are off?? You can see why Jews split with Christians,
why preterism formed, why people became disaffected and some turned violently,
anti-Pauline. The Divine Operating System had always been
the same since the Exodus!
Now that Messiah exited, followed by Paul, Peter, and other 'greats' –
the new Church Operating System,
with its open-ended 'invisible interface' of no law, no timekeeping, no
rituals, but instead thinking only,
Ephesians 3:15-19.. didn't look right.
For it's the exact opposite, of the Mosaic
Law. DOS allegedly becoming COS
seemed like a P/SOS.
1John thus follows up, three
years later. Its prologue timeline is
much longer. Its new '21' and '56' dateline meters intertwine with this
Gospel's meter, to show 1John is written year 4187's start,
tagging back to John 1:5. For of course
their expectations were dashed again; they didn't grow, so
Rapture didn't occur. So in 1John's
metered prologue, he reminds them of the timeline again, yet updated with
reference to deadlines they long knew.
For 1John again compares, relative to Abraham
instead of David, when Temple and Christ should have
'fallen'. Again, these latter dates are
4186 and 4146, respectively. So we know they didn't
learn, from the Gospel. Wash, rinse, repeat.

1John
Revelation
John sets his Gospel meter's final stop, on Christ's age 98: 'old' Daniel 9:27
schedule of Time's End, start Millennium. L'moedth. John's not claiming Rapture, likely. Yes, end 4200 from Adam was the original End of Time, with Millennium
scheduled to begin year 4201 as a 98th birthday present to Christ
Who was Born when Saturn allegedly ate his kiddies, as Paul quipped in
Galatians 4:4. But Body ISN'T maturing, though it still CAN. Since they're drooling
over Rapture rather than building in Him, it won't happen 'on
time'. We moderns have the same problem
today, 2000+ long years after it should have
happened.
So now we've seen the 10-year variance, began when God
shifted the timeline from Abraham to Jacob to Joseph's enslavement. That got cut to 7, owing to David's being
crowned 'on time' relative to Abraham, yet not crowned king over all Israel; which didn't happen, until 7 years later. So Christ had to be born 3.5 years early, to
be 'on time' relative to David; but He
died 7 years early, due to being Rejected; so He dies 10 years earlier, vs. the
Abrahamic deadline. So the timeline
ends, 10 years short: 2090 years after
Abraham matured, Christ died.
Since He was originally slated to live 50 years under
the Abrahamic schedule, but dies 10 years earlier, that leaves 40 years, since
a) 50 years were equally allotted for harvesting
the gentiles, and b) of the 54-year credit initially due to Abraham's
advance maturation, 14 were spent rebuilding the Temple. So the 2nd Temple stood 40 more
years after He died, to compensate the Land
for the 40 years' delay in wandering the wilderness (Numbers 14:33).
God's pretty good at Balancing Time, huh. So even if you can't predict Rapture, you
still know that whatever time you have, c) you have it with him now, and d) since you cannot predict Rapture, you'd
better grow up now; because for
all you know, Rapture or your own death.. might happen 'today', Hebrews 3. While it is yet 'today'.
Now let's return to our century, long past these deadlines. Long tired of trying to account, Bible's
dates. So tired of the 'Rapture' issue,
we claim the term, in the uniquely English sense
of 'thrill', was invented by a female in the 19th century; utterly
ignoring Greek harpazw in 1Thess 4:17, which means
violent snatch up, raiders grabbing
women within some town they invaded. Latin there, is rapiemur:
not pleasant. Still, the au courant
claim ‘Rapture’ is a 19th century ruse, remains a favorite Catholic
or Calvinist contention, as their Replacement theology – different 'R' –
Rejects the fact Millennium and hence its promise to Jews, is vested in
Christ, Gal 4, Ps110.
Heb11:39-40 explained that; but promises to Jews are illegible to folks
who deem the 12 named Jewish tribes in Rev 7, as um, Gentile Christians. Origen started
that insanity; it's still quite popular, today.
So how to reconcile bc/ad?
3 + our 'ad', = His Age; 4106 +
our 'ad', = Adamic year; - 3 from His Age + 753, = Varro's Roman auc 'ad';
last week of December, use '4'
instead of 3. Or just add His age plus
Roman auc 750, or just use Adamic
year minus 4100. As you'll see on the next page and in John's
meters, Bible writers employ a mix of those conventions, with the Lord's Age as
the 'common denominator': thus you could use either 'base', and still know what
year is referenced.
Adamic
year begins on autumnal equinox; in the third week of the third month
later, Christ is born, 4103; it's the last week of Roman
year. Three months and three weeks later, is Passover. Christ
is Center, in the middle. Heh. My pastor quipped how droll, was Luke's writing: 'he
likes to finesse.'
So
watch this finesse: Luke 3:1 accounts per Roman auc. Augustus died in August, ad 14;
per Luke, Tiberius was in his 15th year, when the Lord was nearly 30, birthday at Chanukah = Saturnalia back then. Regnal years were on September
fiscal, but Tiberius began co-ruling with him, since 13 ad.
Bible often includes co-regnal years in a tally; there's no reason to
suppose Luke's not doing that. Further, if we should exclude
co-regnal years, some verse would alert us.
For if Bible distinguishes between years co-ruling
vs. years ruling alone for Solomon, 1Kings 6:1,
you’d think the Last David would get the distinction, too. So if
no distinction made, count all years. (Bible spent a lot of text on what David did during his
7 years of retirement, then 3 years after he died at age 77, traced through
1Kings 2:39; then, 1Kings 6:1 'in the fourth year'
post-death; so you know Solomon co-ruled
from David's age 70, to his death at age 77.
David wouldn't fully give up the crown, see 1Chronicles 22ff, hence the
mini-civil war 1Kings 1:1-2:39, relates.
So 'fourth year of Solomon' is pointed, not an 'error'. So if we would err by
adding co-regnal years, some Bible verse in Luke would have alerted
us.)
So back to Tiberius: we should count 12 + 15 = 27ad = year Christ age 30. Bible would just have you count back 15
years, to stress the equidistance, at which point you get (again) a 3 bc Birthdate. So per Roman auc, Christ born end of '4 bc', but per the Adamic September fiscal,
it's still '3'. Luke and other NT Bible
writers, knew and at times used, Varro's Roman auc;
Augustus favored it, and Claudius made Varro's auc,
law. Had Dionysius
Exiguus known all this? Everyone's
debated how he got his values, for centuries.
I can't explain Dionysius' derivation; but the Roman auc NT Bible writers all knew, got
reconciled. The auc had to be an
issue Bible would resolve. Here we see
how John's meter, reconciles it.
Another
Jewish and Roman practice is important to recall. The first year of 'x',
might be in the same calendar year, as x-1.
So to avoid double counting x and x-1, sometimes '1' is added; or, the
'first' year is accounted as the FOLLOWING year (i.e., accession year
accounting). When you find an unexpected
+1 or -1, ask whether a beginning versus end of year reconciliation, is
needed; next, ask whether the 'new
first' year overlaps with an 'old' ending year.

