When is the next Year of Jubilee?
Compelling archaeological and prophetic evidence suggests the ram’s horn announcing the 70th Year of Jubilee will sound on the Day of Atonement in October 2023. In this article you’ll learn:
- Why the next Jubilee Year starts in March 2024
- Evidence that 2024 is the 70th Jubilee anniversary since Israel entered the promised land
- How the Year of Jubilee under the Mosaic covenant foreshadows its glorious spiritual fulfillment in the New Covenant
- What are God’s 49 and 50-year cycles? How they’re both culminating right now in the 7-year period from 2017 to 2024
Yom Kippur 2023
This day will announce the 70th Year of Jubilee since Joshua led Israel to enter the promised land in 1406 BC. This 70th Year of Jubilee will celebrate our release from the toils of this world and the restoration of our ancient spiritual inheritance in God’s kingdom.
Dispelling Confusion About When a Jubilee Year Starts
Each coming Year of Jubilee should be announced by shofar blasts on Yom Kippur in the 49th year of the Jubilee cycle. Then, the Year of Jubilee starts about 6 months later, on the 1st day of the 1st month of the 50th year. (The 50th year overlaps with the 1st year of the next 49-year cycle. See the diagram below.)
In the quote below, Hebrew scholar Dr. Nehemiah Gordon explains this more simply: (emphasis mine)
The Torah says the following:
“And you shall pass a shofar of blasting in the Seventh Month on the tenth of the month; on the Day of Atonement, you shall pass a shofar throughout all your land.” (Leviticus 25:9)
This verse is saying that a shofar should be used to announce the arrival of the Jubilee year, the 50th year in the Sabbatical system. It does not say that the Jubilee begins on the Day of Atonement, only that the impending arrival of the Jubilee year is announced on the Day of Atonement. The shofar is to be passed throughout the land on Yom Kippur of the 49th year, six months before the beginning of the coming Jubilee year. This interpretation is supported by the immediate context in Leviticus 25. Verse 8 says to count forty nine years, verse 9 says to pass the shofar throughout the land, and verse 10 says to proclaim the 50th year as the Jubilee. This shows that the shofar announcing the coming Jubilee in verse 9 is passed through the land before the Jubilee is actually proclaimed in verse 10.
Nehemiah’s Wall 9-18-22
This is why I stated the shofar announcing a 2024 Year of Jubilee would be sounded on Yom Kippur in 2023.
What is the Year of Jubilee?
According to Leviticus 25:8, the Biblical Year of Jubilee happens after every 49-year cycle. It’s announced on Yom Kippur, the Day of Atonement–the holiest day on God’s calendar when the High Priest enters God’s presence to ‘cover’ the sins of the whole nation. The Year of Jubilee is a whole year of rest for men, animals, and the land.
The Ancient Hebrew Year of Jubilee
Jubilee first appears in the book of Leviticus. God said a Jubilee year was to be celebrated after every 49 years. During this 50th Jubilee year, all debts were erased and all indentured Israelites were freed. Everyone and everything in Israel was to be restored to their original clans and families.
God told Moses to start the 49-year Jubilee cycle “when you enter the land that I am giving to you.” Also, “the land itself must observe a Sabbath to the LORD..” (Leviticus 25:2)
There’s no record of Israel ever celebrating the Year of Jubilee by complying with all its requirements to forgive debts, free slaves, etc.
Jubilee in the New Covenant
Enter Our Promised Land
Just as Israel was to celebrate Jubilee after entering their promised land under Joshua, we have a spiritual promised land to enter. What better time to enter our promised land than on the 70th Jubilee anniversary?

In the New Covenant, the Year of Jubilee represents entering our promised land, when God glorifies His overcomers.
This restoration includes: complete deliverance from our sinful nature, glorification, immortality, and restoring our heavenly inheritance in God’s kingdom.
Return to Your Property and Your Clan
…consecrate the fiftieth year and proclaim liberty in the land for all its inhabitants. It shall be your Jubilee, when each of you is to return to his property and to his clan.
Leviticus 25:10
Property and Clan
Return to His Property
What property are we to return to? Before you can understand the property we’re returning to, you need to know where we came from in our past.
Warning–the following section will probably be new and strange to you, so I ask you to consider this information without preconceived bias, according to the Bible–not according to denominational theology.
Our spirits existed with God in the eon of time before Adam, but we all fell into sin, resulting in God destroying the earth, making it without form and void. Our spirits continued to exist, but sin alienated us from our holy God. The situation was hopeless–something in us died. Then, since ‘before the foundation of the earth,’ God devised a plan to reconcile us through the sacrifice of His Son, our Savior and Messiah. (Revelation 13:8, 17:8, Ephesians 1:4, Titus 1:2, Matthew 25:34)
Now, during our present eon, God reconciles Himself (and restores spiritual life) to every spirit who responds to the gospel truth. This includes everyone who receives the Father’s forgiveness through faith in our Savior and Messiah, Jesus. We are ‘begotten-again’ in a new creation. We’re sons of the ‘Second Adam.’ (see John 3:3, 1 Peter 1:3, 1:23 1 John 5:18, 2 Cor 5:17, Gal 6:15, 1 Cor 15:47)
Therefore, Jubilee will be fulfilled when we recover our previous state of glory and joy in YHWH’s presence. Just as the Israelites returned to their ancestral allotment of land, God will restore us to our ancient spiritual position in His kingdom, completely reconciled and reinstated through His infinite grace and love.
I realize these concepts are not commonly taught, so if you’re curious to learn more about our spiritual pre-existence and God’s plan of reconciliation, refer to my free book, the Overcomers’ Treasure Map.
Return to His Clan – Spiritual Israel
What clan will we return to? When believers are grafted into Israel (Romans 11:17-21) we are grafted into one of spiritual Israel’s tribes. Within each tribe of spiritual Israel are families, or ‘mishpachah,’ which is translated ‘clans’ in Leviticus 25:10 above.
Natural Israel versus Spiritual Israel
Be careful–don’t confuse the present state of Israel, or Jewish people, with ‘spiritual Israel.’ The apostle Paul wrote:
Now Hagar stands for Mount Sinai in Arabia and corresponds to present-day Jerusalem, because she is in slavery with her children. But the Jerusalem above is free, and she is our mother.
Galatians 4:26
Paul was a Jewish rabbi, and he loved his Jewish countrymen. YHWH also loves the physical descendants of Abraham, and many natural Jews will be reconciled to the Father through faith. But, YHWH has no favorite children who can disregard His rules. Yeshua is the only door to reconciliation–access to the Father is only through faith in Yeshua as our Passover and atonement sacrifice. (John 10:1-18, 1 Cor 5:7)
Spiritual Israel
So, in contrast to natural Israel, ‘spiritual’ Israel is comprised of every person (from any nation) who responds to the gospel truth–everyone who has ever been reconciled to the Father through faith in our Savior and Messiah, Jesus.
What about believers who lived before Jesus came? Spiritual Israel includes ancient saints, such as Abel, Seth, Enoch, Noah, Abraham, Ruth, and all the others who looked forward to the Savior in their future. Spiritual Israel is based only on faith in YHWH’s promises, not on carnal lineage. Therefore, Spiritual Israel includes all disciples of YHWH, since Abel, who wholeheartedly trust Him and walk in His ways.
Our Clan?
Currently, most of us don’t know what tribe and clan we belong to. I expect God will reveal our clan ‘allotment’ during Jubilee’s fulfillment. From then on, we’ll possess an eternal home within one of the 12 tribes of spiritual Israel.
Your Eternal Home
Jerusalem today is divided into four quarters–Jewish, Muslim, Armenian, and Christian. And, there are ancient gates coming into each quarter. But, the New Jerusalem will come down from heaven. It has 12 gates–one for each tribe of spiritual Israel. Each gate is made of a single pearl (Revelation 21:12). If you’re a disciple, one of these gates will access your clan’s portion of the city–your eternal home in God’s capital on earth.
During the Year of Jubilee, the Land Itself Will Observe a Sabbath
…when you enter the land that I am giving to you, the land itself must observe a Sabbath to the LORD.
Leviticus 25:2
When YHWH fulfills Jubilee, the earth itself will enter into Sabbath rest.
All of creation eagerly awaits the manifestation of the (144,000) sons of God. When Jubilee Year comes, creation will be delivered from the bondage of decay into glorious freedom:
The creation waits in eager expectation for the revelation of the sons of God. For the creation was subjected to futility, not by its own will, but because of the One who subjected it, in hope that the creation itself will be set free from its bondage to decay and brought into the glorious freedom of the children of God.
Romans 8:19-21
Not only will the overcomers return to their ancient property and clan, but YHWH will return creation to its original state in the Jubilee Year. During the Millennial Reign of Messiah the earth will be like the Garden of Eden, prosperous and peaceful.
God’s ‘Appointed Times’ Reveal God’s Plan and Sequence of Events

In Leviticus chapter 23 God established 7 ‘appointed times’ for His people. These appointed times symbolically portray God’s plan of redemption and deliverance. They also reveal how God will re-establish His kingdom on the earth.
God’s Appointed Times
Jesus fulfilled the first 4 (Passover, Unleavened Bread, Firstfruits, and Pentecost) on the exact days and times while the Jews were celebrating them.
Therefore, it’s reasonable to expect God will fulfill the remaining 3 (Trumpets, Atonement, and Tabernacles) exactly on their annual anniversaries in our future.
The Biblical 49-Year Jubilee Cycle
Starting on the year Israel entered the ‘promised land,’ the Jubilee-year cycle occurs every 49 years.
Here are the details from Leviticus 25:
Shmitah Years – Sabbath Every 7th Year
When you enter the land that I am giving you, the land itself must observe a Sabbath to the LORD…For six years you may sow your field and prune your vineyard and gather its crops. But in the seventh year there shall be a Sabbath of complete rest for the land—a Sabbath to the LORD…The land must have a year of complete rest.
Leviticus 25:2,3,5
Year of Jubilee – Every 49 Years (7 Shmitah periods)
And you shall count off seven sabbaths of years—seven times seven years—so that the seven sabbaths of years amount to forty-nine years. Then you are to sound the trumpet far and wide on the tenth day of the seventh month, on the Day of Atonement. You shall sound it throughout your land. So you are to consecrate the fiftieth year and proclaim liberty in the land for all its inhabitants. It shall be your Jubilee, when each of you is to return to his property and to his clan.
Leviticus 25:8-10
The 50th Year in the 49-Year Jubilee Cycle
The Jubilee-Year cycle repeats every 49 years (7 shmitahs), but the actual Year of Jubilee is the 50th year. That is, the 50th year is the same as (it overlaps) the first year in the next 49-year cycle. Here’s a diagram to illustrate this overlap:

So, in this diagram, both year #1 and year #50 are Jubilee years.
Here’s another example: Every week has 7 days. According to the Bible, Sunday is the first day and Saturday is the seventh day. The next Sunday would be the eighth day, but it’s also the first day of the next week.
If this 49 versus 50 concept is still confusing, watch this video for a good explanation.
When is the next Year of Jubilee?
If you ask Google ‘When is the next year of Jubilee’ you’ll see there’s a lot of ignorance, disagreement, and confusion about this question. It’s a mystery.
According to Leviticus chapter 25, the Biblical Jubilee year cycle started when Israel entered the Promised Land.
Then the LORD said to Moses on Mount Sinai, “Speak to the Israelites and say to them: When you enter the land that I am giving you, the land itself must observe a Sabbath to the LORD.”
Leviticus 25:1
I discovered a BibleArchaeology.org article that convincingly proves that Joshua led Israel to enter the Promised Land in 1406BC. A search on their website will provide many references to 1406BC. Here is one of them:
The commencement of the conquest can be dated exactly. With the exodus datable to 1446 BC, the conquest automatically is dated to 1406 BC, because for “40 years the sons of Israel walked in the wilderness” before entering Canaan (Josh 5:6). Since the crossing of the Jordan River transpired on the 10th day of the first month, a date of 28 April 1406 BC is fixed as the day in which the Israelites crossed into Canaan (Josh 4:19).
BibleArchaeology link
Year of Jubilee Starting in 2024?
