Excel Notes are buggy. If a note looks weird, try Excel's Window, Unfreeze Panes. Or, right-click and select "Show Comment". Or, select Excel's "View", then "Custom Views". There, I made a popup menu of various worksheet sections you can quickly access: pick an "Adam" option that lets you freeze or unfreeze the panes, as desired.

IMPORT: God Decrees that Time only exist on a contingent basis, subject to humans WANTING Him. Wanting God is essentially a 'vote' to know God and be with Him. So He orchestrates Time based on that criterion: for if you don't want God, you don't want His Blessing, either. Time is a blessing. Thus His Accounting System for Time, is based on Justice Principles of Blessing. As was true even in the Garden, God decrees Time continue ONLY on a contingent basis, so it can end any day. Hence God grants the world up to 1050 years more to live, solely as an award to a BELIEVER in it.   The award must begin during his lifetime or when he dies; it then runs until 490 and/or 1000 years afterwards. The grantee must be supermatured (=knowledge of God + believing in Him, BOTH). It's an internal soul development criterion, not works. If multiple believers during the same historical period have such awards, the QUALITY of that time improves much. The converse is also true: the fewer awarded, the worse off the world (i.e., wars, economic disaster, etc). Flood, Temple Destruction, thus the Rapture, each illustrate this converse.

By Divine Decree, it's about VOTING, from Garden to end of time. So all time hinges on VOTES. You can vet this doctrine in Bible. For example, every verse with a date, is first designed to show how it FITS within God's Doctrine of Allocating Time. 1Kings 6:1 thus shows Temple got started 3 yrs late (should have begun when David died), but it still finished BEFORE the 490 yrs granted Moses, ended. Matt16:2-3 is a command to KNOW this doctrine; Moses asked the Lord, "teach us to number our days", Ps90:12. So there are thousands of verses on this doctrine. But it's easier to see, in some passages: God uses His accounting system in Dan9. God subdivides the 490 based on when 1st Temple was dedicated (950BC, 1Ki8:1) & razed (586BC, Jer52:12-14).   Dan9:2's a voting period, mirrored back twice before the new 490 even begins. Next, Dan 9:24-27 is a sum: repayment of 364 yrs 1st Temple operated (950-586BC), + 126 yrs' lost time when Temple razed (950-490=460, 126 yrs later). Hence 7 & 62 weeks (490-364 1st Temple longevity=126 remainder, -70 in Dan9:2 again, justifiable if the new 364 completes, - 49 =7 reserved for Trib). So the new 490 is contingent on Israel voting to rebuild Temple & then Jerusalem; thus Dan9's span to Crucifixion is not 490 yrs, but 623: 586BC -70-70-490+7=37AD. It gets cut to 30AD, when Israel rejects Christ: so the leftover '7' plays from 64-70AD. Israel's time ran out. Per Book of Hebrews, Church has its own covenant so is not Israel; but Church's "time" is used to BRIDGE & RESCUE Israel's yet-unplayed, promised Trib & Mill. Column G's year "4136" rows show why.

Bible thus shows from Genesis 5 onward how God blesses the world by association with strong-in-faith believers. Bible tracks these people via date schemae based on this 490/1000 accounting system -- thus you can learn the doctrine, and grow up enough to get such an award, yourself. So this spreadsheet follows the Bible's tracking. (Post-96AD you can discern by interplay of the Post-Cross schema and Bible's Lev26, Dan9:26, and Rev 6-19 historical trends, what awards have been granted: but you can't identify who got them. At the Bema, these individuals will be disclosed.)

Three important rules govern these grants:
        1. The time awarded each such believer has its own beginning and end, starting usually during his lifetime, but always ends 490 and/or 1000 years after it started.
        2. A believer can get multiple time awards and starting dates based on multiple events in his life (shown here via Noah, Abram, Moses, David and Christ). As you'll see here, it was ONLY because there were MULTIPLE grants to DAVID, that the world got to live until Christ came. Very important to study that fact.
        3. Like a relay race, a believer's award must be 'passed' like a baton to a new grantee, before his own time grant ends. Else, the world's time ends. (When multiple believers all have 490s during the same historical time, it's the LAST of these which governs.) Shown here via Noah to Abram to Joseph to Moses to Israel to David to Temple to Christ. (Note continues in A4.)

[3]

(Continued from cell A2's note.)
Brick-red background cells alert you to convergence: time awarded in the very year it would otherwise run out. So from Adam through Christ, the world almost ended at least SEVEN times.

So here's the race (Heb12:1-2), the prize, the catch: the world runs on its own 'clock' which dates from Adam's fall (G column). Hence God's goal is to award someone a PERSONAL time grant before each historical world deadline, occurs. Consequently, somebody's award must be continuously running 'beneath' the world deadlines, for the world to continue living. In this spreadsheet, the world's own historical time deadlines are thus displayed as 'stripes' of solid gold (490 or 560 years) or hatched green (1000 or 1050 years). Thus you can track the lighter individual 'stripes' versus the world's, every 490, 560, 1000, and 1050 years. The individuals themselves, are highlighted with light-blue backgrounds.

Given #3 baton-passing rule above, and like a lunar year which is not intercalated, the 490 and 1000 world deadlines run contiguous upon each other, as 'qualifying periods' -- deadlines by which an award MUST be given, or else time runs out. So for a QUALIFYING 490 or 1000, the next 490 or 1000 must piggyback (start in the same yr the other one ends, analogous to a Jewish day beginning the prior night) -- and someone NEW must be awarded that next 490 yrs BEFORE the qualifying period ends -- or the world's time ends.

