I have found an interpretation of the prophecy of Daniel's Seventy Sevens that I want to share with you. Back in 2001, I had been engaged in a study of eschatology and I had realized that some of the things I believed were incorrect. This sent me to scripture to see if I could find something to illuminate my search for sound, Biblical answers to the questions of the timing of the end times. I was not very well versed in the history of the passage in Daniel 9 that tells of a prophecy with a starting and ending point and the coming of the Messiah. I prayed to God to open my eyes and see what he wanted me to see. When I read through it, I became aware of the answer that I am writing this to convey. The vast majority of modern Christians see the prophecy as pertaining to the crucifixion of Jesus after a period of 69 ”sevens” have elapsed from a decree to restore and rebuild Jerusalem. I wish there was another way to say it, but I don’t think that is correct.     

 

Daniel 9:24 “Seventy ‘sevens’ are decreed for your people and your holy city to finish transgression, to put an end to sin, to atone for wickedness, to bring in everlasting righteousness, to seal up vision and prophecy and to anoint the Most Holy Place. 

25 “Know and understand this: From the time the word goes out to restore and rebuild Jerusalem until the Anointed One, the ruler, comes, there will be seven ‘sevens,’ and sixty-two ‘sevens.’ It will be rebuilt with streets and a trench, but in times of trouble. 26 After the (COMING OF THE) sixty-two ‘sevens,’ the Anointed Onewill be put to death and will have nothing. The people of the ruler who will come will destroy the city and the sanctuary. The end will come like a flood: War will continue until the end, and desolations have been decreed. 27 He will confirm a covenant with many for one ‘seven.’ In the middle of the ‘seven’ he will put an end to sacrifice and offering. And at the temple he will set up an abomination that causes desolation, until the end that is decreed is poured out on him. 

  

Verse 25 tells us that this is a prophetic timeline.  We have a starting point, the decree, and a period of time that culminates with a coming.  That statement is the key to understanding this prophecy.  The periods of time given in verse 25 culminate with the coming of the person.  It is not a period of time that ends in their death or any other thing.  Gabriel very clearly states that the times end with a coming.  Gabriel tells Daniel about two different people in this prophecy.  The ruler, who is the antichrist and the Anointed One, who is Jesus. Notice how the order of their appearance on Earth is maintained in the prophecy.   The first decree is to restore Jerusalem.  The first person mentioned is Jesus.  The second decree is to rebuild Jerusalem.  The second person is the AntiChrist.  

 

9:25 From the time the word goes out to restore andrebuild Jerusalem until the Anointed One, the ruler, comes, there will be seven ‘sevens,’ and sixty-two ‘sevens.’

 

That leads us to the question of how to know which period of time named in the verse is for which person.  If the pattern is maintained, then the first period of time would be seven sevens and it would be the Anointed One who comes after the seven sevens.  However, what we are told in verse 26 is that the 62 sevens are aligned with the Anointed One.  

 

26 After the sixty-two ‘sevens,’ the Anointed One will be put to death and will have nothing.

 

Why didn't Gabriel maintain the pattern and say "62 sevens" first?  I believe it's because of the way things fall on the Jewish calendar.  Every year, Passover is celebrated in the Spring.   The day after Passover starts the counting of the Omer.  The Israelites count off 49 days to Shavuot.  The Omer is 7x7, just like our seven sevens.    Shavuot is a stand alone day.  It is not part of the seven sevens.  The day after Shavuot starts another much less joyous count.  From the day after Shavuot, it is 62 days to Tisha Ba'av.  That is the day the first and second Temples were destroyed.  Yes, they were both destroyed on the same day.  It would be like if NYC and Washington DC were both attacked again on Sept 11th in a future year.  No one would forget about that.  Gabriel was honoring the order in time of the history of the Jewish people.  The seven sevens were from the Exodus and the first Passover.  The destruction of the Temples came much later and added the count of 62 days.  Shavuot stands alone, separate from the count.  This is very important.  In the Masoretic Text, the scribes place a punctuation mark between the numbers in Daniel.  The mark denotes that the two time periods are separate from each other.  They are not to be added together or even spoken in unison in a way that combines them.  Our modern Bibles have maintained that separation, even as most people studying Eschatology today combine them.  It is often stated, "at the end of the 69 sevens, Jesus is crucified."  The practice of combining the two goes way back to the third and fourth centuries.  Early Church Fathers were trying, as we are, to make sense of this difficult passage. They were "searching the scriptures intently and with the greatest care, trying to find the time and circumstances" indicated by the prophecy.  Of course, they were looking to see if it was going to occur while they lived.  In order to make many their theories "work", they had to combine them into 69 sevens.  The thing that has really solidified the adding of the sevens is the rise of the pre-trib theory of the rapture.  In order to maintain the sense of expectation, they have crafted a view where only the final seven years remain on the clock.  That seven years could come at any moment with zero warning.  In that camp, there is widespread disagreement about the timing of the 69 sevens.  Dates in the ancient times are not as reliable as they are now.  And no one knows the date of Jesus birth.  Some say they do but don't agree with the rest.  The seventy sevens prophecy has been an enigma since Christ walked the Earth and even before.  There have been some who sought to keep the times separate.  Most notable was Sir Isaac Newton.  There have been few others.  Remember what the angel told Daniel.  Those who are alive at the at the time of the end will be able to understand the timing.  That's because the clock will start again with a decree to rebuild Jerusalem.  If the information to understand what is happening with the 1260 days is not in scripture, then you would have to say that it would be revealed through a word to a prophet or a vision or dream.  Gabriel does not say how the wise will understand.  He also uses the word "they" meaning that there will be many who understand it.  The knowledge will not be limited to one or two people, in my opinion.  I also believe that the information has to be available before the abomination of desolation.  Otherwise, you could say that every believer will finally get it when that occurs and they will know they have 1260 days of hell on Earth to go through, starting NOW.  That's not as much of a warning as 49 years would be but it's still better than nothing. I believe he was referring to understanding the whole timeline.  The timeline of the seventy sevens.  I believe that this could very well be the way.  If we know when that decree is issued, we will have solved the riddle.  The information necessary to know the date that the final seven years will start has been hidden from anyone not alive as it is happening.  That included Jesus.  God put a blanket over the time of the seven sevens from the time it was first uttered by Gabriel.  I believe that both Paul and Jesus were well aware of the meaning of the seventy sevens.  Was that what he was referring to when he called the attention of the Thessalonians to his teaching that they received in person from him?  God wants us to live in expectation of his coming.  He also wants us to be watching for the signs that it's approaching.  He did not want people to come to the realization that it wasn't coming in their lifetimes.   If there was no chance of his return while you lived, many people would fall away into licentiousness.  In fact, just before the Great Tribulation begins, there will be a falling away.  After that we will see the AntiChrist take his stand against God in the temple.  After that will come the Day of the Lord where we will be caught up to be with him before he pours out his wrath on the world.    