Based on this 1406BC start date and a 49-year Jubilee cycle, the next Jubilee Year will start on Day 1 of the Biblical calendar, in the spring of 2024, and Jubilee will be formally announced by trumpet blasts on Yom Kippur, in the autumn of 2023. It will be the 70th Jubilee.
Here are my calculations:
2024AD + 1406BC = 3430 years.
3430/49=70
The pattern and dates fit exactly, just as they would if they match God’s plan.
In his 1260d.com website, Dean Coombs provides detailed corroboration that the 70th Year of Jubilee will start in 2024.
2017 and the 50-Year Cycle
In the 20th century important events happened for the Jews and the nation of Israel. Events occurred in 1917 and 1967, 50-years apart, making people wonder if something big would also happen for Israel in 2017… 50 years after 1967 and 100 years after 1917.
I enjoyed Israel’s 70th birthday in May 2018 in Jerusalem with Dr. Michael Heiser and Derek & Sharon Gilbert of Skywatch TV. As you can see in my iPhone video below, Israelis filled the streets, celebrating with overflowing joy on the day the American Embassy moved there from Tel Aviv. Being there was an awesome experience!
22 Seconds of Joyous Celebration in 2018 Jerusalem
Recognizing Israel’s Capital and Moving the US Embassy
On December 6, 2017 President Trump officially recognized Jerusalem as Israel’s capital and announced plans to move the US Embassy. But, other than the Revelation 12 Sign in the heavens, I can’t find any other ‘big’ events that happened regarding Israel in 2017… at least not on the same level as the 1917 Balfour Declaration or the 1967 Six-Day War.
The 50-Year Cycle
People naturally associate this 50-year 2017/1967/2017 cycle with Leviticus 25:11, which says, “You shall have the fiftieth year as a Jubilee.” They assume that since every fiftieth year is a Jubilee, therefore 1917 and 1967 must have been Jubilee years because God did good things for Israel on these events which were fifty years apart.
Not a Jubilee Cycle
As I’ll explain below, I do recognize this important 50-year cycle. But it’s not the Jubilee-Year cycle.
For a compelling presentation why 49 is correct for Jubilee Year calculations instead of 50, see Jubilee Year Cycle (49 or 50?)
The 50-Year Cycle – Since Creation
The 50-year cycle started at creation, approximately 3983 BC, not in 1406 BC when the Jubilee cycle started.
So, what does the 50-year cycle symbolize? The apostle Peter wrote,
Beloved, do not let this one thing escape your notice: With the Lord a day is like a thousand years, and a thousand years are like a day.
2 Peter 3:8
Therefore six days represent 6000 years. Six days reminds us of the 6 days of creation before God rested on the 7th day.
Most Bible teachers believe this means mankind will have 6000 years before the ‘7th-day’ millennial reign of Christ begins. 6000 is evenly divisible by 50, resulting in 120. 6000/50 = 120
The number 120 will immediately remind Bible readers of what God said in Genesis 6:3… After 200 angels mated with human women, producing ‘Nephilim’ giants (for more about this see the Book of Enoch chapter 6), God said:
My Spirit will not contend with man forever, for he is mortal; his days shall be 120 years.
Genesis 6:3
The Perfect Resolution of the 49-Year and 50-Year Cycles
Let’s connect the dots…
50-Year Cycle
The 50-year cycle begins with the Biblical creation in Genesis, ending (after 6000 years) on its 120th anniversary in 2017.
After 6000 years, the 120th anniversary of the 50-year 1917/1967/2017 cycle coincides with the beginning of Daniel’s 70th week in 2017.
2017 starts the final 7-year shmitah cycle.
49-Year Jubilee Cycle
In contrast, the Bible reckons the 49-year Jubilee cycle from when Israel entered the promised land in 1406 BC, ending on its 70th anniversary in 2024.
The 70th anniversary of the 49-year Jubilee cycle coincides with the end of Daniel’s 70th week in 2024.
Coincidence?
The 120th and 70th anniversaries of the two cycles are symbolically significant in themselves. But for them to frame the beginning and end of the 2017-2024 period is too auspicious to ignore or discount. I cannot believe this is coincidental.
When Does Daniel’s 70th Week Start?
What event initiates Daniel’s 70th week?
Daniel 9:27 famously states, “And he will make a firm covenant with the many for one week“. But, who is the “he” who makes this firm covenant? And what is this ‘covenant with the many’ for one week?
- The common view is “he” refers to the Antichrist, who will make a ‘covenant with many’ for 7 years.
- A common assumption is the ‘covenant with many’ is a 7-year peace treaty between the Antichrist and Israel.
- But, others believe “he” refers to Jesus, who confirmed the New Covenant in His own blood, poured out for many. (Matthew 26:28, also Mark 14:24)
- Finally, many believe Antiochus IV Epiphanes already fulfilled many details of Daniel’s prophecies in 167-164 BC.
With so many unknowns I’m not confident we can know who “he” is, or what the ‘covenant with many’ is. As a result, we may not recognize the event that starts Daniel’s 70th week.
Conclusion – The 70th Year of Jubilee
A Bright Future
We are living at the end of the age, and the birth pangs are increasing for everyone. The good news is that God will defeat all His enemies and God’s people have nothing to worry about.
When these things begin to happen, stand up and lift up your heads, because your redemption is drawing near.
Luke 21:28
There is nothing man can do to us if we are in Christ.
Who shall separate us from the love of Christ? Shall trouble or distress or persecution or famine or nakedness or danger or sword? As it is written:
For Your sake we face death all day long; we are considered as sheep to be slaughtered.” No, in all these things we are more than conquerors through Him who loved us. For I am convinced that neither death nor life, neither angels nor principalities, neither the present nor the future, nor any powers, neither height nor depth, nor anything else in all creation, will be able to separate us from the love of God that is in Christ Jesus our Lord.
Romans 8:35-39

Finally, my advice is to be watchful. Abide in God’s Spirit continuously, listening and obeying His voice. Strive to make yourself ready for the Lord’s imminent appearing.

Love to receive your lessons
Those are awesome
Ok, so 20 years ago a vision was shared with me that led me to certain eschatological understandings. Zerubbabel in Zechariah 4 and Haggai 2 is a symbol of 1 of the 2 witnesses. It has nothing to do with the man of that era. He is seated before Joshua the high priest in Zechariah 3:8, as a symbol of a future person
Zechariah 3:8
‘Now listen, Joshua the high priest, you and your friends who are sitting in front of you
———(hi I’m Zerubbabel and I’m sitting here as a symbol of a future person In Zechariah 4,)———
indeed they are men who are a symbol, for behold, I am going to bring in My servant the Branch.
Joshua the high priest is a symbol of Christ in Zechariah 3 and 6. Zerubbabel is a symbol of 1 of the 2 witnesses in Haggai 2 and Zechariah 4. Its entirety concealed. You would look at Zechariah 4 and say “oh no that’s speaking of building the second temple”. It is not! Zerubabbel did not touch the foundation of the second temple. Sheshbazzar was given credit for laying the foundation because he was the first governor appointed by Cyrus.
Ezra 5:16
16Then that Sheshbazzar came and laid the foundations of the house of God in Jerusalem; and from then until now it has been under construction and it is not yet completed.’
Ezra 3:7 the people hired masons and carpenters with the grant from Cyrus. They appointed Levites (not Zerubbabel) to oversee the workmen that they hired.
Look, to cut to the chase the book of Haggai contains future messages to future persons that are concealed. Zerubbabel is a symbol, Zerubbabel of old, is not 1 of the 2 witness but a symbol of 1 who will begin the ministry in the spirit and power of Elijah. After these events below happen
Haggai 2:21-23
21“Speak to Zerubbabel governor of Judah, saying,
Events below
‘I am going to shake the heavens and the earth. 22And I will overthrow the thrones of kingdoms and destroy the power of the kingdoms of the [v]nations; and I will overthrow the chariots and their riders, and the horses and their riders will go down, every one by the sword of another.’
sometime shortly after that ^^^^^, the below will occur, and at this time the restoration all all things will begin.
23‘On that day,’ declares the LORD of armies, ‘I will take you, Zerubbabel, son of Shealtiel, My servant,’ declares the LORD, ‘and I will make you like a [w]signet ring, for I have chosen you,’” declares the LORD of armies.
The above represents the first shaking of heaven and earth. Seems to describe a war of some sort. Perhaps coupled with other cataclysmic events.
When the writer of Hebrews quoted Haggai 2:6. He says “Yet once more”. The reason why, is because there are 2 separate and distinct shakings mentioned in Haggai 2. The first on is the one above. The final one is mentioned in Haggai 2:6. It is the final shaking where the LORD will enter into Judgment with all nations.
Hebrews 12:26
26And His voice shook the earth then, but now He has promised, saying, “YET ONCE MORE I WILL SHAKE NOT ONLY THE EARTH, BUT ALSO THE HEAVEN.” 27This expression, “Yet once more,” denotes the removing of those things which can be shaken, as of created things, so that those things which cannot be shaken may remain.
The is a quote of Haggai 2:6
6For this is what the LORD of armies says: ‘Once more [h]in a little while, I am going to shake the heavens and the earth, the sea also and the dry land. 7I will shake all the nations; and [i]they will come with the wealth of all nations, and I will fill this house with glory,’ says the LORD of armies.
That phrase “once more” and a message to the future Zerubabbel , and others, denotes this was not the first shaking of heaven and earth but rather the final shaking wherein that which can be removed will be.
What is so completely and highly veiled is that Haggai 2:1-9 is ENTIRELY a future message. The remnant of the land are represented in Zechariah 3:8 as future persons. A symbol of things to come, in this era.
That message is time stamped for the 7th day of tabernacles. That message is coming on the 7th day of Sukkot sometime after the first shaking. I was personally thinking the first shaking would happen before the 7th day of Tabernacles this year.
You may not understand, but if we are where I think we may be, things are about to change and will never be the same. Ultimately, in a good way for those who love the LORD and do his will.
It is possible that I’m mistaken regarding some of this, but I doubt I’m completely wrong
Jon,
You raise some very interesting possibilities.
1. The tie between Zech 4, the 2 cherubim, and the 2 witnesses is obvious to me.
2. Time will tell if Haggai’s Tishri 21 timestamp applies to the war that just started.
3. Regarding Haggai 2:1-9 being future, it may well be. This discussion also reminds me of Isaiah 34:1-6.
4. Hag 2:22 also speaks of God overthrowing the throne of kingdoms, which could represent Satan’s throne over all nations.
5. Finally, Hag 2:9 foretells the latter glory of God’s house being so much greater than the former glory. I’ve written extensively about this glory on the 144,000 tab of this website.
It looks like my timing was a month ahead. It makes me wonder if my calendar is a month off? I would expect Jerusalem to be damaged (to a certain extent).
Jon,
You’ve written many comments on this site.
What timing are you referring to, that it might be 1 month off?
On Aug 6, 2023 you wrote, “Beginning in late August things might begin to escalate. September 26, October 7-8, if it’s this year, watch for war.”
Is this the timing you’re referring to?
Tom
I am actually referring to the LORDS calendar. The reason I mentioned Oct 7-8 is because I had that marked as the 7th day of Sukkot and the great 8th Day. I am going by the sighting of the new moon in Jerusalem. My expectation at this time was that we would be into a full scale world wide war. I thought the events that we are seeing now would begin a month or so sooner. I’m wondering if we aren’t actually still in the 6th month. There is one woman who does barley sightings in Israel that believes that we are still in the 6th months. If so, the dates to really watch are Oct. 25 and November 5-6. It seems a little late to me, but either way, It does appear things are going to escalate
When was the previous Jubilee?
Selena, if you’re asking when the last 49-year Jubilee anniversary ended, I’d say 1975 or 1976. If you’re asking when’s the last time Jubilee was celebrated, the nation of Israel has never celebrated the Jubilee in accordance with Leviticus 25. I
As there is no year 0 you need to add 1 year to your calculations. Also, you need to add another 1 year because the end of your count does not occur in the year of your math, but the next year. The last year of the 3430 years ends in the next year unless you start your count in 1405. When the end of the 3,430 years arrives, that date/year would start the 70th Jubilee year.
John, please ‘stick your neck out’ and do the math you describe. In what year (on Yom kippur) would the trumpet be blown announcing the Jubilee?
