"for about a whole day". Reading from the right part way is "kaph" about = When he began to be "about" thirty.Joshua 10:12 "Then spake Joshua to the LORD in the day when the LORD delivered up the Amorites before the children of Israel, and he said in the sight of Israel, sun stand thou still upon Gibeon; and thou, moon upon Ajalon.
10:13 And the sun stood still, and the moon stayed, until the people had avenged themselves upon their enemies. Is not this written in the book of Jasher? So the sun stood still in the midst of heaven, and hasted not to go down a whole day.
10:14 And there was no day like that before it or after it, that the LORD hearkened unto the voice of a man: for the LORD fought for Israel."
NASA states on their web site:
"According to the laws of physics, there are only two possible explanations for having the Sun stand still in the sky for a day: (1) the Earth would essentially have to stop spinning on its axis...for which there is no evidence. -or- (2) the Sun would have to start moving about in the solar system in a very specific way so that it appeared to us on our spinning Earth to be standing still. There is no evidence of this occurring either."
It is easy to see moving the sun with earth's rotation is the solution.
You will see here almost all the world's ancient chronology corrected by dates of sun miracles and by the bible.
The world's chronology is so wrong, it just hangs together.
The Sun standing still at noon for Joshua for a day may have been produced by God moving the Sun around the Earth with Earth's rotation. The history and the working model are given here. Perhaps God moved the sun around the earth, to the other side of earth, and earth flowed forward into a reverse orbit of the sun half an orbit earlier at the crossing of the river Jordan, the tenth day of the first month, Sunday, February 4, 1241 BC = Palm Sunday, March 29, 33 AD.
Then half an orbit later on Joshua's long day August 10, 1241 BC God moved the sun 360° = 24 hours, and two years later He moved the sun back 180° on king Wan's dream, February 5, 1239 BC and earth flowed out of the reverse orbit of the sun.
That is, on king Wan's dream February 5, 1239 BC he moved the sun back and earth flowed out of the reverse orbit of the sun leaving no evidence, no biological or geological trace, not even any net missing time. There is no other way.
Yes, there is Joshua's long day of 24 hours longer day. Because orbit is against rotation in earth's reverse orbit, earth must speed up its orbit 48 hours a year, or there would be 367 days a year instead of 365 days, and earth must speed up its reverse orbit about 24 hours (23:20 hours) in half a year = missing time = the missing day + the sun revolving around the earth for 24 hours = the long day of Joshua 10:12 and there is the 40 missing minutes.
One half orbit of sped up time of 23:20 hours and the other half orbit 24:40 hours = this 48 hours of a sped up reverse orbit because earth's orbit is elliptical. 24 hours long day subtracted from 23:20 hours sped up orbit = the missing 40 minutes.
Earth in the reverse orbit was sped up 48 hours + the total time for the sun to move 2 X 180° and 1 X 360° is 48 hours = no net missing time.
Such as 180° February 4, 1241 BC, Joshua's long day = 360° August 10, 1241 BC and 360° February 4, 1240 BC, 360° August 10, 1240 BC and 180° February 5, 1239 BC = the sun move back and earth flow out of the reverse orbit of the sun. Two years of reverse orbit = the same 2 X 48 hours of long days, 2 X 180° and 3 X 360°.
God must have moved the sun 360° on Joshua's long day, August 10, 1241 BC, at the battle of Merom possibly February 4, 1240 BC, and again on August 10, 1240 BC.
2 X 180° that is 1 x 180° for the sun to move to the other side of earth February 4, 1241 BC and earth flow into a reverse orbit of the sun and two years later the sun move back 1 X 180° February 5, 1239 BC and earth flow out of the reverse orbit of the sun.
Then on Joshua's long day, August 10, 1241 BC, the sun must move a full 360° in 24 hours to stand still at noon time to total a 48 hours of long days each sped up two days, or we would have 367 days in a reverse orbit year.
When the NASA scientists discovered the sun on the other side of earth, I discovered it shortly after beginning to read the Chinese Classics, and surely NASA discovered it, and earth in a reverse orbit of the sun, they would discover earth could flow out of the reverse orbit at the half orbit point.
And that meant there must be 24 hours of sped up half orbit = 24 hours of missing time, or else we would have 367 days a year. Days of the year can be counted in coral. Thus, there has to be 365 days in a reverse orbit year. Thus, the 24 hours of missing time = the missing day.
The missing day story of about 24 hours appears true because of both missing time and elapsed time and earth's elliptical orbit.
One day we probably will be able to date all the days in the past to the exact minute. If the earth stopped rotating there would be 24 hours of elapsed time missing. If only the sun revolved around the earth 360° there would again be 24 hours of elapsed time missing. Simply a watch ticking would show 24 hours of elapsed time missing.
Only by moving the sun to the other side of earth, and earth flowing into a reverse orbit, and earth's orbit sped up 48 hours a year, and the sun moving back 180° and earth flowing out of the reverse orbit, and the total hours of the sun revolving with earth's rotation equal this 48 hours, does there be no net missing time.
Then when we can measure time on earth like a watch ticking, we will find no net missing time.
Thus, all the more important to how sun miracles were hidden. And more important this is the only way the sun can stand still in the sky and yet be hidden even from advanced technology.
The most important part of this discovery is all these many sun miracles God used, from the beginning of time - from before Adam - from the year of the world, Annos Mundi, A.M. 5368 BC = 5400 years to Jesus' sacrifice April 3, 33 AD, to point to his Son, to point to the life of Jesus.
There are many many verses of the Bible that speak about God's plan to send Jesus to the earth. Then there be many sun miracles marking the coming of Jesus.
Ephesians 1:4 "According as he hath chosen us in him before the foundation of the world, that we should be holy and without blame before him in love:"
Acts 15:18 "Known unto God are all his works from the beginning of the world."
From the Ancient Book of Jubilees the beginning 49 year jubile, from 5358 BC = 110 X 49 = 5390 years to April 3, 33 AD, is almost the same as the Armenian Sothis beginng year 5368 BC. 5368 BC is 108 X 50 years = 5400 years to Jesus' sacrifice.
The Sumerians developed writing in 3500 BC. Noah's flood was in 3307 BC. The book of Jubilees must have begun being written with Adam in 4672 BC, and the Armenian Sothis calendar must have been kept from 5368 BC.
4672 BC and 2222 BC were both 49 year jubiles and 50 year jubiles. 49 year jubiles to Jesus' sacrifice. 50 year jubiles to Jesus' ministry.
Adam in year 700 may be 4672 BC or 4668 BC.
From 4672 BC are 50 year jubiles to Jesus speaking on Yom Kippur, the day of Atonement, from Isaiah 61 in Luke 4 in September 9, 29 AD or October 7, 29 AD.
From 4672 BC are 49 year jubiles to Jesus' sacrifice, on the Passover, April 3, 33 AD.
In 2368 BC was Jacob at the well of the oath = 48 X 50 years = 2400 years, to Jesus' sacrifice.
From 2369 BC are 49 X 49 years to Jesus' sacrifice. 490 years = 10 X 49 years, after 2222 BC when the Chinese emperor Shun took over from emperor Yao = 1732 BC (2222 BC - 490 years = 1732 BC) when the sun stood still in the sky for 10 days in emperor Kin's 8th year from 1741 BC.
From emperor Kin's first year in 1741 BC = 500 years to Joshua's long day in 1241 BC.
490 years after 1732 BC, on the 49 year jubile, at the end of 1242 BC, Israel crossed the Jordan river into the promised land.
1242 BC was on the 49 year jubile and 1241 BC was on the 50 year jubile.
On the 50 year jubile in 1241 BC, on August 10, 1241 BC, the sun stood still at noon for 12 or 24 hours.
In the Chinese Classics the sun stood still for ten days for emperor Kin in 1732 BC, means even though there is no Chinese record of the sun standing still for ten days for emperor Yao in 2315 BC, the oral legend of Yao may be true also. Also, in Yao's canon the four stars marking the four seasons can only be true if the sun was moved to the other side of earth in April 1, 2315 BC = 10 days before the spring equinox = the four stars 1,400 years in precession more recent = could not be seen in 2315 BC.
Armenia is where Noah lived, Noah's flood being the Aral Sea in 3307 BC in year 600 from 3907 BC. Thus, this record in the Book of Jubilees the 27th 49 year jubilee, fifth week, fifth year = 1361 years, 1323 + 35 + 5, from Adam in year 700 in the Septuagint = 4670 BC = between the 49 year jubile 4672 BC and the 50 year jubile 4668 BC 700 years from 5368 BC. 4668 BC - 1361 years = 3307 BC = Noah year 600 from 3907 BC.
Fifth week, fifth year = (5 X 7) + 4 = 39 years = the 38.5 years of Jesus' life.
4668 BC + 32 years = 4700 years = 94 X 50 years to Jesus' sacrifice.
4672 BC + 32 years = 4704 years = 96 X 49 years to Jesus' sacrifice.
4672 BC + 28 years = 4700 years = 94 X 50 years to Jesus' ministry.
The sothis calendar backs up one day every four years.
The Armenian calendar begins in 5368 BC; one day earlier the year was 5372 BC.
The Septuagint:
Genesis 5:4 "And the days of Adam after he had begotten Seth were seven hundred years: and he begat sons and daughters:"
The Masoretic text:
Genesis 5:4 "And the days of Adam after he had begotten Seth were eight hundred years: and he begat sons and daughters:"
The Septuagint may have been translated from an older copy. Adam from 700 A.M., 5368 BC - 700 = 4668 BC about 4670 BC = the jubiles counted from 4670 BC.
Also, jubiles were counted from Adam in year 800, 4568 BC.
"And he went up from thence to the Well of the Oath in the first year of the first week in the forty-fourth jubilee [2108 AM]. And the Lord appeared to him that night, on the new moon of the first month, and said unto him: "I am the God of Abraham thy father; fear not, for I am with thee, and shall bless thee and shall surely multiply thy seed as the sand of the earth.."
The Ancient Book of Jubilees, p.93.
"An old Babylonian literary text describes the conduct of judges during the suspension of debts on behalf of the sun god Shamash."
The Chronological Bible, p.148.
Thus there may have been sun miracles to mark the year of the jubile = the suspension of debts.
Adam from 4568 BC are 44 X 50 years = 2200 years, or 44 X 49 + 44 years = 2200 years, to Jacob at 70 years old in 2368 BC = 2400 years to Jesus' sacrifice.
Thus, the new Armenian Sothis not 2010 AD, not 552 AD, but like the must be put back 76 years, a sothis cycle of 1460 years: 474 AD, 987 BC, 2447 BC, 3907 BC = 3900 years to Jesus' birth, 1461 years back from 3907 BC = 5368 BC = 5400 years to Jesus' sacrifice April 3, 33 AD = 5368 + 32 = 5400 years, because there is no year zero.
The end of the Egyptian sothis cycle, Exodus 12:40, the end from Jacob entering Egypt sothis year 430 from 2737 BC = April 1, 2307 BC = to the end of the sothis year 1456 in 1281 BC, was at the death of Pharaoh Merneptah, the Exodus, on the first Passover, Friday, March 30, 1281 BC 76 years further back than 1205 BC.
See The New Sothis Cycle arrangement.
The sothis calendar backs up 365 days in 1460 years = a 365.25 day year. Included in 4 X 365 is also the current complete cycle = 1461 years = 3907 BC 1461 years from 5368 BC.
The monk Dionysius, who established the year 1 AD in 525 AD, did so counting Jesus gave his life on April 3, 33 AD. Luke 3:23 states Jesus began to be about thirty. Then he began his ministry on Yom Kippur on September 9, 29 AD or October 7, 29 AD in Luke 4:18.
"In 353 Pope Liberius, chose December 25 as the date of Christ's birth to counter a pagan festival celebrating the winter solstice."
Jesus' birth day the 17th day of the 7th month would be September 19, 29 AD or October 14, 29 AD when he would again speak in a synagogue on the next sabbath.
Luke 4:31 "And came down to Capernaum, a city of Galilee, and taught them on the sabbath days."
Jesus' sacrifice on the Passover, April 3, 33 AD:
The lunar eclipse on the Passover, April 3, 33 AD:
Thus, Jesus' three and a half year ministry to April 3, 33 AD, and the assumption Jesus lived to thirty three and a half years.
Thus far all appears correct.
But Herod died about April 1, 4 BC, and Herod killed all the boys born in Bethlehem two years old and under. All told Jesus must have been born in September of 7 BC = Jesus lived 38.5 years, not 33.5 years. Jesus must have began his ministry at 35 years of age, not 30 years of age.
Jesus lived 38.5558 years from September 12, 7 BC to April 3, 33 AD = 38 years and 204 days = 14,083 days.
The monk made the mistake of counting Jesus' life from Luke's Gospel, Luke 3:23. Jesus began to be about thirty years, that is the 30th decade = 35 years.
All these sun miracles point to Jesus' life of thirty eight and a half years from the beginning of time.
Thus all these sun miracles on dates that God used to point to Jesus, to the age of Jesus. Sun miracles on years ending with X68 BC = even 100's or X18 BC = in 50 year jubiles, to Jesus' sacrifice April 3, 33 AD; years ending X45 = 38 years to X07 BC; X07 BC = even 100's to Jesus' birth September 12, 7 BC; X31 BC = 38 years from X68 BC.
Years ending in X72 BC and X22 BC in 50 year jubiles, point to Jesus beginning his ministry on Yom Kippur, September 9, 29 AD or October 7, 29 AD.
There may have been a sun miracle to begin Jesus' and John the Baptist's ministry.
In 29 AD "Empeor Guangwu of Han, 5th year of the Jianwu reign period. A guest star trespassed against YUZUO extremely closely."
East Asian Archaeology, p.130.
"On the last day of the twelfth month (11 February 141 BC) it thundered. The sun appeared purple. Five planets moved in retrograde and guarded the constellation T'ai-wei. The moon passed through the center of the constellation T'ien-t'ing."
The Grand Scribes Records, Volume II, p.213.
"the five planets moved in retrograde" is often assumed a natural occurance. However, a sun miracle is being recorded here. The planets are moved out of the way of the sun, and earth has flowed into a reverse orbit of the sun. Jupiter would appear a month earlier each year, rather than a month later each earth reverse orbit.
The constellation T'ai-wei and the constellation T'ien-t'ing occupy the north polar region, as does the YUZUO region. The sun and moon cannot occupy the northern region.
Yuzuo is the imperial throne near the Big Dipper. A sun miracle would mean the Big Dipper if pointing down at midnight in summer would point up at midnight the following summer night. A sun miracle then would be seen as a threat to the imperial throne, an occassion for a revolution. Guangwu became emperor in 25 AD and from 27 AD to 36 AD - the period looked at here - he waged war with various warlords. Sun miracles often triggered revolution in China. So he would be sensitive to a sign from heaven that could cause rebellion against him that could overthrow his kingdom. Such as this one very nearly did.
The Egyptian sothis cycle is 290 years further back than the Armenian sothis cycle.
290 year back from the Armenian sothis cycle in 3907 BC is the Egygptian sothis cycle in 4197 BC.
From 4197 BC is 1460 years to 2737 BC is 1456 years to the Exodus, the first Passover, Friday, March 30, 1281 BC pointing to Jesus' sacrifice, the Passover, Friday, April 3, 33 AD.
The Missing Day Story:
The same missing time of 23:20 hours and the same elapsed time as 24 hours and the same missing 40 minutes, missing time and elapsed time.
Earth's orbit sped up 48 hours in the reverse orbit or there would be 367 days a year = rotation against orbit. Multiply the 48 hours over earth's elliptical orbit, from the spring equinox to the fall equinox are 186.6 days. From the fall equinox to the spring equinox are 178.64 days. 186.6 + 178.64 days = 365.24 days a year = 23:30 hours sped up half orbit and 24:30 hours sped up half orbit and 24 hour long day = move the sun 360° with earth's rotation = the difference of a missing 30 minutes.
From Sunday, February 4, 1241 BC - February 29, 1241 BC is leap year, to Saturday, August 10, 1241 BC are 188.5 days, two days more than 186.6 days = 23:20 hours sped up summer half orbit, and a sped up 24:40 hours winter half orbit, a difference of 40 minutes. 48 hours sped up and 48 hours in long days = 180° + 360° + 180° = no net missing time.
The lunar calendar backs up 11 days a year = in three years has backed up 33 days = one 29.5 day month. Then a second month of Adar was added. Thus, normaly the month of the Passover = spring would be in March, but letting the calendar back up, the first month began January 25, 1241 BC.
If God were to stop the earth from rotating, He would have to start it rotating again. The ocean would drop and dry land would ring the equator.
Earth's circumference is 40075.017 km equatorial (24901.461 mi) and 40007.86 km meridional (24859.73 mi). Simply the ocean would drop about 70 kilometers or 42 miles at the equator, and the poles would be under 70 kilometers or 42 miles of water, the oceans would sweep over the coasts, if the earth stopped rotating.
Water is unstable. Oceans would over flow if earth's rotation was stopped. Earth's magnetic field would vanish. There would be winds of up to 1000 miles per hour.
Suddenly stopping earth from rotating would destroy the planet.
About four billion years ago: "The impact gave the Earth extra mass, and a lot of extra angular momentum: so much that it spun once every five hours. The earth's slightly oblate shape, squashed at the poles, exerted tidal forces that aligned the Moon's orbit with Earth's equator, and stablished it there."
Calculating the Cosmos. p.45
"Scientists Just Discovered a 1.75 Billion-Year-Old Secret About The Origin of Life."
1.4 billion years ago a day was 19 hours instead of our 24 hours long.
400 million years ago a year was 400 days = shorter days = faster spinning earth.
"A Day On Earth Stalled At 19 Hours For A Billion Years, Say Scientists" "There appears to have been a stalling, which may be responsible for a flourishing of plant life—and a surge in oxygen levels."
The earth slows one second very 18 months and one second every day in 50,000 years.
"The research suggests that a young Earth may have snatched the moon during a close encounter with a binary system." "the moon should orbit directly above the planet’s equator. Instead, the moon’s orbit is not aligned with Earth’s equator but is more in line with the sun."
"What Would Happen If The Earth Stopped Spinning?"
The centrifugal tide opposite the gravity tide to the moon may not continue in motion - its not a centrifugal tide - water is not moving, if the sun and moon stood still in the sky.
Simply, the tide would stand still while the sun and moon stood still.
The tidal height is less from the "centrifugal" side of the earth opposite the moon's gravity tide, but not much less. High tide from the moon's gravity is a measure 9 and the "centrifugal" tide on the other side of earth is a measure 8 = almost indistinguishable. See Tidal Height over 50 hours, Bridgeport, CT. - Wikipedia.
"The corresponding tidal bulge on Earth's opposite side is primarily the result of the far side water's remaining in position (being left behind) because its inertia exceeds the gravitational pull of the Moon and Sun. In effect, from this inertial point of view, as the nearside water and the Earth are drawn toward the Moon and Sun, the farside water is left behind because of the slightly weaker gravitational pull. This arrangement produces the two opposing tidal bulges on opposite sides of Earth."
Geosystems, by Robert W. Christopherson, p.467.
Thus, ocean tides may continue as normal. There is a tide nearest the moon, and a "centrifugal" tide furthest the moon. The sun and moon moved 180° the "centrifugal" tide would become the gravity tide without a trace.
The moon pulls on the earth as the earth rotates. The ocean on the side facing the moon has the greatest tide. The ocean on the other side of the moon has a lesser tide about 90% of the moon's tide. Simply, the ocean facing away from the moon is water left over from the moon's pull. The water is drained from the sides of the earth to leave water behind the earth to pool to form a tide that is 90% of the moon's tide.
Also, moving the moon nearer or further or up or down after moving the moon 180° around the earth may help keep the resulting tide the same as the tide would have been.
The moon's gravity tide is larger than the "centrifugal" tide on the far side. There are notable tides in history such as the Bay of Fundy high tide about 3400 years BP; Before Present, before 1950 = 1450 BC.
The eruption of Santorini in 1658 BC was followed by more eruptions to a great eruption in this 1450 BC.
The ocean level was 3 meters lower than present day 5000 years ago and continued a general trend up till this present time. So, remnants of the affects of sun miracles on earth's tide may be burried and hard to get.
On December 27, 2023 AD, there was an ocean storm that hit Vancouver Island with waves up to several meters high. These waves could wash away any evidence of unusual tides.
Proverbs 8:27 "When he prepared the heavens, I was there: when he set a compass upon the face of the depths."
The bristlecone pine survived the global catastrophe at 3500 BP (1550 BC). = the eruptions of the volcano Santorini.
"Sea level may have been higher than it is now just 6000 years ago."
Sea level was 400 feet lower 20,000 years ago.
Thus, the precision to detect subtle differences in tides seems to be lacking.
BP or Before Present is years before nuclear invention in 1950 and applies to radio carbon dating, which is very approximate.
"How a nearby supernova left its mark on Earth life"
Then when God moved the sun back 180° and earth flow out of the reverse orbit of the sun, the ocean tide would match the moon's gravity just as before.
"if the sun moon system were not moving" = if the sun and moon were moved with earth's rotation, the tide on either side of earth would stand still = no centrifugal force on the side, on the bulge, opposite the moon.
Thus, this opposite tide is not centrifugal forces. The sun and moon standing still in the sky the tide on the near side and far side of the moon would stand still. There is no momentum of centrifugal force.
Moving the sun and moon to set in the east and rise in the west would affect tides. There may be less of an affect if the sun and moon were moved the 180° within 30 or 40 minutes - less time for gravity to build a tide. And perhaps match the "centrifugal tide" 180° away.
If the earth was one inch closer to the sun at all times, earth would be .1° Celsius warmer.
Thus, God moving the sun around the earth with great care.
There was a massive sun storm 2610 years ago, from 2019 AD = 591 BC, that was ten times stronger than any event in the last 70 years. Ice samples reveal three massive sun storms in the last 3000 years, March 11, 2019.
2 Kings 25:8 "And in the fifth month, on the seventh day of the month, which is the nineteenth year of king Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon, came Nebuzaradan, captain of the guard, a servant of the king of Babylon, unto Jerusalem: 25:9 And he burnt the house of the LORD, and the king's house, and all the houses of Jerusalem, and every great man's house burnt he with fire."
God moving the sun around the earth at near the speed of light = time stops on the sun = the darkness at noon on Jerusalem, Saturday, September 7, 591 BC, the solar eclipse record in China for day 40 of cycle 60 - that was not a solar eclipse, may mean extra stress on the sun may have caused a massive solar storm.
There can be no solar eclipse on the seventh day of the lunar month.
That is, on the spring or fall equinox magnetic storms hit earth strait on, instead of glancing away. There seem to be many sun miracles on the spring or fall equionx, when God may move the sun to the other side of the earth without moving the sun up or down to keep earth in the same season. The first month the Passover month in spring and six months later in fall = the seventh month = the new year, and the day of Atonement = Yom Kippur, and the feast of tabernacles.
One would picture a "centrifugal tide" on the opposite side on earth of the moon. That is, the sun and moon suddenly moving 180° would match the "centrifugal tide". The "centrifugal tide" should continue to move across the globe. The sun and moon moving 360° in 24 hours would match the gravitational tide again. The sun and moon moving 180° in 12 hours with earth's rotation would match the "centrifugal tide".
However, there is no centrifugal tide = the ocean is not moving with the tide. If the sun and moon stopped in the sky the tide opposite should also stop. Simply the gravity pull of the sun and moon should remain unchanged.
God that could move the sun could also make the tide appear normal.
If earth's rotation per day was slowed by just one minute, the oceans at the equator would be 800 feet lower. Rather than to hold earth together and still for 24 hours, to move the sun around the earth is much more practical. In an old Bible encyclopedia is stated that God must have moved the sun to make the sun stand still in the sky rather than stop earth from rotating. In the NASB Study Bible it states that "The earth actually stopped rotating or, more likely, the sun moved in the same way to keep perfect pace with the battle field. The moon also ceased its orbiting."
A footnote states the sun stood still for a day, either 12 hours or 24 hours.
Thus, God may have moved the sun to stand in the middle of the sky for either for 12 hours or 24 hours. Either earth flowed out of or into a reverse orbit, or earth continued in a reverse orbit, or out of and back into a reverse orbit.
The sun must move with earth's rotation 12 hours and earth flow into or out of a reverse orbit of the sun. Or the sun must move with earth's rotation 24 hours and earh continue in a reverse orbit of the sun.
Earth rotates 1000 miles per hour, 1600 kilometers per hour, at the equator. If the earth stopped rotating people would fall over and could not fight a battle. A continuous watch would show days of elapsed time unaccounted for.
If earth were to stop rotating: earth's atmosphere would continue at 1000 miles per hour at the equator, worse than any hurricane. If earth stopped rotating the winds at the equator should also afterwards stop and the coriolis effect would stop as well. The equator spins so that winds spin in a circle, clockwise north of the equator and counterclockwise south of the equator.
If the earth stopped rotating the coriolis wind would stop as well.
Yes, there is no evidence earth stopped rotating because God must have moved the sun to make the sun stand still in the sky. There is no evidence the sun burned out when the sun was darkened in the Bible because God again must have moved the sun, this time just under the speed of light 670,616,629 miles per hour.
Luke 12:54 "And he said also to the people, When ye see a cloud rise out of the west, straightway ye say, There cometh a shower; and so it is."
1 Kings 18:42b "And Elijah went up to the top of Carmel; and he cast himself down upon the earth, and put his face between his knees,
18:43 And said to his servant, Go up now, look toward the sea. And he went up, and looked, and said, There is nothing. And he said, Go again seven times.
18:44 And it came to pass at the seventh time, that he said, Behold, there ariseth a little cloud out of the sea, like a man's hand. And he said, Go up, say unto Ahab, Prepare thy chariot, and get thee down, that the rain stop thee not.
18:45 And it came to pass in the mean while, that the heaven was black with clouds and wind, and there was a great rain. And Ahab rode, and went to Jezreel."
Luke 4:25 "But I tell you of a truth, many widows were in Israel in the days of Elias, when the heaven was shut up three years and six months, when great famine was throughout all the land;"
From the first year of Ahab in 948 BC three and a half years to 945 BC. The 38 years of Jesus backwards to 907 BC, 900 years to Jesus' birth. This three and a half years = Jesus' ministry.
948 BC was a 49 year jubile to Jesus' sacrifice, 20 X 49 = 980 years from 948 BC to April 3, 33 AD.
Joash became King of Judah in 907 BC at seven years of age. This is like Jesus born about September 12, 7 BC and Jesus would be seven years old in 1 AD. Thus, our counting the year of the Lord, Annos Domini from 1 AD when Jesus was already seven years old.
Seven years after Noah's flood in 3307 BC was the 49 year jubile in 3300 BC. This, again is like Jesus' birth September 12, 7 BC and not in 1 AD.
Earth's rotation at 1000 miles per hour at the equator creates a wind blowing east to west. Then, the wind circles back at the northern latitudes and brings the clouds "out of the west".
If earth was to stop rotating, earth's inner core would continue to spin, tearing earth apart.
Scientists Detect Surprise Structures Wrapped Around Earth's Core
Here you see a picture of Jupiter. Note that the planet is wider at the middle, the equator. Jupiter rotates once every ten hours at 28,000 miles per hour, 43,000 kilometers per hour. Earth rotates at 1,000 miles per hour, 1,600 kilometers per hour, one rotation every 24 hours.
Saturn too is wider at the middle, 10% wider, rotating 75,000 miles = 121,000 kilometres, every ten hours.
A person standing on the north pole that weighs 150 pounds, would weigh 149 pounds at the equator, because of earth's spin of 1000 miles per hour at the equator.
Stopping time does nothing. If time is stopped on earth, then no time passes, no battle is fought. Reversing time is total nonsense.
2 Kings 20:11 "And Isaiah the prophet cried unto the LORD: and he brought the shadow ten degrees backward, by which it had gone down in the dial of Ahaz."
God must have moved the sun backwards, not time went backwards. And the sun must go ten steps backwards = ten hours on a sundial, not 10° of a 360° circle. The sun must have been moved at least 180°.
Moving the sun back and forth has the net effect of no net missing time. A continuous watch, from before the sun miracle and one year after when the sun moved back, would show no missing time. God moving the sun makes far more sense.
God moving the sun is heavy lifting.
Joshua 10:8 "And the LORD said unto Joshua, Fear them not: for I have delivered them into thine hand; there shall not a man of them stand before thee."
Joshua must have been encouraged by the LORD.
God must move the moon when he moved the sun. That is, the moon's rotation locked in on the moon's orbit making only one side of the moon ever visible from earth. This means if in ancient times earth saw the other side of the moon, that means the sun must have been moved to the other side of earth and the moon moved to the other side of earth = earth seeing the far side of the moon.
There is no dark side of the moon. The far side gets just as much sun light as the near side. We only see the near side of the moon because the moon's rotation with the earth is tidal locked. The far side is much rougher = more crater impacts. The rabbit, or frog, look of the moon may be ancient witnesses of seeing the far side of the moon when the sun and moon were moved to the other side of the earth.
The princess Chang E is said to have ascended to the moon, perhaps describing the far side of the moon seen from China after Yao's long day, April 1, 2315 BC.
Far side of the Moon See picture on Wikipedia.
The far side, the moon on the far side, the sun on the other side of the earth.
The same side of the moon always faces the earth. Even on a new moon we can see earth shine on the same side. The moon is tidely locked. The tug and pull of gravity makes one side face the earth. The moon rotates every 29 days = the moon orbits every 29 days.
When God moved the sun to the other side of earth he had to move the moon to the other side of the earth. Rotating the moon to make the same side face the earth would disturb the dust on the face of the moon.
To turn the moon in 12 hours means to start a 180° rotation and stop it 12 hours later. Then a year or two later, to start to turn the moon and 12 hours later to stop.
The moon would have to be rotated 180° in twelve hours. Move the moon to the other side of the earth and we see the far side of the moon.
The moon would be tidally locked the one side, the far side, facing the earth for the year or two earth was in the reverse orbit.
Like stopping the earth's rotation, rotating the moon to make the same side of the moon face the earth would disturb the moon's dust on its surface.
Therefore, when God moved the sun to the other side of the earth, he must move the moon to the other side of the earth too, and we see the far side of the moon.
The far side = reality.
Only God can create life.
That God moved the sun to the other side of the earth and earth flowed into a reverse orbit may become the next greatest evidence of Creation.
I invite you to do the math. This model makes specific predictions that match ancient astronomical records. The more you look into this model and solution, the more you will see this is the true solution. This is not something that does not stand up to a little scrutiny. The model works perfectly. These dates were fairly easy to calculate because they all point to Jesus. And in that these dates all point to Jesus, this is not making it up.
There can only be one truth. Only one date can be right. Most importantly this is the big picture.
2 Corinthians 11:3 "But I fear, lest by any means, as the serpent beguiled Eve through his subtilty, so your minds should be corrupted from the simplicity that is in Christ."
These dates pointing to Christ cannot be made more simple.
The Exodus on March 30, 1281 BC would have begun the 50 year jubile when that year Israel was to conquer Palestine. Then there was 40 years to Joshua's long day, either Saturday August 24, 1241 BC or Saturday, August 10, 1241 BC, that begins the 50 (and 49) year jubile, to the captivity September 7, 591 BC - 70 years to August 17, 521 BC, 50 year jubiles again unto Jesus beginning his ministry, the tenth day of the seventh month, Yom Kippur, Saturday, September 10, 29 AD.
Thus, Jesus began his ministry on new years eve.
49 year jubiles from 1281 BC to Jesus' birth in 7 BC. 182 X 7 = 1274 years = 26 X 49 years.
God must have planned the 50 year jubile to be in years X21 BC and X71 BC to Jesus' fulfillment speaking on Yom Kippur, Friday, September 9, 29 AD or Friday, October 7, 29 AD. Thus, the Exodus Friday, March 30, 1281 BC needed a ten year adjustment for the jubile to be on a year X71 BC or X21 BC from X81 BC and a 70 year adjustment from X41 BC or X91 BC..
Only on a jubile year did the year begin on the tenth day of the seventh month. Other years the new year began on the first day of the seventh month, Rosh Hashanah.
From Yom Kippur Friday, October 7, 29 AD is three and a half years to Jesus' sacrifice April 3, 33 AD.
For there to be 3 X 365 days + 178 days from October 7, 29 AD, to Sunday, April 5, 33 AD = Jesus' resurrection, there would need to be additional long days at both the year end dates and the half orbit dates adding up to 3.5 X 48 hours = 168 hours.
Three and a half reverse orbits to when the sun can move back and earth flow out of the reverse orbit of the sun April 3, 33 AD.
Two years of reverse orbit = both a 12 hours longer day at the end of the seven days of unleavened bread of the Passsover April 3, 31 AD, and a 7 X 12 hours, 84 hour, longer day/night April 3, 33 AD.
Two half reverse orbits, sped up winter orbits. Half a reverse orbit equals 24 hours. A sped up half reverse orbit equals 23:30 hours = a gap of half an hour. God may move the sun 180° or 360° at the half or full reverse orbit points = 24 hours long days and 23:30 hours sped up earth = 30 minutes missing. 30 minutes X 2 = one hour. Then time on earth and time on the sun would be equal.
The sun moved around the earth at the speed of light takes 53 minutes or 55 minutes. To continue for one hour, the sun over shoots the 360°. The difference of 5 minutes less than an hour is equal to the sun appearing at the 3 PM position on a sun dial instead of the 1 PM position, 55 minutes later. 60 minutes compared to 24 hours, 5 less minutes = 2 hours. 1 hour plus 2 hours = dark from noon to 3 PM on a sundial.
Picture a 24 hour dial and a 12 hour clock. 12:55 PM on the dial will match 5 less minutes, will match 2 less hours.
The difference from time on earth to time on the sun is one less hour for time on the sun because time stops at the speed of light.
Two half reverse orbits of 23:30 hours leaves one hour of missing time on earth that equals the one hour on the sun that time stopped.
Two half reverse orbits may be from October 29 AD to April 30 AD, and from October 30 AD to April 31 AD.
Then, two years of reverse orbit from April 3, 31 AD to April 3, 33 AD. Thus, the reverse orbit continue from April 3, 31 AD to April 3, 33 AD.
There may be a sun miracle on Yom Kippur October 7, 29 AD.
The civil year begins the first day of the seventh month. But on a jubile year, the civil year begins on the 10th day, on Yom Kippur, of the seventh month.
Thus, the 50 year jubile, day ten of the seventh month, Friday, September 9, 29 AD, or Friday, October 7, 29 AD, would begin the year instead day one of the seventh month September 1, 29 AD = Jesus reading Isaiah 61 in Luke 4.
The 70 years of captivity counted for all the seventh fallow years that were not observed = 490 years from 1081 BC from David. Thus, the fallow years would be this 49th year = 28 AD and the 50th year be this Yom Kippur, Friday, September 9, 29 AD, or Friday, October 7, 29 AD.
God made this adjustment with 40 years in the wilderness from 1281 BC to 1241 BC, then 70 years captivity from 591 BC to 521 BC = X21 BC in 50 year jubiles to 29 AD. 40 + 70 = 110. 1281 BC - 110 years = 1171 BC = X21 BC 50 year jubiles to Jesus' ministry. Adam born in year 700 in 4672 BC also = 50 year jubiles to Jesus' ministry, Friday, September 9, 29 AD or Friday, October 7, 29 AD. From 4672 BC are 96 X 49 years, 4704 years, jubiles to Jesus' sacrifice April 3, 33 AD.
Adam born 4672 BC = 96 X 49 year jubiles to Jesus' sacrifice. Adam and Eve had no children till the first jubile 4623 BC = 95 X 49 year jubiles to Jesus' sacrifice and 93 X 50 year jubiles to Jesus speaking from Isaiah 61 in Luke 4.
Back from Joshua's long day in 1241 BC, back 490 years from 1242 BC to 1732 BC to when the sun stood still for ten days in the 8th year of emperor Kin, back 490 years to 2222 BC the first year of emperor Shun = 2250 years = 45 X 50 years, to Jesus speaking on Yom Kippur, Friday, September 9, 29 AD, or Friday, October 7, 29 AD = back 5 X 490 years, or 50 X 49 years, to this 4672 BC.
Emperor Shun's first year was 56 of cycle 60, not 2042 BC but 180 years further back, in 2222 BC = 50 year jubiles to Jesus speaking from Isaiah 61 in Luke 4 on October 7, 29 AD, and 49 year jubiles to Jesus' sacrifice, April 3, 33 AD .
Emporer Shun's 14th year was 2207 BC = 2200 years to Jesus' birth in 7 BC.
Forward from 1242 BC 490 years to the death of King Uzziah, forward 490 years and 49 years and 49 years to Hanukkah in 164 BC and forward 49 years and 49 years to 66 BC, about 68 BC = 100 years to Jesus' sacrifice, forward 49 years to 17 BC and Herod began to rebuild the temple, forward 49 years to Jesus' sacrifice.
"Adam and Eve had no children till the first jubile"
The Ancient Book of Jubilees. p.22
From the crossing of the Jordan by the children of Israel in the 10th day of the first month, February 4, 1241 BC, perhaps a long day for all of them to cross; 188 days later is Saturday, August 10, 1241 BC. Thus, the same proportion of 24 hours for the long day; 188/365.24 = .5147; X 48 hours = 24.707 hours; .707 X 60 = 42 minutes; therefore 23:20 hours + 24:40 hours = 48 hours.
Numbers 20:1 "Then came the children of Israel, even the whole congregation, into the desert of Zin in the first month: and the people abode in Kadesh; and Miriam died there, and was buried there."
The sun may have moved to the other side of earth one year earlier at Miriam's death, the same day of the year, the first day of the first month, Saturday, February 4, 1242 BC or the first day of the week, the first day of the month, of the first month, Sunday, February 5, 1242 BC.
February 4, 1242 BC was the new moon on the sixth day of cycle 60, perhaps the sun moved to the other side of earth that day. Then three years later, February 5, 1239 BC on day 24 of cycle 60, on day six of the lunar day on king Wan's dream, the sun move back and earth flow out of the reverse orbit of the sun.
So, a day six of cycle 60, three years later on the same day a day six of the moon. Also, the six day moon would be the sixth lunar constellation of the 28 lunar constellations of the zodiak - Scorpius where the moon and planets were, was six signs from Corvus the first of the 28. From the first sign Jue in Virgo/Leo is six signs is Wei of Scorpius:
In king Wan's dream, February 5, 1239 BC, the sun in the first sign Jue in Virgo/Leo and the moon and planets above in the sixth sign of Wei of Scorpius.
Four years later, February 5, 1238 BC is the full moon and Passover.
Thus, three years later, February 5, 1239 BC is the six day moon and king Wan's dream when the sun was in Virgo in February!
And this in the first month of spring!
Adam was a real person and must have been J-M267 from South Asia from 4672 BC. J-M267..Out of its native Asian Continent J-M267 is 46% of Cohanim, about 30% from Aaron born 1363 BC, and 46% from Abraham. Of course Aaron is included with Abraham. Then from Adam in 4672 BC in South Asia, to Noah at the Aral Sea where was Noah's flood in 3307 BC.
The sun may rise in the west and set in the east, the 10th day of the month (Joshua cross the Jordan the 10th day the first month Sunday, August 4, 1241 BC), Saturday February 9, 3307 BC, Noah enter the ark one week later, February 16, 3307 BC, the ark rest the 17th day of the 7th month, Saturday, August 17, 3307 BC (a type of Christ's birth the 17th day 7th month September 12, 7 BC), the sun return one year later, Sunday, February 9, 3306 BC and Noah leave the ark Sunday, February 16, 3306 BC (a type of Jesus' resurrection Sunday, April 5, 33 AD).
Nevertheless, on Joshua's long day the sun may have risen in the east, stood still in the sky at noon for 24 hours, then set in the west, and earth continued in a reverse orbit of the sun.
Here you see a 17 day moon. Note it is a few days after the full moon, two or three days after the 14 or 15 day moon. Thus, the moon is not a circle. This picture was taken at 9 AM August 15, 2022, an hour before the moon set in the west.
The resurrection Sunday, April 5, 33 AD would see the sun as brilliant as seven suns, rise in the east = this 17 day moon still visible in the west, become as brilliant as the sun reflecting the light of seven suns.
Genesis 8:4 "And the ark rested in the seventh month, on the seventeenth day of the month, beside the mountains of Ararat."
"until the 14th day of the 7th month on the 3d day of the week."
The Dead Sea Scrolls, 4Q252.
August 13, 3307 BC was both the third day of the week, Tuesday, and the 14th day of the lunar month = the full moon. Then the 17th day of the 7th month should be Friday, August 16, 3307 BC. 186 days back from August 16, 3307 BC = February 11, 3307 BC. 150 days back from the Armenian sothis new years possibly July 11 is Saturday February 9, 3307 BC and is two weeks before the 17 lunar day Saturday, February 23, 3307 BC.
"Frags. 29-32 col, VIII 1 "and the peace of God be with you, Israel..
2 The seventeenth of the month, in the evening, they shall bless.."
The Dead Sea Scrolls Translated.
Luke 2:8 "And there were in the same country shepherds abiding in the field, keeping watch over their flock by night.
2:9 And, lo, the angel of the Lord came upon them, and the glory of the Lord shone round about them: and they were sore afraid."
If God moved the sun to the other side of the earth the night Jesus was born in September 12, 7 BC, then Arcturus would appear directly above Bethlehem that night.
The rain when Noah entered the ark may have been an atmospheric river. See "What are atmospheric rivers, and how are they affecting the B.C. floods?
Then to Abraham born 2607 BC, from Ur where was J1e in 2600 BC, Ur a city from 2700 BC, then to Jacob into Egypt in 2307 BC. This one father of the Jewish people was from 2300 BC according to the J1e Y-DNA = Jacob in 2307 BC.
That is, Jacob entered Egypt April 1, 2307 BC and Jacob called the father of Israel was born 2437 BC = 2200 BC + or - 150 years.
The first king of Ur lived in the 26th century, 2600 BC.
The 49 year jubile continued without interruption from Adam in year 700 in 4672 BC, to Joshua's conquest in 1241 BC, to Jesus' sacrifice April 3, 33 AD.
From the Armenian sothis, not 2012 AD 1460 years to 552 AD, but 1460 year cycles, 76 years further back, to 474 AD, and to 1460 year cycles to the year of the world, Annos Mundi, from 5368 BC, 700th year, 700 A.M. = Adam in 4668 BC - 4672 BC.
Pharaoh Merneptah died not in 1205 BC but 76 years further back at the end of the Egyptian sothis cycle in 1281 BC. Likewise the Armenian sothis cycle dates must be put 76 years further back - not 552 AD but 474 AD / 476 AD.
The Armenian sothis cycle: 5368 BC less 1461 years to 3907 BC less 1460 years to 2447 BC less 1460 years to 987 BC less 1460 years to 474 AD.
From the Hebrew:
Genesis 5:4 "And the days of Adam after he had begotten Seth were eight hundred years: and he begat sons and daughters:"
From the Greek Septuagint:
Genesis 5:4 "And the days of Adam after he had begotten Seth were seven hundred years: and he begat sons and daughters:"
From Adam in the Septuatint, in year 700 = 4668 BC are 94 X 50 years to Jesus' sacrifice. From Adam in 4672 BC are 96 X 49 years to Jesus' sacrifice. The sothis calender moves back one day every four years.
Knowing what you know and what you do not know is important.
The Exodus was Friday, March 30, 1281 BC at the end of the 1456 years in the Sothis cycle = the sun backs up one day every 4 years = no February 29 = 4 X 365 days = 1460 years, less one day 1456 years. The Exodus on the anniversary of Jacob and Israel enterning Egypt on sothis new year 430 from 2737 BC = 2307 BC. 430 / 4 back from July 16 = new years April 1, 2307 BC. 40 years in the wilderness to 1241 BC, Joshua and Israel crossing the Jordan river, February 4, 1241 BC and Joshua's long day that summer.
Abraham's father Terah died in year 205 when Abraham was 75. 205 years from 2737 BC is 2532 BC, less 75 years = Abraham born in 2607 BC.
Genesis 11:32 "And the days of Terah were two hundred and five years: and Terah died in Haran."
Genesis 12:4 "So Abram departed, as the LORD had spoken unto him; and Lot went with him: and Abram was seventy and five years old when he departed out of Haran."
The sothis cycle from 2737 BC to the end of the 430 years the end of the sothis cycle 1281 BC was 1456 years.
Exodus 12:41 "And it came to pass at the end of the four hundred and thirty years, even the selfsame day it came to pass, that all the hosts of the LORD went out from the land of Egypt."
The Exodus, Friday, March 30, 1281 BC was the end of the 1456 year sothis from 2737 BC. Jacob entered into Egypt in 2307 BC in year 430 from 2737 BC. The end of the 430 years was the end of the sothis in 1281 BC from the sojourn in year 430 in 2307 BC.
From 2737 BC to Tera, Abraham's father's death in year 205 = 2532 BC. From Abraham's birth in 2607 BC to Abraham leaving Ur and Haran = 2532 BC.
Abraham lived 100 more years to 2432 BC to be 175 years old.
"This value would drop to about 1456 calendar years by the Middle Kingdom."
The 40 years in the wilderness from 1281 BC to Joshua's long day August 10, 1241 BC, 40 years later.
The moon should be setting in the west in the Ajalon valley while the sun was at noon = August 10, 1241 BC. The sun may move at half orbit points, from February 4 to August 10 is half an orbit, is 188 days that equal the 24 hours and the 40 minutes in the Missing Day Story.
"But the vernal mansions go to the west and the autumnal ones to the east, reversing the previous directions of these two seasons, and in opposition to the prevailing notion of the Chinese that the spring belongs to the east, etc. This discrepancy does not seem however to trouble their minds at all, and we may safely leave it unexplained."
The Chinese Classics III p.95
Here you can see spring is in the east! You can see the Chinese character for Fang/Scorpius directly east. For the sun to be in Scorpius in spring, right away we have a reverse orbit!
Likewise, each year in this reverse orbit, spring would be in the east. Thus, "the prevailing notion of the Chinese that the spring belongs to the east."
Today Scorpius is in November/December instead of September because of the precession of the equinoxes = 360° in 26,000 years. Thus, in the 4,300 years since emperor Yao in 2300 BC is equal to the slight change of the zodiac of two months.
In king Wan's dream the sun was in Virgo, the planets moved aside to Scorpius. Again Spring is in the east. King Wan's dream February 5, 1239 BC and Spring March 30, 1239 BC. In Yao's day 2315 BC Spring was April 11, 2315 BC.
Yao's first year is recorded 13th of cycle 60 in 2325 BC. Here I have used the date 2315 BC = ten years more recent.
If Yao's first year was 2325 BC, then his 19th year would be 2307 BC = Israel's sojourn into Egypt.
"In his first year. which was ping-tsze (13th of cycle 60 = 2145 BC + 180 years = 2325 BC), when he came to the throne, he dwelt in K'e; and commanded He and Ho to make calendaric calculations and delineations of the heavenly bodies. In his 5th year, he made the first tour of inspection to the four mountians. In his 7th year, there was a k'e-lin. In his 12th year, he formed the first standing army. In his 15th year, the chief of K'eu-sow came to make his submission. In his 19th year, he ordered the minister of Works to undertake the regulation of the Ho.."