1John
Revelation
Disregard this section. It will be
rewritten. (Paul uses
Mary's endpoint of Lord age 56, but Ephesians is datelined using 56/2 years
after Christ died, same formula as Luke's own meter in /LukeDatelineMeters.pdf
or doc or htm.)
Now, I can explain how
Paul's Ephesians 1:3-14 dateline meter is based on Christ age 56 (nearly age
57, just before His 57th birthday), yet Paul's syllables = years,
exactly tally to the Roman auc ad
that our historians use. The 'Christ age 56' dateline is based on the Adamic 4103 when Christ was born, first quarter of it. So 4103 + 56 = 4159, when Paul writes. Differential between
Adamic and Roman is 4100 owing to the '7' above, since Christ was
born end 4102, on the
equivalent Roman fiscal. So net deferential is '6', ergo 4159 – 4100 = the Roman auc 'ad'
we use, of (end) '59', just as scholars have long speculated. Paul writes on two time tracks
which are the same year. You read one track as Adamic
years, formula of Christ's age + 4103.
Or, read with Roman auc, as they all knew what auc He was born: 750 + His Age. Simple!
So while you read the meter as ad, there is no variance; viz, each eta
in thelematos,
occurring thrice, marks the death of an Emperor whose successor, reversed the
'will' of his predecessor (deaths of Trajan, Macrinus, Diocletian). Peter follows the same convention,
when he tracks Paul's meter, syllable by
year. (Paul died, so 1Peter 1:1-12 makes a song from
Paul's meter. I need to edit that writeup, as I didn't
discover the dual base for the Christ-Age
dateline convention, until metering John.) Peter's meter starts in 18 bc, tagging Herod's rebuilding 2nd Temple, since
Peter's theme is also Temple Building.
This convention, is a deft way to play on the 3-year
adjustment Bible keeps tracking, to reconcile the shoulda-been Birth in 4106 Adamic, versus the 4103 Adamic when
Christ was actually born. It's akin to
John's Gospel omission of the four days
between Day Five Before.. and official Passover (in John 12:12ff compared to 13:1).
John slows to a crawling narrative of just that evening, in John Chaps
14-17; then he speeds Chapter 18 so
much, both Jews and Romans seem to act like Keystone Cops; then John slows the narrative again at 18:39,
to cover only the Real Preparation Day Crucifixion
events, speeches and crowds; yet the text remains perfunctory. So notice: John omits the four days preceding official Passover, which on the
Sanhedrin calendar that year ran four days too fast. ('Else the Lord couldn't be three days and nights in
the Grave, Matt12:40-41; yet rise on first of the week aka Sunday, which in the
Law is First Fruits, at the end of the LAST day of official
Passover, Num28:26.) Hence John's pointed parallel
omission of the four days after that same
official Passover to get to the Real
One, in John 18:39 et seq.
Again, any reader who knows Mosaic Law re Passover observance, would
detect the equidistant omissions. I sure
did. The whole purpose of Passover was
to memorialize Passion Week, in advance. To remember, so when it happened to Him,
you'd perceive the timing! For the only
way the Lord could be the Passover
Lamb and yet in the grave for three days AND nights,
would be if the calendar weren't
intercalated, omitting the four days between 360 and 365.
We should notice, too: for there's no way all that official
activity by Sanhedrin, Pilate (and by elision, Herod) could occur under three
days. What official
meeting of that many, takes less than four hours, counting preparation and
dismantling time, even when everyone knows the date and time,
well in advance? Yet here are
six unscheduled meetings (seven, counting
crowd assembly before Pilate when he washes his hands)!
The OT employed equidistant 'elision' too, re David. Seven whopping chapters (1 Chron 22ff) on his last seven years (versification is not in Bible, but whoever divided the
text, seemingly did it well). By contrast, 1Kings1:1-2:39, quickly spanned
the same seven years plus three, post-mortem.
So 1Kings 6:1 starts with a jarring, 'fourth year of Solomon'; it's
driven scholars wild, for centuries.
Like omitting Saul's regnal years in 1Sam 13.. you don't directly learn he ruled 40 years, until Acts 13:20ff.
So perhaps Paul thus stresses another
reason why there was a 3-year shortening of His Adamic
Birth Deadline: to 'coincide' with Temple Construction. For Solomon started
building the Temple, 3.5 years too late. Since Paul's letter is about Body as Temple (Eph 2 is bluntly on that topic), you have a cute 'prologue' for What if Rapture delayed due to Body Building. Paul's rolling series of What If Rapture (sevened, sub-)meters, would then have special punch. So too, his final elision of '56' (434 + 56 = 490).
Every Bible writer does it. (56-3.5 balances to Abraham in elision, just like Mary
does with her ‘40’ in elision, ending at 217 rather than 257.)
So in Eph1:3-14, each syllable = year, is double-entendre; read with an
Adamic base, or the Roman auc
base. They'd well know Christ's real age in what
Roman auc, when they got Paul's
letter; they'd know all those Roman
years up through '56', which clearly has to be our '59'. The dateline
formula itself, follows the same convention as Matthew's meter had
established: first, a years-from latest Bible book rule; so Matthew tagged
Malachi, as shown in the Matthew
videos. Second (or first) in
sequence, years-from (some event tied to) the Lord's Age: a quintessentially classic, years-from-the-King. Paul
follows both conventions: his 'Lord's Age' dateline copies Luke's, is based on
the Magnificat; she used years-from-Temple
just as Daniel did (and Peter will); Jews still use that convention,
today. She ends,
however, with His post-mortem Age, 40 years before the Mill. Luke picks his dateline from where she stopped, so too Paul.
Both books had to be sent out at the same time; or Luke's, was
disseminated a bit earlier. James' first
dateline is years-from-the-Lord's Death, same year as Luke wrote; James' second
dateline, tags Luke 1:78-79. (James' 2nd dateline seems to tag
Eph1:6; his text outline, topics and flow, parallel Ephesians; but I need to do
more testing. All three books tag Psalm
90 and Isaiah 53, in text and meter. The
'age' rule puts all three books in the same year; so their 1st
datelines, match.)
Finally, this dual dateline meter rule may explain
why Luke adds four prologue syllables to
Magnificat
('kai eipen Miryam'): Varro's auc
became law, under Claudius. (Luke's addition splits her ending 84 meter, into
pregnant 42's, evoking Jacob's TWO families departing Haran 21 years after
Jacob entered it; then into Egypt, 70 years later.) Mary's 160 (Luke 1:53), uses empimplemi to
play on her own pregnancy: pimplemi is the
Spirit-filling verb in LXX. Luke's + 4
neatly tallies it to our '164 bc',
1st Chanukah. Cute, huh.