My calculations put the event in 2025: https://markabsher.blogspot.com/2022/04/70th-jubilee-october-12-2024-is-it.html?m=1
Yes, you may be correct. I’ll study this and update my article accordingly.
BTW, your article mentions Rosh Hashana, which is a non-Biblical (but popular) Jewish tradition. I originally shared the same view myself, but then a comment from ‘Colc’ on 12/22/2021 made me question this assumption and change my article.
Also, the BC-to-AD calculator link in your article is now obsolete. Here’s a suggested replacement: https://www.omnicalculator.com/everyday-life/bc-to-ad
This would be my recent understanding concerning Daniels 70 weeks. It does pertain to the Jubilee cycle.
Daniel 12:4
4But as for you, Daniel, keep these words secret and seal up the book until the end of time; many will roam about, and knowledge will increase.”
Not until humans were able to roam across the face of the earth (possibly airplanes) and have increased access to knowledge(possibly internet) could this be unsealed.
Proverbs 25:2
It is the Glory of God to conceal a matter.
The 70 weeks doesn’t speak of Jesus. This https://biblehub.com/hebrew/4899.htm word is only translated as Messiah in Daniel chapter 9. Every single other time it is translated as only anointed (ones). The ESV does a good job.
Daniel 9:25-27 ESV
25Know therefore and understand that from the going out of the word to restore and build Jerusalem to the coming of an anointed one, a prince, there shall be seven weeks.
(This is from the birth of the prince until the decree to rebuild Jerusalem) it runs with a Jubilee cycle. It is demonstrated in the feast of weeks, when the 2 barley loaves with leaven are offered. In the 50th year of the prince, on the 8th day, it will mark the year of jubilee. The day of Pentecost was a foreshadowing of this. It marks the beginning of the final restoration of all things. The first 7 weeks in Daniels 70 weeks are years.
Daniel 9:25 cont. ESV
Then for sixty-two weeks it shall be built again with squares and moat, but in a troubled time.
Then after this, 62 weeks (of days, or weeks, not years), it will be built. After this, an anointed one (Cyrus of this era), will be cutoff.
Isaiah 44 and 45 was not fulfilled by Cyrus of Persia. The city was in ruins until the time of king Artexerxes. Here is the anointed one that is cut off by the Kingdom that comes immediately preceding the final week.
Isaiah 45:1
1This is what the LORD says to Cyrus His anointed,
Whom I have taken by the right hand,
To subdue nations before him
And [a]to undo the weapons belt on the waist of kings;
To open doors before him so that gates will not be shut:
26And after the sixty-two weeks, an anointed one shall be cut off and shall have nothing. And the people of the prince who is to come shall destroy the city and the sanctuary. Itsf end shall come with a flood, and to the end there shall be war. Desolations are decreed. 27And he shall make a strong covenant with many for one week,g and for half of the week he shall put an end to sacrifice and offering. And on the wing of abominations shall come one who makes desolate, until the decreed end is poured out on the desolator.”
Here is the decree to rebuild the city (Daniel 9:25) It is found in Isaiah 44:28, this was never fulfilled
And I will make your rivers dry up.
28“It is I who says of Cyrus, ‘He is My shepherd,
And he will carry out all My desire.’
And [u]he says of Jerusalem, ‘She will be built,’
And of the temple, ‘[v]Your foundation will be laid.’”
Cyrus of Persia never made a decree to build the city. Only to build the temple. If there had been a decree to rebuild the city, the exiles would have told Artexerxes, when they were forced by arms to stop Ezra 4:12-14, 4:19-23
“To King Artaxerxes: Your servants, the men of the region beyond the Euphrates River; and now 12let it be known to the king that the Jews who came up from you have come to us at Jerusalem; they are rebuilding the rebellious and evil city and are finishing the walls and repairing the foundations. 13Now let it be known to the king, that if that city is rebuilt and the walls are finished, they will not pay tribute, custom tax, or toll, and it will [h]be detrimental to the revenue of the kings.
The city was never built by Cyrus of Persia. Nor was any decree ever given by Cyrus. He was and is a revered figure in a Persian history. And had there been a decree a quick mention of the record books and this below never would’ve happened.
19And a decree has been [k]issued by me, and a search has been conducted and it has been discovered that that city has risen up against the kings in past days, and that rebellion and revolt have been perpetrated in it, 20that mighty kings have [l]ruled over Jerusalem, governing all the provinces beyond the Euphrates River, and that tribute, custom tax, and toll were paid to them. 21Now issue a decree to make those men stop work, so that this city will not be rebuilt until a decree is issued by me. 22And beware of being negligent in carrying out this matter; why should there be great damage, to the detriment of the kings?”
23Then as soon as the copy of King Artaxerxes’ decree was read before Rehum and Shimshai the scribe and their colleagues, they went in a hurry to Jerusalem to the Jews and stopped them by military force.
Attempts to prevent the Jews from building the temple were also made in the second year of Darius. But guess what? They mentioned the decree of Cyrus to rebuild the temple. And Darius not only helped fund it, but also threatened to kill anyone who hindered their work.
Ezra 6:2-8
1Then King Darius issued a decree, and a search was conducted in the [a]archives, where the treasures were stored in Babylon. 2And in [b]Ecbatana, in the fortress which is in the province of Media, a scroll was found; and the following was written in it: “Memorandum— 3In the first year of King Cyrus, Cyrus the king issued a decree: ‘Concerning the house of God in Jerusalem, let the [c]temple, the place where sacrifices are offered, be rebuilt, and let [d]its foundations be repaired, its height being [e]sixty cubits and its width sixty cubits, 4with three layers of large stones and [f]one layer of timber. And the cost is to be paid from the [g]royal treasury. 5Also the gold and silver utensils of the house of God, which Nebuchadnezzar took from the temple in Jerusalem and brought to Babylon, are to be returned and [h]brought to their places in the temple in Jerusalem; and you shall put them in the house of God.’
6“Now as for you, Tattenai, governor of the province beyond the Euphrates River, Shethar-bozenai, and [i]your colleagues, the officials of the provinces beyond the River, [j]stay away from there. 7Leave that work on the house of God alone; let the governor of the Jews and the elders of the Jews rebuild that house of God on its site.
Below is the decree of Cyrus Persia
Ezra 1:2 the decree of Cyrus…temple only
2“This is what Cyrus king of Persia says: ‘The LORD, the God of heaven, has given me all the kingdoms of the earth, and He has appointed me to rebuild for Him a house in Jerusalem, which is in Judah.
Cyrus of Persia never built Jerusalem this is the city being restored below, in troubled times (Daniel 9:25-26) it is after the 62 weeks (not weeks of years). Then the anointed Cyrus will be cutoff.
Isaiah 45:13 speaking of Cyrus
And I [m]ordained all their [n]lights.
13“I have stirred him in righteousness,
And I will make all his ways smooth.
He will build My city and let My exiles go free,
Without any payment or reward,” says the LORD of armies.
Historically, After the foundation of the second temple was laid the building on the house was ceased. They were never able to touch the city during the reign of Cyrus.
Ezra 4:4
4Then the people of the land [a]discouraged the people of Judah, and frightened them from building, 5and bribed advisers against them to frustrate their advice all the days of Cyrus king of Persia, even until the reign of Darius king of Persia.
Below, it is very clear that the city is still desolate and in ruins, even in the days of Nehemiah.
Nehemiah 2:3-5
3And I said to the king, “May the king live forever. Why should my face not be sad when the city, the [a]site of my fathers’ tombs, is desolate and its gates have been consumed by fire?” 4Then the king said to me, “[b]What would you request?” So I prayed to the God of heaven. 5Then I said to the king, “If it pleases the king, and if your servant has found favor before you, I request that you send me to Judah, to the city of my fathers’ tombs, that I may rebuild it.”
Isaiah 45:1
1This is what the LORD says to Cyrus His anointed,
Whom I have taken by the right hand,
To subdue nations before him
And [a]to undo the weapons belt on the waist of kings;
To open doors before him so that gates will not be shut:
The LORD will use the endtime Cyrus to overthrow the nations and royal thrones. Then he issues the decree, then rebuilds the city and allows the second exodus.
Isaiah 45:13 again
Isaiah 45:13 speaking of Cyrus
And I [m]ordained all their [n]lights.
13“I have stirred him in righteousness,
And I will make all his ways smooth.
He will build My city and let My exiles go free,
Without any payment or reward,” says the LORD of armies.
Next major prophetic event below
Haggai 2:21-23
21“Speak to Zerubbabel governor of Judah, saying, ‘I am going to shake the heavens and the earth. 22And I will overthrow the thrones of kingdoms and destroy the power of the kingdoms of the [v]nations; and I will overthrow the chariots and their riders, and the horses and their riders will go down, every one by the sword of another.’ 23‘On that day,’ declares the LORD of armies, ‘I will take you, Zerubbabel, son of Shealtiel, My servant,’ declares the LORD, ‘and I will make you like a [w]signet ring, for I have chosen you,’” declares the LORD of armies.
He is prince of (restored) Judah, 2 sticks are merged into Judah. No longer is there Ephraim and Judah but only 1-Judah.
This all happens in the fall and likely this fall.
Beginning in late August things might begin to escalate. September 26, October 7-8, if it’s this year, watch for war.
Furthermore, Cyrus of Persia never subdued Egypt. It was his son Cambyses 5 years after Cyrus was gone, who had success in the campaigns against Egypt.
Isaiah 45:14 speaking of Cyrus
14This is what the LORD says:
“The [o]products of Egypt and the merchandise of [p]Cush
And the Sabeans, men of stature,
Will come over to you and will be yours;
They will walk behind you, they will come over in chains
And will bow down to you;
They will plead with you:
Im trying to see things from a different perspective in these days. To me, it seems a little odd that 69 weeks would be fulfilled and then there’d be 2000 year gap until the final week. The prophecies of Daniel, I believe, are now being “unsealed”.
Blessings!
Jon – You said – To me, it seems a little odd that 69 weeks would be fulfilled and then there’d be 2000 year gap until the final week. This is not only odd – it is a mathenatical impossibility. If the 70th week does not follow the 69th week – then it could not possibly be the 70th week. This is pre-school math
Shalom sir,
I am a Messianic Jew filled by the Spirit of Yahweh to restore accurate Jewish History, Missing Jewish History, Jewish Chronology, Yaweh’s Clock, 70 – Weeks Prophecy, and so on (1 Cor. 2:10-15; 12:1-31; Rom. 8:9-39). 509th Sabbatical Year = 9th Apr., CE 2024 to 29th Mar., CE 2025. 73rd Jubilee Year = 8th to 9th Oct., CE 2038. For proof, please study under Yahweh’s Clock at http://www.yhwhcalendar49.com.
I follow all the Appointed times of Yahweh. I spent 31 full years calculating all the Sabbatical Years, Jubilee Years, the beginning of each Yahwhe’s Synodic Month, Extra Months, and so on from the beginning to CE 2136. I visited your website and I am inspired to share the Word of YHWH according to John 8:39-49; Gal. 2:1-10; 2 Cor. 12:18; 13:8, John 13:34-35, 17:20-21; 1 John 2:19-29 etc., so please do visit www dot yhwhcalendar49 dot com and www dot apostolicfoundation dot com because YHWH revealed to me His Calendar Formula written in Leviticus 25:8-9. I fed all the data from the beginning to CE 2136 on our website.
The JEWISH NATION/People is misled by a fake calendar (19/50 – Year Cycle) since CE 135/1948. Independence Day of Israel is on the 6th Sivan but not on the 5th Zif. The Extra Month occurs according to Luni Solar Difference Per Month only but not according to Rabbi’s calculation (At the end of Adar). The Jewish nation and the World are misled by Satan under the veil of false Calendars such as the Present Jewish or Hebrew Luni Solar calendar (19/50) or Gregorian calendar or Demonic Lunar Sabbath calendar or Devilish Enochian calendar and so on (Col. 2:8; 2 Tim. 4:1-4). I solved Jewish History Puzzle/Jewish Calendar Puzzle under SEARCH AND FIND on our website. I am willing to hear from you according to – Ephesians 1:1-14; Romans 11:13-23 etcetera.
Thank You.
Bro. Manasseh
Manasseh,
Using your calendar what are the Leviticus 23 moedim dates during 2023 and 2024?
From your studies, do you have any insights about sequence or timing of end time events?