So to track, find the world historical deadline, and then compare it to what underlying qualifying periods or personal grants, are also running. IF that #3 contiguity qualification is met, an added MASS VOTING time grant is given the world, and real world historical time is 'intercalated'. The grant is 70 yrs for mass BELIEVER votes, Jer25, Dan9:2; it is appended to the first 490 beginning within a '1050' unit of world time (Dan9 was an exception, because time should have ended). The second voting unit is 50 years for UNBELIEVERS, appended to the end of a '1000' unit of historical time. These 'intercalated' voting periods are appended due to the Angelic Trial: if mass votes are too negative, time ends for those who negatively voted, akin to the Flood (Gen 6), and Israel in the wilderness (e.g., Num 14:12-29). Satan's goal is to get EVERYONE to negatively vote, so that God must cancel Time per His Own Rules. (Hence the Rapture is undateable for the same reason, theme of Hebrews 3.) Thus you have 490+70+490 'housed' inside a 1000+50 unit, making for the 1050 years granted the world. Each of these units and their functions are discussed further in notes to cells C6, F6, and H6. There are other subunits of import: Mirroring.htm covers them.

Time ends with the grants; hence Christ had to come "in the fulness [END] of time", as Paul puts it (i.e., Gal4:4). Greek word "pleroma" really means PREGNANT, ready to birth (Rom8:11ff explains). So Christ came when the LAST 490 allowed (given David's death and 2nd Temple), ran out. He died at its VERY END; both HISTORICAL and PERSONAL 1000's and 490's, ALL CONVERGE on His Date of Death, as you'll see in this worksheet. PassPlot.htm's "Modest Proposal" sublink has more on how His Birth and Death Dates fit God's Calendar of History (Jewish calendar=calendar of all history).

[4]

Amazingly, Satan makes derisive burlesque of God's 490-year accounting system, and he uses Islam to make his burlesques. Like clockwork, within 120 years before a 490 ends, Satan does something with Islam to mock the significance of the time. Building the Dome of the Rock on a reversal date of the initial destruction of 1st Temple (inter alia) is but one of many gambits he uses. It's really petty and sad, and really trackable.
For example, one of his demons wrote the Koran. In it, there's this claim that Ishmael, not Isaac, was sacrificed on that Temple Mount. That's why Islam took the Mount in what's a reversal of 586 (BC) in 685 AD. 685 AD is also 586+99, and Abraham was 99 when he circumcised himself.. They got the Arabs to even spend the same seven years time building the Abominating Dome of the Rock (<-- reminding you of WHAT it is), as was spent on the 1st Temple. Yet the Arabs didn't catch on to how they were burlesqued. Petty, huh. If you want the cites in the Koran, upload the Word.doc on it, http://www.geocities.com/brainout1/IshmaelnotIsaac.doc.

[5]

Satan tracks to the 70 AD 2nd Temple destruction and to the 490's and 1000's, always trying to get focus on the Temple and Jerusalem to create world war. He doesn't know when the Rapture will happen, either. If he can stop time before one of the deadlines, he wins and there'd be no Rapture.

[6]

Seven post-Cross trends PEAK when a 490's ending; they begin four generations (120 years) prior, like Gen6:
1) Back-to-the-Bible movement with Bible being 'found', cell G8 format;
2) revolt contra Religion in favor of Bible teaching;
3) mass evangelism;
4) Religion counterattacks 1)-3), cells A6-A8, B6 & B8 formats;
5) mass inter- or intra-continental migration, cell J8 format;
6) new client nation born on ashes of one dying, cell F7 format;
7) geographic 'spread' of these trends far exceeds prior 490's geography.
Biblically-significant history magnetizes around each 120-year span.

[7]

Between every 490-year pair, there is a 70-year voting window. Between every 1000-year pair, there is a 50-year voting window. The last 120 years of a 490 are a time of voting to learn Word. During these windows, history is most critical, just as during voting period before the Gen 6 Flood. For if not enough unbelievers want to know God; if not enough believers want to spiritually mature in God's Word, then the continuation of time cannot be justified. It's a MASS thing. So the history of these periods is characterised by mass movements: politics, migrations, wars, attempts to sway the masses. Over long eons of time, the scope of these mass-actions vastly increases. Idea is, everyone should have enough chance to vote. We're in a four-generation window (ending 2130) now, so you can test the Cell C6 trends with your nightly news.

[8]

Two types of 1000's; one is historical, the other is personal. Even the historical time grant is given a believer, but it protects the entire world (a secular Justice question). During the 1000-1050 period, mankind votes to know God or not. If the votes are too negative, time ends but the believers are delivered (or die). Extra 1000's, if granted, improve time quality, not length (i.e., more prosperity). Underlying these are 490s (see the note to cell C6). Note how the green and gold 'personal' stripes often extend just barely beyond the historical ones, so you know who got the grant. All grants converge in 30AD, when He dies. Thus time resets to HIS Dates. Thus all green (1000 & 1050) and gold (490 & 560) grants, date from Him.

[9]

Trend #4 in MirrorNOW.htm, Religious counterattack, is primarily Rev17, properly speaking; but it always plays in a context of Rev11-17 trends. This interwoven pattern is particularly bald in history, within the last 120 years of the end of a 490, post-Cross (the gold background entries).

[10]

Time would end, absent someone so positive to God, God can justify time continuing. Usually many people die -- a form of housecleaning so the disease of disbelief can be contained.

[11]

This is Trend #6 in MirrorNOW.htm. As part of preserving history, God sets up a 'client' nation so that Bible teaching can continue and people have a place to vote with their feet, to get it. Israel was begun for that purpose, and post-Israel here in the Church Age, the 'clients' are among the Gentile nations. So one of the signs of the ending of a 490, is the (usual) ending of some nation which HAD been a 'client', but now is too apostate. So a successor nation arises, usually on the heels of the dying one beginning 120 years or so before a 490 ends. Example of SPQR dying, and the Holy Roman Empire replacing her.