 

   

   

If we are going to check our timing against history, we need to know what amount of time we are talking about.  Is a “seven” just seven years?  If it is, why did Gabriel not just say years?  The ninth chapter of Daniel refers to years over and over, yet when the predicted time periods here were given for the seventy sevens, Gabriel used a different term than year.  Most Bible scholars who don’t believe that a “seven” is seven years would argue that it represents seven periods of 360 days.  That is largely due to the Jewish lunar calendar and the biblical prophetic equivalence of 3 ½ years, 42 months and 1260 days, all three of which are half of the final “seven”.  That would mean each “seven” contains 2520 days.  When you multiply 7x62x360 you get 156,240 days. 156,240/365 equals roughly 428 years.  This corresponds roughly to the time between the Testaments.  Nehemiah was among the final books of the OT. He was the Governor of Judah and the rebuilder of Jerusalem and it’s walls.  His 12-year term as Governor was from 445BC to 432BC. 

Neh 5:14 Moreover, from the twentieth year of King Artaxerxes, when I was appointed to be their governor in the land of Judah, until his thirty-second year—twelve years—neither I nor my brothers ate the food allotted to the governor.

 

That means that his time as Governor ended 428 years before 4BC, which is in the range of the time when Jesus was born.  How did his Governorship end?  Was there something that happened then that could be called a decree to restore Jerusalem?  Indeed, there was something pretty spectacular that occurred.  Ezra had overseen the building and dedication of the Second Temple.  Nehemiah was much more focused on the city of Jerusalem and it's walls.  Ezra completed the Temple on March 12, 516.  40 days later he purified the priests and himself with the ashes of the red heifer and they ascended to the Mount and performed the Pashcal Sacrifice for Passover on April 21, 516BC.  Israel had been given permission from the Babylonian King to rebuild the temple but had been forcibly stopped from rebuilding the city.  This was the situation they were left with until Nehemiah was granted permission to rebuild the city itself.  He was given permission in the month of Nisan in 445BC to rebuild the city and he was appointed governor as well.  The exact day is not recorded but Nisan 14 is Passover, so he may have well made his request as part of his observance of Passover in Babylon.  He had the work done quickly.  52 days to be exact.  But he had it in his heart to restore the city in it's relationship with God as well.  To that end, he set about to have a Great Assembly of the people and to dedicate them, and himself, to the service of God by following his word.  It is recorded in the 12th chapter of Nehemiah.  It is also the last thing recorded in the reign of Nehemiah as Governor.  Indeed, what followed that was 428 years where the nation of Israel managed to hold it together and maintain the temple and the city up until the time of the coming of Jesus.  

 

Here is the description of the issuing of the decree to restore Jerusalem.  

Neh 12:27 At the dedication of the wall of Jerusalem, the Levites were sought out from where they lived and were brought to Jerusalem to celebrate joyfully the dedication with songs of thanksgiving and with the music of cymbals, harps and lyres. 28 The musicians also were brought together from the region around Jerusalem—from the villages of the Netophathites, 29 from Beth Gilgal, and from the area of Geba and Azmaveth, for the musicians had built villages for themselves around Jerusalem. 30 When the priests and Levites had purified themselves ceremonially, they purified the people, the gates and the wall. 

31 I had the leaders of Judah go up on top of[e] the wall. I also assigned two large choirs to give thanks. One was to proceed on top of[f] the wall to the right, toward the Dung Gate. 32 Hoshaiah and half the leaders of Judah followed them, 33 along with Azariah, Ezra, Meshullam, 34 Judah, Benjamin, Shemaiah, Jeremiah, 35 as well as some priests with trumpets, and also Zechariah son of Jonathan, the son of Shemaiah, the son of Mattaniah, the son of Micaiah, the son of Zakkur, the son of Asaph, 36 and his associates—Shemaiah, Azarel, Milalai, Gilalai, Maai, Nethanel, Judah and Hanani—with musical instruments prescribed by David the man of God. Ezra the teacher of the Law led the procession. 37 At the Fountain Gate they continued directly up the steps of the City of David on the ascent to the wall and passed above the site of David’s palace to the Water Gate on the east. 