The Chinese Classics, p.112.
Nevertheless, Yao's reign of 97 years from 2315 BC and Shun's reign of 50 years, matches emperor Yu's reign from 2169 BC.
The seven years of famine in Egypt began in 2308 BC. A loss of rain in Egypt may equal an abundance of rain in China, the river Ho then would overflow. "In his 19th year, he ordered the minister of Works to undertake the regulation of the Ho."
2325 BC was when Joseph was 20 years old.
Counting from Huangdi's first year, not 2697 BC, but 40 years more recent, 2657 BC. But Huangdi started counting in 60's from January 26, 2636 BC. Thus, 60 years from 2696 BC = 2636 BC the actual first year of sixty. Likewise, Yao's first year was not 2357 BC but 40 years more recent, 2315 BC.
The Chinese counted their lunar months from the exact time the moon passed by the sun = the new moon = January 26, 2636 BC.
2636 BC / 128 = 20 days. January 26, 2636 BC = January 6 Gregorian.
60 days after the new moon January 26 is the new moon March 26 = March 6 Gregorian = 16 days to the spring equinox.
January 26, 2636 BC = 76 days to the spring equinox = 31 + 45 days = Chinese spring one month early.
"In his (Huangdi) 20th year brilliant clouds appeared..Note "The auspicious omen of brilliant clouds..The emperor in yellow robes fasted..there came together phoenixes, male and female."
The Chinese Classics. p.108.
Phoenixes were the angels that moved the sun and moon.
Ancient people were afraid of the omen of lunar and solar eclipses. They were also afraid of the omen of sun miracles. They believed God controled the universe. In that they believed God controled the movement of the sun and moon and took them as omens. They were right, and God moved the sun to point to the coming of his Son.
The first year of emperor Yao may be in 2315 BC.
From Huangdi in 2657 BC 100 years to 2557 BC, 41 years to Chuen-heuh in 2515 BC, 200 years to Yao in 2315 BC. From 2557 BC to Yao is 240 years. 240 / 60 = 4. 2557 BC is year 20 of cycle 60. 2315 BC is also year 20 of cycle 60.
King Wan's dream was in the beginning of Chinese Spring that was 45 days before the spring equinox. 1239 BC / 128 = 10 days. February 5, 1239 BC = January 26 = 53 days before the spring equinox March 20. King Wan's dream February 5, 1239 BC again Spring is in the East!
We know the sun moved back and earth flowed out of the reverse orbit of the sun on king Wan's dream probably February 5, 1239.
We know one and a half orbits before this God made the sun stand still in the sky for a day for Joshua on Joshua's long day, probably August 10, 1241 BC.
We know earth's orbit must be sped up 48 hours in a reverse orbit for there to be 365 days a year, that equals there must be a total of 48 hours of long days = the sun moving with earth's rotation for a total of 48 hours. In a half orbit this is 24 hours.
We know the battle of Merom in the next chapter in Joshua 11 was some months after Joshua's long day. We know this was the same battle in Judges 4 and 5 because the same King Jabin that was defeated is recorded. We know from these two verses there must have been a sun miracle, probably February 4, 1240 BC = one year before God moved the sun back on king Wan's dream February 5, 1239 BC and one year after God moved the sun for a long day at the crossing of the river Jordan on dry ground, February 4, 1241 BC, and six months after Joshua's long day in Joshua 10, that is the next chapter in Joshua 11.
Joshua 11:1 "And it came to pass, when Jabin king of Hazor had heard those things, that he sent to Jobab king of Madon, and to the king of Shimron, and to the king of Achshaph,"
Joshua 11:7 "So Joshua came, and all the people of war with him, against them by the waters of Merom suddenly; and they fell upon them.
11:8 And the LORD delivered them into the hand of Israel, who smote them, and chased them unto great Zidon, and unto Misrephothmaim, and unto the valley of Mizpeh eastward; and they smote them, until they left them none remaining."
Judges 5:20 "They fought from heaven; the stars in their courses fought against Sisera."
Judges 5:31 "So let all thine enemies perish, O LORD: but let them that love him be as the sun when he goeth forth in his might! And the land had rest forty years."
From the above diagram of the lunar zodiak we can see Fang/Scorpius in the east when Chinese spring is supposed to be in the east. Spring in the east can only be from a reverse orbit.
The sun in Scorpius in spring, the sun in spring would normally in 2300 BC would be in Taurus, = 180° difference; this means the sun had to have moved to the other side of earth, and earth flow into a reverse orbit of the sun on this full moon, April 1, 2315 BC, or on this new moon, April 1, 2316 BC, when the sun stood still ten days and Yao became emperor of China and Joseph governor of Egypt. The full moon April 1, 2315 BC = the Passover when Jesus was crucified April 3, 33 AD.
From the 50 year jubile in 2322 BC are 47 X 50 year jubiles to Jesus' fulfillment when he read Isaiah 61:1 in Luke 4:18 on Yom Kippur, September 9, 29 AD, or October 7, 29 AD. Then seven years to 2315 BC the first year of plenty and seven more years of famine from 2308 BC.
The 49 year jubile coincides with 2320 BC, the 50 year jubile begins with 2322 BC. 7 more years to 2313 BC 7 more years to 2306 BC. Jacob entered Egypt in the second year of famine 2307 BC, a difference of at least one year.
Likewise, was the second year, of Darius, 507 BC = 500 years to Jesus' birth:
Ezra 4:23 "Now when the copy of king Artaxerxes' letter was read before Rehum, and Shimshai the scribe, and their companions, they went up in haste to Jerusalem unto the Jews, and made them to cease by force and power.
4:24 Then ceased the work of the house of God which is at Jerusalem. So it ceased unto the second year of the reign of Darius king of Persia."
After Artaxerxes was Darius II. King Artaxerxes died in 417 BC.
Daniel 9:1 "In the first year of Darius the son of Ahasuerus, of the seed of the Medes, which was made king over the realm of the Chaldeans;"
Daniel 11:1 "Also I in the first year of Darius the Mede, even I, stood to confirm and to strengthen him."
Ahasuerus was Xerxes. The son of Ahasuerus, Xerxes, is Darius II, not Darius I.
Xerxes is said to have been born in 519 BC. With a 13 year correction Xerxes must have been born in 507 BC = 500 years to the birth of Jesus.
Daniel 5:31 "And Darius the Median took the kingdom, being about threescore and two years old."
Ezra 4:24 Then ceased the work of the house of God which is at Jerusalem. So it ceased unto the second year of the reign of Darius king of Persia."
There are two Darius', Darius I King 13 years more recent from 509 BC = the second year 507 BC, and Darius II King 10 years more recent from 413 BC, the second year 411 BC or Darius II King 14 years more recent from 409 BC = 9 X 49 years to Jesus' sacrifice April 3, 33 AD, Darius II's second year 407 BC.
Darius I was about thirty when he became King. Darius II would be about 62 in about 413 BC when he became King.
Then Daniel must have lived to 413 BC, and live more than 200 years.
In 2222 BC both the 49 year jubile and the 50 year jubile are the same year. The first 49 year jubile from 5358 BC. The first Armenian sothis year from 5368 BC = 50 year jubiles to Jesus' sacrifice. In 4672 BC both the 50 year and 49 year jubile coincide in year 700 when Adam was born.
Jesus born about September 12, 7 BC would be 38.5 years old at his sacrifice April 3, 33 AD. Thus all the dates pointing to the 38.5 years of Jesus' perfect life from the beginning of time.
Back 1460 years from 5368 BC is 6828 BC. 6828 BC + 32 years to Jesus' sacrifice April 3, 33 AD = 6860 years. 6860 years divided by 49 is 140. Then 140 times 49 year jubiles from the earliest Armenian sothis cycle to Jesus' sacrifice.
Back 1460 years from 6828 BC is 8288 BC + 32 years to April 3, 33 AD is 8320 years. 8320 years / 49 = 169.79 jubiles.
.79 X 49 = 38.7 years. Thus, the sothis year 8288 BC to Jesus' sacrifice in 33 AD = 169 X 49 years + 38 years = 169 jubiles plus the 38 years of Jesus' life.

Popular Mechanics
This bird may represent the phoenix.
The omen to begin this calendar may not have been a comet but a sun miracle pointing to Jesus coming. Sun miracles 38.5 years apart in even 100's to Jesus' birth and sacrifice pointed to the 38.5 years of Jesus' perfect life.
Thus, these omens were recorded from the beginning of civilization. The dates in the Ancient Book of Jubilees begin from 5368 BC.
Using the 50 year jubile to Jesus' fulfillment when he spoke from Isaiah 61 in Luke 4, 2322 BC was a 50 year jubile, then this same 2315 BC began the seven years of plenty. The next seven years of famine begin in 2308 BC, the second year in 2307 BC, exactly matching the seven year cycles.
Both precession of the equinoxes, one month in 1000 years from 2315 BC to 1240 BC, and the sun miracle two months before the spring equinox; means Scorpius was in the east in Yao's lunar zodiac, and that the sun was in Virgo on king Wan's dream = Scorpius straight up at sunset. Three months of the 12 months in a year equals a 90° difference in Scorpius in the east 2315 BC and Scorpius above February 5, 1239 BC.
February 4, 1239 BC, the winter sun in Hunan China, at the 30th parallel, rose to 43° above the horizon. The moon orbits higher in winter, and the moon and Saturn together rose to 54° above the horizon. Thus, the moon and Saturn high above at sunset in China at the time of king Wan's dream. Also, there was five hours between sunset at 5 PM to when Saturn/Moon would set at 10 PM = enough distance for the sun to set and the stars come out and the moon and Saturn appear above in China in fang/scorpius.
The exact measurement is from February 4, 1241 BC to the vernal equinox April 1, 1241 BC, is 56 days - almost two months, 2 X 29.5 = 59 days. 2315 BC to 1240 BC = 1074 years. Precession is one day every 128 years. 1074 / 128 = 9 days. This, because a year is 365.24 days and not 365.25 days = the Julian calendar backs up one day every 128 years. All told = two months. The lunar zodiac was approximate - some lunar signs that should be 1 / 28 are as large as some zodiac signs that are 1 / 12. Thus, one more sign of twelve signs of 360° = three signs of twelve signs = 2 months + one sign of precession = 90°.
Thus, 90 days or 90° make this Scorpius in the sun in the east in Spring in 2315 BC to above at sunset and the sun in Virgo in king Wan's dream at sunset in China in February 5, 1239 BC. Scorpius/Fang complete 90° in comparison of the zodiac of Yao in 2315 BC and king Wan in 1239 BC.
The sun moved 180° back one year later, on Tuesday, February 4, 1240 BC and move 180° again Wednesday February 5, 1240 BC, or 360° on February 4, 1240 BC, and earth flowed out of and again into the reverse orbit of the sun. Then, two years later, on February 5, 1239 BC, the sun move 180° east, 180° back, to stand still at noon in Israel, at sunset in China, as described in detail in king Wan's dream - and earth flow out of the reverse orbit of the sun.
The sun must have been moved two years before, and earth flow into the reverse orbit, Sunday, February 4, 1241 BC on the tenth day and the sun move back two years later, Thursday, February 5, 1239 BC on the sixth day, and earth flow out of the reverse orbit of the sun.
Likewise at Noah's flood, the sun rose in the west and set in the east by tradition, on the 10th day of the second month, seven days before the flood, in February of 3307 BC, about this same time of year, February 4, 1241 BC:
Genesis 7:10 "And it came to pass after seven days, that the waters of the flood were upon the earth.
7:11 In the six hundredth year of Noah's life, in the second month, the seventeenth day of the month, the same day were all the fountains of the great deep broken up, and the windows of heaven were opened."
Thus, the sun move to the other side of the earth also on the 10th day of the month, February 4, 1241 BC. Thus, the sun move to the other side of earth seven days before Noah's flood, the 10th day of the second month, February 9, 3307 BC.
And the sun move back two years after February 4, 1241 BC and earth flow out of the reverse orbit on king Wan's dream, probably February 5, 1239 BC. Again, spring is in the east, the sun is in Virgo in 1241 BC and not in Pisces, again 180° apart. Thus the reverse orbit of the earth is described again! And both Joshua's long day and king Wan's dream are only one and an half orbits apart.
Thus, the space men should make the connection to Joshua's long day in Joshua 10:12.
The sun must have moved two years before king Wan's dream, at the crossing of the Jordan February 4, 1241 BC and the sun moved back two years later February 5, 1239 BC on king Wan's dream.
Joshua 10:13b "So the sun stood still from the half of heaven, and hasted not to go down about a whole day."
The Septuagint reads "whole day" an additional day without night between = 24 hours.
The Septuagint of Habakkuk 3:11 "The sun was exalted and the moon stood still in her course"
Again "from the half of heaven" means the night after Joshua's long day, Israel saw the stars from the half of heaven. The earth in the reverse orbit meant the sun was in Aquarius the night before Joshua's long day, August 10, 1241 BC, was again in Aquarius the night following Joshua's long day = the sun again was half the sky away from Gemina where the sun would normally be in August and the sun be in Aquarius as earth continued in a reverse orbit of the sun.
Nevertheless, "from the half of heaven" may simply mean from the half of the sky = the sun at noon.
Probably the sun revolved 360° around the earth and earth continued in the reverse orbit of the sun, from a long day the day of the crossing of the Jordan, Sunday, February 4, 1241 BC = the sun moved to the other side of the earth that day and earth continued in a reverse orbit of the sun until king Wan's dream, February 5, 1239 BC when the sun moved back and earth flowed out of the reverse orbit of the sun.
"King Wan dreamt that he was clothed with the sun and the moon. A phoenix duck sang on mount K'e. In the first month of spring, on the 6th day, the five planets had a conjunction in Fang. Afterwards a male and female phoenix went about Wan's capitol with a writing in their beaks, which said: 'The emperor of Yin has no principle, but oppresses and disorders the empire. The great decree is removed: Yin cannot enjoy it longer. The powerful spirits of earth have left it; all the spirits are whistled away. The conjunction of the five planets in Fang brightens all within the four seas.'"
The Annals of the Bamboo Books, Part V the Dynasty of Chow p.143, The Chinese Classics.
The male phoenix is the angel that moved the sun. The female phoenix is the angel that moved the moon.
In this February 5, 1239 BC Saturn is in Taurus and Jupiter is beside it in Pisces 180° away from Scorpius.
The phoenix duck is depicted as a bird above the sun. The top character is the sun, then the moon, then the duck above the sun:
King Wan may have recorded the sun standing still at sunset because there had recently been other like sun miracles. Such as: 180° February 4, 1241 BC, Joshua's long day = 360° August 10, 1241 BC and 360° February 4, 1240 BC, 360° August 10, 1240 BC and 180° February 5, 1239 BC = the sun move back and earth flow out of the reverse orbit of the sun. Two years of reverse orbit = the same 2 X 48 hours of long days, 2 X 180° and 3 X 360°.
The song of the phoenix was like P'o P'o. The phoenix was known for its sweet song. So king Wan must have both seen the phoenix and heard the phoenix.
"The voice of the phoenix was celebrated for its sweetness." cf. of the Jewish poet Ezekiel v:10. "Its colour was purple" (Pliny).
"King Wan was like the sun or the moon. He lightened with his shining the four quarters, -- the western regions."
"Brightens all within the four seas" in king Wan's dream may refer to Fang/Scorpius rising in the east where the Pacific Ocean is before the sun rose that night. The four seas, the four quarters.
"The conjunction of the five planets in Fang brightens all within the four seas." 12 hours later the sun would be on the other side of the earth and earth flow out of the reverse orbit. Then Fang/Scorpius would rise six hours before the sun in the east above the Pacific Ocean.
Often the picture of Joshua's long day is the last quarter moon standing still on the western horizon above the valley of Ajalon and the sun standing still in the noon position.
That picture may be right. Joshua's long day may have been on the last quarter moon = the moon in the valley of Ajalon when the sun was at noon.
The moon must move with the sun. Thus, Joshua commanded the moon also.
The day of Joshua's long day may have started out as a normal day.
Two reverse orbits from Joshua's long day August 10, 1241 BC to the full moon, the first day of the feast of tabernacles, August 11, 1239 BC when the sun should move back and earth flow out of the reverse orbit of the sun. King Wan's dream, February 5, 1239 BC would mean the sun stood still at noon on Israel, at sunset on China, for 24 hours not 12 hours.
Joshua 10:14 "There has been no day like it before or since, when the LORD heeded the voice of a man, for the LORD fought for Israel."
Nevertheless, Joshua's long day must be on the half orbit point to work.
We know the sun returned February 5, 1239 BC. Then either the sun moved 180° for 12 hours for Joshua to begin the reverse orbit, or that the sun moved 180° at the crossing of the river Jordan February 4, 1241 BC. Then at the half orbit point August 10, 1241 BC the sun must move 2 X 180° = 360° to stand still at noon for 24 hours.
Or the sun moved to the other side of earth February 4, 1242 BC at the death of Miriam Moses' sister. Then August 10, 1242 BC would be a 24 hour longer day, and February 4, 1241 BC = the crossing of the river Jordan be a 24 hour longer day to both cross the river and to climb to mount Ebal and mount Gerizim to read all of the law in one day.
If the reverse orbit started February 4, 1241 BC, Joshua must have chose the right day. Earth already in a reverse orbit, and God may have moved the sun 360° around the earth for 24 hours and earth continue in the reverse orbit. After the moon and the sun set in the west.
Thus, earth already in a reverse orbit, and then the sun revolved around the earth 360° in 24 hours, = earth would continue in the reverse orbit till king Wan's dream one and a half orbits later.
Joshua 23:4 "Behold, I have divided unto you by lot these nations that remain, to be an inheritance for your tribes, from Jordan, with all the nations that I have cut off, even unto the great sea westward."
Joshua's long day 188 days after the crossing of the river Jordan, Sunday, February 4, 1241 BC, would be the last quarter moon, August 10, 1241 BC.
Then sun return February 4, 1240 BC about the battle of Merom in Joshua 11, and Judges 4, 5, and give Joshua 12, or 24 hours, more hours to pursue the king Jabin and general Sisera to Zidon. And move the sun to the other side of the earth again the same day, February 4, 1240 BC. And earth continue in the reverse orbit of the sun to February 5, 1239 BC, on the first quarter moon as in king Wan's dream.
King Wan's dream February 5, 1239 BC means God must have moved the sun back one and a half orbits after Joshua's long day Saturday, August 10, 1241 BC.
Half an orbit before Joshua's long day was the crossing of the river Jordan into Israel, Sunday, February 4, 1241 BC - two weeks before the fall of Jericho. And thus there not be a sun miracle at the fall of Jericho. Two weeks before the fall of Jericho is Sunday, February 4, 1241 BC and half an orbit later is Joshua's long day Saturday, August 10, 1241 BC.
February 5, 1239 BC is this first quarter moon as in king Wan's dream. And two years earlier may have been a long day when Israel crossed the river Jordan and the same day climbed to Bethel and mount Gerizim and mount Ebal and Joshua read all the law of Moses - Deuteronomy 27:2.
Deuteronomy 11:29 "And it shall come to pass, when the LORD thy God hath brought thee in unto the land whither thou goest to possess it, that thou shalt put the blessing upon mount Gerizim, and the curse upon mount Ebal."
Deuteronomy 27:4 "Therefore it shall be when ye be gone over Jordan, that ye shall set up these stones, which I command you this day, in mount Ebal, and thou shalt plaister them with plaister."
There is the possibility Joshua read the law when the Children of Israel crossed the Jordan on dry ground. There would need to be a long day for Israel to climb up to Shechem and hear the law.
"I command you this day" may be the current day. The seventh month would be the time, the first day or the 10th day or the feast of taberncles = the last day of the feast of tabernacles was Joshua's long day.
In the original V, there is no gap between Deuteronomy 11 and Deuteronomy 27 "the blessing upon mount Gerizim, and the curse upon mount Ebal" the same day the children of Israel were to cross the river Jordan.
Israel may have already been in northern Israel. Thus, the Samaritan tradition that predates Moses in the last chapters of Deuteronomy and predates Joshua entering the Promised Land.
See The Valediction of Moses, by Idan Dershowitz. "V is a relatively short composition" - Deuteronomy 11 continues with Deuteronomy 27. Thus, the 16 chapters in the middle are not in the original and the focus is on: "the blessing upon mount Gerizim, and the curse upon mount Ebal"
Matthew 5:18 "For verily I say unto you, Till heaven and earth pass, one jot or one tittle shall in no wise pass from the law, till all be fulfilled."
Joshua 3:5 "And Joshua said unto the people, Sanctify yourselves: for to morrow the LORD will do wonders among you."
"In the book of the law. There was not a word of all Moses had commanded Joshua that Joshua failed to read in the presence of the the entire Israel as they were crossing the Jordan and the women and the children and the strangers who accompanied them after they stepped..the book of the law. Then came up the bearers of the Ark. At that time YHWH said to Joshua, "Make flint knives."
4Q379 the Joshua Scroll, p.117. The Dead Sea Scrolls.
Joshua 4:10 "For the priests which bare the ark stood in the midst of Jordan, until every thing was finished that the LORD commanded Joshua to speak unto the people, according to all that Moses commanded Joshua: and the people hasted and passed over."
The children of Israel passed over in ranks of 50. At 50 at a time, 50 per second, it would take eleven hours for all two million of them, 600,000 grown men, to Passover the dry river bed of Jordan.
Joshua may have spoken the blessings when Israel crossed the river Jordan.
Joshua and Israel may have climbed up to Shechem, by mount Gerizim and mount Nebal, to speak the blessings and cursings that same day = a long day.
Joshua 5:2 "At that time the LORD said unto Joshua, Make thee sharp knives, and circumcise again the children of Israel the second time."
Deuteronomy 11:29 "And it shall come to pass, when the LORD thy God hath brought thee in unto the land whither thou goest to possess it, that thou shalt put the blessing upon mount Gerizim, and the curse upon mount Ebal."
Deuteronomy 27:4 "Therefore it shall be when ye be gone over Jordan, that ye shall set up these stones, which I command you this day, in mount Ebal, and thou shalt plaister them with plaister."
Deuteronomy 27:13 "And these shall stand upon mount Ebal to curse; Reuben, Gad, and Asher, and Zebulun, Dan, and Naphtali."
Joshua 8:30 "Then Joshua built an altar unto the LORD God of Israel in mount Ebal,"
Joshua 8:33 "And all Israel, and their elders, and officers, and their judges, stood on this side the ark and on that side before the priests the Levites, which bare the ark of the covenant of the LORD, as well the stranger, as he that was born among them; half of them over against mount Gerizim, and half of them over against mount Ebal; as Moses the servant of the LORD had commanded before, that they should bless the people of Israel."
Joshua 8:30 = 8:33 appears in the Dead Sea Scrolls after Joshua 4 and before Joshua 5 = the same day that Joshua and Israel crossed the river Jordan.
Thus, this February 4, 1241 BC, the tenth day of the first month, when Israel crossed the river Jordan may have been one very long day.
"4Q379's view on the beginning of the Jubilean computation, shared by the Samaritan tradition, differs from the rabbinic halakha. The latter postulates that the Sabbatical computation begins fourteen years after the entrance into the Promised Land.
4Q379 the Joshua Scroll, p.114. The Dead Sea Scrolls.
The 14th year from 1241 BC would be 1226 BC = the first year of emperor Te-sin in China. Thus, perhaps a sun miracle in this 1226 BC that the Chinese took as an omen for a new emperor.
There are many records of dates on a year ending X26 BC.
Josiah's 18th year and great Passover would be 626 BC = 600 years later. When the ark was taken into the temple.
From 1226 BC to Josiah's 18th year and Passover, from 645 BC is 626 BC = 600 years from 1226 BC.
From 1227 BC to the first year of Cyrus the Great of Babylon in 527 BC are 700 years.
From Cyrus in 527 BC to Alexander the Great in 323 BC, the Persian period is 200 years.
2 Chonicles 36:22 "Now in the first year of Cyrus king of Persia, that the word of the LORD spoken by the mouth of Jeremiah might be accomplished, the LORD stirred up the spirit of Cyrus king of Persia, that he made a proclamation throughout all his kingdom, and put it also in writing, saying,
36:23 Thus saith Cyrus king of Persia, All the kingdoms of the earth hath the LORD God of heaven given me; and he hath charged me to build him an house in Jerusalem, which is in Judah. Who is there among you of all his people? The LORD his God be with him, and let him go up."
Cyrus began his reign over Persia in 547 BC = 29 years to 518 BC. Cyrus was King of Babylon = this first year of Cyrus, must be 527 BC = the year of his decree, to rebuild the temple, which was begun at the return from the 70 years of captivity in 521 BC. The building of the temple was halted by Cyrus about 518 BC and Cyrus died in 518 BC.
Cyrus reigned 9 years from Babylon, from 527 BC to 518 BC. Cambyses reigned 8 years from 518 BC to Darius in 510 BC.
Cambyses' 7th year was recorded the lunar eclipses of May 25, 510 BC and November 18, 510 BC.
Gaumata the Magus claimed the throne from Camyses "in the spring (full moon) March 11, 522 BC" corrected March 16, 509 BC. A full moon on the Passover may have the sun darkened and be the omen for a new King.
Cambyses died in July 509 BC.
The Darius reigned from July 509 BC and the second year of Darius from July 508 BC to July 507 BC. Then the building of the temple from the seventh month of his second year would be in September of 507 BC.
Darius the Great is said to have reigned to his 35th year and died in October.
Nevertheless Darius must have reigned 13 years more recent, not from 522 BC, but from July 509 BC to October 477 BC / 478 BC = 32 years, or 31 years from July 509 BC to October 478 BC.
Thus, the difference from Darius to Xerxes, is Darius reigned not 36 years as according to Herodotus, but 31 years according to Ctesias.
The 70 years of Israel's captivity may have been from 591 BC to 521 BC. July of 509 BC may have been the first year of Darius the king of Persia. Cyrus the Great must have wrote the decree of the return of the Jews, after 70 years of captivity, 591 BC - 521 BC. Thus, the second temple period began in 521 BC. They left off building the temple after laying the foundation in 521 BC for fifteen years to 507 BC and to 504 BC when the second temple was finished on February 10, 504 BC.
Darius reigned 31 years according to Ctesias, who served in the Persian court of Artexerxes Mnemon, 404 BC - 359 BC, 17 years and thoroughly researched the Persian Archives stated Darius reigned 31 years. Herodotus stated Darius reigned 36 years.
However, Herodotus never set foot in Persia.
It is recorded Darius reigned 35 years. However, the last year of Cambyses his 7th year, according to the two lunar eclipses, in May and November, was in 510 BC. His son Xerxes became King in 477 BC. This leaves 32 years, even this 31 years according to the Persian Archives.
Darius reigned not from 523 BC but from 509 BC = a 14 year adjustment.
"Elam was the first region to rebel..Nidintu-Bel, a Babylon upstart who on 3 October 522 BC, proclaimed himself Nebuchadnezzar III, King of Babylon and King of Lands..on 13 December a battle took place on the River Tigris.."
Persians, the Age of Great Kings, Lloyd Llowellyn-Jones, p.109.
The lunar eclipses in the seventh year of Cambyses for July 17, 523 BC and January 10, 522 BC, must be rather, month IV, May 25, 510 BC and be month X, November 18, 510 BC:
Both lunar eclipses are visible from Greece:
Anchor date (year 7 of Cambyses in 523 BCE) owing to tablet BM 33066125:
19 Year 7 month IV, night 14, 1 2/3 beru (= 50° = 50x4 minutes) after sunset,
20 the Moon makes a total eclipse, [but] a little is left over, north [wind] went.
21 month X, night 14, 2 1/2 beru (= 75° = 75x4 minutes) to sunrise are left over,
22 the Moon makes a total eclipse. South and north, clouded, went.
Yes, there are two possible time periods. Jupiter has an orbit of 12 years. 12 years after 523 BC is 511 BC. Yet, the second eclipse pair for 510 BC does work.
Here you see the wrong dates:
Here you see the right dates:
The lunar eclipse in the twentieth year of Darius I for November 19, 502 BC must be October 19, 491 BC.
The lunar eclipse in the thirty-first year of Darius I for April 25, 491 BC must be March 25, 480 BC.
Then Darius I reigned from 510 BC to his 31st year in 480 BC. Then also Darius reigned three more years to 477 BC when his son Xerxes became emperor.
The 31 years for Darius I must begin in July of 509 BC, his 2d year from 508 BC to 507 BC, his 6th year in 504 BC = the end of the same year ending in February, the 3rd of Adar February 10, 504 BC.
The lunar eclipse in the thirty-first year of Darius I for April 25, 491 BC must be March 25, 480 BC.
But the 31st and last year of Darius I was in October of 477 BC.
Dead Sea Scroll, 4Q550: "Darius the king to the kings who will reign after me and to those who exercise authority, greeting, let it be known that every oppressor and liar.."
Dead Sea Scroll, 4Q550c: "However, whatever you want, command me, and when you die, I will bury you."
Darius died in October of 477 BC.
"Darius I took the throne after the death of Cyrus's son Cambyses II, and though his reign would not have been possible without the empire and administration groundwork laid by Cyrus the Great before him, Darius proved himself just as worth of the epithet. Reigning for over 35 years, Darius kept control of the massive Persian Empire despite numerous rebellions and uprisings, and he also managed to implement reforms and improvements that established the empire's golden age."
Darius the Great and Xerxes I, p.4.
Darius reigned 31 years according to the Persian Archives.
Thus Darius I reigned, not 35 years, but 31 years, or 32 years, from 509 BC to 477 BC.
April 25, 491 BC is the same date, day of the 30 day calendar in Egypt = March 25, 480 BC:
13 years more recent from this full moon, Thursday, 3 October 522 BC, should be the full moon Friday, 8 October, 509 BC. Friday or Thursday = the same day of the week.
Darius won a victory three days before the new moon, on Sunday, 8 May 521 BC, which should be Monday, 14 May 508 BC. Sunday or Monday = the same day of the week.
The battle of Lade supposed to be in 494 BC against Darius I. This battle should be 10 years more recent, in 484 BC in the 25th year of Darius.
Then the battle of Marathon, not in 490 BC, but ten years more recent, in 480 BC = Mars seen in September, the Duke Ching of Sung, the father of Luh-ching was Duke Ching of Sung, saw Mars in the heart constellation of Scorpius and was disturbed. Mars that should be in Leo, was seen in Scorpius.
The Spartans would not fight on the full moon because of their religion. The full moon September 9, 490 BC, the battle of Marathon September 12, 490 BC.
September 12, 490 BC:
The battle must be 8 years more recent about September 12, 482 BC = The 17th day of the seventh month. Jesus must have been born the 17th day of the 7th month, September 12, 7 BC.
The same September 12 in 482 BC as in September 12, 490 BC:
The battle of Marathon was supposed to be September 12, 490 BC = the 17th day of the seventh month = Friday, September 21, 480 BC = Jesus' birth the 17th day of the seventh month, Saturday, September 12, 7 BC. Perhaps there was the omen of a sun miracle that day that equals the day the King of China, Duke Ching of Sung, was troubled when he saw Mars in Scorpius when it should have been in Leo.
The September sunset would see Mars in this heart constellation of Scorpius above at dark. Thus, the King observed Mars before he went to bed and observed Mars had moved.
Mars could have been the star the wisemen saw. God could easily have moved Mars to be above Bethlehem, in September of 5 BC, and keep Mars directly above Bethlehem until the wisemen found Jesus in the house of Joseph and Mary.
God could make Mars or Jupiter or Saturn, to be the star the wisemen followed to Bethlehem.
Jupiter is 468 million miles from the sun. Saturn is 886 million miles from the sun. The speed of light is 670 million miles per hour.
Saturn to stand still in the sky as earth rotates (886 X 2 X 3.1416) / 24 = 231 million miles per hour.
Jupiter (468 X 2 X 3.1416) / 24 = 122 million miles per hour.
Mars (142 X 2 X 3.1416) / 24 = 37 million miles per hour.
To make Jupiter or Saturn appear at the same position = to stand still in the sky, as earth rotated, Saturn would need to be moved at 231 million miles per hour = one third the speed of light, 670 million miles per hour, and Jupiter 122 million miles per hour and Mars 37 million miles per hour.
Jesus' birth the 17th day of the 7th month, September 12, 7 BC.
Nevertheless, there was a conjunction of Saturn and Jupiter on September 15, 7 BC. Jesus may have been born September 12, 7 BC.
Very likely there was a sun miracle at this battle of Marathon in September of 480 BC. A long day in Greece = a long sunset in China = Mars moved out of the way of the sun. The sun miracle would point to Jesus' birth September 12, 7 BC.
There was a reported capture of a Qilin, a phoenix, in China in 480 BC; 722 BC - 242 years = 480 BC:
"The first studied classic is The Spring and Autumn Annals, which chronicles the events of the state of Lu in the Spring and Autumn period. Starting from the first month of the first year under the reign of the Duke Lin of Lu (722 BC), the book ends at an event 242 years later, the capture of a qilin (unicorn) in a westbound hunt. The qilin does not exist in reality, so why does a historical record stop abruptly at the capture of a legendary animal? Obviously it was supported by the belief that qilin existed..
Confucious mostly wanted to dream of a phoenix. What does, "the phoenix does not arrive" mean? The phoenix was a mythological bird in Confucious' imagination..."
Myths of Creation of the Chinese. p.79.
"So, the central position is for the holiest of all, which is the King of Gods of the universe. What is that? It looks like a qilin, a two footed animal dancing, which has a little tail too. You might be able to tell, that it is a holy bear standing in the central position of the sky."
Myths of Creation of the Chinese. p.90.
The reality is the qilin and phoenix were angels that moved the sun around the earth. Of course God is the holiest of all.
September 21, 480 BC, the 17th day of the 7th month. Jesus' birth may have been the 17th day of the 7th month September 12, 7 BC.
From October 480 BC is 73 X 7 years = 511 years, to October 32 AD.
"An example of this whole proceedure on the state level can be seen in the "substitute king ritual." In this case omens, usually an eclipse, would indicate that the diety was displeased with the king.. the final act when the substitute was put to death."
Ancient Near Eastern Thought and the Old Testament. p.142
Ezra 4:23 "Now when the copy of king Artaxerxes' letter was read before Rehum, and Shimshai the scribe, and their companions, they went up in haste to Jerusalem unto the Jews, and made them to cease by force and power.
4:24 Then ceased the work of the house of God which is at Jerusalem. So it ceased unto the second year of the reign of Darius king of Persia."
Cyrus commanded to build the temple at Jerusalem about 525 BC and the work began about 521 BC at the return of the captivity of 70 years from 591 BC. 521 BC = 550 years to Jesus beginning his ministry on the 50 year cycle jubile from 521 BC, on Yom Kippur, September 9, 29 AD or October 7, 29 AD, when he stood up to read Isaiah 61 in Luke 4. Cyrus sent a letter to cease the building of the temple about 518 BC = 500 years till king Herod ordered to rebuild the temple in 18 BC. Work on the temple began in the second year of Darius in 507 BC = 500 years to Jesus' birth.
"The letter you sent us has been read and translated in my presence. I issued an order and a search was made, and it was found that this city has a long history of revolt against kings and has been a place of rebellion and sedition. Jerusalem has had powerful kings ruling over the whole of Trans-Eurphrates, and taxes, tribute, and duty were paid by them. Now issue an order to these men to stop work, so that this city will not be rebuilt until I so order. Be careful not to neglect this matter. Why let this threat grow, to the detriment of the royal interests?"
Persians, the Age of Great Kings, by Lloyd Llewellyn-Jones. p.282.
The rebuilding of the temple began in 521 BC, a 50 year jubile to begin Jesus' ministry in September 9, 29 AD or October 7, 29 AD. The building of the temple resummed in 507 BC; both a 49 year jubile to Jesus' sacrifice and 500 years to Jesus' birth.
The Persian period, not from 539 BC to 333 BC, but from 533 BC to 323 BC = the 210 years = to Alexander the Great, his reign from 323 BC to 312 BC.
Cyrus means sun, and Alexander also was named Ra after the sun god in Egypt. The people believed the heavens were controled by the gods. In that God moved the sun many times, they were right.
"In his (King Yin) first year, which was ting-we (44th of cycle 60 = 313 BC)..
"In his 2d year, in the country of Ts'e, the ground of where they measured the lenght of the the sun's shadow lengthened by more than ten cubits, and was elevated a cubit"
The Chinese Classics, p.175.
In China in 313 BC - 312 BC = the year Alexander the Great died.
Cyrus let the Jews return, not in 536 BC but 13 years more recent in 523 BC = two more years to 521 BC and 50 year jubiles to Jesus speaking on Yom Kippur September 9, 29 AD or October 7, 29 AD.
Darius I reigned 13 years more recent, not from 522 BC but from 509 BC = his second year when the temple building and foundation resumed in 507 BC = 500 years to Jesus' birth.
To be more exact, Darius I reigned to his 32d year from July 509 BC to October 478 BC / 477 BC.
Ctesias, who served in the Persian court of Artexerxes Mnemon, 404 BC - 359 BC, 17 years and thoroughly researched the Persian Archives stated Darius reigned 31 years. Herodotus stated Darius reigned 36 years.
Thus Ctesias is right and Darius I reigned into his 32d year from July 509 BC to October 478 BC / 477 BC.
Wikipedia: Cyrus "near the beginning of October, 539 BC Cyrus fought the battle of Opis on the Tigris..two days later on 12 October Gubarus' troops entered Babylon.."
In the Gregorian calendar year zero is 1 BC. Thus, 539 BC is 540 BC. 539 / 128 = 4. Thus October 12 is October 8 in our Gregorian calendar, two days earlier is the new moon, October 5, 540 BC.
Jesus began his ministry on October 7, 29 AD.
The change to the Gregorian calendar was in 1564 by King Charles IX in France to make new years January 1. Prior to this the spring equinox to April 1 was regarded as new years. Thus the common phrase "April Fools."
The new moon Julian, Wednesday, October 13, 527 BC is the best match = 13 years earlier = 9 more years to the death of Cyrus in 518 BC.
The death of the emperor of China, King King, was this same 518 BC. Perhaps there was an omen of the sun that was taken to remove Cyrus and King King.
Wikipedia "on the 29 October, Cyrus himself entered the city of Babylon."
29 October = Thursday, October 13, 527 BC the new moon = 9 years to the death of Cyrus in 518 BC.
Alexander the Great was 33 when he died in 312 BC means he was born in 345 BC = 38 years to 307 BC = the 38 years of Jesus' life.
Alexander's cousin Pyrrus not born in 319 BC but 13 years more recent in 307 BC = 300 years to the birth of Jesus in September 12, 7 BC.
"In his (King Yin) 6th year, there were great rains and violent winds."
The Chinese Classics. p.176.
From King Yin's first year in 313 BC, the 6th year would be 307 BC. In king Wan's dream there were strong winds when, at the setting of the sun, God moved the sun and the sun stood still on the western horizon for 12 hours. God moved the sun from Virgo to Aquarius, February 5, 1239 BC. The strong winds may have been caused by the sun standing still in the sky for 12 hours.
King Darius not from September 29, 522 BC = the 10th Hebrew day of the seventh month = Yom Kippur, but from Monday September 4, 509 BC or Tuesday, October 3, 509 BC - or Sunday September 23, 508 BC or Monday October 22, 508 BC.
The same date Yom Kippur, the 10th day of the seventh month, September 4, 509 BC one year later would be the 21st day of the seventh month, September 4, 508 BC.
These dates are for Yom Kippur in King Darius' first year. Thus, the anniversary of Darius I in his second year be the new moon September 3, 507 BC = 500 years to Jesus' birth September 12, 7 BC.
Ezra 3:6 "From the first day of the seventh month began they to offer burnt offerings unto the LORD. But the foundation of the temple of the LORD was not yet laid."
Haggai 2:1 "In the seventh month, in the one and twentieth day of the month, came the word of the LORD by the prophet Haggai, saying,"
Haggai 2:10 "In the four and twentieth day of the ninth month, in the second year of Darius, came the word of the LORD by Haggai the prophet, saying,"
King Darius:
"Then I prayed to Ahuramazda; Ahuramazda brought me help. On the tenth day of the month Bagayadish (29 September) I, with a few men, slew that Gaumata, the Magus, and the chief men who were his followers"
Lloyd Llewellyn-Jones, the Persians, The Age of Great Kings. p.105.
There may have been a sun miracle on this day of Yom Kippur that Darius said his god brought him help.
September 29 may be the 29th day of the seventh lunar month, the end of the seventh month. The next year the same date would be the 10th day of the lunar month. Thus, the second year of Darius I would begin in September of 507 BC, perhaps the new moon September 3, 507 BC.
October 12, 508 BC was day 29 of the seventh lunar month. A year later, October 12, 507 BC was Yom Kippur, day 10 of the seventh lunar month. Sun miracles can happen on the same date one year apart.
Exodus 12:16 "And in the first day there shall be an holy convocation, and in the seventh day there shall be an holy convocation to you; no manner of work shall be done in them, save that which every man must eat, that only may be done of you."
Jesus rose from the dead on Sunday, April 5, 33 AD = this first day after the Passover on Saturday. The sabbath had ended at nightfall when the three Mary's went to the tomb with spices. The sun was already rising = the sabbath ended at dark = a sun miracle. This was not a sabbath, but an holy convocation.
Back half an orbit from lunar day 29, October 12, 508 BC is lunar day 21 = the seventh day of unleavened bread of the Passover week, is April 12, 508 BC. Perhaps the sun was moved to the other side of earth April 12, 508 BC and earth flow into a reverse orbit of the sun for two or more years.
Josephus wrote that Joshua spoke to the people in the last two chapters of Joshua, Joshua 23 and Joshua 24, in his 20th year, 1221 BC, probably on Yom Kippur. Jesus spoke in the tenth day of the seventh month, Yom Kippur, to fulfill this 50 year jubile from Isaiah 61 in Luke 4, in September 9, 29 AD or October 7, 29 AD; 25 X 50 years after 1221 BC.
Josephus wrote in the fifth year of Joshua's conquest, 1236 BC, and in the 25th year, 1216 BC. Then Joshua may have been born in 1326 BC, and be 45 at the Exodus in 1281 BC, and be 85 at the crossing of the Jordan.
Nevertheless, the twentieth year may have been in 1221 BC and his death in 1216 BC.
From Joseph's first year as governor over Egypt April 1, 2315 BC to the death of his descendant Joshua in 1216 BC are 1100 years.
Joshua 14:7 "Forty years old was I when Moses the servant of the LORD sent me from Kadeshbarnea to espy out the land; and I brought him word again as it was in mine heart."
Joshua 14:10 "And now, behold, the LORD hath kept me alive, as he said, these forty and five years, even since the LORD spake this word unto Moses, while the children of Israel wandered in the wilderness: and now, lo, I am this day fourscore and five years old."
Emperor Wending died in 1236 BC = this fifth year from Joshua's long day, when Caleb was 85 years old.
Thus, there could have been a sun miracle in this 1236 BC that was taken as an omen to remove emperor Wending, that was to give Othniel more daylight to win the battle that day.
Habukkuk 3:7 "I saw the tents of Cushan in affliction: and the curtains of the land of Midian did tremble."
Habukkuk 3:11 "The sun and moon stood still in their habitation: at the light of thine arrows they went, and at the shining of thy glittering spear."
Judges 3:7 "And the children of Israel did evil in the sight of the LORD, and forgat the LORD their God, and served Baalim and the groves.
3:8 Therefore the anger of the LORD was hot against Israel, and he sold them into the hand of Chushanrishathaim king of Mesopotamia: and the children of Israel served Chushanrishathaim eight years.
3:9 And when the children of Israel cried unto the LORD, the LORD raised up a deliverer to the children of Israel, who delivered them, even Othniel the son of Kenaz, Caleb's younger brother.
3:10 And the Spirit of the LORD came upon him, and he judged Israel, and went out to war: and the LORD delivered Chushanrishathaim king of Mesopotamia into his hand; and his hand prevailed against Chushanrishathaim.
3:11 And the land had rest forty years. And Othniel the son of Kenaz died."
The sun miracle of Joshua's long day and the land had rest forty years.
Emperor Wending's first year at the solar eclipse of March 4, 1250 BC. Phoenixes appeared on mount K'e in his 12th year = king Wan's dream, February 5, 1239 BC. Wending died three years later at the end of his 15th year in 1236 BC.
In years having a solar eclipse during earth's reverse orbit it would be hard to make the moon to pass infront of the sun as it would in earth's normal orbit. Nevertheless, skillfully moving the moon infront of the sun would do it. Likewise a lunar eclipse in earth's reverse orbit, again skillfully moving the moon behind earth's shadow would do it.
Thus, the solar eclipse that should happen when earth was in a reverse orbit of the sun may be replicated. Also, the lunar eclipse that should happen when earth was in a reverse orbit of the sun may be replicated.
King Wan may have taken the omen of the sun standing still in the west as an omen to become emperor. This February 5, 1239 BC describes king Wan staying up all night in his night clothes, clothed with the sun and the moon = the sun and moon stayed visible. Then this night may not have been a battle.
Joshua 15:16 "And Caleb said, He that smiteth Kirjathsepher, and taketh it, to him will I give Achsah my daughter to wife.
15:17 And Othniel the son of Kenaz, the brother of Caleb, took it: and he gave him Achsah his daughter to wife."
Caleb took Kirjathsepher in the fifth year from Joshua's long day from 1241 BC = 1236 BC.
15 years from this fifth year = 1222 BC = 50 year jubiles to Jesus speaking from Isaiah 61 in Luke 4, September 9, 29 AD or October 7, 29 AD.
Joshua died in the 25th year from Joshua's long day according to Josephus. Perhaps Joshua spoke these words in Joshua 23 and Joshua 25, 20 years after the fifth year = 1215 BC.
More likely, Joshua spoke at Shechem in the 20th year from Joshua's long day = 50 year jubiles to September 9, 29 AD, or October 7, 29 AD = Joshua spoke in Joshua 23 and Joshua 24 = Jesus spoke from Isaiah 61 in Luke 4.
Here you can see the two characters for the phoenix. The sun phoenix and the moon phoenix. The male phoenix of the sun yang, and the female phoenix of the moon yin. Yin and Yang = light and darkness.
Phoenixes means the sun phoenix at sunset in the west and the moon phoenix above at the six day moon.
You can see the characters for 12th year, and the fifth character phoenixes. Note phoenixes are plural, both sun and moon phoenixes because this was the six day moon = the moon above and the sun setting = both moon and sun stay there for 12 hours.
"In his, King Wanting, 12th year, (February 5, 1239 BC), phoenixes collected on mount K'e." "Note. This was the first year of king Wan of Chow."
The first year of king Wan. His 35th year was on the lunar eclipse on day 13 of cycle 60, September 24, 1205 BC = 1239 BC - 34 years = 35th year = the current year = September 24, 1205 BC = king Wan's first year February 5, 1239 BC.
