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).

DANIEL’S TIME CHART:

According to the Book of Daniel, the mystery of the 70-Week Prophecy will be revealed at the appointed time. This is a brand-new way to view the prophecy as it progressed from 444 BC to 2042*. IT IS ALL ABOUT THE MESSIAH, as written in Daniel 7:13 & 14, “The Son of Man (Messiah) came with the clouds of heaven…There was given to Him dominion and glory and a kingdom, that all people, nations, and languages should serve Him: His dominion is an everlasting dominion, which shall not pass away, and His kingdom that which shall not be destroyed.”

His First Coming was to redeem humanity from sin in 33 AD as predicted and precisely calculated using the first 69 short heptads (69 prophetic weeks or 476 years from 444 BC to 33). His Second Coming is to destroy evil permanently and bring everlasting righteousness to humanity in 2042 as predicted and precisely calculated using the last or the 70th long heptad (7 prophetic years or 2485 actual years from 444 BC to 2042).

The mathematical expressions are so beautiful and captivating. They are woven seamlessly into other prophetic numbers (476, 1150, 1260, 1290, 1335, 2300, and 2485) written in Daniel and Revelation as the only master equation, God’s prophetic equation. The entire prophecy will crash if one of the numbers is proven wrong.

Daniel 9:24: “70 heptads (or 70 sets of sevens) are decreed upon thy people and upon thy holy city to finish the transgression, and to put an end to sin,… and to bring in everlasting righteousness, and to seal up the vision of prophecy, and to anoint the most Holy.”

Only God can create these kinds of mathematical relationships among the equations with precise historical records to prove them, as illustrated on the Time Chart below. I hope you enjoy the discoveries and are in awe of His prophetic word.

*The Book of Daniel reviewed the final appointed year only, not the exact date and hour because Jesus said: no one knows that day and the hour. The Bible mentions that you know the time and the season: “Summer is near” (possibly the year).

Daniel’s 70-Week Prophecy (70 Heptads) A 2485-Year Duration:

The Book of the prophet Daniel in the Bible, written around 604 BC, contains a prophecy for the end time. It foretold a long period of 70 heptads or 70 weeks (69+1), or 70 groups of “seven” preceding the end time of human history, to put an end to sins, bring in everlasting righteousness, reward good, and punish evil. The prophecy predicts a group of seven specific events in the distant future connecting to each other for a total of 2485 years, from 444 BC to 2042.

Before reading the Bible texts below, let’s examine the original biblical word “heptad,” or group of “seven.” The original Hebrew word is שָׁבֻעִ֨ים “sa-bu-im or shabua.” Shabua means “seven” or “heptad.” When Jews use this term to refer to time, they use it as a week of days or a week of years. Therefore, a heptad could be “seven days,” or “seven years.” In other words, some of the sevens could be “7 days each,” and some of the sevens could be “7 years each.” For this 70-heptad prophecy to match perfectly with historical records, the first 69 heptads must be 69 sets of 7 prophetic days each (69x7=483 prophetic days total), and the last 1 heptad must be a set of 7 prophetic years (7x360=2520 prophetic days total).

- 70 weeks are actually 70 heptads (69 short heptads and 1 long heptad), not 70 equal weeks as translated in the King James translation and other versions.

- 1 heptad is a group of “seven,” such as seven days (or one week), seven years (or one week of years).

- 70 heptads are calculated as 69 short heptads plus 1 long heptad.

- 1 short heptad is a group of 7 prophetic days (one week of days or seven prophetic days)

- 1 long heptad is a group of 7 prophetic years (one week of years or seven prophetic years). Seven prophetic years equal 2520 prophetic days (7ys x 360 days/y=2520).

- Words in parentheses below are add-on explanations. The italic words are biblical words. This document used different Bible versions to bring out the original biblical texts’ closest meanings in both Hebrew and Greek.

Daniel 9:24-27, New International Version (NIV):

24: Seventy ‘sevens’ (69 short heptads plus 1 long heptad) are decreed for your people and your holy city to finish the 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 (Jerusalem’s Temple where God will be with man forever).

