70 years = 607?
by allelsefails in70 years of captivity?.
i myself have always believed that when archaeology disagreed with the bible the bible must be right.
that is how i dismissed the idea that jerusalem was destroyed in 586/587 bce.

Interpretations belong to God who has always and at the present reveals such matters to His servants, the True Church who then have the responsibilty of making known to others such interpretations. You need to read Daniel carefully verse by verse and read other commentaries on the book including those published by the WT Society. The book of Daniel most certainly abounds with moth literal and figurative elements so the problem is for you to deal with not me.

Alan F was vanquished by scholar on every occasion and this is a matter of public record for the very fact that scholar disputed on every occasion over many years proves that scholar was a most worthy opponent and he is still going strong whereas Alan F has retreated into his hole defeated by scholar. The same could also be said of Jeffro and many others who sought to defeat scholar on chronology.

I agree and because our calculation is based on the Bible and in harmony with its entirety, simple to explain and understand proves the validity of the interpretation.
The historical evidence supports 607 BCE rather than the fictitious dates of 586 or 587BCE but more importantly our date is biblically based because it considers the historical period of the seventy years. Your dates do not consider the 70 years as a fixed historical period so your comments are foolish.
Your regnal based chronology based on Ptolemy's Canon does not account for the seventy years whereas our superior event-based chronology does.

The Bible proves that 607BCE is the only possible date for the Fall of Jerusalem and such evidence has been presented so I suggest you submit your application to pioneer but you should brush up on your knowledge first.

I agree that the contect does indicate servitude of the nations to Babylon during the seventy years of Judean servitude but we have no precise chronologies of Babylonian domination of those nations as we have with Jeremiah's prophecy against Judah.
It is absurd to claim that the seventy years ended with the Fall of Babylon in 539 BCE, it is simply a false and impossible claim but you are entitrled to your view and on this point we agree to disagree.

The calculation of 537 BCE for the Return and the related texts have been widely discussed so if you have our publications then you can easily work the matter out. It is not rocket science so if you have the smarts then you can easily research the matter.

Scholar has made an ass of Alan F exposing him to be a fraud who does not even believe in the things he writes about. His credibility has been torn to shreds for he is an avowed atheist/agnostic and does not believe in the Bible and Christianity.

Eschatology requires interpretation and so with the use of 'times' in Revelation can be used as a prophetic formula in the understanding of other usages of this expression. The 'times' of Revelation pertain to historic events in connection with the True Church soon after the birth of the Kingdom so that would require a more literal interpretation. In Daniel we see that times has both a literal and figurative meaning as proven by the context. In short, one must pay close attention to the context of these expressions whether in Daniel or Revelation and also to pay close attention to the faithful and discrret slave which nicely utilizes the research done over may years by the 'celebrated WT scholars. I hope this helps.
