The December solstice marks the first day of winter in the northern hemisphere and summer in the southern hemisphere. But it also starts the last quarter of Enoch‘s revealed calendar, which starts at sunset in Jerusalem on December 21. The first day ends at sunset on December 22.
sol·stice (From Merriam-Webster.com/dictionary)
Pronunciation: \ˈsäl-stəs, ˈsōl-, ˈsȯl-\
Function: noun
Etymology: Middle English, from Latin solstitium, from sol sun + -stit-, -stes standing; akin to Latin stare to stand
Date: 13th century
1 : either of the two points on the ecliptic at which its distance from the celestial equator is greatest and which is reached by the sun each year about June 22 and December 22; 2 : the time of the sun’s passing a solstice which occurs about June 22 to begin summer in the northern hemisphere and about December 22 to begin winter in the northern hemisphere
This post contains a fresh look at the prophecies including those of Daniel, Zechariah, and John that make clear what events will happen in the end of this age and why. We are given this information at this time so that those who hear will know what is shortly coming on the world.
This is the revelation of Yahushua, which Elohim gave to Him to show His servants what has to take place with speed. Revelation 1:1 (The Scriptures)
“There will no longer be any delay!” …
According to the laws of the calendar the first day of each quarter is also the fourth day of the week on Enoch‘s calendar and each quarter always starts on the fourth day of the week. This happens because this revealed calendar is synchronized with the day of creation when the sun, moon, and stars were set for signs and appointed times. The weekly Sabbath started on the seventh day of the week. That means that the Sabbath would be synced to start on sunset of December 24 and continue until sunset of Thursday, December 25.
The last quarter placed the first weekly Sabbath starting at sunset on Thursday, September 25 and ending on sunset of Friday, September 26.
This will seem hard to comprehend for those who are used to following either the Christian/Roman calendar or the Jewish/Babylonian lunar calendar. The other complicating factor is that the earth is rotating faster now than it did before the flood of Noah’s time. This change of speed is not much and only adds 1.242 “days” or 29.808 hours from solar event to the same solar event one year later. This amounts to 7.452 hours per quarter.
However, the amount of elapsed time in hours, minutes and seconds (or some other unit) from winter solstice to winter solstice is the same now as it was before the flood. Confusion enters when we count days only and neglect solar events.
Forces will begin to shake the planets …
As our solar system moves through the outer edges of our galaxy other forces affect the sun and the planets This movement forms the basis for the Mayan prophecies of 2012 on the Christian/Roman calendar. Our solar system as it travels as a unit through our galaxy is subject to perturbing forces that cause minor changes in planet positions and orbits. Even the sun can be subject to perturbations, but that would require enormous objects.
Gravity is a force that exists throughout the universe. It has been discovered that the gravity that we experience on earth is not a pull coming from the earth, but rather a push that we experience as our planet cuts through the gravitational force present in the universe. Our weight then is not the amount of pull coming from the earth but rather the amount of push exerted upon us as our flying home makes its way through the gravitational force experienced by all bodies in the universe.
The larger the body, then the larger amount of gravitational force is displaced. This is also known as “gravitational radiation.” [GR] If the earth flies through a rogue source of GR, for example, caused by a wandering binary star of sufficient size, then the earth will be perturbed by this “wave” of gravity caused by the speed and mass of the rogue object. This could cause a change (perturbation) in the properties of the earth, such as alterations in rotation speed, changes in the orbit, shifting of polar inclination relative to the sun, stresses on the core and surface of the earth, unheard of changes in tides, debris and gases mixing in our atmosphere, cosmic dust clouds changing the light from the moon, sun and stars, and large fluctuations in atmospheric pressure.
I write about these things because of something is about to start happening — something prophesied long ago by the prophets and the apostles. As we come close to the end of this age events will begin to alter life on the earth. Some of these have already begun as we have experienced in the prior quarter of Enoch‘s year starting with the equinox in September.
Cleaning up the mess …
The nations of the world are still under shock and perplexed by the massive tide of economic and financial woes that have afflicted billions. Most world economists and financial experts struggle to find solutions of sufficient power to restore the flow of cash. On that subject here is a vision that was given to the post-exilic prophet, Zechariah:
I looked up again, and I saw a flying scroll. “What do you see? he [the messenger] asked. And I replied, “A flying scroll, twenty cubits long and ten cubits wide.”
“That,” he explained to me, “is the curse that goes out over the whole earth. For everyone who has stolen, as is forbidden on one side [of the scroll], has gone unpunished; and everyone who has sworn [falsely, or lied], as is forbidden on the other side of it, has gone unpunished. [But] I have sent it (the curse) forth — declares Yahua of Armies — and [the curse] shall enter the house [and/or business] of the thief and the house [and/or business] of the liar, by My Name, and it shall lodge inside their houses [and/or businesses] and consume them to the last timber and stone.” Zechariah 5:1-4 (Nevi’im).
This is happening now, even as I write this post. And it will continue to happen until it “consumes them to the last timber and stone.” Because Yahua will take control of the earth and its nations and peoples, he will start by cleaning up the widespread thievery, deception, and corruption.
The sooner we get on board with that program, the sooner can economic and financial health be restored to the earth and its people.
The Woman in the Pot …
The rest of Zechariah 5 tells about the vision of an ephah measuring pot with a lead cover. The pot holds a woman who was called “wickedness.” Two women messengers (or angels) with wings like those of a stork, came on the “winds of heaven” and picked up the pot with the woman inside and carried it to Babylonia “to build a house” or “shrine” for it, and when the house ready, the measuring pot will be set there in its place.
Obviously, there is a lot of meaning embedded in the vision. The woman in the pot, “Wickedness,” was being set aside and reserved for a time yet to come. However, the context shows that this “setting aside” follows the events mentioned above. Just how much time elapses between these two events (the curse on the thieves and liars, and the reserving “wickedness” to deal with in the future, we don’t know.
But after “Wickedness” is put in the “holding tank” in Babylon (the desert of Iraq), then the vision continues and Zechariah is shown four chariots coming out from two mountains of bronze. In prophecy “mountains” equates with large nations.
But the bronze relates to Daniel’s dream vision of the statue, whose belly and thighs were made of bronze!
This statue was actually seen by Nebuchadnezzar in a dream, and Daniel was given the understanding of the dream. Daniel told the king …
“You looked, O king, and there before you stood a large statue — an enormous, dazzling statue, awesome in appearance. The head of the statue was made of pure gold, its chest and arms of silver, its belly and thighs of bronze, its legs of iron, its feet partly of iron and partly of baked clay.
“While you were watching, a rock was cut out, but not by human hands. It struck the statue on its feet of iron and clay and smashed them. Then the iron, the clay, the bronze, the silver and the gold were broken in pieces at the same time and became like chaff on a threshing floor in the summer. The wind swept them away without leaving a trace. But the rock that struck the statue became a huge mountain and filled the whole earth.”