[12]

Time grant runs out the SAME year!

[13]

When Satan&Co. can't reign in those wanting Bible, they sponsor pogroms. They also do this to the Jews to maximally encourage them to herd. Easier to kill your enemy if you can get him to herd in a city or other enclave. See, if Satan can kill enough Jews then he can claim God can't keep His Promise (i.e., to preserve them, to carry out the promise to Abraham, etc). Variation of that applies in our very different Church covenant, too. Part IV of Thinking series is on that topic.

[14]

Satan wants to keep our attention focused on the site of the 2nd Temple (same as the 1st Temple) in order to make us herd together and 'defend' the site, thus motivating genocide. It's a trend explained most succinctly in Rev11-17. Rev11 is a FAKE temple, fulfilling Dan9:27. So since Satan doesn't know when the Rapture will occur, he's got to keep on trying to get a FAKE Temple built. LvS4a.htm's "Two Stone Witnesses" link explains the gambit, and here you see the actual ATTEMPTS at herding through post-Cross history.

[15]

This ties to #1-3 Trends of "Scripture rollout", "Back to Bible Movements", "mass evangelism", in MirrorNOW.htm. Historically, you see these peak within 120 years of the ending of a 490 (four generations before it ends, actually). Historically you'll find a big conflict between the 'establishment' and these grass-roots Bible movements (Trend #4, in MirrorNOW.htm). In the Middle Ages, Trends #1-3 displayed as a proliferation of monasteries, for example -- that was the only way you could even READ a Bible, generally.

[16]

Trend #5, in MirrorNOW.htm. Within 120 years of the end of a 490, mass migrations across continents peak. Thus those migrating, are exposed to Gospel and Bible teaching. You can set your watch. I'll gradually post the migration entries as I edit this sheet.

[17]

God justifies TIME via grant to a BELIEVER who grew enough, spiritually. It's a relay race: a new grantee must be developed by the end of the prior grant. Bible tells you who these people are, thru Cross (light blue). Historical 490-yr grants are solid gold; overlapping personal 490's are cross-hatched, lighter gold. Linking them are 70-yr BELIEVER voting periods: if too many vote 'no', God 'cleans house' w/disaster, but preserves the world. Hence the Flood: Noah gets a 490, but only Noah and family voted yes; everyone else drowned. 490+70 yrs+490=1000+50 yr UNBELIEVER voting period (overlaps last 50 yrs of 2nd 490)=1050.

Must be at least one person by each historical, contiguous, 490-year deadline: else time ends. If multiple persons granted a 490, time's quality improves, but the new deadline is the latest of such grants.

Next, seven post-Cross trends PEAK when a 490's ending; they begin four generations (120 yrs) prior, like Gen6: 1) Back-to-the-Bible (interest in Bible) with Bible being 'found'; 2) revolt contra Religion in favor of Bible teaching; 3) mass evangelism; 4) Religion counterattacks 1)-3); 5) mass inter- or intra-continental migration; 6) new client nation born on ashes of one dying; 7) geographic 'spread' of these trends far exceeds prior 490. Biblically-significant history magnetizes around each period.

[18]

This is the historical deadline, an absolute year measured from first or Last Adam. The qualifying 490 must be met by this gold deadline, or time ends.

[19]

Remember that this is a hall-of-fame roster, not a complete listing of all the kids sired. The ones not mentioned come under the usual rubric of 'had other sons and daughters'.

[20]

Bible dates "in the year x" of/after a thing/event, Post-Fall (Adam, Temple), post-birth. So man's days are numbered, Gen 2:17, Gen3:17, Exo23:26, Job14:5, Ps90:12, Eze4:5, Ecc3.

[21]

Bible 'scholarship' seems to forget that until you can DIE, your days aren't NUMBERED. So any timeline begins with Adam's FALL, never before. No wonder the Bible's dates seem to be 'wrong' -- WE READ THEM WRONG! For centuries…

'God doesn't say when He initially created the universe, nor when He later created Adam. Neither Gen1:1 (initial creation) nor the later hiatus period of "tohu wa bohu" in Gen1:2, are dated. Gen1:2ff is about the RESTORATION of the earth, NOT its initial creation. "Genesis" is a Greek word, and means the origin of MAN, not the universe. (Why don't people do their homework?) Hence Gen1:2's text on why the earth is there but trashed up, BECAUSE the lights are out: HS turned them back on again, Gen1:3, etc. It's some interglacial period being depicted, but SUPERNATURAL restoration is what occurred, as the text makes clear. Further, Adam is depicted as a scientist in Gen 2, not a hunter-gatherer; they were not meat-eaters prior to the Flood; Cain goes out and builds a city. Why don't those in the inane science debates pro- or con- Bible, notice what BIBLE says here?

[22]

"Appointed to take the place of" is the real meaning. Substitutionary, replacing a lost person. I'm not sure if Seth is THE 490 person, but his name certainly implies that he was. Then again, maybe Adam was, since the birth of Seth acts like a birthday present to Adam.

[23]

Names from here on are guessed based on roots; hard to get a lexicon to parse the name.

[24]

'Voting Window" means mankind's positive volition to God is being tested. If V+ is too small, the next 490 will not begin. Principle is in Dan 9:2, and Daniel is invoking it, 'voting' (i.e., as prayer). Here, this voting period is for believers. Notice how God mirrors back the 70 years, IF the Temple is rebuilt. Mirroring.htm shows how that occurred, just after its "To Be or Not To Be" subtable (which explains God's accounting in Dan 9:24-27).

[25]

'Could be that Jared is a 490 person also. Definitely Enoch was. Looks like Enoch is a birthday present to the dad.