25: Know and understand this: From the time the word goes out to restore and rebuild Jerusalem until the Anointed One (Messiah), the ruler, comes, there will be seven ‘sevens’ and sixty-two ‘sevens.’ (7+62=69 sevens, or 69 short heptads of 7 prophetic days each). It will be rebuilt with streets and a trench but in times of trouble.

26: After the sixty-two ‘sevens’ (A total of 69 sevens including the early 7 sevens in Verse 25 above), the Anointed One (Messiah or Christ) will be put to death and will have nothing. The people of the ruler (The Roman & Islamic Empires) 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. (Note that the word “desolations” is in the plural form: the desolation of the land caused by Rome in 70 AD, and the desolation of Jerusalem Temple caused by the Islamic Al-Aqsa Mosque in 707 AD, which is the “Abomination that Caused Desolation” spoken by Jesus and the Books of Daniel and Revelation).

27: He (Satan or the Desolator) will confirm a covenant with many for one ‘seven’ (1 long heptad of 7 prophetic years, or 2485 actual years). In the middle of the ‘seven’ (the long Heptad or the 70th Heptad), he will put an end to sacrifice and offering. And at the Temple, he will set up an abomination (a pagan/Islamic temple) that causes desolation until the end that is decreed is poured out on him (The Desolator).”

In the original language, the “70 sevens” are “70 heptads,” or 70 groups of “seven,” not 70 equal weeks as translated in the King James Bible or other translations. A heptad can be a group of seven days or seven years. Therefore, different Bible translations prefer to keep the original word “heptad” or “seven” as it was written, such as the NIV translation above, to allow for further interpretation. The only way for the prophecy to work and to make perfect connections with other prophetic numbers provided in Daniel and Revelation is to assign the first 69 heptads to be 69 SHORT HEPTADS of seven prophetic days each (69x7=483 prophetic days or 476 solar years as calculated below), and the last heptad to be 1 LONG HEPTAD of seven prophetic years (7x360=2520 prophetic days or 2485 solar years as calculated below). In doing so, the interpretation will result in perfect mathematical connections with other numbers provided in Daniel, such as 1150 days (total of 2300 sacrifices/2, two sacrifices per day), 1260 days, 1290 days, and 1335 days. Note that in the Book of Daniel and Revelation, a day represents a year; therefore, for all calculations to work perfectly, the 70 heptads must be converted to numbers of days before doing any further calculations. A biblical year has 360 days, and a solar year has 365 days.

Let’s first review the following conversion factors that will be used for all calculations:

- In prophecy, 1 day is equivalent to 1 year (see examples in Ezekiel 4:6 and Numbers 14:34). Therefore, 1 prophetic day = 1 biblical year. Without this interpretation, the prophecy only lasted 490 actual days (24-hr days), and nothing was fulfilled.

- If all 70 weeks are 70 equal heptads of seven actual years each, the prophecy only lasted 490 years, and nothing was fulfilled at the end of 490 years (40 AD).

- 42 months is equal to 1260 days (Revelation 11:2); therefore, one month is equal to 30 days, or one year is equal to 360 days.

- 1260 days is equal to 42 months or 3.5 years, or “time, times, and half time,” or “1 year+2 years+0.5 year=3.5 years” see Revelation 12:14 & 12:6, Revelation 11:2, Daniel 7:25 & 12:7. Daniel 4:16 also mentioned “7 times”. Seven “times” means seven yearly cycles or 7 years. So, a time is a year, 3.5 times are 3.5 years or 1260 days.

- 1 prophetic day=1 biblical year of 360 regular days

- 1 biblical day or 1 day in Daniel & Revelation=1 actual solar year; therefore, the numbers given in the Book of Daniel such as 1260 days, 1150 days, 1290 days, and 1335 days are numbers of actual years or solar years.

