What is this mysterious 1,335 days? Is it a number of years that ended in the 1920s with the establishment of a new denomination or sect? Or does it have something to do with the six-day war of the Jews that ended in 1967. Or is it something that only God knows and that someday it will be revealed to the church or the Pope?
As we shall see it is none of those nor could it be. In order to comprehend the real truth about the 1,335 we must abandon all ideas that try to turn days into years and all traditional prophecies about which many wannabee prophets have written many books.
I sat down with a church minister before my Dad’s funeral, and I mentioned in the conversation that the key to understanding prophecy is understanding the Feasts and High days and their relationship to the revealed calendar. He look at me and I could tell this puzzled him. Then he said, “Oh yes, we do need to spend some time on that.”
Then later, a friend of mine came to my house and with him was a relative who was a Baptist Sunday school teacher, apparently from some big church somewhere. My friend was impressed with my book and he wanted his relative to see me. The Sunday school teacher asked me, after looking at the book, “What is this book about?” I replied, “It is about the great event that will take place at the end of the 1,335 days.” He put on the same puzzled expression as the minister and commented, “Oh yes, that is an important subject.”
Neither of these had any knowledge about these things other than they had heard about the Feast Days and about the 1,335 days.
The prior post in this series left with this statement given to Daniel which he wrote in chapter 12:
“Blessed is he [or she] who is waiting earnestly and comes to the one thousand three hundred and thirty-five days.”
Here is the shocking truth about when that day is and what it means for all creation. Those of you who have read my book already know what day that is.
In the prior posts in this series I assembled all the tools, facts, and prophecies that led up to this very special day. It really is a day worth waiting for, but we must start now and not put it off. We must make that day and time the biggest target of our mental and spiritual focus, attention and energy.
But first a little review.
The Last Seven Years of our Age and then some …
All end-time events that are tied to time periods, reference the time on the calendar revealed to our father Enoch. Without that revelation we cannot understand the important sequence of events of the end of our age.
There are three primary mile posts! These are not picked out of thin air. Instead, critical events happen at “appointed times” then we chart either backward in time or forward. The biggest marker is the Day of Yahua. The mile posts are:
- The day when the two witnesses start their three and one half years prophecy. This starts on the spring equinox, which is the first day of the first month on the revealed calendar.
- The day when the two witnesses are killed by the beast [great nation or empire]. This is the fall equinox, which is first day of the seventh month on the revealed calendar. It is also the Feast of Trumpets or Shouting.
- The Day of Yahua, which comes as a day of deliverance that ends the three and one half year time of the beast’s authority and power. This day is the first day of the first month and the spring equinox. It is also the first day of the eighth age.
There are also three other periods; one is independent of the revealed calendar and the other two are tied directly to it.
- The day when the sacrifices cease. This starts a time of counting 2,300 evenings and mornings independent of any calendar and continues until the Day of Yahua.
- The 1,290 days period that starts after the day when the sacrifices cease. The end of the 1290 days is the day when the abomination is set up in the Set-apart city. This comes during the time when the false prophet gives power to the beast sometime between the day the two witnesses are murdered and the Day of Yahua.
- The 1,335 days is a period related to a key event in the first list, but, as we shall see, it is tied to the last three and one half years. The 1,335 days is equal to three and one half years plus two and one half months. That means that it fits neatly into the end-time sequence of events.
More Signs Tied to ALL the Descendents of Jacob
The Feasts and the High days are appointed times and signs. These signs were to be closely associated with the 12 tribes of Jacob. They were spiritually married to Yahua by a covenant. The people of all the tribes of Israel, not Jews only, appears as a great and wondrous sign in heaven: “a woman clothed with the sun, with the moon under her feet, and a crown of twelve stars on her head.” (Revelation 12)
Some say this was Mary. But that is grossly incorrect. The sign included the woman, who is Israel, and the rest is a description of the relationship of the sun, moon and stars. The life of Israel, day after day, week after week, month after month, and year after year was “clothed” with perpetual events that started with the spring equinox that marked the new year on the 4th day of the week. Then three days later came the weekly Sabbath. Then came Passover, and so on. This was the clothing of the woman. Anyone who came to visit the people of Israel would have seen this garment covering all of Israel. And this would have marked them as a nation different from all other nations on earth. Also as noted, the calendar is solar, not lunar, the moon is in a subordinate position, and the crown of stars are the twelve months, each with its own star or constellation.
Because the Pharisees imposed the Babylonian calendar on Judah and the church the Roman calendar on the other “lost” nations of Israel, the woman walks today, naked and blind, in darkness carrying the moon on her back and no longer wearing the crown. But, this, too, will pass away and that is good news.
Who wants to know about this special time of the end?