"In his 15th year, the king died."
The Chinese Classics. p.138.
You can see the 13th year. Nevertheless, back from emperor Wu in 1174 BC 52 years for emperor Te-sin, back 9 years for emperor Te-Yih = 1236 BC.
King Wanting's 15th year from 1250 BC = 1236 BC. Joshua's fifth year from 1241 BC = 1236 BC.
Josephus wrote: "19. The fifth year was now past, and there was not one of the Canaanites remained any longer, excepting some that had retired to places of great strength. So Joshua removed his camp to the mountainous country, and placed the tabernacle in the city of Shiloh,"
"So Joshua after that disolved this great assembly of the people, and sent them to their own inheritances, while he himself lived in Shechem. But in the twentieth year after this, when he was very old, he sent for those of the greatest dignity in the several cities, with those in authority, and the senate, and as many of the common people as could be present;
and when they all were come, he put them in mind of all the benefits God had bestowed on them, which could not but be a great many, since from a low estate they were advanced to so great a degree of glory and plenty; and exhorted them to take notice of the intentions of God, which had been so gracious towards them; and told them that the Diety would continue their friend by nothing else but their piety; and that it was proper for him, now that he was about to depart out of his life, to leave such an admonition to them; and he desired that they would keep in memory this his exhortation to them.
29. So Joshua, when he had thus discoursed to them, died, having lived one hundred and ten years; forty of which he lived with Moses, in order to learn what might be for his advantage afterwards. He also became their commander after his death for twenty-five years."
Josephus
This "twentieth year" should be 1221 BC from Joshua's long day.
There was to be a jubile in the 15th year from Joshua's long day.
More likely, this was 15 years after this fifth year = 20 years after 1241 BC = 1221 BC = 50 year jubiles to Jesus speaking Isaiah 61 in Luke 4 on Yom Kippur.
Joshua 24:1 "And Joshua gathered all the tribes of Israel to Shechem, and called for the elders of Israel, and for their heads, and for their judges, and for their officers; and they presented themselves before God.
24:2 And Joshua said unto all the people, Thus saith the LORD God of Israel, Your fathers dwelt on the other side of the flood in old time, even Terah, the father of Abraham, and the father of Nachor: and they served other gods.
24:3 And I took your father Abraham from the other side of the flood, and led him throughout all the land of Canaan, and multiplied his seed, and gave him Isaac.
24:4 And I gave unto Isaac Jacob and Esau: and I gave unto Esau mount Seir, to possess it; but Jacob and his children went down into Egypt.
24:5 I sent Moses also and Aaron, and I plagued Egypt, according to that which I did among them: and afterward I brought you out.
24:6 And I brought your fathers out of Egypt: and ye came unto the sea; and the Egyptians pursued after your fathers with chariots and horsemen unto the Red sea.
24:7 And when they cried unto the LORD, he put darkness between you and the Egyptians, and brought the sea upon them, and covered them; and your eyes have seen what I have done in Egypt: and ye dwelt in the wilderness a long season.
24:8 And I brought you into the land of the Amorites, which dwelt on the other side Jordan; and they fought with you: and I gave them into your hand, that ye might possess their land; and I destroyed them from before you.
24:9 Then Balak the son of Zippor, king of Moab, arose and warred against Israel, and sent and called Balaam the son of Beor to curse you:
24:10 But I would not hearken unto Balaam; therefore he blessed you still: so I delivered you out of his hand.
24:11 And ye went over Jordan, and came unto Jericho: and the men of Jericho fought against you, the Amorites, and the Perizzites, and the Canaanites, and the Hittites, and the Girgashites, the Hivites, and the Jebusites; and I delivered them into your hand.
24:12 And I sent the hornet before you, which drave them out from before you, even the two kings of the Amorites; but not with thy sword, nor with thy bow.
24:13 And I have given you a land for which ye did not labour, and cities which ye built not, and ye dwell in them; of the vineyards and oliveyards which ye planted not do ye eat.
24:14 Now therefore fear the LORD, and serve him in sincerity and in truth: and put away the gods which your fathers served on the other side of the flood, and in Egypt; and serve ye the LORD."
Leviticus 16:29 "And this shall be a statute for ever unto you: that in the seventh month, on the tenth day of the month, ye shall afflict your souls, and do no work at all, whether it be one of your own country, or a stranger that sojourneth among you:"
Leviticus 25:8 "And thou shalt number seven sabbaths of years unto thee, seven times seven years; and the space of the seven sabbaths of years shall be unto thee forty and nine years.

Exodus 30:10 "And Aaron shall make an atonement upon the horns of it once in a year with the blood of the sin offering of atonements: once in the year shall he make atonement upon it throughout your generations: it is most holy unto the LORD."
Isaiah 61:1 "The Spirit of the Lord GOD is upon me; because the LORD hath anointed me to preach good tidings unto the meek; he hath sent me to bind up the brokenhearted, to proclaim liberty to the captives, and the opening of the prison to them that are bound;
61:2 To proclaim the acceptable year of the LORD, and the day of vengeance of our God; to comfort all that mourn;"
Luke 3:21 "Now when all the people were baptized, it came to pass, that Jesus also being baptized, and praying, the heaven was opened,
3:22 And the Holy Ghost descended in a bodily shape like a dove upon him, and a voice came from heaven, which said, Thou art my beloved Son; in thee I am well pleased. "
Luke 4:16 "And he came to Nazareth, where he had been brought up: and, as his custom was, he went into the synagogue on the sabbath day, and stood up for to read.
4:17 And there was delivered unto him the book of the prophet Esaias. And when he had opened the book, he found the place where it was written,"
"where he had been brought up" the greek word for brought up is a parallel to the worm of the phoenix being reborn and nurtured.
Isaiah 41:14 "Fear not, thou worm Jacob, and ye men of Israel; I will help thee, saith the LORD, and thy redeemer, the Holy One of Israel."
Psalm 22:6 "But I am a worm, and no man; a reproach of men, and despised of the people."
Luke 4:18 "The Spirit of the Lord is upon me, because he hath anointed me to preach the gospel to the poor; he hath sent me to heal the brokenhearted, to preach deliverance to the captives, and recovering of sight to the blind, to set at liberty them that are bruised,
4:19 To preach the acceptable year of the Lord.
4:20 And he closed the book, and he gave it again to the minister, and sat down. And the eyes of all them that were in the synagogue were fastened on him.
4:21 And he began to say unto them, This day is this scripture fulfilled in your ears."
Mark 15:37 "And Jesus cried with a loud voice, and gave up the ghost.
15:38 And the veil of the temple was rent in twain from the top to the bottom."
Moses was to have gone up to Mount Sinai for 40 days from the first of Elul to the tenth of Tishrei = Yom Kippur.
Exodus 34:28 "And he was there with the LORD forty days and forty nights; he did neither eat bread, nor drink water. And he wrote upon the tables the words of the covenant, the ten commandments."
Luke 4:2 "Being forty days tempted of the devil. And in those days he did eat nothing: and when they were ended, he afterward hungered."
Hebrews 9:3 "And after the second veil, the tabernacle which is called the Holiest of all;"
Hebrews 9:7 "But into the second went the high priest alone once every year, not without blood, which he offered for himself, and for the errors of the people:
9:8 The Holy Ghost this signifying, that the way into the holiest of all was not yet made manifest, while as the first tabernacle was yet standing:"
Hebrews 9:24 "For Christ is not entered into the holy places made with hands, which are the figures of the true; but into heaven itself, now to appear in the presence of God for us:"
Thus, yes, another jubile began after the conquest of Palestine by Joshua. Only, not from the 14th year, but from the 21st year of conquest in 1221 BC = 50 year jubiles to this September 9, 29 AD or October 7, 29 AD..
Then Joshua must also read the law in the seventh month, from the new moon July 20, 1241 BC, Yom Kippur, August 1, 1241 BC, the feast of tabernacles - from August 3, to August 10, 1241 BC. And Joshua's long day on the last day of the feast of tabernacles, Saturday, August 10, 1241 BC.
Thus, Israel would be in booths outside for seven days when the call came for them to come up and help the Gibeonites, and Israel go up all night to the battle at the break of day.
Israel would need to go up from Gilgal to Bethel and then to Gibeon.
More accurately, if the sun stood still the day the children of Israel crossed the river Jordan, February 4, 1241 BC, then two years later could match king Wan's dream February 5, 1239 BC. And half an orbit later match Joshua's long day Saturday, August 10, 1241 BC.
Dating king Wan's dream to February 5, 1239 BC seems to be the best fixed date because this is exactly the first year to the 35th year at the lunar eclipse of September 24, 1205 BC.
The Chinese count ages, not years past but the current year. Thus, not 35 years to 1205 BC, but the 35th year, from 1239 BC to 1205 BC.
Likewise, Jesus began his ministry just as he turned 35 years old.
Then the solar eclipse in China March 4, 1250 BC be Wending's first year and be the omen for a new emperor, the phoenixes = sun standing still at sunset in China in his 12th year = king Wan's dream and first year. And counting from 1239 BC his 35th year the lunar eclipse, day 13 of cycle 60, September 24, 1205 BC.
The date Bingzi, 13 of cycle 60, was an important epoch. Thus, this day 13, September 24, 1205 BC for king Wan's imprisonment, and the planetary conjunction in the first year of king Wan on king Wan's dream, February 5, 1239 BC point to the Epochs of king Wan.
September 24, 1205 BC was a Friday, like Friday the 13th!
King Wan's first year must be either February/March 1240 BC or February/March 1239 BC because king Wan's 35th year was at the lunar eclipse September 24, 1205 BC.
Back 38 years from 1205 BC is 1243 BC back 38 years is the Exodus in 1281 BC.
August 10, 1243 BC would be day 10. Two years later would be Joshua's long day. August 10, 1243 BC was a new moon. There can only be a solar eclipse on a new moon.
"The sun was eclipsed on day guiyou [10]:(Charge:) The Sun was eclipsed in the evening; we should report it to [ancestor] Shang Jia."
Heji, 33695
See the new moon on August 10, 1243 BC:
"In his 11th year, ke-leih smote the hords of E-t'oo, and having taken their three great cheifs, came with them to court to report his victory. The King put Ke-leih to death."
The Chinese Classics, p.138.
Thus, the sun standing still on Israel at noon = the sun standing still at sunset on China on Joshua's long day. The sun standing still at sunset on king Wan = the sun standing still at noon on Israel again. The sun must move back and forth every six months. By the time of king Wan's dream China may have observed a long sunset in the west at least twice and finally took notice to record the event. Five possible dates: February 4, 1241 BC, August 10, 1241 BC, February 4, 1240 BC, August 10, 1240 BC, February 5, 1239 BC.
This sixth day of the moon in China, February 5, 1239 BC would mean a 12th month of Adar must be added, or this February 5, 1239 BC would be in the second Hebrew lunar month.
Nevertheless, in China the first month of spring is counted from 45 days before the spring equinox. Back one day every 128 years Julian, 1239 BC = 10 days = from March 20 = the equinox March 30, 1239 BC Gregorian + 45 days = February 13, 1239 BC; the Chinese spring lunar month beginning February 1, 1239 BC = this February 5, 1239 BC Julian = the first month of spring.
Then three years before king Wan's dream February 5, 1239 BC may be a sun miracle at Miriam, Moses' sister's death, February 5, 1242 BC, and from the crossing of the Jordan, February 4, 1241 BC two more years to February 5, 1239 BC = king Wan's dream.
Miriam died on the new moon, in the first month, February 5, 1242 BC, Israel crossed the Jordan river one year later, February 4, 1241 BC, Joshua's long day August 10, 1241 BC = the moon in Ajalon in the west, king Wan's dream must be February 5, 1239 BC.
Joshua's long day, the battle of Merom and king Wan's dream all appear that God made the sun stand still at noon in Israel = at sunset in China. Thus, finally at king Wan's dream the sun miracle of a long sunset was recorded.
Romans 5:14 "Nevertheless death reigned from Adam to Moses, even over them that had not sinned after the similitude of Adam's transgression, who is the figure of him that was to come."
From the death of Adam in 4442 BC to the death of Moses in 1242 BC are 3200 years. From the death of Adam to the law of Moses are 3161 years.
If king Wan's dream was the first sun movement, then the moon on Joshua's long day would be on the last quarter moon, and to the west of the noon day sun, in the valley of Ajalan.
However, Joshua and the children of Israel crossed the Jordan, on both the 49 year and 50 year jubile, February 4, 1241 BC, two years before king Wan's dream February 5, 1239 BC.
Thus, the first sun movement may be the crossing of the river Jordan, the tenth day of the first month, Sunday, February 4, 1241 BC = Joshua's long day, the 21st day of the seventh month, August 10, 1241 BC, and the sun move back, the fifth day of the first month, February 5, 1239 BC and earth flow out of the reverse orbit of the sun.
In this model the sun must move back at the half orbit point.
The last quarter moon on the seventh day in the first month when the walls fell down at Jericho, February 17, 1241 BC, half an orbit later is August 24, 1241 BC on the first quarter moon. And half an orbit later = one year after the walls fell down on Jericho, is the first quarter moon, February 16, 1240 BC.
However, king Wans' dream must be February 5, 1239 BC; that also means's Joshua's long day must be one and a half orbits earlier, August 10, 1241 BC.
This is significant because the moon was in the valley of Ajalon. Not just in Ajalon but the valley of Ajalon. Half an orbit back is Israel's crossing of the Jordan river, February 4, 1241 BC. This may match Gideon's battle in Judges 6, 7, 8. Joshua was supposed to hike up to Bethel and speak the blessings and cursings from Mount Gerizim and Mount Ebal the same day they crossed the river Jordan Sunday, February 4, 1241 BC = one very long day!
You will read here a lot of Joshua's long day August 10, 1241 BC as well. Either way the model of sun miracles works the same way.
If king Wan's dream was in 1240 BC it would be February 15, 1240 BC but if one year later king Wan's dream would be February 5, 1239 BC.
The moon on Joshua's long day may be the first quarter moon or the last quarter moon for the moon to be visible and on the horizon at noon.
Nevertheless, because king Wan's dream must be February 5, 1239 BC, one and a half orbits earlier has to be Joshua's long day, the last quarter moon = the 21st lunar day of the seventh month, August 10, 1241 BC.
King Wan's dream must be February 5, 1239 BC. Then Joshua's long day in the summer of 1241 BC be the last quarter moon, August 10, 1241 BC.
The sun standing still at noon and the moon standing still on the eastern horizon above Ajalon in Dan beside Galilee as described by Josephus.
Most likely the moon was to the west of the noon day sun on Joshua's long day. That the valley of Ajalon was recorded points to the going down of Bethoron into the Ajalon valley to the west. A sun miracle at the crossing of the Jordan, February 4, 1241 BC points to a sun miracle half an orbit later, August 10, 1241 BC at the 21st day of the lunar month = the moon on the western horizon with the sun at the noon position.
Then Josephus may be mistaken when he stated the Ajalon of Joshua's long day was a town to the north:
The sun rising in the west and stopping at noon for Joshua, the last quarter moon then rising in the west and stopping over the Ajalon valley = the moon to the west of the noon sun not the east of the noon sun.
Or a normal day, and the moon setting in the west, the sun at noon, when Joshua made his request to God.
Josephus wrote there were records of sun miracles kept in the Temple: "That the day was lengthened at this time, and was longer than ordinary, is expressed in the books laid up in the temple."
The works of Flavius Josephus, Volume 1, p.285
Josephus wrote: "When Joshua spake, seemed to him and those with him, (the sun) to be over Gibeon, and the moon to be over the valley of Ajalon."
"This valley in all likely hood, took its name from some adjacent town, but then, as there are three Ajalon mentioned in Scripture, one in the tribe of Ephraim - 1 Chronicles 6:69, another in Zabulon - Judges 12:12, and another in Dan - Joshua 19:42, it is reasonable to think that the place here spoken of was in Dan, the most remote province in Gibeon; for we must suppose these two places were at some considerable distance, otherwise Joshua could not see the sun and moon both appear at the same time, as it were probable they both were in his eye when he uttered those words."
"And now listen to me and I will make known to you the awesome devices of God and I shall recount to you his mighty wonders, which are hidden from mortal man during the numbered days that he lives, all in the depth of hq sealed the tablets of the sun commanded by the agency of Moses."
The Damascas Document
In summer the moon is low and the sun is high. Meaning the sun above on Joshua's long day, and the moon to the southwest over the valley of Ajalon = over the Mediterannean Sea.
The context is of the moon setting in the west at noon = the urgency before the moon set in the west. And also then moon in the valley of Ajalon, right below Gibeon.
Judges 1:35 "But the Amorites would dwell in mount Heres in Aijalon, and in Shaalbim: yet the hand of the house of Joseph prevailed, so that they became tributaries."
There are ten references to Ajalon in the Bible, at least three different places:
Judges 12:12 "And Elon the Zebulunite died, and was buried in Aijalon in the country of Zebulun."
Nazareth where Jesus grew up would be in Zebulun.
Joshua 19:42 "And Shaalabbin, and Ajalon, and Jethlah,
19:43 And Elon, and Thimnathah, and Ekron,"
Joshua 21:24 "Aijalon with her suburbs, Gathrimmon with her suburbs; four cities."
1 Samuel 14:31 "And they smote the Philistines that day from Michmash to Aijalon: and the people were very faint."
Perhaps a sun miracle on Yom Kippur, Thursday, September 4, 1122 BC = 50 year jubiles to Jesus speaking, on Yom Kippur, Friday, September 9, 29 AD, or October 7, 29 AD, from Isaiah 61: "The Spirit of the Lord GOD is upon me;"
The year would begin on Yom Kippur the tenth day of the seventh month on a jubile year instead of Rosh Hashanah the first day of the seventh month. Counting to Jesus speaking from Isaiah 61 in this 1122 BC would be a 50 year jubile.
Saul must have kept the seventh year fallow land from 1124 BC 40 years to 1084 BC. The counting of 490 years the children of Israel not keeping the fallow land on the seventh year to the captivity September 7, 591 BC is from 1081 BC. The 70 years of captivity to 521 BC and 50 year jubiles to Jesus speaking from Isaiah 61. Thus, September 4, 1122 BC was a 50 year jubile.
1 Samuel 14:18 "And Saul said unto Ahiah, Bring hither the ark of God. For the ark of God was at that time with the children of Israel."
Thus, Saul enquired of the ark on Yom Kippur when the High Priest may go into the Holiest of Holies where the ark was. Thus, also this was a 24 hour fast that day.
Yom Kippur may be Sunday, September 1, 1084 BC or Tuesday, October 1, 1084 BC.
Thus, Saul in battle on Yom Kippur, September 1, 1084 BC when he died, and Saul in battle on Yom Kippur, September 4, 1122 BC in battle after he reigned two years.
From September 4, 1122 BC to September 1, 1084 BC = 38 years, the 38.5 years of Jesus' life.
Half an orbit after this October 1, 1084 BC, when the sun may return, is on the full moon, Sunday, March 2, 1083 BC the Passover.
Then, one year later the sun may return on the same date, on the last day of the feast of tabernacles, on the 22d day of the 7th month, October 1, 1083 BC.
Here you can read the whole account:
1 Samuel 14:29 "Then said Jonathan, My father hath troubled the land: see, I pray you, how mine eyes have been enlightened, because I tasted a little of this honey.
14:30 How much more, if haply the people had eaten freely to day of the spoil of their enemies which they found? for had there not been now a much greater slaughter among the Philistines?
14:31 And they smote the Philistines that day from Michmash to Aijalon: and the people were very faint.
14:32 And the people flew upon the spoil, and took sheep, and oxen, and calves, and slew them on the ground: and the people did eat them with the blood.
14:33 Then they told Saul, saying, Behold, the people sin against the LORD, in that they eat with the blood. And he said, Ye have transgressed: roll a great stone unto me this day.
14:34 And Saul said, Disperse yourselves among the people, and say unto them, Bring me hither every man his ox, and every man his sheep, and slay them here, and eat; and sin not against the LORD in eating with the blood. And all the people brought every man his ox with him that night, and slew them there.
14:35 And Saul built an altar unto the LORD: the same was the first altar that he built unto the LORD.
14:36 And Saul said, Let us go down after the Philistines by night, and spoil them until the morning light, and let us not leave a man of them. And they said, Do whatsoever seemeth good unto thee. Then said the priest, Let us draw near hither unto God.
14:37 And Saul asked counsel of God, Shall I go down after the Philistines? wilt thou deliver them into the hand of Israel? But he answered him not that day.
14:38 And Saul said, Draw ye near hither, all the chief of the people: and know and see wherein this sin hath been this day.
14:39 For, as the LORD liveth, which saveth Israel, though it be in Jonathan my son, he shall surely die. But there was not a man among all the people that answered him.
14:40 Then said he unto all Israel, Be ye on one side, and I and Jonathan my son will be on the other side. And the people said unto Saul, Do what seemeth good unto thee.
14:41 Therefore Saul said unto the LORD God of Israel, Give a perfect lot. And Saul and Jonathan were taken: but the people escaped.
14:42 And Saul said, Cast lots between me and Jonathan my son. And Jonathan was taken.
14:43 Then Saul said to Jonathan, Tell me what thou hast done. And Jonathan told him, and said, I did but taste a little honey with the end of the rod that was in mine hand, and, lo, I must die.
14:44 And Saul answered, God do so and more also: for thou shalt surely die, Jonathan.
14:45 And the people said unto Saul, Shall Jonathan die, who hath wrought this great salvation in Israel? God forbid: as the LORD liveth, there shall not one hair of his head fall to the ground; for he hath wrought with God this day. So the people rescued Jonathan, that he died not. "
Luke 21:18 "But there shall not an hair of your head perish."
1 Samuel 14:37 "And Saul asked counsel of God, Shall I go down after the Philistines? wilt thou deliver them into the hand of Israel? But he answered him not that day."
Joshua 10:11 "And it came to pass, as they fled from before Israel, and were in the going down to Bethhoron,.."
Thus, like Joshua Saul may have asked for a longer day to complete the victory. And the sun miracle on this day was recorded in China.
"In his (King K'ang) 12th year, 1124 BC, in the summer, in the sixth month, in the day jin-shin (9th of cycle 60), the king went to Fung, and gave his Charge to the duke of Peih. In the autumn the duke E of Maou died."
The Chinese Classics, the Bamboo Annals.
King K'ang 11th of cycle 60 years 1006 BC + 120 years = 1126 BC. There is a missing 5 years. King K'ang's first year should be 1133 BC. This missing 5 years is corrected by the death of King Muh in his 59th year = year 51 of cycle 60 in 906 BC because his first year is written 56 year of cycle 60, in 961 BC.
But King Muh reigned 59 years, not 54 years = the missing 5 years.
King Muh's first year should be 51 of cycle 60, in 966 BC.
Thus, the confusion simply this year 51 of cycle 60. King Muh both died in year 51 of cycle 60 and reigned from year 51 of cycle 60,
The 59 years of King Muh from year 51 of cycle 60 from 965 BC to year 51 of cycle 60 in 906 BC.
King Ching from 1168 BC 37 years = 1132 BC = the 12th year in 1122 BC. The second year of King Saul from 1124 BC = 1122 BC two years later to the day = The sixth month, the 9th of cycle, was September 4, 1122 BC = Yom Kippur.
This September 4, 1122 BC on day 9 of cycle 60 was also on lunar day 9.
King Ching from 1168 BC = 1200 years to Jesus' birth September 12, 7 BC, 37 year reign = Jesus' life of 38 years to April 3, 33 AD.
Likewise, sun miracles, the first day of the seventh month Rosh Hanna, September 4, 1123 BC and the 20th day of the seventh month, the last day of the feast of tabernacles, Saturday, September 4, 1124 BC.
September 4, 1122 BC is day 9 of cycle 60 and day 10 of the seventh lunar month = Yom Kippur.
These three dates could begin the first, second and third year of King Saul. These three dates may mark sun miracles, one and two years apart.
1 Samuel 10:8 "And thou shalt go down before me to Gilgal; and, behold, I will come down unto thee, to offer burnt offerings, and to sacrifice sacrifices of peace offerings: seven days shalt thou tarry, till I come to thee, and shew thee what thou shalt do."
1 Samuel 11:3 "And the elders of Jabesh said unto him, Give us seven days' respite, that we may send messengers unto all the coasts of Israel: and then, if there be no man to save us, we will come out to thee."
1 Samuel 11:11 "And it was so on the morrow, that Saul put the people in three companies; and they came into the midst of the host in the morning watch, and slew the Ammonites until the heat of the day: and it came to pass, that they which remained were scattered, so that two of them were not left together."
September 4, 1124 BC was the seventh day of the feast of tabernacles. Thus, "give us seven days"
Likewise, this fast of Saul may be Yom Kippur, the tenth day of the seventh month in 1084 BC:
1 Samuel 28:20 "Then Saul fell straightway all along on the earth, and was sore afraid, because of the words of Samuel: and there was no strength in him; for he had eaten no bread all the day, nor all the night."
The enemies of Israel would feel the fast at Yom Kippur was a good time to attack.
1 Chronicles 6:68 "And Jokmeam with her suburbs, and Bethhoron with her suburbs,
6:69 And Aijalon with her suburbs, and Gathrimmon with her suburbs:"
1 Chronicles 8:13 "Beriah also, and Shema, who were heads of the fathers of the inhabitants of Aijalon, who drove away the inhabitants of Gath:"
2 Chronicles 11:10 "And Zorah, and Aijalon, and Hebron, which are in Judah and in Benjamin fenced cities."
Thus, the six day moon be over Ajoulon in Galilee in the east when Joshua asked God to make the sun stand still at noon. Thus, the moon was not the last quarter moon in the west in the Ajalon valley, but was the six day moon, first quarter moon, over Ajalon in Dan beside Galilee towards the east.
However, counting from Joshua crossing the Jordan Sunday in the 10th day of the first month, half an orbit later is Saturday, the 21st day of the seventh month = Joshua's long day, August 10, 1241 BC, with the last quarter moon in the west over the Ajalon valley with the sun at noon standing still. Then king Wan's dream be February 5, 1239 BC, his lunar eclipse day 13 of cycle 60 in his 35th year, September 24, 1205 BC.
Joshua built an altar at mount Ebal immediately after crossing the river Jordan, before Joshua 5:1 in the older Dead Sea Scrolls, 4QJosha. Because the feast of tabernacles was from the 15th day of the seventh month to the 22d day = August 3 - August 10, 1241 BC. The sun must return August 10, 1241 BC if the sun moved February 4, 1241 BC.
Deuteronomy 27:2 "And it shall be on the day when ye shall pass over Jordan unto the land which the LORD thy God giveth thee, that thou shalt set thee up great stones, and plaister them with plaister:
27:3 And thou shalt write upon them all the words of this law, when thou art passed over, that thou mayest go in unto the land which the LORD thy God giveth thee, a land that floweth with milk and honey; as the LORD God of thy fathers hath promised thee."
Then for Joshua to cross the river Jordan, and hike up to Mount Ebal, and to read the commandments, all in the same day, would require a very long day.
Joshua was at Gilgal before the Gibeonites asked his help. August 10, 1241 BC would be the last day of the feast of tabernacles.
Then, the children of Israel would be full and ready to fight a battle for 24 more hours on Joshua's long day.
If Joshua's long day was August 10, 1241 BC it would be on the last day of the seven day feast. If Joshua had already spoken from mount Ebal before capturing Jericho, then Joshua may have kept the feast of tabernacles at Gilgal when he was called on for help from the Gibeonites.
Numbers 20:1 "Then came the children of Israel, even the whole congregation, into the desert of Zin in the first month: and the people abode in Kadesh; and Miriam died there, and was buried there."
God may have moved the sun to the other side of earth at the death of Miriam the first day of the first month, February 4, 1242 BC. Then one year later there be a long day for Gideon to chase the Midianites across the dry Jordan river bed.
Or, Gideon chased the Midianites in daylight = the sun rise at midnight, or by twilight, to the river Jordan. Or Gideon crossed the river Jordan the same day Israel crossed the river Jordan to the south, and Gideon had the still water piled up near Jericho and the Midianites had the torrent of the full flood of the river Jordan further upstream, and were caught at the fjords of Jordan.
Judges 7:22 "And the three hundred blew the trumpets, and the LORD set every man's sword against his fellow, even throughout all the host: and the host fled to Bethshittah in Zererath, and to the border of Abelmeholah, unto Tabbath.
7:23 And the men of Israel gathered themselves together out of Naphtali, and out of Asher, and out of all Manasseh, and pursued after the Midianites.
7:24 And Gideon sent messengers throughout all mount Ephraim, saying, Come down against the Midianites, and take before them the waters unto Bethbarah and Jordan. Then all the men of Ephraim gathered themselves together, and took the waters unto Bethbarah and Jordan.
7:25 And they took two princes of the Midianites, Oreb and Zeeb; and they slew Oreb upon the rock Oreb, and Zeeb they slew at the winepress of Zeeb, and pursued Midian, and brought the heads of Oreb and Zeeb to Gideon on the other side Jordan.
8:4 And Gideon came to Jordan, and passed over, he, and the three hundred men that were with him, faint, yet pursuing them."
John 1:27 "He it is, who coming after me is preferred before me, whose shoe's latchet I am not worthy to unloose.
1:28 These things were done in Bethabara beyond Jordan, where John was baptizing."
Bethbarah = Bethabara.
Perhaps then there is a connection to John the Baptist baptizing in the Jordan at Bethabara and Israel taking the waters of Bethbarah.
"and the host fled to Bethshittah in Zererath" = Zaretan:
Joshua 3:16 "That the waters which came down from above stood and rose up upon an heap very far from the city Adam, that is beside Zaretan: and those that came down toward the sea of the plain, even the salt sea, failed, and were cut off: and the people passed over right against Jericho."
"before the waters unto Bethbarah" = the Midianites were caught at the torrential flood of Jordan upstream of the backed up water from the water dam at Jericho.
Joshua 8:30 "Then Joshua built an altar unto the LORD God of Israel in mount Ebal,"
Leviticus 23:24 "Speak unto the children of Israel, saying, In the seventh month, in the first day of the month, shall ye have a sabbath, a memorial of blowing of trumpets, an holy convocation."
Then in this eighth chapter of Joshua, Joshua must have read the law of Moses in the seventh month, on the first day of the month, the sabbath, Saturday, July 20, 1241 BC or the tenth day or the fifteenth day, the sabbath, Saturday, August 3, 1241 BC or between the fifteenth and 22nd day, the sabbath, Saturday, August 10, 1241 BC. The last day of the feast ot tabernacles August 10, 1241 BC could be Joshua's long day.
Joshua must have kept the feast of booths while in Gilgal. Then the Gibeonites may have made their urgent request for help Friday, August 9, 1241 BC and Joshua hasted to go up that Friday night before Joshua's long day.
Thus, the timeline to Joshua's long day may be very tight.
Or Joshua hiked up to Mount Ebal the same day they crossed the river Jordan, February 4, 1241 BC. Joshua 8:30 appears on that day, February 4, 1241 BC in Joshua 4 before Joshua 5 in the Dead Sea Scrolls.
Deuteronomy 27:4 "Therefore it shall be when ye be gone over Jordan, that ye shall set up these stones, which I command you this day, in mount Ebal, and thou shalt plaister them with plaister."
Judges 6:11 "And there came an angel of the LORD, and sat under an oak which was in Ophrah, that pertained unto Joash the Abiezrite: and his son Gideon threshed wheat by the winepress, to hide it from the Midianites."
Judges 7:13 "And when Gideon was come, behold, there was a man that told a dream unto his fellow, and said, Behold, I dreamed a dream, and, lo, a cake of barley bread tumbled into the host of Midian, and came unto a tent, and smote it that it fell, and overturned it, that the tent lay along."
The feast of unleavened bread, the Passover, was not celebrated until the Barley was ripe. Thus, this Sunday, February 4, 1241 BC was four days before the Passover Thursday, February 8, 1241 was the Passover. This means the Barley was ripe.
Wheat was threshed in July. Barley was harvested in March. In the Jordan valley crops ripen earlier than elsewhere. Then Gideon may have threshed barley in February. Thus, Gideon's battle: Sunday, February 4, 1241 BC or Saturday, August 10, 1241 BC, or Tuesday, February 4, 1240 BC or Sunday, August 10, 1240 BC, or Thursday, February 5, 1239 BC.
Joshua 2:6 "But she had brought them up to the roof of the house, and hid them with the stalks of flax, which she had laid in order upon the roof."
Flax was harvested in Adar = February. Also, at Jericho there is no frost all year. And also crops at Jericho ripen two weeks earlier than elsewhere in Israel.
Gideon's battle could be either February 4, 1241 BC or in August 10, 1241 BC.
The sun may move 180° back standing still in the sky for 12 hours while Joshua and the children of Israel crossed the river Jordan on dry ground. After sunset, in the east or west, there be a sudden sunrise and the sun moved to the other side of earth again, and earth flow into a reverse orbit.
Most likely the sun stood still in the sky for 12 hours while the children of Israel crossed the river Jordan for a long day for all of the people to cross, and also to hear all of the Law. Gideon's battle may be this same day, February 4, 1241 BC. Then the sun would be moved to the other side of earth being moved 180° in the 12 hours standing still in the sky.
Then earth would flow into a reverse orbit of the sun, and the sun move back again on king Wan's dream February 5, 1239 BC and earth flow out of the reverse orbit of the sun.
Judges 8:13 "And Gideon the son of Joash returned from battle before the sun was up,"
Then, half an orbit later, the 21st day of the seventh month, Saturday, August 10, 1241 BC be Joshua's long day.
The 21st day of the seventh month would be this August 10, 1241 BC the last day of the feast of tabernacles.
Leviticus 23:36 "Seven days ye shall offer an offering made by fire unto the LORD: on the eighth day shall be an holy convocation unto you; and ye shall offer an offering made by fire unto the LORD: it is a solemn assembly; and ye shall do no servile work therein."
John 7:8 "Go ye up unto this feast: I go not up yet unto this feast; for my time is not yet full come."
John 7:37 "In the last day, that great day of the feast, Jesus stood and cried, saying, If any man thirst, let him come unto me, and drink.
7:38 He that believeth on me, as the scripture hath said, out of his belly shall flow rivers of living water."
The civil year begins in the seventh month. Thus, the civil year is Israel's nationhood. Joshua's long day marked Israel's conquest and nationhood, the 21st day of the seventh month.
Then three years after the death of Miriam the sun move back and finally earth flowed out of the reverse orbit of the sun, February 5, 1239 BC on king Wan's first year, on the sun miracle of king Wan's dream.
Haggai 1:1 "In the second year of Darius the king, in the sixth month, in the first day of the month, came the word of the LORD by Haggai the prophet unto Zerubbabel the son of Shealtiel, governor of Judah, and to Joshua the son of Josedech, the high priest, saying,
1:2 Thus speaketh the LORD of hosts, saying, This people say, The time is not come, the time that the LORD'S house should be built."
Sunday, August 4, 507 BC was the first day, both the first day of the week and the first day of the sixth month.
Haggai 1:13 "Then spake Haggai the LORD'S messenger in the LORD'S message unto the people, saying, I am with you, saith the LORD.
1:14 And the LORD stirred up the spirit of Zerubbabel the son of Shealtiel, governor of Judah, and the spirit of Joshua the son of Josedech, the high priest, and the spirit of all the remnant of the people; and they came and did work in the house of the LORD of hosts, their God,
1:15 In the four and twentieth day of the sixth month, in the second year of Darius the king."
The 24th of the sixth month should be Tuesday, August 27, 507 BC.
Haggai 2:1 "In the seventh month, in the one and twentieth day of the month, came the word of the LORD by the prophet Haggai, saying,
2:2 Speak now to Zerubbabel the son of Shealtiel, governor of Judah, and to Joshua the son of Josedech, the high priest, and to the residue of the people, saying,
2:3 Who is left among you that saw this house in her first glory? and how do ye see it now? is it not in your eyes in comparison of it as nothing?"
Tuesday, September 24, 507 BC should be this 21st day of the seventh month. The mention of the name Joshua may be connected to the Joshua of Joshua's long day on the 21st day of the seventh month, August 10, 1241 BC.
Leviticus 23:36 "Seven days ye shall offer an offering made by fire unto the LORD: on the eighth day shall be an holy convocation unto you; and ye shall offer an offering made by fire unto the LORD: it is a solemn assembly; and ye shall do no servile work therein."
Saturday, August 10, 1241 BC was the 21st day of the seventh month when Joshua must have asked God to make the sun stand still in the sky. Even this priest had the name of Joshua too.
Zechariah 1:1 "In the eighth month, in the second year of Darius, came the word of the LORD unto Zechariah, the son of Berechiah, the son of Iddo the prophet, saying,"
The first day of the eighth month should be Wednesday, October 2, 507 BC.
Haggai 2:18 "Consider now from this day and upward, from the four and twentieth day of the ninth month, even from the day that the foundation of the LORD'S temple was laid, consider it."
Sunday, November 24, 507 BC should be the 24th day of the ninth month.
Zechariah 1:7 "Upon the four and twentieth day of the eleventh month, which is the month Sebat, in the second year of Darius, came the word of the LORD unto Zechariah, the son of Berechiah, the son of Iddo the prophet, saying,"
Wednesday, the fourth day of the week, January 22, 506 BC should be the 24th day of the eleventh month.
From this second year of Darius, 507 BC, in the seventh month is 500 years to Jesus' birth in 7 BC in the seventh month, possibly the 17th day September 12, 7 BC.
The solar eclipse of February 10, 504 BC was the third day of the month of Adar, when the second temple was complete, and thus the third day of a lunar month cannot be a solar eclipse but a sun miracle.
"A great God is Ahuramazda, who created earth, who created the yonder sky, who created man, who created happiness for man, who made Darius King, one king of many, one lord of many."
'The tomb inscription of Darius I at Naqsh-i-Rustam.
Proverbs 3:19 "The LORD by wisdom hath founded the earth; by understanding hath he established the heavens.
3:20 By his knowledge the depths are broken up, and the clouds drop down the dew."
Isaiah 42:5 "Thus saith God the LORD, he that created the heavens, and stretched them out; he that spread forth the earth, and that which cometh out of it; he that giveth breath unto the people upon it, and spirit to them that walk therein:"
Isaiah 45:18 "For thus saith the LORD that created the heavens; God himself that formed the earth and made it; he hath established it, he created it not in vain, he formed it to be inhabited: I am the LORD; and there is none else."
Thus, God created the universe and moved the sun around the earth.
From Sunday, the 10th day of the first month, possibly February 4, 1241 BC to make a long day for the children of Israel to cross the Jordan on dry ground - and possible dry ground for Gideon, then 188 days to Saturday, August 10, 1241 BC, again February 4, 1240 BC, and the sun move back finally February 5, 1239 BC for king Wan's sixth day; would make the moon over the valley of Ajalon when the sun was at noon. A possibility.
A long day Sunday, February 4, 1241 BC; that both was the crossing of the Jordan by the children of Israel and Gideon's battle. Two years later the sun would move back February 5, 1239 BC. Then, king Wan's eclipse would be in his 35th year, not after 35 years. A solar eclipse in March 4, 1250 BC may be the omen for King Wending to be emperor in China = king Wan's dream in his 12th year from 1250 BC is this same 1239 BC.
The Chinese count the current year. Thus, from the solar eclipse March 4, 1250 BC = emperor Wending's first year, the phoenixes on Mount K'e and king Wan's dream = a 12 hour sunset, in this 12th year Feburary 5, 1239 BC. Likewise, king Wan's 35th year from this first year of king Wan, February 5, 1239 BC = the lunar eclipse September 24, 1205 BC on day 13 of cycle 60, the current year.
Joshua's long day probably began as a normal day, the sun now at noon in the heat of the battle and the last quarter moon setting in the west. And Joshua chose the right day, half an orbit from the crossing of the river Jordan in February 4, 1241 BC.
Or, this was a normal orbit as well and God answered Joshua's prayer. Then God move the sun to the other side of the earth on Joshua's long day and earth flow into a reverse orbit of the sun. Then Joshua's long day be either 12 hours longer or 36 hours longer than normal. Then one and a half orbits later, the sun returned on king Wan's dream, February 5, 1239 BC and earth flow out of the reverse orbit of the sun.
Then, one and a half orbits later the sun moved on king Wan's dream. Then there should be a sun miracle two orbits after Joshua's long day and earth flow out of the reverse orbit of the sun.
The timing was important because if Joshua did not soon ask God to stop the setting moon in the west the moon would soon disappear below the western horizon. Together with the noon day sun = the sun at its brightest.
There must be 48 hours of longer days in a reverse orbit. From Joshua's long day August 10, 1241 BC to king Wan's dream February 5, 1239 BC there must be 72 hours of long days. And counting from the crossing of the Jordan, February 4, 1239 BC, there must be 96 hours of longer days. How much more likely Joshua's long day probably be 24 hours longer than 12 hours longer.
Both the sun and moon stood still at sunset in China for king Wan's dream, February 5, 1239 BC. The first quarter moon directly above and the sun just setting in the west on China, February 5, 1239 BC for 12 hours, and the sun and moon stood still on Joshua's long day, Saturday, August 10, 1241 BC for 24 hours.
If on Joshua's long day earth was in a reverse orbit and Joshua's long day was 12 hours longer not 24 hours longer, then after Joshua's long day, the same day in Israel, the sun move another 180° east or west and earth continue in the reverse orbit of the sun.
Then perhaps the sun set in the west on Joshua's long day August 10, 1241 BC and the next day Sunday August 11, 1241 BC possibly the sun suddenly rise in the east.
10:27 "And it came to pass at the time of the going down of the sun, that Joshua commanded, and they took them down off the trees, and cast them into the cave wherein they had been hid, and laid great stones in the cave's mouth, which remain until this very day."
"When the hand of God is raised against the whole horde of Belial. At this instant the priests shall blow the memorial trumpets and all the battle lines shall combine against them and shall divide up against all the camps of the Kittim to eliminate them. And when the sun travels toward its setting on this day, the High Priest will take up position, likewise the priests and levites who are with him, and the chiefs of the men of the rule. And there they shall bless the God of Israel. They shall begin speaking and say: Blessed be your name, God of gods, for you have made your people great in order to work wonders. From of old you have kept for us your covenant. You have openned for us many times the gates of Salvation."
The Dead Sea Scrolls, 1QWar Scroll. Col. XVIII. 6
And on Joshua's long day, Saturday, August 10, 1241 BC = the half orbit point = earth continuing in the reverse orbit of the sun - from Sunday, February 4, 1241 BC or from Saturday, February 4, 1242 BC, that day the moon set in the west, then the sun set in the west. Meaning the sun must circle the earth 360° in 24 hours - staying at the noon position for 24 hours, then the sun set in the west. Then one and a half orbits later the sun move back on king Wan's dream, February 5, 1239 BC.
NASA scientists should discover this reverse orbit within hours of reading the first chapters in the Chinese Classics printed in 1960. Reprinted in 1935 and 1949.
King Wan recorded a lunar eclipse, day 13 of cycle 60, September 24, 1205 BC in his 35th year.
"35th year of king Wen of Zhou, 1st month, day bingzi 13, during worship of the full moon the king announced, 'The many...eclipses are untimely, you should begin planning for the succession.'"
Yi Zhou shu. Xiao kai jie. ch.17
This is the full version in Chinese:
You can see the three lines, then the character for ten, another character, then the character for five, then the character for first, month, day Bing Tze.
The important part, is it after 35 years or is it the 35th year?
Here you see the character for sun and moon together twice, a few characters then the sun, then the sun and moon together again:
Here you can see a total solar eclipse in China February 23, 1241 BC, together with the sun miracle in king Wan's dream February 5, 1239 BC, and the lunar eclipse September 24, 1205 BC = "eclipses are untimely". Eclipses and sun miracles together.
"In his 11th year, Ke-leih smote the hordes of E-t'oo, and, having taken their three great chiefs, came with him to court to report his victory. The King put Ke-leih to death."
Note: The king at first appreciated the services of Ke-leih, gave him a libation mace, with favoured spirits of the black millet, and nine ensigns of distinction as cheif of the princes; and after all that, he confined him in the house of restraint, so that Ke-leih died from the trouble, and gave occasion to the saying that Wanting killed him."
The Chinese Classics. p.138.
The 11th year from 1250 BC is 1240 BC = one year after this solar eclipse, February 23, 1241 BC. The sun moved on February 4, 1241 BC means earth would be in a reverse orbit a few weeks later on the solar eclipes of February 23, 1241 BC. Wanting became King on the solar eclipse of March 4, 1250 BC. It would be very hard to produce the same solar eclipse for February 23, 1241 BC. Nevertheless, the actions of King Wanting/Wending the following year, may arise from the omen of this solar eclipse on February 23, 1241 BC in China.

Here you see in this February 5, 1239 BC = the first of 35 years of king Wan = king Wan's 35th year at the lunar eclipse September 24, 1205 BC, on day Bing-Tze 13 of cycle 60. The Chinese had two new years, one in spring and one in fall. This first month in September.
Nevertheless, the first month of king Wan's dream was in spring, the first month of the lunar eclipse was in fall.
The position of the planets, Jupiter and Saturn in the west at sunset, by the Pleiades, and the sun in Pisces. Jupiter and Saturn would be in Scorpius 180° away and the sun in Virgo also 180° away, 12 hours previous, just as was described in king Wan's dream in king Wan's first year.
Just one year later, in September of 1238 BC, Jupiter and Saturn would be in conjunction. Jupiter and Saturn were in conjuction at Jesus' birth September 12, 7 BC.
Jupiter travelling eastward, as do the outer planets, rising higher above the setting sun. Jupiter was a little above the sun at sunset February 16, 1240 BC.
Thus, king Wan's dream can not be February 16, 1240 BC, and also Joshua's long day cannot be August 24, 1241 BC.
Joshua's long day August 10, 1241 BC, and one and a half orbits later, king Wan's dream, February 5, 1239 BC, and Jupiter one sign further up = visible above the setting sun - it takes Jupiter 12 years to orbit the sun, one sign of 12 signes more above the sun at sunset one year later, February 5, 1239 BC.
You can draw a line straight down from the blue earth, to the right of the yellow sun, to Jupiter and Saturn above the sun. Thus, Jupiter and Saturn were visible in Fang/Scorpius above the setting sun in Virgo, February 5, 1239 BC.
The position of the planets on this same date, February 5, 1239 BC:
The 35th year from February 5, 1239 BC the sixth day of the first month of spring, the 35th year is this September 24, 1205 BC. The sun must have stood still at the sunset position in China, the noon position in Israel, for 12 hours, the sun moving 180° back and earth flowing out of the reverse orbit, both when king Wan fought with emperor Wending in Wending's 12th year from the solar eclipse March 4, 1250 BC = February 5, 1239 BC. Thus king Wan lightened the western regions and thus king Wan was clothed in the sun and the moon = his night clothes.
A lunar eclipse is only on day 15, not the unlucky number 13. Day 13 was day 13 of cycle 60, not the lunar day.