Nebuchadnezzar was the head of gold. He was the King of Babylon, where the woman in the pot was placed. Daniel told the king,
“You, O king, are the king of kings. The God of Heaven has given you dominion and power and might and esteem; in your hands he has placed mankind and beasts of the field and the birds of the air. Wherever they live, he has made you ruler over them all. You are that head of gold.”
What is often missed in understanding this vision is that this statue of the succession of world government is one entity that started with Babylon and has continued in one form or another ever since. That structure, which made up the religions and government of Babylon, is alive and functioning in today’s religions.
The meaning of the judgement on “Wickedness” vision …
The meaning of this vision is made clear, if we follow the progression of events in the book of Revelation. Chapters 17 and 18 tell about “the punishment of the great prostitute” Some think this is the end time Nations of Israel. However, I don’t think so. Instead this ties directly to Daniel’s dream vision and to the vision given to Zechariah!
Daniel explains that the end time will be the time when the statue’s feet consisting of a mixture of iron and clay will be in control.
“Just as you saw that the feet and toes were partly of baked clay and partly of iron, so this will be a divided kingdom; yet it will have some of the strength of iron in it, even as you saw iron mixed with clay. As the toes were partly iron and partly clay, so this kingdom will be partly strong and partly brittle. And just as you saw the iron mixed with baked clay, so the people will be a mixture and will not remain united, any more than iron mixes with clay.
“In the days of those kings, the God of heaven will set up a kingdom that will never be destroyed, nor will it be left to another people. It will crush all those kingdoms and bring them to an end, but it will itself endure forever.”
Some also thought this might be a resurrected Holy Roman Empire. But again, I don’t agree. The Roman Empire (the legs of iron), included the Holy Roman Empire and the Church that became it, will still be active until it is replaced by
this final “feet and toes of iron mixed with baked clay” kingdom.
The “Triple Vision” of the Mystery Woman …
This is another mystery and “calls for wisdom.”
But there are two visions, not just one.
There is the woman who sits on “many waters” …
“Come, I will show you the punishment of the great prostitute, who sits on many waters. With her the kings of the earth committed adultery and the inhabitants of the earth were intoxicated with the wine of her adulteries.”
And there is another vision of a woman …
Then the angel (messenger) carried me away in the Spirit into a desert. There I saw a woman sitting on a scarlet beast that was covered with blasphemous names and had seven heads and ten horns. The woman was dressed in purple and scarlet, and was glittering with gold, precious stones and pearls. She held a golden cup in her hand, filled with abominable things and the filth of her adulteries. This title was written on her forehead:
MYSTERY
BABYLON THE GREAT
THE MOTHER OF PROSTITUTES
AND OF THE ABOMINATIONS OF THE EARTH.
Notice that this does not provide any exceptions. Babylon is not only the “Mother” of prostitute nations and religions, but also of the mother of “the abominations of the earth!”
Now compare that with Zechariah’s vision:
The vision of Zechariah shows how “Wickedness” is placed back in Babylon to await this end-time judgement. Thus Daniel, Zechariah, and Revelation work together bringing all the pieces into focus.
Because Babylon was the head of gold, Babylon is also the feet of iron and clay. For this reason the visions of Revelation show that the destruction finally comes upon the “statue” of Babylon when it gets the “props” knock out from underneath it.
So we have more than one vision of Babylon the Great, and each gives a different but similar picture of both the kingdoms, rulers, history, and the events of the end time.
There is also an eighth king who is no longer is functioning but will arise in the end. This is called the “beast” and is here thrown in with the rest:
When I saw her, I was greatly astonished. The the angel (messenger) said to me, “Why are you astonished? I will explain to you the mystery of the woman and of the beast she rides, which has seven heads and ten horns.
“The beast, which you saw, once was, now is not, and will come up out of the Abyss and go to his destruction. The inhabitants of the earth whose names have not been written in the book of life from the creation of the world will be astonished when they see the beast, because he once was, now is not, and yet will come.
If we return to the image of the statue something interesting has often been missed. The statue is further divided:
The Head of Gold
The Chest and Arms of Silver
The Belly and Thighs of Bronze
The Legs of Iron
The Feet Partly of Iron and Partly of Clay
There are seven distinct parts of this image. These are the seven heads of Revelation 17.
This calls for a mind with wisdom. The seven heads are seven hills on which the woman sits. They are also seven kings. Five have fallen. one is, the other has not yet come. But when he does come, he must remain for a little while.
Five of them have fallen. In other words, these entities are not functioning in the world. But as noted above, one is still functioning. And one represented by the feet has not yet come.
But then our focus is directed back to the beast on which the woman rides, as the second vision shows. In other words, it appears that this beast has carried the woman down through the centuries, from the time she first appeared on the scene, to the time of the end!
The beast who once was, and now is not, is an eighth king. He belongs to the seven and is going to his destruction.
Bringing all the visions together, we find that in the end time the focus is upon the ten toes and on the beast to whom these ten give their authority! The first view mentioned the feet but not the toes. The vision of Revelation amplifies the feet and we see that the ten toes are ten horns or kings …
The ten horns you saw are ten kings who have not yet received a kingdom, but who for one hour will receive authority as kings along with the beast. They have one purpose and will give their power and authority to the beast.
Daniel received another vision that relates to this …
After that, in my vision at night I looked, and there before me was a fourth beast — terrifying and frightening and very powerful. It had large iron teeth. It crushed and devoured its victims and trampled underfoot whatever was left. It was different from all the former beasts, and it had ten horns.
This describes the structure and organization of the final kingdom. In the prophetic visions recorded by Daniel, Zechariah, and John.
One World Government with One Purpose …
They will make war against the Lamb, but the lamb will overcome them because He is the Lord of lords and King of kings — and with him will be his called, chosen and faithful followers.
Even though their one purpose is to make war against the Lamb, they will not limit themselves to that. Remember as noted above, the woman sits on many waters? Here is what that means …
Then the angel said to me, “The waters you saw, where the prostitute sits, are peoples, multitudes, nations, and languages. The beast and the ten horns you saw will hate the prostitute. They will bring her to ruin and leave her naked. They will eat her flesh and burn her with fire. For God has put it into their hearts to accomplish His purpose by agreeing to give the beast their powers to rule, until God’s words are fulfilled. The woman you saw is the great city [Babylon] that rules over the kings of the earth.”
This helps explain the statement that this final or eighth king is has a kingdom that is different from the seven, but “belongs with” the seven heads, and the final ten kings will “give their power” to this beast. It is because of this eighth king that the final “feet” with is ten toes (horns, kings) will separate from Babylon and “give their authority to the beast.”