All that B-for-Body number crunching, assumed common
knowledge of Bible Dates. There were Deadlines to track.
Back in the 1st century, Deadlines
converged every three years. Pp. 134-135
of /Eph1DecreeSyllablesREPARSED.pdf plots them; for their 'fit' to God's Orchestration of Time from Adam through Christ, see /GeneYrs.xls .
Jews still plot dates like this; download 'Kaluach' from
Aish.com. Jewish calendars today are
wrong in almost every way, as they use lunar years; many Jews thus reject that calendar. Yet the tracking idea,
remains.
The
Levites were tasked to keep the calendars.
For unlike other nations, God designed Time around Messiah (Hebrews 1)
and Messiah would come from Israel (Deut 32:8, Acts 17:26). So her 'appointments' (l'moedths)
were critical. Hence she alone was
banished from the Land for not keeping her sabbath
years (whole
years where you were to Study Word
and Do No Work).
She missed 49 of those, from Rehoboam until returning from Babylon. (Eusebius erred to claim 70 years missed; scholars have
repeated his mistake, ever since. Now
think: if 70 years were missed, Israel
would not have been mandated by God to return to the Land, the year Daniel
prays (49th, first metered dateline). God's the ONLY King making Decrees in Jer 25,
29, which Gabriel cites in Dan 9:24, as Daniel just read
Jeremiah. Of course no human decree, is ever found!
Yet we blame Bible as 'inscrutable' or even claim 'problem passage', to
hide our ineptitude!)
It's
a scary thing: All Time Depends On
You. No wonder Israel stopped
properly Keeping Time. Yet God vested all Israel's promises in
Christ, 2Sam7, Gal3; we Church have our
own covenant, the other 'wall' in Ephesians 2, Psalm 110; Book of Hebrews
explains Church As Time Bridge, in
detail. For He Will Return. So, first Israel and now Church counted
on.. and counted down, His Comings.
Here's a simplified chart. John
uses his audience's knowledge of these Deadlines, for
his meter.
Year
from Adam's Fall |
Key Millennium-Related
Events, Anniversaries, Deadlines |
1000th anniversary
of David's Hebron Kingship, 1050+1000 from Abraham's maturation in 2046. Two
different timelines, here: David's is shorter, so is the intervening deadline.
Due to shifting timelines, we deem Bible mistaken. Instead,
we are. Time is a loan. If not 'repaid', it ends. Just like the Flood. Rapture doctrine is another application of it.
Here, the Deadline was to crown the progenitor of
Messiah by 1050 from Abraham.
By contrast, the 'regular' deadline was the 3rd 1000 from
Adam, which was 3.5 years later. God maturing David early, shortens Time Forward to Messiah by 3.5 years, vs. the old
timelines (from Adam, Noah, even Abraham).
For to balance from David to Messiah, is 1000 years, not 1050. Bible prophecy numbers aren't
merely prophetic. They are Deadlines, Rules. This one, shifts the deadlines upward 3.5
years. So Israel's Time
Allotment, had to balance to it. That's what Bible meter, shows. |
|
Messiah Year 1, 1000th anniversary of David's United
Kingship: Christ must
be born then. Technically, He was born
25 Chislev. So His Year 1 counts for
all of 4103, which began on the Adamic fiscal. It is
also the 1437th
year of the Exodus: note the shortfall (3 years, 3 months 3 weeks prior, is Chanukah).
Per Psalm 90, the
original deadline was 4106, 1440 years after the Exodus. (Moses wrote 40 years after the Exodus, at the start
of the 1051st year after the Flood. Dateline is 63 sevens, his dateline, counts
back 390+40 to when Israel was enslaved; plus Joseph's own 10 years of
enslavement as a teenager, equals the '400' year promise by God to Abraham,
in Genesis 15:13-16. The 390 is an
equidistant reconciliation: Abraham supermatured 390 years after the
Flood. Moses was the fourth
generation, but due to translation error in Exodus 6:20, we don't know that,
see /MisTrans.htm#Jochebed
. Paste the link if it doesn't work
within your browser.) Moses' Psalm 90 timeline was
bifurcated; first, as Jews even know
today (but miscount), it was the Map of Time: 5250 allotted years from
Adam's Fall to end of Millennium; metrically depicted in five
70's, as there was one 70 per 1050 (490+70+490). Since
Israel would end up 14 years short of her allotment by Nehemiah's return,
Moses esconces that 14 as part of Messiah's
lifetime forward, in the first 84 (Psalm 90:1-4); then, Moses
debits 14 from the last 70-year voting period, in which Nehemiah
returns. (Psalm 90:16-17 is 56 syllables = years, predicts
Nehemiah's Daniel-9-and-1Kings-9 invoking prayer, see Neh 1 and 2:5. See the 70-year timing, in /GeneYrs.xls
, row 146. Matthew 1's ending
dateline 476 meter, counts straight back to that same year.) Moses' other use of Psalm 90 as a
timeline, was vanilla: its same words, characterize the time forward 350 syllables = years (Judges). So between the two
timelines, you knew from the terminus of this one, that another 1050, remained; at its
own terminus, Messiah's birth was
due. Sum: year 1656 Flood, 1050 years later Moses
writes, 350 years after that, 1050 years after that = 4106. That was the
deadline for Messiah's birth, pre-David. However, Messiah had
to be born 3.5 years earlier, to comply with David's 1000th year
Kingship deadline, here.
Ergo, our 3-6 year variance in bc/ad,
if Flood date is misaccounted (and it usually is). Isaiah 53
tracks this same timeline shift, starting at David's birth, and going to the
Last David's death. I've not done all
the videos demonstrating Isaiah's tracking yet; but click here for an
overview video. Daniel 9 is
the final update on post-David
but pre-Christ, accounting. Daniel
knows this, and meters his prayer accordingly, tracking to Isaiah 53 via his
first dateline; and with his second
dateline, he picks up where Moses left off, praying 511 years later (73 x
7). Since we misaccount his 490 using lunar years, we don't see the timeline
shift. (Daniel
picked 73 sevens as his second dateline;
Moses' end point is 1050 left on the clock, to Messiah's scheduled
birth. Daniel prays 511 years later,
Nov. 538 bc = 73 sevens. So he 'tags' Moses' end point at 1049 (play
on 49th year of Temple Down).
73 is not divisible by seven but is prophetic, since Temple dies 2nd
time, at Christ Age 73. By then, it had been up 516 years, dying the 1510th
anniv. of the Exodus. Daniel's meter
develops two timelines, interweaving Israel's history in the past with what
God gave him to know from Daniel 2 onward about the future, to craft his
legal brief and then his petition.
Very complicated, but he tracks Bible verses via the syllables to
match them to the specific kings in question, so you can follow him in
Bible. For he uses Kings and
Chronicles. I plotted all that, with
the relevant Bible verses you can compare yourself, in 'Footnote E' of the
'Daniel 9' link, above.) |
|
Messiah ministry start. King must announce at same age David
became king: 30. So He does, Luke 4:19.
Only Messiah can invoke it (vv 20-21). |
|
1000th anniversary
of David's Retirement Age 70 (not
death), and 980th
anniversary of 1st Temple Dedication. Matthew double-datelines his gospel this
year. Year
Christ actually dies, age 33 since prior Chanukah, at beginning of 4136 on what should
have been Passover, had the Sanhedrin intercalated properly. So He becomes the Passover on the Real
Passover, four days after the 'official' one. The Real Passover He died on,
is the 1470th 'birthday'
of the original Passover, to the very day (490 x 3). So on Good WEDNESDAY, He dies. Rises 3.5 days later, just as He said He would,
Matt12:40-41. As a result, Christ dies
7 years earlier than scheduled; this
too-early death is the reason for the Temple siege, to 'pay back' for the
lost time. |
|
1000th anniv. of
David's death at age 77.
Isaiah 53's meter is based on this, and so is Luke's genealogy. See last seven chapters in 1 Chronicles,
plus 1Kings 1:1-2:39, to realize 1Kings 6:1's '4th year' of
Solomon measures from when David died, obviously en toto,
the eleventh year of Solomon (including co-regency and the three prior
years when David was dead). This is the endpoint in Daniel 9's '62 weeks',
to complete '483'; but scholars miss that too, as they use lunar years,
though God never does. He only
reconciles by birthdays, which can only mean
solar accounting. See begats and
Exodus 12 mandate, or any dates in Bible you like, to see God never uses lunar years for Bible dates. At year end, 57 Years remain to
the Millennium; in the Mosaic Law, this is memorialized in advance by 50+7 standing for Pentecost/Jubilee plus
Passover/Passion Week. Numbers 28:26,
start counting the Omer at the END of Passover week, not 2nd day
of it. Because, 57+57 = # of days from
Passover to Pentecost on the calendar plus from
Pentecost to 9th Av. Which Titus followed to the very day, in 70 ad Temple takedown. In meter, this is often shortened to 56,
for days between: for you can be rescued, even at the last moment, When He Comes. Hence a
REVISED and SHORTENED outer limit when Christ
was SCHEDULED to die: +1, as He was
to die at its start, on Passover. So at its start = 58 years, the doubled
Manasseh meter in Daniel 9:11-12. For Manasseh, was the cause of Temple Doom,
2Kings 21:11-15, 23:26. This year also should have been the 1000th anniversary of 1st
Temple's Construction Start, but Solomon delayed it. So if you tally Genesis to Revelation, you
always come up three or seven years short or three or seven years over,
versus other Bible timelines; for by the time Christ was born, the earlier
deadlines were superceded.
Hence reconciliation becomes necessary. (Magnificat meter
and Paul's
Ephesians, are reconciliation examples). |