Why would anyone want to know what will happen in the last several years of this age? I look at it as a blessing. Not everyone will understand these times, but those who are wise and have understanding will. Those who know will be aware that when they see these things, they will know that we are in the final “week” given to Daniel in the 70 weeks prophecy. If you know the truth now, then you know exactly what to look for. For that reason it is only revealed now — before that time comes on us. It will come shortly.
If a ram’s horn is blown in a city, do the people not tremble? If there is calamity in a city, shall not Yahua have done it? For the Master, Yahua, does no matter unless He reveals His secret to His servants the prophets. A lion has roared! Who is not afraid? The Master, Yahua, has spoken! Who would not prophesy? Amos 3:6-8
A New Temple or Tabernacle and Altar in Jerusalem?
Another event with no calendar marker is the rebuilding of a Temple or tabernacle structure with an altar on the “Temple Mount” in Jerusalem. It does not make sense that this would be a great structure like Solomon’s or Herod’s temple. After all this place is going to split in half when Yahua’s feet touch the Mount of Olives. (Zechariah 14) The building of a temple-like structure has no time period associated with it. But after it is built and is functioning, the real event to look for is when the two witnesses start to prophesy and three and a half years later they will be killed.
Why then all the noise about a “temple?” The original Tabernacle or Tent of Meeting came to be because of carefully detailed instructions given to Moses. Then later King David desired to build a House for Yahua using the pattern given to Moses, but David was prevented from building this because he was a reckoned a “bloody man.” David’s son, Solomon, carried out his father’s wishes and did build a magnificent building that not only demonstrated the spiritual connection the nation had with Yahua, but also became a sign to all the nations. The King built the Temple, the priests carried out the services. A powerful spiritual and political combination.
But shortly thereafter the nation of Israel split in two. Ten tribes of the northern Kingdom of Israel split away from the two tribes, Judah and Benjamin, of the southern part. These two tribes plus some of the Levites formed the Kingdom of Judah and became known as the Jews. From that time on the rest of the world has been confused and has mistakenly called Abraham, Isaac, Jacob and others “Jews,” which they were not.
The Assyrians invaded the northern kingdom, which was called the House of Israel, and took the people captive. The people from the northern kingdom later dispersed to Europe, Russia, and finally to the United States of America, Australia, New Zealand, and South Africa. After the Assyrians, the Babylonians came and took the House of Judah captive, cleaned out the Temple, and destroyed it and Jerusalem. Never was the Shechinah present in the next temples as it was in the Tabernacle and in the Temple built by Solomon.
Should we be looking for a temple to be built before the end of the seventh age of Enoch’s vision? Or should we be looking for something else?
The start of the two witnesses prophecy is an event mile stone and that starts on the first day of a new solar year on the spring equinox. Enoch’s revealed calendar tracks the events.
The next event is a “cessation of sacrifices.” When this happens it would start the counting of the 2,300 evenings and mornings to the beginning of the next age when the righteous are given authority and ruler. But what does the “2,300 evenings and mornings” really mean? It is certainly an end of the age event as the messenger told Daniel but is it a physical or spiritual event? And is the supposed “temple” that will appear at the end of our age a building or something far more powerful. Keep reading.
Following that will be the murder of the two witnesses in Jerusalem. This will happen, according to revealed calendar on the first day of the seventh month, which is the Feast of Trumpets and is also the fall equinox. Three and one half days later, in view of the world, the two witnesses will be raised up and a voice will tell them to come up to heaven and they will ascend.
This is also the time when the counting of the 1,335 days starts. The Feast of Trumpets or “Shouting” is the time when the beast/dragon makes war against the righteous and the elect. The shouting is the strong cries and prayers of the descendants of Jacob to their Elohim to save them from this awful time and evil. It is a time of great spiritual battles and of great trouble on the earth. Three and a half years later the beast/dragon and those who joined with them take their war against Yahua and his armies and are defeated. Also at this time the righteous and elect are raised from the dead.
Therefore, when the Day of Yahua comes, three and a half years or 1,260 days of the 1,335 days have now passed and only 75 days remain.
What happens at the end of the 1,335 days?
There is only one interval of 1,335 days on the revealed calendar with the Feasts and Holy days applied to it. It is the time from the Feast of Trumpets, when the two witnesses are killed, and then 1,260 days plus 75 days later, brings us to the first Feast of Weeks, also called the Feast of Firstfruits, on the 15th day of third month of the first year of the next age! This is the only time in these prophecies that spans both ages!
This is what has been sealed up until our day and time, and is now revealed to all who have ears that hear and eyes that see.
Why?
It is a sign and a message to the those who have wisdom and understanding. Those who hear and understand this message now have knowledge that can help them through this time of great tribulation that will come shortly upon the whole earth.