One Woman with Great Influence Destroyed …
Even though the woman, in one vision, was sitting upon the beast, in the end the beast will turn and devour her. This means at that time the only world government will be that of the beast. All the other nations, peoples, and languages will become part of one world government.
Revelation 18 is devoted to the destruction of this Babylon that has ruled over the nations from its beginning. The power and authority of that government or empire will be that of the “dragon” who not only leads in the destruction of Babylon, but will also lead the government of the beast and the ten horns to fight against the Lamb.
In other words, the fight that has been going on in the heavens will now come to the earth where it will finally end. It was placed earlier in Revelation because of events that lead up to chapters 17 and 18. That visio
n saw “the dragon and his messengers” hurled to the earth (from Revelation 12) …
And there was war in heaven. Michael and his angels fought against the dragon, and the dragon and his angels fought back. But he was not strong enough, and they lost their place in heaven. The great dragon — that ancient serpent called the devil or Satan (adversary), who leads the whole world astray. He was hurled to the earth and all his angels (messengers) with him.
There was also a vision recorded in Revelation 13, which tells more about this same thing …
And the dragon stood on the shore of the sea. And I saw a beast coming out of the sea. He had ten horns and seven heads, with ten crowns on his horns, and on each head a blasphemous name. The beast I saw resembled a leopard, but had feet like those of a bear and a mouth like that of a lion.
The dragon gave the beast his power and his throne and great authority. One of the heads of the beast seemed to have had a fatal wound, but the fatal wound had been healed. The whole world was astonished and followed the beast. Men worshipped the dragon because he had given the authority to the beast, and they also worshipped the beast and asked, “Who is like the beast? Who can make war against him?”
The beast was given a mouth to utter proud words and blasphemies and to exercise his authority for 42 months. He opened his mouth to blaspheme God and to slander His name and His dwelling place and those who live in heaven. And he was given authority over every tribe, people, language and nation. All inhabitants of the earth will worship the beast — all whose names have not been written in the book of life belonging to the Lamb that was slain from the creation of the world.
We are about to enter into this time of trouble …
But not just yet. So there is still some time to prepare for it. That is why I am tracking the quarters using the calendar that was given to Enoch for our benefit.
We are living now during the time when the thieves and liars will be punished. This is coming upon the whole earth and will continue right on up to the end.
But before the events noted above begin, the earth will experience a series of events that are triggered by disturbing forces coming from some thing or things entering our solar system. These events will continue to break down the nations and the current leadership and lead to disease, famine, war, economic disaster all over the earth. The people will be looking for a savior, but the one who comes will not be what they want. Instead he will turn the people to join with him to fight against the Lamb.
These things will take several years. But the prophecies of Revelation 8 and 9, which are not discussed here, will begin to happen sooner than we think.
Revelation 13 continues with with these words …
He who has an ear, let him hear.
He who brings into captivity shall go into captivity. He who kills with the sword has to be killed with the sword. This calls for patient endurance and trust on the part of the set-apart ones. (The Scriptures)
Stay on the alert and flexible. Be willing to learn the prophecies, and be able to prove them for your self. Although what I have written here covers both a long time from the beginning of Babylon, it also covers a short time of a few years that leads up to the destruction of this current world-wide system. Then the world will fall under a “one-world” government that could lead to the destruction of all life — unless that time is cut short. And that is the promise …
For then will be great distress, unequaled from the beginning of the world until now — and never to be equaled again. If those days had not been cut short, no one would survive, but for the sake of the elect those days will be shortened! Matthew 24.
We are so happy to hear that you are doing so much better. We have truly missed your postings. I have a question for you. We are looking at the Division of the Priests in I Chron. 24. They were divided into 24 orders. We are kind of struggling on how to line this up with Father’s Calendar. Could you please help us out. Thank you so much!!!
Elaine Story
Elaine,
Thank you. I am glad to be back in the writing business. My new office is very efficient, and I look forward to finishing the things that I started.
Regarding the courses. When David first set up the 24 courses for the priests, each course had 15 days. 24 x 15 = 360. At the end of each quarter was an extra day, which was probably assigned to the second course for the months 3,6,9, 12. The courses started their cycle on the first day of the first month of the calendar revealed to Enoch.
The interesting thing about the calendar is that it automatically adjusts to the solar events that start each quarter. Anything extra automatically was absorbed by the intercalary day at the end of each quarter.
Later, when the House of Judah (the southern kingdom) began following the lunar calendar from Babylon, then they had to adjust the courses to fit their new scheme. This finally led the House of Judah into captivity and to the burning of the books and the destruction of Jerusalem and the Temple.
So glad you are doing well. We are gleaning so much from your articles. Thank you for everything that you do for all of us. You are truly a blessing.
Didn’t quite no where to pose this question so, I thought I would do it here in your latest post. Very interesting your writings and teachings. I’m making my way through your articles. My question and please I hope that you do not quickly brush it aside as I see sometimes happens when posed by others in other places on the net. What is your understanding on the idea of those who are called Jews today not being actual descendants of Jacob’s twelve son’s, not being of the twelve tribes, most especially the tribe of Judah? And of the idea that “African” peoples dispersed into captivity to the Western World being apart of the descendants of Jacob’s son’s? That the “true” Hebrew people that God made is covenant with where black people? Having read about this on the net in many places now, I have learned that it is very controversial topic. I’m not posing this question Dr. Sakach for controversy. I am learning and seeking understanding, truth. I came across a site that seems less inflammatory for lack of a better word than most. It is an interesting site. I wonder do you have any rebuttal or support for my question and for some of the things posed on that site? http://www.hebrewisraelites.org/
Again, I am not seeking controversey, just understanding and the truth and just wondering what your thoughts are or understanding.
Thank you very much for anytime you can devote to a reply.

I examined the web site you mentioned and I found their conclusions to be careless and unfounded. The problems is that we think that all the answers are in the Bible or Hebrew Scriptures (The 22 books also called the “Old Testament.”)
Understanding the Scripture record requires wisdom, flexibility and an understanding of science. For example, there are some who believe that Adam and Eve were “white” and the rest of the people came from monkeys! These people will also tell that the “Jews” are not the true Jews. This, of course, reeks of bias and willful ignorance.
The word “Jew” is a product of the translators and their own bias. The Hebrew is understood to mean “people of Judah,” that is, either of the land called Judea, the descendants of Judah son of Jacob, or citizens of the House of Judah also known as the Southern Kingdom.
The Hebrew word contains the three letters yah, he and vav, and show a connection with Yahua (yah, he, vav, he). And instead of translating the word for “people of Judah” as “Jew” or “Jewish” the word is pronounced “ee,ah,oo,dee” or “Yhudi.” This means “Yahua is praised.”
Concerning race and skin color I also find that web site to be ignorant of the truth and have adopted ideas to suit their own bias.
