VAT4956 - 530 BC destruction of Jerusalem by Nebuchadnezzar

by jwposter in

in my studies, i have concluded that year 530 bc was when the destruction of jerusalem occurred and the temple destroyed.

i had determined this prior to investigation of vat4956.

i had already found that the jubilees, sabbaticals, courses of the priests, and chronology attested to this.

Another birth dating piece is the rotation of the Priesthood. We know that the first course of the Priests served in the Temple at the time of the destruction in the second week of the 5th month in 70 AD.

We know that the 8th course served during the day of Atonement when Zacharias was serving in the Temple in 4 B.C.E.

Luk 1:5 There was in the days of Herod, the king of Judaea, a certain priest named Zacharias, of the course of Abia: and his wife was of the daughters of Aaron, and her name was Elisabeth.

We simply plot the courses through the years backwards from 70 AD and see that the 8th course would be serving during the 2nd week of the 7th month in 4 B.C.E.

Another great piece of our evidence for Jesus is that he entered his 30th year when Tiberius was in the 15th year of his reign. This further cements the 3 B.C.E birth of Jesus since we know that Tiberius became the emperor in 14 AD.

Of course we now know that Herod's dating of his death to 4 BC is in error. As the dating of the death is based on the reigning years and death of his son Phillip as indicated in the works of Josephus. However, the earlier works base the death of Phillip in the 22nd year of Tiberius instead of the 20th year of Tiberius thus moving the years forward.

We know that he died after the lunar eclipse of Jan 10th in 1 B.C.E according to Josephus. This aligns with the early Church Historians that put his death in the time of 3 B.C.E.

Clement of Alexandria quoted the year of Jesus birth very well with saying that it was 194 years, 1 month, and 13 days before the death of Commodus.

We know that Jesus death was in 31 AD because that is the 1st year of the 40 years to the Destruction of the 2nd Temple by the Romans. That destruction and 40 years also serving the type for those that follow Bible Typology.

So the 70 weeks are 10 Jubilees periods that at the end of the 70 years of captivity and lead to Christ. Of course, the 70 years of captivity started in 530 B.C.E and would have been ended in 460 B.C.E. That year was the year in which the 70th Jubilee would be heralded. (Very fitting). Then from there we go 490 years unto 31 AD where the next Jubilee is declared - 80th. Of course if you count Jubilee from there to the 120th in 1991 then you will see were in the last cycle before the 2nd Coming when the Lord destroys the Ungodly which is very terrorizing event that is going to set the earth on fire.

2Pe 3:12 Looking for and hasting unto the coming of the day of God, wherein the heavens being on fire shall be dissolved, and the elements shall melt with fervent heat?

2Pe 3:13 Nevertheless we, according to his promise, look for new heavens and a new earth, wherein dwelleth righteousness.

But that day cannot really come until Secularism rises to its climax on earth where mankind sees itself as God and uses its practices to promote what it believes is best for man with a forward rejection of all that is religion but not without first using religion to prune out those elements holding unto more orthodox positions.

Now the timeline of Jesus Death and Resurrection is important in this timeline.

The Birth of Jesus was in 3 BC and the Death and Resurrection was in 31 AD. This is important because a few things intersect at the time in the year of the Resurrection. We have to have correlation to the 70 AD destruction, correlation to the Jubilees, correlation to the 70 weeks Prophecy and correlation to the Festivals and to the Exodus timeline. While it is highly disputed one when the year of the resurrection and the Birth of Jesus was it really shouldn't be when we analyze the data.

Jesus was born during the Feast of Lights in 3 BC. And was crucified on the Jewish day beginning on March 25th (Julian) of 31 AD. We have a lot of good evidence for these dates.

For those that don't believe you could see the moon that morning of May 4th in -511 (512 B.C.E), the moon was illuminated 3% with a magnitude of -5.17 which is clearly in the visible range.

The 2nd month in -567 was illuminated 0.9% on first crescent at evening observance on May 21st with a Magnitude of -4.18.

In other words, the moon was more visible during their morning observation for the 2nd month in -511 then the evening observance was in -567. Again, this is why the moon would have been thick in -511 when the evening observance came.

Again, on line 8:

8. On the 1st of Airu (Nisan had 30d ), while the sun still stood there, the moon became visible 4 cubits below the western rearward star of the Great Twins; it was wide, wore the tiara [ ... ].

The sun still stood there is a reference that the moon was spotted after sunrise. This observation would have taken place in the morning. But in -567 the moon is not luminated at sunrise. Therefore, there is no way they could determine that morning to be first crescent. But in -511 the crescent is illuminated in the observation at moon rise after sunrise. That is why later in the day as it drifts even further away from the sun that it becomes THICK during the evening observation.

Again, 568 (-567) doesn't conform. Never said that Mercury didn't set. And the moon is not thick. Also, in 959 B.C.E, for the Israelites, their 7th month wouldn't be in November but on 9/19 would be the beginning of the first night of the month. Also, of course Mars was nowhere near Praesepe in -511. That is because N/W named Praesepe based on what they saw in -567. They didn't use Praesepe to find the year. They use the year to find Praesepe.

Also, I often use the term BC instead of B.C.E. Please substitute B.C.E for BC. It is a habit I'm sure I'll persist in. As you know the designation of BC is considered "Before Christ". But that would only be the case if BC was really before Christ. The birth of Jesus was in 3 B.C.E so BC is not technically before Him.