What is so significant about that day?
It is a double Feast. It is the Feast of Weeks, and it is also the Feast of Firstfruits. Both reached their most significance at this time in the history of the human people.
The Feast of Weeks
This is a celebration of the first seven weeks of Enoch’s vision. The Law instructs the people to “Count” seven complete weeks starting with the week after the Feast of Unleavened Bread and after the first weekly Sabbath after the Feast of Unleavened Bread. Seven full weeks later ends with the weekly Sabbath, and the very next day, the first day of the week, is the Feast of Weeks and the Feast of Firstfruits. This is the 50th day and so some adopted the name as Pentecost. However, the original names are much more important. Thus the Feast of Weeks signifies the completion of the first seven weeks or ages. The very next day, the day of this feast, also represents the start of the great Eighth age. The counting of the seven weeks is a memorial of the time of human rule and the keeping of this Feast and High day allows the people and the nations to compare the past with the present right-ruling ages until the time of the new heavens and the new earth.
The Feast of Firstfruits
This Feast, which happens on the same day as the Feast of Weeks, is very unusual. This is the day the entire creation has waited for. It is the day when the righteous will be revealed to the world and presented before their Father in heaven. These are those who overcame during the time of the first seven ages. During this time they gained wisdom and understanding and separated themselves from the world and its unclean and crooked ways. Some came out of the Babylon religions. These are all the righteous from all nations, tribes and languages. In the Book of Revelation they are called the “innumerable multitude.” Even though the greatest time of trouble in the world, even greater than the flood, happens at the end of this age, there has been a time of great tribulation or distress from the very beginning. It started with the trouble that Adam and Eve got into and the murder of their son, Abel, and it ends on the Day of Yahua.
Before Christians get too comfortable in their fallacious hope of a “rapture” that will “take them out this time of trouble and guarantee their place in the Kingdom”, think about this: the so-called “Church age” or “Age of Grace” is nothing less than the Age of Apostasy that Enoch saw in his vision. It is the seventh and last age before the great change to right-ruling. This means that all people around the earth who are engaged in religious activity need to deeply reconsider their current spiritual position, in other words, “repent and flee from the wrath to come.” The proclamations by a Pope that “the only path to salvation is through the Catholic church” is not truth. It is a deception to lure people under their control. It is counter to salvation! Also the so-called “apostolic succession through Peter” is also false. The only succession is through Paul the Pharisee, who learned little to nothing from Peter.
Since Man walked this earth there has been only one way to salvation and this is righteousness, and that means right-doing that comes as a natural product of right-being, combined with wisdom, understanding and knowledge.
The Torah Speaks of That Day
There are some details about this great event that we need to know. After the Feast of Unleavened Bread ends, on the first day of the following week, a special event was to happen each year. A sheaf of wheat was presented to EL as the Wave Sheaf. This was done by waving the sheaf in an overhead ascending motion. This symbolized the presenting of the Firstfruit or Firstborn of the harvest and is symbolic of the Firstborn Son raising from the dead and appearing before the Father. This is from Leviticus 23 and is part of what is to be done after the Feast of Unleavened Bread.
And Eyahuwah spoke to Moses, saying, “Speak to the children of Israel, and you shall say to them, ‘When you come into the land which I give you, and shall reap its harvest, then you shall bring a sheaf of the first-fruits of your harvest to the priest. And he shall wave the sheaf before Eyahuwah, for your acceptance. On the morrow [next day] after the Sabbath, the priest waves it.
This was what Yahushua [Jesus] reminded Mary Magdalene in the garden on the after He had been raised from the dead:
“Do not hold on to me, for I have not yet ascended to My Father. But go to my brothers and say to them, ‘I am ascending to My Father and your Father, to My Elohim and your Elohim.’” John 20:17 The Scriptures
First understand that Yahua became Yahushua, the one we call Jesus. Yahua is the One who made the covenants with our father’s, including Enoch, Noah, Abraham, Isaac and Jacob. Yahua came to the earth and was born, not in December, but during the Feast of Booths or Tabernacles after the 15th day of the seventh month on the revealed calendar. He is the One who spoke to Moses and to the descendants of Jacob at Mount Sinai. Then at the right time He came to His people to fulfill the terms and conditions of the covenants:
And the Word became flesh and pitched his tent among us. John 1:14
The last part is a literal translation and is a reference to the Feast of Tabernacles [Tents] or Booths during which days He was born.