1John
Revelation |
2100th anniversary
of Abraham's supermaturity (signified by birth of Isaac), the
original ending for Israel's 'time'. 1000th
anniversary of 1st Temple Construction Start. 1050th anniv. of David's Hebron
Kingship. Idea that the
'loan' of time can be extended, if the 'building' was going on. So when folks returned from Babylon to
Israel, Time didn't end. They were
building. Precedence for Church:
Rapture occurs when we stop building
(growing in Christ), just as Temple went down when Israel
stopped (see Romans
11). Except 'our' temple is bodies, John 17,
Eph2, 3:15-19, Eph4:13 (Rapture Criterion), 1Cor12. Only then, do we get
Raptured. Due to
apostasy coinciding with Body Completion. |
|
Should have been the 1000th
anniversary of 1st Temple's Construction End AND Dedication, but Solomon delayed it, 1Kings
6:1-8:1. Also, the last 50 years to the Millennium,
for 'harvesting the Gentiles', memorialized as Jubilee and Pentecost, in the
Mosaic Law. This period is assumed in
the Daniel 9 accounting, and is considered 'Gentile Time', so is not debited
from the 490; but is in addition to it.
It occurs between
Daniel 9:26 and :27. |
|
1000th anniversary of
1st Temple's Construction End.
1050th anniv. of David's United Kingship. |
|
1000th anniversary
of 1st Temple Dedication, 1st Kings 8:1. 1490th anniversary of the
Exodus, 2500th anniversary of the Flood's end, 2050th
anniv. of Jacob's birth, 3100th anniv. of Noah's birth. |

40 years to start of the
Millennium. It's really the start of 4161. Magnificat
counts to 4160 when Mary's future Son would be age 57, nearly 58 -- to
balance the 3.5 year shortfall and the 53.5 year credit 'owed' Gentiles for
Abraham's too-early maturation. So she
reverse-balances 40 at year 4160, and
57 at year 4143. Zecharias' meter (see last page of the Magnificat link) then goes another 80 years, to 40 years
after Mill start. Daniel stopped at 56 prior to Mill (Dan 9:19),
at the Lord's scheduled death year (4143). That's why
God's reply of the 69 weeks, stops at the same place. Mary thus flips Daniel, stops 40 years
prior. Metered passages often balance
to Millennium like this, subdividing them (leaving in ellipsis or subtracting or adding 57, 50,
40, 14, 7). Paul and Luke pick 'Lord Age 56'
as their datelines; each balances to
the above. They all play with 16-17 or
23 years on either side. I'm not yet
sure why. |
|
Lord Age 60. His own private '40', remains, to balance
to Abraham's age 100. |
|
1500th anniversary
of the original Exodus. 2000th
anniv. of Jacob's covenant (being renamed 'Israel', Gen 32:24ff). |
|
Christ dead as long as He had
been alive,
potential Rapture date for that reason.
Based on Psalm 90:15's 'give us as many good days as bad days'. Meters often balance to this mid-point. Idea that the Time Loan for Messiah's life,
has been paid off by this year (at its beginning). |
|
Year 1077 from David's Hebron
kingship. Bible plays on Year 1077s; I charted them, see the 'Year 1077s' link
at bottom of first page in Ephesians1REPARSED,
as Paul makes an issue of this date.
For Isaiah 53's
meter is based on 1078. Also, Matthew's 476 meter uses
this 1077 benchmark. 2046 +
1077 + 1077 = 4200 for Abraham, and 3096 + 1077 + 1077 = 5250 for David, since 2046
+ 1050 reconciled Abraham to David's Hebron Kingship. Also, here the Christ is age 70,
so folks believed Trib/Rapture should happen next. Paul had benchmarked this with the
clever double-entendre 'hagious', in Eph 1:4.
So, seven years after outhen
happened instead, John writes his Gospel, playing on Mark's '14', written
late 68 ad. Order of books in 68 ad was 1 and 2 Peter, who then
dies; then Jude, who extensively
quotes 2 Peter and then dies (or disappears); then Mark; then Hebrews, which
bases its outline (flow of points) on both Peter and Mark's Gospel. Click here for the
starting video on how Hebrews 'wraps' to Mark. |