38 The second choir proceeded in the opposite direction. I followed them on top of the wall, together with half the people—past the Tower of the Ovens to the Broad Wall, 39 over the Gate of Ephraim, the Jeshanah[h] Gate, the Fish Gate, the Tower of Hananel and the Tower of the Hundred, as far as the Sheep Gate. At the Gate of the Guard they stopped. 

40 The two choirs that gave thanks then took their places in the house of God; so did I, together with half the officials, 41 as well as the priests—Eliakim, Maaseiah, Miniamin, Micaiah, Elioenai, Zechariah and Hananiah with their trumpets— 42 and also Maaseiah, Shemaiah, Eleazar, Uzzi, Jehohanan, Malkijah, Elam and Ezer. The choirs sang under the direction of Jezrahiah. 43 And on that day they offered great sacrifices, rejoicing because God had given them great joy. The women and children also rejoiced. The sound of rejoicing in Jerusalem could be heard far away. 

44 At that time men were appointed to be in charge of the storerooms for the contributions, firstfruits and tithes. From the fields around the towns they were to bring into the storerooms the portions required by the Law for the priests and the Levites, for Judah was pleased with the ministering priests and Levites. 45 They performed the service of their God and the service of purification, as did also the musicians and gatekeepers, according to the commands of David and his son Solomon. 46 For long ago, in the days of David and Asaph, there had been directors for the musicians and for the songs of praise and thanksgiving to God. 47 So in the days of Zerubbabel and of Nehemiah, all Israel contributed the daily portions for the musicians and the gatekeepers. They also set aside the portion for the other Levites, and the Levites set aside the portion for the descendants of Aaron. 

13:1 On that day the Book of Moses was read aloud in the hearing of the people and there it was found written that no Ammonite or Moabite should ever be admitted into the assembly of God, 2 because they had not met the Israelites with food and water but had hired Balaam to call a curse down on them. (Our God, however, turned the curse into a blessing.) 3 When the people heard this law, they excluded from Israel all who were of foreign descent. 

4 Before this, Eliashib the priest had been put in charge of the storerooms of the house of our God. He was closely associated with Tobiah, 5 and he had provided him with a large room formerly used to store the grain offerings and incense and temple articles, and also the tithes of grain, new wine and olive oil prescribed for the Levites, musicians and gatekeepers, as well as the contributions for the priests. 

6 But while all this was going on ("all this" is limited in reference to verses 4 and 5), I was not in Jerusalem, for in the thirty-second year of Artaxerxes king of Babylon I had returned to the king. Some time later I asked his permission 7 and came back to Jerusalem. Here I learned about the evil thing Eliashib had done in providing Tobiah a room in the courts of the house of God. 8 I was greatly displeased and threw all Tobiah’s household goods out of the room. 9 I gave orders to purify the rooms, and then I put back into them the equipment of the house of God, with the grain offerings and the incense. 

This part is a bit tricky and I have not always had this straight.  But here is the timeline that Nehemiah gives us. Nehemiah was governor for 12 years as they continued to rebuild the city of David.  In his last year as governor (433/432BC), he was in Babylon for a time. He came back to Jerusalem "some time later".  When he arrived, he found out what Tobiah was up to.  Nehemiah cleared out the rooms in the Temple that Tobiah had used.  He also stopped many things that the people were doing that defiled the Temple and the city itself.  Then they held the dedication of the wall.  That dedication would have meant nothing if Nehemiah had not first stopped the evil practices that were going on while he was away.  Verses 12:44 and 13:1mark the decree of restoration of the already rebuilt city. In my interpretation, the first decree is to restore to God an already rebuilt Jerusalem.  The ceremony, the reading of the book of Moses and the oath that the people took are the decree to restore Jerusalem that starts the 62 sevens.  All of the 13th chapter of Nehemiah took place before the dedication of the wall.  This decree took place in either 433BC or 432BC.  Jesus was born approximately 428 years after this decree.  That is just a plain fact.  You could argue that this is not the decree spoken of by Gabriel to Daniel, but you can't say that there was not 428 years (which is 62 sevens) between this event and the coming/birth of Jesus.  This decree was completely wrapped up in the restoration and not the rebuilding.  I believe that's because the rebuilding decree was yet in the future from their point in time.  Now I am going to show you why I say we are living through that decree now and are very near to it's end.  There is much more detail and nuance in this material than what I have presented.  I am trying to be as succinct as possible. :)

THE JERUSALEM LAW

AND

THE SEVEN SEVENS

 

If my interpretation is correct, Jesus knew that the 62 sevens had been fulfilled in his birth. He also knew that the period of seven sevens would begin in the future. Again, this is according to my interpretation. I have found a decree to restore Jerusalem 428 years (62 sevens) before Jesus was born.  What we need to find next is a modern decree to rebuild Jerusalem. Then we can see if there is any kind of a fit or information that can be gathered when we apply our count to said decree.  

 

 

Have you heard the Jewish prayer “next year in rebuilt Jerusalem”? The Jews are looking for a rebuilt Jerusalem complete with a Third Temple on the Temple Mount. The prophecy of the seventy sevens also has us looking for a rebuilding in Jerusalem. The prophecy revolves not around Israel, nor the Temple specifically, but it centers on the city and the people of Jerusalem. That city came back into Jewish hands in the 1967 Six Day War. On June 28, 1967, the Knesset issued a decree to rebuild Jerusalem. Then, on July 30, 1980 they passed The Jerusalem Law, which gave complete sovereignty over Jerusalem to Israel and solidified the 1967 decree. It even lists the 1967 decree in its text. It set forth the decree to rebuild in clause 4. The prophecy tells us that it will be “rebuilt with streets and a trench, even in troublous times.” Indeed, a barrier has been built around the West Bank and Jerusalem. It is a fence and a trench and a road on each side.  It was built primarily during the 2004 Intifada to keep terrorists from entering.