In the Book of Enoch, Enoch recorded the vision concerning the entire span of human history from the time of Adam to the time of the new heavens and the new earth. In this vision, he saw the Adam as a “white bull,” He saw Noah as a “man” and his sons, Shem as “a white bull, Ham as “a black bull,” and Japheth as “a red bull.”" Because the bull in this vision is a symbol of a righteous person, then all of Noah’s sons were righteous men. The color then refers to their appearance. This means that Noah’s son Shem was “white”, Ham was “black”, and Japheth was “red.” That means that different races came through Noah!
But that could also mean that people of other appearances, say of a different color of skin, could also have come from each of the three sons. This means that black people could have come from Shem’s seed and from Japheth’s, and white people could have come from Ham’s seed, and so on. The gene pool was still very rich after 1,500 years and for some time after the flood until the “world was divided” during the time of Peleg.
However, in Enoch’s vision, the line of Shem that resulted in the People of Israel came from a line of “white bulls” (Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob) but the people of Israel were seen as “sheep!” But Shem also had other offspring that settled in India who were not descendents of Abraham, etc.
As noted, during the days of Peleg, the races separated based on familial lines, which is covered in more detail in the “Book of Jubilees.”
Now concerning the people of Israel, the argument that they were called “Egyptians” based on skin color is ludicrous. Israel allowed “strangers” to live among them. And even when they left Egypt others not of Jacob came with them. Anyone who lived and worked in Egypt was an Egyptian and the appearance was not on the basis of race as much as it was on style and fashion!
In the United States, Europe, and other nations that were predominately “white,” live people with a different physical appearance who are still considered as “Americans” or “Europeans” again on the basis of style and fashion.
Today, as they have for thousands of years, the “people of Judea,” follow Western and not Arab styles.
Even during the time of the Romans, the people of the Judea wore Roman tunics and other garments, and shoes typical of the Roman Empire. Whereas, the Bedouin and others of Arab descent wore much the same type of clothes then as they do today — the same head coverings, robes, and loose fitting garments that hide body shape and known for ages as part of their culture, even before Muhammadanism. But even today many of the Arabs in the State of Israel also wear western style clothes.
Then another identifying mark of national identity is language. If Moses grew up in Pharoah’s court, what language did he speak? Obviously, Egyptian. However, that would not prevent him from learning Hebrew or any other language that was commonly spoken. To say that Moses was identified as Egyptian because he was “black” is unfounded and biased. He dressed like an Egyptian. He spoke fluent Egyptian. He walked like an Egyptian. He knew the highest ranking leaders. Anyone who saw him would conclude that Moses was an Egyptian.
The illustrations that we see of Joseph and Moses are mainly fiction. They tend to make Joseph and Moses and the Israelites look more like the stereotype Middle Eastern (Arabs), rather than citizens and leaders of countries in which they lived and worked.
We need to understand and not let our minds be deceived by following stereotypes and bias. When I went to Israel, some of the people exclaimed when they saw Bedouin tents and people, “Look there! Just like in Bible times!” I turned them and said, “The Bedouin have lived that way for thousands of years. But when we get to Jerusalem, you will see that the people of Judah look and dress just like we do.” We have a stereotyped image that the “Jews,” in the past. dressed like Arabs. Perhaps, they did for a while, when they were in captivity in Babylonia!
Finally …
The promises made to Judah and to David include the promise of identity. The House of Israel, the northern kingdom consisting of ten tribes, lost their identity. They became known as the “lost tribes of the House of Israel.” But they people of the House of Judah, the descendants of Judah, Benjamin and King David, never lost their heritage and identity.
For more on this, click here.
Shortly, recognition of the nations of Israel, including both Judah and the “lost ten tribes” will be made clear to the descendants of Jacob. This knowledge will sweep those nations like a wild fire and will cause great confusion among some, and give great hope to millions.
Now that things are getting back to a normal pace around here I wanted to further reply. Not only animals, but color also is used to describe character traits rather than necessarily actual skin color no? For instance, white = righteousness, black = sin, red = blood, i.e martyrdom or murderous. Reading it, it seems to me that bull represents patriarchs or the first in a lineage and rams & sheep represent descendants. Sheep particularly in some instances representing Jacob’s twelve sons. The fallen angels are even referred to as bulls. I don’t get from reading those passages that Enoch was symbolizing actual skin color or racial identity.
The information on that web site may or may not be correct, but I wanted to comment on the idea that the color of the bulls represents actual skin color, i.e racial identity. I’m not thinking that is the case in that vision.
Rona
Oh yes, please if you can provide scripture showing were it does indeed imply racial identity please share as I am learning. Thank you.
From what I see we can avoid limiting our understanding to either “race” or “character.” There is more than one meaning to the symbols used in this vision. The “bull” means something, and the color something else. Then the other animals and birds mean something, too. Although the vision doesn’t explicitly mention anything about “race,” that can certainly be implied in retrospect, can it not? However, that does not mean that differences between races has anything to do with righteousness. The “bull” does indicate righteousness, regardless of color. Abel was a red bull and he was considered righteous.
There are several things that are directly related to this vision:
There is one part of this that is misunderstood and misapplied. Because the world is divided by racial lines, “race” becomes the issue in the minds of most people. However, if we go back to our origins we are, everyone, descended from a line of righteous fathers! Seth is our father. Enoch is our father, along with Methuselah, and Noah. There are no descendants of Cain in the world today, although some would like to think so. There is no “seed” of Cain, because the line from Adam through Noah was “perfect.”
There is implied in the history of humankind, a “culling” out. The first was the removal of the line of Cain. Cain and his offspring proved by their actions that they were imperfect and they brought a curse upon the earth.
Whereas after Seth was born and had a son Enosh “at that time men began to call on the Name of Yahua.” Also it was written of Seth that he was born after Adam’s likeness and after his image. This makes one wonder what the other offspring of Adam looked like. I wrote in another place that scientists discovered that Neanderthals could talk and communicate just like other “humans” and that their bones were discovered alongside other “humans.” The flood culled out the human “race” down to the line of Seth and his son Enosh through Noah!
But that was not all. There was another high purpose for a part of the human race that promised a blessing for all. This required the selection and creation of a nation of people whose ultimate purpose was to benefit all the rest. This also involved the spiritual separation of these people from the rest and the securing of their destiny with promises.
This included dividing of the land according to family lines. This is explained in more detail in the Book of Jubilees. The land was divided by lots first between the three sons of Noah: Shem, Ham, and Japheth. Then it was further divided by lot among their offspring. This was confirmed by an oath, in which they agreed to respect the outcome of the lots. The oath contained a curse upon any who would violate the oath and take lands from others. Canaan, Ham’s son, was the first to violate the oath, and Shem’s land became known as “Canaan’s Land.” Later, the Philistines, who descended from another one of Ham’s sons also took part of Shem’s land and it became know as Palestine. Both the Russians and Iranians still refer to the Palestinians as “Philistines.” Because of the curse that was agreed to by their fathers, we have trouble in that land today.