1John
Revelation |
40 years after He died, when 2nd
Temple destroyed by Titus. 2000th anniversary of Joseph's
enslavement, when the 490 baton switched to him (Exodus was 490 years later).
4176 is also 1000th 'birthday' of Rehoboam's rule
start; he stopped observing the
sabbatical years, as did everyone after him, resulting in the 1st
Temple's destruction. Folks were
expecting the Trib to begin here. |
|
When
Israel destroyed (i.e., Masada). Year 1077 from David's United
Kingship. In Bible meters, 1078 divides by 7, tags the start of
next year. Matthew uses a
1078 measure; for Isaiah 53 is 1078
syllables (with
ellipses of 252 and 364 = 586 bc
to 30 ad);
Paul uses it in his Eph1, anaphora sevens. Matthew videos show his math;
Eph1
REPARSED shows it, in Paul's '78 sevens' anaphora. See also 4173. |
|
40 years after Christ should
have died,
another possible Trib-start date. Same age as Moses during the Exodus year,
Exodus 7:7. |
|
Potential mid-Trib date for Temple desecration, assuming it
was rebuilt and assuming Trib began in 4183. Equals 50 years after Christ
actually died. Or, an alternative Trib Start Date, as 14
years remain: the 'Harvesting
Gentiles' 50-year promise, is 'paid off'.
|
|
54 years from Christ's actual
death, full
payback on Abraham's too early maturation (2100-2046), made this a potential
Rapture date. |
|
1050th anniv. of
David's death. Last chance for Trib to start on the normal
(pre-Church) timeline; penultimate chance for it to be desecrated per
mid-trib Daniel 9:27 (if Trib started 4190), if rebuilt. This is end of year, so the actual last
Trib start year would be 4194. |
|
Outermost pre-Church
deadline for mid-Trib, Daniel 9:27.
Also 1050th anniv. of 1st Temple Construction
Start. This too is an end of year
measure; the actual latest Trib mid-point is based on fiscals equating to
4197.5; for the Mill starts when
fiscal 4200 has ENDED (3rd week September 4200 'becomes' start
4201 for Adamic, the following March for Abrahamic, with the Lord's 98th
birthday in between). |
|
Millennium begins, really, Day
One of 4201. We'll be there, as 2nd
Advent Horse, Church Calvary (Rev 19:14, etc). Technically, Mill starts in rolling
fiscals: autumnal equinox ends 4200, so it 'becomes' 4201; His Birthday on 25 Chislev, 'becomes' His 98th year; when vernal equinox ends its own 4200, it
'becomes' 4201 of sacred year. Ezekiel
39:14 in context, might imply the months between equinoxes,
are used to recover from the final war.
So the longstanding Jewish
contention of Him coming on Rosh HaShanah, might be valid. That would be the earliest such date. Depends on which fiscal has precedence. I bet it's His 98th Birthday
that begins Mill. Can't prove that
true, though. Could well be that
vernal equinox, governs. |
|
Christ age 100, same allotment as
Abraham had. |
|
1050th 'birthday' of Temple
Dedication,
from 3156. Some meters in Paul,
reconcile to it. Noah's 3150th
birthday, at year start. |

E. John's meter seems to mix Expository or Elegaic
Greek meter elements, but there are many styles. John's cadence in all his dateline meters,
seems at least evocative of them. http://chs.harvard.edu/wa/pageR?tn=ArticleWrapper&bdc=12&mn=3989
attempts to trace the history and structure of such Greek meters.
One of the major licenses of Greek
epic meter, is whether to use elision.
John avoids elision, as was apparently the fashion in the later 1st
century. Traditionally and earlier in
the century, elision was considered elegant.
Later in the century, folks preferred clarity, and 'hiatus' was no
longer considered gauche. So John's meter preserves hiatus, between
words.
There were extensive customs and
rules for Elision,
in first-century Greek. Start at page 29
of http://books.google.com/books/about/A_Greek_Grammar_for_Colleges.html?id=TK9MAAAAMAAJ
and keep reading
through section 77, page 45. Or try this
book, page 127ff: http://books.google.com/books?id=SEsTAAAAYAAJ&vq=This%20combination%20of%20vowels&pg=PA128#v=snippet&q=%22this%20combination%20of%20vowels%22&f=false
These are Attic rules, but Bible
sometimes uses them. It's a mistake to
call the Bible's Greek 'koine'. There
are a bizillion Atticisms and sudden switches into drama Greek. Just as we in English mix common slang with
formal words and even elegant sentence constructions -- so did the Greeks. Since Bible meter is keyed to sevening, this
mix occurs often.
So pronunciation rules in Attic
Greek, preserved in all the dramas (even as we preserve Shakespearean English),
would be known to the audience and would be used by the writer.
Perhaps another reason why John
doesn't use elision, is that his meter in both 1 John and Revelation piggyback
onto his Gospel meter, 'updating' it for the fact he writes again, years
later. For Revelation, its dating, is
also trenchant: instead of Millennium starting on the pre-Church
schedule, believers get a classical Greek quadrilogy about those events, with no fixed future time: clever way to play on an undefined gap in time, by using hiatus. Ouch.

1John
Revelation
Important: yellow-highlighted sections below, are variants in Sinaiticus a), b),
for verse 3; and in verse 5, Sinaiticus a) and Stephanus, per BibleWorks
9. In verse 3, the variant reverses the verbs;
this has no effect on syllable count;
but there's an extra
kai; each such variant
word is marked in teal/green. Since the reversed verbs thus preserve the same order as initially presented in verse 1,
and since the extra kai is both
grammatically necessary and fits John's style, I'd bet money that the Sinaiticus
variant is what John actually wrote; so too, verse 5's variant, corrected for
case: it adds ap, which is his repeated stress
in the passage. Sinaiticus b) in verse 5
adds agape tes, then preserves the genitive
but changes the spelling to epangelias. That variant adds four syllables. They don't fit the grammar or meter pattern,
so are excluded.
As corrected, verse 5's ending meter matches Paul's
Ephesians 1:3-14 central trebled anaphora meter THREE TIMES. Moreover, the total meter count exactly
interlocks with the Revelation meter, which together exactly tie back again, to
Paul's anaphora. All this, can't be a
coincidence. This section will seek to explain
why, and show how the unity of his meter
ties to other germane Bible passages, principally Paul's Ephesians 1:3-14,
3:15-19, and 4:12-16. Textual ties are
obvious; but the meter ties, are astounding.