[26]

Lamech had to know about the Flood to name his kid Noah. Enoch had to know about the Flood to name his kid, Lamech's dad, "MethuSaleh" -- since that means the Flood occurs when he dies. So the WORLD was given long advance notice since yow 687 or prior -- a good 1000 years -- that this would happen.

[27]

If "mag" is "magi" root, it doesn't mean he was a sorcerer, but that he'd be regarded as spiritually powerful. But Lamech's compound roots could be something else.

[28]

There are three types of voting periods God grants: the 70-year period for believers to vote, in the middle of a 1050 (linking the two 490s), Daniel 9:2; 50-year voting period for unbelievers at the end of a historical 1000, evidenced by Bible dates (as you'll progressively see in this spreadsheet); and here, a four generation period for all the human race, specifically designed so people can vote with their feet to get Bible. The terms are here stated in Gen 6. Here, God is announcing the OUTCOME of the vote at the END of the generational voting period: and it is bad. So He announces He's gonna clean house. That's the principle which applies to EVERY 490's closing; here, we're seeing the end verdict. But look: He goes for a recount, 2Pet3:9, not willing any should perish, to grant ANOTHER four generations (120-160 years, time enough to bear great-grandkids).

You'll see the same terms play within the last 120-160 years of every historical 490. The seven trends in the 490/560 note to cell C6 peak during that time. Like clockwork. Today people can vote for Bible by searching the internet, so it's easier.

[29]

A sure sign of a 490 and 1000 person is that God makes a personal covenant. Time would be part of it (gotta have time to enjoy the material promise of the covenant, hence the need for eternal life to get heavenly rewards, Romans 9). The Ultimate Covenanted Person is Christ, Isa53:10-12. So He owns all time, too: Hebrews 1:2-4, 10:1-17 (whole book is on that topic).

There are other ways to identify a 490 or 1000 person: God giving you kids as birthday presents which are 'spaced' about 490 years from the last hero who got a 490 (Enoch and Seth, Shem and Isaac are 'spaced' sons of winner fathers); God renaming you, and getting huge chunks of Scripture to write.

Post-Cross, very very high Bible understanding is what qualifies one for such an award. But a charwoman might have it, as well as a pastor. Let's hope it's mostly the pastors, tho, since they could then teach us! Pray for pastors!

[30]

Here it's important to remember beginnings and endings of years make for subtractions or additions of 1 or even 2. Here, Shem TURNS 100 while he is on the Ark. Arpachshad was born just after the flood ended (works out to two years since it began); God seems to have timed the births as birthday presents to Shem. Just as, he did Shem's dad Noah: 490 years later, Isaac is born; so Noah's PERSONAL 490 begins @Shem's birth. See Gen5:32 w/11:10, then Gen7:11, and 8:13-14 (Flood fully receded by Noah's 601st birthday). So Gen 11:10's "2 years after the Inundation" (began) = birth LATE in Shem's 100th year. So Shem was born LATE Noah's 500th year, maybe of triplets; and Arpachshad was maybe of triplets, too. 'Check BHS and LXX in 5:32, 10:22, 11:10, 7:11, 8:13-14. Last two passages mean 'Shem's wife birthed all three within the year AFTER they left Ark (i.e., Gen8:18ff w/1Pet3:20).

[31]

Would you make a covenant with a God you couldn't see, that yeah, the kids you aren't seeing either, WILL BE ENSLAVED FOR 400 YEARS and then a Savior you don't see either, will deliver them and eventually -- long after YOU died -- will save the human race. Sound like a good offer to you? HOW MUCH FAITH must you have, to say "yes" to that offer? But Abraham did. So would Isaac, Jacob, and Joseph. Yeah, and had they not done so, the whole human race would have perished.

[32]

^Dates and identities for Pharonic rule come from my 1985 set of Encyclopedia Britannica (called "EB" for short in this worksheet): Macropedia entries per Pharaoh, and the "Egypt, History of" article in the regular Encyclopedia. I find this set's dates MUCH more provable and reliable than other 'scholarship' out there. Egyptian dating is fraught with controversy, since 1985.

[33]

^Amenemhet dies the same way as he came to power -- by palace conspiratorial assasination, in 1962BC. Sesostris will devote his life to finding the murderers, as chronicled in the Egyptian books Instructions of Amenemhet and the Story of Sinuhe. Now you know why the grandson, Amenemhet II, put his G-2 ("cupbearer") and royal food ("chief baker") officials in jail for conspiracy.

[34]

This date is the precedence for Passover, as God explains in Exodus 12. Night-first accounting nests the new day in the evening of the prior day. So the Lamb must be slain before sundown on 14 Nisan, and Unleavened Bread begins on the same day as the actual Exodus, THAT night, the Passover. So to our modern eyes it seems like two days, but it's the SAME day in Hebrew accounting. Because we don't understand God's laws on the Passover in the OT, we mess up the Chronology of both the Exodus, and Passion Week.. for centuries. And blame BIBLE, rather than our bad scholarship. Oh well. PassPlot.htm demonstrates the correct chronology, and you can test it.

[35]

He's the Pharaoh of Exo 1:19-22. But a vizier, not Pharaoh, is the plotting "king" in Exo1:15ff. You can understand how he'd be dependent on the vizier (there were two at this point) for his power. Exo 1:15 makes it clear the vizier was behind the edict to kill Hebrew boys, using Pharaoh as a rubber stamp. He's only been in power five years, when Moses is born.

[36]

But Thutmose II and Hatshepsut have no male kids together. This is a royal problem.