It is interesting that Arabs or those aligned with Arab interests and religion come from all three of the sons of Noah: for example, Ishmael from Abraham, the Philistines from Ham, and the Iranians from Japheth. This means that of these three only the descendants of Ishmael can rightly consider themselves to be Semitic. And there are some who say they are Semitic, but are not!
The big question remains: Who are the people of the United States, UK, and the nations of Europe, Australia, New Zealand, and South Africa! Where did these people come from and why are they aligned with Israel and considered as enemies of the Islamic states?
Noah was indeed perfect but what about his wife, or better yet, the wives of his sons? My observation is that Sarai was one of the few women worth mentioning, and since Ishmael was not chosen, although he was from Abraham, the mother was as important as the father in producing a worth line.
The focus of Noah’s perfection, a righteous man, was his lineage from Adam through Seth and including Enoch, Noah’s great-grandfather. What is true about Noah is also true about his sons and their wives. The preservation of the line of Seth included the both men and women. Before the flood the blood lines were getting very mixed up, and it was Enoch’s prayer before he was married and fathered children that preserved Noah, his wife, his sons and their wives.
And certainly Sarah, wife of Abraham, and Rebekah, wife of Isaac, have been honored throughout Scripture. The Scriptures have no problem with women, but the church has a bad history when it comes to honoring the role of women in the world. As the Feast of Firstfruits shows symbolically in the Wave Loaves offering, women have an equal part with men. The two Wave Loaves are made from the same dough and baked together, and offered on equal terms. They come from the HOUSEHOLD and represent both the fathers (men) and the mothers (women) without distinction of one over the other.
Very interesting. You’ve given me somethings to learn more about and refresh my memory on as well. Thank you so much Dr. Sakach for your time. I am sure I will have more questions for you as I study and learn . My husband is even listening to me read your articles. We are both learning. That is very interesting about the Neanderthals, very interesting.

Thank you for sharing all that you have been given. I have read your book Prophecy Unsealed, it was very interesting and has helped me to understand these prophecies..
I am very interested in learning more about the Revealed Calendar. Where does one go to find out when the 2009 spring equinox be? And does the equinox happen at same time and day all around the world, where do we find this information?
I would also like to know if you could put the Enoch Calendar with the Christian/Roman calendar dates with it on your website so people like myself can see just where we are at on both Calendars at this time, I would like to make sure that when making the Calendar myself that I have correctly placed the dates so that I do not keep incorrect Shabbat’s and Feast days.
May YAH Bless You,
Shalom

Sofer,
I will continue to make the quarterly updates, but I am also doing more. I am going to be publishing two items: (1) the book of Enoch titled “Enoch: The Book Behind The Bible.” (I just received an email from the printer who told me that my proof copy will be sent to me tomorrow.) and (2) The 2009 to 2010 Calendar based on the revelation given to Enoch. This shows how Enoch’s calendar relates to the current secular calendar (Christian/Roman). This will include an online video that shows how the calendar automatically adjusts to the flood-caused increase in earth’s rotation speed. It shows the Sabbaths, Feasts and High Days as they were meant to happen on what the prophets called “clean days.”
Keep an eye on blog entries and on Messages! for announcements on this and other subjects.
Shalom
Dear Dr. Sakach, I am a brand new subscriber to your website, because I just ordered and read your book on Enoch, the Book Behind The Bible. I confess that I am a real novice, and don’t knopw enough yet to ask questions! I have tho, been a student of the scriptures for many years. I just haven’t been under the instruction of someone like you! I just wanted to tell you that I read your book practically in one sitting, and could only put it down to go to sleep. I awoke early to continue reading. I found myself literally holding my breath over some passages, as it seemed that the universe was opened up to me. I was enthralled with the life of Enoch, and his wonderful relationship with our Creator. I long for the day when I will behold our God and King, just as he did. (i’m 74, so that may not be so far off!) In my minds eye, I could envision the universe that he described, along with the angelic messengers. I literally felt swept along on the winds, and felt the rays of the sun as it shone through the various gates. I just wanted to share with you how grateful I am to have these things opene up to me in a way I can understand, and I look forward to your other teachings. Thank you, and Blessings on you, Betty
Betty,
I am so glad to hear about your experiences. Really, the good news starts with Enoch and even he was excited by what he learned. He exclaimed something like, “And there I long to dwell,” speaking about the new world that will come in the Eighth “Week” or age. I have been reading Enoch for almost 30 years now, and every time I read it, something I had not seen before surprises me. But most important to me was the affect it had on the rest of the Scriptures. It truly is “the Book Behind the Bible.”
Dear Mr Sakach!
How do we know when spring equinox is 2010 and when sabbath will be?
Can we use NASA s calendar? According to my understanding sabbath will be on wednesday s 2010???
Thank you!
Normally, the equinox would be very close to the evening that would start the first day of the calendar. Also it would be based on Jerusalem time as opposed to scientific time. Sometimes it happens before and sometimes a little after. I think that possibly it would have been after observation of the equinox using the great pyramid of Egypt. When the equinox happens the pyramid’s east or west face at sunrise or sunset would be totally lit up with the north and south faces in shadow. Both the north and south faces are concave with about a 3 plus foot depth in the center and the face slope from each corner to that center point. This slight depression on the north and south sides is enough to cause them to be in shadow during the equinoxes.
I will be checking on the time of the spring equinox and convert that to Jerusalem time. Remember the earth has suffered some severed trauma during the time of the flood, so until the earth’s properties are restored we are doing the best we can under these conditions. Also see this comment with more information about the Sabbath and world conditions.
Hi again!
I understand that you will return with an answer so that we will know which day will be the sabbath day after spring equinox?
Thank you
But in fact if you were not here for us to ask , we would need to know how to find out ourselves when the sabbath will be each new year.
The question is how to do this?
Thanks again!!
I can tell you what I have to do, and that might help you do the same. But I have to keep in mind that I am doing this to provide information to those who want to know as well as for those who should know (the rulers and leaders of the nations). Whether these last people hear or not doesn’t matter. They have been given the job from the higher Power, and they can find the help they need, if they desire.
The Sabbath will in fact be restored, but not by me. It is ultimately the task of the Creator of the Sabbath to restore the knowledge to the world, and He will instruct the right-doers who will rule the nations in the next age.
Here is what I have to do.
First, I need to examine the scientific calculations which only points to the time when the earth’s axis is perpendicular to a line from the equator to the sun. That is the scientific definition of the equinox. Without that information we can only tell by observation using a device that physically tracks the evening sunset and morning sunrise shadows caused by poles that align along a true east to west line. At the equinox the shadows of one pole will cover the opposite pole. Because of this method of observation we can actually watch as the equinox approaches and when it is over. This is what would be done on the time prior to the start of a new year.
