Joshua 1:11 Pass through the host, and command the people, saying, Prepare you victuals; for within three days ye shall pass over this Jordan, to go in to possess the land, which the LORD your God giveth you to possess it.

Daniel 9:25 Know therefore and understand, that from the going forth of the commandment to restore and to build Jerusalem unto the Messiah the Prince shall be seven weeks, and threescore and two weeks: the street shall be built again, and the wall, even in troublous times.

Daniel 9:26 And after threescore and two weeks shall Messiah be cut off, but not for himself: and the people of the prince that shall come shall destroy the city and the sanctuary; and the end thereof shall be with a flood, and unto the end of the war desolations are determined.

Daniel 9:27 And he shall confirm the covenant with many for one week: and in the midst of the week he shall cause the sacrifice and the oblation to cease, and for the overspreading of abominations he shall make it desolate, even until the consummation, and that determined shall be poured upon the desolate.

Crucifixion of Christ 33 AD Secular Evidence

MINNEAPOLIS (AP) - Astronomical clues and passages from the Bible indicate the crucifixion of Jesus Christ occurred on April 3, 33 A.D., a University of Minnesota professor says.

Karlis Kaufmanis, professor emeritus of astronomy at the U of M, said that countless inquiries have suggested the crucifixion took someplace between the years 29 and 33.

Astronomers have determined that only the years 30 and 33 satisfy biblical statements that Jesus died on a Friday followed by the Jewish feast of Passover, celebrated on the first full moon of the spring.

“The crucifixion, therefore, would have taken place either on Friday, April 7, A.D. 30, or on Friday, April 3, A.D. 33,” Kaufmanis said. “There are no other possible dates.”

Solomon's Temple Completed in 959 BC

1Kings 6:38 And in the eleventh year, in the month Bul, which is the eighth month, was the house finished throughout all the parts thereof, and according to all the fashion of it. So was he seven years in building it.

Solomon becomes King in 971 BC

*Note

Nisan is the month that start a New Year for a King. Nisan is considered the first month, although it occurs 6 or 7 months after the start of the Jewish Civil year.

Two significant biblical events that occurred within 990 years.

990 Year and 5 months (Jewish Reckoning)

959 BC (Bul) years ( 8 month)

33 AD Nisan

959 Years to Year 1 AD Bul (October /November)

Year 1 (8 month) + 31 years (October /November, 32 AD) + 5 months Nisan (March-April, 33 AD)

 

Corner stone, the stone which lies at the corner of two walls, and unites them; the principal stone; especially, the stone which forms the corner of the foundation of an edifice; hence, that which is fundamental importance or indispensable.

Also, when we apply the Significant Biblical Event Timing Rule to the 990 Years between the Completion of Solomon's Temple and the Crucifixion (the start of a Spiritual Temple) we apparently discover the year 2012, as a possible year for the End of the World.

2970 Jewish Years

959 BC (Bul) years ( 8 month Bul)

2012 Tishri

959 Years to Year 1 AD Bul (October /November)

Year 1 (8 month) + 2010 years (October/November, 2011) + 11 months = (Tishri* -September -October , 2012)

*Tishri start of a New Jewish Year (Civil Calendar)

Bul: rainy, the eighth ecclesiastical month of the year (1 Kings 6:38), and the second month of the civil year; later called Marchesvan. The Final harvest occurs 11 months from the rains that star in the 8th month (Final harvest is in Tishri the seventh month of a Jewish Sacred year)