- 1 biblical year=360 regular days (derived from 1260 days/3.5 years)

- 1 prophetic year=360 prophetic days

- 1 short heptad=7 prophetic days (or one week of days)

- 1 long heptad=7 prophetic years (or one week of years)

- 1 long heptad=7 prophetic years=2520 prophetic days, calculation: (7 prophetic years) x (360 prophetic days/prophetic year)=2520 prophetic days

- 2520 prophetic days=2520 biblical years or 2485 solar years

- 2485 solar years=2520 biblical years x (360 days/biblical year) / (365 days/solar year)

- 69 short heptads=483 prophetic days, calculation: (69 short heptads) x (7 prophetic days/short heptad)=483 prophetic days

- 483 prophetic days=483 biblical years or 476 solar years

- 476 solar years=483 biblical year x (360 days/biblical year) / (365 days/solar year)

- 1 solar year=365 days in ancient times, not 365.25 days as used in modern time

- 1 biblical year=0.9863 solar year, calculation: 1 Biblical Year=(360/365) solar year=0.9863 solar year

This document provides at least ten concrete proofs with ten equations to pinpoint the starting and ending years for each of the seven prophetic and historical periods from 444 BC to the present and through 2042, the end year of the prophecy.

Daniel and Revelation gave us a large set of numbers representing the numbers of prophetic days or actual years, such as 7 heptads, 62 heptads, 69 heptads, 70 heptads, 1150 years, 1260 years, 1290 years, and 1335 years. Since 1260, 1290, and 1335 started in the same year, one can come up with additional numbers such as 30 years (1290-1260), 45 years (1335-1290) and 75 years (1335-1260). If you are not familiar with these numbers, please read the introduction of Chapter 2 for the meanings of these numbers. Based on the above numbers and the descriptions of these events, one can plot these numbers on a time scale according to their chronological orders to determine the exact year for each event occurring and ending. From the Time Chart above, one can also derive many different equations to calculate the precise year in history for each event’s beginning and end, starting from 1967 as the first key year and plotting backward and forward according to the order of each event. Without the year 1967, none of the equations will work. Once done, use 33 AD, the second key year to confirm and validate:

- There are five equations or calculations to confirm that the starting year of the prophecy is 444 BC, exactly as found in secular and biblical records for the year 444 BC.

- Similarly, there are five equations to confirm that the end year of the prophecy is 2042.

- There are four equations to confirm that 707 is the year of the “Abomination Caused Desolation,” as found in historical records for this year.

- There are four equations to confirm 1967 is the exact year that ended the 1260 years of the “Gentiles (Islam) Controlling Jerusalem City and its Temple” as written in the Bible and occurred precisely on June 11, 1967 during the 6-Day War initiated by the Muslim nations to erase Israel from the map. Miraculously, Israel won the 6-Day War and recaptured the entire Jerusalem City and its Holy Temple site from Islam (the antichrist) forever, exactly as prophesied in Daniel and Revelation a couple thousand years ago. 1967 is the perfect “key year” for all calculations to work perfectly as God intended. Suppose the event of 1967 happened in a different year. In that case, all numbers written in Daniel and Revelation are meaningless because the master equation does not work with any other numbers other than 1967 (see Section 2.14).

- There are four equations to confirm that 1997 is the beginning of Jacob’s trouble or the final 45-year period.

- There are two equations to confirm that 33 AD is the year Jesus was crucified: one primary equation based on the 69 short heptads and one secondary equation based on the 7 short heptads.

- Before doing any calculations, one must convert the number of “heptads” to the number of days, then all numbers of days to the number of years using a day for a year as intended in Bible prophecy. There are five equations to confirm that the length of the prophecy is 2485 years. The first four equations are found in the Time Chart, and the fifth equation is found in Section 3.1 by using a different system of calculations and assumptions: (1) the long 70th heptad of 2520x360/365=2485; (2) the summation of the two consecutive periods spanning from the beginning to the end of the prophecy as 1150+1335=2485; (3) the summation of the two consecutive periods of 2410+75=2485; (4) the summation of the three consecutive periods of 1150+1290+45=2485, (5) the Antichrist’s 7-prophetic years using the Islamic calendar of 355 days per year as 7x355=2085. Each of the five calculations resulted in a total of 2485 years, which is the duration of the prophecy from 444BC to 2042AD as plotted on the Time Chart. Calculation Verification: 444+2042-1=2485 years (minus 1 for the non-zero year between 1BC and 1AD).

