    ‘scholar’:

    pretty coloured charts

    ‘scholar’s’ ability to understand things apparently doesn’t extend beyond ‘liking pretty colours’. You have to read the words too.

    The 'words' that you should heed are those contained in God's Word not that of NB Chronology which conflicts with God's Word and that of WT sacred Bible Chronology.

    You have to realize that the dedication of Solomon's Temple was a Jubilee year. 950 BC. That was the 60th Jubilee.

    If you know the former Jewish calendar it was Lunar/Solar. The Sabbaths were on the 8th, 15th, 22nd and 29th of each lunar month. There were 49 lunar weeks in a year. The 70th Jubilee was in 460 BC. That was 70 years after the destruction of the Temple. That is also 490 years from 31 AD when Jesus was crucified and resurrected.

    If you know the Jubilees this will become clearer to you and you wont dispute it.

    The count to Pentecost (Feast of Weeks) was from the 16th of the first lunar month to the 9th day of the 3rd month. That is 7 Sabbath weeks - each week ending on a sabbath day plus 1 day to end on the first day of the week on the 2nd week in the 3rd month. Why are you counting weeks when the day you land on is always the same? - because it is teaching you to count down the Jubilees as the Jews were counting time in the Book of Jubilees. Now how many days are there from the 9th day of the 3rd month to the Day of Atonement - when the Jubilee is heralded? - 120 days. (do the math - 9th day to end of 3rd month is 21 days. + (3 * 29.5 for months 4-6) + 10.5 days to the Day of Atonement (10th day of the 7th month). = 120 days.

    Now how do you know the day that the Temple was destroyed was on the 60th Jubilee? Because you can count from the 9th day of the 3rd month to the 10th day of the 5th month and that is 60 days.

    Then you have the following:

    Hag 1:1 In the second year of Darius the king, in the sixth month, in the first day of the month, came the word of the LORD by Haggai the prophet unto Zerubbabel the son of Shealtiel, governor of Judah, and to Joshua the son of Josedech, the high priest, saying,

    So if you count to that time from the 9th of the 3rd month you will see that is the 80th day. So that decree from Darius (which is part of the fulfillment of the 70 weeks of Daniel) will take you to the 80th Jubilee. But we should already know this because Moses said a prophet like until him would come and Paul confirms that Prophet was Christ. Moses began that ministry at 80 years old signaling the 80th Jubilee and died at 120 years old signaling that Jesus would lead his congregation for 40 Jubilee years beginning in the 80th Jubilee (declared in 31 AD) unto the 120th (declared in 1991). But man gets the 120 Jubilees (Genesis 6:3). So He returns in the 121st Jubilee - Sept of 2040 (go look up the Astronomy in Virgo in Sept of 2040 what do you see and when? What is significant about that time of the year? (Feast of Trumpets, Day of Atonement, etc..). You SEE? Can you SEE?

    Once you do, the VAT will take on a new perspective that hopefully you will understand as I do.

    Also, check this link. It shows that the work on the Temple BEGAN in 959 BC. It was dedicated in 950 BC. Again in accordance with the timeline I provided. And the death of Solomon also recorded in this link is also in sync with my timeline:

    Scholar,

    And all I asked is why you can't read Hebrew?

    Though jubilee years are defined in Leviticus, there is no consensus about any specific year actually being observed as a jubilee year, and the Bible doesn’t mention any jubilee years actually observed beyond the definition of the term. Logically, the tradition would point to 537 BCE and hence 587 BCE as jubilee years, and other years could be extrapolated therefrom by the most direct reading, but there also isn’t total agreement whether it should be the 49th or 50th year.

    Your chosen article is from 1950. We know better now.

    And so we get to the crux of it. Yet another ‘not-too-far-off’ nutty end times prediction. Good grief.

    VAT4956 Obverse Line 4:

    A / H:

    4: or 12th, Jupiter's acronychal rising. On the 14th, one god was seen with the other; sunrise to moonset: 4o.

    The 15th, overcast. The 16th, Venus [ .... ]

    N / W:

    4. or the 12th Jupiter apparently rose acronychally. On the 14th, the god was visible with the god; 16m passed between sunrise and moonset on the next morning. On the 15th, it was overcast. On the 16th Venus [ ... ].

    This is another demonstration of why I prefer N / W over A / H. Such a striking difference.
