I don't know if anyone else has stumbled across this in doing prophecy math. This is quite simple actually.
I look at all of Daniels prophecies as dual in nature. They apply to the end of the previous age (before the Holy Spirit arrived on the scene) and to the end of this age.
Daniel 9 states there will be 7 weeks and 62 weeks. I see these as seperate time frames or it would say 69 weeks. I am assuming the 62 applies to our last days. If we take 62 years (yes, I know it says weeks, and I don't know why it would mean years (yet)) from the time of the Decree by the United Nations to form Israel (29 Nov, 1947) and add them together 1947 + 62 we get Nov 2009.
If we take the Jubilee cycle from the time Israel took control of the Holy Mountain (1967) and add 42years (the amount of time a Jubilee cycle is minus the last 7 years) we get 2009. Is it possible we start the Trib near the end of 2009?
What are the odds Israels appearance on the scene this century lines up with two of the biggest time pieces in the Bible and come out at the same year?
Everyone says the gap between the 69 weeks and the final week are unknown until it happens. What if God did put the exact time line in the Bible according to Israels existance, seems logical to me.
How many things are scheduled to happen in Nov 2009? I believe something very big with the EU if the Treaty Gets Ratified.