In this context let us now examine further what is written in the Torah in the book of Leviticus:
And on that day when you wave the sheaf, you shall prepare a male lamb a year old, a perfect one, as a burnt offering to Eyahuwah, and its grain offering: two-tenths of an ephah of fine flour mixed with oil, and offering made by fire to Eyahuwah, a sweet fragrance, and its drink offering: one-fourth of a hin of wine. And you do NOT eat bread of roasted grain or fresh grain until the same day that you have brought an offering to your Elohim — a law forever throughout your generations in all your dwelling.
The eating of “bread of roasted grain or fresh grain” was prohibited beginning with the next day after the close of the Feast of Unleavened Bread for the following four days. Then on the first day of the week the Wave Sheaf is offered along with the appropriate sacrifices and this becomes the first day of the counting off the “seven weeks” and that counting ends with the Feast of Firstfruits:
And from the morrow after the Sabbath, from the day that you brought the sheaf of the wave offering, you shall count for yourselves seven complete Sabbaths [weeks].
In other words, the counting starts with the week that begins after the Sabbath that comes during the week when the wave sheaf is offered.
Until the morrow [next day] after the seventh Sabbath you count fifty days; then you shall bring a new grain offering to Eyahuwah.
It is this new grain offering that reveals why the day that ends the 1,335 days is one of the greatest days yet to happen in the history of humanity.
There is only One assigned to make this a part of our life and that is Eyahuwah. From before there was a heaven and earth, He was Chosen to raise up Sons of EL from the “stones” of the universe. The Firstfruits of that enormous project will be revealed on the Feast of Firstfruits at the end of the 1,335 days revealed to Daniel and sealed until this time.
To be continued …
Concerning Israel and the temple, when the sacrifices are stopped by the anti-christ meaning at that point the Jewish temple on Mt. Zion was bebuilt, where are Mulism’s worshipping at that point?
The sacrifices were already stopped by the gentiles (Romans). Therefore, if a temple or tabernacle is set up on the temple mount, it will have to be a “fortress.” This is the term that it used in prophecy. It will also not have an outer court. Obviously this will bring focus and animosity toward Judah and will stir up the radical Islams into a fever pitch. The stopping of the sacrifices (evening and morning) will start the count of the 2300 evenings and mornings (days) leading to (1) the setting up of the abomination of desolation, and (2) a countdown to a restoration of true temple worship in the next age — the Age of Righteousness during the Day of Yahua.
Did you mean ’2300′ evenings and mornings instead of ’3500′? T. Herron
I am not sure where this is on the page. In comments? I will need to examine everything on that page to consider what changes need to be made. Sometimes my fingers type things that come from reflexes and habit with the brain detached. Weird.
It is on the previous comment. T. Herron From Timothy Sakach … It has been corrected to 2300. Thanks.
I find your concept interesting. However, I believe you’re missing the deeper meaning of the departure of the two witnesses in (Rev.11 kjv). I believe the events in ( Rev.11: 2) is the same (42 month) period conveyed to us in (Rev.13: 5). I believe that this is a time (42 mos.) outside of the seven year tribulation period and has nothing to do with that antichrist or (Dan.7 :25). I believe (Rev.13) has more to do with a system and that system will eventually usher in that Wicked one, antichrist (2 Thess.2 : 8). However, I believe there is one spoken of in (Rev.13) who is that same one called the eighth in (Rev.17:11). I further believe that this one who goes into perdition (v.11) is that same son of perdition as (2 Thess.2: 3). Therefore, it appears to me that Scripture is indicating that that son of perdition discussed in (2 Thess.2, v.3) must be taken out of the way in (v.7) so that that WICKED, antichrist, might be revealed in (v.8). For it makes it clear that, that WHAT, that must be taken out of the way, in (v.6 kjv) is that son of perdition being dicussed in (v v.3,4) and is different than that Wicked in (v.8). I further believe that this (42 month) period is the time of Jacob’s Trouble (the Lord’s Wrath) and is a separate time and is before the 7 year tribulation period. Thus, the revealing of the (42 mos.) (Rev.11: 2) Jacob’s Trouble, then the beginning of the period of the Two Witnesses (Rev.11: 3) and the tribulation times (7 years). I believe that after the time of that Trouble (42 mos.) then does the Bride present herself clean, spotless and wrinkled free and is raptured. For (the Lord’s Wrath) as a fiery cleansing always removes the spots and its heat the wrinkles! Thus, the Bride is prepared. Thus, the revealing of the (42 mos.) (Rev.11: 2) then the beginning of the period of the Two witnesses (Rev.11: 3). Yet, the Two witnesses do not appear at the beginning of the seven year period but at the latter half. So the first 3 1/2 yrs here in (Rev.11) is concealed. So that the period of the Two witnesses starts in the midst of the seven year period. Where are they the first 3 1/2 years? They like all those raptured must attend the marriage supper of the Lamb. These events last the course of 3 1/2 years. the Two Witnesses return to care for and protect the woman the last half of tribulations. This is made clear through God’s Word. The Two Witnesses are the same (they) in (Rev.11:3,6,7) as the (they) who feeds her in the wilderness the one thousand two hundred and threescrore days (Rev.12: 6,14) and they nourished her for that same period for a time and times and half a time. These verses are speaking of the final last half of the seven year tribulation period and the Two Witnesses remain on earth with the woman in the wilderness, feeding and nourishing her almost to the very end of years. So I believe that not only is (Rev.11) revealing a 10 1/2 period before the end of years but also (Rev.12) is conveying the time of Jacob’s Trouble and the Tribulation period, consisting of that same 10 1/2 years of time.
