Date of Jesus Coming Given in Bible!

Yes! It is absolutely amazing and it it true. The Coming of Jesus Christ is given in Bible prophecy in such exacting detail that we even know the exact year!!! Through thousands of years many have been waiting for the Advent (Coming) of the "Son of man" as foretold in the Hebrew Scriptures. In Jerusalem there is a buzz; a certain expectation that momentous prophetic events are about to unfold! Some of the jewish people have been searching the scriptures and they have discovered something that most have never seen: the date of Jesus Coming!!!

Daniel 9:24-26 "Seventy weeks are determined upon thy people and upon thy holy city...Know therefore and understand that from the going forth of the command to restore and to build Jerusalem unto Messiah the Prince shall be seven weeks, and three score (60) and two weeks"

The Commandment to rebuild the Jewish Temple and the city of Jerusalem came in 457 BC. The Persian King Artexerxes gave the bold command which is recorded in Ezra 7:11-28 for the Jews to leave Babylon and return to Jerusalem and rebuild Solomon's Temple. This event is even recorded on the Cyrus Cylinder discovered in Iraq and housed in the British Museum of Natural History.

In scripture God gives us the prophetic principle of "a day for a year" as expressed in Ezekiel 4:6, "I have appointed thee a day for a year." Thus 1 week equals 7 years. Therefore "unto Messiah the Prince shall be seven weeks, and three score (60) and two weeks":

If we take 457 BC, when the command went forth, and add 7 weeks (49 years) and then 62 weeks (434 years), a total of 69 weeks then we come to some significant dates in world history:

The first 7 weeks bring us to the year 408 BC. It took the Jews 49 years to restore the temple and wall at Jerusalem and it was finished in the year 408 BC. From there we move forward 434 years (62 weeks) and we come to the year 27 AD. What is so significant about the year 27 AD? The Book of Luke Ch 3 verses 1,3,22 state that in the "15th year of the reign of Tiberius Caesar" John the Baptist was baptizing in the Jordan river and in that year, 27 AD, Jesus was baptized and the Spirit Anointed Him as the Messiah!

Anointing a man for Ministry as a Rabbi (Teacher) in the Jewish economy happened when a man reached the age of 30. Jesus was anointed in the river Jordan by the Holy Spirit for a Holy work just as the Prophecy had foretold.

The Exact Year of Jesus' coming was foretold by the Prophet Daniel and yet many still deny it. Daniel expands upon this Prophecy and many others in exacting details that have been remarkably fulfilled on the exact dates and ways foretold in scripture. Nostradamus was a rank amatuer and charlatan compared to this Old Testament Prophet.

Examining the Prophecy again we see that "70 Weeks are determined upon thy people". What happened during that last week? What does it mean when Daniel 9:26-27 says "And after threescore and two weeks shall Messiah be cut off, but not for Himself...in the midst of the week He shall cause the sacrifice and oblation to cease" ? This will be the subject of our next post.