In this time we have an extra 1.242 days in each solar year. That means that we have an extra day that we must allow to pass during time which we would see this approach to the equinox begin to take place after the 363 days have passed. So sometime between the start of last day of the year (#364) and the first day of the next year, the 365th day is allowed to pass and is not counted even as a day of the week. Day 364 is always the 3rd day of the week (not Tuesday). And day 1 is always the 4th day of the week. And the extra day time between the 3rd day and the 4th day of the week is only because of the flood and because of wickedness that brought about the flood and “the first end” and accompanying changes to the earth and to the life span of its living.
Because we also now have an elliptical orbit around the sun, the current time between quarters is no longer 91 days on the solar calendar. So we are forced to start the year on the first quarter with the spring equinox and then begin counting days to mark of the 91 day quarters to day 364 — the end of the year. The reason we can do this is because the first day of the year started on the 4th day of the “Creation week.” Then the fifth day and sixth day followed and we come to the seventh which is the Sabbath.
Once we know the scientific time of the equinox we can convert that to Jerusalem time. This will tell us at what time in Jerusalem the equinox will happen. With that information we can determine which evening is closet to the equinox, the next or the prior. Which ever is the closest evening to the actual event would be the one when we would see the shadow of the West pole cover the east pole — the definition of the equinox by observation. Today we can only rely on scientific calculations. In the next age, observation either at Jerusalem or in Egypt would be used. I can not even guess which at this time. The earth’s rotation speed and orbit need to be restored and possibly so would its inclination!
Anyhow that is what I have to do.
Good Afternoon Dr. Sakach! I’ve come across something that I would like for you to look at. I would appreciate your input. This is something that I think deep down I’ve known, but just didn’t want to verbalize it. I don’t agree with everything in this article and I believe it can be taken much deeper, but one thing in particular has caught my attention……..”The true Messiah is the Lamb of Yahua who “takes away the sin of the world,” while the antichrist claims to be the ‘Lamb of God,” but “preserves’ the sins of the world while claiming to pay the penalty so the world can continue in its sin and still go to heaven!”
Please take a look and let me know your thoughts. Thank you so much. Elaine Story

I did download a copy of his book and found it very interesting. Many of the subjects about which he wrote, so also did I in my books and in this blog. However, I do agree with you that it can be much deeper and that is why I wrote about the Enoch Project. In that I see how the deception that emerges out of the church is so powerful and devious that it could deceive the very elect, if that were possible. This assessment by itself would be considered blasphemous and a heresy by churchianity and its millions of followers.
I have not finished his book, but I did notice a couple of things that the author missed. His assumptions are based upon the New Testament first and from which he judges all other Scripture. This is a major fault not just of this writer but of all Christian writers. For them there is only a “token” Law, which has no force upon either prophecy or understanding in general. However, the Torah (or “Instructions”) carry a huge amount of prophetic material that should be understood before anyone reads the writings of the prophets and apostles.
John (Yohannon) did not saw antichrist coming during his day.
And this in I John:
Based on this insight where is the world today? Who gave the Torah (Instructions) to all the tribes of Israel and by proxy to the whole world? Whose Spirit spoke through the prophets and apostles? Who did Enoch see before the Ancient of Days and the Lord of Spirits when the Son of Man received His Name? Who is the One who is not and was not worshiped except by only a few? Who did Abraham, Isaac, Jacob and Moses and Elijah know personally and face-to-face? Obviously, it was Yahua — made the FIRST Son of EL before the world was created!
Now we have an “Enoch Project” which makes as its primary claim that New Age people (mostly influenced by dead people) will be twisting the minds of the world into thinking they are the Messiah that will usher in the “New world.” That is a straw man and a set up, if I ever saw one. If one swallows the whole hog, then only drastic measures can rescue.
But that is mild and obviously too simple for the average person. It is pretty easy to attack the teachings of dead men and women, particularly, if one has never read anything they wrote (in the 1800s).
The teachings of the antichrist formed the basis and core of the apostasy that started before the end of the first century AD and continued to this day. Millions of people around the world put their hope and rest their salvation on the teachings of the Anti-Messiah. Very few people will admit that EL is the Father and His ONLY and FIRST-BORN is Yahua who came in the flesh to settle a covenant that He made with Abraham and the hardhearted and stubborn offspring of Jacob.
When understood it becomes obvious and logical that John was writing about the teachings of a Pharisee and self-appointed apostle named Paul Saulus. And of course millions will find this so hard to believe that they will clap their hands over their ears and run around screaming.
John also coined the term “Nikolaites” to contain in two Greek words what actually happened in the first century AD — a system of religious tyranny (nikos) was created by one whose purpose was to destroy the true Messiah and His esteemed Apostles and impose that system upon the people (Laity) of the world.
Yahua, once again, hid Himself from those who neither know or understand Him!
But it is time to wake up! Cleanse the soiled garments. Seek Yahua while He may be found. And call out to EL for the wisdom that He is so willing to give to everyone who walks the earth!
Thank you so very much. You basically said everything that I was feeling and thinking. In the next week or two I’m planning on taking Enoch and Torah and going deeper with this thing. The writer is definitely heading in the right direction, but there is so much that he either does not know or has not researched. I’m sure I will be emailing you for your input. Thanks again for your obedience to our Father and for speaking truth in wisdom and understanding. Todah!!!!!
Peace be with you brother!
In an above paragraph about the 8th King and his kingdom being different, but of the other 7. Is this referring to the nation of Israel in the middle east as the 8th kingdom and the 10 kings of America who will preside after the last king from the prostitute, i.e; JFK being the last Catholic President? Are we possibly looking for 2 more Presidents to fufill this portion of the revelation and time frame?
Actually, it is referring to the beast of Daniel. We currently still live under the Roman (two legs of iron). But the Beast will receive the “wound as unto death.” As a result all of Western civilization along with its “Holy Roman Empire” religions will come to an end. But the people that are left of these nations are still under promises that Yahua made to their fathers. And He will make Himself known to them as He prophesied to Ezekiel. The battle will be pitched between the Sons of Righteousness (the offspring of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob), and the Sons of Darkness.
The 10 kings are the ten toes of Daniels beast and will be led by the two feet Iran (Medes and Persian). They will impose their ways upon the world and change the Roman mark of the beast to their own mark, which will come out of their Islamic culture. This mark appears to be linked to calendars and holidays from the beast. We who follow the Roman calendar are marked by the Roman part of the Beast. The Jews follow the Babylonian calendar even keeping the Babylonian names of the months. The Islamic religion has its own mark from its calendar and special days, which they intend to impose on the world.