Thank you for your comment. The first thing I must say is that your writing (aside from the casual reference to the time of “Jacob’s trouble” (Jeremiah 31) ) is a typical Christian approach to understanding Revelation. And I agree with those who say that the Christians “read the Scriptures backwards.” They start at the end and work backward. Whereas, the correct way is to start at the beginning with Enoch, Moses, the Prophets, and finally, with the true Apostles. But most Christians can’t see that. To make understanding even more difficult for Christians is that they start with Paul, whom the Apostles considered a heretic and trouble maker, following the way of Balaam by teaching the people falsehoods and thus bringing a curse upon their selves. There are two groups that make up the New Testament: the Jewish Apostles, and the group led by Paul consisting of Mark, Luke, Timothy and others who followed Paul. After Paul had cobbled together the Greek New Testament by translating the Hebrew and Aramaic writings of the true Apostles into Greek, the Apostle John (Yohanan) countered Paul’s Greek mishmash. John, in the Spirit, embedded clues in Revelation to pass on to those with insight concerning what really happened during the time after the destruction of the Temple and before the dispersion of the People in 135AD — the same time referred to by Yahushua in Matthew 24, and by Daniel in chapter 9 and by Enoch in chapter 93. John also included a curse to any who changed the Revelation either by removing or adding words and phrases, as Paul did with the rest. But Matthew (Mattithyahu) also made reference to Daniel, whom he wrote the reader should understand, if the reader wanted to understand the prophecies of chapter 24. Evidence in Revelation indicates that John also had the books of Daniel, Ezekiel, Enoch, and Paul’s “New Testament” at hand when writing down what he saw in the visions. And given that he had Daniel and Ezekiel, he probably had all the books of the Hebrew Scriptures. Why is that important? Because it is evident that you referred to none of these in your comment! In one place, you even booted Daniel out of consideration! One thing is clear, if you understand Enoch: the period of 42 months, 1260 days, and three and half years are equal periods of time on Enoch’s calendar. They may cover different or the same times in prophecy, but those times can only be counted on Enoch’s calendar, which he received as a revelation from the Messenger Uriel! In order for anyone to understand Revelation, they must understand the visions and prophecies of The Five Books of Enoch first, then the instruction of The Five Books of Moses, then the history and prophecies concerning Israel, and then and only then the writings of the Jewish apostles. And believe it or not, you do not need to consider Paul’s writings and theology at all! Paul’s writings are a test and a filter. If you seek understanding from them first, you will not understand the revealed truth of the Scriptures. Hard words? You betcha! His words create a context from which one must “overcome” and be free before one can understand and have insight (Dan 12). And the way to do that is to forget what one has learned from Pauline theology, and start over by going back and rebuilding on the rock solid foundation of our righteous fathers. Now concerning Revelation. It is constructed as layers of overlapping and mostly sequential events. The understanding of it is only possible by “Overcoming” the dogma and teachings of the “great” religions first — including Christianity! The prophecies of Enoch, Daniel, and Ezekiel are interwoven into Revelation’s context. For example, Ezekiel is a parallel to Revelation. One of the last great events in Ezekiel, after terrible trials, death and destruction, is the resurrection of “all the house of Israel (Jacob)” — all the People of all of the Tribes of Israel, which includes but is not limited to the tribe of Judah. The understanding of who, where, how, what and why concerning “Jacob” and the time of “Jacob’s Trouble” is a key to understanding end-time prophecies. It has nothing to do with a “rapture of the church or Christians” per se, but of the descendants of Jacob. The Apostle’s were sent to bring this message to the “lost tribes of Israel” wherever they are in the world. Also Daniel’s beast and the beast of Revelation are virtually the same thing. Understanding that makes it clear that we are still under “Roman rule” and have been since before Yahushua was born. The People of Israel have resisted this dominion from the time “Rome” took dominion over them. But this is coming to an end. Then the last of Daniel’s beast will form (the ten toes a mixture of iron and clay) and dominate the world in the last years of this age. The beast will try to destroy Israel (not just Judea and the Jews of Judah), but all of Israel wherever they have been scattered over the earth. But that beast will finally be destroyed by Yahua of Armies, and the rule of the nations will be given to the righteous forever (read Enoch’s visions). Another example is from Revelation. The “Trumpets” starting in Revelation 8 herald the start of events that will bring this age to a close. The first five trumpets seem to tell of great destruction and change coming from outside the earth. The fifth trumpet is also the “first woe.” These are events that happen before the two witnesses start their prophecy. These events are so disruptive that they have the potential of changing the government of the earth and open the door for the end of Roman rule and the beginning of the rule by the “10 toes.” The second woe includes the two witnesses. The third woe happens after the death of the two witnesses and leads to the end of the dominion of the beast, and the return of Yahua to earth to “cut the days or short” — the days of the last three and a half years. So, I appreciate your efforts, and hope you will rethink your positions. I can see that you don’t agree with me now, but if you “overcome” and “change” your mind, then you and those who do the same, will be strengthened and cleansed and made ready for the next age — the age of righteous rule!