- Note that all these events interlink with each other by mathematical expressions among the above prophetic numbers, and if just one of these events happens in the wrong year, the whole prophecy will crash. In other words, Daniel gave us a master equation with seven unknown variables (such as a, b, c, d, e, f, and g); and the variables represent each of the seven historical events occurring throughout the 2485-year prophecy (444 BC to 2042). For the equation to work, each variable must have only one correct answer: the exact calendar year calculated for that event to occur in history as predicted and exactly confirmed by historical records for that very year. For more detail, see Section 2.14 for the 7 equations derived from Daniel’s 7 prophetic numbers (69 heptads, 707, 1150, 1260, 1290, 1335, and the 70th Heptad) to unseal the six secretly-appointed years (444BC, 33AD, 707, 1967, 1997 & 2042) and the concealed length of the prophecy. The calculations showed the concealed length of the prophecy is 2485 years, during which Satan had a plan to destroy the temple and prevent the two comings of the Messiah (33 & 2042). Unfortunately, he failed to kill the Messiah in 33 AD; therefore, he placed the Islamic Al Aqsa Mosque on the holy site to prevent the Jews from rebuilding the temple for their Messiah to come at the end of the 2485 years. Will Jesus, the rejected Jewish Messiah, return to rebuild the Temple in 2042? Is Jesus Himself the “Rebuilt Temple,” as He said, exclusively when He appears in His glory in 2042?

- There are overwhelming numbers of equations to confirm precisely with historical records regarding the seven events mentioned in Daniel and Revelation. One must conclude that this is the only way to make sense of the entire prophecy as it progressed from 444 BC to 2042. It is also the only way to make perfect connections between the heptads and the numbers provided in the Books of Daniel and Revelation as a whole.

- Finally, all pieces of the jigsaw puzzle have been fitted perfectly, as intended by the maker.

In the past, many tried to calculate Daniel’s prophecy, but all came up with wrong answers because they didn’t have the key year (1967) and the correct assumptions to do so. None of them had at least two calculations to prove. They only had bits and pieces of predictions that never came true and made no connection with the other prophetic numbers given above. As a result, they created false biblical theologies about the end time such as the 7-year tribulation theory, the one-world government, the one-world religion, the modern antichrist, or the construction of the third temple for the antichrist to desecrate, etc. None of these will come true since we are at the very end of Daniel’s prophecy. Today, the world is a multipolar world like a divided house about to come down. The only thing remaining in the prophecy is Trumpet #7. Trumpet #7 contains the seven bowls of God’s wrath, including World War III, the greatest earthquake with volcanic eruptions, and other natural disasters to conclude the human era and usher in the new era of God on Earth. Since God is still opening the door for more people to come into His kingdom, no one knows when the final wrath of God will come. However, by many calculations embedded in the Bible, we know that 2042 is the beginning of the 1000 years of peace on Earth as the Books of Revelation and Daniel revealed.

Calculations and history have confirmed that six events have happened precisely in the years the prophecy predicted. The final event will occur in 2042, with five 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). If one of the seven events occurs in the wrong year, all calculations will not work, and the whole prophecy will be invalidated. The accuracy of the calculations is 99.98%. The 0.02% uncertainty is due to the rounded-off numbers of “years” (476, 1150, 1260, 1290, 1335, 2485) provided in the Book of Daniel associated with each event period.

For the calculations to match with historical records and the description of each event, the numbers of days must be understood as the numbers of years; one DAY equals one YEAR. Therefore, the above 483 prophetic days are equivalent to 483 Bible years, and the 2520 prophetic days are equivalent to 2520 Bible years. Since these two numbers (483 years & 2520 years) are the results of the conversion from heptads to Bible years (with 360 days/year), they must be further converted to actual solar years (with 365 days/year) for comparative purposes. The conversion factor from Bible year to solar year is 360/365, not 360/365.25, as explained in the book.

Below are the calculations for Matrix #1 and Matrix #2 from biblical years (with 360 days/year) to solar years (with 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

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 God intended. Another way to determine the duration of the long heptad is to use a different system of calculation and assumption: the Islamic Antichrist’s contract to destroy the holy temple (see Section 3.1 for calculations). Surprisingly, both systems produce the same results of 2485 years duration.