[37]

Hatshepsut's political position is precarious; her solution to stay a widow, claiming her real dad is the god Ahmose, is sheer genius: thus she saved Egypt from foreigners. Look: should she marry, she can only marry outside Egypt, in which case foreign domination resumes. Her life is pretty much forfeit. Fortunately she herself bore a God's Wife via Thutmose II, so whoever marries Hat's daughter, gains legitimacy. She'll use these facts to justify holding onto power, herself. Her chief rival is Thutmose's son by a concubine. Moses, of course, she adopted. Now you know why. Hatshepsut is the first of the strong female rulers. She sets precedence, and she does it by appeal to special favor from the gods; "Moses" means he's a gift from Isis -- clearly, Isis is invoked to stop the killing of Hebrew boys, which ceases as a result of her finding him. Every ruler after her will invoke special divine favor for politically-touchy policies. Notice how astute she is. Moses is 16 at this point, and Thutmose II's son by the concubine, is 10 years old. Proverbial heir and spare -- and unmarried, both. So her daughter (a coveted "God's Wife") is a carrot for both factions: those supporting Moses, and those supporting the 'native' son, tho by concubine. Exodate.htm has more details.

[38]

Egyptologists and historians are always puzzled by the bi-polar nature of the historical records left behind. On the one hand, the record seems to show great amity between Hatshepsut and Thutmose III. On the other, there's all this defacing of Hatshepsut. EB concludes that the relationship was good until shortly before or after, her death. They don't recognize that the ruling period is too long for just one person. So TWO people, and the first one is Moses. See Exodate.htm's chronology for details you can test.

[39]

'You can only find 9 years of annual campaigns on this guy. So he did NOT rule for 25 years! Thutmose IV, who comes next, must have been ruling in his dad's name. Thutmose IV was promised in a dream by the Sphinx that if he honored the Sphinx, he'd become Pharaoh, says EB. So this Thutmose IV would not have been the first-born son, huh...

[40]

^Notice the reversal of the years' rule. Bet Amenhotep II ruled only 9-10 years, but Thutmose IV for 25 years. Very interesting, his diplomacy. Egyptians vigorously whitewashed their history, especially the Ramses. You'll hear much about that even in your average cable documentary (i.e., on the History Channel).

[41]

1 Kings 6:1 dates Solomon's reign from David's year of death. David retired from Kingship before he died (see how 2Chron begins). So God limits time in Dan 9:24-27 to the 1000th anniversary of David's death..

[42]

Notice how his Kingship is consolidated during a 1050 voting period (between 3100-3150). I don't know if 25 Chislev is valid. The date DOES tie to something in David's life, but I'm not sure what. It's important to find out.
God never pulls His prophecy events or even the numbers out of a hat, some mere prediction, please-drool-here: rather, prophecy always plays in a MIRRORING RESTITUTION due to some PAST event. See, that's how you know it's really GOD talking. Only God can make time itself a JUSTICE issue.. and, He does. So when God says 1335 days in Daniel 12:12, yes it's a literal period for Trib believers to count then, but it's BASED on something in the PAST. So for us now, the job is to find out the BASIS. That basis must be related to David, somewhere. It's most likely that since the Lord's Birthdate is 25 Chislev, that the Dan 12:12 is based on an accounting from Him -- but then why was 25 Chislev chosen for the Lord's Birthdate, long before Chanukah, see Haggai 2? That's what needs to be solved. A birthdate's 'doctrine' must relate to a PRIOR birthdate of some kind. That's how God does his matching, and as we've seen, He's pretty big on making TIME into a birthday present. TIME, and SONS. Well, Here is THE SON OF TIME!
So here's an interesting thing, maybe goofball, maybe doctrine, let's see: Daniel 12:12 gives the last hiatus in days; people in Trib need that for safety. Obverse is 7 years' - 1335. David is promised the Temple and Messiah, 2Sam7; so Temple's PROMISE begins on David's death. That's a type of birth. So Temple's dedication is based on David, not on Israel, 950BC. That would be n+1 year for intercalation purposes, the 490th anniv of Exodus (1440BC-490); Exo+1 (1439BC) begins intercalation; so its anniversaries run 1 yr BEHIND in intercalation. Exo yr=n, but by its ending, you intercalate 5.25 days. They didn't do that every yr. So: 951, n; 952, n+6; 953, n+5; 954, n+4; 955, n+3; 956, n+2; 957, n+1; 958, n; 959, n+6; 960, n+5; 961, n+4; 962, n+3; 963, n+2.
So IF no intercalation in 960 prior to 2 Ziv when construction began, calendar ran 27 days fast relative to "n"; but in any event is only 16 days fast compared to 963 (n+2). 2556.75 days=seven 365.25-day yrs. 1335 days is in Dan 12:12. That leaves 1221.75 days. So if David died 1221.75 days before Temple construction began, he died on the evening of 25 Chislev. 1221.75-1095.75 (three intercalated years) = 126. 126-31 (1 Ziv + all Nisan) -30 (all Adar, non-intercalated) -60 (all Shebat+Tebeth) = 5, so 25 Chislev. In 963BC, 25 Chislev ran 14 days fast, so =11 Chislev (9/12*5.25+11 days fast at beginning of 963). 11 Chislev is the EXACT OPPOSITE of Pentecost. Alternatively, maybe 25 Chislev was his crowing date? The math would be the same, a 'birthing' still metaphorically depicted. Depends on WHAT 25 Chislev represents. See, for folks in the Trib, memorability matters. So this countdown in Dan12:12 must be based on a benchmark date of doctrinal significance, which THEN happens BECAUSE of that significance. It's not just happenstance.
In accounting, you have to match the character of two like amounts, before you can say you have a balance. How do we know that Antiochus didn't PICK 25 Chislev to defile the temple with a pig, BECAUSE it was an anniversary of the foundation stone's being laid (see Haggai 2:10, 15, 18, 23)? And how do we know that they didn't pick that day to lay the stone, because it was the anniversary of David's crowning (or retirement, death)? Woulda been the thing to do, given the TESTAMENTARY promise of Temple in 2Sam7.
In sum, Scripture isn't silent, we just don't know how to read it. 1Kings 6:1 tells you the year David died, and Haggai 2, the month and day the Lord would be born. Daniel 7:25 and 8:14 show the parallel to the future Chanukah and Trib; the math confirms these ideas. But of course, I need more verses in Bible to confirm or refute this.