Meter's Import
Watch
how 1John's meter 'adds' to his Gospel for a memorably updated
math, history and prophecy lesson. Remember, the audience well knows when he wrote, for they got his
letter within the year.
Recall too, neuter 'hos' means Christ And
Everything About His Story, as purpose for history. Cute wordplay on Him as God: note how his
meters exploit meanings of kai. Again my italics
'translate' the witty numbers' integration with his text. Substitute 'the One Who' for ho in what follows...
Dear
Children, |
|
|
(v.1) I write
you again, |
10 |
years after Temple Fell, still testifying to
}O h=n avpV avrch/j( o] avkhko,amen (4187 from Adam's Fall, 4 Chislev, Christ nearly age 84; end 80 AD using Roman auc, 70+10. Concatenated, piggybacked play on his own
Gospel's start and on 'I prepare a
home for you' in John 14-17, and again play on Eph 1:3-14, 2, 4:12-16; latter passage is reversed, in 1John4:12-16.) |
which
Fall, was |
21 |
years before it should
be desecrated; since o] e`wra,kamen
toi/j ovfqalmoi/j h`mw/n , we didn't believe (i.e., John's terminus confession in John 21:20ff. Text presages 1John2:26-3:2, by tagging
future Temple Desecrated
date. Temple should be rebuilt then
desecrated 4197.5, Dan9:27. That's also 1050th 'birthday'
of 1st Temple on 1 Ethanim,
21.5 years vs. vernal equinox. John deftly writes at midpoint,
setting the meter theme.
Math: Temple fell 4176, final assault started Passover, ended 9th
Av, fifth month of Exo12-mandated vernal equinox fiscal. Adamic fiscal began 6 months prior: so 9th
Av is its 11th month. On vernal fiscal, 4176 + 10.75 = 4186.75, is
newly 4187, Adamic (21.5/2=10.75, so .75*365/30 = 4.5th day of 9th
month). Balance: 4186.75 + 10.75 =
4197.5 = 1 Ethanim, first day of 4198 Adamic.
There are also 21 days from 4 Chislev to 25 Chislev. Cute. |
so I
also write you, |
39 |
years after He too should have died on the
Abrahamic schedule, having become the Way Truth Life, o] evqeasa,meqa kai. ai` cei/rej h`mw/n evyhla,fhsan (Reminder of John 14:6, Hebrews 3
warning. Math: Abraham's maturation fiscal comes from
Noah, so is based on vernal equinox.
That fiscal 4186
isn't over yet, so –39 = 4146 = 2046 + 2100.) |
which
deadline, is also |
47 |
years before the start of the final
pre-Church, scheduled Tribulation, peri. tou/ lo,gou th/j zwh/j& (start of 4147+47 is 4194, the Lord's age 91; so John reconciles the superceded
Abrahamic deadline with the Davidic, to show God is still 'on time'. Note how clause ends in aposiopesis, double
entendre: we could be Face to Face
with Father by then.. 7 more years. So by start of 4194, potential indicative –
maybe He'll even be revealed, aka we're Raptured.
John now writes 14 years prior to Mill. Two 'sevens': first just started; then sheni, another = latest scheduled
Trib, Lord's Age 91=4194. So Church has
a pregnant '14' of her own: 1) to get 'raptured' on time, so 2) the REST of
history, can complete. Since that same
warning went unheeded in Hebrews 3, 11:39-40, John renews it, via meter: Church
Bridges Israel's Time which vested in Christ, Psalm 110, Gal3's
'Seed', etc. 4195 will thus be Revelation's date.) |
(v.2) For the |
56th |
year before the final mid-point, was His
40th year, when He was supposed to die: kai. h` zwh. evfanerw,qh (John's v.2 text
plays on the Rapture 56, having just played the 14, also tied to when he
writes: He will again 'appear' when we're raptured up. Sets up text in 1John2:26-3:2, and later, Revelation. So he
crafts a trio of equidistant puns on TimelineShifts
to stress how God Orchestrates Time.
John writes in a) the 40th year after Christ should have
died at age 40, under the Abrahamic schedule and fiscal,
had David died age 80; also Christ's
40th year, had He instead died on 1000th anniv. of David's
actual death. In a), 4146
+ 53.5; there's no sevened midpoint, just the last 3.5 years of history. But in b), His 40th year began start of 4143; +56 = 4198, when
finished. But the 56th year
starts on 55th anniversary; so midpoint is still 'in' the 56th
year, 4197.5, under Dan9 schedule. Ergo, c) equidistant 3.5's for the 'Boat'
in the Year of Church: aft, the
Abrahamic and Davidic schedules; fore, between Trib mid-point, and Year 4200, end. NT writers
all play on 40+56; since 40 won't divide by 7, they reverse-play the '40',
via 56. John also plays mid-Trib math, as we are Temple Now: Eph2, 1Peter.
John thus reminds readers of the '58' in his Gospel: 4136+58.
So the '56' will then be paid +2, as
His actual Death was 7 years earlier than
scheduled. John thus
reminds readers of the 56's in Psalm 90 esp. verses 16-17, Isaiah 53 re
Temple, in Luke and Magnificat's
ending, in Paul's variant combos of Eph 1:3-14, and in Mark. For that prophetic data already came true,
esp. Paul's Eph1:3-4
syllables = Christ Age 56-84 (or 56-84 ad,
take your pick). So indeed the Life
did Manifest, even after He Went Home, playing on Luke 1:78-79, Zecharias' coverage
of the Mill through Mill+40. Heh.) |
For His
Ministry manifested |
66 |
years prior to that midpoint,
kai. e`wra,kamen kai. marturou/men (John's Gospel
narrative piggybacked on Luke 4's, when the Lord started His Ministry. 1John recalls it, via 40 -10= 30 at 4132's end, to also remind readers of the first equidistant
Pauline Rapture date MISSED -- when He'd have been dead as long as alive. Roman regnal years also ran on September
fiscals. So look: 4133 Adamic, 85 days
into, He turns 30. That's Tiberius 15th
year, So start Tiberius 15 = start of
Adamic 4133. But it's 4132 on a
Jan-Dec fiscal, so again he plays with midpoints, just as he did with
Chanukah in his '21' meter. |
so in
His |
74th |
year, Temple Went Down kai. avpagge,llomen u`mi/n (Play on '76'
meter in John's Gospel: a) Christ age
30 just after start of Adamic 4133 + 74 = 4207, seventh year into Mill. Pointed Church lateness
problem. Sets up letter's theme of
'fellowship' and hence maturation; b) Temple fell in Christ's 74th
year, before that Birthday (end Adamic 4176). Finally, c) John plays the .5's fore and
aft again, since Temple fell just before mid-year Abrahamic vernal equinox,
fiscal.) |
even
now, after His |
82nd |
year, th.n zwh.n th.n aivw,nion . (John reminds them again of his Gospel,
written Adamic year 4184, seven years after Temple fell,
'matching' Moses Exodus age. Here, he
invokes Isaiah 53:1's 'who has believed our report'. For the Lord's 82nd year began
ON his 81st birthday; surely they all got his Gospel by now. So just as Temple exited, Church will too;
she's wandered in wilderness for lo these 40 years, Eph 4:14! How ironic: Isa53:1's LXX uses anangellw,
but John uses from-source apangellw, yet they still don't believe enough; even as,
the disciples didn't, viz John's confession in his last Gospel chapter!) |