By plotting the two key years of 33AD and 1967 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, 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; therefore, one can also calculate the total time of the prophecy (2485 years) in many different ways, or derive other smaller periods that are not prescribed in the book of Daniel but 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 event outside of its own appointed year will render the prophecy invalid or unsolvable.

From the 2485-Year Time Chart, one can also formulate a master equation with seven unknown variables to be solved for as described in Section 2.14. Each of the seven variables represents an unknown year on the 2485-year scale, and on which each of the events will happen exactly in its own appointed time slot as prophesized over 2500 years ago. These are prophecies in numerical formulas that have been proven exactly by historical records, and the numbers don’t lie. Only God could have planned this, and He has been communicating with us in mathematical formats that are impossible to disprove.

Note that 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. The number 360 in the conversion factor is a rounded-off number of 360 days for a biblical year; therefore, it should go with 365 (another rounded-off number for a solar year), not with 365.25. Moreover, 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 biblical year is unique, accurate, and rounded off perfectly for the entire prophetic period of 2485 years. Without this conversion factor (360/365), it is very difficult for ordinary people to precisely calculate 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. Let’s familiarize ourselves with the other prophetic numbers written in the Book of Daniel, such as 1150, 1260, 1290, and 1335. These numbers are plotted in the Time Chart above, along with other numbers derived from them and the 70 heptads.

1. 1150 days: The number of 1150 days comes from 2300 times of sacrifices, twice a day according to Moses Law, one in the morning and one in the evening: 2300/2 = 1150 days total. Some Bible translations kept the number as 2300 evenings and mornings; some mistranslated it as 2300 days. Therefore, the combination of 2300 evenings and mornings must equal 1150 days. 1150 days represent the actual 1150 years from the decree to rebuild Jerusalem (444 BC) to the time the “abomination was set up” (707 AD), as described in Daniel 8:14. The “2300 evenings and mornings” is one of the two concealed numbers that the angel told Daniel to seal up until the end (Daniel 8:26). Without this number and the other concealed number (1260), one cannot determine the calendar year when the “Abomination Was Set-Up.” Let’s call it the 1150-Year Rebuild & Desecration Period (See Section 2.2).

2. 1335 days: 1335 days are actually 1335 years duration from the “Abomination was Set-up, or the Abomination Caused Desolation” (707 AD) to the end of the prophecy (2042 AD) when the Messiah will come as described in Daniel 12:11-12. Let’s call it the 1335-Year Desolation Period (See Section 2.4).

3. 1260 days: 1260 days are actually 1260 years duration from the “Abomination Causes Desolation” (707 AD) to the time Israel took back control of Jerusalem and its Temple (1967 AD, the 6-Day War) as described in Revelation 12:6, 11:2, 12:14, and Daniel 7:25 & 12:7. The number 1260 years (time, times, and half time) is also a concealed number that the angel told Daniel to seal up until the end (Daniel 12:7-9). It is a part of the 1335-Year Desolation Period, during which Islam controlled Jerusalem for 1260 years (707 to 1967). Let’s call it the 1260-Year Gentiles’ Trampling Jerusalem and Its Temple Period, as Jesus described in Luke 21:24 (See Section 2.1).

4. 1290 days: 1290 days are actually 1290 years duration from the “Abomination Caused Desolation” (707 AD) to the starting time of Jacob’s Trouble (1997 AD) as described in Daniel 12:11. Let’s call it the 1290-Year from Desolation to Jacob’s Trouble Period (See Section 2.9).

5. 2410 days: This 2410-day period is the sum of the 1150-day period and the 1260-day period (1150+1260=2410). These two periods are in series with a total of 2410 days. 2410 days are actually 2410 years from the “Decree to Rebuild Jerusalem” (444 BC) to the time Israel took back control of Jerusalem and its Temple site (1967 AD). This period is also used to confirm the starting time of the prophecy, 444 BC. Let’s call this the 2410-Year from Rebuild to Recapture Jerusalem Period (See Section 2.3).