Thanks,
Tom
Sir, the end of the 7 year sabbatical cycle is the year and time of release.
Deuteronomy 15:1-2
1“At the end of every seven years you shall [a]grant a release of debts. 2And this is the regulation for the release of debts: every creditor is to forgive what he has loaned to his neighbor; he shall not require it of his neighbor and his brother, because the LORD’S release has been proclaimed.
It is a release of both debts and of slaves. The end of the 49th year, however signals a return of the captives.
15:12-13
12“If your fellow countryman, a Hebrew man or woman, is sold to you, then he shall serve you for six years, but in the seventh year you shall set him [j]free. 13And when you set him [k]free, you shall not send him away empty-handed. 14You shall give generously to him from you
The END of the year as it relates to the Jubilee/sabbatical years/release of slaves is at the feast of tabernacles. It is the END of the year, and it is the TIME of the release of debts/slaves.
Deuteronomy 31:10-11
10Then Moses commanded them, saying, “At the end of every seven years, at the time of the year of the release of debts, at the Feast of Booths, 11when all Israel comes to appear before the LORD your God at the place which He will choose, you shall read this Law before all Israel [b]so that they hear it.
Above^^^ the end of the year is at the the feast of booths. It is also the exact time that the slaves are freed.
The rams horn is blown at the end of the day of atonement and the time of release is at the feast of tabernacles. But it would be after the feast is concluded, as this is a transition period. A convocation of the people.
Leviticus 25:9-10
9You shall then sound a ram’s horn [b]abroad on the tenth day of the seventh month; on the Day of Atonement you shall sound a horn all through your land. 10So you shall consecrate the fiftieth year and proclaim [c]a release throughout the land to all its inhabitants. It shall be a jubilee for you, [d]and each of you shall return to his own property, [e]and each of you shall return to his family
The slaves are released after tabernacles, which they are required to attend. After which “each of you shall return to his own property”
1 Kings 8:66
66On the eighth day he dismissed the people, and they blessed the king. Then they went to their tents joyful and with happy hearts for all the goodness that the LORD had [ao]shown to David His servant, and to Israel His people.
The heavenly rams horn, the trumpet in Zion, should sound on the day of atonement 2023.
Unlike the rams horn at Mount Sinai which only shook the earth, this will shake both heaven and earth.
Exodus 19:13,16-18
13No hand shall touch him, but he shall certainly be stoned or [d]shot through; whether animal or person, the violator shall not live.’ When the ram’s horn sounds a long blast, they shall come up to the mountain.”
16-18
16So it came about on the third day, when it was morning, that there were [e]thunder and lightning flashes and a thick cloud over the mountain and a very loud trumpet sound, so that all the people who were in the camp trembled. 17And Moses brought the people out of the camp to meet God, and they stood at the [f]foot of the mountain.
18Now Mount Sinai was all in smoke because the LORD descended upon it in fire; and its smoke ascended like the smoke of a furnace, and the entire mountain [g]quaked violently.
Above^^was around the time of Shavuot
And as it was at Pentecost the people had their first chance. Israel played the harlot and rejected the LORD, and made the golden calf. Israel also mostly rejected the Lord after Pentecost. The second set tablets, a second chance, were traditionally thought to have been given on the Day of Atonement. A second chance then, and a second chance for the inhabitants of the earth in this day and age. This is not the rapture, it is the beginning of the “times of the restoration of all things”.
First the calendar and the Jubilee cycle will be restored
Jon, I just read many articles on your website https://www.bible-prophecy-for-the-remnant.net and found them very interesting. I agree with most of it, with no disagreement on things that matter.
I have some questions regarding your comments on my website:
1. You make a distinction between slaves (7th year) and captives (50th year). Regarding the application of these prophecies to people alive today, who do you think are today’s slaves and who are captives?
2. In your comment you said the calendar will be restored. On your website you have an article about the elites replacing the Gregorian calendar, and the physical restoration of a 360-day year, but I have the impression that in your comment you’re referring to God restoring His true calendar. If that’s correct, what do you think is God’s calendar? FYI: my opinion is in this article: https://standinfaith.org/gods-calendar/
3. Who will be the recipients of the “second chance for the inhabitants of the earth”? Are they the mortal survivors of the great tribulation who enter the millennium, to be ruled with a rod of iron?
4. Your website has a lot of interesting interpretations about the time between now and the Millennium. I’d be interested in your opinion regarding the Biblical sequence of end-time events, perhaps as an article on your website. I’ve published mine here: https://standinfaith.org/sequence-of-end-time-events/
Yes sir, I think there was a mistake on the website. That is not my website.
In a nutshell, it is my understanding that the heavens have received the Lord, until the “times of the restoration of all things” this based on Acts 3:19-21
Jesus has been received into the heavens until the times of the restoration of ALL things
Acts 3:19-21
19Therefore repent and return, so that your sins may be wiped away, in order that times of refreshing may come from the presence of the Lord; 20and that He may send Jesus, the [i]Christ appointed for you, 21whom heaven must receive until the [j]period of restoration of all things, about which God spoke by the mouths of His holy prophets from ancient times.
Below, The disciples understanding the prophecies of the OT were expecting the kingdom to be restored to Israel, but they did not fully understand the timing, as that had yet to be revealed.
Acts 1:6-7
6So, when they had come together, they began asking Him, saying, “Lord, is it at this time that You are restoring the kingdom to Israel?” 7But He said to them, “It is not for you to know periods of time or appointed times which the Father has set by His own authority;
Therefore we must understand before Jesus had gone to the cross and even after His ascension things were not fully restored, and still Are not fully restored. As the heavens receive Him (Jesus) until the times restoration of all things. Are we in the “times of the restoration of all things”? Not quite yet.
What are some things needed? Feel free to add. Below are some of the things which happen during the times of the restoration of all things.
# 1 the hearts children (sons) must be returned (restored) to the fathers
#2 the tribes of Israel must be restored into the land
#3 counselors and judges, the kingdom is part of restoration of the kingdom (Isaiah 1:25-26)
#4 restoration of the jubilee cycle, as this is completely lost
# 5 restoration of the calendar as there is currently much confusion
In terms of the distinction between captives and slaves, it was unintended. Here’s the thing though, according to Romans chapter 11:16-27, we believers are all the house/tree of Israel. We are either broken off the Gentile tree and grafted in, or we are natural born, and remain by coming to faith In Christ. If we are broken, by our unbelief off that natural tree, we will be judged accordingly. In the same manner if we remain on that Gentile, or wild olive tree we will be judged, because of our unbelief. It’s all about faith and repentance through what Jesus did for us. Bottom line their are lost tribes that we can speculate about, only the LORD truly knows. Yet regardless, we are all of the house or Israel, if He Is our Lord.
But, here is the distinction I can make, if we are rejecting Christ, we are slaves, We are slaves to sin. First and foremost, we need our hearts restored, this is the spiritual aspect of this time of Jubilee. A beginning of a restoration of the hearts of the sons to the Fathers, as the world has never seen. On the other hand, If we have been purified by the blood of Yeshua, we are merely captives, having not yet been physically restored. Did you know that this describes a restoration into the land.
Revelation 12:13-14
13And when the dragon saw that he was thrown down to the earth, he persecuted the woman who gave birth to the male Child. 14But the two wings of the great eagle were given to the woman, so that she could fly into the wilderness to her place, where she *was nourished for a time, times, and half a time, away from the presence of the serpent.
satan comes to persecute Israel but she is protected in her place. She is restored into her land. The 2 wings of an eagle are the Lord bringing them out of captivity, as He did from Egypt.
Exodus 19:4-6
4‘You yourselves have seen what I did to the Egyptians, and how I carried you on eagles’ wings, and brought you to Myself. 5Now then, if you will indeed obey My voice and keep My covenant, then you shall be My [b]own possession among all the peoples, for all the earth is Mine; 6and you shall be to Me a kingdom of priests and a holy nation.’ These are the words that you shall speak to the sons of Israel.”
And again in
Deuteronomy 32:11-12
11“As an eagle stirs up its nest,
And hovers over its young,
He spread His wings, He caught them,
He carried them on His pinions.
12“The LORD alone guided him,
And there was no foreign god with him.
The children of Egypt were not swooped up by angels, but rather guided and taken out by outstretched Arm of the LORD. Cloud by day, Fire by night. Those are the wings of the great eagle the LORD.
He will once again bring purified natural Israel to Himself, this includes, believing Gentiles this time, under the new covenant, both spiritually turning hearts and physically by restoring the land. ALL things must be restored
Jeremiah 23:7-8
7“Therefore behold, the days are coming,” declares the LORD, “when they will no longer say, ‘As the LORD lives, who brought the sons of Israel up from the land of Egypt,’ 8but, ‘As the LORD lives, who brought up and led the descendants of the household of Israel back from the north land and from all the countries where I had driven them.’ Then they will live on their own soil.”
Unfulfilled ^^^^^
But the physical restoration is all throughout the OT.
Zech 2:4, 10:6, Ezekiel 28, 36 22-30, 37:21-23 39: 25-39, Isaiah 11: 11-15, 49 :6-8, Jeremiah 30:9-11, Deuteronomy 30:1-6
And that’s just a few. A bringing back, greater than Egypt, from all four corners.
My timing comes partially from the book of Haggai. But this understanding of Haggai stems from a prophetic vision (not my vision) that was shared with me 20 years ago. It confirmed my understanding of Zechariah 4, and is entirely biblically backed.
The beginning of the restoration of all things begins at the end of the feast of tabernacles. It will mark a unique time of jubilee, both spiritual and physical. An outpouring of the Spirit, during a time of great distress, to allow us to succeed in our work, the work of the LORD. When this happens, the Jubilee cycle will be restored. I strongly believe it will be this year. First the Lord will shake the heavens and the earth and overthrow the thrones of the kingdoms of the nations.
John 7:37-39
37Now on the last day, the great day of the feast, Jesus stood and cried out, saying, “If anyone is thirsty, [h]let him come to Me and drink. 38The one who believes in Me, as the Scripture said, ‘[i]From his innermost being will flow rivers of living water.’” 39But this He said in reference to the Spirit, whom those who believed in Him were to receive; for the Spirit was not yet given, because Jesus was not yet glorified.
The second chance is for the “house of Israel” most importantly to have their hearts restored to the Father. The Lord is received by heavens until certain things transpire.
Matthew 17:11-12
11And He answered and said, “Elijah is coming and will restore all things;
I know from the final message in Haggai, that others will be involved in this work above. And below is an allusion as to how Elijah will return again. In the same manner that JTB was Elijah.
12but I say to you that Elijah already came, and they did not recognize him, but did [d]to him whatever they wanted. So also the Son of Man is going to suffer [e]at their hands.”
In terms of the calendar, here is my understanding
It is the sun and the moon that determine the mowadim, that is appointed times…in English “seasons”.
Genesis 1:14
14Then God said, “Let there be [s]lights in the [t]expanse of the heavens to separate the day from the night, and they shall [u]serve as signs and for SEASONS, and for days and years;
the first month is ABIB
Exodus 12:1
1Now the LORD said to Moses and Aaron in the land of [a]Egypt, 2“This month shall be the beginning of months for you; it is to be the first month of the year for you.
Deuteronomy 16:1
1“Observe the month of Abib and [a]celebrate the Passover to the LORD your God, for in the month of Abib the LORD your God brought you out of Egypt by night.
Exodus 9:30-32
30But as for you and your servants, I know that you do not yet [t]fear [u]the LORD God.” 31(Now the flax and the barley were [v]ruined, for the barley was in the ear and the flax was in bud. 32But the wheat and the spelt were not [w]ruined, for they ripen late.)
Above described the crops ruined by the hail the Lord brought upon Egypt. The Barley was ruined because in was ABIB (in the ear) days before the Exodus of Israel (Passover). Therefore, we know this is around late winter.
We know from the Bible that it is the sun and the moon that determine the appointed times. We also know that the year begins around the time the Barley is in the ear (Abib). First new moon sighting in the spring in Israel, is the first day of Abib
Below we see the moon determines the days, so we know the mowadim (appointed times)
Psalm 114:19
19He made the moon for the seasons;
The sun knows the place of its setting.
Psalms 81:3
Sound the ram’s horn at the New Moon, and at the full moon on the day of our Feast..