The sun at the sunset position on China for 12 hours = the sun at the noon position on Israel for 12 hours = Joshua's battle of Merom; possibly the two lakes by mount Carmel or Lake Hula, in Joshua 11 = Hazor burned, Hazor was the capitol and just north of the sea of Galilee by Lake Hula. This battle matches Deborah and Barak in Judges 4 and 5, six months after Joshua's long day August 10, 1241 BC on February 5, 1240 BC.
"a majority of scholars agree that the highlands of Canaan show a substantial population increase in the Iron Age I, between 1200 BC and 1000 BC - the time span of the book of Judges. Through excavations, archaeologist Lawernce Stager indentified a population increase from 27 to 211 sites, almost an eightfold increase."
National Geographic, Atlas of the Bible, The Song of Deborah, p.51.
Thus, the increase in Israelites from Joshua to those Israelites already in the land.
Thus, the time span of victory from Joshua's long day, August 10, 1241 BC.
Deuteronomy 11:29 "And it shall come to pass, when the LORD thy God hath brought thee in unto the land whither thou goest to possess it, that thou shalt put the blessing upon mount Gerizim, and the curse upon mount Ebal."
Israelites may have already been in the land before the Merneptah Stele in Merneptah's 5th year, of 1285 BC. Pharaoh Merneptah may have destroyed the Israelites in southern Israel and not in northern Israel = Israelites already in the land.
In the Valediction of Moses, these verses of the blessings and cursings continue from this Deuteronomy 11 to Deuternomy 27.
Acts 13:18 "And about the time of forty years suffered he their manners in the wilderness.
13:19 And when he had destroyed seven nations in the land of Chanaan, he divided their land to them by lot.
13:20 And after that he gave unto them judges about the space of four hundred and fifty years, until Samuel the prophet.
13:21 And afterward they desired a king: and God gave unto them Saul the son of Cis, a man of the tribe of Benjamin, by the space of forty years."
Thus, there was a substantial population increase when Joshua divided the land.
Joshua 18:2 "And there remained among the children of Israel seven tribes, which had not yet received their inheritance.
18:3 And Joshua said unto the children of Israel, How long are ye slack to go to possess the land, which the LORD God of your fathers hath given you?
18:4 Give out from among you three men for each tribe: and I will send them, and they shall rise, and go through the land, and describe it according to the inheritance of them; and they shall come again to me.
18:5 And they shall divide it into seven parts: Judah shall abide in their coast on the south, and the house of Joseph shall abide in their coasts on the north.
18:6 Ye shall therefore describe the land into seven parts, and bring the description hither to me, that I may cast lots for you here before the LORD our God."
Judges from Joshua's conquest in 1241 BC are 50 years to Samuel in 1191 BC, not 450 years. From Joshua's conquest to King Saul in 1124 BC is 127 years.
Acts 13:20 "And after that he gave unto them judges about the space of four hundred and fifty years, until Samuel the prophet."
Judges 3:30 "So Moab was subdued that day under the hand of Israel. And the land had rest fourscore years."
The Septuagint:
Judges 3:30b "And the land had rest eighty years."
Forty years from 1241 BC to 1201 BC, and 80 years from 1201 BC to 1121 BC, about the same 1122 BC Saul renewd the kingdom after two years.
King Saul reigned 40 years from 1124 BC to 1084 BC, David reigned forty years to 1044 BC (1046 BC was the 49 year jubile), Solomon reigned 40 years to 1004 BC.
Thus, David reigned the 39 years of Jesus life, from 1084 BC to 1045 BC. Likewise from 1045 BC to 1007 BC is the 39 years of Jesus' life, 1000 years to Jesus' birth about September 12, 7 BC.
1 Kings 6:1 "And it came to pass in the four hundred and eightieth year after the children of Israel were come out of the land of Egypt, in the fourth year of Solomon's reign over Israel, in the month Zif, which is the second month, that he began to build the house of the LORD."
Likewise, not 480 years, but 240 years from the Exodus in 1281 BC, to the fourth year of Solomon, 1041 BC.
Solomon completed the house of God in his 11th year. If Solomon was 20 when he began to reign, he would be 31 when the temple was finished and 41, in his 20th year, when he finished his own house.
Solomon's 20th year in bulding his own house, from 1041 BC to 1022 BC = 1050 years to the beginning of Jesus' ministry in Luke 4.
2 Chronicles 12:2 "And it came to pass, that in the fifth year of king Rehoboam Shishak king of Egypt came up against Jerusalem, because they had transgressed against the LORD,"
Likewise, Shishak king of Egypt - not in 925 BC, but 76 years further back in 1001 BC, the fifth year of Rehoboam from 1004 BC. Shishak died then that year.
Evidence of destruction 940 BC to 900 BC was not due to Shishak. There were other battles after Rehoboam.
2 Chronicles 16:1 "In the six and thirtieth year of the reign of Asa Baasha king of Israel came up against Judah, and built Ramah, to the intent that he might let none go out or come in to Asa king of Judah."
The 36th year of Asa would be 948 BC. Rehoboam 17 years from 1004 BC, Abijah 3 years, Asa peaceful till his 36th year: 1004 BC - 17 - 3 - 36 = 948 BC.
2 Chronicles 20:1 "It came to pass after this also, that the children of Moab, and the children of Ammon, and with them other beside the Ammonites, came against Jehoshaphat to battle."
2 Chronicles 20:17 "Ye shall not need to fight in this battle: set yourselves, stand ye still, and see the salvation of the LORD with you, O Judah and Jerusalem: fear not, nor be dismayed; to morrow go out against them: for the LORD will be with you."
2 Chronicles 21:8 "In his days the Edomites revolted from under the dominion of Judah, and made themselves a king.
21:9 Then Jehoram went forth with his princes, and all his chariots with him: and he rose up by night, and smote the Edomites which compassed him in, and the captains of the chariots.
21:10 So the Edomites revolted from under the hand of Judah unto this day. The same time also did Libnah revolt from under his hand; because he had forsaken the LORD God of his fathers."
918 BC - 8 years of Jehoram = 910 BC.
1004 BC - 17 - 3 - 41 - 25 = 918 BC = 950 years to Jesus' sacrifice. Thus, a battle in 948 BC and another in about 918 BC, another in 910 BC = this 940 BC to 900 BC layer of destruction.
Likewise Laschish was destroyed, also in Joshua's conquest, two days after Joshua's long day, dated to about 1150 BC. Likewise, if dated to Egypt, this should be 76 years further back. 76 years and 15 years back is this 1241 BC.
"One archaeological stratum dating from around 1200 BC shows signs of catastrophic fire,"
"Around 1200 BC, the devasting Bronze Age Collapse struck the Middle East, Greece and North Africa. Volcanic eruptions, earthquakes, tsunamis, and horrific drought struck the ancient world."
Ancient Iraq. p.36.
Not 1200 BC but 1240 BC, after Joshua's long day August 10, 1241 BC.
The effect of sun miracles on the earth, like Joshua's long day, may have played a role in "volcanic eruptions, earthquakes, tsunamis, and horrific droughts"
The burning of Hazor has been dated to the mid 13th century = 1250 BC, but actually Hazor was burned in February 5, 1240 BC.
The fact there was widespread city-destruction that year of Joshua's long day, 1241 BC, points to the Bible being very accurate. Just the scribe that wrote the account got the names of the cities wrong. But he got the names of two of the most important cities right, Hazor, Lachish. Thus the account was factual.
Joshua 10:27 "And it came to pass at the time of the going down of the sun, that Joshua commanded, and they took them down off the trees, and cast them into the cave wherein they had been hid, and laid great stones in the cave's mouth, which remain until this very day.
10:28 And that day Joshua took Makkedah, and smote it with the edge of the sword, and the king thereof he utterly destroyed, them, and all the souls that were therein; he let none remain: and he did to the king of Makkedah as he did unto the king of Jericho.
10:29 Then Joshua passed from Makkedah, and all Israel with him, unto Libnah, and fought against Libnah:
10:30 And the LORD delivered it also, and the king thereof, into the hand of Israel; and he smote it with the edge of the sword, and all the souls that were therein; he let none remain in it; but did unto the king thereof as he did unto the king of Jericho.
10:31 And Joshua passed from Libnah, and all Israel with him, unto Lachish, and encamped against it, and fought against it:
10:32 And the LORD delivered Lachish into the hand of Israel, which took it on the second day, and smote it with the edge of the sword, and all the souls that were therein, according to all that he had done to Libnah.
"the second day" counting from Joshua's long day and the sun setting the day Joshua took Makkedah = Saturday, August 10, 1241 BC - the next day was the first day of the week, Sunday when Lachish was destroyed - the next day was the second day of the week, Monday, August 12, 1241 BC.
Thus, Lachish was destroyed to the ground.
Joshua 11:13 "But as for the cities that stood still in their strength, Israel burned none of them, save Hazor only; that did Joshua burn."
Joshua burned both Hazor and Jericho.
Joshua 6:24 "And they burnt the city with fire, and all that was therein: only the silver, and the gold, and the vessels of brass and of iron, they put into the treasury of the house of the LORD. "
Thus, only Hazor and Lachish show signs of destruction, and Hazor also signs of burning, just as the Bible says.
"When Zhou was about to attack Yin, the five planets gathered in FANG [LM 4]."
[wenxian tongkao] ch. 293 xia; East Asian Archaeoastronomy, p.241.
"Present opinion is that there are three gatherings of the five planets in the transmitted records.."
East Asian Archeeoastronomy, p.241
(1) The 32nd year of Di Xin = 1195 BC = king Wan received the appointment of Heaven, (2) king Wan's dream February 5, 1239 BC, (3) when King Wu reached Muye, 1174 BC.
"In his 12th year, phoenixes collected on mount K'e."
Note: This was the 1st year of king Wan of Chow. The Chinese Classics.
Thus, king Wan's dream was one and the same day, the same day of the five planets in conjunction in Fang/Scorpio, the same day of battle, February 16, 1240 BC, or February 4, 1239 BC.
This 1195 BC was about 1196 BC a keatze year, year one of cycle sixty from 2636 BC.
Most likely one year later, one year after the battle of Merom on February 4, 1241 BC in Joshua 11 and Judges 4, 5; be on February 5, 1239 BC, be king Wan's dream.
When Lu Yang pointed his spear at the sun at sunset at battle, about 465 BC or 464 BC, the sun reversed three solar mansions, that is, the sun rose from the west to the meridian. When Wu was at battle in 1174 BC he also motioned with his spear and was a sun miracle, perhaps the sun rose three of twelve zodiak constellations to the meridian from setting in the west like it did for Lu Yang.
We do not know the year Lu Yang pointed his spear and the sun rose in the west.
We do know Lu Yang was the grandson of Chu Ping Wang who died in 515 BC. Lu Yang lived before 450 BC.
We do know Purim in Esther was in the 12th year of Xerxes from 478 BC.
"According to ancient Chinese astronomy, there are 12 Ci, each of them consists of different Xiu (constellation, mansion). Therefore, even in Han dynasty, the annotator did not know She meant Ci or Xiu. Should Ci be translated as "group of constellations"? I am not sure." -- Translation by Xueshun Liu.
3 groups of 2 = 6 or 90°. You can easily see again below, depicted at the bottom "3 stalls". Three solar mansions could simply mean the sun moved 3 X 360°. In this scenario a few hundred years before king Hezekiah would see the sun retreat from the dawn position to rise in the west and retreat to the dawn position and the illness having remitted, gone up that day perhaps as the sun suddenly ascended as it may have for Jesus on the resurrection Sunday; and gone up the third day into the temple.
Nevertheless, three solar mansions = 3 X 2 hours = 6 hours of 24 hours = 90° = the sun rose from the western horizon to the meridian, noon, position in China:
The character on the top right is "Lu" = a bird grasping the sun = the phoenix:
Here you can see three shi means six hours:
Lu Yang being the grandson of Chu Ping Wang who died in 515 BC. Lu Yang lived before 450 BC.
2 Kings 20:8b "What shall be the sign that the LORD will heal me, and that I shall go up into the house of the LORD the third day?"
The third day was a type of Jesus' resurrection the third day from Friday, that is, Sunday, April 5, 33 AD.
2 Kings 20:9 "And Isaiah said, This sign shalt thou have of the LORD, that the LORD will do the thing that he hath spoken: shall the shadow go forward ten degrees, or go back ten degrees?"
The sun may have been at the meridian, at noon. God may have asked if the noon sun should presently set in the west or the east. Just like Lu Yang, the setting sun in China = the noon sun in Israel. The sun rising in the west on China to the meridian = the noon day sun setting in the east.
Thus, this account by Lu Yang in 464 BC = the account by Hezekiah in 703 BC.
703 BC - 464 BC = 239 years = 200 + 39 years, the 39 years of Jesus' perfect life.
Ten steps on the sun dial of Ahaz may be from sunrise to midday. Thus, the noon day sun be moved either forward or backward.
God moving the sun from noon to the east to dawn at the same rate the sun passes east west each day, would mean in this six hours the sun would have passed 180°, and earth may flow into or out of a reverse orbit of the sun.
This would mean the noon sun in Israel be the setting sun in China. The sun moved from noon to dawn = the setting sun in China moved from sunset in the west to pass to the meridian, noon, in China = all these many records of these events in China.
In Esther Purim was the 13th day of the 12th month of Adar in the 12th year of Xerxes. Counting the 12th year from 477 BC into the new year January of 464 BC, the 13th of Adar should be Friday, January 27, 464 BC thus the sabbath Saturday, the next day 14 of Adar.
That is, counting from the spring of 476 BC, the 12th year from the spring of 465 BC (476 BC - 11 years = 465 BC) = second month of Adar 13 = Sunday, February 26, 464 BC.
Thus, Sunday was the first day of the casting of lots, the first day of the week.
One year before was the first month Nissan, on day one of the month, Friday, February 26, 465 BC. The sun may have moved to the other side of earth the first day of the first month and earth flow into a reverse orbit of the sun, then the sun may return and earth flow out of the reverse orbit on the same date one year later, on the second month of Adar 13, = February 26, 464 BC = the feast of Purim.
"In his 12th year (of emperor Wu = his father's death, king Wan in 1186 BC), which is sin-maou (28th of cycle, = 1049 BC corrected 1174 BC), the king led the tribes of the west and princes to attack Yin, and defeated Show in the wilderness of Muh. He took with his own hand Show prisoner in the tower of Nan-tan; and entered into the participation of the bright appointment of Heaven, setting up to continue the sacrifices of his ancestors"
Here you see the characters for sun and moon together = the bright appointment of Heaven, like above, the sixth character from the top left:
"In his (Te-sin) 42d year (from 1227 BC), (the first year of king Woo of Chow)" 1186 BC, when his father king Wan died.
"Reckoning from the 42d year of Show, when Woo succeeded his father as Duke of Chow." King Wan from his first year, February 5, 1239 BC = his death in this 1186 BC, and his sun succeeded him. 12 years to Wu becoming emperor in 1174 BC, six years to Ching becoming emperor in 1168 BC = 1700 years to Jesus' sacrifice. Ching reigned 37 years, like the 38 years of Jesus' life.
Wu reigned 18 years, from his father king Wan's death in 1186 BC to the first year of King Ching in 1168 BC. Wu reinged six years as emperor of China from 1174 BC to 1168 BC.
The Chinese have 12 signs, 12 months, a year. Thus three signs, three mansions, = the sun rising in the west to the noon position = the bright appointment of Heaven.
Joshua 11:6 "And the LORD said unto Joshua, Be not afraid because of them: for to morrow about this time will I deliver them up all slain before Israel: thou shalt hough their horses, and burn their chariots with fire."
"about this time" may have been noon the day before. The sun may stand still at noon for 24 hours = 360° February 4, 1240 BC. Thus the Assyrian omen: "If in Adar (February) the sun stands still in the middle of noontime: the land will experience siege (and) misery."
Joshua 11:11 "And they smote all the souls that were therein with the edge of the sword, utterly destroying them: there was not any left to breathe: and he burnt Hazor with fire."
The Tel Hazor ruins show the city capitol was burned by fire, "a scorched palace in the 13th century BC" probably February 4, 1240 BC = the battle of Merom six months after Joshua's long day.
The most likely date for the battle of Merom is the 21st day of the first month = last day of the seven days of unleavened bread of the Passover of the first month, Tuesday, February 4, 1240 BC or Wednesday, February 5, 1240 BC.
February 5, 1238 BC may have been the Passover, possibly another sun miracle on the same date.
"King Wan is like the sun and the moon, he lighted the western regions" not only describes the sun standing still at sunset in the west for 12 hours, Thursday February 5, 1239 BC or Friday February 6, 1239 BC, but also may describe the sun standing still at sunset in the west in China = noon in Israel, for 24 hours one and a half years earlier on this Joshua's Long Day, August 10, 1241 BC.
Joshua's long day may have been on a normal day and earth flowed into a reverse orbit of the sun.
We know the sun moved back on king Wan's dream exactly one and a half orbits later.
There should be whole years of reverse orbit.
The sun must move back and earth flow out of the reverse orbit.
The sun probably moved back on king Wan's dream, February 5, 1239 BC.
The sun may be moved east or west 180°:, and earth flow into or out of a reverse orbit.
So, was Joshua's long day on a normal orbit and earth flowed into a reverse orbit of the sun. Or was Joshua's long day for 24 extra hours at the exact half orbit point from the crossing of the Jordan River?
The sun did rise in the west and set in the east for Hezekiah.
Gideon's battle may have been Sunday, February 4, 1241 BC. The next day the "sun ascended" in Judges 8:13 may be a parallel to Jesus' resurrection Sunday morning, April 5, 33 AD.
For the sun and moon to be visible when the sun was in the middle of the sky at the same time, the moon must be either the six day or first quarter moon = the first quarter moon on Joshua's long day August 24, 1241 BC or the last quarter moon August 10, 1241 BC, and king Wan's dream, February 15, 1240 BC or more likely king Wan's dream was February 5, 1239 BC. From the lunar day in autumn an half orbit later is on about the same lunar day, 178 days = 6 X 29.5 days. From August 10, 1241 BC to February 5, 1239 BC is 365 days + this half orbit of 178 days.
Nevertheless, king Wan's dream most likely was one and a half orbits later, February 5, 1239 BC, from Joshua's long day August 10, 1241 BC.
Most likely this was a normal day and Joshua see the moon rise at midnight when he and his soldiers climbed up to Gibeon all night, the moon now almost setting in the west, the sun above at noon, when Joshua made his request to God to stop the sun and the moon in the sky.
The Jewish people only had three watches at night. Thus, the middle watch at midnight.
Joshua may have asked God to stop the sun because the sun was already moving.
Or, simply this was a normal day, and Joshua asked God to make the sun stand stll in the sky = to stop in the sky, by moving the sun 360° with earth's rotation for 24 hours.
Then this Saturday, August 10, 1241 BC on the 21st day of the seventh lunar month = the moon setting in the west, and the sun at noon; was the half orbit from the children of Israel crossing the Jordan River, when there may have been a long day for two million people to both cross the Jordan and assemble at Shechem to hear the law spoken by Joshua.
Thus, this may be a normal day, only this be the half orbit point when it is easiest to move the sun, moon, and planets back and forth.
Or, this was a normal day and earth in a normal orbit, and God answered Joshua by moving the sun to the other side of the earth, by moving the sun 180° with earth's rotation for 12 hours.
Then one and a half orbits later God moved the sun back on king Wan's dream, February 5, 1239 BC = 5 X 12 hours = 60 hours, long days in one and a half years to counter the 48 hour + 12 hours to exit; and another + 12 hours to begin = adds to 72 hours = one and a half sped up earth orbit a year and a half in the reverse orbit. 1.5 X 48 hours = 72 hours.
Possibly there was 2 X 12 hours = 24 hours, long day on February 4, 1240 BC and August 10, 1240 BC. Thus, there needs to be a long day of 24 hours as well as for 12 hours. Joshua's long day of 24 hours at the half orbit point from February 4, 1241 BC counters the half orbit point of sped up earth of 24 hours, half of 48 hours.
You can use a globe of the earth, move an object "the sun" to the other side and see earth is in a different season than it was. Then you can rotate the base of the globe to put earth in the same season. Only, God must have moved the sun up or down instead to keep earth in the same season. Then at the half orbit point you can rotate the base of the globe again by as much again = the sun may move back 180° and earth flow out of the reverse orbit as if it never was in a reverse orbit.
Earth is kept in the same season all the time, the seasons continue as normal in the reverse orbit and after the reverse orbit.
Thus, the day at the half orbit point is important, for this is the day God may move the sun, moon, and planets 180° back and earth flow out of the reverse orbit without a trace.
Thus, Joshua may have made his request on the right day, August 10, 1241 BC, half an orbit after the crossing of the River Jordan, February 4, 1241 BC.
Thus, the day "that the LORD hearkened".
Joshua 10:14 "And there was no day like that before it or after it, that the LORD hearkened unto the voice of a man: for the LORD fought for Israel."
Likewise, half an orbit after the crossing of the river Jordan, a long day, and the same day to hike up to Shechem for Joshua to speak all the law = a very long day February 4, 1241 BC. Half an orbit later may be a normal day, the sun at noon. Then likewise the moon would be seen all day six hours ahead of the sun to the west, the sun at noon and the last quarter moon setting in the west when Joshua asked God to make the sun stand still and the moon stand still.
The moon visible all day, the 21 day moon, the last quarter moon, is easier to follow than to see the moon just when it rises in the east.
Here you see the first quarter moon, the eight day moon = 55% rise on the Okanagan Valley, 4 PM Pacific Daylight Saving Time July 28, 2020 or 3 PM Pacific Standard Time. Thus, the moon's crown would rise on a flat horizon about 1 PM Pacific Standard Time = the sun at the half of heaven. Again, you can see how hard it is to spot the moon on the eastern horizon as it first appears:
Here you see the last quarter moon, the 21 day moon, at 10:30 AM, in Taurus. Both the sun and the moon are visible.
Here you can see the moon sets at 12:27 PM = the sun is exactly at the noon position when Joshua made his request.
The moon would be over the Mediterranean = the horizon and the moon setting at 12:27 PM = both the moon and the sun was seen by Joshua at the same time.
Because Saturn and Jupiter are so far away from the sun, the light from the sun as it moved would reach earth in eight minutes, and light from Saturn to earth would take over 80 minutes and light from Jupiter would take over 46 minutes; and thus they would appear to still be there in Scorpius more than one hour later.
Thus, the picture of king Wan's dream is the sun had set in the west = noon in Israel, and the stars came out, and Saturn and the first quarter moon, both at first appearing in Scorpius/Fang, shone directly above for 12 hours as they all moved 180° with earth's rotation to Taurus, then earth flowed out of the reverse orbit of the sun.
Simply, God must have moved the planets ahead before he moved the sun = counterclockwise with earth's rotation. Then all five planets would appear after sunset in China in Scorpius/Fang.
For Saturn to move 180° with the sun, Saturn would travel one third of the speed of light. Over one tenth of the speed of light, time on Saturn would slow and light from Saturn would dim.
When the sun set, February 5, 1239 BC: Saturn would appear in Scorpius/Fang, and the other four planets could be moved ahead of the sun as well, then all five planets would appear in Scorpius/Fang = from Virgo, by the sun, to Scorpius. Saturn have a 70 minute time delay = all five planets appear in Scorpius.
Thus, the sun would set on China, and the stars appear, the stars of the zodiac constellation Scorpius appear, the planets being moved ahead of the sun also then would appear in Scorpius above, even all five planets from sunset in the west to Scorpius just west of the Meridian. That is, Mercury would appear at sunset, and Venus, then also Mars, Jupiter too would be moved ahead of the sun and the light from Jupiter reach earth when Jupiter was in Scorpius.
Then Saturn that was already in Scorpius, because Saturn is so much further off = some 80 minutes for light to come from Saturn to earth, light from Saturn appear in Scorpius after sunset. Thus the planets to the east of sunset.
The five planets in the west in Scorpius at sunset means the sun was in Virgo in this first month of China spring February 16, 1240 BC = the sun must move back 180° to Pisces that night in China.
The new moon was the solar eclipse below India 14 TD August 17, 1241 BC. Jerusalem is about 19 TD. So, four hours from India to Jerusalem, and the new moon event should be 4 hours earlier than 12 PM = 8 AM August 17, 1241 BC. Then Joshua's long day be Saturday, August 24, 1241 BC the first quarter moon, or Saturday, August 10, 1241 BC, the last quarter moon. Thus, the moon should be almost 50% at the first quarter moon, and again about 50% at the last quarter moon.
Then Joshua could see the moon barely above the eastern hills at noon at Gibeon when he asked God to make the sun and moon stand still.
Or Joshua's long day be August 10, 1241 BC and Joshua would see the moon pass east to west from 12 AM to 12 PM and know the third quarter moon was almost setting at noon time, when God made the sun stand still at noon for 12 or 24 hours, and the moon stand still over the Mediterranean Sea in the west, and not set for 12 or 24 hours.
The moon would be setting in the west on August 10, 1241 BC at noon when Joshua made his request.
Likewise, Joshua's long day, the 21st day of the seventh month, Saturday, August 10, 1241 BC is seven days before the new moon August 17, 1241 BC.
Likewise, the seventh month in China:
"Scorpio, the Ho of Yaou, was considered, even to the end of the Chow dynasty, as an important guide to the knowledge of the seasons, as is evident from the frequent references to it in the writings of that time. An ode in the Book of Poetry, attributed to Chow-Kung, begins with the words "in the seventh month Ho passes on" - that is to say, passes to the westward at the meridian at night fall. From which it would follow that in the sixth month it was in the meridian at the same hour. This would have been the case if the seventh month had coincided with ours, or with the end of July or part of August, but not if the year had commenced with our December, as the Chinese say the year of the Chow dynasty always did."
"Here therefore is an argument against the prevailing opinion, which there are other strong reasons for setting aside, that king Woo, when he became emperor, ordered that the year should begin before the winter solstice, while the first month was still absurdly styled the first of spring...the months of the year fell into great disorder.."
The new moon in 1174 BC was January 3. The winter solstice in 1174 BC was December 31 / January 1. 1174 BC / 128 = 9. December 22 + 9 = December 31.
"The first mention of the cyclical name of a day is found in the Shoo, Pt IV. Bk.IV.p1. It is said to have been the 12th month of the first year of the emperor T'ae-kea."
"This is the only instance of the use of the cycle which occurs before 1121 BC." The decisive battle was the disappearing of the moon, just before the new moon, on day 29 of cycle 60 January 1, 1174 BC. The new moon was January 3, 1174 BC. Day 29 of cycle 60, January 22, 1121 BC was the fifth lunar day and does not work.
"In the first month, the day jin-shin, day 29 of cycle 60, immediately followed the end of the moon's waning. The next day was Kwei-ke, day 30 of cycle 60, when the king in the morning marched from Chow to attack and punish Shang."
The Chinese Classics. Books of Chow, Book III. p.306.
Like king Wan's dream in spring when the sun was in Virgo 180° from Pisces = the sun on the other side of the earth and earth in a reverse orbit.
God moving the sun to the other side of earth means the constellations marking the seasons would move 180° moving in reverse. Thus,"the months of the year fell into great disorder".
"The passage in the Tso Chuen, in which Confucius is made to say that in the 12th month of the year, Scorpio was still visible in the west, is not intelligible, for the sun must have passed through Scorpio in October, and the 12th month was certainly not our September."
The Chinese Classics, p92 - 93.
All these points are solved by God moving the sun to the other side of the earth.
"ordered that the year should begin before the winter solstice, while the first month was still absurdly styled the first of spring...the months of the year fell into great disorder" = the sun on the other side of earth = the sun in Virgo in the first month of spring and earth in a reverse orbit of the sun.
"In the seventh month Ho passes on" Counting from December seven months is June. Ho, Antares, transits at 4 PM, sets at 9 PM August 20, 1241 BC = Ho is setting at 8 PM. Ho is transiting at 10 PM May 20, 1241 BC. So how is Ho transiting in April / May be in the seventh month counting from December?
"The 12th month Scorpio visible in the west" The sun is in Scorpio in the fall in Yao's time - Scorpio has already set in the west. In king Wan's time the sun was in Virgo and was setting with Scorpio above = the sun on the other side of the earth and earth in a reverse orbit. Normally, the sun would be in Scorpio in the 12th month - so how is Scorpio visible?
From Ramah above Gibeon, the place of Joshua's battle, possibly, the first quarter moon be visible at noon, above the Jordan hills at about the same elevation. Then, again, after Joshua chased the Amorites down Bethoron and into the Ajalon valley and take Makkedah.
Or, this was the last quarter moon, the sun at the noon position in the middle of the sky and the moon setting over Ajalon in the west.
From Ramah, Joshua would point to the sun on his right above Gibeon and with his left hand to the Ajalon valley in the west.
Makkedah was near Lachish. For Joshua to take Makkedah on Joshua's long day he would have to travel more than 35 miles from Gibeon and need at least 12 more hours of daylight, probably 24 more hours of daylight.
There are more than ten more miles from Azekah to Makkedah.
Then the eastern horizon would again be nearly flat, and the first quarter moon again visible at noon when the sun stood still in the middle of the sky.
The first quarter moon can be seen from this Ramah, above Gibeon, to the north east where Ajloun is in Jordan and where Aijalon is in Zebulun, towards Galilee. A third Ajloun is in Jordan where Gideon went pursuing the Midianites, perhaps the same day as Joshua's long day.
Nevertheless, Joshua's long day may have been the last quarter moon = the moon on the western horizon. Also, Makkedah is about ten miles east of Lachish, meaning the hillside block the view east, just as it did from the picture from Bethshemesh.
There are five towns by the name of Ajalon in the Bible. So, either of these two towns north of Gibeon could be the Ajalon Joshua spoke of instead of the descent of Bethoron below Gibeon.
Judges 12:12 "And Elon the Zebulunite died, and was buried in Aijalon in the country of Zebulun."
Habakukk 3:11 "The sun and moon stood still in their habitation:"
The Hebrew for "habitation" is the word "zebulun". The tribe of Zebulun is where Nazareth is. Aijalon is to the north east of Gibeon in Galilee.
Then this same day Gideon in Judges 6, 7, 8, may have fought the Midianites about where this Ajloun was. Then Joshua's prayer may have included his prayer for the battle of Gideon to the north east the same day.
Hebrews 11:32 "And what shall I more say? for the time would fail me to tell of Gedeon, and of Barak, and of Samson, and of Jephthae; of David also, and Samuel, and of the prophets:"
Thus, Gideon was mentioned before Barak, the battle of Gideon be Joshua's long day and the battle of Barak and Deborah be six months later = the battle at Merom February 5, 1240 BC.
Judges 8:4 "And Gideon came to Jordan, and passed over, he, and the three hundred men that were with him, faint, yet pursuing them."
The River Jordan would be at its lowest August 24, 1241 BC or August 10, 1241 BC, and thus Gideon and his 300 men could cross over.
Or, the battle of Gideon in Judges 6, 7, 8, be on Sunday, February 4, 1241 BC when God heaped up the flood waters of the river Jordan 30 miles north of Jericho at Adam and Zeratan. Thus, Gideon could cross the dry river bed of Jordan to slay the Midianites and catch the kings Zeba and Zulmunna.
More likely, there was a high wall of water to the right of the children of Israel when they crossed the Jordan on dry land. Then, the water backed up all the way to Zeratan and above Adam. Then, Gideon may have crossed the damed and still water south, and the Midianites be caught before the rushing flood waters of Jordan north.
Judges 7:24 "And Gideon sent messengers throughout all mount Ephraim, saying, Come down against the Midianites, and take before them the waters unto Bethbarah and Jordan. Then all the men of Ephraim gathered themselves together, and took the waters unto Bethbarah and Jordan."
And thus also, "and took the waters unto Bethbarah and Jordan." because the heap of the waters of Jordan just north of Adam and Zeratan.
Or the heap of waters was at the crossing of the river Jordan by Israel at Jericho. Then there be rushing flood waters north of Adam, and calm but deep waters backed up, yet less deep, south of Adam.
Thus, the rushing flood waters above Adam, and calm flood waters, below Adam, where the Jordan river may be easily crossed.
Likewise, the Gileadites took the passages of Jordan for Jephthah:
Judges 12:5 "And the Gileadites took the passages of Jordan before the Ephraimites: and it was so, that when those Ephraimites which were escaped said, Let me go over; that the men of Gilead said unto him, Art thou an Ephraimite? If he said, Nay;"
If this was the day Joshua and Israel crossed the river Jordan, the flood fast moving river above, and the wide but still waters backed up. "to take the waters" = to stop the Midianites from crossing the flood waters of Jordan at the point easiest to cross. The still waters would be that point easiest to cross.
John 1:28 "These things were done in Bethabara beyond Jordan, where John was baptizing.
1:29 The next day John seeth Jesus coming unto him, and saith, Behold the Lamb of God, which taketh away the sin of the world."
Bethbarah and Bethabara may be the same place.
Perhaps king Wan's battle with emperor Wending was the six day moon, the battle of Joshua, August 24, 1241 BC = the phoenixes on mount K'e, and king Wan's dream, another sun miracle, February 15, 1240 BC.
However, the Chinese record of king Wan's dream and his battle is one and the same day, the sixth day of the first month of spring, the first year of king Wan = his 35th year September 24, 1205 BC = his first year, February 5, 1239 BC = the long sunset, when the sun moved 180° back, the sun standing still at sunset in China for 12 hours, when king Wan was clothed in the sun and moon = king Wan's night clothes.
Genesis 1:5 "And God called the light Day, and the darkness he called Night. And the evening and the morning were the first day."
The light is Jesus.
Acts 26:13 "At midday, O king, I saw in the way a light from heaven, above the brightness of the sun, shining round about me and them which journeyed with me."
Acts 26:15 "And I said, Who art thou, Lord? And he said, I am Jesus whom thou persecutest.
Genesis 1:18 "And to rule over the day and over the night, and to divide the light from the darkness: and God saw that it was good.
1:19 And the evening and the morning were the fourth day."
Psalm 74:16 "The day is thine, the night also is thine: thou hast prepared the light and the sun.
74:17 Thou hast set all the borders of the earth: thou hast made summer and winter."
The sun and moon were created on the fourth day. Creation began with light, with Jesus.
On the fourth day you openned a great luminary in the domain of
forty-nine portions of light, seven
for three ages of darkness, seventy
in all the days of its domain
eternal to give light sevenfold
My God
Glorious festivals
Festival. Blessed be the God of
and judgement of righteousness
in the depths of darkness."
The Dead Sea Scrolls, 4Q440.
There was a gap of seventy years in Captivity, from 591 BC to 521 BC.
"eternal to give light sevenfold"
Isaiah 30:26 "Moreover the light of the moon shall be as the light of the sun, and the light of the sun shall be sevenfold, as the light of seven days, in the day that the LORD bindeth up the breach of his people, and healeth the stroke of their wound."
This may speak of the resurrection morning.
Colossians 1:26 "the mystery hidden for ages and generations but now revealed to his saints."
"the mystery hidden" yet these many sun miracles from the past pointed to Jesus' coming, and that from the beginning.
Romans 16:25 "Now to him that is of power to stablish you according to my gospel, and the preaching of Jesus Christ, according to the revelation of the mystery, which was kept secret since the world began,
16:26 But now is made manifest, and by the scriptures of the prophets, according to the commandment of the everlasting God, made known to all nations for the obedience of faith:
16:27 To God only wise, be glory through Jesus Christ for ever. Amen."
John 1:1 "In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God."
John 1:4 "In him was life; and the life was the light of men."
Matthew 28:1 "In the end of the sabbath, as it began to dawn toward the first day of the week, came Mary Magdalene and the other Mary to see the sepulchre.
28:2 And, behold, there was a great earthquake: for the angel of the Lord descended from heaven, and came and rolled back the stone from the door, and sat upon it."
28:5 "And the angel answered and said unto the women, Fear not ye: for I know that ye seek Jesus, which was crucified.
28:6 He is not here: for he is risen, as he said. Come, see the place where the Lord lay."
Matthew 28:1 "Now late on the Sabbath, as it was getting dusk toward the first day of the week"
From the Darby English Bible:
Matthew 28:1 "Now late on the sabbath, as it was the dusk of the next day after the sabbath, came Mary of Magdala and the other Mary to look at the sepulchre."
The sabbath ended and the first day of the week began when it became dark. Mary came to the tomb at the end of the sabbath at evening, "the evening and the morning were the first day" - for the sun to rise when Mary came to the tomb, the sun must rise about 11 PM. Gideon attacked at the beginning of the middle watch, about 11 PM.
The sun rising in the west, then Joshua's long day, then the sun setting in the east, then a sudden sunrise Sunday, August 25, 1241 BC or Sunday, August 11, 1241 BC = the resurrection sunrise, Sunday, April 5, 33 AD.
"139 BC June 11 China. "Emperor Wu of Han, 2nd year of the Jianyuan reign period, summer, 4th month, day wushen [45]. There was a bright light as if the sun appeared at night."
East Asian Archaeology, p.89.
"the three Miao tribes were in great disorder and Heaven decreed their destruction. The sun came out at night and for three days it rained blood. A dragon appeared in the ancestral temple and dogs howled in the market place..." The Chinese Classics, Shun's 32d year 2191 BC.
"The horses of the Sun..May the sun with its seven horses arrive..Elsewhere it is said to be drawn by a dragon"
The Myths and Gods of India. p.95
Psalm 139:12 "Yea, the darkness hideth not from thee; but the night shineth as the day: the darkness and the light are both alike to thee."
Isaiah 45:7 "I form the light, and create darkness: I make peace, and create evil: I the LORD do all these things."
Joshua 10:32 "And the LORD delivered Lachish into the hand of Israel, which took it on the second day, and smote it with the edge of the sword, and all the souls that were therein, according to all that he had done to Libnah."
Lachish was destroyed on the second day, the second day of the week, Monday, from Joshua's long day, Saturday August 10, 1241 BC. Monday the second day of the week, August 12, 1241 BC.
Next Hazor was burned that year, perhaps February 16, 1240 BC or February 4, 1240 BC. The date given by Wikipedia is 1150 BC. With the Egyptian chronology 76 years too recent, the real date of its destruction should match the Bible account 91 years earlier = 1150 BC + 76 + 15 = 1241 BC.
Then 650 years later, 13 X 50 years later, Jerusalem was burned September 9 = the ninth of Av, in 591 BC. 500 years from the 50 year jubile in 1091 BC to 591 BC. 1091 BC = the 14th year of emperor Ch'aou in China:
From 1091 BC are seven years to the reign of David from 1084 BC.
"In his (King K'ang) 26th year, in the autumn, in the 9th month, on day ke-wei (56th of cycle 60), the king died."
The Chinese Classics, The Annals of the Bamboo Books. p.149.
Thus, King K'ang died after the seventh month of 1107 BC, in the 9th month. A sun miracle in autumn of 1107 BC may be an omen of Jesus' birth that the Chinese took to change emperors, in the seventh month, about September 12, 7 BC.
Day 56 = October 2, 1107 BC = the new moon; or the new moon, December 1, 1107 BC.
From King K'ang's death in 1107 BC = 1100 years to Jesus' birth about September 12, 7 BC; less 120 years = two 60 year cycles to 987 BC; less 19 years for emperor Ch'aou to 968 BC = 1000 years to Jesus' sacrifice = this sun miracle in Ch'aou's 19th year:
Then there is a 3 year gap between 968 BC and emperor Muh in 965 BC.
"In his, Ch'aou's, 14th year, in the summer, in the 4th month, the regular stars were invisible.".."In his 19th year, in the spring, a comet appeared in the space Tsze-mei (including the stars around the north pole). The duke of Tse and the baron of Sin followed the king against Ts'oo. The heavens were dark and temptestuous. Pheasants and hares were terrified. The king's armies perished in the Han. The king died."
The Chinese Classics, The Annals of the Bamboo Books. p.149.
Jeremiah 52:12 "Now in the fifth month, in the tenth day of the month, which was the nineteenth year of Nebuchadrezzar king of Babylon, came Nebuzaradan, captain of the guard, which served the king of Babylon, into Jerusalem,
52:13 And burned the house of the LORD, and the king's house; and all the houses of Jerusalem, and all the houses of the great men, burned he with fire:"
Jerusalem was taken at the darkness at noon on the seventh day of the lunar month and the seventh day of the week, September 7, 591 BC. Three days later Nebuchadrezzar burned down the temple at Jerusalem, September 10, 591 BC.
19 years earlier than Zedekiah's 10th year - Zedekiah reigned 11 years to his 12th year in 591 BC, equals 611 BC, the 30th year from the 50 year jubile from Joshua's long day in 1241 BC.
Ezekiel 1:1 "Now it came to pass in the thirtieth year, in the fourth month, in the fifth day of the month, as I was among the captives by the river of Chebar, that the heavens were opened, and I saw visions of God."
2 Kings 25:8 "And in the fifth month, on the seventh day of the month, which is the nineteenth year of king Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon, came Nebuzaradan, captain of the guard, a servant of the king of Babylon, unto Jerusalem:
25:9 And he burnt the house of the LORD, and the king's house, and all the houses of Jerusalem, and every great man's house burnt he with fire."
September 7, 591 BC was both Saturday, the seventh day of the week, and the seventh day of the month.
Jeremiah 34:14 "At the end of seven years let ye go every man his brother an Hebrew, which hath been sold unto thee; and when he hath served thee six years, thou shalt let him go free from thee: but your fathers hearkened not unto me, neither inclined their ear."
Jeremiah 34:16 "But ye turned and polluted my name, and caused every man his servant, and every man his handmaid, whom ye had set at liberty at their pleasure, to return, and brought them into subjection, to be unto you for servants and for handmaids.
34:17 Therefore thus saith the LORD; Ye have not hearkened unto me, in proclaiming liberty, every one to his brother, and every man to his neighbour: behold, I proclaim a liberty for you, saith the LORD, to the sword, to the pestilence, and to the famine; and I will make you to be removed into all the kingdoms of the earth."
The 49 year jubile was in 605 BC from 1242 BC. 7 years to 598 BC and 7 more years to the 50 year jubile from Joshua's long day in 1241 BC in 591 BC.
"In his 14th year, in the summer, in the 4th month, the regular stars were invisible. In the Autumn, in the 7th month, the people of Loo killed their ruler Tsae"
The Chinese Classics, the Bamboo Books.
Thus a sun miracle in this 1091 BC, even a sun miracle in the seventh month, Yom Kippur, of the jubile in this 1091 BC year of the jubile from the crossing of the river Jordan in 1241 BC.
This Yom Kippur, this 50th jubile, 1091 BC, may have been the last year the children of Israel let their land be fallow. The captivity September 7, 591 BC began the 70 years to equal all the years the children of Israel did not let the land lay fallow, all the seventh years and jubile years, 490 years.
Likewise, Yom Kippur, September 4, 1122 BC (September means seventh) was also a jubile counting 50 year jubiles to Jesus beginning his ministry in Nazareth, speaking in Luke 4 reading from Isaiah 61.
Then 13 X 49 years after 1241 BC was the first captivity of Jerusalem in 605 BC and the second captivity of Jerusalem in 591 BC = 13 X 50 years after 1241 BC in 591 BC.
2 Kings 24:1 "In his days Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon came up, and Jehoiakim became his servant three years: then he turned and rebelled against him."
From the death of Manessah in 646 BC/645 BC, two years of Amon, then from Josiah in 644 BC, 31 years to 613 BC, 11 years of Jehoiakim to 603 BC. From 611 BC - 3 years 607 BC = 600 years to the birth of Jesus. The first captivity in 607 BC or 605 BC. If Daniel was twenty, Daniel may have been born in 627 BC.
There was recorded the destruction of the first Temple was in the 14th year from the jubile. Then, 14 years from this 49 year jubile in 605 BC to the fall of Jerusalem in 591 BC at the 50 year jubile from Joshua's conquest in 1241 BC.
591 BC was a 50 year jubile from Joshua's conquest in 1241 BC 650 years to 591 BC. 7 X 70 = 490 years is 490 years from 1081 BC to 591 BC. Only, 591 BC was a 50 year jubile = 1091 BC 500 years to 591 BC. That is 10 X 50 = 500 years = 70 sabbaths = 70 X 7 = 490 years + 10 years = 500 years.
Daniel 1:1 "In the third year of the reign of Jehoiakim king of Judah came Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon unto Jerusalem, and besieged it."
Nebuchadnezzar's first year was not 605 BC, but is 6 years further back in 611 BC. Nebuchadnezzar's third year = 607 BC.
Likewise, the fall of Jerusalem was not in 587 BC, but 4 years further back in 591 BC. Although there is no record of Nebuchadnezzar's destruction of Jerusalem. So the 4 years difference is not counted.
Nebuchadnezzar's 8th year was in 603 BC, his first year in 611 BC, his fourth year in 607 BC = 600 years to Jesus' birth in 7 BC.
The destruction of Jerusalem is not recorded in Babylon cuniform tablets.
Nebuchadnezzar reigned 43 years from 611 BC to 568 BC = 600 years to Jesus' sacrifice and a possible sun miracle taken as an omen to end his reign. About that time King Ling became emperor of China in 570 BC.
2 Chronicles 33:1 "Manasseh was twelve years old when he began to reign, and he reigned fifty and five years in Jerusalem:"
That is, Manasseh was born in 700 BC, was 12 when his father Hezekiah died on the new moon on March 28, 688 BC and reigned to his 55th year of life, to 645 BC. Sun miracles in China were recorded both on March 28, 688 BC and a solar eclipse, that was hardly visible in China, recorded in 645 BC.
There was a partial solar eclipse visible from northern China, August 28, 645 BC:
Thus, this record for 644 BC = not visible, year 13 of cycle 60 = 644 BC, the fifth lunar month from April = possibly August, but is year 13 of cycle 60 from 2636 BC = 644 BC, not year 12 of cycle 60 = 645 BC. Thus, the solar eclipse record may be from a sun miracle, not a solar eclipse.
There was no solar eclipse visible from China in this year 13 of cycle 60 = 644 BC or any nearby year.
2 Chronicles 33:21 "Amon was two and twenty years old when he began to reign, and reigned two years in Jerusalem."
2 Chronicles 34:1 "Josiah was eight years old when he began to reign, and he reigned in Jerusalem one and thirty years."
From the death of Manasseh in 645 BC, Amon two years to 643 BC, Josiah 31 years to 612 BC to King Jehoiakim. 11 years to King Zedekiah in 602 BC. 11 years of Zedekiah to the destruction of Jerusalem in 591 BC. Thus, these years must overlap at the year's end.
Manasseh must have been born in 700 BC to be 12 in 688 BC when King Hezekiah died. Then Manasseh lived 55 years from this 700 BC to 645 BC. Then Amon reigned two years and Josiah 31 years from 643 BC to this 612 BC.
"Proof of biblical kings of Israel, Judah deciphered on Jerusalem rock inscriptions".
This inscription in Hezekiah's 17th year, second day of the fourth month - Tammuz, Monday, June 13, 700 BC = Monday the second day of the week and the second Hebrew lunar day. Hezekiah reigned 12 more years to March 28, 688 BC, 29 years in all.
