Through the prophet Ezekiel, God has numbered the iniquity of Israel and Judah for 430 years. I used to believe these 430 years is Gregorian 430 years, which consists of 365.24 days a year. But what if God used biblical year which is 360 days a year instead of 365.24 a year? Let's say God did use a biblical year as the standard in 430 years. Then I have just found a very interesting scenario. But before I begin, let's find out in which year of Israel and Judah's history, when the iniquity began. Solomon reigned from 970 BC to 930 BC. He has drifted away from the Lord because of his wives. But scripture seems to reveal that Solomon returned to the Lord. The book of Ecclesiastes was written by Solomon. It was written near the end of his life and describes his search for meaning in life. It appears from Ecclesiastes 12:13-15 that Solomon realized his boat was out of sea and finally returned his boat to the harbor before he died. Ecclesiastes 12:13 Let us hear the conclusion of the whole matter: Fear God, and keep his commandments: for this is the whole duty of man. 14 For God shall bring every work into judgment, with every secret thing, whether it be good, or whether it be evil. Solomon has repented before he died. Having said this, the 430 years iniquity could not begin from Solomon. It should begin after his death, when his kingdom was divided into two. I have done some research on the date of Solomon's death. But I could not found it. So I made an assumption that the iniquity of Israel and Judah shall end on April 15 2028 when Jesus returns to earth. Now I am going to work backward to find out the date of Solomon's death. 430 biblical years = 154800 days (430 X 360 days ) The rebirth of Israel as a nation took place on May 14 1948. This was the year Israel regained their sovereignty after they lost it in 586 BC. Between May 14 1948 and April 15 2028, there are 29191 days. God sees these days as iniquity of Israel and Judah because during these period, they did not repent and turn to Jesus as their Messiah. Now, since the total number of days of their iniquity are 154800 days. Subtract 29191 days from 154800 days, which gives us 125609 days. There should have been 125609 days of iniquity back in the ancient history of Israel and Judah after Solomon's death in 930 BC. The combined iniquity of Israel and Judah ended in the summer of 586 BC, when their first temple was destroyed. To be more exact, that day took place on July 18 586 BC according to torahcalendar.com. When we trace back their iniquity, we count 125609 days backward from July 18 586 BC to find out which day Solomon died. I am going to use torahcalendar.com to simplify the calculation. July 18 586 BC happens to be Day 1507585. Subtract 125609 days from 1507585, we have Day 1381976. That day falls on 930 BC Aug 24 according to torahcalendar.com. The death of Solomon could occur on Aug 24 930 BC. Solomon died on Aug 24 930 BC. The 430 years or 154800 days of Israel and Judah iniquity began on Aug 24 930 BC. This counting of days and years of iniquity ended abruptly on July 18 586 BC when their temple was destroyed,when Judah lost their sovereignty status. These period of iniquity lasted 125609 days. That leaves a remaining of 29191 days of iniquity to be fulfilled ( 154800 - 125609). Miraculously, Israel came back as a nation on May 14 1948. Adding 29191 days to May 14 1948, their iniquity shall end on April 15 2028 when Jesus returns to earth. Now, the question is, did Solomon die on Aug 24 930 BC? I think this calculation of 430 years iniquity of Israel and Judah is very close, because Solomon did die in 930 BC. Below is the illustration of 430 years iniquity of Israel and Judah. Aug 24 930 BC Death of Solomon, 430 years iniquity of Israel and Judah began ---------- 125609 days ----------July 18 586 BC Destruction of First Temple, Judah lost their sovereignty. Interruption of 430 years iniquity May 14 1948 430 years of iniquity resumes -----29191 days --------- April 15 2028 Second Advent , End of 430 years iniquity of Israel and Judah. 125609 days + 29191 days = 430 years (154800 days) iniquity of Israel and Judah. There is another way we can look at it. 430 biblical years is 423.83 Gregorian years. Solomon died in 930 BC. The iniquity clock of Israel and Judah began in 930 BC. It was interrupted in the summer of 586 BC. Between 930 BC and 586 BC, there were 344 years. That leaves a 79.83 years ( 423.83 years- 344 years ) iniquity waiting to be fulfilled. Israel came back as a nation on May 14 1948. Iniquity clock began to move again. Adding 79.83 years to May 14 1948, we come to March 2028 as the end of the iniquity of Israel and Judah. "Adding 79.83 years to May 14 1948, we come to March 2028 as the end of the iniquity of Israel and Judah." 79.83 years round it to nearest zero, it does seem the last generation which witness the rebirth of Israel is 80 years. That speaks to the generational time Psalm 70 to 80 yrs. Then subtracting 7 years from Mar 2028 gives us Mar 2021! Is this the start of Tribulation? Or as many have speculated a lapse of time between the Rapture the Tribulation period. With the Rapture being sometime before. How much before? TR I don't believe in a gap theory. It does look there is a 80 years iniquity left for Israel to fulfill, and the last generation is 80 years. A little confession here. I prayed to God earlier today and asked for confirmation of my date April 15 2028. Immediately after my prayer, I took a look at Ezekiel's 430 years prophecy and came to this calculation which I have never thought of until today.