6. 2485 days: This 2485-day period is the sum of the 1150-day period and the 1335-day period (1150+1335=2485). These two periods are in series, with a total of 2485 days. 2485 days are actually 2485 years from the “Decree to rebuild Jerusalem” (444 BC) to the time the Messiah returns to restore Jerusalem (2042). This independent calculation confirms the 2485-year duration of the entire prophecy and the end year of the prophecy (2042), precisely as calculated early from the long heptad of seven prophetic years (2520 Bible years x 360/365=2485 Solar years, See Section 2.5/2.6). The third independent calculation for the 2485 days will be described in Section 3.1 using the Islamic calendar year of 355 days per year. The Antichrist made a “7-Year Contract with Many.” Calculation: 7 Islamic years x 355 days per Islamic year=2485 days, equivalent to 2485 biblical days or 2485 actual years.

Daniel 9:24-27, New International Version:

24: Seventy sevens (70 sets of sevens or 70 heptads) are decreed for your people and your holy city to finish the 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.’ (7+62=total 69 sevens or 69 short heptads). It will be rebuilt with streets and a trench but in times of trouble.

26: After the sixty-two ‘sevens’ (7+62=69 short heptads so far, including the 7 short heptads mentioned in Verse 25), the Anointed One (Messiah/Christ) will 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 (Satan/Desolator) will confirm a covenant with many for one seven (1 long heptad). In the middle of the seven (the long heptad of 2485 solar years), he will put an end to sacrifice and offering. And at the Temple (other Bible translations said on the wing of the Temple) he will set up an abomination (a pagan Islamic temple) that causes desolation until the end that is decreed is poured out on him (The Desolator).”

Daniel 9:24-27 King James Version, KJV:

24: Seventy weeks (70 heptads, not 70 equal weeks) are determined upon thy people and upon thy holy city, to finish the transgression, and to make an end of sins, and to make reconciliation for iniquity, and to bring in everlasting righteousness, and to seal up the vision and prophecy, and to anoint the most Holy.

25: Know therefore and understand that from the going forth of the commandment to restore and to build Jerusalem unto the Messiah the Prince shall be seven weeks, and threescore and two weeks (7+62=69 total short weeks of 7 days each): the street shall be built again, and the wall, even in troublous times.

26: And after (the) threescore and two weeks (7+62=69 weeks total including the 7 weeks mentioned in Verse 25) shall Messiah be cut off, but not for himself: and the people of the prince that shall come shall destroy the city and the sanctuary, and the end thereof shall be with a flood, and unto the end of the war desolations are determined.

27: And he (Satan/Desolator) shall confirm the covenant with many for one week (one long week of seven prophetic years, not one short week of seven prophetic days): and in the midst of the week, he shall cause the sacrifice and the oblation to cease, and for the overspreading of abominations (other translations said “and on the wing of the Temple” he will set up the abomination that causes desolation”) he shall make it desolate, even until the consummation, and that determined shall be poured upon the desolate (Desolator).

As discussed in Chapter 1, there are 70 total heptads: 69 short heptads of seven prophetic days each and one long heptad of seven prophetic years. All of the seven events in Daniel happen within the long heptad of 2485 actual years, starting from the time of the last “Decree to rebuild Jerusalem” (444 BC) to the time of the end of the prophecy or end of human history (2042 AD). Years 444 BC and 2042 are purely calculated numbers calculated from the year 1967, the end year of the “Gentiles Period of Controlling Jerusalem.” The long heptad and other prophetic numbers provided by Daniel (1150 years, 1260 years, 1290 years, and 1335 years) also confirm that 444 BC and 2042 are the correct years. June 11, 1967 event disclosed the two concealed numbers (2300 and 1260) as mentioned in Daniel 8:26 and Daniel 12:7-9. From these two concealed numbers and the event of the Year 1967, one can calculate or pinpoint 707 as the exact year in which the “Abomination is Setup,” and 444 BC is the exact year for the prophecy to start. Once 707 AD is revealed, the mathematical problem of Daniel’s prophecy is considered solved; and everything else is easy to calculate. Sections 2.1 to 2.14 in the book will verify with historical records to confirm the accuracies of these calculated years: Years 444 BC, 33 AD, 707 AD, 1967 AD, 1997 AD, and 2042 AD. The results were indisputable, with 100% accuracy for each of those years. Only God could see this far in the future, over 2500 years ago, and told Daniel to write down these dates exactly as noted in history.