2 Kings 18:2 "Twenty and five years old was he when he began to reign; and he reigned twenty and nine years in Jerusalem. His mother's name also was Abi, the daughter of Zachariah."
2 Kings 18:13 "Now in the fourteenth year of king Hezekiah did Sennacherib king of Assyria come up against all the fenced cities of Judah, and took them."
2 Kings 20:6 "And I will add unto thy days fifteen years; and I will deliver thee and this city out of the hand of the king of Assyria; and I will defend this city for mine own sake, and for my servant David's sake."
2 Chronicles 36:5 "Jehoiakim was twenty and five years old when he began to reign, and he reigned eleven years in Jerusalem: and he did that which was evil in the sight of the LORD his God.
36:6 Against him came up Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon, and bound him in fetters, to carry him to Babylon."
The 11th year of Jehoiakim should be 603 BC, about the 49 year jubile in 605 BC.
Josiah may have reigned 31 years from 645 BC to 614 BC.
Then Jehoiakim's first year be 614 BC, and his third year be 612 BC and his fifth year be 611 BC/610 BC; 611 BC = the 30th year of the fifty year jubile from Joshua's long day in 1241 BC, and the fifth year of Jehoiakim.
Or the 30th year be 30 years and be 610 BC.
Jeremiah 25:1 "The word that came to Jeremiah concerning all the people of Judah in the fourth year of Jehoiakim the son of Josiah king of Judah, that was the first year of Nebuchadrezzar king of Babylon;"
The first year of Nebuchadnezzar = the fourth year of Jehoiakim = 611 BC, instead of 605 BC = six years further back.
Ezekiel 20:1 "And it came to pass in the seventh year, in the fifth month, the tenth day of the month, that certain of the elders of Israel came to enquire of the LORD, and sat before me."
The seventh year of Jehoiakim from 612 BC should be 605 BC = the 49 year jubile.
"King K'ing His first year was kwei-maou (40th of cycle 60 = 617 BC)"
The battle of Nineveh was not in 612 BC, but 4 years earlier, in 617 BC/616 BC.
"This collection..by Ashurbanipal (reigned 668 BC-631 BC)"
"The majority of the material there has to do with the predicting the future."
Archaeology, Age of Assyrian Kings, July/August 2024. p.40.
From 668 BC are 700 years to Jesus' sacrifice. From 631 BC are 38 years after 668 BC, the 38 years of Jesus' life. Portents of the sun, just like in China, were used to predict the future.
"King K'wang His first year was ke-yew (46th of cycle 60 = 611 BC)"
The first year of Jehoiakim may be in 612 BC.
King Ting His first year was yih-maou (52d of cycle 60 = 605 BC)"
605 BC was a 49 year jubile and seventh year of Jehoiakim, both his seventh year from 611 BC, and the seventh year and the 49 jubile year.
Thus, all these dates, 617 BC, 611 BC and 605 BC match these dates in the Bible and may match dates of sun miracles that in China were taken as omens to make a new King.
Jeremiah 46:2 "Against Egypt, against the army of Pharaohnecho king of Egypt, which was by the river Euphrates in Carchemish, which Nebuchadrezzar king of Babylon smote in the fourth year of Jehoiakim the son of Josiah king of Judah."
The fourth year of Jehoiakim may be 610 BC = the 30th year from the 50 year jubile in 641 BC.
Ezekiel 1:1 "Now it came to pass in the thirtieth year, in the fourth month, in the fifth day of the month, as I was among the captives by the river of Chebar, that the heavens were opened, and I saw visions of God.
1:2 In the fifth day of the month, which was the fifth year of king Jehoiachin's captivity,"
This should be Sunday, June 20, 611 BC:
The fifth year of Jehoiachin's captivity may count from this thirtieth year 611 BC, four years later, and be in 607 BC.
Or Jehoiachin's first year be in 616 BC = King K'ing's first year; the thirtieth year and fifth year be 611 BC.
The 30th year of Josiah from 644 BC would be 615 BC. Josiah reigned 31 years.
Pentecost is the fifth day of the third month.
King Jehoiachin's captivity from his first year in 611 BC is his fifth year in 606 BC.
Or 30 years of 50 years from 1241 BC be 610 BC, Jehoichin's fifth year from 614 BC.
609 BC = the first year of Nebuchadnezzar.
Thus, Nebuchadnezzar II, and the reigns of his three immediate successors are in question. Nebuchadnezzar II may have reigned from 611 BC, not 605 BC. Cyrus the Great may have reigned to 517 BC not 530 BC. 4 years + 13 years = 17 missing years in between Nebuchadnezzar and Cyrus.
2 Kings 24:12 "And Jehoiachin the king of Judah went out to the king of Babylon, he, and his mother, and his servants, and his princes, and his officers: and the king of Babylon took him in the eighth year of his reign. "
Zedekiah reigned 11 years to 591 BC from 602 BC.
The eighth year of Jehoiachin from 614 BC is 607 BC. 611 BC would be the first year of Nebuchadnezzar II.
The 11th year of emperor Hwan in China from 617 BC was in 607 BC when was rebellion often seen from the omen of a sun miracle. 607 BC= 600 years to Jesus' birth in 7 BC.
A sun miracle may have been an omen to change the Chinese emperor both in 617 BC and in 517 BC. Cyrus died 100 years later in 517 BC.
Jeremiah 36:9 "And it came to pass in the fifth year of Jehoiakim the son of Josiah king of Judah, in the ninth month, that they proclaimed a fast before the LORD to all the people in Jerusalem, and to all the people that came from the cities of Judah unto Jerusalem."
Again the fifth year of Jehoiakim should be 610 BC but may be 607 BC. The ninth month day may be the first day of the ninth month = 41 days after Jesus' birth the 17th day of the 7th month, September 12, 7 BC, is the last day of the eighth month and the first day of the ninth month.
Leviticus 12:3 "And in the eighth day the flesh of his foreskin shall be circumcised.
12:4 And she shall then continue in the blood of her purifying three and thirty days; she shall touch no hallowed thing, nor come into the sanctuary, until the days of her purifying be fulfilled."
Luke 2:22 "And when the days of her purification according to the law of Moses were accomplished, they brought him to Jerusalem, to present him to the Lord;"
From the 17th day of the seventh month, Jesus was circumcised the 8th day, then 33 more days to the completion of purification of Mary, is the end of the 8th month and the beginning of the ninth month, when Simeon entered that instant. From 607 BC to 7 BC are 600 years.
Luke 2:27 "And he came by the Spirit into the temple: and when the parents brought in the child Jesus, to do for him after the custom of the law,
2:28 Then took he him up in his arms, and blessed God, and said,
2:29 Lord, now lettest thou thy servant depart in peace, according to thy word:
2:30 For mine eyes have seen thy salvation,"
The 30th year from the 50 year jubile, from Joshua's long day August 10, 1241 BC, in 641 BC = 611 BC.
The captivity not in 586 BC but 5 years further back in 591 BC.
Nebucadnezzar reigned not from 605 BC, but from this 611 BC. The temple at Jerusalem was destroyed not in 587 BC or 586 BC or the solar eclipse of Hallys of 585 BC, but in 591 BC. From 586 BC back to 591 BC are five years. Back from 605 BC to 611 BC are 6 years to Nebuchadnezzar's first year in 611 BC.
Dates for the chronology of Nebucadnezzar should be corrected.
"Challenging assumptions: The 8.5-year rhythm of Earth's inner core"
Daniel 4:25 "That they shall drive thee from men, and thy dwelling shall be with the beasts of the field, and they shall make thee to eat grass as oxen, and they shall wet thee with the dew of heaven, and seven times shall pass over thee, till thou know that the most High ruleth in the kingdom of men, and giveth it to whomsoever he will."
There are about seven year missing from Nebucadnezzar's reign, and a further 13 years missing to the reign of Cyrus the great.
7 + 13 = 20 years, or 4 + 12 = 16 years, gap between Nebucadnezzar to Cyrus.
Ezekiel 1:1 "Now it came to pass in the thirtieth year, in the fourth month, in the fifth day of the month, as I was among the captives by the river of Chebar, that the heavens were opened, and I saw visions of God.
1:2 In the fifth day of the month, which was the fifth year of king Jehoiachin's captivity,"
611 BC = the 30th year of the 50 year jubile from Joshua's long day in 1241 BC.
610 BC was the fifth year of Jehoiachin from 614 BC.
Daniel 1:21 "And Daniel continued even unto the first year of king Cyrus."
Daniel may have been born in 620 BC and be 18 years old when he had been taken captive with King Jehoiachin in 602 BC in Nebuchadnezzar's 9th year from 611 BC. Then 611 BC = "the fifth year of king Jehoiachin's captivity,"
From when Daniel was born to the first year of Cyrus the Great of Babylon in 527 BC = Daniel was almost 100 years old, and Daniel be 100 years old, when Cyrus died in 518 BC.
Daniel lived to the first year of Darius. This could be Darius I in 509 BC. So, from 620 BC to 507 BC means Daniel may haved lived to 113 years.
The death of Darius II's father Artaxerxes was supposed to be in 424 BC, but must be 9 years more recent and be September 19, 415 BC.
Daniel may have lived to Darius II, from 620 BC to 415 BC = 205 years.
Or, Daniel lived to the first year of Cyrus the younger about 400 BC.
This lunar eclipse mistaken on September 29, 424 BC in Artaxerxes I's last year, his 41st year:
Artaxerxes reigned not from 465 BC, but from 458 BC, his 41st year, his last year, was 9 years more recent, in September 19, 415 BC:
Likewise, a solar eclipse on March 21, 424 BC, mistaken for a solar eclipse June 11, 418 BC:
The solar eclipse for the last year of Artaxerxes. "In the first days of the next summer there was an eclipse of the sun, at the time of the new moon, and in the early part of the same month an earthquake."
The Landmark Thucydides. 4.52.1
June is the beginning of summer, not March.
Or, 13 years more recent, the solar eclipse of January 27, 411 BC. You can see this eclipse path matches the solar eclipse of March 21, 424 BC.
January 27, 411 BC was a solar eclipse on day 41 of cycle 60 in China. Thus, the same day 41 of cycle 60 one year later; January 22, 410 BC, would be on the third day of Adar. And may equal the sixth year of Darius II from 415 BC.
Artaxerxes may have reigned 41 years from 458 BC to 417 BC.
If this is Darius II in his first year - not 424 BC, but 7 years more recent, in 417 BC, or 11 years more recent in 413 BC, Daniel may have lived 210 years, from 627 BC to 417 BC.
Daniel 5:31 "And Darius the Median took the kingdom, being about threescore and two years old."
The book of Daniel may have been written down at the time of Darius II. Thus, both Darius I and Darius II are recorded. Darius I was only 20 when he became king, not 62.
Daniel 6:3 "Then this Daniel was preferred above the presidents and princes, because an excellent spirit was in him; and the king thought to set him over the whole realm.
6:4 Then the presidents and princes sought to find occasion against Daniel concerning the kingdom; but they could find none occasion nor fault; forasmuch as he was faithful, neither was there any error or fault found in him."
After Darius II took the kingdom Daniel was envied. After 413 BC several years is 407 BC.
The "Passover letter" written in Elephantine in the fifth year of Darius II, from 412 BC, not 419 BC from the fifth year of Darius II 423 BC, but the fifth year from 412 BC is 407 BC = 400 years to Jesus' birth.
Or, the fifth year of Darius II may be from 413 BC, Saturday, March 19, 409 BC = 9 X 49 years to Jesus' sacrifice April 3, 33 AD.
Daniel 6:28 "So this Daniel prospered in the reign of Darius, and in the reign of Cyrus the Persian."
Or Daniel lived to the first year of Cyrus the younger, not 408 BC but 9 years more recent, in 399 BC and Daniel lived 230 years from 630 BC to 400 BC = the 230 years of Adam.
From 627 BC are 620 years to Jesus' birth. Back 40 years from 627 BC is 667 BC = 700 years to Jesus' sacrifice.
Adam lived 230 years, from year 700 = 4668 BC to year 930 BC = 4438 BC.
Ezra 8:1 "These are now the chief of their fathers, and this is the genealogy of them that went up with me from Babylon, in the reign of Artaxerxes the king.
8:2 Of the sons of Phinehas; Gershom: of the sons of Ithamar; Daniel: of the sons of David; Hattush."
Artaxerxes was the son of Xerxes, and was King 41 years from 458 BC to 417 BC. From 458 BC are 70 weeks of years, 490 years, to Jesus' sacrifice April 3, 33 AD.
There was a major earthquake in Greece, not in 465 BC, but 7 years more recent, in 458 BC. Thus, possibly there was a sun miracle in 458 BC.
Daniel 9:24 "Seventy 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.
9:25 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: the street shall be built again, and the wall, even in troublous times."
490 years back from 591 BC = the sabbath of the land, land not left fallow = 70 X 7 back is 1081 BC when David was king = the seventy years of captivity from 591 BC to 521 BC = 550 years to the beginning of Jesus' ministry September 9, 29 AD or October 7, 29 AD. Then 490 years ahead from the building of the wall of Jerusalem from 458 BC is Jesus' sacrifice, April 3, 33 AD.
"In the neighbouring province of Across-the-River, in Judah, there was discontent too, and the building of the Temple of Yahweh was delayed by a series of uprisings which were not really settled until the 440's BC."
Persians, Lloyd Llowellyn-Jones, The Age of the Great Kings. p.241.
440's BC is ten years too recent. The building of the wall of Jerusalem was in the 450's BC, in 458 BC = 490 years to Jesus' sacrifice, April 3, 33 AD.
"In his 10th year, Luh-ch'ing, the viscount of Yu-yeuh died, and was succeeded by Puh-show."
The Chinese Classics
King Ching-Ting's first year was 467 BC (500 years to Jesus' sacrifice), his 10th year was 458 BC (490 years to Jesus' sacrifice). Jerusalem was walled in 458 BC.
Often a ruler died when there was a sun miracle. Thus a sun miracle in 468 BC = 500 years to Jesus' sacrifice April 3, 33 AD.
"In his 7th year (from 467 BC = 461 BC), Seun Yaou of Tsin walled Nan-Leang."
Note. One copy adds: - "In the 20th year of Ch'uh of Tsin." (from 473 BC = 454 BC)
"His 2d year (from 474 BC = 473 BC = the year before the battle of Salamis in 472 BC) was ting-maou, the first year of duke Ch'uh of Tsin."
"In his 4th year (from 474 BC = 471 BC = the year after the battle of Salamis), the State of Yuh-yueh extinguished that of Woo."
"His 16th year (from 467 BC = 452 BC) was the the 22d year (from 474 BC) of duke Ch'uh of Tsin. In his 17th year (451 BC) the duke of Ch'uh of Tsin died.'"
The Chinese Classics, p.167.
458 BC was also the 20th year of Xerxes when Nehemiah walled Jerusalem.
From 468 BC and 467 BC is 500 years to Jesus' sacrifice, April 3, 33 AD.
Nehemiah 2:1 "And it came to pass in the month Nisan, in the twentieth year of Artaxerxes the king, that wine was before him: and I took up the wine, and gave it unto the king. Now I had not been beforetime sad in his presence."
12 years from this 458 BC = the first year of King Artaxerxes = the son of Xerxes = Xerxes died in his 21st year in 458 BC. 12 years from 458 BC is 445 BC. 32 years from 458 BC is 426 BC.
"His first year (424 BC) was ping-shin (53d of cycle 60)"
Perhaps there was a sun miracle in Arxtaxerxes' 32d year in 426 BC. Then China changed emperors in 424 BC.
Or from the first year of King Xerxes in 477 BC - 32 years also = 445 BC.
Xerxes died in his 20th year, 458 BC. The same year his son Artaxerxes became emperor. 458 BC to Jesus' sacrfifice April 3, 33 AD is 490 years. 458 BC wa a 49 year jubile.
The 20th year of Artaxerxes I from 458 BC would be 437 BC. 67 weeks, 67 X 7 = 469 years. 437 BC to Jesus' sacrifice April 3, 33 AD is 469 years.
Nehemiah 2:13 "And I went out by night by the gate of the valley, even before the dragon well, and to the dung port, and viewed the walls of Jerusalem, which were broken down, and the gates thereof were consumed with fire."
Nehemiah 6:15 "So the wall was finished in the twenty and fifth day of the month Elul, in fifty and two days."
Nehemiah 13:6 "But in all this time was not I at Jerusalem: for in the two and thirtieth year of Artaxerxes king of Babylon came I unto the king, and after certain days obtained I leave of the king:"
The 32d year of Artaxerxes would be 426 BC. King K'aou of China died in his 15th year from 439 BC, in 425 BC.
Nehemiah 5:14 "Moreover from the time that I was appointed to be their governor in the land of Judah, from the twentieth year even unto the two and thirtieth year of Artaxerxes the king, that is, twelve years, I and my brethren have not eaten the bread of the governor."
The twentieh year must be the twentieth year of Xerxes, the first year of Artaxerxes = 458 BC.
Daniel 9:24 "Seventy 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."
Seventy weeks = 70 X 7 = 490 years. From this 458 BC the wall was completed to Jesus' sacrifice is 490 years to April 3, 33 AD.
The two and thirtieth year may count from Xerxes and be this twelfth year of Artaxerxes. 458 - 12 = 446 BC. Often there was a sun miracle on years ending 45 BC = 38 years to Jesus' birth in 7 BC. The 38 years of Jesus' perfect life. Thus, this 446 BC and 445 BC.
The battle of Marathon in Darius I 31st year Friday, September 21, 480 BC = Jesus' birth Saturday, September 12, 7 BC = 35 years to this 445 BC. Jesus began his three and a half year ministry when he was 35 years old September 9, 29 AD or October 7, 29 AD.
Daniel 9:26 "And after threescore and two weeks shall Messiah be cut off.
9:27 And he shall confirm the covenant with many for one week: and in the midst of the week he shall cause the sacrifice and the oblation to cease,"
Sixty-two weeks is 434 years from the full moon and Passover, Sunday, April 2, 402 BC to Jesus' sacrifice on April 3, 33 AD.
There are 430 years from this 402 BC and the beginning of Jesus' ministry in September of 29 AD.
This should point to the desecration of the temple in 168 BC = half way from the seventh year, the year of release, 171 BC to the restoration of the temple in 164 BC = a 49 year jubile to Jesus' sacrifice, April 3, 33 AD.
171 BC was a 50 year jubile to Jesus speaking from Isaiah 61 in Luke 4. 168 BC was 200 years to Jesus' sacrifice April 3, 33 AD. 164 BC was a 49 year jubile to Jesus' sacrifice.
The midst of the week may be 423 BC. 70 weeks from 458 BC. 62 weeks and one week is 69 weeks, from 451 BC. Half way from 451 BC to 402 BC is 65 weeks, 423 BC.
The full moon on June 9, 411 BC, should be 11 years more recent the full moon on June 7, 400 BC.
Darius II reigned not from 423 BC, but 7 or 11 years more recent, from 416 BC or from 412 BC.
"the Four Hundred had managed to seize control of the Anthenian government.."
The History of the Peloponnesian War,
The full moon, the fifteenth lunar day, September 26, 402 BC would begin the feast of tabernacles. The blood moon of September 16, 5 BC, represented the blood of the priests Herod killed a few days before after the High Priest failed to perform the duty of Yom Kippur, the tenth lunar day, according to Josephus.
There was a lunar eclipse on July 29, 402 BC and on August 18, 404 BC:
"And this year ended.. Carthaginians..took Akragas (Sicily)..2 The following year during which there was an eclipse of the moon.one evening and the ancient temple of Athena caught fire.."
1.6.1b this eclipse took place on April 15, 406 BC.
The Landmark's Xenophon's Hellenika. 1.6.1 p.26.
Here are two likely prospects 9 years or 11 years more recent:
"His King Wei-leeh, first year was ping-shin (53d of cycle 60), 424 BC."
"His, King Ngan, first year was kang-shin (17th of cycle 60), 400 BC."
The Chinese often changed emperors when there was a sun miracle.
"Tensions came to a head, and, in 410 BC, on a day when a papyrus says the Persian governor was away, Egyptians demolished the Judean's temple (at Elephantine)"
Archaeology, September/October 2024. p.40.
410 BC must be about 400 BC. There may have been an omen in 400 BC of a sun miracle the Egyptians observed.
Jeremiah 39:8 "And the Chaldeans burned the king's house, and the houses of the people, with fire, and brake down the walls of Jerusalem."
Jerusalem was taken on September 7, 591 BC, and burned September 9, the 9th of Av. The walls rebuilt in 458 BC = 490 years to Jesus' sacrifice, 133 years later.
The first day of the week was Sunday = the resurrection Sunday after Joshua's long day, Saturday, August 24, 1241 BC or Saturday, August 10, 1241 BC.
However, more likely Joshua's long day was Saturday, August 10, 1241 BC, and there possibly be a sudden sunrise on Sunday August 11, 1241 BC.
Joshua's long day Saturday, August 10, 1241 may have resulted in the sun being moved 360° around the sun. Then there would be no need for a second sun miracle because earth would still be in a reverse orbit.
The second day, "which took it on the second day" followed was Monday = the second day of the week, probaby August 12, 1241 BC.
The sun may have rose in the east early and suddenly on the sabbath when Jericho fell, February 17, 1241 BC. May have, but more likely the sun moved two weeks earlier, February 4, 1241 BC. February 17 was 9 days from the Passover, Thursday, February 8, 1241 BC. Half an orbit after Saturday, February 17, 1241 BC was also on the sabbath, the sun and moon stood still at noon for 24 hours when the first quarter moon was in the east August 24, 1241 BC.
However, more likely the moon on Joshua's long day, was in the last quarter, 21 day moon, August 10, 1241 BC. The moon must be visible at noon, both the sun and moon in the eye of Joshua when he made his request to God, either the six day moon in the east or the 21 day moon in the west, when the sun stood in the middle of the sky at noon.
Then the sun may have returned one year later and earth flowed out of the reverse orbit of the sun, February 4, 1240 BC two years later, February 5, 1239 BC, on the first quarter moon = the sun on China on this western horizon and first quarter moon directly above.
Very likely there was two or three years of reverse orbit from February 4, 1242 BC to February 5, 1239 BC.
Joshua's long day either Saturday, August 24, 1241 BC day 33 of cycle 60, or Saturday, August 10, 1241 BC day 19 of cycle 60 in China. Jesus went to the cross Friday, April 3, 33 AD on day 34 of cycle 60. Perhaps another parallel of Jesus' resurrection.
"Crack-making on day bingshen [33], in the evening: (Charge:) on the next ding [34] day we should perform a bi-sacrifice to the [Northern} Dipper (dou)."
[Heji, 21348
"Divined on day [18]: (Charge:) the Sun will have a blemish. (Verification:) Indeed there was a blemish. [Heji, 33700]
"Divined on day [18]: (Charge:) the Sun will have a blemish on the west. This is a calamity. (Verification:) Indeed there was a blemish. [Heji, 33704]
East Asian Archaeoastronomy, p.20.
Joshua's long day was day 19 of cycle 60 August 10, 1241 BC. This day 18 of cycle 60 may be the same day, and the noon day sun on Israel = the setting sun in the west on China. The sun standing still could give opportunity to look at the western setting sun in China, and perhaps the sun would look different when the sun stood still.
Here you can see the sun looking through obsidian. The ancient Greeks used obsidian both as a mirror and to look through the sun. Thus, the Chinese may look through obsidian to look at the sun. But do not look at the sun! It is very dangerous.
Here you can see the sun looking through a chelcedony stone:
1 Corinthians 13:12 "For now we see through a glass darkly; but then face to face: now I know in part; but then shall I know even as also I am known."
This glass could be looking at the sun through obsidian. The change to mirror from lens started with the Strong's concordance published in 1890.
1 Corinthians 13:12 "Now we see through a glass darkly (ev anigmati, in a riddle), then face to face; now we know in part, but then shall we know as we are known."
"Now we can only discern things at a great distance, as through a telescope, and that involved in clouds an obscurity."
Matthew Henry, 1 Corinthians 13
To see the sun in its glory, darkly, as through a glass of obsidian.
Most oracle bones were made during the reign of emperor Wuding from 1393 BC to 1343 BC. Although there were some oracle bone inscriptions later.
Nevertheless Joshua's long day most likely was the last quarter moon = moon over the Ajalon Valley in the west, the sun at noon above Gibeon, Saturday, August 10, 1241 BC on day 19 of cycle 60.
When God moved the sun to the other side of the earth, the Big Dipper would point up instead of down, or down instead of up.
The sun may have risen in the west about midnight 12 AM Saturday, August 24, 1241 BC, or 12 AM Saturday, August 10, 1241 BC.
Joshua saw the enemy might get away. So when Joshua asked God to stop the sun, he did not refer to the perceived sun travels around the earth each day.
Job 38:13 "That it might take hold of the wings of the earth, that the wicked might be shaken out of it?"
In the Dead Sea Scrolls from 100 BC this verse, "the wings of the earth" is preserved, The Targum of Job, (11Q10, 4Q157)
Job 26:7 "He stretcheth out the north over the empty place, and hangeth the earth upon nothing."
No, Joshua knew earth orbited the sun.
How did Joshua know this day, Saturday, August 10, 1241 BC was at the half orbit point from February 4, 1241 BC when he and Israel crossed the river Jordan, when God may move the sun back, or around the earth for 24 hours to make up the 48 hours of sped up reverse orbit?
Perhaps Joshua did know. If there was a long day at the crossing of the river Jordan, Joshua would be very aware of a sun miracle. Joshua may be aware of sun miracles every six months during a reverse orbit.
Joshua may have known, this August 10, 1241 BC was the day.
People knew the earth was round by the time of Plato in the dialogue by Plato (427–347 BC) called the Phaedo (108e). Simply looking at a lunar eclipse, the earth's shadow from the sun on the moon is round = earth is round.
Aristarchus developed the sun centered theory in 310 BC.
Or this was a normal day, and Joshua saw the enemy might get away and asked God to move the sun with earth's rotation = to stand still from the half of heaven = the sun move from the one half of heaven back to the half of heaven. Earth already in a reverse orbit and Joshua chose the right day, or earth not in a reverse orbit, and this day August 10, 1241 BC be one and a half orbits, reverse orbits - to begin the reverse orbit and to continue in the reverse orbit to king Wan's dream, February 5, 1239 BC when God would move the sun back and earth flow out of the reverse orbit.
Joshua's long day was in the summer of 1241 BC both because of the 49 year jubile to Jesus' sacrifice April 3, 33 AD and because of the 50 year jubile to 591 BC, 70 year captivity, 50 year jubiles again from 521 BC to 29 AD when Jesus began his ministry on Yom Kippur to fulfill Isaiah 61. And 49 year jubiles from the end of 1242 BC when Joshua and the children of Israel crossed the River Jordan February 4, 1241 BC.
Frag. 12 .1 [the waters] which come down... 2 [...the waters] which come down stood piled up 3 [...the sons of Israel cr]ossed over when it was dry, in the 4[fi]rst month of the forty-fi[rst] year of their departure from the la[nd of] 5 Egypt; it was the year of the Jubilees at the start of their entry into the land of 6 Canaan; and Jordan was full with wat[er] towards all its banks and it flooded 7 [with] its water from the month... [...] until the month of the wheat harvest 8.......Israel"
The Dead Sea Scrolls, Study Edition, Volume 2. p.750
"the day they crossed the Jordan is the [x]th jubilee" = 1241 BC both the beginning of the 49 year jubile and the 50 year jubile.
That is, 1242 BC was the 49 year jubile, and 1241 BC was the 50 year jubile. The 49 year jubile would go on to Jesus' sacrifice. The 50 year jubile, with a 70 year correction at the captivity, would go on to the beginning of Jesus' ministry.
The 49 year jubile is to Jesus' sacrifice, April 3, 33 AD. The 50 year jubile is on Yom Kippur, the tenth day of the seventh month, to the beginning of Jesus' ministry, September 9, 29 AD or October 7, 29 AD.
From Adam in year 700, from 4672 BC to the crossing of the Jordan River February 4, 1241 BC is 70 X 49 year jubiles = 3430 years. 3430 years from 4672 BC = 1242 BC = the [x]th jubile = the 70th jubile. From 4672 BC to Jesus' sacrifice April, 3, 33 AD are 96 X 49 year jubiles.
The River Jordan flooded until the month of the wheat harvest in May. The text may refer to Barley harvest = the Passover and the seven days of unleavened Barley bread. The crossing of the Jordan was the 10th day of the first month, Sunday, February 4, 1241 BC when was the highest flood. May was not the month they crossed the Jordan.
Joshua 3:16 "That the waters which came down from above stood and rose up upon an heapH5067 very far from the city Adam, that is beside Zaretan: and those that came down toward the sea of the plain, even the salt sea, failed, and were cut off: and the people passed over right against Jericho."
The word for heap, H5067 = mass of water, dam; heap of waters.
The word for very H3966 far away H7368 = be separated by a paticular interval, far away, at a distance.
To see a wall of water thirty miles away, thirty miles north of Jericho, that wall or dam of water would have to be some considerable height.
More likely that wall of water was at Jericho/Gilgal and the dam extended up to Zaretan and Adam.
Like the crossing of the Red/Reed Sea:
Exodus 14:22 "And the children of Israel went into the midst of the sea upon the dry ground: and the waters were a wall unto them on their right hand, and on their left."
Half way up from Jericho to the sea of Galilee may have been Zaretan. The water may have formed a dam there at Jericho. The Jordan drops about 700 feet from the Sea of Galilee to the Dead Sea. The WAC Bennett Dam below is 600 feet high.
Psalm 89:25 "I will set his hand also in the sea, and his right hand in the rivers."
"in the rivers" both the Reed Sea = the eastern fork of the Nile River, and the Jordan River.
Psalm 114:3 "The sea saw it, and fled: Jordan was driven back.
114:4 The mountains skipped like rams, and the little hills like lambs.
114:5 What ailed thee, O thou sea, that thou fleddest? thou Jordan, that thou wast driven back?"
"The mountains skipped like rams, and the little hills like lambs" This may be the day Gideon attacked the Midianites, chasing them down hill to cross the river Jordan = "the mountains skipped like rams"
Joshua 2:10 "For we have heard how the LORD dried up the water of the Red sea for you, when ye came out of Egypt; and what ye did unto the two kings of the Amorites, that were on the other side Jordan, Sihon and Og, whom ye utterly destroyed."
"the water of the Red sea" was the Reed Sea = the most eastern fork of the Nile river. Thus, the comparison the LORD dried up the river, the Reed Sea, and would dry up the river Jordan also for his people to cross.
Psalm 33:7 "He gathereth the waters of the sea together as an heap: he layeth up the depth in storehouses."
Joshua 2:24 "And they said unto Joshua, Truly the LORD hath delivered into our hands all the land; for even all the inhabitants of the country do faint because of us."
Judges 7:14 "And his fellow answered and said, This is nothing else save the sword of Gideon the son of Joash, a man of Israel: for into his hand hath God delivered Midian, and all the host."
Habakkuk 3:7 "I saw the tents of Cushan in affliction: and the curtains of the land of Midian did tremble.
3:8 Was the LORD displeased against the rivers? was thine anger against the rivers? was thy wrath against the sea, that thou didst ride upon thine horses and thy chariots of salvation?"
Habakkuk 3:11 "The sun and moon stood still in their habitation: at the light of thine arrows they went, and at the shining of thy glittering spear."
Habakkuk 3:15 "Thou didst walk through the sea with thine horses, through the heap of great waters."
Note the words Midian = Gideon fighting the Midianites, and the heap of waters = Israel crossing the Jordan = February 4, 1241 BC.
The earth may tremble when God moved the sun around the earth, as on Yom Kippur, September 4, 1122 BC, this day Jonathon got the victory:
Here are many verses with the word tremble:
Deuteronomy 2:25 "This day will I begin to put the dread of thee and the fear of thee upon the nations that are under the whole heaven, who shall hear report of thee, and shall tremble, and be in anguish because of thee."
Deuteronomy 20:3 "And shall say unto them, Hear, O Israel, ye approach this day unto battle against your enemies: let not your hearts faint, fear not, and do not tremble, neither be ye terrified because of them;"

Job 9:6 "Which shaketh the earth out of her place, and the pillars thereof tremble."
Job 26:11 "The pillars of heaven tremble and are astonished at his reproof."
Psalm 60:2 "Thou hast made the earth to tremble; thou hast broken it: heal the breaches thereof; for it shaketh."

Jeremiah 33:9 "And it shall be to me a name of joy, a praise and an honour before all the nations of the earth, which shall hear all the good that I do unto them: and they shall fear and tremble for all the goodness and for all the prosperity that I procure unto it."
Jeremiah 51:29 "And the land shall tremble and sorrow: for every purpose of the LORD shall be performed against Babylon, to make the land of Babylon a desolation without an inhabitant."

Hoseah 11:10 "They shall walk after the LORD: he shall roar like a lion: when he shall roar, then the children shall tremble from the west."

Amos 8:8 "Shall not the land tremble for this, and every one mourn that dwelleth therein? and it shall rise up wholly as a flood; and it shall be cast out and drowned, as by the flood of Egypt."
Habakkuk 3:7 "I saw the tents of Cushan in affliction: and the curtains of the land of Midian did tremble."
There may have been a sun miracle on the day of Atonement, Yom Kippur, on the fast Saul called for = the same sun seen in China the same day, September 4, 1122 BC.
1 Samuel 14:15 "And there was trembling in the host, in the field, and among all the people: the garrison, and the spoilers, they also trembled, and the earth quaked: so it was a very great trembling."
"12th year of Kang (from 1134 BC = 1122 BC), in the summer, in the sixth month, on the jin-shin day, 9th day of 60, in China, the king went to Fung. and gave his Charge to the duke of Peih. In Autumn duke E of Maou died."
The Chinese Classics. p. 148
"And as the report of Gideon's victory came to the Israelites, they took their weapons and pursued their enemies, and overtook them in a certain valley encompassed with torrents, a place where these could not get over; so they encompassed them, and slew them all, with their kings, Oreb and Zeeb."
Josephus
The Jordan River at full flood this February 4, 1241 BC. The dam and wall of water at Jericho. This still dam water rise up to Zeratan half way up the Jordan River. The torrent of the spring run off above this Zeratan. Thus, Gideon was able to trap the Midianites at the torrent and then cross at the still water further south, from the wall and dam of water backed up from Jericho.
Psalm 83:11 "MakeH7896 their noblesH5081 like Oreb,H6159 and like Zeeb:H2062 yea, allH3605 their princesH5257 as Zebah,H2078 and as Zalmunna:H6759"
Oreb is from H6150 meaning"dusky at sundown". Zeeb is from H2061 meaning "to be yellow". Zebah is from H2078 and H2076 meaning "to slaughter, to sacrifice." Zalmunna is from H6759 meaning "shade has been denied".
Thus, the names of these four kings speak of day and night, a battle at day and night.
January/February was the season of heavy rain. The Jordan would be in full flood in January/February. From this 1241 BC the caledar backs up one day every 128 years = 10 days in the Julian calendar. Then February 4, 1241 BC would be January 25 in our Gregorian calendar = the highest flood of the river Jordan.
Judges 7:22 "And the three hundred blew the trumpets, and the LORD set every man's sword against his fellow, even throughout all the host: and the host fled to Bethshittah in Zererath, and to the border of Abelmeholah, unto Tabbath."
Judges 7:24 "And Gideon sent messengers throughout all mount Ephraim, saying, Come down against the Midianites, and take before them the waters unto Bethbarah and Jordan. Then all the men of Ephraim gathered themselves together, and took the waters unto Bethbarah and Jordan."
Thus, the heap of the water of Jordan above Zererath "the waters unto Bethbarah and Jordan" Ephraim cornered the Midianites in the flood waters that were backed up above Zererath, and Gideon and his men crossed the dry river bed of Jordan below Zererath.
More likely, the heap of water piled up on the right of the children of Israel as they crossed the Jordan river. Then, the water reservoir pushed far up to this Zererath. Then Gideon could cross on the still water from the dam. And the Midianites tried to cross further upstream and were caught in the mighty torrent of the flooding Jordan river.
Joshua 18:1 "And the whole congregation of the children of Israel assembled together at Shiloh, and set up the tabernacle of the congregation there. And the land was subdued before them.
18:2 And there remained among the children of Israel seven tribes, which had not yet received their inheritance."
Thus, Gideon and northern Israel may have been already in the north of Israel when Joshua and the children of Israel crossed the dry river bed of Jordan = Gideon and his men may have crossed the dry river bed of Jordan, the heap of water above Zererath = Zaretan 35 miles north of Jericho.
Gideon lay in wait at the fjords. The Jordan may have been dry at the crossing of the river against Jericho. Then, there be a dam of water 100's of feet high there against Jericho that reached to Zarethan. For the dam of water to reach Zarethan the wall of water must be more than 100 feet tall. Then the Jordan below Adam and Zererath would be very wide, yet still.
The rushing flood torrent above the still waters that were damed would be harder to cross.
Zaretan and Zererath may be the same place mentioned the same time, meaning Joshua crossing the Jordan may be the same time Gideon crossed the river Jordan.
Exodus 17:5 "And the LORD said unto Moses, Go on before the people, and take with thee of the elders of Israel; and thy rod, wherewith thou smotest the river, take in thine hand, and go."
Israel crossed the Reed Sea, not the Red Sea, part of the Nile River, as Israel also crossed the river Jordan.
"I continued walking along the shore of the Red Sea untill arriving at the branch of the Sea of Reeds which issues from the Red Sea,"
The Dead Sea Scrolls, Study Edition, Volume I, p.45.
Thus, the Reed Sea, a fresh water river to the north west of where is the Suez Canal.
"smotest the river" may refer to the river Nile in Exodus 4:9 or Exodus 14:21.
From the NASB Bible:
Exodus 15:8 "At the blast of your nostrils the waters were piled up, The flowing waters stood up like a heap; The deeps were congealed in the heart of the sea."
Joshua 3:16b "rose up upon a heap very far above the city of Adam"
Probably, the river Jordan stood as a heap at the crossing of the Jordan against Jericho and Gilgal.
Thus, the children of Israel would see a great and high wall of water right beside them as the water rose, and they even be fearful to see such a high wall of water.
Joshua 3:16 may refer to the flood level rising so far up stream, 30 miles up stream. That is, at Adam and Zeratan at 30 miles north of Jericho water would back up.
Possibly for 30 miles the Jordan river be dry from the Dead Sea to Adam. Then the wall of water at Adam may have been seen from Mount Nebo.
However much more likely the waters piled up right beside the children of Israel as they crossed the Jordan on their right, and the backed up waters reach 30 miles upstream, and the height of the water be hundreds of feet high = 700 feet up from the Dead Sea to the sea of Galilee; half way up at Adam = 300 feet high. The words "a heap very far above the city of Adam" means the river may have been backed up even very much further up, even above the city of Adam. Then this wall of water at Gilgal, on the eastern edge of Jericho, may be higher than 300 feet.
"the waters which came down..stood piled up..the children of Israel crossed over when it was dry..in the first month of the forty-first year..of their departure from the land of Egypt; it was the year of Jubilees at the start of their entry of the land of Canaan; and the Jordan was full with water towards all its banks..and it flooded with its waters from the month..until the month of wheat harvest."
Dead Sea Scroll, 4Q379
That is, until the Barley harvest, four days after Israel crossed the river Jordan in full flood, February 4, 1241 BC, which was already at the Passover, February 8, 1241 BC.
The children of the tribe of Rueben would see the Jordan piled up in a heap 30 miles north of Jericho from mount Nebo.
Most likely the water made a wall of water beside the children of Israel when they crossed over Jordan, and that dam of water would be backed up to Adam and Zeratan 30 miles north.
North from Mount Nebo was where the children of Ammon lived in Judges 11:26. "twenty cities" Judges 11:33.
The green area is the Jordan river bottom, the flood plains, the area towards this Adam and Zeratan:
Joshua 4:12 "And the children of Reuben, and the children of Gad, and half the tribe of Manasseh, passed over by fifties, armed before the children of Israel, as Moses spake unto them:"
Crossing the Jordan 50 at a time, one second at a time, 600,000 men = 2,000,000 people, would take eleven hours = all day. Eleven hours means the river rose to a very high heap. The river was already overflowing its banks.
Judges 7:22 "And the three hundred blew the trumpets, and the LORD set every man's sword against his fellow, even throughout all the host: and the host fled to Bethshittah in Zererath, and to the border of Abelmeholah, unto Tabbath."
Joshua 13:19 "And Kirjathaim, and Sibmah, and Zarethshahar in the mount of the valley,"
Zaretan, Zererath and Zarethshahar may be the same place. Then the flood would back up all the way to the Jabbok River three miles from Bethshean just below the sea of Galilee.
The settlements of the tribes of Rueben. Gad and the half tribe of Manessah, above the crossing of Jordan would be flooded. Jericho would not be flooded as Israel crossed directly towards Jericho. Gilgal, where Joshua and Israel would settle, most likely was flooded - possibly not too far north from Jericho.
Either the water piled up on their right as they crossed on dry ground and the water backed up 30 miles to Adam and Zeratan.
Or this heap of water was 30 miles north and dry ground all the way to Adam and Zeratan.
If you look 30 miles away you will know the heap of water had to be very high inorder to even see it.
Much more likely the wall of water began to build up right there opposite Jericho, and the children of Israel walked across on dry ground with a hundred or more feet of a wall of water on their right hand.
From Adam in year 700, 4672 BC is 70 X 49 year jubiles [x]th to Joshua crossing the Jordan in 1241 BC. Also, from 4672 BC are 94 X 50 year jubiles to Jesus fulfilling Isaiah 61 when he spoke in Luke 4 on September 9, 29 AD, or October 7, 29 AD.
The Exodus was the full moon, Friday, March 30, 1281 BC because that was the end of the sothis cycle of 1456 years from 2737 BC. 40 years in the wilderness to 1241 BC.
The sothis calendar backs up one day every four years = no February 29. Then 4 X 365 = 1460 years to the reappearing of Sirius July 16, at 4:15 AM before sunrise. Then, the calendar at July 17, one day before July 16, is the end of the calendar four years early. Thus, from July 16, 2637 BC to July 17, 1281 BC is 1456 years, four years less than 1460. years.
Exodus 13:4 "This day came ye out in the month Abib."
"Abib" means green, spring. The spring equinox was March 30, 1281 BC Julian. Spring today is March 20. This Julian calendar backs up one day every 128 years. So from March 30 to March 20 is 10 days, 1281 years / 128 = 10 days. Thus, the Exodus on the spring equinox.
Also, the equinox makes an ideal time to move the sun to the other side of the earth. At the equinox God would not have to move the sun up or down when he moved the sun to the other side of the earth - to keep earth in the same season.
The full moon or the new moon on the spring equinox will produce the highest tides.
Likewise Jesus' sacrifice April 3, 33 AD was the 14th day of the month that started on spring, March 20, 33 AD.
"And in the sixth year of the third week of the forty-ninth jubilee thou didst depart and dwell in the land of Midian five weeks and one year. And thou didst return into Egypt in the second week in the second year in the fiftieth jubilee."
Ancient Book of Jubilees, p.158.
Moses at 40 years old fled from Pharaoh in 1321 BC = 1350 years to Jesus beginning his ministry reading Isaiah 61 in Luke 4. Jesus would be thirty-eight and a half years old when he gave his life, his sacrifiec.
Thus, Moses at 40 was about the same age as Jesus 38.5 years old.
68 X 49 = 3332 years from 4672 BC = 1340 BC = 19 more years to 1321 BC. Third week = 14, sixth year = 5; 14 + 5 = 19 more years to 1321 BC. The 49th jubile should be the 68th jubile. The third week starts after 14, then plus 5 = 19 more years; 3351 years from 4672 BC = 1321 BC exactly.
Ramses II held a jubilee in his 30th year from 1357 BC in 1327 BC, from then on every three years. His third jubilee would be this 1321 BC that would be 50 year jubiles to Jesus' begining his ministry September 9, 29 AD, or October 7, 29 AD.
The battle of Kadesh, in Ramses II' 5th year, was supposed to be May 27, 1274 BC, but must be 76 years further back, on the new moon, May 27, 1350 BC. This battle is the most recorded of any ancient battle.
That year in 1321 BC, 76 years back from 1245 BC, Ramses II married a Hittite woman to make peace wth the Hitttites.
40 years later Moses returned to Egypt. Then was the Exodus in 1281 BC.
Then the fiftieth = 49 (fiftieth from 49 to 50) X 49.
This should be 69 jubiles, not 49 jubiles, a missing 20 jubiles. 49 + 20 = 60.
69 X 49 = 3381 years; 4668 BC - 3381 years = 1287 BC; second week = from 7 years, second year = 2 year = 1281 BC. To be exact from 4672 BC - 3381 years - 7 years - 2 year = 1282 BC - just before 1281 BC began in January that year.
From Yao in 2315 BC 21 X 49 = 1286 BC.
Chinese emperor Woo-Yih began about the spring of 1285 BC = 7 years back from 1278 BC, or at the total solar eclipse of June 15, 1284 BC.
About the same time in Egypt, Pharaoh Merneptah, at the dawn of a spring day, not 1209 BC but 76 years back, in about 1285 BC, unleashed his archers against the Libyans for six hours and routed the demoralized enemy.
A sun miracle in spring may be the Passover and be a noteable event in this 1285 BC.
The June 15, 1284 BC total solar eclipse you can see covered both China and Egypt:
However, there is nothing to say this battle had anything to do with a sun miracle. Nevertheless, Woo-Yih became emperor of China about this spring of 1285 BC.
The first year of Pharaoh Merneptah in 1291 BC would be a jubile year = both a 49 year jubile and a 50 year jubile as was the year of Joshua's long day 1241 BC. Thus 50 and 49 years later Joshua's conquest and Joshua's long day were in the Jubile year 1241 BC = 49 year jubiles to Jesus' sacrfice = the jubile recorded in the Dead Sea Scrolls at the crossing of the Jordan river, Sunday, February 4, 1241 BC.
Sun miracles were often in the spring often when there would be a new Chinese emperor. Emperors of China were often made when there was the omen of a sun miracle. This could be the dawn of a sun miracle, 1287 BC = 1280 years to Jesus' birth. Merneptah had a stele made about the same year:
Many, if not almost all, Chinese emperors began their reign in the spring. Many many emperors began their reign in a year X68 BC = a 50 year jubile to Jesus' sacrifice April 3, 33 AD. Sun miracles in year X68 BC pointed to Jesus' sacrifice.
The Merneptah Stele:
"The princes are prostrate, saying, "Peace!"
Not one is raising his head among the Nine Bows.
Now that Tehenu (Libya) has come to ruin,
Hatti is pacified;
The Canaan has been plundered into every sort of woe:
Ashkelon has been overcome;
Gezer has been captured;
Yano'am is made non-existent.
Israel is laid waste and his seed is not;
Hurru is become a widow because of Egypt."
"Israel is laid waste and his seed is not" Thus, there were Israelites in southern Israel that Pharaoh Merneptah destroyed. Then 46 years later, on Joshua's long day, August 24, 1241 BC, or August 10, 1241 BC, Joshua reclaimed the land, the south lands, for Israel.