here via the same '98' meter as in his Gospel: 4200, End of the year, Adamic 4201 Mill start; or even ON
His Birthday it begins. Or, final
fiscal 4201 begins three months and three weeks after that, at vernal
equinox. Yet I'd bet Day of 2nd
Advent, is His 98th birthday, given
meaning of His Birth and Chanukah.
Text plays on Zech 14:6-7, Day that is night, 2nd
Advent. Note how 1John's meter keys to
the same 98 via the Abrahamic deadline. Meaning?
All Time Reconciled In Him. All the way back to Adam, now that (net) Gentile Time is Repaid. At this point, John starts tracking Paul's coverage of
Roman history parallels with upcoming Christian apostasy. For the Roman auc ad
equivalent on His 98th birthday, is 94, Eph 1:5's first
clause.) |
(v.3) So 21
years after I write, is the new Adamic century's |
108 |
th year; which is also the 1050th
birthday of 1st Temple's Dedication, Noah's 3150th
birthday year, and 64 years after Body-Building Harvesting the Gentiles, began; so as Paul wrote, even if the Rapture
doesn't occur by then, our 'report' will still be o]. avkhko,amen kai e`wra,kamen (John now starts to shift among four
'fiscal' year measures: a) Adam's
'civilization' fiscal, ties to Temple at autumnal equinox, 1Kings 8:1; b) Noah=Abraham's, ties to Israel's sacred
calendar; for Noah was born on what became the Exodus, later known as 1st
day of Passover via Gen 7-8 LXX text, not always BHS; c) the Lord's own 'fiscal', and d) Roman auc, our calendar year. For John now ties to Paul's own
Anno Domini conversion.
Wow. So what if the
Rapture hasn't happened by Year 4207 from Adam, first
'tagged' at syllable = year 74, Temple
Down?? Future history's theme
is Word Stands the Test of Time,
fulfilling John 17. John also plays
off Zechariah's
speech, which took you 40 years into the
Millennium. John will go much farther,
since Paul did. For Paul's meter maps the future
of Rome and Church, and then his anaphora meter totals, remap the trends
to show God
Uses Believers Keeping Word, To Keep Word Free. To make the meter
memorable, Paul creates four 'quarters' of Church, playing on Noah's Year in
the Boat (per LXX text, not always BHS), just as Daniel 9 had done: for Noah
enters and leaves the boat, on what later became, Pentecost. So John tags Paul's meter directly. John's meter sums = God's metered reply in
Dan9:24-27 = 231 syllables, to tag it.
Paul did that too, in
his anaphora, centering on 215-231 ad,
during which (under the Severans), Church rapidly declined. Peter tracked Paul
syllable by year, for the same reason. So John's
meter here, tags the Daniel/Pauline passages for reader reference, to set the
theme for 1John's import: Church
Is The 62nd aka 69th
Week, To Complete Time.
John then selectively tracks what Paul charted. (My pastor taught John's theme for 50 years; he didn't know there was meter to affirm
the doctrine; he got it from Bible text. He explains how, in his Ephesians series: it runs seven years,
for an hour a day. After hearing that
series, it was easy for me to 'get' what Paul meant, once I saw the meter.) 1John's
dateline meter is also tightly integrated with the later Revelation,
to play on Paul's 'Year of Church', which played on Noah's Year in Boat. John's combined dateline meter (1John and
Revelation) truncates that Year to 357, which is 7 short of the 364 days Noah
was in the Boat. Yeah,
because Church isn't in the Tribulation. Same 357, from God's telling Zerubbabel
what DAY Messiah would be born (Haggai 2).. until the first Chanukah. Here, John tracks to Paul's Eph1:3-14 meter, as a
'reply' to Ephesians, esp. Eph 3:15-19, 4:12-16; for Eph4:13 is the Rapture criterion, Body Reaching Maturation Of Christ. So to dovetail, John starts at Paul's Eph1:5
syllable = 105, but converts into Adamic years.
Christ is age 105. That's pregnant, as Paul's text is on
'sonship', covers Roman auc
years of Trajan. Paul's
eudokian anaphora begins at
syllable = ad year, 106. Since 'eudokian' means your
satisfaction in your own decision which you approve, it signifies autonomy. Ties neatly to Isaiah 53:1,
just as 1John does with his apangellw. In Paul,
the 106th syllable = ad
year, signifies Spiritual
autonomy threat due to Christian politicization and
anti-semitism. Paul bookends the
threat three times, centering it on 215-231 ad: when Demetrius of Alexandria meant to
sideline Origen, by creating a Roman 'bishop list' with
Peter on it. John thus plays
on Adamic year 4206/4207, which begins late September
aka 'Fall' (get the pun). So it's New
Year's, day the 1st Temple was dedicated, 1050 years prior. In Noahic/Abrahamic fiscal years = sacred
calendar, it's still 4206, still 3150th anniv. of Noah's birth (in
September he'd be 3150.5 years old).
The Lord turns 105, at Chanukah.
Roman auc equivalent 'ad' would turn 102, the next week. Mill start was at end of Paul's huiothesian, how cute.
That's when we should have
entered 'sonship', in our own eternal
bodies. Else, God had Paul predict
fathering apostasy, if no Rapture. We
can easily prove that massive apostasy, simply by reading the vile Clement, Justin Martyr,
Ignatius etc.
writings. So too, all the 'church fathers' trashed
Bible. Yet we laud them? For the sake
of Christian fellowship? You've no fellowship with
Christians, if none with God, theme of 1John! Finally, '108'
is 57+7 years from (maybe Bul/Marchesvan) 4143, Davidic
deadline for the Lord's death. Schedule caught up. (Jewish regnal years are accounted by vernal equinox.) Finally, since John writes in 4187 , he effectively repeats
the cute '21' germinate Bible meter, playing again on equidistance. For Jacob re-enters Land 21 years after he went to wive, 490 years after
Flood. So John now refers back to his dateline
21 re Untimely Temple Demise,
warning that just as Flood happened and Temple went down, so too Rapture
happens due to apostasy. Ouch.) |