[43]

This is downright scary. MOSES got the grant of time, and he refused God's offer to wipe out Israel, so f/b/o MOSES, Israel was given a corporate time grant. That's scary, because then ISRAEL CAN LOSE it. Which, she did, in 1050BC. But again due to MOSES, time could go on, pending some other KING God could develop within the 40-year phase-out period (Acts 13:19ff) -- or time ends, baby. That person was David, to whom the TEMPLE was promised -- so the TEMPLE, not Israel, gets the 490. Now you know why Daniel 9 reads as it does, mirroring on the PREVIOUS 490 for the TEMPLE. Which previous 490 could NOT have even begun, had not the TEMPLE been dedicated before MOSES' 490, ran out!

[44]

Since GOD is doing the decreeing, the time of the decree dates from when GOD made it, 586BC (Jer25). This way you ALSO get absolute verification that the human-king decrees (Cyrus, Artaxerxes, Darius) are 'on time'.

[45]

Classic example of the importance of a 490. The 490 shifted to the Temple, in 950BC, as the Daniel 9 accounting shows; so no longer would an individual be granted 490's or 1000's, until Messiah Himself; so instead the Temple's STANDING warranted the continuation of time, since the Temple represented His Coming. Because there was a TEMPLE, there could be a nation Israel, see 1Kings 9. Cannot divorce the Temple and the nation: no Temple, then no nation, as happened in 586BC. So it was a matter of VOTING for the Temple to be rebuilt, which Daniel is doing here. Surely he had prayed before. But the 40-year punishment period is up (586-546).

[46]

Greeks defeated this Xerxes at sea in 480; so Xerxes was in political trouble. No telling what might have been the fate of the Jews had God not 'installed' Mordecai/Esther. The later Persian Kings employed Jewish counselors as a consequence (see Ezra and Nehemiah), despite political upheavals.

[47]

This was a major setback for Satan. As you'll see post-Cross, he's positively obsessed with playing time games on dates related to both the First (and especially the 2nd) Temples. How sad.

[48]

Because God commissioned Moses to lead the people; because He offered to wipe out the people twice and begin again with Moses; because He commissioned Moses to write foundational Canon, you know Moses is the 1000 person. And when Moses LED the people out of Egypt, that's when his Personal 1000 and 490 began (because they voted for God, and obviously so had he). The Exodus came from Joseph's 490, and ported to Moses. Always, a personal 490 must underly a historical 490; a personal 1000 must underlie a historical 1000; and these 490's and 1000's must AT LEAST be contiguous, if not overlapping; so they string together like baton-passing in a relay race. Else, time ends. God can make anyone get the grant. Even, you or me.

[49]

'Herod becomes king of Judea in 37BC. That protects the Temple. It's probably because Herod is dying from various internal diseases that the census had to be instituted in Judaea, since it got started long prior, but Herod handled all tax collections and remitted them to Rome. So the first ROMAN census would be occurring because Herod wasn't expected to live.

[50]

'Just as when the 1st Temple ended early, so God did the time-accounting adjustments He showed Daniel in Daniel 9:2, 24-27, so also EARLY success resets the clock. But the old clock keeps on being compared. As noted above, the historical 490 couldn't complete (in yow 4150 and 4200) because the outer limit of granted time for the Temple was 30AD (yow 4136). So this is God's BC/AD measuring. Time resets to 0 for the Last Adam's Success, even as time began due to the first Adam's Fall.

[51]

Church has to begin to justify continuing time. Hence the Lord's statement in Matt16:18 that He would build the Church on HIMSELF (Petra is a famous moniker for Christ in the OT, referring to the Holy of Holies -- never Peter, lol). Israel had run out of time. Israel's alloted time would end 4136 at the very outside. It got 40 years as follows: 33 years mirror-back of Messiah's years because Savior years are always mirrored back; plus, the 7 He lost by dying earlier due to Israel's rejection (again, because He did it successfully). That left the 7 Trib years reserved for Israel. So the difference between 4200 -7 (4193) and 4136+40 (4176) was allotted for Church, the idea being there COULD have been enough spiritual growth to finish the Royal Family of God. Technically the whole SCHEDULED period from 4136-4193 belonged to Church, but God is paying back Israel time Messiah 'used', which had been in the Daniel 9 promise. As to Church being completed in so short a time, 1Jn3 and Phili 3:10-12 show it was possible, and Book of Hebrews is dedicated to the proposition of it being expected by the time the Temple was to be destroyed, since that was in the Daniel Timeline. Again, those two tables in Mirroring and PassPlot show the full accounting.

[52]

'The 12 were apostles to the JEWS, not to Gentiles. Everyone seems to forget this, but Acts is really plain about it, beginning in Acts 15. So there is no such thing as a pope, and certainly none of the 12 could be one, since PAUL's territory was to.. the Gentiles. Thus we see the seeds of the Rev 17 lie sown.. lasting until today. And those involved in popism of course don't even know they are being used as pawns. ALL believers of any denomination are used as pawns whenever possible; look how Satan used Paul's screwup in 58AD to get him jailed; but it's easier to track Catholicism in history as an example.

[53]

'Notice how Paul begins his ministry during what would have been the UNSHORTENED Voting Window. Paul dies victorious within that Window, thus justifying the next 1000, and continuation of Church. God gave Paul to write most of the NT Canon. That's how we know Paul is the 1000 person and the 490 person.