Thank you for your quick response. Interesting that God still uses the Hebrew festival dates to mark special events. Did you notice that the last 2 record drops in the stock market occured exactly on the day Rosh HaShanah is celebrated in Israel? The market dropped 684 points on Sept 17, 2001 and then again 7 years later dropped 778 points on Sept 29, 2008, both dates on Rosh HaShanah! Pure coincidence? Lorenzo
Probably not a coincidence. Looks more like a warning from my point of view. Good things happen on “clean” days so it does not come as a surprise that trouble comes on the “unclean” days. Although Enoch is still hidden from the world, the significance of the events that happen on the Feasts and High days according to Enoch’s calendar will become more apparent. Currently each new quarter on Enoch’s calendar shows a ratcheting up of trouble as each new quarter comes. There has been a noticeable increase in “pressure” with each quarter since I started tracking this in December of 2007. The current economic meltdown started to raise its head on or about the fall equinox in September of 2008. Then it really exploded in December of 2008 at the time of the solstice. This month will start the true “Rosh HaShanah” (new year) on the spring equinox. I am wondering what the “shock” factor will be associated with it. The economic situation has been a spiritual fight against the greed and corruption that developed in the banks and investment world, and among the people. Notice the prophecy of Zechariah 5 in this post — published in conjunction with the winter solstice: http://innertech.com/blog/2008/12/end-time-enochs-fourth-quarter-starts-december-21-2008-at-sunset-jerusalem-time/
Also regarding the above, I think it is important to point out that the intent of the Jewish people is to learn and observe the law. The problem being that they lost their way prior to, during, and after the exile in Babylonia. There is no question that if they understood and believed that, they would without doubt desire to keep the Feasts and Holy Days on the clean days. But they must first receive some encouragement and incentive to do so. The entire world must change, but repentance and salvation will come to Judah first and then to the rest of the world. Their salvation (deliverance) does not require that they adopt a supposed “Christian” solution. Nor should Christians adopt Judasim. Instead both must “Remember the Torah of Mosheh, My servant, which I commanded him on Horeb for all Yisrael — laws and right-rulings.” (Malaki 4:8) Now they follow the “oral” laws of the Pharisees and secularism, both a “substitute” for Mosheh. Change must come not only for Judah, but also for all the tribes (nations) of Yisrael wherever they are in the world today.