The word for month/moon is Chodesh
https://biblehub.com/hebrew/2320.htm
It originated from the word Chadash
https://biblehub.com/hebrew/2318.htm
It means to repair or renew
When the Bible gives the day—- ex. The 7 day of the 4 Chodesh, that count starts from the renewal of its cycle.
The 7 day of the 4th new moon of the year.
Ex. On the 10th day of the 7th new moon (Chodesh)
Pay attention to the cycle of the moon. At the end of its cycle it is waning in the east sky before dawn. Then it disappears and Renews itself 3-4 days (out of human sight), later at sundown in the western sky.
The renewing Chadash of the moon occurs when the cycle begins. It starts its renewal in the entirely different direction of the sky and works its way back getting larger to smaller.
So it my understanding, that it is according to the new moon being sighted in Jerusalem.
Fulfilling the moon aspect of Genesis 1:14
And when the sun passes the equinox in spring. When the barley harvest is
That fulfills the sun part of Genesis 1:14
The sun and the moon for mowadim
The Barley harvest doesn’t control the mowadim, only the sun and the moon.
The Barley would likely always be ABIB, if the people obeyed the LORD. HE held back the rain for 3 1/2 years in the times of Elijah, there was no barley in the ear. Yet the years continue. So famine was mostly due to disobedience
1 Kings 8:35
5“When the heavens are shut up and there is no rain because they have sinned against You, and they pray toward this place and praise Your name, and turn from their sin when You afflict them,
Thanks for all the details. Very interesting!
Here is the problem I see with the 49 year Jubilee cycle, as opposed to the 50 year cycle. In Leviticus 25:3-6 the command is given to work, sow, prune gather for years 1-6-
3For six years you shall sow your field, and for six years you shall prune your vineyard and gather in its produce, 4but during the seventh year the land shall have a Sabbath rest, a Sabbath to the LORD; you shall not sow your field nor prune your vineyard. 5You shall not reap your harvest’s [a]aftergrowth, and you shall not gather your grapes of untrimmed vines; the land shall have a sabbatical year.
As you can see, on the first year of the cycle the Lord gives directions to work on that year. In stark contrast to that, the 50th year is consecrated, and absolutely forbidden to work. So the 50th year cannot overlap with the first year.
8‘You are also to count off seven Sabbaths of years for yourself, seven times seven years, so that you have the time of the seven Sabbaths of years, that is, forty-nine years. 9You shall then sound a ram’s horn [b]abroad on the tenth day of the seventh month; on the Day of Atonement you shall sound a horn all through your land. 10So you shall consecrate the fiftieth year and proclaim [c]a release throughout the land to all its inhabitants. It shall be a jubilee for you, [d]and each of you shall return to his own property, [e]and each of you shall return to his family. 11You shall have the fiftieth year as a jubilee; you shall not sow, nor harvest its aftergrowth, nor gather grapes from its untrimmed vines. 12For it is a jubilee; it shall be holy to you. You shall eat its produce from the field.
Above we see that the 50th year can not be the first year, because the mandate is to work on the first year, whereas work is forbidden on the 50th. Therefore they can not overlap. The Lord even hints to provision for these 3 years letting us know that produce will be provided for years 49,50 and 1.
Leviticus 25:20-22
20But if you say, “What are we going to eat in the seventh year if we do not sow nor gather in our produce?” 21then I will so order My blessing for you in the sixth year that it will bring forth the produce for three years. 22When you are sowing the eighth year, you can still eat old things from the produce, eating the old until the ninth year when its produce comes in.
Above we see that the Lord will provide until the land renders crops in the in first year of the next cycle, which would be 50 + 1. If the last sowing was in the 48th year. The Lord has promised to provide.
Bottom line the 50th year must be the 50th year. And the first year the first year
But the year of Jubilee seems to fit perfectly this year, as the last announcement occurred on the day of atonement 1973, when Israel miraculously defeated Syria in the Golan. And ultimately won the Yom Kippur war
I realize it’s confusing to understand the 50th year is the 1st year of the next 49-year cycle. That’s why I included a link to this video in my article. Watch it and let me know what you think afterward. http://endtimepilgrim.org/yoj.htm
Yes that is an interesting video
Here’s what I recently found
The jubilee year begins immediately after the message in Haggai 2:1-9 comes on the 7th day of tabernacles. After the Lord overthrows the kingdoms of the nations Haggai 2:30-23.
So the 8th day or the day after begins the year of Jubilee. Haggai 2:1-9, is not a dual prophecy it is entirely prophetic and it is a proclamation of the Day Of the LORD, and a call to work. It is the end of the year of release. After the overthrow it will pave the way for the restoration of all things
Deuteronomy 15:1
1“At the end of every seven years you shall [a]grant a release of debts.
Deuteronomy 31:10
10Then Moses commanded them, saying, “At the end of every seven years, at the time of the year of the release of debts, at the Feast of Booths,
The 7th day of tabernacle’s in Haggai 2:1-9 will be the 7 day of Sukkot, in the 7th month, of the 7 year, of the 7th sabbatical cycle (49th year and year of release) immediately preceding the year of Jubilee. This is how the LORD will set things straight. Both the calendar and the jubilee cycle, it is the beginning of the restoration of all things.
Remember Acts 3:19-21? The heavens have received Jesus until the restoration of ALL things
Hebrew 12:26 quotes Haggai 2:6 as an unfulfilled event and is the final shaking. Believe me that is entirely unfulfilled and speaks of rebuilding and regathering the “house” of Jacob/ Israel
The spiritual temple, the church. Grafted and natural who return their hearts to the Fathers. In Haggai there are 2 separate and distinct shaking. The first is the war Haggai 2:20-23 the final is the day of the Lord 2:6 “Once again I will shake” the war comes in the fall.
We will never know by counting, it is after the 49th year of release when He shakes the heavens and earth and overthrows the kingdoms of the nations.
Regarding the 50-year Jubilee cycle you might want to watch this video.

Sir, you come to the same year as the next Sabbath or even Jubilee as I do based on another starting point. In Luke 4, we are told that our Lord Jesus went to the Synagoge and quoted from Isaiah 61. Isaiah 61 seems to refer to a Jubilee or at least to a Sabbath year. Then our Lord closed the scroll, sat down and said, I paraphrase, now you see this prophecy fulfilled. This could imply that the beginning of the Lord’s ministry was in fall A.D. 28. in a Sabbath year or even in a Jubilee. If one starts calculating with this year as a basis one ends up in 2023/2024 as another Sabbath year. If anyone wants to study the details I’ d like to humbly refer to my article on https://www.bible-prophecy-for-the-remnant.net/1150923_the-jubilee-of-the-antichrist with the title “The Jubilee of the Antichrist”. Yet, if Jesus began His ministry in fall of A.D. 28 then the Tishri-Tishri calculation seems to make more sense to me than the Nisan-Nisan apporach for a Jubilee. Nice to have your website to discuss those questions with brethren.
In reply to Isaiah 61, luke 4:16-21 account of Jesus reading from the scroll of Isaiah he stopped in the middle of the 2nd verse Isa 61:2 He did not read; and the day of vengeance of our God, and to comfort all who mourn. When he comes again he will fulfill the rest of that chapter. thanks for you info!! This is a great article

I would say this was possibly the start of a jubilee year when Jesus gave this proclamation on the 8th day of tabernacles. And a foreshadowed of what will happen on the 7-8 day of tabernacles.
John 7:37-39
37Now on the last day, the great day of the feast, Jesus stood and cried out, saying, “If anyone is thirsty, [h]let him come to Me and drink. 38The one who believes in Me, as the Scripture said, ‘[i]From his innermost being will flow rivers of living water.’” 39But this He said in reference to the Spirit, whom those who believed in Him were to receive; for the Spirit was not yet given, because Jesus was not yet glorified.
Yes, the end of the agricultural year, which determines the Jubilee cycle and years of release end at the feast of booths. Then the next year either begins on the 8th day or the day after. After the feast, the people would be released of their debts, freed from bondage of servitude, and return to their inheritance. The feast of tabernacles could be seen as a transition period between the end and beginning of the year.
Deuteronomy 31:10
10Then Moses commanded them, saying, “At the end of every seven years, at the time of the year of the release of debts, at the Feast of Booths,
This message is a completely veiled message in Haggai 2:1-9. It is entirely prophetic and comes on the last days of the 49th year, at the time of the year of release. It Will immediately precede the year of Jubilee. The people in this message are a mopheth (symbolic of people to come). It is a call to work and purify the “house of Israel” “spiritual temple” It is also a proclamation of the day of the LORD.
1On the twenty-first of the seventh month, the word of the LORD came by Haggai the prophet, saying, 2“Speak now to Zerubbabel the son of Shealtiel, governor of Judah, and to Joshua the son of Jehozadak, the high priest, and to the remnant of the people, saying, 3‘Who is left among you who saw this [a]temple in its former glory? And how do you see it now? [b]Does it not seem to you like nothing [c]in comparison? 4But now [d]take courage, Zerubbabel,’ declares the LORD, ‘take courage also, Joshua son of Jehozadak, the high priest, and all you people of the land take courage,’ declares the LORD, ‘and work; for I am with you,’ declares the LORD of armies. 5‘As for the [e]promise which I [f]made you when you came out of Egypt, [g]My Spirit remains in your midst; do not fear!’ 6For this is what the LORD of armies says: ‘Once more [h]in a little while, I am going to shake the heavens and the earth, the sea also and the dry land. 7I will shake all the nations; and [i]they will come with the wealth of all nations, and I will fill this house with glory,’ says the LORD of armies. 8‘The silver is Mine and the gold is Mine,’ declares the LORD of armies. 9‘The latter glory of this house will be greater than the former,’ says the LORD of armies, ‘and in this place I will give peace,’ declares the LORD of armies.”
But the events of Haggai 2:21-23 must occur immediately preceding this message. Then a restoration of the jubilee cycle and the calendar will be completed. But ALL things must still be restored
There is a very interesting book by Jonathan Cahn on this topic (“The Oracle – The Jubilean Mysteries Unveiled”). He writes in a quasi-fictional style, but his underlying facts seem solid. He points to the 50-year cycle starting in 1867 when Mark Twain visited the holy land (and it was surveyed), followed in 1917 when the British took the land from the Turks, followed in 1967 when the Jews took Jerusalem, followed in 2017 when President Trump recognized Jerusalem as the capital of Israel. He also discusses the appointed readings from the Torah on the specific dates the events of each year occurred. While there is room for debate on the overall topic, his work seems a solid contribution.
I find all of these theories compelling, and very honestly we’ve been looking at some ourselves, certainly it seems that Yeshua will return on the FOT and it seems a very near FOT at that, but having said that I’m confused about how anyone can be so certain about exact times or dates considering Messiah Himself said that nobody knows, not the angels in Heaven nor He Himself, but only the Father knows the time of His return. Perhaps we’re better off spending time seeking to do as Messiah taught us and less time trying to pin down a date known only to The Father.
Michelle,
I think I agree with everything you said. In fact, I just published a Yom Teruah (FOT) article you’ll want to read. https://standinfaith.org/yom-teruah/
Regarding the ‘nobody knows the day or hour’ question… In the parable of the fig tree (Mt 24:32) Yeshua said His disciples should be aware of the season of His coming. And, He strongly rebuked the Jews because they did not recognize the season of their visitation (Lk 19:44). So, there is definite scriptural support that we should know what season we’re in spiritually.
Obviously, knowing the season isn’t as specific as knowing the day or hour. But, as I wrote in my FOT article, there are reasons why we can be fairly sure (not 100%) that Yeshua will ‘rapture’ His disciples on a future FOT. But that doesn’t tell us the year, or even the day. Here’s why: I subscribe to the Zadokite solar calendar, so I celebrated the FOT on 9/21. Most Jewish and Messianic believers are on the lunar calendar, so they celebrate FOT from 9/25-27. Others follow an Enochian calendar.
I think both solar and lunar calendar proponents have strong arguments, so I’m not settled about which calendar is correct. I wrote a detailed article about it here: https://standinfaith.org/gods-calendar/ The solar calendar makes more sense to me, but if the lunar calendar is Babylonian why didn’t Yeshua mention it? I must conclude that either the lunar calendar is correct, after all, or it didn’t matter to Him…
While I love to dig for gold nuggets of eschatological revelation, I one-hundred percent agree with your bottom line. Our first priority is to do as Messiah taught us. If we fail there, all the head-knowledge in the world is useless.