But there is one calendar that was revealed to our father Enoch that is easy to follow and on which the Feasts, High Days, and Sabbaths are intended to be placed. By living by this calendar and High days we receive the Mark of the Father MAN (EL) and the Son of MAN (Yahua) who took from the essence and power of EL and created all that exists in heaven and on earth.
The other “7″ refers to Babylon, the Seleucid Empire (4), Greece and Rome. The 8th is the Medes and Persian who was one of the members of the Seleucid Empire and “of the seven.”
But at the end these will become the leader (two feet) mixed with iron and clay. The 10 kings (the 10 toes) from the middle east never received a kingdom like the seven. These will join with Iran (Medes and Persians) and receive their power through them. This is the final blast from the Beast. Yahua will join with the remaining Sons of Righteousness and crush the two feet and 10 toes and the beast will come to an end. (Zechariah 14).
It is important to know that Enoch, Daniel, Ezekiel, and Zechariah must be included in any study of the revelations and prophecies given to John by Yahua. The future of the United States, Canada, Western Europe (House of Israel), and Judah (House of Judah) is detailed in the prophecies given by Yahua to Ezekiel. There is a very strong parallel between Ezekiel and the book of Revelation.
We could be looking at our last President. No one in the present administration or congress is giving consideration to natural disasters of all sorts including gases, dust, rocks, and fire from outer space (Rev 8 and 9) along with gravitational perturbations that could shake the earth and completely destroy the current infrastructures. Then it will be like shooting fish in a barrel for the radicals from around the world and within the nations to kill millions of people. Then the eighth emanation of the Beast will take over.
When that 8th emanation takes over is that the beginning of the 3.5 years that will be cut short?
It will happens after the first woe or the fifth trumpet. Then come two more woes (6th and 7th trumpets. So the first woe is what resets the world’s system. And then that gets replaced by the final part of the beast. The two witnesses start their prophecies which continue for 1260 days. Then the beast kills them in Jerusalem. Then after they are resurrected and ascend to heaven this infuriates the ruler of the beast and the false prophet who stirs up the armies of the beast to wage war against the set-apart ones. He intends to wipe them off the face of the earth. This has to start the last three and one half year period. That also starts the countdown to the 1335th day and to the end of the age.
To start the 1335 day countdown, the last three and half years must start on the Feast of Trumpets. So from that day + 1260 days + plus 75 days equals 1335 days and that takes us to the 15th day of the Third Month, which is the Feast of Weeks/Feast of Firstfruits. The cutting short prophecy includes the word “time” — a reference to a year. So that “time” will be cut short, appears to be a reference to the last year of the age. That makes sense. The battle is won before the next age begins, and perhaps, before the resurrection takes place. Zechariah 14 prophesies that Yahua will return and fight in the battle of Jerusalem, and the Jews will fight with Him. This is one Scripture that shows how the time will be “cut short.” The resurrection is not mentioned in Zechariah 14, but it is in Ezekiel and in Daniel and in Enoch. But it does not appear to be directly connected with the battle that cuts short the time. That would indicate that the resurrection could happen on the first day of the first month of the first year of the next age.
We don’t know that time of Yahua’s return. It could be any time during the last year of the this age.
The two witnesses start their work at the beginning of the year (Enoch’s calendar) after the earth-shaking devastation of the first five trumpets. Their time ends on the Feast of Trumpets three and a half years later. The beast apparently grows to power during the time of the two witnesses. Then the beast kills them as noted, and the great tribulation begins at that time. This is a little ironic because a lot of trouble and tribulation has already come on the people. But the leader of the beast is hell-bent on carrying out the threats he made to destroy the Sons of Righteousness. It is interesting in the prophecy of Daniel, the beast is both and empire and its ruler. “You are that head of Gold” is a reference to both Babylon and its leader at that time, Nebuchadnezzar. So in Revelation the final emanation of the beast is both an empire and its leader, who also has a false prophet working with him. Sounds familiar, does it not?
If this is the way it will happen, then the answer to your question is “yes.”
You aren’t currently planning a trip any where in the middle east are you?
I have been there once and would like to go there again. But I have nothing planned at this time. Israel really felt like home to me. Why do you ask, do you want to go there, too?
I hope to make myself available to go where Yashua needs me to be! The tribulation to come seems to need Yashua’s people everywhere. My thought on your particular journey was that of a possible witness in Jerusalem. Not a prophecy, just a possibility with your level of insight and connection to the truth. Peace be with you brother Tim!
Thank you for your thoughts. But I really have no insight about that subject at this time. There is one thing that happened today. My responsibilities to the company I work for went global. So suddenly the focus of my future changed. And that could require that I travel to many new places in the world. Travel has always seemed to turn into some kind of spiritual situation for me. Peace be with you also, Brother Aaron.
Remember that the Messengers of Elohim will go before us, and Yahua will guard our back, if we guard His Word and follow His instructions.
Thank you for your words of wisdom Brother Tim and congradulations on your new direction with the company you are currently employed by. I received the books I ordered Thursday and have finished both! I am filled with questions and you provided many answers and I thank you. Thank you for your service to the blind and thirsty. Peace be with you.
Then I must write more books, posts, comments, and letters.
Thank you, and if you have questions, feel free to ask them. I am very busy answering questions in the comments section. But these tell me what is in the hearts and minds of the readers. This is the kind of information that will provide direction and insight into my next books and other writings.
The number of people who are coming out of darkness is increasing every day. The more who know and understand Yahua, and His instructions provides Him with a reason to turn His face toward His people and to listen to and answer their cries.
Good mornig Brother Tim!
How do I explain the appearence and disappearence of dinosaurs?
Regarding dinosaurs. The descriptions that many scientists rely on for proof has been believed by many as fact. But one brief news article buried deep in one of the science magazines, I will never forget. Sometime in either the late 70s or early 80s a convention of scientists was held in Chicago. During the meeting some paleontologists and geologists submitted papers that made the confession that the evidence in stone could not offer any support to the theories of macro-evolution — that is, the change of one species into a different one. However, there was and is today evidence of micro-evolution, which is the varieties within species. The said all they saw in the layers was a time of different types of living non-human entities that thrived for a while then they died out and were replaced by another round of different living things. They said that what the evidence told them were time of stasis and then an end followed by another time of stasis with different creatures. This was not well received by biologists and zoologist who then proceeded to accuse the paleontologists and geologists of monotheism. This article was either in Scientific American or the publication from the American Academy of Science. I don’t remember which.