The Merneptah Stele describes southern Israel as a rural community, not the conquerers from Joshua's long day.
This total solar eclipse of October 30, 1207 BC according to the false chronology would be just after this Merneptah stele in Merneptah's fifth year, which would be in 1210 BC.
However, Merneptah died not in 1205 BC, but 76 years earlier at the Exodus in 1281 BC.
There were Israelites already in the land in 1286 BC according to this stele.
Then, there also be Israelites in northern Israel.
John 4:20 Our fathers worshipped in this mountain; and ye say, that in Jerusalem is the place where men ought to worship."
The Samaritans worshiped on mount Gerizim, possibly from earliest times, before 1286 BC.
Joshua 10:13 "And the sun stood still, and the moon stayed, until the people had avenged themselves upon their enemies. Is not this written in the book of Jasher? So the sun stood still in the midst of heaven, and hasted not to go down about a whole day."
Joshua's long day is not a solar eclipse.
The solar eclipse is total in Israel just before sunset.
The sun stood still at noon, not sunset. The moon was visible - in a solar eclipse the moon is not visible but right infront of the sun.
From 4670 BC - 3381 years = 1289 BC, second week 1289 - 7; from 1282 BC, second year = 1281 BC.
From 4672 BC are 96 X 49 year jubiles to Jesus's sacrifice Friday, April 3, 33 AD. The sothis calendar backs up one day every four years. So counting the years by the sothis day is a difference of one day for 4672 BC and 4668 BC.
The life of Jesus back 38 years from this 4670 BC is 4707 BC = 4700 years to Jesus' birth in 7 BC. Friday, May 17, 4707 BC was ten days after the spring equinox and the full moon. Jesus was crucified Friday, April 3, 33 AD 14 days after the spring equinox on the full moon. October 12, 4707 BC was the full moon = the 14th day, then the 17th day be Tuesday the third day of the week, October 15, 4707 BC. 4707 / 128 = 37 days back from our September 22 = October 28, 4707 BC was the fall equinox = about the same 10 days before the fall equinox, that is 13 days to October 28, 4707 BC; Jesus born September 12, 7 BC and the equinox 10 days later September 22, 7 BC.
Galatians 3:13 "Christ hath redeemed us from the curse of the law, being made a curse for us: for it is written, Cursed is every one that hangeth on a tree:"
Thus, Jesus' perfect life of 38 and a half years that redeems us.
From 5372 BC to 4672 BC are 700 years.
The 700 years, not 800 years, in the Septuagint:
Genesis 5:4 "And the days of Adam after he had begotten Seth were seven hundred years: and he begat sons and daughters:"
The word 700 is the same in Greek today. The word for year, G2094, Strong's definition is "a year".
G2094 ἔτος etos et'-os Apparently a primary word; a year: - year. Total KJV occurrences: 49
From 4568 BC are even 50 year jubiles to Jesus' sacrifice, from 4572 BC are even 50 year jubiles to Jesus' ministry.
The model of moving the sun to the other side of earth and earth flowing into a reverse orbit means - the earth must speed up 48 hours a reverse orbit year to keep 365 days in a year. The sun and planets can move back at the half orbit point and earth flow out of the reverse orbit as if nothing had happened. The planets appearing in the same night time hour in the reverse orbit would move back exactly 180° with the sun to be in their normal orbit. Thus, the half orbit, the 188 days / 365.24 days X 48 hours = 24:40 hours just like the Missing Day Story. Same numbers and context: a missing 23 hours 20 minutes and the missing 40 minutes found.
From NASA's web site: "Most scientists draw a clear distinction between things that are taken on faith, and those that are testable and therefore falsifiable. Science deals with the latter, religion with the former." God leaves no evidence so we have to have faith. Nevertheless, lest sincere people should be deceived, this web page gives evidence of faith.
"The validity and predictive power of this equation are well documented and can be seen every day: a recent example was a lunar eclipse that was visible to much of the world last Sunday (March 24, 1997 AD). This calculation would not cover any time before the present."
Even if these calculations have been discovered here for the first time, they have as of now "occurred" and NASA's statement "(2) the Sun would have to start moving about in the solar system in a very specific way so that it appeared to us on our spinning Earth to be standing still. There is no evidence of this occurring either." Yes, is truly what happened and there is much evidence of "this occurring" here on this webpage.
Religion or rather Christianity is not the former. There is faith on earth today. Christ offers hope now and for all eternity.
NASA also states on their web site:
"The major dynamic component of any planets orbital motion is determined by solving an equation (force is equal to the mass times acceleration). The validity and predictive power of this equation are well documented and can be seen every day."
God could easily predict where the planets should be for any date in the future. Thus, all God has to do is put the sun and the other planets back to where they would have been, at the half orbit or full orbit point, with one simple 180° movement, around the earth = earth is untouched, without a trace.
God may move Jupiter and Saturn almost two times around the earth for them to appear at the same part of the sky as they normally would through the year. This also means, that God may move them exactly 180° back at the half orbit and full year point, and earth flow out of the reverse orbit without a trace.
Then also, Jupiter and Saturn are so far away, God may leave them in their orbit - but guide them, and when God moved the sun back, Jupiter and Saturn would be where they would normally be.
God must move the moon to the other side of earth, then we would see the far side during earth's reverse orbit. Then God must move the moon 180° back and we see the same side we always see. Thus, God would not need to rotate the moon, which would be very difficult to do without disturbing the moon dust on the surface.
The real credit goes to Jesus who has guided me in all truth, and to God who gives the victory.
There is lots of work to be done as a Christian for those who do not mind who takes the credit.
The following article was copied from the "Evening Star", a newspaper located in Spencer, Indiana.
Did you know that the space program is busy proving that what has been called myth in the bible is true?
Mr. Harold Hill, President of the Curtis Engine Company in Baltimore, Maryland and a consultant in the space program, relates the following development:
"I think one of the most amazing things that God has for us today happened recently to our astronauts and space scientists at Green Belt, Maryland. They were checking the position of the sun, moon and planets out in space where they would be 100 years and 1,000 years from now. We have to know this so we don't send a satellite up and have it bump into something later on in its orbit. We have to lay out the orbits in terms of the life of the satellite, and where the planets will be so the whole thing will not bog down. They ran the computer measurement back and forth over the centuries and it came to a halt. The computer stopped and put up a red signal, which meant that there was something wrong either with the information fed into it or with the results as compared to the standards.
They called in the service department to check it out and they said, "It's perfect." The head of operations said, "What's wrong?" "Well, we have found there is a day missing in space in elapsed time." They scratched their heads and tore their hair. There was no answer. One religious fellow on the team said, "You know, one time when I was in Sunday School they talked about the sun standing still."
They didn't believe him, but they didn't have any other answer, so they said, "show us." He got a Bible and went back to the Book of Joshua where they found a pretty ridiculous statement for anybody who has "common sense." (Joshua 10: 8-14).
There they found the Lord saying to Joshua, "Fear them not, for I have delivered them into your hand; there shall not a man of them stand before you." Joshua was concerned because he was surrounded by the enemy and if darkness fell, they would overpower them. So Joshua asked the sun to stand still. That's right- - - "The sun stood still and the moon stayed and hastened not to go down about a whole day."
The space men said, "There is the missing day."
They checked the computers going back into the time it was written and found it was close, but not close enough. The elapsed time that was missing back in Joshua's day was 23 hours and 20 minutes - not a whole day. They read the Bible and there it was "about" (approximately a day).
"These little words in the Bible are important. But they were still in trouble because if you cannot account for 40 minutes you'll still be in trouble 1,000 years from now. Forty minutes had to be found because it can be multiplied many times over in orbits.
This religious fellow also remembered somewhere in the Bible where it said the sun went BACKWARDS. The space men told him he was out of his mind. But, they got out the Book and read these words in II Kings. Hezekiah, on his death-bed, was visited by the prophet Isaiah who told him he was not going to die. Hezekiah asked for the sign of proof. Isaiah said, "Do you want the sun to go ahead ten degrees? Hezekiah said, "It's nothing for the sun to go ahead ten degrees, but let the shadow return backward ten degrees."
Isaiah spoke to the Lord and the Lord brought the shadow ten degrees BACKWARD. Ten degrees is exactly 40 minutes. Twenty-three hours and 20 minutes in Joshua, plus 40 minutes in II Kings (II Kings 20:1-11) make the missing 24 hours the space travelers had to log in the logbook as being the missing day in the universe.
Isn't that amazing!!

Harold Hill who wrote the Missing Day Story may have heard of NASA scientists discovering such a reverse orbit. He used Totten's book, published in 1890, instead. These may be the original NASA calculations in the Missing Day Story: If the sun moved 180° east to stand still in the sky for Joshua, that means the sun moved to the other side of the earth, which takes 12 hours, and earth flowed into a reverse orbit.
However, this 12 hours may be the battle of Merom February 4, 1240 BC and one year later on the same date be king Wan's dream February 5, 1239 BC, and earth flowed out of the reverse orbit of the sun. King Wan's dream describes the sun in Virgo in Spring. The sun normally is in Virgo in August/September, 1239 BC. This is a detection of being 180° out, half a year out, not just a day out.
King Wan's dream probably was February 5, 1239 BC. Then the battle of Merom would be one year earlier, February 4, 1240 BC. The sun can move back and forth at each half orbit point.
However, the battle of Merom must be six months after Joshua's long day in August 10, 1241 BC six months later is February 5, 1240 BC. Then king Wan's dream February 5, 1239 BC would be a year later than the battle of Merom, perhaps on the day of another battle.
Some people in the south eastern states with the Hill last name are J1 Jewish ancestry from Abraham.
For the sun to be 180° out, a spring sun in the fall, the truth is blatant. Earth was in a reverse orbit, caused by the sun being moved to the other side of the earth. You will see earth sped up 48 hours a reverse orbit year. At the halfway mark, when the sun may move back as if nothing happened, and when the planets can move exactly 180° back as if nothing happened, and earth flow out of the reverse orbit, half of the 48 hours is about 24 hours. If you look at the details of the missing time of 23:20 hours that equal the sped up first half reverse orbit, then the missing 40 minutes in the sped up second half reverse orbit of 24:40 hours, you will see the Missing Day Story matches this model exactly, and thus is more likely, than not, a true story.
Upon reading the Chinese Classics it was easy for me to soon see God had moved the sun to the other side of earth, and earth had flowed into a reverse orbit of the sun. In 2006 I began to doubt the Missing Day Story. Then said, wait a minute! If the sun moved back at the half orbit point, that half orbit should correspond to 23:20 hours of the 48 hour sped up reverse orbit.
When God wants to hide something, you can be looking right at it and not see it!
Very probably NASA discovered the same missing 23 hours and 20 minutes, the same elapsed 24 hours, elapsed time and missing time. Many people do not believe the Missing Day Story. But most probably the Missing Day Story is true.
Jesus' birth most likely was September 12, 7 BC, when the sun was in Virgo. Jesus was born of a virgin, Mary. Thus, also, on Joshua's long day perhaps August 24, 1241 BC, or August 10, 1241 BC, the sun would appear in Virgo. Jesus would be born in the month sheep are bred in Bethlehem in September. Thus, the significance of Virgo, Jesus born of a virgin. Thus, all these sun miracles point to Jesus.

President John F. Kennedy died six days after being briefed at NASA on the progress of the Saturn V and plans for the VAB, on November 16, 1963.

Lyndon Johnson was Vice President from January 20, 1961 and succeeded Kennedy as President November 22, 1963, and died: January 22, 1973.
January 27, 1967, astronauts Ed White, Gus Grissom, Roger Chaffee, died in a lunar launch rehearsal.
Some astronauts like Buzz Aldrin did work on rocket science. Thus, if those present, if or when NASA's scientists found the missing day, died; there may be no record or memory of the event. Harold Hill did some work on diesel generators for NASA.
Simply overhearing some gossip, he could quickly jump to conclusions. Hearing the right measurements given here, he may have mistakenly connected the 23:20 hours and 24:40 hours of Joshua with Charles Totten and Harry Rimmer.

Matthew 28:12 "And when they were assembled with the elders, and had taken counsel, they gave large money unto the soldiers,
28:13 Saying, Say ye, His disciples came by night, and stole him away while we slept.
28:14 And if this come to the governor's ears, we will persuade him, and secure you.
28:15 So they took the money, and did as they were taught: and this saying is commonly reported among the Jews until this day."
Matthew 28:1 "In the end of the sabbath, as it began to dawn toward the first day of the week, came Mary Magdalene and the other Mary to see the sepulchre."
Genesis 1:5 "And God called the light Day, and the darkness he called Night. And the evening and the morning were the first day."
Thus, the sun must have suddenly rose in the east a few hours after the sun set on Saturday. That is, the sun must have set in the east, then shortly rose in the east.
From the King James Version:
Matthew 28:8 "And they departed quickly from the sepulchre with fear and great joy; and did run to bring his disciples word.
28:9 And as they went to tell his disciples, behold, Jesus met them, saying, All hail. And they came and held him by the feet, and worshipped him."
From the English Standard Version:
Matthew 28:9 "And behold, Jesus met them and said, “Greetings!” And they came up and took hold of his feet and worshiped him."
From the New American Standard Bible:
Matthew 28:9 "And behold, Jesus met them and said, "Rejoice!". And they came up and took hold of His feet and worshiped Him."
Thus, there must be a sun miracle on the resurrection morning, when also Jesus' disciples met Jesus after he rose from the dead. Then also Jesus' disciples saw Jesus long before the soldiers gave their false story.
Psalm 30:5 "For his anger endureth but a moment; in his favour is life: weeping may endure for a night, but joy cometh in the morning."
Acts 26:23 "That Christ should suffer, and that he should be the first that should rise from the dead, and should shew light unto the people, and to the Gentiles."
The phoenix was the angel that moved the sun. The phoenix never dies but is reborn from the ashes of the sun. Thus, the sun rose on Jesus' resurrection morning.
Job 29:18 "Then I said, I shall die in my nest, and I shall multiply my days as the phoenix."
Obadiah 1:4 "Though thou exalt thyself as the eagle, and though thou set thy nest among the stars, thence will I bring thee down, saith the LORD."
Again, the phoenix has its nest in the stars.
Thus, Christians now know the truth about the Missing Day Story. Even if NASA did not find it, the model here stands on its own. Simply, if God moved the sun to the other side of earth, earth's reverse orbit has to be sped up 48 hours or we would have 367 days that year. To counter the missing 48 hours, the sun has to stand still in the sky for a total of 48 hours that year.
The sun should stand still for 24 hours of elapsed time at the half orbit point. The same missing time of 23:20 hours at the half orbit point.
In 1917 it was noticed Mercury's orbit could not be explained without Einstein's Theory of Relativity. Mercury has an elliptical orbit that shifts each Mercury year. In 1917 it was noticed that Newton's laws of gravity from other planets affecting Mercury could not explain this shift of Mercury's orbit.
Perihelion precession for Mercury takes 250,000 years.
Satellites that give us GPS coordinates must have a clock adjusted to Relativity or the locations on earth would be out many hundreds of meters.
"We have to lay out the orbits in terms of the life of the satellite, and where the planets will be so the whole thing will not bog down."
Einstein's theory of Relativity had to be tested. Thus the words "so the whole thing will not bog down". Satellites usually do not go very far from earth. Nevertheless, we have to adjust the clocks of GPS satellites or their GPS readings will be many hundreds of meters out. And some satellites are sent far out into the solar system.
Gravity Probe B satellite was sent up in 2004 to test Einstein's theory of relativity. From the Missing Day Story: "We have to lay out the orbits in terms of the life of the satellite, and where the planets will be so the whole thing will not bog down."
"Total cost of the Gravity Probe B satellite project was about $750 million".
Largest ever dark matter map suggests Einstein theory may have been wrong.
Thus the reason "We have to lay out the orbits".
Scientists validate Einstein's theory of relativity on a galactic level. June 25, 2018.
- They called in the service department to check it out and they said, "It's perfect." The head of operations said, "What's wrong?" "Well, we have found there is a day missing in space in elapsed time." They scratched their heads and tore their hair. There was no answer. One religious fellow on the team said, "You know, one time when I was in Sunday School.."
The service department may say "It's perfect" because earth in a reverse orbit was guided perfectly as if it was in a normal orbit.
"They were checking the position of the sun, moon and planets out in space where they would be 100 years and 1,000 years from now." All these dates of changes of Chinese emperors and dates of sun miracles ending in years X68 BC and X07 BC in even 100 years point to Jesus' birth and death.
On February 5, 1239 BC Jupiter would be visible in the west above the setting sun. Jupiter would not be visible behind the sun February 16, 1240 BC. Thus, king Wan's dream again more likely was February 5, 1239 BC.
"They ran the computer measurement back and forth over the centuries and it came to a halt. The computer stopped and put up a red signal, which meant that there was something wrong either with the information fed into it or with the results as compared to the standards."
They called in the service department to check it out and they said, "It's perfect." The head of operations said, "What's wrong?" "Well, we have found there is a day missing in space."
See "The Harmony of Science and Scripture" by Harry Rimmer, Modern Science and the Long Day of Joshua:
The date given, July 22, 1475 BC was a Tuesday, the last quarter of the lunar month. Reckoning back the day Wednesday the day of battle. Thus, a missing day. These dates are accurate on any planetarium software, but were only a calculated guess. The real Joshua's Long Day, backed up by many records and chronology, was in the summer of 1241 BC, probably August 10, 1241 BC.
The right year of Joshua's conquest was 1241 BC. Using the same method as the above estimation, the last quarter moon = the moon over the Ajalon Valley when the sun was above Gibeon at noon, July 22, 1475 BC is this same August 10, 1241 BC.
Joshua's long day may have been on the last quarter moon, but in 1241 BC not 1475 BC, not July 22 but August 10; = the moon in the west over the valley of Ajalon when the sun was standing still at noon above Gibeon, and be Saturday, August 10, 1241 BC.
Joshua chose the 21st day of the seventh month. Joshua probably knew there are 186.6 days from the spring equinox to the fall equinox.
Joshua probably knew about past sun miracles from Egypt. Then Joshua would know there be sun miracles every six months, even to the day expected, and know on this, Saturday, August 10, 1241 BC was half an orbit after Joshua and Israel crossed the river Jordan, possibly on a long day - a sun miracle, Sunday, February 4, 1241 BC.
Joshua was already prepared to ask God to make the sun stand still = their shade is taken away, at the first attempt to conquer the promised land in 1280 BC.
Then Joshua may be very familiar with sun miracles.
The sun be at noon and the moon on the western horizon above the Ajalon valley and the Mediterranean Sea, when Joshua made his request. Thus, they would see the moon pass westward all day long. Thus, the picture of the moon in the west and the sun at noon.
"There is a book by Prof. C. A. Totten of Yale, written in 1890, which establishes the case beyond the shadow of doubt. The condensed account of his book, briefly summarized, is as follows:
Professor Totten wrote of a fellow-professor, an accomplished astronomer, who made the strange discovery that the earth was twenty-four hours out of schedule! That is to say, there had been twenty-four hours lost out of time. In discussing this point with his fellow professors, Professor Totten challenged this man to investigate the question of the inspiration of the Bible. He said, "You do not believe the Bible to be the Word of God, and I do. Now here is a fine opportunity to prove whether or not the Bible is inspired. You begin to read at the very beginning and read as far as need be, and see if the Bible can account for your missing time."
The astronomer accepted the challenge and began to read. Some time later, when the two men chanced to meet on campus, Professor Totten asked his friend if he had proved the question to his satisfaction. His colleague replied, "I believe I have definitely proved that the Bible is not the Word of God. In the tenth chapter of Joshua, I found the missing twenty-four hours accounted for. Then I went back and checked up on my figures, and found that at the time of Joshua there were only twenty-three hours and twenty minutes lost. If the Bible made a mistake of forty minutes, it is not the Book of God!"
Professor Totten said, "You are right, in part at least. But does the Bible say that a whole day was lost at the time of Joshua?" So they looked and saw that the text said, "about the space of a whole day."
The word "about" changed the whole situation, and the astronomer took up his reading again. He read on until he came to the twenty-eighth chapter of the prophet Isaiah. In this chapter, Isaiah has left us the thrilling story of the king, Hezekiah, who was sick unto death. In response to his prayer, God promised to add fifteen more years to his life. To confirm the truth of His promise, God offered a sign.
He said, "Go out in the court and look at the sundial of Ahaz. I will make the shadow on the sundial back up ten degrees!" Isaiah recounts that the king looked, and while he looked, the shadow turned backward ten degrees, by which degrees it had already gone down! This settles the case, for ten degrees on the sundial is forty minutes on the face of the clock! So the accuracy of the Bible was established to the satisfaction of this exacting critic."
The Harmony of Science and Scripture" by Harry Rimmer, Modern Science and the Long Day of Joshua
The Missing Day Story uses the same 23 hours and 20 minutes as Rimmer and Totten. However, the elapsed time and the missing time lead me to suspect a grain of truth. Sure, Joshua's long day would be described as 24 hours of elapsed time. But to know there would be missing time, such as from a sped up reverse orbit to counter the elapsed time, would require one to uncover this basic model presented here.
The twenty-eighth chapter of Isaiah should be the thirty-eighth chapter of Isaiah.
Nevertheless, the reference to Gibeon is a reference to Joshua's long day, and to David's battle at Perazim and Gibeon.
2 Samuel 5:20 "And David came to Baalperazim, and David smote them there, and said, The LORD hath broken forth upon mine enemies before me, as the breach of waters. Therefore he called the name of that place Baalperazim."
Isaiah 28:21 "For the LORD shall rise up as in mount Perazim, he shall be wroth as in the valley of Gibeon, that he may do his work, his strange work; and bring to pass his act, his strange act."
Isaiah 38:8 "Behold, I will bring again the shadow of the degrees, which is gone down in the sun dial of Ahaz, ten degrees backward. So the sun returned ten degrees, by which degrees it was gone down."
The ten degrees of Hezekiah is a King James misprint. This is not 40 minutes back into another time zone, not 40 minutes east into the 60 minutes of a time zone. In no way did the sun only back up 10 degrees of a 360 degree circle. The Hebrew states the shadow retreated ten steps of the sundial to the eastern horizon, either 90° or 180°. Ten steps probably means ten hours. The sundial at Jerusalem would only make a shadow an hour after sun rise and an hour before sunset. Thus, 10 steps is ten hours = the whole sky.
Hezekiah Bulla Found The King's seal, a sun with wings. The rays may be lines on Ahaz's sun dial.
Then the ten steps of Hezekiah connected to Joshua's long day in the Missing Day Story are accurate. Both because the day of Joshua's long day the sun must rise in the west and set in the east = the shadow retreat ten steps= the whole sky, and because, Joshua's long day must be short 40 minutes = ten degrees, that is regained when the sun moved back 190°, that is ten degrees more than 180° not six months later = the next chapter of Joshua 11 = the battle of Merom = but one and a half orbits later, February 5, 1239 BC the sun move back and earth flow out of the reverse orbit of the sun.
Nevertheless, Joshua's long day may have been a normal day. (1) Joshua may have picked the right day half an orbit after the crossing of the river Jordan. (2) Or the day Joshua chose to ask God to make the sun stand still in the sky may have been the first sun miracle when the sun was moved to the other side of the earth in 12 hours and one and a half years later God moved the sun back on king Wan's dream.
Even king Wan's dream one and a half orbits after Joshua's long day may have been this extra 10° = this same 40 missing minutes.
Isaiah 38:8 "Behold, I will bring again the shadow of the degrees, which is gone down in the sun dial of Ahaz, ten degrees backward. So the sun returned ten degrees, by which degrees it was gone down."
John 1:39 "He saith unto them, Come and see. They came and saw where he dwelt, and abode with him that day: for it was about the tenth hour."
There may be 12 hours on a sundial of 180°.
John 11:9 "Jesus answered, Are there not twelve hours in the day? If any man walk in the day, he stumbleth not, because he seeth the light of this world."
Psalm 125:2 "As the mountains are round about Jerusalem, so the LORD is round about his people from henceforth even for ever."
The hills around Jerusalem mean a sundial at the temple would only show a shadow after the first hour of sun rise at the horizon in the east. Likewise the sundial would not show a shadow an hour before the sun set on the horizon in the west. Thus, ten steps on the upper sundial of Ahaz should be ten hours.
Totten wrote: "Now here is a fine opportunity to prove whether or not the Bible is inspired"
John 7:23 "If a man on the sabbath day receive circumcision, that the law of Moses should not be broken; are ye angry at me, because I have made a man every whit whole on the sabbath day?"
John 10:35 "If he called them gods, unto whom the word of God came, and the scripture cannot be broken;"
Psalm 82:5 "They know not, neither will they understand; they walk on in darkness: all the foundations of the earth are out of course.
82:6 I have said, Ye are gods; and all of you are children of the most High.
82:7 But ye shall die like men, and fall like one of the princes."
"all the foundations of the earth are out of course" may refer to earth in a reverse orbit.
Rimmer's reference to Isaiah 28 instead of Isaiah 38 may not be a misprint:
Isaiah 28:21 "For the LORD shall rise up as in mount Perazim, he shall be wroth as in the valley of Gibeon, that he may do his work, his strange work; and bring to pass his act, his strange act."
Isaiah 28:21 "For the LORD will arise as on the hill of Perazim, He will rouse Himself as in the vale of Gibeon, To do his work - Strange is his work! And to perform His task - Astounding is his task!"
"wroth" means to quake shake or tremble. Thus, when God moved the sun the earth would quake.
Isaiah 38:8 "Behold, I will bring again the shadow of the degrees, which is gone down in the sun dial of Ahaz, ten degrees backward. So the sun returned ten degrees, by which degrees it was gone down."
Isaiah twenty-eight refers to Joshua's long day and a sun miracle of David when David became King. Isaiah thirty-eight refers to Hezekiah's sign. Thus, there may be parallels with Joshua's long day and Hezekiah's sign in the writings of Isaiah. Thus, it is not unreasonable to complete Joshua's long day with the writings of Isaiah.
Joshua 9:27 "And Joshua made them that day hewers of wood and drawers of water for the congregation, and for the altar of the LORD, even unto this day, in the place which he should choose."
The altar was to be at Gibeon.
2 Samuel 5:20 "And David came to Baalperazim, and David smote them there, and said, The LORD hath broken forth upon mine enemies before me, as the breach of waters. Therefore he called the name of that place Baalperazim."
2 Samuel 6:6 "And when they came to Nachon's threshingfloor, Uzzah put forth his hand to the ark of God, and took hold of it; for the oxen shook it.
6:7 And the anger of the LORD was kindled against Uzzah; and God smote him there for his error; and there he died by the ark of God.
6:8 And David was displeased, because the LORD had made a breach upon Uzzah: and he called the name of the place Perezuzzah to this day."
1 Chronicles 15:2 "Then David said, None ought to carry the ark of God but the Levites: for them hath the LORD chosen to carry the ark of God, and to minister unto him for ever."
Deuteronomy 31:9 "And Moses wrote this law, and delivered it unto the priests the sons of Levi, which bare the ark of the covenant of the LORD, and unto all the elders of Israel."
The ark was meant to be carried by two priests, two and two.
1 Kings 8:1 "Then Solomon assembled the elders of Israel, and all the heads of the tribes, the chief of the fathers of the children of Israel, unto king Solomon in Jerusalem, that they might bring up the ark of the covenant of the LORD out of the city of David, which is Zion.
8:2 And all the men of Israel assembled themselves unto king Solomon at the feast in the month Ethanim, which is the seventh month.
8:3 And all the elders of Israel came, and the priests took up the ark.
8:4 And they brought up the ark of the LORD, and the tabernacle of the congregation, and all the holy vessels that were in the tabernacle, even those did the priests and the Levites bring up."
Luke 10:1 "After these things the Lord appointed other seventy also, and sent them two and two before his face into every city and place, whither he himself would come."
Perez means breach. Baalperazim = sun breaches, the two times David fought against the Philistines there that year. The ark may have been brought from Gibeon, the same place as Joshua's long day = Joshua 10:12b "Sun stand thou upon Gibeon".
1 Kings 3:4 "And the king went to Gibeon to sacrifice there; for that was the great high place: a thousand burnt offerings did Solomon offer upon that altar"
1 Kings 9:2 "That the LORD appeared to Solomon the second time, as he had appeared unto him at Gibeon."
1 Chronicles 21:29 "For the tabernacle of the LORD, which Moses made in the wilderness, and the altar of the burnt offering, were at that season in the high place at Gibeon."
"as in the valley of Gibeon"
If NASA used the data used here, they would get the same missing 23 hours and 20 minutes. Thus, even though the 40 minutes accrued to Isaiah are in error, there are still 40 minutes missing at Joshua's long day that are not regained till king Wan's dream half an orbit later February 16, 1240 BC or one and a half orbits later February 5, 1239 BC.
All depending on king Wan's dream February 16, 1240 BC or February 5, 1239 BC = and again on king Wan's 35th year, or 35 years to, the lunar eclipse, on day 13 of cycle 60, September 24, 1205 BC = his first year six day moon in the first month of spring in February 16, 1240 BC or February 5, 1239 BC.
At a local astronomy presentation for ocrasc.ca in Kelowna by Richard Federley, who was a candidate to become a Canadian astronaut, Richard stated astronauts are selected out of thousands of applicants, based partly on their ability to solve problems quickly. He said the astronauts and space scientists can solve any problem easily. They can communicate well. So, they can tackle any problem together. They have to be. The demands of an astronaut are tremendous.
Thus, the same 23 hours and 20 minutes, 24 hours and 40 minutes, thus the missing ten degrees = this same 40 minutes. The sun stand still for 12 hours at noon Israel = 180°, then the sun retreat 10° to the east = from the 12 PM position to the 11:20 AM position in Israel, (and rise 10° from the western horizon in China on king Wan) = the missing 40 minutes!
So, if I can solve this same missing day over a period of many years, the spacemen at NASA could do the same in a very short time.
The NASA astronauts and spacemen would need to see a record pointing to a reverse zodiac, reverse orbit. Shortly they would realize a half reverse orbit must be sped up 24 hours. Then they would realize they were missing this same 24 hours.
A whole year of a reverse orbit must have 48 hours of missing time to still have 365 days in a year because rotation was against orbit. From the spring equinox to the fall equinox are 187 days, from the fall equinox to the spring equinox are 178 days. The sped up spring/summer orbit = 23 hours and 20 minutes! Then they would see they were still missing 40 minutes.
Then they would see the missing ten degrees, 40 minutes, when the sun returned one year later, in the second half reverse orbit when the sun returned in king Wan's dream.
"The computer stopped and put up a red signal, which meant that there was something wrong either with the information fed into it or with the results as compared to the standards."
According to king Wan's dream: If straight up at sunset is Fang/Scorpius, then the sun is in Virgo. If this is the first month of spring, this cannot be! If the prevailing notion is that spring is in the east, like a clock, when earth normally orbits the sun counterclockwise = spring in the west, this again cannot be! Either record entered into a computer cannot work.
Picture a clock, the third hour is like the third month March. But earth orbits the sun counterclockwise. So the third month is the opposite side = the west.
If the sun was moved to the other side of earth in March, earth would flow into a reverse orbit of the sun. Spring would be to the east of "the clock". Normally spring is in the west. The day progresses from sunrise in the east to sunset in the west. But the zodiac progresses from the west to the east because earth orbits the sun counterclockwise. So for the zodiac to progress like the day, the sun must be moved to the other side of the earth and earth flow into a reverse orbit of the sun.
They called in the service department to check it out and they said, "It's perfect." The head of operations said, "What's wrong?" "Well, we have found there is a day missing in space in elapsed time." They scratched their heads and tore their hair. There was no answer. One religious fellow on the team said, "You know, one time when I was in Sunday School they talked about the sun standing still."
If only a few words of gossip from NASA were overheard by Harold Hill, they may have been repeated from the discovery of the reverse orbit and king Wan's dream in the Chinese Classics. The reverse orbit in the Chinese Classics would have to be thoroughly investigated till all the details were accounted for. An example complete reverse orbit of Joshua's long day and king Wan's dream the same year would complete the details of a one year reverse orbit.
King Wan's dream one and a half years, one and a half orbits after Joshua's long day, would also complete the details of a two or three year reverse orbit. And thus satisfy the concerns of the space mission.
Paul in Hebrews stated Joshua did not give Israel rest on the Sabbath day.
Hebrews 4:4 "For he spake in a certain place of the seventh day on this wise, And God did rest the seventh day from all his works."
Hebrews 4:8 "For if Jesus had given them rest, then would he not afterward have spoken of another day.
4:9 There remaineth therefore a rest to the people of God."
That is, "if Joshua had given them complete rest,"
Jesus is a misprint. This verse is speaking about Joshua who wrote the book of Joshua. The day Paul is speaking about was a Sabbath = Saturday when Israel should have rest but was in battle, and Joshua asked God to make the sun stand still = even less rest to battle for 24 more hours than a normal 12 hour day, Saturday, August 10, 1241 BC.
Acts 7:45 "Which also our fathers that came after brought in with Jesus into the possession of the Gentiles, whom God drave out before the face of our fathers, unto the days of David;"
Again, Jesus is a misprint. This was Joshua who brought the children of Israel into the promised land.
The day of rest was Saturday.
A long day at the crossing of the river Jordan, on the 10th day of the first month, Sunday, February 4, 1241 BC is 188 days to Joshua's long day, the Sabbath, Saturday, August 10, 1241 BC, on the 21st day of the seventh month. 188/365 X 48 hours = 24 hours and 40 minutes.
Nevertheless, a sun miracle at the crossing of the Jordan, Sunday, February 4, 1241 BC, Joshua's long day half an orbit later, Saturday, August 10, 1241 BC. And the sun return Februrary 5, 1239 BC.
Only this spring to fall reverse orbit was the slow half year reverse orbit and would be 23 hours and 20 minutes. Thus, the spacemen would get to Joshua's long day and still be missing 40 minutes. The second half orbit to February 4, 1240 BC, and one and a half orbits later, to February 5, 1239 BC: 178/365 X 48 hours = 23 hours and 20 minutes. The second half reverse orbit is the faster half. The missing time, sped up half reverse orbit, would be 24 hours and 40 minutes.
Joshua's long day on the Sabbath, Saturday, August 10, 1241 was the major battle.
Gideon's battle may have started at the middle watch at night, Saturday February 3, 1241 BC = the dawning of the day the children of Israel crossed the river Jordan, Sunday, February 4, 1241 BC.
NASA cannot even answer the record of king Wan's dream one and a half years after Joshua's long day, on February 5, 1239 BC, when the sun moved back and earth flowed out of the reverse orbit.
I emailed NASA the following question, July 29, 2014:
"King Wan dreamt that he was clothed with the sun and the moon. A phoenix duck sang on mount K'e. In the first month of spring, on the 6th day, the five planets had a conjunction in Fang. Afterwards a male and female phoenix went about Wan's capitol with a writing in their beaks, which said: 'The emperor of Yin has no principle, but oppresses and disorders the empire. The great decree is removed: Yin cannot enjoy it longer. The powerful spirits of earth have left it; all the spirits are whistled away.'"
The Annals of the Bamboo Books, Part V the Dynasty of Chow p.143, The Chinese Classics.
The male phoenix is the sun phoenix the yang. The female phoenix is the moon phoenix the yin.
The sun in Spring/February is in Pisces, the western sky at sunset is in Taurus not Scorpius/Fang. Did God move the sun to the other side of earth? http://sunnyokanagan.com/joshua/long.html

Hi, and thanks for your question.
I'm afraid while you selected "Relativity" as a category on our web page, this question is a closer fit to the category "Night Sky".
Nevertheless, since we're not familiar with the text you refer to --- and since it appears that the astronomical statement is part of a dream rather than an actual documented observation --- we can't give you a useful answer.
Bernard & Ira
for Ask an Astrophysicist
The first quarter moon, the six day moon, is straight above at sunset. If Fang/Scorpius is straight above at sunset - in spring! the sun is in Virgo at sunset!
The sun has to be in Pisces in spring - 180° away from Virgo!
February 5, 1239 BC was the six day moon in China and the first of the 35th year of king Wan it the lunar eclipse September 24, 1205 BC. Thus, Joshua's long day most likely would be Saturday August 10, 1241 BC. Thus king Wan's dream and Joshua's long day are connected and these be the real dates in NASA's Missing Day Story.
All NASA would need was the date of king Wan's dream, February 5, 1239 BC and the year of Joshua's long day 1241 BC. The assumption the death of Seti I in 1281 BC at the Exodus, or the right calculations here the death of Merneptah in 1281 BC, 40 years in the wilderness to Joshua's long day in 1241 BC. Sun miracles at the half orbit points and NASA could figure out Joshua's long day.
This is the real thing. I cannot get a reasonable answer from NASA. At least I can please God!
God moving the sun is high energy = Relativity. Further if God moved the sun around the earth near the speed of light, 670,616,629 miles per hour, to make the sun dark when Jesus was on the cross, this is relativity!
One circle around the earth would be 580,000,000 miles compared to the speed of light, 670,616,629 miles per hour. The difference, the sun completing 360° five minutes sooner, equals the sun's shadow at noon when Jesus was on the cross, the sun revolve around the earth at the speed of light, then the sun appear again at the 3 PM shadow on the sundial, 5 minutes of 60 equals two hours of 24, plus the current hour = 3 PM, darkness from the sixth hour was darkness to the ninth hour = 3 PM.
Luke 23:44 "And it was about the sixth hour, and there was a darkness over all the earth until the ninth hour.
23:45 And the sun was darkened, and the veil of the temple was rent in the midst."
The sixth hour of the day was noon. The ninth hour of the day was 3 PM.
Moreover, God must move the sun 99.999% of the speed of light = very near the speed of light, to make the sun totally dark.
At 99.999% of the speed of light only 15 seconds would pass moving the sun 360° around the earth for one hour. The sun would be dimmed 1/224 = dividing by 224. Approaching the speed of light the sun would be dark.
The sun is about magnitude 25. Every 5 magnitudes is 100%. Divide 25 by 5 is dividing by 500. Then to move the sun at 99.9999% of the speed of light. Then the sun would appear about as bright as the star Arcturus, only redder, the brightest star in the northern hemisphere.
Because of dilation, the sun at the brightness of the star Arcturus would also appear the size of Arcturus, only dilation in the direction of travel would mean the sun would appear like a red line. The noon day sun setting suddenly in the west at the speed of light would take about 16 minutes = 16 minutes to set, and passing over China in 360° to set in the west on China one hour later = the 3 PM position on Israel, when the sun would appear as bright as normal.
Here you can see the sun would appear as a red line, perhaps matching the Chinese record "with red lines on its back,"
By Prokaryotic Caspase Homolog - Own work, CC BY-SA 4.0, https://commons.wikimedia.org/w/index.php?curid=73559502 - does not mean he endorses this page.
Here you see a Hubble Space Telescope image towards the beginning of the universe. You can see the lens affect from a background galaxy, like the letter C or the letter O. This is different than dilation above, yet it demonstrates extreme relativity.
Thus you can see what the sun would look like if moved very fast around the earth = red. Thus, you can see what the sun would look like if earth was moved very fast around the sun = blue.
NASA, Sean Scully, emailed me in 1996 if earth was moved very fast around the earth to make the sun stand still in the sky we would see something very different. Perhaps we would see a blue sun.
"On the last day of the twelfth month (11 February 141 BC) it thundered. The sun appeared purple. Five planets moved in retrograde and guarded the constellation T'ai-wei. The moon passed through the center of the constellation T'ien-t'ing."
The Grand Scribes Records, Volume II, p.213.
"Einstein was right. Flying clocks around the world in opposite directions proved it."
The sun appearing purple may also appear blue. The sun would appear blue if the earth were moved around the sun at 20 million miles per hour with earth's rotation to make the sun stand still in the sky.
Also, there is a difference moving the sun east or west around the earth. Moving the sun east God may need to dim the sun. Moving the sun west God may need to brighten the sun.
"On the last day of the twelfth month (11 February 141 BC) it thundered. The sun appeared purple. Five planets moved in retrograde and guarded the constellation T'ai-wei. The moon passed through the center of the constellation T'ien-t'ing."
The Grand Scribes Records, Volume II, p.213.
As the earth passes the planets they appear to move back about 10°, and is taken to explain "planets moved in retrograde".
With the earth in a reverse orbit of the sun the orbits of the five planets would appear in reverse too. Either the outer planets, Mars, Jupiter and Saturn were moved two times around the earth yearly to appear above as normal in their seasons, or like Jupiter in 103 BC, were left in place, only Jupiter falling back one zodiacal sign a year as earth orbited the sun in reverse.
The planets move in retrograde all the time.
For the scribe to bother to record that "Five planets moved in retrograde" must mean God moved the sun to the other side of earth, and earth flowed into a reverse orbit of the sun. With earth in revese, everything else would appear in reverse too.
For it to be stated: "Five planets moved in retrograde" must refer to earth in a reverse orbit, whether the planets were moved or not.
If the last day of the 12th month was December 13, 142 BC, then two and a half an orbits later, 2 X 365 + 180 days later, is Sunday, June 11, 139 BC when the sun came out at night, is when the sun may move back and earth flow out of the reverse orbit of the sun.
One and a half years later was the 18th day of the seventh month, August 15, 140 BC, the 172d Seleucid year from 312 BC. "The Jews and the priests have resolved that Simon should be their leader and high priest forever, until a trust worthy prophet arise"
1 Maccabees 14:27-45, NRSV
164 BC was a 49 year jubile. 140 BC was a seven year fallow year, 14 years later.
The 18th of Elul, the sixth lunar month, may be like the 17th day of the seventh month September 12, 7 BC when Jesus may have been born.
I asked NASA in about January of 1996 if earth was moved around the sun would the sun stand still in the sky? The answer by Sean Scully was earth would have seen something very different but did not say what would be different.
If God moved the earth around the sun in 24 hours, one side would face the sun for 24 hours = the sun standing still in the sky for 24 hours and earth's rotation unaffected.
God could speed up earth's orbit instantly to 20 million miles per hour from its orbit of 60,000 miles per hour in the same direction of orbit, then 24 hours later, 360° later, slow earth's orbit instantly to 60,000 miles per hour again, and the sun would stand at the noon position for 24 hours.
However, God moving the sun with earth's rotation would not affect the earth. Moving the earth instantly at 20 million miles per hour would affect the earth.
Likewise, stopping earth's rotation would endanger a fragile earth.
The sun is one million times bigger than the earth. So, asteroid impacts to the sun moving at 20 million miles per hour would easily be absorbed by the sun. Even God moving the sun near the speed of light around the earth, the sun could absorb small asteroid impacts.
Moving the earth at 20 million miles per hour to keep the sun at the noon position for 24 hours, the earth would collide with asteriods at 20 million miles per hour too. Earthquakes would likely be very severe. The risk to life on earth would be very great. The immediate acceleration may also be felt.
An object as small as a needle or a large grain of sand traveling near the speed of light would hit the earth with the magnitude of two times the force of the nuclear bomb of Nagasaki Japan.
The sun being moved at the speed of light would hit the grains of asteroids with a big impact. Yet the sun is one million times larger than the earth, and impacts may have been absorbed, or God moved everything out of the way of the sun.
Moving the sun would hardly affect the earth at all. Only there would be small earthquakes that were hardly more severe than normal. And small earthquakes at times of sun movements were recorded.
Thus, "earth would see something very different." And thus, there are only two possibilities, earth stopped rotating for 24 hours or God moved the sun around the earth 360° for 24 hours.
Thus NASA said there are only two possibilities, stopping earth's rotation or moving the sun in a specific way = only one possibility - moving the sun around the earth in a very specific way so as the sun would appear to stand still in the sky as seen from a spinning earth.
This is not stopping earth's orbit and reversing earth's orbit. Move the sun to the other side of earth, and earth will flow into a reverse orbit of the sun.
The many times earth was recorded in a reverse zodiak appear to mean the sun was moved to the other side of the earth and earth flowed into a reverse orbit of the sun. This means God must have moved the sun, and half an orbit later, and one year later, moved the sun back again.
With earth's rotation opposite the direction of its orbit in the reverse orbit, earth would tend to draw nearer to the sun each year. Earth's reverse orbit must be controled exactly as it would orbit normally.
Neverthless, earth may not have been moved at all. Yes, earth's reverse orbit must be guided, but earth not be moved. Every sun miracle may simply involve God moving the sun to the other side of the earth, and earth flowing into, and the sun back and earth flowing out of the reverse orbit of the sun. God may have moved the sun 360° around the earth at any time - only there should be sped up time in a reverse orbit to counter the elapsed time.
"In his 70th year, in spring, the first month, he caused the chief of the four mountains to convey to Shun of Yu his charge to succeed to the throne.
Note: when the emperor had been on the throne for 70 years, a brilliant star issued from the constellation Yih, and phoenixes appeared in the courtyards of the palace; the pearl grass grew..the sun and moon appeared like a pair of gems, and the five planets looked like threaded pearls..when the flooded waters were assuaged, the emperor, attributing the merit of that to Shun, wished to resign in his favour..Among the islets of the Ho, there were five old men walking about, who were the spirits of the five planets. They said to one another, 'The river scheme will come and tell the emperor of the time. He who knows us is the doubled pupil yellow Yaou.'
The five old men on this flew away like flowing stars and ascended in the constellation Maou (Taurus). On the 2d month, in the sin-chow day, between the dark and the light, the ceremonies were all prepared; and when the day began to decline, a gorgeous light came forth from the Ho, and 'beautiful vapours filled all the horizon; white clouds rose up, and returning winds blew all about. Then a dragon horse appeared, bearing in his mouth a scaly cuirass, with red lines on a green ground, ascended the altar, laid down the scheme and went away. The cuirass was like a tortoise shell, nine cubits broad. The scheme contained a tally of white gem, in a casket of a red gem, covered with yellow gold, and bound with a green string. On the tally were the words, 'With pleased countenance given to the emperor Shun.'
It said also that Yu and Hea should receive the appointment of Heaven... Two years afterwards, in the 2d month, he led out all his ministers, and dropped a peih in the Lo. The ceremony over, he retired, and waited for the decline of the day, Then a red light appeared; a tortoise rose from the waters, with writing with red lines on its back, and rested on the altar. The writing said that he should resign the throne to Shun, which accordingly the emperor did."
The Chinese Classics
The five old men were the five planets. They flowed away because when God moved the sun He had to move the planets also.
"In his 14th year auspicious clouds appeared; and he ordered Yu to consult about affairs for him."
Note: "In the 14th year of Shun's reign, 2207 BC, at a grand performance with bells, musical stones, organs and flutes, before the service was concluded, there came a great strorm of thunder and rain. A violent wind overthrew houses, and tore up trees. The drumsticks and drums were scattered on the ground, and the bells and stones cast about confusedly. The dancers fell prostrate and the director of the music ran madly away; but Shun keeping hold of the frames from which the bells and stones were suspended, laughed and said, 'How clear it is that the empire is not one man's empire! It is signified by these bells, stones, organs, and flutes.'