I’ve studied bible prophecy and how it relates to the Jewish feasts and have come up with my own timeline for the end time events which I’d like to share with you and get your comments. The 2 witnesses appearing at the first day of the Spring Equinox line up nicely with this timeline as well: 1. As you are aware, Jesus said that the generation that would see the rebirth of Israel, will not pass away before his second coming at the end of the tribulation (Matt 24:27-35) 2. Psalm 90:10 and Isaiah 23:17 state that one generation lasts 70 years x 360 days = 25,200 days 3. Alternatively, one can consider today’s generation of Jews. Today’s male life expectancy in Israel is 78 years x 365 days = 28,470 days as the outer limit for this generation and Jesus’ return. 4. Consequently, Jesus return could happen by Friday, May 12, 2017 (end of 70 biblical years), but no later than Saturday, April 25, 2026 (end of 78 current years). 5. Daniel 9:27 states that the antichrist will stop animal sacrifice in the temple, claim he is the Messiah and place the abomination that causes desolation in the temple in the middle of tribulation (1260 days) 6. Daniel 8:14 states that the total period of animal sacrifices plus abomination that causes desolation in the temple would last 2300 days. 7. Daniel 12:11 states that the abomination is removed at 1260 days plus 1290 days = 2550 days from the start of the tribulation. 8. Therefore, sacrifices don’t start until 2550 days – 2300 days = 250 days after confirming the 7 year peace treaty, the start of the tribulation 9. Similarly, animal sacrifices will last 2300 days – 1290 days = 1010 days 10. 250 days matches the time between Passover and the Feast of Dedication Chanukah which is the time it took for Judah Maccabbee to rebuild, cleanse and rededicate the temple the last time it was desecrated by Antiochus Epiphane. He began animal sacrifices again at Chanukah – the Feast of Dedication, which is the most probable date for the resumption of sacrifices in the 3rd temple. 11. Assuming the Peace Treaty is confirmed with the antichrist on Passover 2010 (Friday, April 2, 2010) you add 250 days to allow for restoration, cleansing and dedication of the temple for animal sacrifice, you arrive at the Feast of Dedication – Chanuka (Wednesday, December 8, 2010). 12. If you add 1010 days of animal sacrifices, you arrive at the middle of the tribulation on the Day of Atonement – Yom Kippur (Friday, September 13, 2013) the day the antichrist stops animal sacrifice, claims he is the Messiah and places the abomination on the temple, exactly on the day the Jews herald the return of their Messiah! 13. If you add 1260 days, for Jesus to return at the end of the 70th week, you arrive at Friday, February 24, 2017. This date falls short of a Jewish festival, which makes sense since Jesus explains that He has to cut those days short for the sake of the elect, otherwise no one would survive (Matthew 24:22). 14. If you add 30 more days for the removal of the abomination that causes desolation from the temple, you arrive at Sunday, March 26, 2017 15. If you add 45 more days for the blessing at the end of the 1335 days per Daniel 12:12, you arrive exactly at 2nd Passover on Wednesday, May 10, 2017! This could be the date of dedication of the Millenium reign of Christ since it is 75 days after his return to earth which also matches the number of days between the day of atonement when the High Priest enters the Holy of Holies and Chanuka – the Feast of Dedication. Interestingly, May 10, 2017 is also 2 days before the end of the 70th generation since the rebirth of Israel! I checked every year from 2010 till 2022, and the above periods only fall on those Jewish Holidays (Chanuka, Yom Kippur and 2nd Passover) again if you start the tribulation on Passover 2015! Considering Enoch’s prophecy that the 2 witnesses appear on the first day of Spring Equinox, it lines up with the tribulation starting at Passover 2010, because the first day of Spring Equinox, March 21 falls on a Saturday next year and it doesn’t occur again for the rest of this decade! This also lines up with the Jewish Tradition that Elijah will show up at Passover just 10 days later! So the above calculations point to the beginning of the Tribulation and Daniel’s 70th Week starting at Passover 2010. Another thing to consider is why would the millenium reign of Christ start at 2nd Passover, the end of the 1335 days? Jesus comes to judge the nations first, separating the sheep from the goats from the people that survived the tribulation. The goats dying and going to hell. This makes sense since at the first Passover, the first born of Egypt died as ransom for the Jews to be freed from slavery and it marked the beginning of the Age of Mosaic Law. At Passover, Jesus died as a ransom for all, so believers would be freed from sin and it marked the Age of Grace for the Church. At the next Passover, the sinners left at the end of the tribulation will die as ransom for the righteous to be freed from death and it will mark the Age of the Millenium Reign of Christ! The reason this can not happen at Passover April 10, 2017 may be because one can not celebrate passover if one has touched a dead person per Mosaic law, which is why he created the 2nd Passover. This is likely to be the case after the judgement of the nations, which could explain why the blessing comes at 2nd Passover. This does not establish the day of the rapture, which could happen at any time between now and then. There you have it. Lorenzo Garay >
With all respect I cannot agree with your assessment of the prophecies. First, you cannot use the Jewish times of Feasts and High days. These times and the lunar calendar, which they borrowed from the nations around them, were condemned by both the pre and post exile prophets. Only the alignment of the Feasts and High days on Enoch’s calendar is significant. These days on that calendar are the “clean” days. But the Sabbath, Feasts and High days imposed on secular calendars, such as the Babylonian lunar calendar are unclean, making the people who observe those times also unclean! Therefore, because your time-line is predicated upon a relationship with the Jewish lunar calendar and borrows from both Jewish and Christian traditions, it will not stand. I recommend that you “zero-base” your thinking and start afresh without considering any relationship to any other calendar than the one revealed to Enoch. And desire and trust only the Spirit of Yahua that was in Enoch, Moses, the prophets, and the true apostles.