[54]

'This is a turning point in history. The praetorians come to power as caesar-makers, Rome suffers the Year of the Four Emperors, and persecution of Christians/Jews begins big-time. As a result, CONVERSIONS to Christianity increase. There'd have been no Constantine absent the persecutions of Nero through Diocletian.

[55]

The 7-year period in Dan9:27, gets 'exchanged' for an undated 7-year period cut out of Christ's alloted 40 years. So the Daniel 9:26-27 ambiguity is deliberate, for two possible outcomes: one 'seven', if Israel accepts Him; but two 'sevens', if Israel rejects Him. The second seven is cut from His Life and grafted in. So the first seven is simultaneously paid at the time owed, via 'exchange': the second one, which had been the first, is now undated, technically. It amounts to TWO 'tribulations', one playing Daniel 9:26, from 64-70 AD, paradigmal, just as the Lord explained in Matt24; and the other yet-future UNDATED one, playing Daniel 9:27, the "official" Tribulation which ends time as we know it, ushering in the 2nd Advent and the Mill.

This accounting is key to proving the Rapture valid. The Bible numbers in Daniel 9 can only balance that way. In accounting you must go BACK TO SOURCE and track all changes. So one must first reconstruct what WAS SUPPOSED to happen, the ORIGINAL scheduled 2nd Advent. Then you can be sure of proper 'balance', when revising. God always BALANCES His numbers, so we should, too.

[56]

The pure preterist will tell you there's no Rapture, for Revelation depicts future history as trends: that the only prophecy remaining to be fulfilled, is the 2nd Advent. Some preterists say the Millennium is a yet-future real period, too.
It is true that Revelation depicts history as trends, and the Millennium is real enough. He gets those parts, right.
The preterist further argues that since Temple was razed 70AD, John wrote in or just before 70AD. He gets that part, quite wrong; John's letters show the Temple is already long gone; his Rev tableaus tweak popular mimes mocking Christians during Domitian's rule; Rev 4 plays on upcoming imperial policy changes for the Equites (of 98AD or so).
Most of all, the preterist gets wrong Daniel 9:24-27's math, so can't see there's yet another hanging 'seven' cut out from Christ's Own Life.

[57]

Due to Messiah's Success, a 40-year period following His Death has to be inserted, to 'mirror' (pay back) the time successfully completed; the 40 years ALLOTED to Him, originally (same as David's period of rule). Two types of 40's here: a KINGSHIP 40 (a reward) and a wilderness 40 (punishment). One is a mirror-back restitution; the other, is a loss. Note how combining both nets out and balances the time. A 7 ONLY plays within a 40, just as it did for the Pharaoh of the Dream.

So it was always understood that there would be AT LEAST a 40-year hiatus between Daniel 9:26 and Daniel 9:27. Daniel himself understood it, praying at the end of the 40 years, in 537BC.

Question was, when would that 40 future years post-2nd Temple, play. You'll see the writer of Hebrews use this accounting implicitly throughout his letter, which is an explanation of why the end will come shortly after Paul's death -- at which time, he's writing (see Heb13:23).

By the way, Rehoboam became king 1000 years prior. Fitting parallel, since he's the king which caused the loss of Israel due to his cruelty.

[58]

Had Israel accepted Messiah, there would have been no "Church"; so there would have been no "Rapture", either (Rapture is not prophesied as an event in the OT, but rather only the times of the Gentiles, hence Trib and His 2nd Coming). The Daniel timeline to the end of Trib contiguously, would end yow 4200, with a 57-year hiatus between His Death and the end of the Trib. Idea was to allot 50 years for the Gentiles to be gathered (that's why Pentecost followed Passover, and was 50 days long dating from the LAST day of Passover, total of 57 days representing 57 years, with Trib as a 'payback' for Passover Week). So here we baldly see the undateable nature of the Rapture as a series of contingencies based ON the 1050. That trend continues, and we are still in the 'time bubble' of Daniel 9:26, for God uses the Church "time" to bridge back to Israel's time (Church is NOT Israel). Thus historical trends are all BASED ON Daniel 9:26, as Rev Chapters 6-19, elaborately explain.

[59]

Had Israel been positive to Messiah, the world would have been too negative, so during the last 50 years ending 4200, the vote would have been NO. Hence the Trib was supposed to occur NO LATER THAN 4193-4200. Messiah had to complete before the voting period began in 4150, so folks have a chance to vote for Him, worldwide. Also, because time is 'owed' 40 years for His Successful Completion, as originally scheduled. There would NOT have been "Church", in that case; the Jews would have had the role now assigned to Church, and the Gentiles would have converted into it. The 7 always plays inside a 40, hence the delay; but ensconced, inside the final 50-year voting period.

[60]

Note how in the very same year, a fake pope is replaced by a real John penning in Rev17 to beware of Rome. Bear in mind, it's not because it's Catholicism. The tenets of religion vary greatly, so a rose by any other name still has thorns. Just so happens we know the name of the religions Satan uses the most, since we have recorded history.

This begins the Dark Ages, as the Rev17 religious harlots eventually gain control of the northern hemisphere. They kidnapped the Bible from the common man for the better part of 18 centuries. But in their lust to monopolize or destroy the original-language texts of Bible, they turned out to be the best preservers of it; either by locking it away, or by their kidnapping causing others to lock it away for protection. Most any archeologist will easily confirm that ancient stuff has a habit of going 'missing' into private, protecting hands. It's a trend of history.

This isn't to blame Constantine or any other person or religion. But rather, the trend begins with his rule. Sincere people, insincere people, and of course scalawags are used by Satan&Co. We are all pawns. Satan could just as easily made the Rev17 harlot 'protestant'.. just as he's doing, today.