On this he presented Yu to Heaven, and made him perform actions proper to the emperor; whereupon harmonious vapours responded on all sides, and felicitous clouds were seen. They were like smoke, and yet not smoke; like clouds and yet not clouds; brilliantly confused; twisting and whirling. The officers in mutual harmony sang of those felicitous clouds, the emperor thus leading them on: - How bright are ye, felicitous clouds! In what order are ye gathered together!
The brightness of the sun and moon is repeated from morn to morn. All the ministers then advanced, and bowing low, said: - 'Brilliant are the heavens above. Whereupon the shining stars are arranged. The brightness of the sun and moon enlarge our one man.' The emperor sang again 'The sun and moon are constant; the stars and the other heavenly bodies have their motions. The four seasons observe their rule.
The people are sincere in all their services. When I think of music, The intelligences that respond to Heaven Seem to be transferred to the sages and worthies. All things listen to it. How do its rolling sounds thrill! How does it inspire the dance!'
When the essential brightness was exhausted, the clouds shriveled up and disappeared. Thereupon the eight winds all blew genially, and other felicitious clouds collected in masses. The crouching dragons came hurridly out of their dens; iguanadons and fishes leaped up from their deeps. Tortoises and turtles came out from their holes, removing from Yu to serve Hea. Shun then raised an altar to the Ho, as Yaou had done before.
When the day declined there came a fine and glorious light; and a yellow dragon issued and came to the altar, bearing a scheme on its back, 32 cubits long and 9 cubits broad, in lines of red and green intermingled. The words of which were that he should resign in favour of Yu."
The Chinese Classics. p.116.
The word Peih occurs lots in Chinese history.
"dropped a peih in Lo" The character for peih is in the middle:
Here you can see several peihs, between 14 inches and six inches across:
Here you can see a small jade peih. The King of China would covet the largest jade peih, about six inches across.
"T'ang came east to Lo, to see the altar of Yaou. He dropped a gem in the water, and stood at some distance. Lo! yellow fishes leaped up in pairs; a black bird followed him, and stood on the altar, where it changed into a black gem. There was also a black tortoise, with red lines forming characters, which said that Kee of Hea was unprincipled, and that T'ang should supersede him...When T'ang was about to put Kee away, in reverence of the command of Heaven, he dreamed he went to the sky, and licked it. After this he became possessor of the empire. The people of Shang afterwards changed the title of the dynasty into Yin."
The Chinese Classics, Part IV, The Dynasty of Shang.
The character Peih is common in the Chinese Classics, and may indicate a sun miracle:
"In his 14th year (from 965 BC = 951 BC or from 961 BC = 947 BC = the first year of king Ahab),..in autumn, in the 9th month, the people of Teih invaded Peih..In his 15th year, in the spring, in the first month the chief of Lew-keun came to make his submission. The king made the tower of Chung-peih."
The Chinese Classics, p.150.
Anything that will travel at the speed of light will lose its existance = it will be converted to light.
The sun being moved at the speed of light would appear dark with a red vertical line, the light of the sun being dilated.
The black bird, the black gem and the black cuirass may describe the sun being moved at the speed of light = time stopped and the sun is black.
A cuirass is an armour, like a tortoise shell. Thus, the scally cuirass may describe the sun dilated to a red line or red lines.
"a scaly cuirass, with red lines on a green ground" The sun may appear as if covered in sackcloth. The red lines may be the dilated sun at very near the speed of light, already the red end of the spectrum of light.
The "red gem" may describe the sun becoming red and oval in its dilation near the speed of light. Isaiah 54:12 "I will make thy suns rubies"
The "black gem" may describe the sun becoming black as it reaches the speed of light.
"He dropped a gem in the water" describes dropping a jade disc, a peih, in the water. The universal symbol of the sun is a disc with a hole in the middle.
An impact from an object as large as the great pyramid travelling 99.9% the speed of light would destroy life on the earth. Moving the sun at 99.9% of the speed of light into asteroids is similar. The sun is one million times larger than the earth, and anything large could easily be moved out of the way of the sun.
Thus, the sun would have to be moved at 99.999% of the speed of light to be darkened 1/224. For the sun to appear as bright as, or as dim as, the star Arcturus, the sun would have to be moved at 99.9999% of the speed of light.
Further infinite energy is required. This is possible because this is exactly God's power. God created the universe, he can move the sun near the speed of light.
Isaiah 66:1 "Thus saith the LORD, The heaven is my throne, and the earth is my footstool: where is the house that ye build unto me? and where is the place of my rest?"
"If an object tries to travel 186,000 miles per second, its mass becomes infinite, and so does the energy required to move it. For this reason, no normal object can travel as fast or faster than the speed of light"
Google speed of light, people also ask is there anything faster than the speed of light?
Also in this record of king Wan; the phoenixes moved the sun and moon! The planets were moved out of the way of the sun, to Scorpius!
No light from the sun, no gravity from the sun. This means eight minutes after the sun moved around the earth at the speed of light, earth would continue in a straight line, and not in an orbit of the sun. Likewise, when light stopped arriving at the other planets, they too would continue in a straigth line and not in orbit, and also in all directions. As God guided earth in a reverse orbit of the sun, God would have to guide the other planets as well.
No gravity from the sun, yet the moon can stay and leave the same gravity tide.
King Wan was clothed in night clothes of the sun and moon! There was a decree for a new dynasty because of the omen!
Thus, the sun darkened = Matthew 27:45, the sun dimmed = Joshua 10:12, and the sun brightened = Isaiah 30:26.
Isaiah 8:22 "And they shall look unto the earth; and behold trouble and darkness, dimness of anguish; and they shall be driven to darkness."
Joshua 11:6 "And the LORD said unto Joshua, Be not afraid because of them: for to morrow about this time will I deliver them up all slain before Israel: thou shalt hough their horses, and burn their chariots with fire.
11:7 So Joshua came, and all the people of war with him, against them by the waters of Merom suddenly; and they fell upon them.
11:8 And the LORD delivered them into the hand of Israel, who smote them, and chased them unto great Zidon, and unto Misrephothmaim, and unto the valley of Mizpeh eastward; and they smote them, until they left them none remaining.
11:9 And Joshua did unto them as the LORD bade him: he houghed their horses, and burnt their chariots with fire.
11:10 And Joshua at that time turned back, and took Hazor, and smote the king thereof with the sword: for Hazor beforetime was the head of all those kingdoms."
Joshua 11:1 "And it came to pass, when Jabin king of Hazor had heard those things, that he sent to Jobab king of Madon, and to the king of Shimron, and to the king of Achshaph,"
Judges 4:24 "And the hand of the children of Israel prospered, and prevailed against Jabin the king of Canaan, until they had destroyed Jabin king of Canaan."
King Wan's dream must be one year after this battle of Merom. Israel chased the Midianites 40 miles to Zidon. That is not possible in the six hours from noon to sunset. Joshua had 24 extra hours in the battle of Gibeon, then Joshua would have 12 extra hours in the battle of Merom. This battle of Merom appears to be six months after Joshua's long day. The sun may move 180° back and earth flow out of the reverse orbit.
Thus, the battle of Merom February 5, 1240 BC and king Wan's dream February 5, 1239 BC.
Even if NASA did not discover the Missing Day, the calculations here stand on their own.
In the 1980's I managed the inventory of lumber sales to the U.S. east coast for Doman. In those years Doman shipped more lumber there than any other lumber company. 10 ships of 20 million board feet = 200 million board feet, a year to several ports on the US east coast. Baltimore, Maryland, - where Harold Hill heard the missing day story at NASA - was one of our ports and one of our smallest ports. My job was to count lumber packages cubic feet like 2 X 4 8 foot = 1024 cubic feet or 2 X 4 12 foot = 1280 cubit feet. These are the same numbers - Exodus in 1281 BC and from Jacob entering Egypt 1026 years from 2307 BC to the Exodus in 1281 BC.
This observation from James Legge in the Chinese Classics can only be true if the sun moved to the other side of the earth:
"But the vernal mansions go to the west and the autumnal ones to the east, reversing the previous directions of these two seasons, and in opposition to the prevailing notion of the Chinese that the spring belongs to the east, etc. This discrepancy does not seem however to trouble their minds at all, and we may safely leave it unexplained."
The Chinese Classics III p.95
The only explanation is God moved the sun to the other side of the earth, and earth flowed into a reverse orbit of the sun. To "safely leave it unexplained" is meaningless. There has to be an explanation. And God moving the sun is this only explanation.
Soon after reading this description I discovered God must have moved the sun to the other side of the earth, and earth flowed into a reverse orbit of the sun. Thus, not only is this possible the spacemen at NASA could have discovered this reverse orbit, it is most necessarily probable.
1 Thessalonians 5:21 "Prove all things; hold fast that which is good."
Sure, we need to be careful in accepting evidence that support our belief in God. But we do not want to reject the truth either. The sword is not broken!
Matthew 10:27 "What I tell you in darkness, that speak ye in light: and what ye hear in the ear, that preach ye upon the housetops."
The research on this page has never been debunked! And never will be! There is no shame in telling the truth! Christ be magnified!
Philippians 1:15 "Some indeed preach Christ even of envy and strife; and some also of good will:
1:16 The one preach Christ of contention, not sincerely, supposing to add affliction to my bonds:
1:17 But the other of love, knowing that I am set for the defense of the gospel."
This is the sincere truth!
"King Wan dreamt that he was clothed with the sun and the moon. A phoenix duck sang on mount K'e. In the first month of spring, on the 6th day, the five planets had a conjunction in Fang. Afterwards a male and female phoenix went about Wan's capitol with a writing in their beaks, which said: 'The emperor of Yin has no principle, but oppresses and disorders the empire. The great decree is removed: Yin cannot enjoy it longer. The powerful spirits of earth have left it; all the spirits are whistled away. The conjunction of the five planets in Fang brightens all within the four seas.'"
The Annals of the Bamboo Books, Part V the Dynasty of Chow p.143, The Chinese Classics.
Many discredit this record as a dream and not a documented astronomical observation. However, here the sun was setting in the west, and stood still just above and just below the western horizon for 12 hours while the sun moved back 180° from Virgo to Pisces. Thus, king Wan would be weary and feel like he was dreaming. The first quarter moon stood still directly above and the sun on the western horizon, thus king Wan dreamt he was clothed in the sun and moon.
In this 12 hours, king Wan would grow weary and sleep after a normal 12 hour day, only to wake and see the moon still overhead and the sun still in the west 12 more hours later. NASA replied they are not familiar with this text. In 1968 NASA could easily have followed the lunar eclipse records in the Chinese Classics.
That is, the lunar eclipse day 13 of cycle 60, September 24, 1205 BC in king Wan's 35th year = his first year = king Wan's dream! February 16, 1240 BC or more likely, February 5, 1239 BC.
From the list of solar eclipse records on page 103 of the Chinese Classics to king Wan's dream on page 143 are only 40 pages! Upon reading king Wan's dream they would immediately note the western sky in Scorpius meant the sun was in Virgo - in the first month of Spring! Someone stated they began their year in the fall and had mistakenly recorded the first month with spring. Nevertheless, the truth is king Wan's dream was recorded correctly. At sunset in China they would see the five planets gather directly above in Scorpius as God moved the planets out of the way of the sun in Virgo.
Then the sun would stand still just below the western horizon for 12 hours as the sun passed 180° from Virgo to Pisces.
King Wan's dream would give the NASA scientists the reverse orbit. Because orbit is against rotation, in half an orbit earth must be sped up 24 hours around the sun. The sun would need to stand still in the sky for 24 hours to counter the sped up 24 hours. Thus, the elapsed time of 24 hours and the missing time of 23 hours and 20 minutes. Because earth's orbit is eccentric, the sped up time must be 23 hours and 20 minutes at the half orbit point when the sun can move back without any effect to earth's orbit.
They were still missing 40 minutes to complete 24 hours! Where was there an example of the sun standing still for 24 hours? Joshua 10:12 of course!
Looking into the time of king Wan's dream, February 15, 1240 BC, or counting the current year the 35th year as the Chinese do, more likely king Wan's dream was February 5, 1239 BC because of the lunar eclipse in his 35th year, September 24, 1205 BC. Looking into the time of Joshua's long day = 1241 BC also because the Exodus was in 1281 BC. Then looking into the time, the same year, the spacemen needed to find the missing 40 minutes. Then the sped up time of the second half reverse orbit would be 24 hours and 40 minutes.
The sun would have to move 10° more than 180° when the sun returned February 4, 1240 BC or February 5, 1239 BC. 10 degrees = 40 minutes - Now it all adds up: the sped up time of the two halves of the reverse orbit year = 23 hours and 20 minutes and 24 hours and 40 minutes = 48 hours.
The solar eclipses on page 103 of the Chinese Classics would give NASA the exact moon movements to predict lunar eclipses as well; such as September 24, 1205 BC. Saturn's orbit position could also be easily calculated because it is the furthest planet from the sun, and the slowest moving planet.
Long days must be in multiples of 180° = 12 hours. The net total of long days = 48 hours. The sped up time = 48 hours. A continuous watch needs 48 hours of long days by year end to fill in the sped up time of 48 hours. A watch before the sun miracles that year would tell the exact same time when the sun moved back one year later.
There must be 48 hours of sped up reverse orbit. There must be 48 hours long days. In Hezekiah's sign the sun backed up ten steps. So instead of a long day of 12 hours, Hezekiah's sign may be a 24 hours long day, for the sundial to back up ten hours, that is the sun recede to the east the same rate the sun progresses to the west = 12 + 12 = 24 hours.
Nevertheless, for God to start a reverse orbit, the sun must move to the other side of earth. Then, God may move the sun east presently. For God to move the sun east at the speed of light, the sun would be darkened and black and take less than 30 minutes.
To see the sun reverse in the sky, God must move the sun under the speed of light. At 90% of the speed of light the sun may be dimmed 80%, and the sun pass ten hours on the sundial east, completing 180°. For the sun to be dimmed 80% would not be that noticeable, the sun is so bright. .85 X 12 = 10 hours.
The sun travelling at 80% of the speed of light is dimmed by 60%.
The falling/reverse zodiac in the Chinese Classics = earth in a reverse orbit, and this record of the sun in Virgo in Spring instead of in Pisces would be all NASA scientists would need in 1968 to uncover the Missing Day calculations I give here.
The following is an example but not Joshua's long day: first the sun moving 180° with earth's rotation to stand in the sky for 12 hours. The earth in a reverse orbit, rotation is against orbit, so the year must be sped up 48 hours or else there would be 367 days instead of 365 in the year. At the half orbit point, six months later, the sun and planets can move 180° back and earth flow out of the reverse orbit.
Then again the sun could stand still in the sky as the sun moved 180° for 12 hours, and earth flow out of the reverse orbit of the sun. Then the next day the sun move back 180° for 12 hours and earth flow into the reverse orbit of the sun.
Because rotation is against orbit, friction from the sun on earth's rotation would be double.
Then one year, or two years, after the first sun movement the sun move 180° again with earth's rotation to stand still in the sky for 12 hours and earth flow out of the reverse orbit of the sun.
Thus 4 X 12 hours of longer days = 48 hours of a sped up reverse orbit = zero. Thus, when God moved the sun in many different variations of this model in plus or minus 12 hour motions of the sun, there would be no net missing time.
If God sped up the earth 48 hours in reverse around the sun, God would have to completely control earth from going into a higher orbit. Thus, earth's reverse orbit would have to be meticulously controlled as if it were in a normal orbit.
Some people say it is impossible to stop the earth, or move the sun, because there is nothing out there. God did not stop the earth, but God did move the sun. God is there, and there is the hiding of his power.
Both sun miracles that are hidden, and the actual solar and lunar eclipse records that are hidden. Eclipse records match, such as 76 years further back for Pharaoh Akhenaten in 1414 BC to 1407 BC, and 13 or 8 years more recent for King Darius, and King Xerxes, and Alexander the Great.
The wrong dates match the correct dates. The correct dates are hidden. Dates 8 years or 11 years more recent match the same day of the month.
Habakkuk 1:5 "Behold ye among the heathen, and regard, and wonder marvellously: for I will work a work in your days, which ye will not believe, though it be told you."
Habakkuk 3:4 "And his brightness was as the light; rays flashed from his hand: and there was the hiding of his power.
3:5 Before him went the pestilence, and burning coals went forth at his feet."
There are 19 verses with the word brightnessH5051 refering to God.
Matthew 24:7 "For nation shall rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom: and there shall be famines, and pestilences, and earthquakes, in divers places."
Pestilence may be like the covid-19 today.
Deuteronomy 33:2 "And he said, The LORD came from Sinai, and rose up from Seir unto them; he shined forth from mount Paran, and he came with ten thousands of saints: from his right hand went a fiery law for them."
Galatians 4:25 "For this Agar is mount Sinai in Arabia, and answereth to Jerusalem which now is, and is in bondage with her children."
The Sinai is the home of the phoenix.
Habakkuk 3:11 "The sun and moon stood still in their habitation: at the light of thine arrows they went, and at the shining of thy glittering spear."
Joshua's long day the last quater moon and king Wan's dream the first quarter moon.
The sword and spear is glittering, perhaps because of a sun miracle the sun standing still at noon for 12 or 24 hours.
Also the noon sun = double light H6672, the brightest part of the day. To see the sun in the east or the west you are seeing through two atmospheres. To see the sun above you are only seeing through one atmosphere.
Joshua's long day = the sun standing still at noon. If sun miracles are often the sun standing still at noon, that may be reason to call the noon sun "double ligjht'.
Deuteronomy 32:41 "If I whet my glittering sword, and mine hand take hold on judgment; I will render vengeance to mine enemies, and will reward them that hate me."
Job 20:25 "It is drawn, and cometh out of the body; yea, the glittering sword cometh out of his gall: terrors are upon him."
Job 39:23 "The quiver rattleth against him, the glittering spear and the shield."
Ezekiel 21:28 "And thou, son of man, prophesy and say, Thus saith the Lord GOD concerning the Ammonites, and concerning their reproach; even say thou, The sword, the sword is drawn: for the slaughter it is furbished, to consume because of the glittering:"
Nahum 3:3 "The horseman lifteth up both the bright sword and the glittering spear: and there is a multitude of slain, and a great number of carcasses; and there is none end of their corpses; they stumble upon their corpses:"
John 19:34 "But one of the soldiers with a spear pierced his side, and forthwith came there out blood and water."
1 Corinthians 15:58 "Therefore, my beloved brethren, be ye stedfast, unmoveable, always abounding in the work of the Lord, forasmuch as ye know that your labour is not in vain in the Lord."
Joshua's army at Gibeon was unmoveable, the sun stood still. The sun stood still in the sky. Nevertheless, God moved the sun with earth's rotation to make the sun stand still in the sky.
Gideon, perhaps on the same day = midnight the second watch and the sun rising in the west, began the battle from mount Tabor. Tabor was in the tribe of Zebulun meaning "habitation". Then the sun standing still from Zebulun, may also mean the sun stood still that day the battle began in Zebulun. Jesus' habitation was at Nazareth about Zebulun.
Gideon's battle, Judges 6,7,8 probably was February 4, 1241 BC, Joshua's long day, Joshua 10:12 August 10, 1241 BC, Deborah and Barak Judges 4, 5, = Merom, Joshua 11, February 4, 1240 BC.
Judges 8:18 "Then said he unto Zebah and Zalmunna, What manner of men were they whom ye slew at Tabor? And they answered, As thou art, so were they; each one resembled the children of a king."
The following four verses, Judges 6:7 - 6:10, are not found in the oldest Hebrew. Gideon who must have fought the same day as Joshua, or six months - half an orbit earlier in February of 1241 BC, must have already been in the land before the Israelites of Moses and Joshua settled northern Israel.
The battle of Merom and Barak and Deborah, February 4, 1240 BC, was the 21st day of the first month = the last day of unleavend bread of the Passover. From Joshua's long day the 21st day of the seventh month half an orbit later is also the 21st day = the last day of the seven day Passover feast of unleavened bread, of the first month.
Exodus 23:15 "Thou shalt keep the feast of unleavened bread: (thou shalt eat unleavened bread seven days, as I commanded thee, in the time appointed of the month Abib; for in it thou camest out from Egypt: and none shall appear before me empty:)"
The Merneptah Stele describes the destruction of southern Israel: "Israel is laid waste and his seed is not; Hurru is become a widow because of Egypt." in Merneptah's fifth year, five years before the Exodus, and not the destruction of northern Israel, when some Jewish people had already settled in the land before Moses. Joshua had just crossed the river Jordan six months before this Joshua's long day from Gilgal:
The same year in 1286 BC, or 1284 BC, there was a new emperor, Woo-Yih, in China. Possibly the Chinese took a sun miracle for the omen to make a new emperor. Possibly there was a sun miracle at the time of this battle in Israel.
Joshua 10:7 "So Joshua ascended from Gilgal, he, and all the people of war with him, and all the mighty men of valour."
Judges 6:7 "And it came to pass, when the children of Israel cried unto the LORD because of the Midianites,
6:8 That the LORD sent a prophet unto the children of Israel, which said unto them, Thus saith the LORD God of Israel, I brought you up from Egypt, and brought you forth out of the house of bondage;
6:9 And I delivered you out of the hand of the Egyptians, and out of the hand of all that oppressed you, and drave them out from before you, and gave you their land;
6:10 And I said unto you, I am the LORD your God; fear not the gods of the Amorites, in whose land ye dwell: but ye have not obeyed my voice."
"The surprizing omission of four verses (Judges 6:7-10) in 4QJud a.." (Dead Sea Scroll from Qumran)
The Earliest Text of the Hebrew Bible, The Hebrew and Greek Texts of Judges, p.2.
Hebrews 3:16 "For some, when they had heard, did provoke: howbeit not all that came out of Egypt by Moses."
Israel must have already been in the northern parts, and were in the southern parts until Pharaoh Merneptah destroyed them in his fifth year 1286 BC as recorded on the Merneptah Stele: "Israel is laid waste and his seed is not." "not all that came out of Egypt by Moses." Then Gideon's battle in Judges 6, 7, 8, may either have been the same day as Joshua's long day or Gideon's battle may be February 4, 1241 BC when Israel crossed the river Jordan.
If the wall of water was at Zarera, Gideon could cross on dry ground. However, the dam of water most likely was right there opposite Jericho. Then Gideon may cross on the still water of the backed up dam water. Then, the Midianites be caught upstream where the Jordan was rushing down in a torrent of the spring flood.
Judges 7:22 "And the three hundred blew the trumpets, and the LORD set every man's sword against his fellow, even throughout all the host: and the host fled to Bethshittah in Zererath, and to the border of Abelmeholah, unto Tabbath.
7:23 And the men of Israel gathered themselves together out of Naphtali, and out of Asher, and out of all Manasseh, and pursued after the Midianites.
7:24 And Gideon sent messengers throughout all mount Ephraim, saying, Come down against the Midianites, and take before them the waters unto Bethbarah and Jordan. Then all the men of Ephraim gathered themselves together, and took the waters unto Bethbarah and Jordan.
7:25 And they took two princes of the Midianites, Oreb and Zeeb; and they slew Oreb upon the rock Oreb, and Zeeb they slew at the winepress of Zeeb, and pursued Midian, and brought the heads of Oreb and Zeeb to Gideon on the other side Jordan."
Judges 8:4 "And Gideon came to Jordan, and passed over, he, and the three hundred men that were with him, faint, yet pursuing them."
Joshua 3:16 "That the waters which came down from above stood and rose up upon an heap very far from the city Adam, that is beside Zaretan: and those that came down toward the sea of the plain, even the salt sea, failed, and were cut off: and the people passed over right against Jericho."
Zaretan and Zarerath must be the same place and be the same time = how far the waters were backed up the river Jordan.
The sun would be in Pisces the night before Joshua's long day. The sun would again be in Pisces when the sun returned the next day at sunrise on Sunday. Thus the sun still in its habitation. Yet, this was August the sun in Pisces, the sun normally would be in Virgo 180° from Pisces. Thus the sun on the other side of earth for this season, and in the reverse orbit. When the English Bible was written, even the Geneva Bible in print, before Galileo's discovery in 1610, the language described the sun revolving around the earth each day. Even the King James version was published the same year as Galilieo's discoverey, 1611, the Bible verses remained unchanged.
Joshua 11:7 "So Joshua came, and all the people of war with him, against them by the waters of Merom suddenly; and they fell upon them."
Merom means height. The waters near the heights. The sun also standing still six months later at noon.
To stand still, Amad = H5975, is the same word used both in Joshua and Habakkuk.
Joshua 10:13 "And the sunH8121 stood still,H1826 and the moonH3394 stayed,H5975 untilH5704 the peopleH1471 had avengedH5358 themselves upon their enemies.H341 Is notH3808 thisH1931 writtenH3789 inH5921 the bookH5612 of Jasher?H3477 So the sunH8121 stoodH5975 still in the midstH2677 of heaven,H8064 and hastedH213 notH3808 to go downH935 about a wholeH8549 day.H3117"
Habakkuk 3:11 "The sunH8121 and moonH3394 stood stillH5975 in their habitation:H2073 at the lightH216 of thine arrowsH2671 they went,H1980 and at the shiningH5051 of thy glitteringH1300 spear.H2595"
John 8:12 "Then spake Jesus again unto them, saying, I am the light of the world: he that followeth me shall not walk in darkness, but shall have the light of life."
"Thine arrows walked in light" - in the noon day light that the sun stood in for a whole day of 24 hours.
1 John 1:7 "But if we walk in the light, as he is in the light, we have fellowship one with another, and the blood of Jesus Christ his Son cleanseth us from all sin."
Joshua 10:26 "And afterward Joshua smote them, and slew them, and hanged them on five trees: and they were hanging upon the trees until the evening.
10:27 And it came to pass at the time of the going down of the sun, that Joshua commanded, and they took them down off the trees, and cast them into the cave wherein they had been hid, and laid great stones in the cave's mouth, which remain until this very day."
The five kings were hung on crosses. Three were hung on crosses when Jesus was hung on the cross. There are 49 year jubilees from this 1241 BC to Jesus' sacrifice in April 3, 33 AD. The five kings were put in a cave that Saturday the Sabbath. Jesus was laid in the tomb on the Sabbath. Thus, the connection of walking in the light as the arrows walked in light on Joshua's long day, and the connection to the blood of Jesus that cleanses us from all sin. Jesus rose from the dead the next day, Sunday, April 5, 33 AD.
Israel should know God was moving the sun with earth's rotation, 360° through the zodiac to stand still in the sky for 24 hours. Just because the catholic church believed the sun went around the earth each day in Galileo's day does not mean Joshua believed the sun went around the earth each day. Psalm 19 was not a misunderstanding. The psalmist was writing about God moving the sun around the earth. To say the psalmist was writing about a primitive belief the sun went around the earth each day is just an uneducated assumption.
Israel also may know the sun was so far away that for the sun to stand still in the sky with earth's rotation, the sun must travel near the speed of light.
Habakkuk 3:11b "at the light of thine arrows they (the sun and moon) went".
That is, God must move the sun at 1/30th the speed of light = "at the light of thine arrows they went".
God moving the sun at 1/30th the speed of ligth to stand still in the sky for 24 hours.
An object traveling one tenth the speed of light for 24 hours is seven minutes younger.
Thus, if God moved the sun around the earth three times in 24 hours at one tenth the speed of light, and the day would be one third of a day, the sun would be seven minutes younger.
Thus, the day God moved the sun, giving Joshua a clue this was a good day to ask God to continue to move the sun.
Possibly God was moving the sun from west to east that day, then 360° around the earth to make the sun stand still at noon for 24 hours.
Time slowed on the sun that day, Joshua's long day, time slowed on the sun by about one minute.
Habakkuk 3:11 "The sun and moon stood still in their habitation: at the light of thine arrows they went, and at the shining of thy glittering spear."
Relativity means time is slower at the sun when the sun is traveling near the speed of light.
When God moved the sun at 20 million miles per hour to make it stand still in the sky, time on the sun only slowed by less than a minute. Over many sun miracles time would slow many minutes.
Time starts to slow noticeably at 1/10th the speed of light. If the sun were to rise in the west, west to east in the same time as the usual east to west, the sun would travel 1/15th the speed of light. This is about the 1/10th the speed of light that time begins to slow noticeably.
"The earth which moves at 30 kilometers a second around the sun, would appear to an observer at rest relative to the sun, shortened only by a few inches... in addition to apparent changes in length, there are also apparent changes in time..gravity clocks, such as pendulum clocks and sand glasses, would be useless. (because outer space is weightless)."
Relativity Simply Explained, p.40.
"it would take about 36 million years (for earth) to drag a full circle." There are 32 million seconds a year.
Twisting Space Time, Ken Tapping.
That is 15 miles per earth orbit of 540 million miles or one second per year. That is, time would slow and earth would be one second younger than the sun in one year.
"Thus, the whole number of years [of early Egyptian history] is 341 Pharaohs, in which entire space, they said, no god had ever appeared in a human form; nothing of this kind had happened either under the former or under the later Egyptian kings. The sun, however, had within this period of time, on four several occasions, moved from his wonted course, twice rising where he now sets, and twice setting where he now rises. Egypt was in no degree affected by these changes; the productions of the land, and of the river, remained the same; nor was there anything unusual in the diseases or the deaths."
The History of Herodotus, chapter 2
When God moved the sun around the earth 360° very near the speed of light - time stops at the speed of light, time would slow down by one hour = time would stop for one hour at the sun, on the surface of the sun. Over many darkened, 360° movements, of the sun, time would slow many hours. Time, a watch, on earth would remain untouched.
"If an object tries to travel 186,000 miles per second, its mass becomes infinite, and so does the energy required to move it. For this reason, no normal object can travel as fast or faster than the speed of light"
Google speed of light, people also ask is there anything faster than the speed of light?
Thus, God moving the sun near the speed of light would take almost infinite energy.
God may keep the moon at the same position = the same daily tide that day. Then God must put a gravity where the sun was to keep the same solar tide that day.
Job 26:10 "He hath compassed the waters with bounds, until the day and night come to an end."
Thus, when God moved the sun east to set in the east, and then to rise suddenly in the east, the tide would match: "until the day and night come to an end."
The sun very near the speed of light would leave no tide. No light and no gravity when travelling at or very near the speed of light. Then also, this was for only one hour. So the lack of a solar tide for one hour may be hard to detect.
This means the spectrum of light will be red, simply time is slower only the red end of the spectrum leaves the sun's surface. The sun is a green star. Because of the atmosphere the sun appears yellow. Even so, the sun we see is really white not yellow. So relativity means the sun should appear reddish when it was moved around the earth. And especially reddish if the sun was moved near the speed of light.
Matthew 17:2 "And was transfigured before them: and his face did shine as the sun, and his raiment was white as the light."
The sun is really white, although we paint it yellow.
If the sun travelled at 99.5% of the speed of light, the sun would be dimmed 90%, and time slowed 90%.
The sun at 99.5% of the speed of light, in the one hour to complete 360° around the earth, one tenth of that time passed on the sun. Thus, time on the sun would pass 6 minutes while time on earth pass 60 minutes. Then the sun would be darkened 90%.
If that does not make the sun dark enough, God may have moved the sun 99.9999% of the speed of light.
Thus the sun travelling 360° in one hour at very near the speed of light may leave just seconds had passed on the sun as it was moved 360°.
Just seconds would pass in that one hour, and the sun be darkened 99.99%, or more like 99.9999%, like a total eclipse.
Then for all intents and purposes God must have moved the sun very near the speed of light to make the sun totally dark.
Psalm 19:3 "There is no speech nor language, where their voice is not heard.
19:4 Their line is gone out through all the earth, and their words to the end of the world. In them hath he set a tabernacle for the sun,
19:5 Which is as a bridegroom coming out of his chamber, and rejoiceth as a strong man to run a race.
19:6 His going forth is from the end of the heaven, and his circuit unto the ends of it: and there is nothing hid from the heat thereof."
"Ra hath a fair wind..the gods of the south..praise thee, O, thou divine substance, from whom all forms of life come into being. Thou sendest forth the word, and the earth is flooded with silence, O thou only One, who didst dwell in Heaven before ever the earth and the mountains came into existence. O Runner, O Lord, O only One, thou maker of things which are.."
The Ancient Egyptian Book of the Dead. Prayers, Incantations and other texts from the Book of the Dead. p.58.
There were at least two times the sun must have traveled around the earth near the speed of light; the sun darkened at noon at the fall of Jerusalem, September 7, 591 BC = the 7th day of the moon; and when the sun was darkened at noon when Jesus was on the cross, April 3, 33 AD = the 15th day of the moon. So neither could be a solar eclipse.
One year after the fall of Jerusalem September 7, 591 BC is the 17th day of the seventh month, Sunday, September 7, 590 BC = Jesus' birth on the 17th day of the seventh month, September 12, 7 BC.
The "solar eclipse" record in China on day 40 of cycle, is a record of darkness. Even if there is no record of the darkness when Jesus was on the cross outside of the Gospels, there is this record of darkness at the fall of Jerusalem that may be identical. There is also evidence of the most massive solar storm in the sun in this 591 BC as well.
There appears to be no record of Joshua's long day or Hezekiah's sun dial reverse out side of the Bible. But there is king Wan's dream one and a half years after Joshua's long day. There is a record of a solar eclipse recorded in China about when Hezekiah's father King Ahaz died on day 42 in 718 BC that cannot be a solar eclipse. There is a sun miracle on day 28, March 28, in 688 BC recorded in China when King Hezekiah died as well.
688 BC and 868 BC are on a sin-maou year 28 of cycle 60, and the year begins in spring on a new moon on a day 28 of cycle 60.
There was a massive sun storm 2610 years ago, from 2019 AD = 591 BC, that was ten times stronger than any event in the last 70 years. Ice samples reveal three massive sun storms in the last 3000 years, March 11, 2019.
The fall of Jerusalem, the sun moved around the earth near the speed of light, the seventh day - not a solar eclipse or a lunar eclipse, September 7, 591 BC, may have caused this solar storm.
December 10, 2020 - B.C. Hydro prepares for strong geomagnetic storm.
This means the sun must be at least two hours younger than the earth. That is, the sun must have revolved around the earth very near the speed of light both September 7, 591 BC and April 3, 33 AD.
There were many other sun miracles in history that could involve the sun traveling around the earth near the speed of light, such as the day Julius Caesar was assassinated, perhaps taken as an omen to assassinate Julius, March 15, 45 BC, to point to Jesus' perfect life of 38 years in reverse to 7 BC when Jesus would be born.
You can see the full moon on March 15, 45 BC:
Jeremiah 1:3 "It came also in the days of Jehoiakim the son of Josiah king of Judah, unto the end of the eleventh year of Zedekiah the son of Josiah king of Judah, unto the carrying away of Jerusalem captive in the fifth month"
Thus the solar eclipse of Jerusalem in the fifth month = the solar eclipse of Halys in the fifth month, September 7, 591 BC, not May 28, 585 BC.
Wired.com: "The most likely candidate for Thales' eclipse took place on May 28, 585 BC, though some authorities believe it may have been 25 years earlier in 610 BC."
"war broke out between Lydia and Media. It lasted five years, with victory going first to one side, then to the other. After all this indecisive fighting, in the sixth year, there was a battle in which day turned into night"
The Greek Histories.p.21.
"In 585 BC a solar eclipse so terrified the Medians and Lydians that they forgot about the vicious battle they were fighting and fled the battlefield."
Morelikely, the sun was darkened for an hour at noon, at the fall of Jerusalem, than a solar eclipse of a few minutes. Thus, the Medians and Lydians were so terrified they forgot about the battle.
Thus, the date September 7, 591 BC, the same fifth month as the Thale's eclipse, is six years more recent - not 25 years more recent, is most likely the actual solar eclipse record = a sun miracle at the fall of Jerusalem.
"Dio goes so far as to claim that Caesar was now to be worshipped as Jupiter Julius..Julius Caesar's family boasted of their descent from Venus."
Caesar, Adrian Goldsworthy, the Ides of March, p.601.
"on the night of 14 March Calpurnia (Caesar's wife) suffered a nightmare in which she variously claimed to have seen either the pediment of the house collapsing or that she was holding his murdered body in her arms"
"Then the morning sacrifices on the 15th were repeated several times, but the omens were always unfavorable."
"It was late morning by the time Caesar had arrived and the time had passed nervously for the conspirators"
Caesar, Adrian Goldsworthy, the Ides of March, p.616.
Thus, if there was darkness at this exact 11 AM (12 PM Israel time = the darkness at the sixth hour of the day when Jesus was on the cross) meeting at the Roman Senate, this astronomical sign could be taken as the omen to assassinate Julius Caesar.
Brutus and his co-conspirators never met openly to discuss the assassination of Julius Ceasar for the obvious fear of being found out. All the more reason there may have been this omen of darkness that they all acted on immediately.
From the full moon March 15, 45 BC is to the full moon September 9, 45 BC. Jesus fulfilled the jubile on September 9, 29 AD, (or October 7, 29 AD) = the same day of the tropical year.
There was a massive sun storm 2610 years ago, from 2019 AD = 591 BC, that was ten times stronger than any event in the last 70 years. Ice samples reveal three massive sun storms in the last 3000 years, March 11, 2019.
"dated to 567 BC" if this 567 BC is a correct astronomical date, then this aurora may be a magnetic storm caused by God moving the sun. 567 BC = 600 years to Jesus' sacrifice April 3, 33 AD.
Ezekiel 40:1 "In the five and twentieth year of our captivity, in the beginning of the year, in the tenth day of the month, in the fourteenth year after that the city was smitten, in the selfsame day the hand of the LORD was upon me, and brought me thither."
The tenth day of the first month should be the day the children of Israel took in their lamb unto the 14th day when they sacrificed the lamb on the Passover. The tenth day was Palm Sunday when Jesus entered Jerusalem on a donkey.
The anniversary of the fall of Jerusalem September 7, 591 BC should be the 17th day of the seventh month, September 7, 590 BC. The lunar month backs up 11 days a year. Day 7 + 11 = 18. Jesus probably was born on the 17th day of the seventh month, September 12, 7 BC.
"the selfsame day" Saturday the 7th day of the 5th month, September 7, 591 BC may be the selfsame day, Friday, September 18, 578 BC, the 10th day of the seventh month.
The tenth day of the first month is equal to the crossing of the river Jordan, February 4, 1241 BC. Thus, there may be a sun miracle also in the 14th year from 591 BC, perhaps 577 BC. Sunday, March 13, 577 BC was the tenth day of the first month. Jesus entered Jerusalem on Palm Sunday, March 29, 33 AD.
24 years back from 577 BC is the first captivity in 601 BC is the first year of Zedekiah. 577 BC is 570 years to Jesus' birth in 7 BC. 577 BC is 70 years to the foundation of the temple being laid in 507 BC in King Darius second year. From 577 BC is 605 years to Jesus' ministry beginning in 29 AD. From the 30th year of 50 is 612 BC and the death of Josiah = 605 years to Jesus' birth in 7 BC.
570 = 5 X 114; 605 = 5 X 121.

From July 29, 595 BC to January 29, 592 BC is exactly two and a half years = two and a half orbits - are possible sun miracles.
Ezekiel 32:1 "And it came to pass in the twelfth year, in the twelfth month, in the first day of the month, that the word of the LORD came unto me, saying,"
Ezekiel 26:1 And it came to pass in the eleventh year, in the first day of the month, that the word of the LORD came unto me, saying,
26:2 Son of man, because that Tyrus hath said against Jerusalem, Aha, she is broken that was the gates of the people: she is turned unto me: I shall be replenished, now she is laid waste:"
March 8, 591 BC is half an orbit before September 7, 591 BC when Jerusalem fell at darkness at noon.
March 8, 591 BC - the month is not given, but was assumed the end of the year before April - the 11th month or the 12th month. The year was assumed either 587 BC or 586 BC. Thus, four years back is 591 BC. Thus, the 11th year, the 11th month, the first day = March 8, 591 BC.
Then this 11h month first day be Friday, March 8, 591 BC, the 12th month first day be April 8, 591 BC, The first month be May 7, 591 BC, June, July, August = 1, 2, 3, 4 and the fifth month September 1, 591 BC.
Then the solar eclipse record for September 7, 591 BC be the fifth month = the solar eclipse on day 40, 591 BC in China and the solar eclipse of Halys, not a solar eclipse in the same fifth month, but the seventh day of the fifth lunar month and thus be also the sun miracle at the fall of Jerusalem, Saturday, September 7, 591 BC.
Ezekiel 40:1 "In the five and twentieth year of our captivity, in the beginning of the year, in the tenth day of the month, in the fourteenth year after that the city was smitten, in the selfsame day the hand of the LORD was upon me, and brought me thither."
This 567 BC may be the 25th year from the destruction of Jerusalem, the fifth month the seventh day, September 7, 591 BC - the 10th day of the 1st month may be the 10th day to the Passover the 14th day, or it may mean the 1st month, the 10th day of Yom Kippur in 567 BC = 600 years to Jesus' sacrifice; or this same September 7 in the 14th year from the destruction of Jerusalem September 7, 591 BC. That is Yom Kippur, September 7, 577 BC.
The crossing of Israel through the Jordan dry river bed, with Jordan in full flood, on the tenth day of the first month = Sunday, February 4, 1241 BC may have been a long day.
The entering into the Holiest once a year on the tenth day of the seventh month = first month of the civil year. Jesus fulfilled this jubile on Yom Kippur, September 9, 29 AD, or October 7, 29 AD, when he spoke from Isaiah 61:1 in Luke 4:18 "The Spirit of the Lord is upon me".
568 BC, like many sun miracles ending in X68 BC, is 600 years to Jesus' sacrifice.
More likely, the 14th year is from the destruction of Jerusalem September 7, 591 BC. The 25th year of captivity date from Zedekiah's first year of eleven years in 602 BC. 577 BC therefore is this date. 577 BC is 70 years to when the foundation of the temple was laid in Darius' second year in 507 BC = 500 years to the birth of Christ about September 12, 7 BC.
Wikipedia "The tenth of Tishri 574 BC is precisely as stated in Ezekiel 40:1, both in the 14th year of the temple's destruction in 587 BC and the 25th year of Jeconiah's exile in 597 BC."
The destruction of Jerusalem was September 7, 591 BC, four years further back than 587 BC. The 14th year = 578 BC, the 25th year from 602 BC. The 49 jubile year was in 605 BC. 578 BC was 71 years to the 49 year jubile in 507 BC.
Friday, September 18, 578 BC was this 14th and 25th year, the 10th day of the 7th month.
A jubile year may be 572 BC continuing to Jesus speaking from Isaiah 61 in Luke 4 on Yom Kippur, beginning on the 10th day of the 7th month, Friday, September 10, 572 BC. The return from the captivity was in 521 BC after 70 years from 591 BC = 50 years from 571 BC to 521 BC.
"In his 5th year (580 BC from 584 BC) the duke, King of Tsin died..in his 13th year (572 BC from 584 BC) the duke Le of T'sin died."
The Chinese Classics
Jeconiah Wikipedia: "The Talmud (tractate Arakin 12a,b) and the Seder Olam (chapter 11) also say that Ezekiel saw his vision at the beginning of a Jubilee year, the 17th, consistent with this interpretation of Ezekiel 40:1."
605 BC was a 49 year jubile year. Jeconiah was taken into captivity in 602 BC.
From 608 BC - 17 years = 591 BC and the 50 year jubile from Joshua's long day August 10, 1241 BC.
The seventh month, the 17th day, Tuesday September 13, 577 BC = 570 years to Jesus' birth the 17th day of the 7th month, perhaps Saturday, September 12, 7 BC. 577 BC is 70 years to the foundation of the temple being laid in 507 BC..
This Chinese astronomical record 2000 years earlier may also describe an aura, and a connection to a solar storm = aura, and a sun miracle:
"In his, Huangdi, 20th year, (2636 BC), brilliant clouds appeared. Note: The auspicious clouds was in this way: The vapours of the red quarter [the south] extended so as to join those of the green [the east]. In the red quarter were two stars, and the green, one; all of a yellow colour, which appeared when the heavens were clear and bright.. When the emperor was sitting in a boat on the Yuen-hoo, above its junction with the Lo, there came together phoenixes, male and female."
The Chinese Classics III, The Annals of the Bamboo Books, p. 109.
"Lo, there came together phoenixes, male and female." means the sun and moon were together in this first month and twentieth year from 2657 BC = January 26, 2636 BC = the beginning of the counting 60 years and counting 60 days.
Half an orbit after Saturday January 26, 2657 BC should be about 186.5 days to the full moon on July 31, 2657 BC. If from Saturday to Saturday, 189 days later, is Saturday, August 2, 2657 BC = the 17th lunar day, of the fifth month or the sixth month or the seventh month.
2657 BC is in 50 year jubiles, 53 X 50 years, to Jesus' birth in September 12, 7 BC.
Phoenixes were recorded again 50 years later, on day 57 of cycle 60, the seventh month, October 18, 2607 BC = the autumn equinox = the 17th day of the 7th month = Jesus' birth the 17th day of the 7th month September 12, 7 BC.
The counting not from 2696 BC, but 60 years more recent from 2636 BC. Yao's long day not 2356 BC but 40 years more recent in 2315 BC = Joseph's dream of the sun and moon obeying him, to begin the seven years of plenty. The Kelin in his seventh year to begin the seven years of famine, 2308 BC = Israel sojourning in Egypt in 2307 BC = 2300 years to Jesus' birth September 12, 7 BC.
"Kwang's standard tables place Yaou's first year in 2357 BC, or 2356 BC"
The Chinese Classics, p.88.
In counting from Huangdi in 2696 BC to emperor Yao in 2356 BC is 340 years.
The correct date is counting from emperor Huangdi's first year in 2656 BC 340 years to emperor Yao in 2315 BC. The first year of Huangdi was in 2656 BC = Yao's long day in 2316 BC or 2315 BC = the first year of Joseph in Egypt = the first year of the seven years of plenty in Egypt.
The counting of years of sixty, and days of sixty, not from 2696 BC, but in Huangdi's 20th year = 2356 BC - 20 = 2636 BC. Counting from January 26, 2636 BC = the new moon and phoenixes = a sun miracle.
This means when God moves the sun again there probably will be a massive solar storm. Only, this time the storm will probably knock out satellites.
This new moon January 26, 2636 BC may be like the new moon January 25, 1241 BC the crossing the River Jordan the tenth day Sunday, February 4, 1241 BC and perhaps a sudden sunrise.
Exodus 16:1 "And they took their journey from Elim, and all the congregation of the children of Israel came unto the wilderness of Sin, which is between Elim and Sinai, on the fifteenth day of the second month after their departing out of the land of Egypt."
Exodus 16:22 "And it came to pass, that on the sixth day they gathered twice as much bread, two omers for one man: and all the rulers of the congregation came and told Moses."
Sunday, April 29, 1281 BC was the first day of the week, the first day of manna, the 15th day of the second month.
Joshua 5:10 "And the children of Israel encamped in Gilgal, and kept the Passover on the fourteenth day of the month at even in the plains of Jericho.
5:11 And they did eat of the old corn of the land on the morrow after the Passover, unleavened cakes, and parched corn in the selfsame day.