In reference to the following portion of your article, three paragraphs in quotations: “Should we be looking for a temple to be built before the end of the seventh age of Enoch’s vision? Or should we be looking for something else? The start of the two witnesses prophecy is an event mile stone and that starts on the first day of a new solar year on the spring equinox. Enoch’s revealed calendar tracks the events. The next event is a “cessation of sacrifices.” When this happens it would start the counting of the 2,300 evenings and mornings to the beginning of the next age when the righteous are given authority and ruler. But what does the “2,300 evenings and mornings” really mean? It is certainly an end of the age event as the messenger told Daniel but is it a physical or spiritual event? And is the supposed “temple” that will appear at the end of our age a building or something far more powerful.” Now my questions and ponderings (I hope you can answer because I really feel the need to know the answers to these questions. In reading this article, if you answered these questions, it went over my head, sorry.): In the Old Testament the Temple was a physical Building. The sacrifices were physical sacrifices, in the form of blood slaughter of animals. The oblations were physical (non-blood offerings and gifts) If the prophecy is tied to the physical, it appears that another physical Temple will of necessity be built and the physical practice of blood sacrifice of animals will be reinstituted as well as physical oblations or non-blood offerings or gifts. But: If this is an analogy of something spiritual, what does the physical Temple represent, that we shoud be looking for? What/Who is the spiritual temple that this particular prophecy represents that would, of necessity, have to be rebuilt (or would it?)? Then once this question is answered there is the next question: If the daily sacrifices and oblations are to be ceased (since that is where the 2300 evening and morning count starts), does that mean the physical sacrifices of animals and non blood offerings and gifts or does that represent, once again, something spiritual. If so, what is it, so we can be looking for it? Thanks
Darlene, I need to get control of my run-on sentences. Sorry about that. The history of the Temple is interesting. You know that the original plan was not a temple but rather a tabernacle or tent-structure. The Temple that Solomon built was honored when the cloud filled the temple, in the same way the cloud filled the Tabernacle that Moses built. As far as offerings go, there were different kinds. The daily or perpetual offering was made twice each day in the morning and in the evening. Then there are the offerings on each of the High Days. These were highly symbolic. The largest offering was made during the Feast of Firstfruits. This represents those individuals who overcame the world and are righteous. They gave up their life in this world for something better. This I have written about elsewhere. The Tabernacle and Temple was a symbol of the Throne in the Heaven. This is where the Ancient of Days sits along with the Chosen One (Son of Man), and the Lord of Spirits. It represents the Domain of Elohim. Therefore any offerings had special meaning. The problem was that after Solomon everything turned to a religion. The people thought that all they had to do to “please” EL was to ritually follow the Law. But their mistakes happened when they changed the Law to make it more convenient. Their “ritual” sacrifices became an abomination. So did their feasts and their appointed times. They thought it more convenient to follow the ways of the nations. They adopted a different calendar. This caused them to perform other abominations by trying to perform sacrifices and keep the feasts and high days on “unclean” days. They also forsook the covenant with Levi — the priests — and looked for instruction from lay people — the Pharisees and later the rabbis. The fact that Pharisees “sat in Moses seat” only brings upon them greater judgment! As a result no more “cloud” and no more answered prayer. Considering the problems of our time, I find it difficult to imagine that the Jews will build a big Temple. All they really need is a Tabernacle. After all when the end of this age comes, Jerusalem will split in two parts by a massive earthquake. This will start at the Mount of Olives and proceed east and west — right through the heart of the “Temple mount.” (Zechariah 14) The Jews are currently following the Babylonian lunar calendar. They even mistranslated the Hebrew for “new month” and substituted the words “New Moon”. The Hebrew for “New Moon” does not appear in Scripture. Obviously, “Your ‘new moons’ and appointed times, I hate,” said Yahua through the prophets. Therefore any sacrifices made on their High Days are unclean. But evening and morning (daily sacrifices) can be offered each day regardless of the calendar. This is why it is referred to as 2,300 evenings and mornings. That takes the determination away from Enoch’s calendar. This ties it to the sun and in particular to the sunset as each day begins and ends in the evening. The evening and morning sacrifices are sacrifices that daily recognize the sin of the people. These were to be made in the presence of Yahua at the opening of the “Tent of Meeting.” Then Yahua would meet with the people there and hear their prayers. These sacrifices are most appropriate for our present condition — not only for Judah, but also for Joseph. It is this relationship with Yahua that needs to be restored. Then after that Yahua will be with them “to the end of the age” and forever. He will take up the fight. He will lead His people through the tribulation at the end of this age. 1290 days (on Enoch’s Calendar) after the sacrifices cease, the abomination that brings about desolation will be set up in the Holy Place. Then the final battle will remove the wicked and the rulers and give the nations to the righteous. The 2300 days also starts a countdown to the end of the age, “then that which is set-apart shall be made right.”