th year; (John
tags Paul in the middle his 1st eudokian
anaphora, Eph1:5
syllable = 114 ad. Cute: Age 97 = 98th year, end
v.2; so now, 21st year
after that becomes 118th year.
Paul's 21 meter; and 121 in Paul
means 121 ad; so now John uses 117 as the Lord's Future
Age = 120 Mill Adamic; His 118th year begins on his 117th
birthday, even as the Adamic began its own 121st year. Heh. John expects
his audience to know Paul's anaphora well:
Word Preserved, despite
persecution by fellow Christians who
sporadically eat each other. Paul tracks future
Church history via the anaphora math.
Peter wrapped his 1Peter1:1-12
meter around Paul to make a marching song; so as the Pauline 'schedule'
elapsed, folks had an 'antiphony' of verses for refreshment. So does John add a 'chorus', given his
slow, roping drama Greek? Paul's eudokian anaphora covers 231 syllables = 33 sevens or 77
threes: so John meters his prologue, to match. 231 is also the length of God's metered
reply in Daniel 9:24-27. Obvious
thematic tie. The historical tie, is
even more shocking. Back in Ephesians,
the first eta of Paul's thelematos
marks ad 117, when Trajan will
die. This same eta's
next two occurrences, mark the deaths of two later Emperors whose successors
also reverse the deceased's goals: Macrinus and Diocletian. Paul centers on them both, uncannily. His 'eudokian
interplay' is so prophetically accurate, it's upsetting.) |

poignant and common tie to Paul's 133rd syllable = AD
year, in Eph 1:6,
which begins Paul's epainon anaphora. (You'll need Bibleworks fonts to read the
htm, free download at http://www.bibleworks.com/fonts.html
.) That's when Bar Kochba rebellion
began, 132-135 – the 135 is 21 years after 114 ad =117 in the previous clause; it was the last of a
rolling series of Israel's revolts across the Roman world, that had started
under Trajan. Finally, as Paul had done, John ties to Zecharias' speech:
it keyed off Magnificat to plot Time, up to the first 40 years post-Millennium
(Luke 1:78-79), how people sitting in
darkness of death, have The Light manifested to them. Yeah, and if 2nd Advent didn't
occur by that 40th year, the world still sits in the dark, with
only Word to enlighten. Luke's Gospel thus stressed Light = Chanukah = Christ's
Birth. Paul, Peter, James all tie to
it; Isaiah 53:2 did the same, tagging Manasseh at syllable 133. Manasseh was the stated cause for Temple's Fall,
2 Kings 23:26-27. So now the Bar
Kochba prophecy of that history repeating, is sadly echoed by John. So once Jerusalem is
razed and a pig temple sits where the real one was, the Temple in Heaven
– theme of Hebrews 9-10 -- remains in your heart;
so you can fellowship with God via His Preserved Word.) |

th year. (Paul's Ephesians 1: 6
introduced his first epainon
anaphora, which
interlocks with the eudokian, to tell a nested story of how Church will
become apostate; that Christians will
thus be persecuted, and then will persecute each other; the intent being
always, to trap and destroy Scripture.
Yet these very persecutions will free those Keeping the Word to leave the afflicted areas. Peter wraps to Paul's meter,
to reinforce that meaning. Here, John
does, too. Fellowship
with each other can only be had if first in fellowship with God:
that's 1John's theme. Matched to his
meter, and echoing the other NT authors, his text here searingly affirms when to run from the niko-laus apostate:
for of course they will argue they are the true 'fellowship'. So again, 21: 150 ad in Roman auc = Christ age 153 – 132. Poignant shorthand for Church's rejection,
wrong growth germinating; yet also, the few grow
just as Paul had forecast. That's
how bad we are at 33+57+57+3. Want
evidence? Read Hegesippus! Spawned by
Clement, Heggy furthered the anti-Biblical claim of apostolic succession.
I had to make
videos on this guy's clear insanity sorry. Yet he's praised, even by Schaff?! Flipside, we have Mr. See-Me-Twist-Scripture,
Irenaeus; he's the spawn of the graceless Polycarp. So by the Lord's age 150, we were
already wacko, so early in the game! In that 147th year, Jews were 7-years' banished
from Jerusalem, newly renamed Aelia Capitolina. Banishment blessing: wheat and chaff,
separate. Paul thus ended his meter at
147 for the 'first quarter of Church'.
John tags it.) |

was banished, Callistus was killed, Origen had left

All that occurred locally in Rome; but also synods (see link in

re-baptise a heretic (veto made famous by Ireneaus). The Decian persecution, ends 21 years
later. Paul benchmarked this 21, in Eph 1:10; John here marks its start. The persecutions are a stronger feature of
this period, as Christians became far more political; so Roman emperors began
to punish them (i.e., Decius, Valerian) or court them (i.e., Gallienus).) |

variant enclitic te is in mss. from
Textus Receptus, also rejected. Not proper, between hosa

rejected, Rev 1:3 variant in Sinaiticus a), Tishendorf has ton logon vs. tous logous. Neuter ta makes tous logous more likely.
Also rejected, Rev 1:4 variants theou and estin; theou is
stylistically incorrect; estin is
grammatically incorrect. Rev 1:5ff variants
are listed below, struck out if rejected; else, they are
alternative, not altering total syllable count, or counted. These variants are in the Byzantine mss
and/or Sinaiticus. Other variants don't
seem to impact meter, so are unlisted.
However, v.8 should say 'A', not 'Alpha', since none of the variants use
'omega'. Scrivener –related mss just use
'A'.

1John
Revelation
Meter's Import
Much
scholarly and other attention has centered on when Revelation was written. The debaters focus on textual clues and the
so-called 'church fathers', who claimed Domitian persecuted Christians (abusing Rev2:10's, 'ten days').
There's little evidence he did.
Passing comments by Dio, Suetonius or Tacitus only show a general hostility toward Jews; and toward Christians, long
deemed an offshoot sect. John doesn't
say Domitian exiled him; it makes no sense, to claim Domitian was personally
involved. Yet we can say that during these
years, expectations ran high for the King
Of The Jews To Return, just as Bible long prophesied. So it's likely John was accused as a Messiah
predictor, admitted it, so was banished. Since he was still allowed
to send out what he wrote (Rev 1:11), he mustn't have been deemed much of a
threat. Such leniency is much
like Paul's imprisonment.
From
88-90 ad, and even earlier, Domitian accused many and punished some
with exile; his motive (per
Dio, in that link)
appears to have been jealousy. So
perhaps local rulers received authority to
banish anyone deemed a threat for the same reasons. Hence John's dateline here, December ad 88, makes sense. The date is earlier than some Christian
scholars would claim. Yet given John's
habit of dating his letters as metric tags on his past writings, I don't know
how anyone could dispute Revelation's date, here. For I too want a later year for the book, but
cannot justify it. Obviously the claim
may be vetted, in what follows.
