FINAL WARNING: Setting the Stage for Destruction
909,310.50 days divided by 360 days of the Jewish calendar is 2525.86
years, or the year 1990. But then, the latter date of 516 BC, would give
us the year 2010.The Bible also says that the events of the end times would not take
place until all of the Jews returned to their homeland, and this return is
referred to in: Isa. 5:26, Isa. 11:11-12, Isa. 43:5-6, Jer. 16:15, Jer. 30:3,
Eze. 34:11-13, Eze. 36:24, and Zech. 10:8. This return of God’s chosen
people, only refers to pure, full-blooded Jews (Gen. 6:1-4, Ezra 10:2-18,
Neh. 13:27, Jude 1:7). In 1800, Palestine had a population of 150 Jews;
1827- 1,500 Jews; 1850- 8,000; 1910- 41,000; 1914- 100,000; 1930-
170,000; 1935- 300,000; 1939- 450,000; 1948- 650,000; 1953- 1,300,000;
1962- 2,000,000; and 1970- 2,500,000. Now there are nearly five million
Jews in Israel which have been gathered up from over 102 different
nations.A gentleman by the name of Joe Marler had proposed a theory based
on Daniel 9:25-26 which says: “Know therefore and understand, that
from the going forth of the commandment to restore and build
Jerusalem unto the Messiah the Prince shall be seven weeks, and
three score and two weeks: the street shall be built again, and the wall,
even in troublous times. And after threescore and two weeks shall
Messiah be cut off...” The Hebrew word for “week” is ‘shabula’ which
means ‘seven,’ indicating that a ‘week’ is actually 7 ‘weeks’ of years, or
49 years, which is known as the Jubilee cycle (Lev. 25:8).The 62 weeks began when the city of Jerusalem, and its Temple, which
was destroyed in 586 BC, was rebuilt. Three such decrees were given.
The first came during the first year of the reign of Cyrus (King of
Persia, 536-527 BC), who ruled for nine years; after which his son
Cambyses (527-520 BC) took over, and all the work on the Temple was
stopped for seven years. The second decree was made by Darius I, in
the second year of his 35-year reign (520-485 BC). Construction
resumed on the Temple in 520 under Zerubbabel, the Persian
governor, and was completed between 516-514 BC. Then Xerxes
reigned 21 years (485-464 BC). Artaxerxes ruled 40 years (464-424 BC),
and during his seventh year, in 457 BC, he decreed that Jerusalem be
restored. Nehemiah, the cupbearer to Artaxerxes, was sent to
Jerusalem in 444 BC to complete the work on the walls of the city to
fortify it. Thus the period of 62 weeks represents 434 years, which