[63]

'Very much like Hitler's Germany, but spread over all of territory around the Med, which was most of the Roman Empire. This was the time of the Arians, the Donatists, the Nestorians, and a wide variety of other folks who didn't want to be enslaved by the Rev17 harlot. Granted, some of these dissenting folks had wacko ideas about what Bible said. But no one has the right to persecute another for his faith. Very black mark on the royal escutcheon, getting no reward at the Bema. We should be ASHAMED of this period. The religious even today still have the GALL to label it the "golden age of the Church Fathers"! So the harlot is still with us, now in many denominations.

[64]

BTTBs aren't accurate on Bible, but they always assert the Bible as THE authority; that's the only way to GET accurate faith. So it's the most important 'vote' a believer can make, to get Bible every day. Catholicism repressed Bible. So God did some housecleaning, here. Those invading Europe variantly bought Christianity, and they asserted independent rights of worship.

[65]

This was a satanic attempt to encircle/marginalize Western Europe, but it didn't work. People could vote with their feet. As a result, the Byzantine Empire cannibalizes itself.

[66]

Satan needs to keep Jerusalem in the minds of Christians as a substitute for learning Bible. The idea of fighting against the infidel makes one feel holy. So feeling holy, one will think himself holy and thus not think he needs to study God's Word. That tactic worked so well on the Jews from 586 BC onward, well.. reprise it. Constantly. They didn't have TV in the old days, so it was harder to motivate focus on the Holy Land. Of course, once Israel got politically established and technology developed enough, now you are inundated with focus on the Holy Land, and can take sides, every night at dinner.. while watching the nightly news coverage of the ongoing fight against the Jews, by Arabs.

[67]

'No matter what the denominational name given, the Rev17 harlot always acts the same way. It began as a pipe dream, became a monolith, and will now slowly collapse under its own weight; from it will come MANY Rev17 harlots, each one claiming to be more "in" with God than the next. There will be MANY religious states, all of them fighting in the name of God and all of them wacko. Welcome to modern history.

[68]

Technically, there would also be 50 years AFTER this, that final Gog and MaGog voting period. The revolution occurs AFTER the 1000 years has ended, Rev 20:7. So the 50-year voting period is presumed added. What bothers me is that it doesn't 'tie' to any date in the past, but should. So maybe I'm misaccounting this idea. Will vet it more later.

' Of course, to make this 2nd Exodus (cute), BOM's 1 Nephi 4 tells you the 'Holy Spirit' ordered Nephi to murder and then dress up in the victim's clothes, and then the Holy Spirit lalew's in the victim's voice, in order to LIE to those knowing the victim, and make good this escape. And no one believing in Smith's "Book of Mormon", notices this bald derision but instead hails it as Divine. Text is ribald, like the Koran and all those fake Gospels of the 1st-2nd century. Mormon Church's founding date of April 6th (1830) is the original Hebrew date of Christ's Resurrection (solar calendar that year). Clearly they couldn't know that, but Satan & Co. must compete/mimic whatever God does. They do it with all 'holy books'; Koran and Book of Mormon are the wittiest of the collection.

Work of S.P. Tregelles and C. von Tischendorf, inter alia, was to intensively collect, collate, and correct/compare all the original-language Bible manuscripts ("MSS" in scholar lingo) they could find.

'Later DNA testing on Neanderthals (German spelling) showed they aren't related to mankind. PBS video on this topic, I can't remember the title.

So again, the brouhaha comes from people reading INTO Bible, what's not there.

It's truly amazing how the anti-semitic accusations and machinations you see recorded in Exo 1, Ezra 1-5, Nehemiah and Esther, play out in history. Just change the names: the arguments are always the same. Worse, the same arguments are used by Jews against Jesus, and later (by Christian Jews) against Paul: see the Gospels and then Acts 15-22. Then just turn on your TV and listen carefully to any broadcast on the Middle East conflict, at any time between 1948 and today. Same stuff! Journalists have invented a name for it: "turnspeak" -- turn your own evil into THEIRs by accusing THEM of what you are. Psychologists call this "projection". Yeah, good propaganda, too.

[81]

Darwin's work doesn't really claim man transmutes, and instead counters the stupidity of the day that creatures (including man) are immutable once created. Bible never says that they are. Proper biological term is adaptation, which is what Darwin was reporting. Adaptation is indeed in the Bible, "after their kinds" clause. But amoebas can't become animals, etc. Sheer genetics proves that. Darwin isn't claiming that they can, isn't going beyond the bounds of genetics. But never mind, people just make up their own ideas and then say they are Darwinian. I love it when people don't do their homework. Evolution is a misnomer and a tautological idea which has very little in common with what Darwin wrote.

Satan couldn't make the Arabs wipe out Christians or Jews enough, so he switches to the friendship dialectic, simultaneously using our rightful love of Jews to generate a herding -- reinforced by all those pogroms which so characterise the 20th century. We Christians should defend Israel and Jews with our very lives, wherever they are; but Israel shouldn't BE there. It's a TRAP, see Matt24, Dan9:26, Rev11:1ff's sarcasm. This is Satan's FAKE Temple plan so he can herd the Jews for the future Armaggedon. Bible says only GOD will shub them at the 2nd Advent, Ezekiel 39ff, Isa61ff. Satan used the pogroms in Arab lands and Europe, to FORCE this trapping.

[84]

God has warned Israel to SEEK HIM, not human assistance, since the Exodus plagues on those who wanted to go back to Egypt. Israel never learns that lesson. So in 722BC, then 607, 597, 586, 538, 521, 167, 63, 37, then 30 and 64AD, God had to clean house using human agents: to repeat the lesson, Satan CONTROLS the world (see Matt4). So STOP relying on the world. We Christians are just as stupid, politicking instead of PRAYING, 2Chron 7:14!