Some scholars state that 2022 is the 70th year of Jubilee as well as a Shimita (spelling?). Why is there a discrepancy?
Rick,
Bible scholars are like politicians, in that you can find one to support any idea or philosophy. But there’s only one truth.
Until yesterday I never heard anyone say that 2022 is the 70th year of Jubilee as well as a Shmita year. Then, yesterday, in Monte Judah’s Messianic World Update (https://www.messianicworldupdate.com) for May 6, 2022 (starting at the 10:45 mark) he said he expects many evangelical teachers will be teaching that 2022 is a Jubilee year, and they’ll get many professing Christians to fervently hope in a pre-tribulation rapture before October 10th, which he says is the 2022 Day of Atonement (Yom Kippur) when the 2022 Jubilee would be announced.
In his May 6th update, Monte Judah warned that “when this doesn’t happen” there will be a “great falling away” (2 Thessalonians 2:3) among professing Christians who fervently hoped for a pre-trib rapture before 10/10/2022.
When the disciples asked Jesus about the end times, His first statement was, “See to it that no one deceives you.” (Mt 24:4, Mk 13:5) My article above provides much evidence for a possible 2024 Jubilee year. If you know of any evidence for a 2022 Jubilee year, please feel free to provide it in a reply comment. Otherwise, unless there’s valid evidence supporting a 2022 Jubilee year, I don’t think it’s credible.
Finally, if you’re interested in what I believe about the rapture, read https://standinfaith.org/the-first-rapture-of-the-church
The civil year doesn’t start on Nissan 1. Jewish new year is on Tishrei 1 (Feast of Trumpets, Rosh Hashanah) and has been since creation.
Nissan 1 is the first month of our spiritual calendar given on Sanai; but this isn’t how the year is calculated.
Year 5782÷49=118
Year 5783 Is the JUBILEE (50th)
September 25 2022 at dusk is the start of the Jubilee year, Feast of Trumpets.
Great article by the way! Just needs a little work.
Sinai***
Every seven days since the creation of the world has been Shabbat. Every seven years since the creation of the world has been the Shemittah.
If the Hebrew year is divisible by seven, then it is a shemittah year. This year, for example, is 5782 which is the 826th shemittah year since the creation of the world.
Similarly, the Jubilee is the first year of the next shemittah cycle. This has been true since creation. This year is 5782, divided by 49 equals precisely 118. So next year is the 118th Jubilee since the creation of the world.
How can the 50th year be the first year? I’m just trying to understand. In Leviticus 25:3-6 there is a directive to work on the first year.
Yet, a few verses later we see that work is absolutely forbidden on the 50th year. How can the 50th be the first?
Leviticus 25
3For six years you shall sow your field, and for six years you shall prune your vineyard and gather in its produce,
That is a directive from the Lord. How can the years overlap? I am just trying to find a biblical explanation
Jake,
1. I’m familiar with the Jewish traditions about Rosh Hashanah, but you won’t find it explicitly mentioned anywhere in the Bible. Neither does the Bible ever say that a new year starts on Tishri 1. It may have some validity, but we cannot be dogmatic about it without a scriptural foundation. With that said, I personally believe there is something true about Rosh Hashanah regarding the fulfillment of Jubilee, which will be proclaimed 10 days later–on a future Yom Kippur. For an excellent summary of the facts around Rosh Hashanah (and 3 other traditional Jewish ‘new year’ days) read: https://www.hebrew4christians.com/Holidays/Fall_Holidays/Rosh_Hashannah/Biblical/biblical.html
2. The Jewish year 5782 is not dependable as an accurate date. Again, it’s based on rabbinical tradition, and it’s widely acknowledged that it has 164 ‘missing years’. See this article for more info about this. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Missing_years_(Jewish_calendar)
Shalom brother.
Exodus 12:2. “This month shall be unto you the beginning of months: it shall be the first month of the year to you.” (Month of Nisan)
Leviticus 23:23-25: Then the LORD spoke to Moses, saying, “Speak to the children of Israel, saying: ‘In the seventh month, on the first day of the month, you shall have a sabbath-rest, a memorial of blowing of trumpets, a holy convocation.
So I believe the year actually begins on Nisan 1.
Dan, I agree. See my response to Colc’s comment.
Shalom brother.
It does indeed begin that day. They are all screwed up on their days. God said Nisan 1 was the first day to us.
Makes sense. If Jubilee will be formally announced by trumpet blasts on Yom Kippur, it makes sense the Yom Kippur war of 1973 was a Jubilee year so add 49 years and we have 2022 which is a Shemitah year.
Exactly what I am saying. According to the sighting of the moon on October 8 the proclamation would be made. The hours after that at the valley of tears where Israel miraculously drove the Syrians back at the Golan. It was reported that a line of angels drove the Syrians back. Then the shemitah and year of jubilee 2023 on day of atonement.

The whole timeline is laid out on my facebook page entitled the lies of the church. if you are interested in seeing it…if not, I dont care!!!!
Rosemary,
Regarding your comment I have two questions for you.
1. In this article I provide evidence for a 1406BC start date for the Jubilee cycle, which (according to Lev 25:2) begins when Israel enters the promised land. Your Jubilee timeline starts in 1483BC. What evidence is there that Israel entered the land in 1483BC?
2. This article goes into detail explaining why a 49-year Jubilee cycle is correct, but your timeline uses a 50-year cycle. Assuming you read my perspective and chosen to disbelieve it, why is a 50-year Jubilee cycle correct instead of a 49-year cycle?
Shalom sister,
Tom
I believe 1973 was the last Jubilee year, partly because of the Yom Kippur war. But there are other driving Factors in this. But simply put, here’s why it should be a 50 year cycle.
In Leviticus 25:3-6 the Lord gives the directive to work in the first year. Years 1-6.
1The LORD then spoke to Moses on Mount Sinai, saying, 2“Speak to the sons of Israel and say to them, ‘When you come into the land which I am going to give you, then the land shall have a Sabbath to the LORD. 3For six years you shall sow your field, and for six years you shall prune your vineyard and gather in its produce,
On the other hand in the 50th, work is expressly forbidden. Therefore 50th should not be 1st. We are at the 49th now. And the announcement for the 50th will be on atonement 2023
I have done an extensive study on the life of Jesus Christ, and scripture proves He was born on Sept. 11, 3 BC Tishri 1 (between 6:18 p.m. – 7:39 p.m.), and not when you posted. He began His preaching ministry on Sept. 20, AD 27 Tishri 1, six months after He was baptized (being not quite 30). He was crucified on Wednesday, Nisan 13, AD 30, placed in the tomb at even of the 13th, which began the 14th, and resurrected at even of the 17th, which began the 18th. He ascended into heaven 40 days after His resurrection, and then 10 days after that, the Early Rain (the first outpouring of the Holy Spirit) fell on the Early Church on May 28, AD 30 Pentecost.
Greg,
1. How and where does scripture prove Jesus was born on Sept. 11, 3 BC Tishri 1 (between 6:18 p.m. – 7:39 p.m.)?
2. How can you be sure of the Lord’s crucifixion date?
Thanks,
Tom
Greg, I was confused by your comment, since I didn’t post anything about Jesus’ birthdate in this article. But then I saw that your comment was in response to RoseMary Munro Lohman’s comment, and her list of dates, so now I understand.
Mat. 24:36 Now concerning the day and hour that no one knows, not the angels, nor the Son, but only the Father.
From my studies the seven year period begins after that day and hour. The perfect time for the lawless one to come on the scene, when those who are true believers are gone, the dead in Christ and those watching and waiting. The very fact that this 7 yr. period seems to be so close and we can see the ” writing on the wall let’s us know to look up, redemption is near, then these events happen on steroids.
We can call it the rapture factor, whatever dates it happens to coincide with, but it’s soon, very soon. Perhaps the end of the end so to speak.
God bless
Amen brother

In my studies of Daniel I found that the Hebrew of 12:11&12 does not follow the English translations. The word translated “taken away” is a Hithpael perfect which is a past tense, not future. The Septuagint is better in that it is in the aorist tense. Therefore should read “was taken away.” Rough translating it: from the time that the daily sacrifice was taken away until the abomination that makes all things desolate established is 1290 periods of time (staying consistent to chapter 9, “years.”) Given it was past, the daily sacrifice was removed by Nebuchadnezzar in 601BC. This would be your starting point. The approximate year that the abomination that makes everything desolate is established on the Temple mount would be AD 689/690. Was there an abomination established then? The Dome of the Rock (Islam). Does Islam make everything desolate? Verse 12; Blessed is he that tarries and arrives at the 1335th year. Adding that to the AD 689/690 you also arrive at 2024 or the Jubilee. So the answer to Daniel’s question in 6 & 8 of when shall the end come was answered by God, but was also hidden until the end by as God says in verse 9. So the time, times, and a half is a general answer to Daniel’s question also. From the day Daniel asked the questions in 6 & 8 it has been generally 2500 years. So, we theologians have been teaching the wrong end time scenario. I began this study as a result of 911. I read a book called “The Death of the West.” Then I realized end time prophecy was mixed up. Now we all know, “The Rest of the Story!”
Les, I just read your online 2015 sermon entitled “Daniel’s Clock” and I agree with you.
You’ll be interested in my response to Barbara’s comment that I posted (in this thread) on 12/31/21, especially the link to Ellis Skolfield’s essays about the Dome of the Rock.
I’ve recently come across some teachings that make me doubt the mainstream, traditional teachings about how Daniel’s 70th week will be fulfilled. I believe we’re in the final few years of this age, but I haven’t figured out how some of the time periods in Revelation will be fulfilled, especially Rev 11:3, 12:6, 12:14, 13:5, and 20:3. Are they literal or symbolic? For example, some believe a day represents a year. Others (like Dr. Michael Heiser) don’t believe in a literal 1000-year millennium following this age, saying 1000 years simply represents ‘a really long time.’ (I respect Dr. Heiser, but disagree with him about this.)
I’ve also seen many explanations trying to say the Two Witnesses are symbolic; e.g., they represent Jews and Christians, the Old Testament and the New Testament, etc., but I haven’t seen one that felt right to me yet. I still believe they’re two human prophets whose televised dead bodies will literally lie in the Jerusalem streets for 3.5 days until the 7th trumpet is sounded.
So, IF the numbers are literal, and IF we’re in the final 1260 days, THEN we should NOW be seeing the Two Witnesses, the Woman in the wilderness, the beast speaking blasphemies, etc. I think everyone can agree that we’re close to seeing the implementation of the ‘mark of the beast’ that will exclude the noncompliant from buying and selling.
I’d be interested to hear if you have any opinions about how the time periods (listed above) in the Book of Revelation might be being fulfilled today. If you’d rather not correspond in this comments section, feel free to email me at Tom@Standinfaith.org
Shalom brother.
I definitely think 2032 is way off. We know that He frustrated then plans of the wicked and that 2030 deadline for the agenda is near.
I would conclude that the third of the population destroyed would be prior to 2030.
I believe the Abrahamic Family House is a precedent to the third temple- which could be done in a year.
I believe it’s highly possible that the temple could be completed or started by the fall 2024 Jubilee.
At this point- I believe the tribulation may have already begun. Bear with me as I’m still trying to connect the dots here.
Interesting… I hadn’t heard about the Abrahamic Family House before. https://www.forhumanfraternity.org/abrahamic-family-house/
I also believe the tribulation may have already begun. My current perspective about the sequence and timing of end-time events is at the following link, but it’s subject to change as history unfolds. https://standinfaith.org/sequence-of-end-time-events/
We’re all trying to connect the dots.
The one that is to confirm that covenant with many will break it at the halfway point, or three and a years after. That would mean , if the 70th week began in 2017, the “abomination of desolation” of the temple would have occurred sometime in 2020. There is no temple yet for that to have happened.
Barbara, if popular evangelical beliefs about Daniel’s 70th Week are correct, then what you’re saying is true. There’s no physical temple and we didn’t ‘see’ the abomination of desolation that Jesus predicted in Mt 24:15, and that’s true.