It is very simple from this point to check the results.  July 30, 1980 plus 17,640 days(7x2520) comes out to Nov 14, 2028.  If my interpretation is correct, this would be the end of the seven sevens and the start of the final seven years.  That date has some remarkable facts associated with it.  Let us take a look at those and see if we can confirm the date as significant. Not just that date, but all of the dates on the timeline that started in 1980.  The dates on my timeline are the end of each seven as well as the mid point of each.  I believe that we are close enough to 2028 that we should be able now to see something happening if it is indeed building in that direction. I have found so many things that point to that time that it’s been stunning. 

 

Let’s start with the Pope. He is all in on the WEF and the UN Climate Change Agenda. He released his encyclical on Pentecost 2015.  A very wise man pointed out to me that while Pentecost and Shavuot happened on the same day in the book of Acts, they are not calculated or counted from the same starting point today.  Pentecost is 50 days after Easter and Shavuot is 50 days after Passover.  The early church was often determined to separate themselves from Judaism.  So, I am making every effort to differentiate the two.  Both are related to the timeline but in very different ways. I do go to Church on Easter for the same reason I celebrate Christmas.  In truth I celebrate neither.  Rather I am celebrating the birth of Jesus into this world at Christmas regardless of what else was celebrated on that day in the past or present.  At Easter I celebrate the Passover and the deliverance from bondage that I found myself in before I was part of the body of Christ.  The deliverance of Israel, the Exodus, the parting of the Red Sea, the pillars of fire by night and smoke by day, the giving of the law at Sinai; these mirror the path that we all took to get here.  No one starts their journey at Sinai.  And you can't make it to the promised land in unbelief.

 

1Col 2:3 When you were dead in your sins and in the uncircumcision of your flesh, God made you[d] alive with Christ. He forgave us all our sins, 14 having canceled the charge of our legal indebtedness, which stood against us and condemned us; he has taken it away, nailing it to the cross. 15 And having disarmed the powers and authorities, he made a public spectacle of them, triumphing over them by the cross.16 Therefore do not let anyone judge you by what you eat or drink, or with regard to a religious festival, a New Moon celebration or a Sabbath day. 17 These are a shadow of the things that were to come; the reality, however, is found in Christ. 18 Do not let anyone who delights in false humility and the worship of angels disqualify you. Such a person also goes into great detail about what they have seen; they are puffed up with idle notions by their unspiritual mind. 19 They have lost connection with the head, from whom the whole body, supported and held together by its ligaments and sinews, grows as God causes it to grow.

 

 Ok, back to the pope.  The name of his encyclical is “Laudato Si”, which means care for our common home.  Alongside that encyclical, he released a seven-year plan to bring the Church into compliance with Agenda 2030. He began his seven-year plan on the 33rd Sunday of Ordinary Time. That was on Nov 14, 2021. His seven-year plan ends on the exact same day my timeline says the final seven years will begin. That means he will be ready for a new plan (maybe of seven years again) on the same day that the final seven years begins. More about the Pope later. 

Bill Gates has his 50in5 plan that is set to bring digital ID and banking to 50 countries in 5 years. In my opinion, this will create a fully functioning system ready and capable of serving as the mark of the beast. His plan was announced Nov 8, 2023. It will end on US Election Day, Nov 7, 2028, exactly one week before the start of the final seven years. 

The United Nations Agenda 2030 has had a bunch of different groups on different tasks, all operating on their own parameters and timeline. There is a major push underway now to bring them all together into one timeline and plan. Their efforts at unity of purpose have focused on Nov 2028 as well. They already have scheduled the second Global Stocktake for November 2028, although they don’t set the exact day this far in advance. This all revolves around Agenda 2030. I believe Agenda 2030 is the basis for the covenant that will be confirmed to start the final seven years. It is truly an all-encompassing agreement. It aims to end poverty and hunger and bring in world peace as facets of an overarching shift to green energy. Agenda 2030 was passed in 2015 on the first day of The Feast of Tabernacles and as the fourth blood moon of the 2014/2015 tetrad rose. Many of the UN meetings and declarations come on Jewish holidays. The first Global Stocktake in 2023 was the day after Rosh Hashanah. The Rio Summit and Agenda 21 in 1992 started on the 3rd of June and ended on the 14th. Pentecost (while not a Jewish holiday, it still celebrates the Passover and the Exodus and so forth) was on the7th.  The Paris Climate agreement was declared during Hannukah 2015. It goes on at length, but we will leave that for later.

Back to what the Pope is up to. 1260 days before the final seven years begins on Nov 14, 2028, is June 8, 2025. The Pope has put together some very special plans for that day and that year. June 8 just happens to be Pentecost. That is correct. 1260 days before the final seven years begins is the day of Pentecost. The Pope has declared 2025 a Special Jubilee Year and is having a first ever, online meeting called the “General Assembly and Global Encounter”, to help bring the Church into compliance with Agenda 2030. A “Pentecost of Evil”, if you will. Remember that he released his encyclical on Pentecost as well and it was early in the same year that Agenda 2030 was passed on Tabernacles.  Of course, the pope does not celebrate Shavuot.  That is too Jewish for his taste.  

