Ezekiel's vision matches the 5th year of the exile of Jehoiachin (Ezek. 1:1).

7The 7th year of Nebuchadnezzar (Jer. 52:28), when the city fell, and Jehoiachin taken captive.

When was Nebuchadnezzar's 7th year in terms of the B.C. date?

B.C. dates first become absolutely certain in the Babylonian Period. The dates of pagan nations are uncertain before this, but God knew that we would be able to figure out the Babylonian and Persian dates. Therefore, he allows them to be used in the Bible.

The tablets pictured here begin, "Year 37 of Nebukadnezar, King of Babylon" and give accurate positions of Mercury, Venus, Mars, Jupiter, and Saturn. Astronomers calculated that these planets were in these unique positions only between the spring of 568 and 567 B.C.

Hezekiah's 15th and 16th years are a perfect match for the 7th year and the Jubilee. Moreover, the divine Word seems to have picked the 490th (7x7x10) 7th year to point out and the 70th (7x10) Jubilee.

British Museum Tablet no. 21901. The Babylonian Chronicle describes the fall of Nineveh in the summer of 612 B.C.

We now will look at a photo of this tablet, and then describe the important information on it.

And it shall come to pass in that day, that the great trumpet shall be blown, and they shall come which were ready to perish in the land of Assyria, and the outcasts in the land of Egypt, and shall worship the LORD in the holy mount at Jerusalem. (Isaiah 27:13)

Then shall thou cause the trumpet of the jubilee to sound on the tenth day of the seventh month, in the day of atonement shall ye make the trumpet sound throughout all your land. And ye shall hallow the fiftieth year, and proclaim liberty throughout all the land unto all the inhabitants thereof: it shall be a jubilee unto you; and ye shall return every man unto his possession, and ye shall return every man unto his family. (Lev. 25:9-10).

Does Isaiah's allusion to the Jubilee match the fall of Nineveh?

Does Isaiah's allusion to the Jubilee match the fall of Nineveh?

3528 divided by 49 = 72 remainder 0 Jubilee

Yes, it is an exact match. Liberty is proclaimed in Assyria, and is announced on Tishri 10 in Judea. (This prophecy still has an eschatological aspect yet to be fulfilled.)



The Probability of Six Accidental Jubilee Matches


• Joseph returns the land to the Egyptians: 1/49, returning the land• The cycle begins upon entry into Canaan: 1/49, counting the cycle• King Saul blows the trumpet in his second year: 1/49, the trumpet• King David takes the ark to Jerusalem: 1/49, Shofar-Teruah• God tells Hezekiah to observe the Jubilee: 1/49, living off the land• Nineveh, the city of oppression, is destroyed: 1/49, liberty

• 1/49 x 1/49 x 1/49 x 1/49 x 1/49 x 1/49 = 1 in 13,841,287,200

• That 1 in 13.8 billion.

I will save the seventh Jubilee for later.

And this brings us to Hezekiah, which we already figured out on slides 10-11. Hezekiah was corex in the 15th year of Ahaz, but his first year was not counted until the 16th year of Ahaz, when he began his sole rule. Hezekiah's 29th year was very short, and Manasseh, his son was made king at the start of that year.

Biblical Chronology Solved, Part II


The chronology of the divided kingdom to the link up with B.C. dates is completely secured by the 390 years of Ezekiel 4:5. That fact that this 390 years works out exactly from the division of the kingdom when Jeroboam I caused Israel to sin to the date of the prophet's vision clearly shows that God intended it to be a chronological check on the complicated data of the kings. This is not the only meaning of the 390 years. In fact, it is only a secondary meaning apart from its primary reference. But I will cover that in a later presentation. I cannot yet promise that there are no date typo's in this presentation. Refer to the Scroll of Biblical Chronology and Prophecy for the exemplar. Please email me if you find one, and I will fix it.

"Year 37 of Nebukadnezar, King of Babylon, Month I, (the first of which was identical with) the 30th (of the preceding month), the moon became visible behind the bull of Heaven; …Saturn was in front of the Swallow…[The 11th] or 12th, Jupiter's acronychal rising…Month II…Saturn was in front of the Swallow; Mercury, which had set, was not yet visible…The 3rd, Mars entered Praesepe. The 5th, it went out (of it)…The 18th, Venus was balanced 1 cubit four fingers above a Leonis…Month III, (the 1st of which was identical with) the 30th (of the preceding month), the moon became visible behind Cancer…At that time, Mars and Mercury were 4 cubits in front of a [Leonis…] Mercury passed below Mars to the East; Jupiter was above a Scorpii; Venus was in the west opposite Z Leonis"