However, just as the 1st century religious leaders were totally clueless about what God was doing during Jesus’ earthly ministry–to the point where they hated and murdered their own Messiah–I suspect the popular religious teachers in modern times will be just as clueless. I believe this is why Jesus warned us not to be deceived, prophesying “the great apostasy” would occur before the man of lawlessness is revealed. ( 2 Thess 2:3)
I’ve studied Daniel’s 70th week for many years, only to conclude that it’s a mystery and nobody can be 100% sure they understand it. In addition to traditional teachings about Daniel’s 70th Week, here are some alternative ideas worth considering:
– We may be seeing the great apostasy in today’s carnal church, and the man of lawlessness may already be on the world stage, preparing to proclaim himself god.
– The ‘temple of God’ for the last 1900+ years is the Body of Christ, so there’s no need for a Jewish temple.
– What if the antecedent of “he” in Daniel 9:27 is the Messiah (Jesus) and not the Antichrist? Perhaps Daniel was prophesying the Messiah would institute the New Covenant in Daniel 9:27, where Daniel wrote “he will confirm a covenant with many for one week.”
– If so, what does it mean that Jesus would confirm the covenant “for one week?” For one possible explanation, read Skolfield’s “Daniel’s 70th Week” essay, referenced below. If he is correct, the 70th week is already fulfilled.
– If Jesus is the one who confirms the covenant for one week, where Daniel wrote “in the midst of the week he will put an end to sacrifice and offering” Daniel would’ve been referring to Jesus putting an end to the Mosaic animal sacrificial system by the sacrifice of Himself on the cross, after a 3 and 1/2 year earthly ministry. (Hebrews 7:27)
– Ellis Skolfield makes a convincing argument that the Islamic Dome of the Rock fulfilled ‘the abomination that causes desolation’ on Jerusalem’s temple mount. You can read his essays at https://www.ellisskolfield.net/essays. While I don’t agree with him on everything, I recommend his thought-provoking and compelling essays on ‘Dome of the Rock’ and ‘Daniel’s 70th Week.’
– Perhaps the 2017 anniversary (120×50) in my article doesn’t signal the beginning of Daniel’s 70th week. Instead, maybe the traditional 70th week (7 year period) will start on the 70th Jubilee anniversary in 2024?
In summary, if 2017-2024 is to be Daniel’s 70th Week, I agree that we didn’t see the fulfillment of expected mid-term events according to traditional eschatology. But, that doesn’t invalidate the math in the article pointing to the 70th Jubilee anniversary in 2024. So, whether the 70th Jubilee anniversary is the beginning, middle, or end of Daniel’s 70th Week, I’m convinced it will be a significant milestone is the ascendency of God’s kingdom rule on the earth.
Shalom sister.
Love these conversations.
Just thinking based on what your saying here…
Could the abomination of desolation have something to do with the 💉? It seems to be timely when it was introduced roughly 3 1/2years after 2017.
We are the temple of YHWH now since the new covenant through Jesus and this 💉is being shown to potentially affect our DNA that was coded with YHWHs name written into our DNA. Churches were shut down and many of them complied even allowing clinics to be set up in the church building and encouraging their people to get it…
Just a thought

Update. Reading lower down I see others are thinking the same thing😅
Angela,
It’s an interesting question. We’ll soon find out if the jab is a prophetic fulfillment.
I give my opinion in paragraph #5 of this article: https://standinfaith.org/dont-receive-the-covid-19-vaccine/
Tom
I listen to Dr Stephen Pidgeon quite a bit, and recently this was brought up. The gist? In normal human DNA there are 72,000 base pairs, resulting in 144,000 total genes. If another strand of DNA is “inserted”, there are now 216,000. 600x60x6 equals 216,000.
We are the temple of God. Three and a half years later corresponds perfectly with the rollout of the MRNA vaccines which are able to change our DNA. That is the abomination of desolation.
yep, nailed it
Yes I totally agree that we the body of Christ are the Temple of the Holy Spirit and the MRNA vax is the abominatiom of desolation that sits in the Holy place declaring Himself to be God …the DNA changes are a re coding of our Heavenly Fathers design that being we are made in His image. the Antichrist has now re coded humans into hybrids and are no longer classed as fully human and therefore salvation is no longer available to them …they have the mark of the Beast with his re coded DNA.
But if we and our bodies are considered the temple of God and Covid was released in 2020 as a bioweapons to kill us and then a vaccine introduced that changes our God-given DNA then wouldn’t that be an abomination of desolation of the temple?. Just saying……
Absolutely 💯 correct.
It may be possible that the temple inwhich the abomination of desolation takes place is in our human bodies. Something did happen in 2020…something that would cause the destruction of the “temple”.
The Lord led me to the “bow” greek word Toxon carried by the first horseman. It is the only place in all of scripture where Toxon is used. The etymology of Toxon led me to discover that it means poison. In Rev. Ch. 18 near the end it says that Babylon deceived the nations of the world with her Pharmakeia. Medicine, witches brew, Drug?
Does anything come to mind here?
Interesting!
The Bible says in Exodus 12, that God said that the New Year would be the 1st of Nisan, so that would be spring, not Yom Kippur. When did God change the New Year?? Did man change when the year began, or did God?
Good question. It’ll causing me to update my article according to my answer.
I agree that each Biblical year starts on Nisan 1 in the springtime. In fact, I don’t believe the rabbinic ‘Rosh Hashanah’ holiday on Tishri 1 is legitimate. The only ‘head of the year’ according to the Torah is on Nisan 1.
So the question is, “On what day does the year of Jubilee begin?” Does the ‘year of Jubilee’ coincide with Israel’s annual calendar, beginning on Nisan 1, or does the year of Jubilee start when YHWH said to “sound the shofar abroad on the 10th day of the 7th month–on the Day of Atonement”? A person can make a good argument for either interpretation, but I’m now convinced the Biblical Year of Jubilee begins every 50 years on Nisan 1. I’ll explain why below.
The main reason I’m convinced the year of Jubilee starts on Nisan 1 is because of the prohibition against planting during the 49th and 50th years of the Jubilee cycle. (Ex 25:3-12) In each Jubilee cycle the 49th year is a Shmitah (Sabbath) year, when no planting is allowed. Obviously, the 49th year begins on Nisan 1. Then, the 50th (Jubilee) year is also a Sabbath year, where no planting is allowed. This is the issue that’s resolved in Leviticus 25:20-22, where God promises to feed Israel for 3 years if they obey His commandments to rest (and not plant) in the 49th and 50th years. Therefore, in the 50th year there’s no 7-month gap before the beginning of the Jubilee year–the 50th year begins on Nisan 1, immediately after the 49th year ends. Afterward, the shofar is sounded on the 10th day of the 7th month of the 50th year.
Exodus 25:9 doesn’t tell us the Jubilee year starts on Tishri 10 with the blowing of the shofar. It says blowing the shofar announces the Jubilee year on Yom Kippur, but it’s strictly an assumption to say that’s when the year of Jubilee begins. The shofar could be announcing a (Jubilee) reality that has been existing for 7 months since Nisan 1.
That said, I wonder…in our future when Jubilee is fulfilled, when will all the Jubilee restoration activities begin, such as repossessing every family’s land allotment, freeing all indentured servants, etc.? Will they begin on a future Nisan 1, or on Tishri 10 when the shofar sounds?
Regarding Tishri 10, I can think of two reasons to support an argument for the Jubilee year beginning on Yom Kippur, Tishri 10.
First, Ezekiel’s temple vision starts in Ezekiel 40:1 saying, ” In the twenty-fifth year of our exile, at the beginning of the year (literally, ‘Rosh Hashanah’), on the tenth day of the month—in the fourteenth year after Jerusalem had been struck down—on that very day the hand of the LORD was upon me, and He took me there.”
Many scholars believe Ezekiel received his temple vision (chapters 40-48) on a Jubilee anniversary, based on the specific dating information he provided. But, the question is whether he meant the 10th day was literally “the beginning of the year,” or did he simply mean to say it was in early in the month of Nisan? However, if that were the case, why would he then specify it was the 10th day of the month, which most Israelites would automatically associate with Yom Kippur in the 7th month? So, Ezekiel 40:1 may link “the head of the year” with Yom Kippur and Jubilee.
My second reason is that it’s possible the fulfillment of the year of Jubilee will start in the future on Yom Kippur during the 50th year, but when the Jubilee is announced by God’s shofar (in our future) it will start a whole new paradigm. Jubilee year is then like the 8th day of Sukkot–it’s a new beginning, a new creation. So, if that’s the case, God may revise His calendar in the age to come to commemorate our freedom.
Since I think the arguments for Nisan 1 are stronger, I’ll update my article to reflect that perspective. Thanks for the question!
This may sound too simplistic for some. But after reading your calculations, I feel compelled to point out the difference between 2017 and 2024 is seven years. The same length of days “he” will confirm with a covenant of peace.
Yes, 7 years, as in Daniel’s 70th week.
In Dec. of 2017, Trump recognized Jerusalem as Israel’s capital. This was the single most important end-time event I’ve ever witnessed in my lifetime, although I’m seeing some crazy things, now! So yes, 2017 was very much a significant year for Israel!
Michelle, I agree with you!
Your comment reminded me of the experience I had there in May 2018, causing me to add an iPhone video and the text below to this post. You can find it above, under the heading “2017 and the 50-Year Cycle”
Here’s the paragraph I added:
During Israel’s 70th birthday in May 2018 I was privileged to be in Jerusalem with Dr Michael Heiser and Derek & Sharon Gilbert of Skywatch TV. As you can see in my iPhone video, Israelis filled the streets, celebrating with unbridled joy on the day the American Embassy moved there from Tel Aviv. Being there was an awesome experience!
There is another sign that we should have seen if 2017 started the 7 years, that is the two witnesses. Where are they?
Lauren, the Two Witnesses will prophesy during the last 3.5 years of Daniel’s 70th week–after the abomination of desolation. We can know this because their ministry lasts 1260 days and they battle against ‘the beast who comes up from the abyss’ who eventually kills them just before the 7th Trumpet is sounded at the end of the week. (Rev 11:3-15)
The 2 witnesses begin their ministry on the 7th day of Sukkot 21st day of 7th month. If it is this year it will be Oct. 7-8 depending on the sighting of the moon in Jerusalem. This does not represent the 1260 days clothed in sackcloth. It will be after the first shaking of Heaven and earth which was announced at the eve of feast of dedication. The events are described in Haggai 2:21-23.
I’m curious: What’s your source for saying the 2 Witnesses will start their ministry on the 21st day of the 7th month? What’s your source for saying the Feast of Dedication will announce the first shaking of heaven and earth? What do you find this first shaking of heaven and earth?
Yes, in Zechariah 3,4,6 and Haggai 2, Joshua and Zerubbabel are a mopheth (symbolic of future persons). There is an anomaly of sorts in the book of Haggai that determines if a message is historical or prophetic. If Darius’s name is in the heading of a date, it represents a past message, for the people of that era. If Darius’s name is not in the message, it is to be received by the hand of the prophet Haggai on that particular date. The final message is Haggai 2:1-9, it is a message to us today, it comes on the 7th day of Sukkot, immediately preceding the year of Jubilee. It is to be announced after the first shaking of heaven and earth, the overthrow of the kingdoms of the nations. I actually believe that will happen on the day of atonement as the moon is sighted in Jerusalem. It is said that the second tablets of the law was given on the day of atonement. Originally on mount Sinai, the rams horn was blown, and the earth only shook. Now the trumpet will be blown in heavenly Zion. I’ll show you how Haggai 2:20-23 would be received in the ESV
20The word of the LORD came a second time to Haggai
(Pause)
on the twenty-fourth day of the month, 21“Speak to Zerubbabel, governor of Judah, saying, I am about to shake the heavens and the earth, 22and to overthrow the throne of kingdoms. I am about to destroy the strength of the kingdoms of the nations, and overthrow the chariots and their riders. And the horses and their riders shall go down, every one by the sword of his brother. 23On that day, declares the LORD of hosts, I will take you, O Zerubbabel my servant, the son of Shealtiel, declares the LORD, and make you like ac signet ring, for I have chosen you, declares the LORD of hosts.”
This was December 7, 2015
I know it sounds crazy but keep an eye on world events. I’m pretty sure it will happen this year. This is the beginning of the restoration of all things. First the true calendar, and the Jubilee Cycle.
