I have 2300 days begin on Kislev 24 Dec 22 2019. That day is known as Hanukkah. It is the first day of restoration and re-institution of their daily sacrifice ( from my thread titled "Daniel's 2300 days" ). I also believe the confirmation of covenant shall take place on that day. Haggai 2:20 And again the word of the LORD came unto Haggai in the four and twentieth day of the month, saying, 21 Speak to Zerubbabel, governor of Judah, saying, I will shake the heavens and the earth; 22 And I will overthrow the throne of kingdoms, and I will destroy the strength of the kingdoms of the heathen; and I will overthrow the chariots, and those that ride in them; and the horses and their riders shall come down, every one by the sword of his brother. In 520 BC, God chose Kislev 24 to give Haggai His displeasure on the nations. Why did God choose 24th day of the ninth month? Did God foresee the covenant would be confirmed on that day, and gave His displeasure and disapproval on the covenant and the nations? God calls this covenant a death covenant in Isaiah 28. Will this covenant and re-institution of daily sacrifice provoke God's anger? After all, this daily sacrifice cannot save them. Only Jesus can. Will Kislev 24 play a significant role in the future? We shall see. So, 2ndComing, do you expect our departure to occur within the next couple months, (something I seem to recall from your posts earlier), and the covenant with many (a la Daniel 9:27) in a little over nine months? Does the covenant with many start the seven year tribulation, or is it a ways into it? Your thoughts... I do expect rapture shall occur in few months. But a war must occur between Israel and the three shepherds before rapture can happen. Based on Zechariah 11, we have three sequential events. 1/ God cuts off three shepherds in one month 2/ God calls the church home by breaking the covenant with all the people. God calls the church "Beauty" and represented by the first staff. 3/ Appearance of foolish shepherd who is Anti Christ. Three shepherds are Lebanon, Syria and Jordan. From Isaiah 16 and 17, God has given us a clue as in which season this event shall take place ( Psalm 83, fourth transgression in Amos 1-2, Destruction of Damascus ). Isaiah 16:8 For the fields of Heshbon languish, and the vine of Sibmah: the lords of the heathen have broken down the principal plants thereof, they are come even unto Jazer, they wandered through the wilderness: her branches are stretched out, they are gone over the sea. 9 Therefore I will bewail with the weeping of Jazer the vine of Sibmah: I will water thee with my tears, O Heshbon, and Elealeh: for the shouting for thy summer fruits and for thy harvest is fallen. Isaiah 16 is an oracle against Moab which is modern day Jordan. Key words are " for the shouting for thy summer fruits and for thy harvest is fallen". The destruction of Jordan shall take place in summer. We can also find this "summer" scenario from Isaiah 17. Isaiah 17:5 And it shall be as when the harvestman gathereth the corn, and reapeth the ears with his arm; and it shall be as he that gathereth ears in the valley of Rephaim. 6 Yet gleaning grapes shall be left in it, as the shaking of an olive tree, two or three berries in the top of the uppermost bough, four or five in the outmost fruitful branches thereof, saith the LORD God of Israel. Key words are " harvestman gathereth the corn" and "gleaning grapes". Corn harvest in Israel begins in April, while grape harvest begins in June , and lasts til September. The destruction of Damascus shall take place in summer also. Having said this, God shall cut off three shepherds in summer. This is when the next Middle East war shall break out. It shall last one month, then boom, God calls the church home. Also, my 1335 days timeline ends on Shavuot 2026 which is May 22. By subtracting 2520 days from May 22 2026, we come to June 28 this year as the possible date for rapture and tribulation to begin. Originally I had May 9 as the rapture date few months ago. But understanding the middle east war has to occur in summer, which precedes rapture, now I find June 28 is more plausible. And my belief is 7 years tribulation is triggered by the rapture, not by the confirmation of covenant. The confirmation of covenant is part of tribulation events, or in my case, happens on Hanukkah 2019 together with the re-institution of the daily sacrifice.