The New Age Movement has been waiting 80 years for 2025. They believe a group of spirit beings, known as "The Masters of Wisdom" are ruled by an elite group known as “The Hierarchy”.  The new agers believe the Hierarchy will make themselves known during the year. Their biggest festival is a pagan version of Pentecost and requires a General Assembly of believers. It starts at sundown on June 8th, which is Pentecost. They believe that in 2025, the spirits will declare a date for their physical manifestation, known as "The Externalization of the Hierarchy". One of their leaders made this prediction in 1945 as the second World War wound down.   I think these demon worshippers have a connection with their masters that goes beyond our understanding.  The "Masters of Wisdom", as they are known, will have certainly figured out all of the things I have told you.  They knew that not long after Israel would be reborn as a nation, the count of the seven sevens would begin again.  There were quite a few people working on that well before the war ended and even before the war even started.  They had the Balfour Declaration of 1917.  On top of that they always hedge their bets when they make predictions.  Unlike God's prophetic action, the New Age leaves wiggle room.  So, it was a safe bet for them to make the prediction that the count of the seven sevens would begin within 80 years.  They gave themselves all the way to 2025.  The count started in 1980.  It would seem likely that they would have known that 80 years would put them very close to the end of the count.  The truth is that the Pope and the New Age are doing almost the exact same thing at the exact same time, 1260 days before the final seven years starts. And both of them are focused on restoring the Earth through the manifestation of spiritual realities.  The evil that the pope brings to bear is all centered around "Mother Earth".  It's just good old pagan earth worship dressed up in a robe and a big hat.   

 

The abomination that causes desolation will be set up in the Third Temple 1260 days after Nov 14, 2028. That day is April 29th, 2032. It is also Lag Ba’Omer, the 33rd day of the Counting of the Omer in Israel. There is some very interesting information about Lag Ba’Omer online. Modern Jews say they are celebrating the end of the streak of death that saw an ancient Rabbi lose 2400 of his students and/or the life/death of the Rabbi who brought the Zohar and Kabbalah to the Jews. Let me just say that I love all Jews and Israel with all of my heart. I really mean that. They will NEVER cease to be a people before the Lord. Not until the sun and Earth passes away. Further research, however, has shown a much different origin story for Lag Ba’Omer. In 363AD, the Roman Emperor Julian took sides with the Jews against Christianity. He thought that having the Third Temple rebuilt would prove Jesus wrong and defeat the faith once and for all. The Jews were very excited to hear this and made all kinds of preparations for the work. Julian allowed them to pick the date that the construction would start. Reportedly, they picked the 33rdday of the Counting of the Omer specifically to thumb their noses at the Christians and boast that they had killed Jesus at the age of 33. They believed that a man whose life was cut short had been shown to be an evil man. They also believed he was buried in a tomb in Meron. From the very first Lag Ba’Omer, it was a celebration of the death of Jesus complete with the 3rd Century Jews dancing on his supposed grave. The day the construction started, there was a severe earthquake, and flames were reported coming from under the stones and burning the tools. Don't ask me how but modern geologists have confirmed that there was a large earthquake in that area at that time.  A month later, Julian was killed in battle and the whole attempt ended abruptly. It seems to me that this is the only Jewish holiday that is based in rebellion. Keep that in mind as Daniel describes the event known as the Abomination of Desolation.  Please also keep in mind that I am not blaming the Jews for the death of Jesus.  It is true that Jews as individuals can be quite opposed to the Lordship of and title of Messiah being given to Jesus.  That is in God's hands.  It is the responsibility of every Christian to show love and respect to the Jewish people.  I pray that Hashem make his face shine upon them.  I pray that he lift them up and place them firmly in Zion where no harm will come to them forever more.  They are the natural part of the olive tree and we are the wild olives that were grafted in.  This is shown in parallel to the building of the booths for the feast of Tabernacles, called Sukkot by the Jews.  

Daniel 8:9 Out of one of them came another horn, which started small but grew in power to the south and to the east and toward the Beautiful Land. 10 It grew until it reached the host of the heavens, and it threw some of the starry host down to the earth and trampled on them. 11 It set itself up to be as great as the commander of the army of the Lord; it took away the daily sacrifice from the Lord, and his sanctuary was thrown down. 12 Because of rebellion, the Lord’s people and the daily sacrifice were given over to it. It prospered in everything it did, and truth was thrown to the ground. 

But is that the only rebellion that happens at that time? 

2 Thess 2:1NIV Concerning the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ and our being gathered to him, we ask you, brothers and sisters, 2 not to become easily unsettled or alarmed by the teaching allegedly from us—whether by a prophecy or by word of mouth or by letter—asserting that the day of the Lord has already come. 3 Don’t let anyone deceive you in any way, for that day will not come until the rebellionoccurs and the man of lawlessness[a] is revealed, the man doomed to destruction.  

KJV 2:1 Now we beseech you, brethren, by the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ, and by our gathering together unto him, 2 That ye be not soon shaken in mind, or be troubled, neither by spirit, nor by word, nor by letter as from us, as that the day of Christ is at hand. 3 Let no man deceive you by any means: for that day shall not come, except there come a falling away first, and that man of sin be revealed, the son of perdition; 4 Who opposeth and exalteth himself above all that is called God, or that is worshipped; so that he as God sitteth in the temple of God, shewing himself that he is God. 

Both the Jews and the Church will be in rebellion against God at that time. I believe that these are the people who don’t recognize that the final seven years have started. They have lost their faith and turn away because they don’t understand the times and dates. “Where is this coming that he promised?”  The foolish virgins.  Again, I want to point out that only those who can't discern that the seven years has started will be caught off guard at the time of the abomination.  Once it starts, we will undoubtedly be hearing from the two witnesses and we will be seeing their miracles.  If you can't discern it then, you may be one of the elect who is deceived by the miracles of the many false prophets that will come out of the woodwork after the abomination.