This is your final message
Haggai 2:1-9
1In the seventh month, on the twenty-first day of the month, the word of the LORD came by the hand of Haggai the prophet: 2“Speak now to Zerubbabel the son of Shealtiel, governor of Judah, and to Joshua the son of Jehozadak, the high priest, and to all the remnant of the people, and say, 3‘Who is left among you who saw this house in its former glory? How do you see it now? Is it not as nothing in your eyes? 4Yet now be strong, O Zerubbabel, declares the LORD. Be strong, O Joshua, son of Jehozadak, the high priest. Be strong, all you people of the land, declares the LORD. Work, for I am with you, declares the LORD of hosts, 5according to the covenant that I made with you when you came out of Egypt. My Spirit remains in your midst. Fear not. 6For thus says the LORD of hosts: Yet once more, in a little while, I will shake the heavens and the earth and the sea and the dry land. 7And I will shake all nations, so that the treasures of all nations shall come in, and I will fill this house with glory, says the LORD of hosts. 8The silver is mine, and the gold is mine, declares the LORD of hosts. 9The latter glory of this house shall be greater than the former, says the LORD of hosts. And in this place I will give peace, declares the LORD of hosts.’”
“This House” , is not speaking of the temple. It speaks of the “house of Israel” the church, the spiritual temple. Obviously, we are either naturally born, or grafted in. Either way, we are Israel. Many branches are broken off and many are grafted in.
26And His voice shook the earth then, but now He has promised, saying, “YET ONCE MORE I WILL SHAKE NOT ONLY THE EARTH, BUT ALSO THE HEAVEN.” 27This expression, “Yet once more,” denotes the removing of those things which can be shaken, as of created things, so that those things which cannot be shaken may remain.
Above is the final shaking of heaven and earth. Yet once more, signifies that the prior shaking, is the proclamation/the alarm that the Day of the Lord is coming. It is the overthrow that paved the way.
Joel 2:1
1Blow a trumpet in Zion,
((day of atonement))))
And sound an alarm on My holy mountain!
Let all the inhabitants of the land tremble,
For the day of the LORD is coming;
Indeed, it is near,
15-16
15Blow the trumpet in Zion; consecrate a fast; call a solemn assembly; 16gather the people. Consecrate the congregation; assemble the elders; gather the children, even nursing infants. Let the bridegroom leave his room, and the bride her chamber.
Fast and convocation on the day of atonement
Haggai 2:6
6For this is what the LORD of armies says: ‘Once more [h]in a little while, I am going to shake the heavens and the earth, the sea also and the dry land.
Hey Tom, I attempted to submit a reply to this yesterday, but it disappeared. I share your sentiment about these calculations because it’s hard to pin point the starting dates, what solar/lunar calendar to use and how to line up the timelines with present day.
My clarifications were entirely in reference to the Jubilee period because it sounded like you were saying that the 70th Jubliee started at the beginning of 2024. If we’re assuming the Exodus marks the beginning of the Jubilee period, then, by my math, the full 70 cycle period ends in Sep. 2024 and a new one Jubilee cycle would start thereafter, which happens to also fall between two different 2550 lunar day periods that fit the criteria of Daniel’s 70th week. All this begs the question as to whether the end time period precedes or follows the conclusion of the 70 Jubilee cycles. If before, then we’d reach the half way point by this March.
Another theory that warrants consideration in my opinion is that Exodus occurred in 1408 BC or some historical event shifted the sabbatical calendar since given that conventional sabbath cycles have been assigned conclude in 1917.. 1945.. 2001, 2008… 2022. This happens to line up with the Creation Calendar starting point of 3980 BC, concluding the 6000 year period and kicking off another 2550 lunar day period. Just a thought.
All this begs the question as to whether the end time period precedes or follows the conclusion of the 70 Jubilee cycles.
I wonder if the answer can be found to the above question in Dan.7:12
As for the rest of the beasts, their dominion was taken away, but an extension of life was granted to them for an appointed period of time.
This might indicate that the end time period follows the conclusion of the 70 Jubilee cycles.
Nona,
You raise interesting questions. We’re all searching for God’s truth, and here are a couple of alternative teachings I am considering.
CJ Lovik:
I recently watched a video from CJ Lovik that supports Daniel’s 70th week happening after the Jubilee, as your comment suggests. He believes the 70th Jubilee will be on Yom Kippur on October 5, 2022, which will be when the church is raptured, followed by 7 years of Jacob’s Trouble. https://youtu.be/9-j8YpZH9yk
Here are my problems with CJ’s perspective:
– CJ Lovik bases much of his teaching on Rosh Hashanah as a New Year date. But, as I wrote in my response to Jake above, I hesitate to depend on Rosh Hashanah’s validity because it’s not explicitly referred to in scripture. Rather, it is a rabbinical tradition that started during/after Judah’s captivity in Babylon.
– In the fulfillment of the Year of Jubilee, all slaves will be released and all believers’ inheritances will be restored. It’s a happy time of freedom and blessing. It’s also the culmination of God’s 7-day Sabbatical pattern: the weekly 7th-day Sabbath, the annual (7×7 day) Pentecost, and the final (7×7 year) Jubilee. So, I have trouble seeing how the Jubilee can be fulfilled just before the greatest period of tribulation since creation began. (Matthew 24:21) It just doesn’t seem to fit the pattern.
– CJ also promotes a pre-trib rapture of the church, followed by 7 years of God dealing with the Jews vs the Antichrist. I try to keep an open mind toward this doctrine, but I don’t think it’s correct.
1. I don’t believe God has two groups of believers–the church and the Jews. Rather, I believe Ephesians 2:12 and Revelation 21 teach there is one Israel that we’re all grafted into, and Yeshua is the only door into it.
2. I don’t believe the Father would send Jesus to the cross, and millions of His disciples to martyrdom since then, but somehow God now wants to save ‘His kids’ from persecution. Rather, I believe suffering is how believers witness to their faith. The Greek word marturos literally means ‘witness.’
Nelson Walters:
Nelson Walters teaches a doctrine that bridges the gap between CJ and myself. Nelson teaches that during the final 7-year Shmitah period the church will be raptured after the 6th year and ‘the Great Tribulation (with Revelation’s 7 trumpets and 7 bowls) occurs during the 7th year of Daniel’s 70th week, during which I assume Abraham’s physical descendants will come to faith in Yeshua, in fulfillment of Zechariah 12:10 and Matthew 23:39. https://youtu.be/78RW2nww0m8?list=PL6SiKFl1tbEpu0WZUOpsiHxYLghpmCNEO
baruch haba b’shem adonai
Gary I think you’re on to something here as well as Tom! I was just looking and researching what took place on 09/11/2018 to end up with the 2025 date… and I about dropped my laptop… here is the link to the article that was pubished on 09/11/2018 in times of Isreal
https://www.timesofisrael.com/al-qaeda-leader-moving-embassy-to-jerusalem-is-proof-the-us-is-enemy-of-islam/
I figured out a way to reconcile your 2024 and 2025 calculations. The problem with your 2024 calculation is that it assumes a year 0, which doesn’t exist. Because 1 BC turns to 1 AD, we don’t technically celebrate the end of a period until the end of the 0 year i.e. 2021 starts the next decade. For this reason, you need add an extra year to the time span when calculating periods before and after the CE. Thus, the start of Daniel’s 70th week is 2018 and ends 7 years later in 2025, which is also the end of the Jubilee period, which more precisely aligns with the Tishrei 1 – Tishrei 10 period lasting for 86 moons beginning in late 2025. Hope this helps.
Thanks for your input Gary. I have to confess, these date calculations make my head spin. Let me ask you…does your information mean the span from 9/22/2017 to 9/14/2024 should be 9/22/2018 to 9/14/2024 on our calendars because of the year zero? Or, are you saying Daniel’s 70th week is from 9/11/2018 to 10/3/2025 because of the year zero? If so, that’s a 2580-day duration, which is 87 moons, so that’s a problem.
Thanks for the article. I learn a lot from your writing. I only have one question: Where do you get the number 200 that you wrote: “200 angels cohabited and produced the nephilim with human women”?
God bless,
Timothy
Timothy,
Good question, I’ll update the site to include this reference.
The number 200 comes from the Book of Enoch, section II, chapter 6, verses 5-8, which reads:
“Then they all swore together, and bound themselves mutually by a curse; and together they were two hundred. And they descended on Ardis, which is the summit of Mount Hermon; and they called it Mount Hermon, because they had sworn on it and bound themselves mutually by a curse. And these are the names of their leaders: Semjaza, who was their leader, Urakibaremeel, Akibeel, Tamiel, Ramuel, Danel, Ezekeel, Saraqujal, Asael, Armers, Batraal, Anani, Zaqebe, Samsaveel, Sartael, Turel, Jomjael, Arazjal. These are the leaders of the two hundred angels, and the others all were with them.”
Great article. I’ve been following End Time Pilgrim and 2025-2032 appears to be the best candidate for the 70th week to start. If the go ahead for the third temple is given, we know how close it is. The Lord’s coming can be imminent only on a given feast of trumpets, if Jesus fulfills that feast, like He has the spring feasts. If 2025 FOT begins the 70th week, then Jesus comes on FOT 2032. Interesting stuff:)
God bless
Jim
Yes, the 70th Jubilee will be in 2025, and 70th week starts from 2025 up to 2032. The calcuation goes from the year Israli entered into the Promised Land, which took place in 1446 b.c. adding forward 70 x 49 years, the following year (the 50th) will be the Jubilee Year.
As there is no Year 0, therefore the calculation goes -1446+70*49+1 which brings us to year 2024, and the following year 2025 will be the Jubilee Year. From 2025-2032 being the Jacob’s trouble, and second coming in 2032. Which is 2000 years apart from 32 a.d. the resurrection of Jesus Christ in the first coming.
Blessed Hope,
I think we’re in general agreement, assuming two things, (1) you meant to say Israel entered the promised land in 1406BC, not 1446BC, and (2) we recognize the 70th Year of Jubilee starts on the Hebrew calendar in 2024 and then it overlaps into 2025 on the Julian calendar.
Regarding 1446 vs 1406, the Bible Archeology reference in the article above said, “The commencement of the conquest can be dated exactly. With the exodus datable to 1446 BC, the conquest automatically is dated to 1406 BC, because for “40 years the sons of Israel walked in the wilderness” before entering Canaan (Josh 5:6). Since the crossing of the Jordan River transpired on the 10th day of the first month, a date of 28 April 1406 BC is fixed as the day in which the Israelites crossed into Canaan (Josh 4:19).”
While I’m confident in the conclusions this article makes about the timing of the 70th Jubilee, and I drew some conclusions about the final shmitah (Daniel’s 70th week) being between 2017-2024, you raise an interesting possibility that the 70th Jubilee may be at the beginning of Daniel’s 70th week instead of being at its conclusion.
Most people will agree the Lord meant for the Year of Jubilee to be a happy time, when we’ll enjoy complete freedom and the return of our (spiritual) inheritance. But, if it’s at the start of Jacob’s trouble, the next 7 years will include horrors and tribulation worse than mankind has ever seen (Mt 24:23). So, if the Year of Jubilee is at the beginning of the final shmitah, will the 70th Jubilee year be the fulfillment of the Jubilee typology, and if so, what will happen on earth (during Jacob’s trouble) when it’s fulfilled? Or, if the Jubilee is not going to be fulfilled on its auspicious 70th anniversary, when do you think Jubilee will be fulfilled? Perhaps at the end of the Millennium? Shalom friend.
This would signal a 2024 rapture of the church which based on my studies is what I believe. Some do not believe in the rapture. In the book of revelation it says I will keep you from the hour of temptation. In Luke it states pray you are accounted worthy to escape all these things.
The hour of temptation is NOT the tribulation. In Greek CLEARLY tribulation THLIBIS IS tribulation which all Christians enter.
Christians are martyred during the FOURTH PART of the FOURTH HORSE this is called the wine sacrifice to the lamb in the book of Numbers.
This has already been planned to play out over the next year.
The Gog/Magog wars they hire men to bury bodies for seven MONTHS because Jubilee isn’t yet finished.
They have to cleanse the land before Moses and Elijah come down.
