That is a lie you need to tell yourself but I actually understand the dating system very well.

Self-praise is no recommendation. If you are such an expert then please provide specific information on that solstice or other that you have published.

🤦♂️ I have not asserted any unique or novel claim about the correct date of the solstice.

Yes, and neither have you published a single line of evidence that disproves 607 BCE!!!

Jeffro:
We all just kind of get to that point.
So you can't have 1914 without 607 and the second fulfilment of the 7 times was an anti typical fulfilment. Did the society not push antitypes under the old light carpet sometime back? In doing so how did they not dynamite the foundation of their own authority? It's all just b******* on steroids guys, stop arguing about it and do something useful with your time.

Correct, 1914 CE depends on 607 BCE and the second fulfilment of the 7 times is well supported by exegesis of Dan 4 and Luke 21:24. Such a viewpoint is not an antitype but a larger fulfilment of a prophecy and thus entirely justified based on the biblical evidence.

Back in reality there isn’t a single scripture that even mentions 70 years of exile.
The Bible says 70 years was a period of all the nations serving Babylon, that nations could avoid exile by serving Babylon willingly, that Babylon was called to account when 70 years ended, that 70 years ended when Persia began to reign, and that attention was given to the Jews’ return after the 70 years ended.
But JWs don’t really care what the Bible actually says.
They are going to have to make up a 3rd generation link since so much time is passing...so sad what we Aussies call whipping a dead horse.
" But JWs don’t really care what the Bible actually says. " neither does "Scholar", Eisegesis as used by Scholar and the J.W's is simply NOT the way to understand what the Bible says, and is rightly dismissed and ridiculed as a method by REAL Biblical Scholars !
Thank you for your comments here Jeffro, and the excellent work you did in the past on the 1914 Tosh, all of your erudite work being confirmed by REAL Scholars from many disciplines.