Matt 24:22 “If those days had not been cut short, no one would survive, but for the sake of the elect those days will be shortened. 23 At that time if anyone says to you, ‘Look, here is the Messiah!’ or, ‘There he is!’ do not believe it. 24 For false messiahs and false prophets will appear and perform great signs and wonders to deceive, if possible, even the elect. 25 See, I have told you ahead of time.

Let’s keep going. 1260 days after the Abomination is October 11, 2035, during the Days of Awe. That is the day that the two witnesses would be killed. 3 ½ days later they would be raised on Yom Kippur. That must not be the day that Jesus returns in the clouds because we have that date on our timeline. Nor can it be after he returns, for in that case the two witnesses would have been left out. It has to be some time after that. Here is what the Bible says about that time. 

Rev 11:7 Now when they have finished their testimony, the beast that comes up from the Abyss will attack them, and overpower and kill them. 8 Their bodies will lie in the public square of the great city—which is figuratively called Sodom and Egypt—where also their Lord was crucified. 9 For three and a half days some from every people, tribe, language and nation will gaze on their bodies and refuse them burial. 10 The inhabitants of the earth will gloat over them and will celebrate by sending each other gifts, because these two prophets had tormented those who live on the earth. 

11 But after the three and a half days the breath of life from God entered them, and they stood on their feet, and terror struck those who saw them. 12 Then they heard a loud voice from heaven saying to them, “Come up here.” And they went up to heaven in a cloud, while their enemies looked on. 

13 At that very hour there was a severe earthquake and a tenth of the city collapsed. Seven thousand people were killed in the earthquake, and the survivors were terrified and gave glory to the God of heaven. 

Part of the reason that I believe the rapture will not have happened yet is what it says in verse 13. The survivors gave glory to God. Those must be saved people. Contrast that with what it says in the bowl judgements.  

10 The fifth angel poured out his bowl on the throne of the beast, and its kingdom was plunged into darkness. People gnawed their tongues in agony 11 and cursed the God of heaven because of their pains and their sores, but they refused to repent of what they had done. 

If you count forward from the Abomination of Desolation 1290 days you come to Nov 9, 2035. That is the day that Israeli school children celebrate the crossing of the Jordan river by the nation of Israel under Joshua. I believe that the Day of the Lord will have begun and the 144,000 will follow Jesus across the Jordan River on that day but that's just a guess. If you count forward the 1335 days, you come to Christmas Eve 2035. The next day, on Christmas day at sundown, Hannukah begins.  Maybe God doesn't hate Christmas completely.  We almost certainly have the date wrong for the birth of Jesus.  It was probably chosen as the date for the wrong reasons but if you believe that you are celebrating the birth of Jesus, I believe God will honor your intentions. 

 

Rom 14:44 Accept the one whose faith is weak, without quarreling over disputable matters. 2 One person’s faith allows them to eat anything, but another, whose faith is weak, eats only vegetables. 3 The one who eats everything must not treat with contempt the one who does not, and the one who does not eat everything must not judge the one who does, for God has accepted them. 4 Who are you to judge someone else’s servant? To their own master, servants stand or fall. And they will stand, for the Lord is able to make them stand.  5 One person considers one day more sacred than another; another considers every day alike. Each of them should be fully convinced in their own mind. 6 Whoever regards one day as special does so to the Lord. Whoever eats meat does so to the Lord, for they give thanks to God; and whoever abstains does so to the Lord and gives thanks to God. 7 For none of us lives for ourselves alone, and none of us dies for ourselves alone. 8 If we live, we live for the Lord; and if we die, we die for the Lord. So, whether we live or die, we belong to the Lord. 9 For this very reason, Christ died and returned to life so that he might be the Lord of both the dead and the living. 10 You, then, why do you judge your brother or sister[a]? Or why do you treat them with contempt? For we will all stand before God’s judgment seat. 11 It is written:

 

“‘As surely as I live,’ says the Lord, ‘every knee will bow before me; every tongue will acknowledge God.’”12 So then, each of us will give an account of ourselves to God.

 

There you have it. My interpretation AND the application of the interpretation.  Let me start telling you why I believe the interpretation has been proven correct to me. The first time I saw this whole thing was in 2001. I read through the passage and just saw that there were two decrees, two periods of time that ended with the coming of two different people.  When I first saw this interpretation, I immediately recognized that it was different from what I had heard taught in church. I knew that it would be very difficult to convince people that it was correct. I also feared to say something that wasn’t true as part of my service to God. So I asked God for a sign that I had seen it correctly. I needed to know so I could present it to pastors and teachers as well as the public without fear. I had no sooner gotten the words out to ask God to prove this to me when I was caught up in a vision. I was floating over NYC at night. I was about 3x as high up as the tallest buildings and it was dark all around me. The city was lit up and there were two glowing spots at the ocean end of Manhattan. A voice said to me as I watched, “Very soon there will be major terrorist attacks on New York, Washington DC, and a smaller out of the way place that won’t amount to as much. It will not be Nuclear, Biological or Chemical. It will be something you have not seen before.” Then the scene changed to daytime, and I saw great clouds of smoke rolling through the streets and I could see people on foot running from the smoke. My view was much lower now. As I saw the smoke overtake the people I asked if it was the smoke that was hurting them. He said it was not. I didn’t see planes. All I ever saw was the aftermath. But it was exactly what I saw on TV just five days later. I had told several people about my vision. Most just blew it off but my wife remembered what I had said, and she called me that morning and said, “ It’s all happening just like you described.” I don’t have that kind of confirmation from Him on my application of the seventy sevens. But I cannot be persuaded to believe that the interpretation is incorrect. Only time will tell if my application is correct as well. Thus far it has given many signs that it’s true, but we are still watching, fully prepared either way. 

