Other Examples

Are there other examples that fit into the pattern down to 37 BC?

Yes, Nebuchednazzer became a wild animal for seven years in 569 BC, 532 years (28 x 19 yrs.) before 37 BC.

Alexander conquered Palestine and allowed the Jews to observe their land rests without paying tribute after 331 BC, 294 years (6 jubilees) before 37 BC.

Solomon built the temple in 968 BC, 931 years (133 sabbaticals) before 37 BC.

3957 minus 968 equals 2989 years (equal to 427 sabbaticals, or 61 jubilees).

3761 minus 968 equals 2793 years (equal to 399 sabbaticals, or 57 jubilees).

The second temple was built in 520 BC, in the second year of Darius. This was 69 sabbaticals before 37 BC and was 49 years after Nebuchednezzar became a wild beast in 569 BC.

Note that the first temple was founded 479 years after the exodus, which is 439 years after Joshua crossed the Jordan with the Israelites. Thus, the sabbatical in Jerusalem was in 966 BC, two years after 968, 441 years after Joshua crossed the Jordan (7 x 63). This is confirmed by sabbaticals in 868, 721, 623, 588, 574 and 539 BC. This has caused mass confusion.

From this, we arrive at the obvious conclusion that the 19-year cycle, 7-year cycle and 49-year cycle all started at the same time, in 3951, 3761 and 37 BC, and this reinforces the idea of calendars beginning at those times. All three started over again in 37 BC. Moreover, there are 196 years (4 jubilees) between 3957 BC and 3761 BC (rabbinic date of Creation. Rabbinical chronology omitted 60 years between Abraham and his father, and it dated the first temple as 832 BC instead of 968 BC and, thus, omitted another 136 years between

Five sabbaticals (35 years) after 37 BC bring us to a sabbatical in 2 BC, and the cycle starts over in 1 BC. Two 19-year cycles (38 years) after BC 37 bring us to AD 1, and the cycle starts over in AD 2, 21 and 40.

        7-yr. Cycle

2 BC = 7

1 BC = 1

1 AD = 2
2 AD = 3

 19-yr. Cycle

2 BC = 17

1 BC = 18

1 AD = 19
2 AD = 1

 

The 19-year cycle beginning after 1 AD is supported by the Easter Cycle of 532 years (28 x 19 yrs.). Paul and others continued to write letters defining the Christian era, and this continued until well after 532 AD, when the date, 1 AD, was invented by Dyonysus Exiguous and used in North and South America, Europe, Australia, and most of the civilized world.

Notes on TABLE 2

Counting from Creation in the fall of 3957 BC, the 19-years need an extra-intercalated month in years 2, 4, 7, 10, 12, 15, and 18 in order to keep the lunar years in sync with the solar years. These intercalations are illustrated in TABLE 2 with blue lines across the page. Note that intercalations during the 747 BC column are in the years 3, 6, 8, 11, 14, 16 & 19.

If this method of intercalation were faulty, the eclipses would not occur on the first and 14th days of the lunar-solar calendar at proper times as they do from 71 to 2014 AD.

This also means that, since the lunar year (with 235 moons) is .08056 days longer than 19 years, this overlap must have been corrected over the last 2,000 years, otherwise the eclipses would not continue to fall on the proper day of the lunar months of the calculated calendar in our modern times, as displayed at http://code251.com/code1900-p5.html (TABLE 5).

When is the Next Sabbatical and Jubilee?

Why study sabbaticals and jubilees? The above evidence shows they are an integral part of God’s over-all master plan and may help us understand the time of the end.

2015 AD is the next sabbatical.   

2022 AD is 49 jubilees after Herod conquered Jerusalem, and 427 sabbaticals after Solomon’s temple.

NOTE: TABLE 5 illustrates how scribes manipulated the 251-year and 427-year cycles to create their own versions. It adds BC dates to the Book of Jubilees based upon an exodus in 1764 BC (2410 years after Adam), when the Hyksos (allegedly Hebrews) were expelled from Egypt. It uses known BC dates preserved in Samaritan chronology (exodus = 1683 BC, 2753 years after Adam, Creation = 4436 BC, 479 years before 3957 BC).

Book of Jubilees has 2410 years from Adam to the exodus. Book of Jubilees has 2450 years (49 x 50) from Adam to the Entry (half of 4900 years, which are 50 Jubilees). The book ends with the death of Moses and the entry across the Jordan River

http://www.ccel.org/c/charles/pseudepigrapha/jubilee/1.htm.

In The Assumption of Moses (the year before the Entry), the Jubilee is figured as 50 x 50 yrs., or 2500 yrs. after Adam.

However, a tradition held by Eusebius and in Alexandria is that Abraham was born in 2016 BC. If we say he was born 2008 (251 x 8) years after Adam, then Creation would be in 4024 BC, which would be 6000 years before 1975 AD.

Quoting other Sources

A final note on the year of the Crucifixion, we find that Eusebius, in his Chronicle, citing the Gospel of John, states that Jesus was crucified in his third visit to Jerusalem to keep the Passover during his ministry (John 3:13; 6:4; 11:55) Jerome also said it was in the third year of the 202nd Olympiad:

(http://www.mgh-bibliothek.de/dokumente/a/a127662.txt.

(Search for “third year of the 202nd Olympiad”). The 202nd begins after 201 Olympiads, after 776 BC, which equal 804 years (201 x 4). The third year is the 807th year. This makes 31 AD the 807th year (201 x 4 + 3= 807) (776 BC – 807 = 31 AD. (Some are alleging that the Crucifixion was in 30 AD because 31 AD was an intercalary year with 13 months. However, this would be wrong if the year began on April 11 and if the Crucifixion were 14 days later. 

When is the Next Sabbatical and Jubilee?

Why study sabbaticals and jubilees? The above evidence shows they are an integral part of God’s over-all master plan and may help us understand the time of the end. Is there any historical proof of a jubilee during the current era?

Dr. Benedict Zuchermann cites Matthew Paris in Hist., Major, London, 1686, p. 128, claiming that Richard Coeur de Lion (Richard the Lionhearted, a Commander of the Third Crusade) was coronated at the beginning of a jubilee year, on Sunday, September 3, 1189 AD.

http://www.sacredcalendar.info/Jubilee.html

Zuchermann says that date was Elul 19 (A Treatise on the Sabbatical Cycle and the Jubilee, p. 55).  This would be eleven days before the Jewish new year on Tishri 1 or 21 days before the day of Atonement, Tishri 10, when the jubilee is announced. 427 years after 1189 brings us to a sabbatical or jubilee in 2022 AD.

17 jubilees after 1189 brings us to a jubilee in 2022 AD, which is 42 jubilees after Herod captured Jerusalem in 37 BC.

2022 AD is 49 jubilees after Herod conquered Jerusalem in 37 BC, and 427 sabbaticals after Solomon’s temple.
