Some Theories About Jubilees & Yeshua’s Public Ministry
SLIDE 17
Yeshua’s Jubilee Ministry 1st Coming on the 30th Jubilee 2nd Coming on the 70th Jubilee
SLIDE 18
When Was the 1st Jubilee? When Was the 1st Exodus? 2) Lunar & Solar Eclipses
Ezekiel 32:7
1) Death of Pharaoh
Exodus 15:1-4
SLIDE 19
Lunar & Solar Eclipses
(According to NASA)
1492 BC 1479 BC 1458 BC 1425 BC 1400 BC Thutmose I Thutmose II Hatshepsut Thutmose III Amenhotep L & S L & S
SLIDE 20
Which One is it?? Thutmose I 1492 BC
OR
Amenhotep 1400 BC A(c)hmose 1525 BC “Moses’ Brother” 33 Years Before the Exodus
SLIDE 21
Egyptian Exodus 1492 BC Wilderness Years 40 Conquest Years 14 Year #1 Jubilee Cycle 1438 BC Confirmation of This Date

The Talmud says, “Israel counted seventeen Years of Jubilee from the time that they entered the land until they left the land”.
Start Counting 1438 BC 17 X 49 Years 833 Start of Exile 605 BC Agrees Perfectly with Historical Accounts of the Siege of Jerusalem!!

One More “Theory”
SLIDE 31
The Jubilee Hypothesis
“Know therefore and understand, that from the going forth of the command to restore and build Jerusalem until Messiah the Prince, there shall be seven weeks and sixty-two weeks; the street shall be built again, and the wall, even in troublesome times.” Daniel 9:25
SLIDE 32
….…Rabbi Trail……
“Traditional” Teaching Says: From the Departure Command to Messiah Being “Cut Off”: 7 + 62 = 69 Shmitah Years Adjusting: 360 Day Years & No Year 0 445 BC + 69 Shmitahs = 32 AD!
SLIDE 33
The Jubilee Hypothesis
62 Shmitah Years To Yeshua’s 1st Coming 7 Weeks of Jubilees To Yeshua’s 2nd Coming
SLIDE 34
“…the command to restore and build Jerusalem…the street…and the wall”
When Does this Count Begin?
SLIDE 35
When Does this Count Begin?
Ezra 1:1-6 Cyrus: (537) Rebuild Temple Ezra 5:7-17 Darius: Rebuild Temple Ezra 7:11-26 Artaxerxes: (458 BC) Rebuild Temple Nehem 2:5 Artaxerxes: (445 BC) “…the command to restore and build Jerusalem…the street…and the wall”
SLIDE 36
When Does this Count Begin?
Ezra 1:1-6 Cyrus: (537) Rebuild Temple Ezra 5:7-17 Darius: Rebuild Temple Ezra 7:11-26 Artaxerxes: (458 BC) Rebuild Temple Nehem 2:5 Artaxerxes: (445 BC) Rebuild the City “…the command to restore and build Jerusalem…the street…and the wall”
SLIDE 37
The Jubilee Hypothesis
62 Shmitah Years to Yeshua’s 1st Coming In Order to End at 33 AD: 62 X 7 = 434 Years “Adjust” Start Date to 408 BC (The Next Jubilee after 445 BC)
SLIDE 38
The Jubilee Hypothesis
7 Jubilee Weeks to Yeshua’s 2nd Coming Starting at 408 BC: 7 X 7 X 49 = 2,401Years (& Adjusting for No Year 0) Yeshua’s Return = 2030
SLIDE 39
Conclusion
We Might Think We Know the Day….. …..but we Certainly Do Not Know the Year!!

In Chapter 4 he was told to perform a number of strange things; one of which was to lie on his side for a total
- f 430 days. Each day was to
represent one year of judgment against Israel.