  

 

 

Counting the Days 

 

Now I would like to show you some of the other things that I have learned as a result of my search. 

 

 

  • Ok, these are all big, but this one is very big. The final seven years starts Nov 14, 2028. If you count back exactly one seven (2520 days), you come to December 21, 2021. Several things happened that day. It was the beginning of the seventh seven. It was the winter equinox. Covid was raging with the Delta variant, but on that day the Omicron variant took over and the nation was spared from further suffering from the harsh Delta variant. And, at a little Church in Texas, the announcement was made to the world that 21 red heifers that had been approved by Jewish Rabbis for the purification of the Third Temple were being sent to Israel. One of the cows was even present for the announcement. Then, in 2023 we saw Gazans invade Israel on Oct 7th. It has been noted that Hamas leaders have said that they were well aware of the red heifers and the attack of Oct 7 was largely in response to “the bringing of the red cows”. Exactly six months later the IDF pulled out of Gaza. The very next day, a total solar eclipse passed directly over the farm in Texas where the cows were raised and the church where the announcement was made. 

 

  • Hiter and Goebbels killed themselves within 24 hours of each other. That occurred on Lag Ba’Omer, April 30, 1945. 1260 days later the first Yom Kippur in reborn Israel was celebrated in 1948.   Sort of a reverse Abomination of Desolation.   

 

  • Israel was reborn on May 14, 1948. The day I have for the Abomination and the implementation of the Mark of the Beast is April 29, 2032. That is 30,666 days! If the 666 represents the mark, what does the 30,000 represent? The sons of Eli served in the Temple and were called “scoundrels” by the Lord. Eli knew of their evil but did nothing. As a result the worship in the Temple was compromised and God was not having it.  

 

1 Samuel 3:11 And the Lord said to Samuel: “See, I am about to do something in Israel that will make the ears of everyone who hears about it tingle. 12 At that time I will carry out against Eli everything I spoke against his family—from beginning to end. 13 For I told him that I would judge his family forever because of the sin he knew about; his sons blasphemed God,[a] and he failed to restrain them. 14 Therefore I swore to the house of Eli, ‘The guilt of Eli’s house will never be atoned for by sacrifice or offering.’ 

 

So, God allowed the slaughter of 30,000 Israeli soldiers in Jerusalem, allowed the priests including the sons of Eli to be put to the sword and allowed the capture of the Ark of the covenant by the Philistines. He also allowed the death of Eli and the death, in labor, of the wife of one of Eli’s sons. This allowed Samuel to take over as High Priest. I believe that this entire event is a foreshadowing of the Abomination of Desolation, and the takeover of the Temple Mount by the Two Witnesses. Day number 30,666 tells us to expect the Mark of the Beast and the fall of Jerusalem with the (possible) slaughter of 30,000 Israeli soldiers. But we should also expect a doubling of Samuel’s efforts with not one, but two prophets anointed by God.  

The 30,666 has another possible meaning.  That period of time is roughly 84 years.  It was also 84 years from the time when Ezra purified the temple in 516BC, to when Nehemiah restored Jerusalem in 433/432BC.  If you take the exact date of April 21, 516 and count forward 30,666 days you come to April 6, 432BC.  That is during Passover week.  I can't say with certainty that this date is correct.  But God does repeat patterns and use the same exact numbers when he does it, over and over again.  IF that date is accurate, then Jesus would have been born Jan 9, 4BC.  That date is the tenth of Tevet.  It is the day that the Jews remember as the first day of Nebuchadnezzar's assault on Jerusalem.  That assault ended with the First Temple destroyed and the people in exile in Babylon for 70 years.  Daniel's prophecy of the seventy sevens was given at the end of those seventy years.  If Jesus was born then, he would have been 33 years and 3 months old on Passover in 30AD.  Can't prove it but it's not integral to the interpretation.  It's also interesting to note that if he was indeed born at that time, he would have been conceived right around the time of Passover the previous year.  The fact that Jesus is aligned with the 62 sevens tells us that the Temple and it's destruction is part of who he is.  Tisha Ba'av was close to his heart.  If you combine the 62 sevens with his birth being on the Tenth of Tevet, then you would have no doubts or misunderstanding when he said, “Destroy this temple, and I will raise it again in three days.”  

 

  • Israel was reborn on May 14, 1948. It will turn 80 in 2028, the year when the final seven years starts.  Psalm 90:10  Our days may come to seventy years, or eighty, if our strength endures; yet the best of them are but trouble and sorrow, for they quickly pass, and we fly away. And Jesus said: 32 “Now learn this lesson from the fig tree: As soon as its twigs get tender and its leaves come out, you know that summer is near. 33 Even so, when you see all these things, you know that it[e] is near, right at the door. 34 Truly I tell you, this generation will certainly not pass away until all these things have happened. 35 Heaven and earth will pass away, but my words will never pass away. If it all comes to pass in 2028 that will be within a lifetime of the rebirth of Israel.

 

  • The final seven years starts Nov 14, 2028. If you go back 62x360 days from there (62 prophetic years) you come to the first Rosh Hashanah in re-born Jerusalem in 1967.  