Along this line there are some lessons that we can learn from Genesis 1. Nothing is said about dinosaurs. Also a “day” is an indefinite period of time. Here is why. There is a steady path of creation that follows a necessary sequence of events. The earth was uninhabitable and apparently without atmosphere. Then something happened that caused the waters to separate so that an atmosphere of sorts appeared that was captured between water above and water on the earth. That atmosphere may have contained gases like carbon monoxide or dioxide (volcanoes, etc) or hydrogen, nitrogen and some oxygen. Then dry land rose up and the waters on the earth separated. Then plant life sprung up and the earth was covered with plants and grass and seed in an ideal growing environment. This produced much oxygen and restored balance back into the atmosphere. It also produced methane gas and more nitrogen from decaying plant life, and possibly the working of bacteria. The earth also may have had an erratic orbit around the sun and needed to be shoved into a circular orbit and put in sync with the sun, moon, and stars. After this fish and sea creatures, birds and other winged creatures, and every living creature that moved, and insects entered the earth.
The timing of this is interesting. The plants healed the earth, and creatures like fish and birds were created. This is like taking a canary into a mine to warn of the presence of poisonous gases. If these creatures of air, land, and water became sick and died, then the earth would not have been ready for mammals and humans. There is no evidence that tells how long this process took or even if it was a success from the “get go.” We are led to believe that the process was a success regardless of whether or not the result included a filtering out of the gene pool. That culling process prevented undesirable creatures who were wiped out by the process. After this became stable, mammals, livestock, living creatures (of what kind?), creeping creatures, and beasts.
Durring this time culling out of unwanted creatures from all kinds continued, and still does today. And finally the earth was ready for its most important creature — humans.
During this long process leading up to human kind many events could have taken place that could allow the time for the growth and diversification according to the potential in the gene pool of all of these forms of life. Even human kind went through this process until a righteous line was identified and allowed to survive the devastation of the earth from external forces that caused the flood. And even afterward, there was some genetic control that created the children of Jacob and separated them for a purpose to help the rest of human kind.
Believe it or not, the command to destroy the tribes who took over the Promised land, was a culling out of some of the offspring of Ham who violated the agreement to not take over land belonging to others. Each son and grandson of Noah at that time received a portion of the earth by the drawing of lots. This agreement they confirmed by an oath!
So all during this time of creation dinosaur bones, carbon deposits, gas, fossils fuels could have been produced and stored in the earth. Even the flood could have laid down layers of silt and mud burying all kinds of plant and animal remains.
Willard Libby, in his acceptance speech for the Noble prize, warned the scientists that their dates were guesses. And he also warned that radiocarbon dating could only cover a few thousand years and anything after that was also a guess. But consider this: The length of human life before the flood was the result of the waters above and the ideal conditions on the earth. The waters above provided an impenetrable barrier against the bombardment of gamma rays in the upper troposphere. This prevented the creation of radio carbon. Little or no radiocarbon entered the DNA allowed organ, bones, and tissue to repair and duplicate without mutations. Radiocarbon in the DNA causes it to breakdown rapidly causing inaccurate replacement of cells in living creatures. This lead to rapid aging. So quickly did life become short that Shem outlived Abraham by 25 years! This decline continued until the time of Moses when longer than three score and 10 days was considered a blessing. Even now physicians agree that the human body can live for 120 years, if the condition was right. But conditions have continued to progress downward and lifespan is very short around the earth — except in a few places.
Radiocarbon dates of times before the flood are mainly guesses as little radiocarbon existed in the world at that time.
OK, this has turned into a longer answer than I expected, but I hope you can see that there is room in Genesis 1 for all kinds of life, good, bad, and ugly.
Excellent response. I agree completely and have used the same explanation, but I run into a road block with the chronological backtrack and time frame leading back to Adam as the first man. Is there an actual time frame revealed stating how far back in human history Adam and Eve go in time? Is it 6,500, 8,000 or 20,000 years ago according to scripture?
The closest time line is the one created by the Jews. There is a well documented time line in Genesis from Adam to Jacob. But it gets lost when Jacob’s sons went to Egypt. It picks up after the exodus and continues until the exile into Babylon. Then it gets lost again. My guess is the total error is a little more than 200 lost years. That means 6000 years may conclude before 2020. The time of human existence is much easier to find than time required for the process of creation leading up to humans. If One can be resurrected and given a new body, then creating a human can’t be that much more difficult or easy depending on Who is doing the work.
One other factor is that the line from Adam to Jacob is a line of righteous fathers from whom all people today have come. The offspring of Cain is not listed with the relative time of birth and death.
Here is one more thing to consider. If the time of the first six days of creation is given as 1000 years/day, this pushes the start back to somewhere around 10,000 BC. This is an interesting time because it is estimated that about this time the “last glacial maximum” came to an end.
Along this line see this article in Wikepedia: Late Glacial Maximum The migration of the people mentioned could have been as recent as 1500 years before the flood or even sooner.
A lot can happen in a few 1000-year periods.
Dr. Sakach, You posted two articles about Earthquakes in divers places – part 1&2, which I can no longer find on your website. Just wondering if you took them off or is something going on with your blog. I check daily for messages and comments, but there has been nothing for the past four or five days. I know that you are very busy with the calendar, so just overlook my anxiousness. I’ve recently been looking a little deeper into the ‘Son of Man’ that you talked about. As a homeschooling mother of teenagers, I have to research a lot of things. This week my 15y.o. and I have been looking at the etymology of different words. One in particular is manna. When we broke it down, it actually means ‘of Father’. Didn’t know if you had seen that or not, so I thought I would share it with you. It really encouraged me and brought a new understanding to my daughter. Thanks again for everything.
Regarding the earthquake posts. I pulled them off because I needed more time to research them. The problem is that the graphs, though accurately reflecting the data provided by the USGS, do not tell the whole story. I feel that there might be an increase in the frequency of the earthquakes. However, the data from USGS is not complete because it does not show the increase in number of seismometers that has happened in the past several years. So the apparent increase shown in the graph needs to be normalized against the increase of earthquakes sensors.
The Calendar is coming along, but I am having a battle with myself about whether or not to purchase a binding machine. I could staple like I did the prior year, but this one needs to last longer and double-loop wire binding will protect this calendar for the years ahead. Also what I am writing in shocking to me.
I hadn’t seen that about manna, I’ll check into that. On the humorous side, I have a talking cat. Really! I taught how to say “Good morning,” “rain,” “wind,” “smart,” “bang,” and he comes up with his own surprises like “nagging,” and “no I am not,” and singing in pitch with my wife’s voice students. He is particularly annoyed when they sing off pitch and will show them how it is supposed to be sung. Anyway, I also taught him that his food is “manna.” He shortened that down to “man” and tries to “nag” me into giving him his food. His brother also talks, but not as many words. But when you ask him “What are you doing?” or “What was that?” or “Where are you going?” he like the child he is replies, “I don’t know.”
Peace be with you brother Tim! Will the new calendar be available on line as well as hardcopy?
I may make something available, but it won’t be the whole thing. I hope to have it ready in a few days. I have been writing the extra material for the past week. Should be very enlightening for those who understand and have insight.
