    So did Russell use 607 BCE or Pyramids to first develop the 1914 teaching?

    Russell borrowed the 1914 calculation from Second Adventist preacher Nelson H. Barbour -- you can see this in the "Kingdom Proclaimers" book on page 47.

    The pyramid calculation seems to have been more supporting evidence, at least to Russell and his followers.

    John Aquila Brown first used mathematical calculation which totalled 2,520 years in
    1823 book "The Even Tide "
