    What year was Jesus Born

    Hi Elijah. SDA's say the cross was AD31. Futurists say AD33. I say AD30. My study on it is here.

    What year was Jesus Born

    These days we are easy going about it. People often say, "well he came, and that's the main thing isnt it?" However, when we read the gospels (and para biblical writings too) many were searching the scriptures concerning "the times". Sinthesis mentions the wise men. Thats something that has...

    Question about Daniel 9

    Jeremiah began expressing his prophecy from the 4th year of Jehoiakim (Jer 25) and expanded the detail of it in his letter. (Jer 29) He then kept repeating himself throughout the reign of Zedekiah. By the end of Zedekiahs reign they got fed up with him and had him locked up. (Jer 32) But...

    What year was Jesus Born

    The SDA's are generally quite good on the 'weeks' but they are one year out. Jesus death can be proved to be AD30 but the SDA's are obliged to say AD31 because their 'prophetess' told them so. You cannot get them to admit it, but they treat Ellen Whites words as infallible. As for the birth...

    Question about Daniel 9

    You seem to be exaggerating the differences between ‘word’, ‘command’, ‘edict’, and ‘decree’ in order to build a case for starting the count at Jeremiah’s prophecy instead of from an emperors decree. However, the Emperors decree was not as 'man-made' as you are suggesting. Ezra 6:14 shows...

    Question about Daniel 9

    Point of clarification please. Are you saying that the Emperors decree was different and of less significance than Jeremiah's 'word'? Was the Emperors decree 'man-made' as opposed to Jeremiah's word which carried divine authority? Ill get to your other points after this matter you seem to...

    Question about Daniel 9

    Jesus the Anointed One. Notwithstanding the textual pause between the 7 and the 62 weeks, I believe that they speak of the same anointed person. My diagram here: As far as the specific shmita years and how they tie in with Daniels 'weeks', I follow the chronology of Zuckermann.

    Question about Daniel 9

    I do not accept that there is a time gap between the 7 and the 62 anymore than there is a gap between the 69 and the 70. The ‘weeks’ are intrinsically part of the Sabbath-year system (shmita) and the years run consecutively. Your Hebrew may be better than mine Eddy but you need to brush up on...

    Question about Daniel 9

    Please address the historical Christian view So you are presenting us with the Jewish debunk of (ONE) Christian explanation of the 'weeks.' OK, but please remember that the most vocal Christian interpretation (the one Sir Robert Anderson popularized) is actually not the historical...

    The Book of Zephaniah

    Good question. I believe this is one of those visions that had a near/far fulfillment. Its 'near fulfillment' speaks of the conquests of Babylon. However it is also a precursor of the 'day of the Lord' which is to come! Its 'far fulfillment' speaks of the end of the world outlined in 2...

    Question about Daniel 9

    It relates to an ancient soli-lunar formula. Dan 12 references to 1335 and 1290 show the days needed to be added to 1260 so that the ancient calendar could be synchronized with the solar cycle. Daniel 9 however, is referring to the calendar before leap days are added. Having said that, I...

    When does "thousand" not mean "thousand?"

    Gods strength be with you Stormcrow.

    When does "thousand" not mean "thousand?"

    12 = divine government 12 x 12 = 144, the complete kingdom 144 x 1000 = 144000, the vast number of those who make up the kingdom of God

    When does "thousand" not mean "thousand?"

    Good argument and I completely agree. Now, lets take your logic to "the 144,000." What does it represent?

    Temple Cleansing 'Contradiction.'

    If there really was a contradiction between John and the other gospels concerning the clearing of the temple, it would be a single error about timing. John says it happened at the beginning of Jesus’ ministry but Matthew, Mark and Luke say at the end. Now, when an author makes a mistake, he is...

    Temple Cleansing 'Contradiction.'

    Contradiction hunters may have done Bible-believers a favour when it comes to their old favourite, "when did Jesus cleanse the Temple?" In each of the synoptic gospels – Matthew, Mark and Luke - the event comes at the end, only days before his arrest. However, St. John's book doesn't say that...