 

  • The final seven years starts Nov 14, 2028. That is 33 days after Shmini Atzeret, the Eighth Day of Assembly. That’s the holiday that the Oct 7th attacks occurred on in Israel. 33 is a recurring number in this timeline. It is the Devil’s number in numerology.  I am not nor will I ever use numerology.  I only point it out because it is something the enemy highly esteems.  It will be used to make their plans.   The Pope started his seven-year plan on the 33rd Sunday of Ordinary time on the Catholic Calendar. Lag BaOmer is the 33rd day of the counting of the Omer and is the day of the Abomination of Desolation. The UN Climate Conference that will confirm the covenant that starts the final seven years in Nov 2028 is called COP33. It is the 33rd Conference of the Parties and it will be held in Mumbai, India. PM Mohdi is very onboard Agenda 2030. 33 is the highest level in the Masonic Order. The Masons are dedicated to rebuilding the Temple.  

 

  • The decree known as The Jerusalem Law of 1980 started the count of the seven sevens down to the final seven. It was issued 8 days after Tisha Ba’Av and 70 days after Pentecost. 

 

  • The next Shmitah year starts just before Nov 14, 2028. Rosh Hashanah 2028 is Sept 21.  That makes the first year of the final seven years a shmitah year, exactly as most scholars expect. It also means the final seven years on my timeline coincide with the seven year Shmitah Cycle, 2028-2035. 

 

  • As I mentioned earlier, Agenda 2030 was passed during the fourth blood moon of the 2014/2015 tetrad on the Feast of Tabernacles. Blood moon tetrads are pretty rare. Thats when there are two consecutive years containing four blood moons in a row with two blood moons each year. The last one was in 2014/2015 and the next Tetrad is in 2032/2033. The first blood moon in 2032 falls 3 days before the Abomination of Desolation. That is the 30th day after Passover and is celebrated in Israel as Pesach Sheni, or Second Chance Passover.  It is Passover for those who were ceremonially unclean at Passover and were thus not able to take part.  The second blood moon will fall on Oct 18, 2032.  That is also one month after a festival, namely Sukkot.  In 2033, the two blood moons fall on Passover and Sukkot, without the one month offset.  So we have the time from the passing of Agenda 2030 to the Abomination of Desolation marked by the blood moon tetrads.  The last moon of the last tetrad and the first moon of the next one, to be precise. 

 

 

  • The Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) has been working in seven year cycles. Not precisely seven years but it’s a framework. They are currently in their seventh cycle (7x7). “Looking ahead, IPCC-57 agreed that the next assessment cycle should start in July 2023 and set its length to five to seven years, keeping the door open for the Seventh Assessment Report (AR7) to feed into the second Global Stocktake in 2028.”  The seventh cycle started on Tisha Ba’Av in July 2023. If it does indeed end at the second Global Stocktake, then it will end in Nov 2028. In other words, my timeline has seven sevens ending Nov 2028 and then expecting a new seven-year agreement, and their timeline has seven cycles, mostly of seven years, and ends Nov 2028 and is expecting an all-encompassing agreement on all areas of life to be finalized, namely Agenda 2030.  

 

  • The Global Climate Countdown Clock, in it’s current iteration in NYC was started on Rosh Hashanah Sept 19, 2020.   They say it’s an estimate of the amount of time we have left before warming 1.5 degrees C. At least that is what they say. The current end date of their clock is July 21st, 2029, which is also Tisha Ba’av. The amount of time has changed every so often. On Sept 20, 2021, the first day of the Feast of Tabernacles and the same holiday that saw Agenda 2030 passed in 2015, they had set the clock to expire on July 28, 2028. That is three days before Tisha Ba’av. No wonder they changed it. On July 22nd, 2024 they will be holding a ceremony to mark less than five years to go on the clock. That is the 16th of Tammuz. The next day Israel will mark a fast commemorating the breach of the walls of Jerusalem before the destruction of the Temple in 70AD. It also marks the three weeks of mourning leading up to Tisha Ba’av. Seems like the Climate Clock is bent on destroying the Third Temple. 

 

  • At the exact middle day of the seven sevens, Sept 21, 2004, Geroge Bush gave a speech to the UN General Assembly. Among other things he said this: 

“Israel should impose a settlement freeze, dismantle unauthorized outposts, end the daily humiliation of the Palestinian people and avoid any actions that prejudice final negotiations. And world leaders should withdraw all favor and support from any Palestinian ruler who fails his people and betrays their cause.” 

I believe this mirrors the Abomination of Desolation when Judea and Samaria will be declared part of a Palestinian state.  

 

  • September 11, 2001 was not on my timeline.  I did check to see what, if anything happened on a timeline with that date on it.  I found some amazing things.  Exactly 2520 days (one seven) before Sept 11 was Oct 18, 1994.  On that day,  

“President Bill Clinton took the podium on October 18, 1994, with a speech that reads like a sigh of relief—the announcement of a landmark nuclear agreement between the United States and North Korea. “This agreement is good for the United States, good for our allies, and good for the safety of the entire world,” he assured the nation. Called the Agreed Framework, it was designed to put the brakes on North Korea’s nuclear program, and it promised to put an end to years of increasing nuclear tension, including a near war, to a halt.” 

After the Sept 11 attacks, Wall Street trading was halted until the following Monday.  Sept 17, 2001 was a Monday and also Rosh Hashanah.  The Stock market dropped 7 percent on the busiest trading day in it’s history.  Seven years later, on Sept 29, 2008, the stock market dropped 777 points, again on Rosh Hashanah.
