This document provides at least ten concrete proofs with ten equations to pinpoint the starting and ending dates for each of the seven prophetic-and-historical periods from 444 BC to the present time and through 2042, the end year of the prophecy. As presented in the Time Chart on Page 5, there are five equations to confirm that the starting year of the prophecy is 444 BC, exactly as found in secular historical records and the biblical historical records for the year 444 BC (See Chapter 2 for the calculations and the appendix for historical records). Five equations confirm that the end year of the prophecy is 2042. Four equations confirm 707 is the year of the “Abomination that Caused Desolation,” as found in the historical records for this year (See Section 2.1). Three equations confirm 1967 is the year of “The Time of the Gentiles Is Completed” as written in our recent history (The Six-Day War to capture Jerusalem and its holy Temple site). All historical records for these years are included in the appendix of this document. Each equation specifically pinpoints the starting year and the ending year for each of the event periods. The year 1967 marks the ending time of the “Gentiles Trampling Jerusalem Period,” which is exactly 1260 years, as mentioned by the Books of Daniel and Revelation, and by Jesus. Year 707 is the year of the “Abomination is Setup” or “Abomination that Caused Desolation.” The year 1997 is the starting year of Jacob’s trouble (Jacob is the former name of Israel). One stand-alone equation based on the first 69 short heptads, pinpoints 33 AD as the year the Messiah (Jesus or Yeshua/Jeshua/Salvation) was crucified and 444 BC as the year the prophecy started. Both of these years agree with secular historical records and biblical records. The rapture year is unknown and not calculable but should be between 1997 and 2042, the final 45 years of the prophecy or Jacob’s Trouble Period. History has confirmed that six events have already happened precisely in the years that the prophecy predicted. The final event will happen in 2042 with four independent calculations to confirm (see Chapters 2 & 3). The calculated probability just for the past five events happening in the exact years they were foretold (or foreseen by God 2500 years ago) is one chance in 100 thousand trillion (1/1017). In other words, if one of the events occurs in the wrong year, all calculations will not work, and the whole prophecy will be invalidated. The percent accuracy of the calculations is 99.98%. The 0.02% uncertainty is due to the rounded-off numbers of “years” (1150, 1260, 1290 & 1335) provided in the Book of Daniel associated with each event period. Besides the 70 heptads (69 short ones plus 1 long one), the Book of Daniel also provided other numbers such as 1150 days (total 2300 sacrifices/2 sacrifices per day=1150 days), 1260 days, 1290 days, and 1335 days. These numbers are not 24-hour days as used by other miscalculated theories such as the Seven-Year Tribulation Theory. These numbers represent the numbers of actual years or solar years for the duration of each event period described in Daniel. The 70 heptads or “70 sevens” contain two prophetic matrix numbers, 69 short heptads and one long heptad, equivalent to 483 and 2520 prophetic days, respectively. See the calculations below: Matrix #1 has 69 short heptads of seven days each or a total of 483 prophetic days. Calculation: (69 short heptads)x(7 prophetic days per short heptad)=483 prophetic days. Matrix #2 has one long heptad of 7 prophetic years or a total of 2520 prophetic days. Calculation: (1 long heptad)x(7 prophetic years per long heptad)x(360 prophetic days per prophetic year)=2520 prophetic days. Note that the Book of Daniel and the Book of Revelation equate 1260 days as 42 months, or 3.5 prophetic years or 3.5 Bible years. Therefore, one Bible year is also equal to 360 days (1260/3.5=360). For the calculations to match with historical records and the description of each event, the number of days must be understood as the number of years, one DAY is equal to one YEAR. Therefore, the above 483 prophetic days are equivalent to 483 Bible years for Matrix #1; and the 2520 prophetic days are equivalent to 2520 Bible years for Matrix #2. Since these two numbers (483 years & 2520 years) are the result of the conversion from heptads to Bible years (360 days/year), they must be further converted to actual solar years (365 days/year) for comparative purposes. The conversion factor from Bible year to solar year is 360/365, not 360/365.25, as explained later in this section. Below are the conversions for Matrix #1 (483) and Matrix #2 (2520) from Bible years (360 days/year) to Solar years (365 days/year). 1 Bible year=1 solar year x 360/365 69 Short Heptads: 483 prophetic days=483 Bible years 483 Bible years=483x(360/365)=476 actual solar years 1 Long Heptad: 2520 prophetic days=2520 Bible years 2520 Bible years=2520x(360/365)=2485 actual solar years The Book of Daniel only provided rounded-off numbers for the years mentioned above (1150, 1260, 1290, and 1335), so our calculated numbers were also rounded to the nearest years. The 69 short heptads have 476 actual years, starting from the time of the “Decree to Rebuild Jerusalem” (444 BC) and ending at the “Time the Messiah is Cut-off” (33 AD Jesus’ death). The 1-long heptad has 2485 actual years, spanning from the beginning of the prophecy (444 BC) to the end of the prophecy (2042 AD). In addition to the calculation above, Section 2.6 shows a different way to determine the 2485 years of the total time of the prophecy by adding the two following consecutive periods together: 1150 years+1335 years=2485 years in total. These two event periods are back-to-back periods spanning from the beginning (444 BC) to the end (2042). Amazingly, both independent calculations produced the same number of 2485 years. Therefore, the last heptad or the 70th Heptad must be the One-Long Heptad of 2485 actual years as interpreted and calculated. By plotting these years (444 BC, 1967 AD & 2042 AD) on a time scale with respect to the duration the prophecy assigned for each event period (476 years, 1150 years, 1260 years, 1290 years, 1335 years, 2410 years, and 2485 years), one can calculate or pinpoint the exact year in history for each event to occur and to end. These events are related and connected to each other; therefore, one can also calculate the total time of the prophecy (2485 years) in many other ways or derive other related events that are not mentioned in Daniel but mentioned in other books of the Bible. As shown on the Time Chart, each event was plotted in its own-specific time location (appointed year) as prescribed by Daniel and Revelation. Any misplaced event or any event that happened outside of its own appointed year will render the prophecy invalid or unsolvable. In other words, from the 2485-Year Time Chart on Page 5, one can formulate a set of at least seven equations with seven unknown variables such as a, b, c, d, x, y and z to be solved for. Each of the seven variables represents an unknown year on the 2485-year scale, on which each of the events will happen exactly on its own time slot prophesized over 2500 years ago. Most ancient civilizations used 365 days/year for solar cycles, not 365.25 days/year as modern civilization uses. The conversion factor from a Bible year to a solar year (360/365) already took into account leap months and leap years and is accurate enough within the 2485 years of the prophecy. Therefore, do not use the 360/365.25 factor. Number 360 in the conversion factor is a rounded-off number, therefore it should go with 365 (another rounded-off number), not with 365.25. Note that the Jewish calendar is a lunisolar calendar with an average of 354 days for lunar years and 365 days for solar years. Some of the calendar’s lunar years may have 353 days, 354 or 355 days. The Jewish calendar also has extra months and leap years for seasonal and holiday adjustments. The specification of 360 days per year is unique, accurate, and rounded off perfectly for the 2485- year period. Without this conversion factor (360/365), it is very difficult for a common person to calculate exactly the total number of days in the Jewish calendars from 444 BC to 2042 AD for the determination of the exact number of solar years. Therefore, the Books of Daniel and Revelation gave us this simplified rounded-off factor (360/365) instead of being precise and making the calculations more complex and inaccurate; and there is no such lunar year or solar year with 360 days/year. The Books of Daniel and Revelation equate 1260 days to 42 months or 3.5 Bible years. Thus, one Bible year is equal to 360 days (1260/3.5=360).