5:12 And the manna ceased on the morrow after they had eaten of the old corn of the land; neither had the children of Israel manna any more; but they did eat of the fruit of the land of Canaan that year."
Thus, the Passover, the 14th day of the first month, Thursday, February 8, 1241 BC, and the morrow be Friday, February 9, 1241 BC.
"The Jewish (or Hebrew) calendar is luni-solar, being ruled by both the lunation (the synodic lunar month) and the tropical year. The Jewish month has 29 or 30 days, and the year has 12 or 13 months. Moreover, both types of years can vary in three ways, so a Jewish common year may contain 353, 354, or 355 days, and an embolismic or leap year 383, 384, or 385 days. The names and months and their lengths are given in Table 9.A."
Let A be the year number in the Jewish calendar, and X be the year in the Julian or Gregorian, calendar. Then the date in the year X on which 15 Nissan occurs can be found by the following formulae due to Gauss."
C = INT (X/100) S
S = INT (3C - 5)/4
A = X + 3760
a = [12X + 12]19
b = [X]4
Q = -1.904412361576 + 1.554241796621a + 0.25b - 0.003177794022X + S
j = [INT(Q) + 3X + 5b + 2 - S]7
r = Q - INT(Q)
If X < 1583, or inorder to obtain Q in the Julian calendar, take S = 0.
"If A is the Jewish year number, then take the remainder [A]19. If this remainder is 0, 3, 6, 8, 11, 14, or 17, then that year has 13 months; otherwise it is a common year of 12 months."
"Tishri 5752 corresponds to 1991 September 9, Gregorian."
Astronomical Algorithims, The Jewish and Moslem Calendars, p.72.February 8, 1241 BC is a little early for the Passover and the fall of Jerusalem in the fifth month, September 7, 591 BC is a little late for the fifth month = the solar eclipse of Halys in the fifth month.
It is easy for the lunar calendar to fall back a month without a second month of Adar every three years.
Likewise, and adjustment forward one or two months is possible too.
Exodus 16:22 "And it came to pass, that on the sixth day they gathered twice as much bread, two omers for one man: and all the rulers of the congregation came and told Moses."
The sixth day was Friday.
Joshua 6:3 "And ye shall compass the city, all ye men of war, and go round about the city once. Thus shalt thou do six days."
Joshua 6:15 "And it came to pass on the seventh day, that they rose early about the dawning of the day, and compassed the city after the same manner seven times: only on that day they compassed the city seven times.
6:16 And it came to pass at the seventh time, when the priests blew with the trumpets, Joshua said unto the people, Shout; for the LORD hath given you the city."
Joshua 6:25 "And Joshua saved Rahab the harlot alive, and her father's household, and all that she had; and she dwelleth in Israel even unto this day; because she hid the messengers, which Joshua sent to spy out Jericho."
"unto this day" should mean the Book of Joshua was written before Rahab died.
The fall of Jericho was on the seventh day, Saturday, February 17, 1241 BC.
"above its junction with the Lo, there came together phoenixes, male and female." means the new moon that began the counting of 60 days and 60 years was also a sun miracle, the phoenixes moving both the sun and the moon. 100 years earlier was the end of the Egyptian sothis cycle 2737 BC.
Here you can see the 60 day and 60 year cycle names, beginning from this new moon in Huangdi's 20th year from 2656 BC = January 26, 2636 BC"
Historical Supernovae and their Remnants, p.14
Here you see the 60 cycles again. These cycles of sixty days and sixty years must have begun on the new moon and sun miracle January 26, 2636 BC in Huangdi's 20th year from 2657 BC.
The Chinese Classics. p.96.
"The first mention of the cyclical name of a day is found in the Shoo, Pt IV. Bk.IV.p1. It is said to have been the 12th month of the first year of the emperor T'ae-kea."
"This is the only instance of the use of the cycle which occurs before 1121 BC." The decisive battle was the disappearing of the moon, just before the new moon, on day 29 of cycle 60 January 1, 1174 BC. The new moon was January 3, 1174 BC. Day 29 of cycle 60, January 22, 1121 BC was the fifth lunar day and does not work.
"In the first month, the day jin-shin, day 29 of cycle 60, immediately followed the end of the moon's waning. The next day was Kwei-ke, day 30 of cycle 60, when the king in the morning marched from Chow to attack and punish Shang."
The Chinese Classics. Books of Chow, Book III. p.306.
The date 1539 BC + 120 years = 1659 BC. The 12th month February 26, 1658 BC is day 5 of cycle 60 and is the new moon.
The common dating is from the new moon January 7, 1500 BC is day 5 of cycle 60.
The real date for counting days of 60 is day 5 on the new moon February 26, 1658 BC.
Even earlier, the real date for the counting of 60 days and years was the new moon, January 26, 2636 BC in Huangdi's 20th year.
March 17, 46 BC = "Slaves deserted and brought news that beginning on March 5 (March 17, the fifth lunar day), which was when the battle at Soricaria had happened, great fear prevailed; moreover, Attius Varus was in command of the forts all around. That day Pompey moved camp and occupied a position opposite Spalis in an olive grove. Before Caesar set out for the same place, the moon was visible about the sixth hour of the day."
The Landmark Julius Caesar, Spanish War, p.624
This five lunar day = the moon at the eastern horizon and the sun in the middle of the sky = the position of the sun and moon on Joshua's long day. Then the possibility this too was a long day.
Nevertheless, king Wan's dream February 5, 1239 BC at sunset on China = the sun at noon in Israel and the sun standing still for 12 hours at noon while the sun was moved 180° to the other side of earth and earth flow out of the reverse orbit began with the crossing of the river Jordan February 4, 1241 BC. The five day moon rising then standing still in the east in Israel. Thus, the Romans may have seen an omen in a similar sun miracle that day.
August 10, 1241 BC in the Julian calendar was equal to July 30th in our Gregorian calendar = 31 days to September + 22 days to the equinox = 54 days or about half way, half way is 45 days, from the summer solstice to the autumn equinox. Gibeon was at the 33rd latitude, the sun at the 11th latitude = 90° less 20° = the sun at 70° at noon on August 10, 1241 BC.
Thus, Joshua's long day be 40 days after the summer solstice. Autumn in China would begin 45 days after the summer solstice.
The sixth lunar day of king Wan's dream February 5, 1239 BC, one and a half orbits earlier would be Joshua's long day on the 21st day of the seventh month = the moon in the Ajalon valley when the sun was at the noon day and stood there for 24 hours. Thus, Joshua's long dya may be August 10, 1241 BC.
If God moved the sun March 17, 46 BC then one year later he may move the sun back March 15, 45 BC. Just like the crossing of Jordan, February 4, 1241 BC, Joshua's long day August 10, 1241 BC, the battle of Merom, February 4, 1240 BC and God move the sun back and earth flow out of the reverse orbit of the sun, February 5, 1239 BC.
Caesar's comet: "the bright day-light visible comet appeared suddenly during Ludi Victoriae Caesaris, shone for seven successive days", held in the month of September.
Thus, also this comet may point to Jesus' birth 38 years later, September 12, 7 BC.
Here you can see the comet Neowise is visible in the day, picture taken 11 PM PDT July 15, 2020, just below the Big Dipper:
Friday night, February 10, 2023 I saw comet E3 (ZTF) a fuzzy area, to the upper left of Mars through a spotting telescope. By this time the comet can hardly be seen by the naked eye.
"When the tug-of-war is won by the gravity of our solar system, an object may start moving inwards, accelerating as it gets closer to the sun," Leonard explained. - Comet Leonard.
Thus, God moving the sun may be felt out in the Oort Cloud, and draw comets to the earth.
"In his (King K'ing) sixth year (611 BC), a comet entered the Great Bear (the Big Dipper) and the King died."
The Chinese Classics, p.164,
Here you see comet Hale-Bopp from February 24, 1997:
There was a partial solar eclipse visible from China in the early morning of April 28, 612 BC. The partial solar eclipse, the comet, or a sun miracle in 611 BC may have been the omen for the Chinese to make a new emperor.
King Josiah died about 612 BC.
Jupiter and Saturn in conjunction December 22, 2020:
Jupiter and Saturn in conjunction, but not directly above Bethlehem = 52° above, at midnight in September of 7 BC:
God may have left Jupiter and Saturn in their normal orbit when he moved the sun around the earth, Jupiter and Saturn being so much further away. Jupiter is 5 astronomical units from the sun, and Saturn is 9 astronomical units from the sun. The distance from the earth to the sun is one astronomical unit.
The conjunction of Saturn and Jupiter was in Pisces in September of 7 BC. When God moved the sun to the other side of earth on that date about September 12, 7 BC, then Jupiter and Saturn would not appear above at midnight after September 12 7 BC, but would appear beside the sun.
If the sun is the colour red, then the moon and planets and comets must be red too.
This means the planets, comets, and moon, would reflect this reddish sunlight and also appear red. This record was taken as an omen at the death of Caesar:
"Thus, the sun suffered a total eclipse and most of the sky seemed to be on fire; glowing embers appeared to be falling from it and blood-red comets were seen."
Dio Cassius, Book LVI p.67
A lunar eclipse record may have actually been a sun miracle, the red sun reflecting onto the moon. Thus, the lunar eclipse of September 15, 5 BC that was recorded as a blood moon by Josephus, may have actually been the colour red reflected from a red sun.
Leviticus 23:34 "Speak unto the children of Israel, saying, The fifteenth day of this seventh month shall be the feast of tabernacles for seven days unto the LORD.
23:35 On the first day shall be an holy convocation: ye shall do no servile work therein."
The 15th day was on Sunday the first day, September 17, 5 BC.
Jesus' birth about September 12, 7 BC or September 13, 7 BC; the sun move and return two years later September 15, 5 BC. Two years of sped up orbit 2 X 48 hours = 4 X 24 hours. Thus, the sun may return two days after two whole years of reverse orbit.
Astronomers Think They Know Why This Black Hole Is Flashing Red Light
"The most distant galaxies have red shifts so big that they must be moving away from us at speeds approaching the speed of light!"
Earth and Space, p.189
The sun travelling near the speed of light is equal to light coming from a black hole. Time is almost stopped in both situations. Therefore, only light at the red end of the spectrum can escape. This is proven with relativity.
God is light. God can and has hidden his power. A classic method is this reverse orbit that leaves no net missing time.
Then there would be 48 hours sped up time and 4 X 12 hours long days. 48 hours - 48 hours = no net time difference.
Isaiah 40:12 "Who hath measured the waters in the hollow of his hand, and meted out heaven with the span, and comprehended the dust of the earth in a measure, and weighed the mountains in scales, and the hills in a balance?"
God would need to know the exact weight of the earth to speed up earth's orbit in reverse so perfectly to appear from earth to be normal and to leave no physical evidence behind - not even any missing seconds or minutes in order for lunar and solar eclipse paths to exactly match what they would have been had not God moved the sun.
Isaiah 43:13 "Yea, before the day was I am he; and there is none that can deliver out of my hand: I will work, and who shall reverseH7725 it?"
Jeremiah 4:28 "For this shall the earth mourn, and the heavens above be black: because I have spoken it, I have purposed it, and will not repent, neither will I turn backH7725 from it."
H7725 שׁוּב shûb shoob A primitive root; to turn back (hence, away) transitively or intransitively, literally or figuratively (not necessarily with the idea of return to the starting point); generally to retreat; often adverbially again: - ([break, build, circumcise, dig, do anything, do evil, feed, lay down, lie down, lodge, make, rejoice, send, take, weep]) X again, (cause to) answer (+ again), X in any case (wise), X at all, averse, bring (again, back, home again), call [to mind], carry again (back), cease, X certainly, come again (back) X consider, + continually, convert, deliver (again), + deny, draw back, fetch home again, X fro, get [oneself] (back) again, X give (again), go again (back, home), [go] out, hinder, let, [see] more, X needs, be past, X pay, pervert, pull in again, put (again, up again), recall, recompense, recover, refresh, relieve, render (again), X repent, requite, rescue, restore, retrieve, (cause to, make to) return, reverse, reward, + say nay, send back, set again, slide back, still, X surely, take back (off), (cause to, make to) turn (again, self again, away, back, back again, backward, from, off), withdraw. Total KJV occurrences: 1058
The word shoob H7725 "turned back" is used again when God moved the sun "back" ten steps = ten hours on a sun dial for a sign to King Hezekiah.
This is only true if the sun had moved 180° and earth had flowed into a reverse orbit of the sun. You can see Fang/Scorpius in the east when the sun is in September. For Spring to be in Scorpius, the sun must have moved 180°. This diagram is from 2300 BC from Chinese emperor Yao, in 1240 BC the eastern constellation at the Fall equinox was Virgo, a month later followed Scorpius.
Here again you see the 28 mansions of the lunar zodiac, on page 94 of the Chinese Classics. Notice the spring equinox in 2300 BC is in the west in Taurus. For spring to be in the east, the sun must be moved to the other side of earth and earth flow into a reverse orbit of the sun.
You see Fang/Scorpius, where the sun is in at autumn, by the E for east. However, the Chinese depicted spring in the east. The year progressing as the day the sun rising in the east and setting in the west. Normally the sun travels more and more toward the east through the year.
Earth normally passes, that is the sun passes, from Aquarius in the north in winter to Taurus in the west in spring to Leo in the south in summer to Scorpius/Fang in the east in autumn. In a reverse orbit earth, that is the sun in the zodiac, passes from Aquarius in the North in winter to Scorpius/Fang in the east in spring, to Leo in the south in summer and to Taurus in the west in autumn.
That is why you see the stars set at sunset then they disappear. That is, the star you see appear at dusk on the western horizon will in a few days or a week already have set in the west before dusk, and not appear. Thus, as earth orbits normally counter clockwise the sun moves from the west to the east through the zodiac. In a reverse orbit, the sun would travel more and more towards the west, like sunrise and sunset. Thus, in a reverse clockwise orbit, the sun passes from the east to the west throughout the year. If there was a sun miracle in spring in 2300 BC the sun would be in this Fang/Scorpius in the east of this zodiac. Thus, spring would be in the east. Thus, the Chinese belief Spring is in the East.
If the sun moved 180° in spring, the sun would be, end up, to the east of the zodiac by Fang/Scorpius. Earth precesses one sign every 1000 years. So this diagram of the Chinese zodiac is from 2300 BC. 1000 years later, in the time of Joshua, where you see Scorpius would equal the six day moon directly above, and the sun in Leo/Virgo. Yao became emperor after a long day, Joseph's sun miracle, 1000 years before Joshua. Joshua was a direct descendent of Joseph. Yao recorded spring in the east after the long day. Spring can only be in the east of the zodiac in a reverse orbit.
From Joseph becoming governor over all of Egypt April 1, 2315 BC to Joshua's long day August 10, 1241 BC is 1074 years. Likewise, Yao's 70th year and sun miracle 2245 BC and Joseph becoming 100 years old (2245 BC to Shun's 14th year in 2207 BC is the 38 years life span of Jesus) to Joshua's long day is 1004 years.
For Joshua's long day, and king Wan's dream 1000 years later, you can picture the first quarter moon above in Scorpius and the sun setting in Leo/Virgo in spring! The sun in spring in February should be in Aquarius, the six day moon of king Wan in Taurus!
"But the vernal mansions go to the west and the autumnal ones to the east, reversing the previous directions of these two seasons, and in opposition to the prevailing notion of the Chinese that the spring belongs to the east, etc. This discrepancy does not seem however to trouble their minds at all, and we may safely leave it unexplained."
The Chinese Classics III p.95
The sun must be near Pisces in Spring, that is just a fact. This zodiac from Yao has spring in Taurus in 2300 BC. By Joshua's time spring was in Aries/Pisces, not Taurus. By Jesus' time spring was in Pisces. Chinese spring is 45 days before the spring equinox. Thus, February 15 is 45 days before March 31 the spring equinox in 1239 BC. At the time of Joshua's long day and king Wan the spring equinox was March 31, 10 days after March 21.
Saturn takes 29 years to orbit the sun = the 28 lunar mansions above. Jupiter takes 12 years to orbit the sun = the 12 signs of the zodiac = 12 lunar months a year.
Thus, when earth was in a reverse orbit the 28 lunar mansion would appear in the same forward sequence, only earth would be 180° = 6 of the 12 signs of the 12 month zodiac away = 14 of the 28 lunar mansions away, and the following month the lunar zodiac also would appear one month earlier in earth's reverse orbit. Thus, there would be quite a change in the 28 lunar mansions for each month in earth's reverse orbit. Thus, spring in China is in the east = the sun in Fang/Scorpius = the sun in this 28 lunar zodiac 180° away = a reverse orbit.
"Instead of each planet being linked only to the sun by a brass arm, it's as if they were linked by gravitational springs as well. The most powerful one linked the two biggest bodies, Jupiter and Saturn..As the planets interacted with plantesimals, their own orbits shifted. Jupiter moved slightly inward; Saturn moved slightly outward - until at a certain point Saturn was completing exactly one orbit for every two of Jupiter's"
National Geographic, Our Wild Wild Solar System, July 2013. p.54
This Julian calendar backs up one day every 128 years. So, from 1241 BC to 1 AD = 10 days the spring equinox backs up to March 21.
Thus, in 1241 BC, the spring equinox was April 1, not March 21.
Chinese spring begins 45 days before the spring equinox. Thus, king Wan's dream, the six day moon, February 5, 1239 BC was the lunar month of spring. From the new moon on February 1, 45 days = March 17 = 14 more days = 59 days, to the spring equinox April 1, 1241 BC. With an adustment of 14 days = 14 more days than 45 days, spring began in China on the new moon, February 1, 1239 BC.
This is because we use the Julian calendar in years Before Christ = BC, and we use the Gregorian Calendar after 1 AD = Anno Domini = Year of our Lord. The Gregorian calendar keeps in step with the seasons.
Julius started the calendar on the new moon = January 1, 45 BC. He died on the full moon = the Passover = March 15, 45 BC. Next the Roman emperor Diocletian started the Diocletian system in his first year = 284 AD. In year 247 the monk Dionysius specifically renamed the calendar Anno Domini Year of our Lord = 532 AD. 532 - 247 = 285 AD. Dionysius named 1 AD, January 1, as the year of Jesus' birth; but not the day, not December 25.
In 248 AD Rome celebrated its 1000th year from 752 BC. From the full moon and Passover, April 21, 751 BC or from the full moon and Passover April 1, 752 BC.
"Philip II, 247–249 AD, Syria, Seleucis and Pieria, Antioch, AR Tetradrachm, struck 248-249 AD" with the phoenix.
"CONSTANS Phoenix FIREBIRD Antique 348AD Ancient Authentic OLD Roman Coin."
Or the Passover, full moon, Sunday, March 21, 751 BC. The spring equinox was March 23, 751 BC.
The sun darkened on the 49 year jubile on the Passover April 1, 752 BC be like the sun darkened when Jesus was on the cross, April 3, 33 AD, be like the sun darkened on the full moon and Passover, the darkened sun taken as an omen to assassinate Julius Caesar, March 15, 45 BC = 38 years to Jesus' birth September 12, 7 BC.
The full moon April 1, 752 BC is closer to the date of Jesus' sacrifice the full moon, April 3, 33 AD. Also, 752 BC is a 49 year jubile to Jesus' sacrifice April 3, 33 AD.
The founding of Rome may have been darkness at noon on the Passover April 21, 751 BC or April 1, 752 BC = 49 year jubiles to Jesus' sacrifice April 3, 33 AD when the sun was darkened at noon. Amos prophesied the sun would go down at noon.
Isaiah 13:13 "Therefore I will shake the heavens, and the earth shall remove out of her place, in the wrath of the LORD of hosts, and in the day of his fierce anger."
Isaiah 24:20 "The earth shall reel to and fro like a drunkard, and shall be removed like a cottage; and the transgression thereof shall be heavy upon it; and it shall fall, and not rise again."
Amos 1:1 "The words of Amos, who was among the herdmen of Tekoa, which he saw concerning Israel in the days of Uzziah king of Judah, and in the days of Jeroboam the son of Joash king of Israel, two years before the earthquake."
The date of the earthquake is reported as 750 BC; at the death of King Uzziah.
'Fake' Seal Impression of Biblical King Jeroboam Is Authentic, New Study Says"
2 Kings 15:27 "In the two and fiftieth year of Azariah king of Judah Pekah the son of Remaliah began to reign over Israel in Samaria, and reigned twenty years."
Archaeologists find jar handle bearing the name “Menahem”.
Amos 8:9 "And it shall come to pass in that day, saith the Lord GOD, that I will cause the sun to go down at noon, and I will darken the earth in the clear day:
Isaiah 8:10 "And I will turn your feasts into mourning, and all your songs into lamentation; and I will bring up sackcloth upon all loins, and baldness upon every head; and I will make it as the mourning of an only son, and the end thereof as a bitter day."
Isaiah 6:1 "In the year that king Uzziah died I saw also the Lord sitting upon a throne, high and lifted up, and his train filled the temple."
Thus the mourning for king Uzziah.
From the founding of Rome in 752 BC at the death of King Uzziah, to the founding of Israel in 1948 AD = 2700 years.
King Uzziah may have died in 750 BC, 16 years for King Jotham, 16 years for King Ahaz, Hezekiah became king in 718 BC or 717 BC. From 718 BC are 50 year jubiles to Jesus' sacrifice.
The darkness at 11 AM in Rome when Julius Caesar was assassinated on March 15, 45 BC = noon in Israel at the Passover. Thus, a connection with the founding of Rome in 752 BC = 49 year jubiles to Jesus' sacrifice, the darkness then and the darkness in 45 BC.= 38 years in reverse to Jesus' birth in 7 BC.
The great earthquake was dated to approximately 759 BC. The sun going down at noon = God moving the sun around the earth very near the speed of light, and the resulting earthquake, may be eight years more recent than 759 BC date, and be this same day, April 21, 751 BC or April 1, 752 BC.
Jesus was on the cross and darkness from the sixth hour = 12 PM to the ninth hour = 3 PM.
Mark 15:33 "And when the sixth hour was come, there was darkness over the whole land until the ninth hour."
There must have been a sun dial near to the cross where Jesus was crucified. The sun dark = disappearing from noon, and reappearing at 3 PM = the sun moved 360° around the earth at the speed of light in one hour, overshooting by two hours = the sun at the speed of light accomplished 360° in 55 minutes; 5 more minutes = 60 minutes. 5 / 60 X 24 hours = 2 hours; The shadow lengthened 1 + 2 = 3 hours; the sun would then appear on the sundial at the 3 PM position.
The 49 year jubile to Jesus' sacrifice April 3, 33 AD was in 752 BC. Hezekiah's sign also in the 49 year jubile to Jesus' sacrifice, on the Passover Sunday, March 31, 703 BC.
Isaiah 6:1 "In the year that king Uzziah died I saw also the Lord sitting upon a throne, high and lifted up, and his train filled the temple."
From 751 BC, 16 years for Jonathan, 16 years for Ahaz, to 718 BC and from 717 BC 14 years to Hezekiah's sign in 703 BC.
From 751 BC 52 years of Uzziah's reign back to 801 BC, and all the chronology fits.
Ahaz must have died in 718 BC/717 BC = the death of emperor P'ing his reign from 769 BC = 800 years to Jesus' sacrifice. Cyrus the Great must have died in 518 BC = the death of emperor King King. Herod rebuilt the temple in 18 BC = 46 years to Jesus speaking at the Passover April 7, 30 AD and the 49th year the jubile on Jesus' sacrifice April 3, 33 AD.
"In his 48th year, - mow-woo, the 1st year of the prince Goh of tsin, - there was thunder without any clouds. The duke Hwuy of Loo died. In his 49th year, ke-wei, the first year of duke Yin of Loo. In this year, the Ch'un-Ts'ew, begins.."
The Chinese Classics. p.160.
From 769 BC the 48th year = 722 BC, the 49th year = 721 BC, the 50 year jubile to Jesus speaking in Luke 4 from Isaiah 61.
"The Ch'un-ch'iu has been translated into English by Legge (1872). The chronicle is largely concerned with the State of Lu (the birthplace of Confucius) and its interaction with other semi-independent states into which China was divided at this period. Only a formal allegiance was paid to the Chou king by the rulers of individual states...36 eclipses of the sun...February 22, 720 BC, is the earliest from any part of the world."
Historical Eclipses and Earth's Rotation, by F Richard Stephenson. p.222
You can see this solar eclipse is barely visible from China at sun rise:
BC is simply Before Christ. AD is simply Annos Domini meaning Year of the Lord. The year of the Lord January 1, 1 AD began the Gregorian calendar. In the Julian calendar the year is 365.25 days. This means every four years a day is added like February 29. However, our year is really 365.24 days. This adds up to one extra day every 128 years. From 1 AD, theoretically Jesus' birth, we use the Gregorian Calendar that keeps step with the vernal equinox.
The year 2000 AD had no February 29 = not every four years is a leap year, to keep in step with the seasons.
The monk Dionysius Exiguus determined year one to be 1 AD in 525 AD.
The year 2000 would be a fourth year for February 29, but to adjust for the century there was no February 29, 2000 AD.
In a reverse orbit there had to be long days that added up to 48 hours. The earth sped up in the reverse orbit needed 48 hours long days to equal the same length of time in a year or there would be 367 days a year. Thus, the counting of February 29 as a 48 hour day in the Roman calendar.
February 23 was the double day in the Roman calendar. There were sun miracles on a February such as Sunday, February 4, 1241 BC, Thursday, February 5, 1239 BC. And sun miracles in January. Day one, year one = January 26, 2636 BC. Day 29 of cycle 60, the new moon, January 2, 1174 BC, in winter - 155 BC, 148 BC and 141 BC.
"If in Adar the sun stands still at noon" = a long day in February.
There may have been many sun miracles when the sun stood still at noon in Adar = February, such as on king Wan's dream. There the noon day sun in Israel stood still for 12 hours while at the same time the sun seen from China stood still under the western horizon. This February 5, 1239 BC, day six of the lunar day, may be in the second month of Adar in Israel. A second month of Adar is added every three years because the moon cycle is eleven days short each year. 3 X 11 = 33 days or about one month.
Instead of a sun miracle when Jericho was taken, possibly two weeks earlier there was a sun miracle when the children of Israel crossed the Jordan river, in the first month February, the tenth day of the lunar month, February 4, 1241 BC - one year later, February 4, 1240 BC may be the second month of Adar when the sun may have stood still at noon. Again, one more year later the sun may stand still at noon on Israel, February 5, 1239 BC and be king Wan's dream = sunset in China.
Joshua 2:6 "But she had brought them up to the roof of the house, and hid them with the stalks of flax, which she had laid in order upon the roof."
Flax was harvested in the lunar month of Adar = February.
Jericho was the center of worship of the moon. These two messengers that Joshua sent to Jericho would have been let down the window of Rahab at night, probably the crescent moon, the first quarter moon, February 1, 1241 BC.
The last quarter moon, February 17, 1241 BC, may have risen before the sun in the east = the early and sudden sunrise the day Joshua circled Jericho seven times and the walls of Jericho fell down.
Nevertheless, the sun more likely moved to the other side of earth two weeks before the walls of Jericho fell, at the crossing of the river Jordan by the children of Israel = one very long day.
There are many caves behind Jericho:
Joshua 2:22 "And they went, and came unto the mountain, and abode there three days, until the pursuers were returned: and the pursuers sought them throughout all the way, but found them not."
Julius Ceasar began the Julian calendar with the new moon January 1, 45 BC. Then February 23, 45 BC was the 23d day of the second lunar month = 5 days before the end of the month.
The sun miracle when Shun became emperor after Yao, day 38 of cycle, perhaps, Friday, February 26, 2246 BC, also was the last quarter moon = lunar day 23.
AM is Anno Mundi. That is Latin for the year of the world 5358 BC in 110 X 49 year jubilees to Jesus' sacrifice, or 5368 BC in 108 X 50 year jubilees. 50 year jubiles from Adam in year 700 in 4668 BC = 4700 years = 94 X 50 years to Jesus' sacrifice April 3, 33 AD, and 49 year jubiles from Adam in year 700, 4672 BC; 96 X 49 = 4672 BC.
Or from Adam in year 800 Armenian Sothis, 4568 BC = 4600 years to Jesus' sacrifice = 92 X 50 years.
The full moon May 10, 4568 BC. 4568 / 128 = 35 days to keep the same tropical date. Jesus' sacrifice April 3, 33 AD = 35 days back from May 10.
Genesis 5:4 either 700th year = Greek Septuagint or 800th year = Hebrew Masoretic.
"Lion Gate (Greek: Πύλη των Λεόντων) is the popular modern name for the main entrance of the Bronze Age citadel of Mycenae in southern Greece. It was erected during the thirteenth century BC, around 1250 BC, in the northwestern side of the acropolis. In modern times, it was named after the relief sculpture of two lionesses in a heraldic pose that stands above the entrance.[1] The gate is the sole surviving monumental piece of Mycenaean sculpture," 1250 BC Greek was established. The written Greek began about 1500 BC. Cuniform began about 2000 BC.
"Linear Elamite was a writing system used in Elam during the Bronze Age between c. 2300–1850 BC,"
The Greek Septuagint was translated from Hebrew in 230 BC. The Hebrew Masoretic text dates from 930 AD. Thus, the Greek Septuagint translation goes back further.
Noah's flood dates 27 X 49 year jubilees 5th week 5th year = 1323 + 35 + 4 = 1363 years from year 700, 4668 BC to 3307 BC.
The Roman calendar, to make the year an even 365 days, counted February 23, and February 24, as one day. When God moved the sun, there were short days and long days that may have motivated this calendar. Today, we just have February 29 every four years.
"On 16 February 423 BC, the 16th day of the month" may be counting lunar days. The 16th day of the lunar month was February 25, 423 BC Julian, is 11 years more recent, is February 24, 412 BC Julian - nevetheless it should be 7 years more recent in 416 BC. These dates of February 23 and 24 were counted as one day. However, February 16, 423 BC may just be February 16 and not the lunar day. Nevertheless, there were sun miracles recorded in the month of Adar = February.
Seven years more recent, February 16, 423 BC is February 16, 416 BC = the 24th lunar day.
Or 11 years more recent, February 16, 423 BC is the full moon, February 23, 412 BC.
4668 BC points to 4700 years to Jesus' sacrifice. Thus, Friday March 8, 4668 BC was the fourteenth day, the full moon. Year 700 means the calendar backed up one day every four years, 700 / 4 = 175 days. Back from July 23 175 days = February 26, 4668 BC.
Counting from 5372 BC 700 years to 4672 BC, 700 / 4 = 175 days, back 175 days from July 23 is the full moon, Friday, February 20, 4672 BC = the Passover.
Likewise, the Passover, the full moon, April 3, 2307 BC was new years backed up 430 years from the Egyptian sothis cycle 2737 BC. Back from July 16. 430 / 4 = 107. April 3, 2307 BC was 104 days back. The full moon when Joseph was made governor over Egypt, April 1, 2315 BC was this 107 days back. April 1 was Pharaoh's birthday.
Jesus went to the cross on April 3, 33 AD.
New years may be July 11 in the Armenian Calendar, like new years in the Egyptian was July 16.
More likely, the Armenian sothis calendar from further north began a few days or several days later on July 23.
New years was when Sirius first appeared before the sun at dawn July 16 at Cairo Egypt, on July 23 in the Aral Sea seven days later.
Then, king Wan's dream on February 5, 1239 BC, would mean the sun would be one sign earlier in the year than Aries, that is, Pisces.
One year before king Wan's dream when the sun moved 180° back and earth flowed out of the reverse orbit, in the first sun miracle by Joshua when the sun moved 180° and earth flowed into the reverse orbit, may be the fallen walls of Jericho, perhaps Saturday, February 17, 1241 BC.
Or more likely the sun moved two years before king Wan's dream, at the crossing of the Jordan, Sunday, February 4, 1241 BC. Thus, earth be in a reverse orbit for at least two years, and the sun not move at the conquest of Jericho, but two weeks earlier.
27 X 7 = 189 days. Thus, from Sunday, February 4, 1241 BC, to Saturday, August 10, 1241 BC is 188 days. 188 / 365 X 48 hours = 24:40 hours, exactly as in the Missing Day Story.
Thus, the sun may have stood still at the crossing of the Jordan, February 4, 1241 BC, and the sun again must have stood still on the third quarter moon half an orbit later for Joshua, August 10, 1241 BC.
Earth nearest the sun is called the perihelion. Earth farthest from the sun is called the aphelion. This means 90 days after the perihelion to 90 days before the perihelion, earth has swung out and that half orbit is 187 days. From equinox to equinox is half an orbit. Thus, the number of days of a sun miracle before the equinox equal the same number of days before the next equinox = half an orbit when the sun must return.
The perihelion moves ahead one day every 58 years. So, at the time of Joshua's long day the perihelion would be about November 1, 1241 BC.
In 4100 BC the Aphelion coincided with the spring equinox, meaning the Periphelion coincided with the fall equinox. The fall equinox in 4100 BC was in October 24. Thus 3000 years later in 1241 BC, this nearest earth, the Periphelion, would occur in this November in the Julian calendar.
Today, December 16, 2020, the sun sets one minute later, even though the winter solstice is 4 days away. This is because earth speeds up its orbit as we approach the perihelion, nearest approach of the sun. Earth loses one full day in our counterclockwise orbit of the sun because orbit is with earth's rotation.
That is, there are 366 sidreal days a year. So, our days are 4 minutes longer = one less day a year. Simply we rotate as we orbit = 366 days sideral but is 365 days.
Likewise, earth orbiting the sun in reverse rotation is against orbit. Earth must speed up its orbit by 48 hours or we would have an orbit of 367 days.
24 hours divided by 365 days = 4 minutes a day. 24/365 X 60. Likewise, as earth speeds up this same direction in December 16, the day is one minute longer.
February 4, 1240 BC is a last quarter orbit, day 21 of the first lunar month, about 97 days, from earth's nearest approach to the sun, November 1, 1240 BC. Over the past 7000 years earth's nearest approach of the sun has shifted from September to January. Thus, the half orbit from 12 PM February 4, 1241 BC to 12 PM August 10, 1241 BC is the 188 days.
The perihelion moves forward one day every 58 years = 34 days in 2000 years. Joshua's long day in August 10, 1241 BC = 1241 / 128 = 9 days that the calendar must be moved back to keep in the same season. 1240 years / 58 = 21 days. 34 days + 21 days + 9 days = 64 days. The perihelion in January 4, 2023 in 1241 BC = November 1, 1241 BC.
Then the sun could move back and earth flow out of the reverse orbit on king Wan's dream, February 5, 1239 BC. For there to be 365 days a reverse orbit year earth must speed up 48 hours in its orbit around the sun. Else there would be 367 days a year because rotation is against orbit.
Then the sun may have stood still at the crossing of the Jordan river February 4, 1241 BC and half an orbit later = 188 days. 188 / 365.25 X 48 hours = 24:42 hours exactly = the same 40 minutes missing from 24 hours in the Missing Day Story.
Earth is nearest the sun in January = the normal sped up half. From February 4, 1241 BC to Joshua's long day August 10, 1241 BC is the slower half = 23:20 hours = 40 more minutes to 24 hours, that are regained when the sun returned one and a half orbits later February 5, 1241 BC = 24:40 hours, adding 48 hours sped up reverse orbit. There must be at least two years of reverse orbit.
February 5, 1239 BC is two weeks earlier, more or less the same quarter orbit from earth's nearest approach to the sun.
The fall of Jericho was on Saturday. This must have been Saturday, February 17, 1241 BC.
However, there need not be a sun miracle at the fall of Jericho.
Joshua did not give the people a Sabbath day of rest. Thus, the day of Joshua's conquest might have been on a Sabbath, Saturday, August 24, 1241 BC, or more likely, Saturday, August 10, 1241 BC. Then, the sun must return one and a half years after the sun miracle on Joshua's long day - on king Wan's dream, February 5, 1239 BC.
Or a sun miracle at Joshua's crossing of the dried up river bed of the Jordan when Jordan was in full flood, February 4, 1241 BC and the sun return two years later February 5, 1239 BC.
In the book of Enoch a 364 calendar is used of 52 weeks. Thus, if there was a sun miracle on a Sabbath, the sun may return one year later also on a Sabbath. Perhaps the sun miracle of Joshua's long day was noted thus.
Or there were more sun miracles on the Sabbath, thus the 364 day calendar. The Essenes used a 364 day calendar. Even a 364 day calendar from the Book of Jubilees = the truth because of so many accurate dates from Genesis. Only, the fixed calendar was not kept, only the lunar calendar was kept = the Exodus the full moon Friday March 29 1281 BC, Jesus' sacrifice the full moon Friday, April 3, 33 AD.
"And I saw six portals in which the sun rises, and six portals in which the sun sets and the moon rises and sets in these portals, and the leaders of the stars and those whom they lead: six in the east and six in the west, and all following each other in accurately corresponding order..."
The Ethiopian Bible. Book of Enoch. p. 1134.
"The six portals" = the sun may move 180° = six months of the 12 month zodiac.
The sun may have moved February 17, 1241 BC and back February 15, 1240 BC and the day of Joshua's long day on the Sabbath day, August 10, 1241 BC.
However, more likely the sun moved back February 5, 1239 BC. Then two years before be the crossing of the river Jordan, Sunday, February 4, 1241 BC. There was leap year February 29, 1241 BC. Thus, 364 days later be Sunday, February 2, 1240 BC. But king Wan's dream be February 5, 1239 BC.
Exodus 23:29 "I will not drive them out from before thee in one year; lest the land become desolate, and the beast of the field multiply against thee.
23:30 By little and little I will drive them out from before thee, until thou be increased, and inherit the land."
Joshua's conquest = widespread city-destruction.
Joshua 18:1 "And the whole congregation of the children of Israel assembled together at Shiloh, and set up the tabernacle of the congregation there. And the land was subdued before them.
18:2 And there remained among the children of Israel seven tribes, which had not yet received their inheritance."
This reverse orbit should span two or three years to king Wan's dream, February 5, 1239 BC.
There was conquest, but not full conquest, in the first year, from the crossing of the river Jordan, February 4, 1241 BC to the battle at Joshua's long day, August 10, 1241 BC, to the conquest of Merom in Joshua 11 that includes the battle of Barak and Deborah in Judges 4, 5 = the same day, probably, February 4, 1240 BC. The battle of Gideon in Judges 6, 7, 8.
The same forty years = these battles in the same year:
Judges 3:11 "And the land had rest forty years. And Othniel the son of Kenaz died."
Judges 5:31 "So let all thine enemies perish, O LORD: but let them that love him be as the sun when he goeth forth in his might! And the land had rest forty years."
Judges 8:28 "Thus was Midian subdued before the children of Israel, so that they lifted up their heads no more. And the country was in quietness forty years in the days of Gideon."
At the end of the year, people still lived in the villages. So the wild beasts did not multiply.
At a Veterans hospital it was posted "the war is over, all that is left are the personal battles."
I Corinthians 15:57 "But thanks be to God, which giveth us the victory through our Lord Jesus Christ."
Then we have about 24 hours of missing time in this half orbit unaccounted for. Earth must speed up 24 hours in half a year of 183 days.
One and a half years = 548 days from summer solstice to winter solstice = 183 days + 365 days = 548 days. However. from the spring equinox to the fall equinox is 186.5 days. And 27 X 7 days = 189 days, from Sunday, February 4, 1241 BC to Saturday, August 10, 1241 BC is less one day, is 188 days.
But this half orbit from Sabbath to Sabbath is 189 days, but from Sunday February 4, 1241 BC to Sabbath August 10, 1241 BC, is 188 days, 188/365.2422 X 48 hours = 24 hours 40 minutes. But the sped up first reverse half orbit has 23:20 hours sped up time, and the second reverse half orbit has 24:40 hours sped up time.
Earth is nearest the sun in winter = the sped up half of earth's orbit. In Earth's elliptical orbit, earth accelerates near the sun in this January 3. Thus, from the fall equinox to the spring equinox earth's orbit is sped up = 178 days from the fall equinox to the spring equinox and 186.5 days from the spring equinox to the fall equinox.
The two half orbits: 23 hours 20 minutes and 24 hours 40 minutes. The first half from February 4, 1241 BC to Joshua's long day August 10, 1241 BC is 188 days, but is the slower half orbit. Thus, the 23 hours and 20 minutes sped up orbit from the crossing of the River Jordan, February 4, 1241 BC to Joshua's long day, Saturday, August 10, 1241 BC.
Equally well, moving the sun at the crossing of the Jordan, Sunday, February 4, 1241 BC, 188 days later, Joshua's long day, Saturday, August 10, 1241 BC. From Sunday to Saturday is 188 days, 1241 BC has leap year February 29. 189 days / 7 = 27. - from Sunday to Sunday - one day short - from Sunday to Saturday is 188 days. 188 / 365 X 48 hours gives the 24:40 hours in the Missing Day Story.
We are still missing 40 minutes from 24 hours at the half orbit of Joshua's long day (24 hours - 23:20 hours = 40 minutes), just like in the missing day story. The sun may only revolve 350° around the earth when Joshua asked God to make the sun stand still in the sky. Thus, the elapsed time would match the missing time of that half orbit exactly.
The elapsed time = time the sun stood still in the sky on Joshua's long day should be 23 hours and 20 minutes. Missing time of the sped up earth reverse orbit, 48 hours, must equal elapsed time the sun stood still or moved east or moved west in 12 hours amounts adding up to 48 hours. The sun must move back 190° half an orbit later, and earth flow out of the reverse orbit. Thus, the 10° more than 180° = the missing 40 minutes. Thus, king Wan would see the sun stand just below the western horizon for 12 hours, then rise 10° in the west before setting again in the west when the sun returned and earth flowed out of the reverse orbit. Thus, king Wan lightened the western sky. Thus, the Missing Day story adds up.
Then when the sun returned February 4, 1240 BC or February 5, 1239 BC, the sun must move 190° east to match the 24:40 minutes missing time of the second half reverse orbit. Thus, we may have found the missing 10°. The sun must move 180° back and earth flow out of the reverse orbit of the sun February 4, 1240 BC or more likely February 5, 1239 BC. The sun must also move a further 10° back that day, 190°, to make up for the 40 minutes. The word "about" a whole day fits. The sun stood still in the sky for 23 hours and 20 minutes for Joshua. Then we may have found the missing 40 minutes in the missing day story.
The sun may move 350° and not 360° almost a circle at noon on Joshua's long day. That day the sun can be pictured rising in the west to noon - standing still at noon for 24 hours = the sun circling the earth, then setting in the east, then suddenly rising in the east. Then, half an orbit later, when the sun moved back, the sun may move 190°. Then king Wan would see the sun stand still in the west at sunset, and also rise 10° before setting.
The shortest half orbit, the next half orbit of 177 days, is also the more sped up half orbit, from 12 PM August 10, 1241 BC to 12 PM February 4, 1240 BC, or more likely one and a half orbits from Joshua's long day Saturday, August 10, 1241 BC to February 5, 1239 BC, less 12 hours because the sun is on the other side of the earth = 177 days 12 hours = 365.24/177.5 X 48 / 4 = 24 hours 42 minutes. Or 365 - 188 = 177. There are 363 X 24 hour long days in reverse orbit. Thus, the 360° reverse orbit of earth would end two days earlier than 365 days, the 48 hours of long days will make the reverse orbit 365 days in time.
Frag. 26 (1 Enoch 79) "Through the sixth gate, for its light is completed.. twenty-five weeks and two days."
25 X 7 = 175, + 2 = 177 days in six months.
Rotation is against orbit, so the number of days and nights would still be 365 days. Nevertheless, from Sunday February 4, 1241 BC to Saturday, February 3, 1240 BC is 363 days. Or from Sunday, February 4, 1241 BC to Monday February 4, 1240 BC, is 365 days, and one more year of reverse orbit to king Wan's dream February 5, 1239 BC is 365 days and 366 days. But from Sunday February 4, 1241 BC to Saturday February 3, 1240 BC is 363 normal days because of leap year February 29 and that there are 52 X 7 = 364 days between the same days of the week.
Thus February 4, 1241 BC the year previous and then February 4, 1240 BC one year later are the same day = 365 days. With long days = 48 hours the length of the year is 363 days + 2 days = 365 days in total length = no net missing time.
The Essenes kept a 364 day calendar so all dates fell on the same day of the week.
King Wan's dream may have been February 5, 1239 BC. Then two years earlier be a long day when Joshua and the children of Israel crossed the river Jordan Sunday, February 4, 1241 BC. Half an orbit later be Joshua's long day, August 10, 1241 BC.
The moon takes 24:50 hours to reappear at the same location each day. Earth must be sped up 24:40 hours from August 10, 1241 BC to February 4, 1240 BC. This is a ten minute difference. Earth must be sped up eight minutes a day to equal 48 hours a year. The moon must also be managed to keep the same lunar tides a day. The earth must be managed to keep the same solar tides a day.
To move the sun back in 189 days, 2.5 days longer than the half orbit 186.6 days = a sped up half orbit of 24:50 hours matching the lunar tide.
To move the sun in under the speed of light 360° would take more than 55 minutes. Thus, the difference of the high tide of 24:50 hours against 24 hours may be countered by the length of time to move the sun. 50 more minutes than 24 hours in 360° would mean the gravity from the sun would match the lunar phase 24 hours later.
The transit time of the moon is often 55 minutes later each day = the 55 minutes for the sun to travel around the earth at the speed of light.
The rising of the moon is often 55 minutes later each day as well.
18,000 years ago the sea level was 430 feet lower. Thus, finding measurements of the gravity affect on tides from sun miracles thousands of years ago would be very difficult.
Simply, leaving a gravity pull where the sun and moon would be - as if they did not move with earth's rotation, the gravity from the sun is only 46% of the moon's gravity; then 24:40 hours later or 24:50 hours later when the sun and moon have moved 360°, let there be the gravity pull from the sun and moon again. It takes 8 minutes for gravity from the sun to reach the earth, perhaps the difference from 24:40 hours for the missing day and 24:50 hours for the lunar tide.
The tide opposite the moon is 90%, thus there are two tides a day.
The sun and moon pull on the side of the earth nearest them. The tide on the other side of the earth is from inertia, not from gravity. The moon moves around the earth, so the lunar tide changes. So, yes the gravity tide would match the sun and moon from where they are. The speed of gravity is the same as the speed of light.
The ocean tide on the other side of the earth could be produced by a gravity pull on the other side of the earth. The sun pulling on the same side as earth rotates = the sun and moon standing still in the sky for 12 hours or for 24 hours = the tide staying on the same place as the earth rotates, the far side also staying as the earth rotates. God must have a way to do this.
The speed of light and gravity from the sun to the earth is eight minutes. The speed of light and gravity from the moon is one second. Thus, God may delay moving the moon for eight minutes to keep both in sync in that one second.
The moon orbits the earth in 29.5 days. 24 hours divided by 29 = 50 minutes, 50 minutes a day. About 55 minutes a day. The sun may revolve around the earth 360° at the speed of light in 55 minutes.
Gravity from the moon takes about one second to reach earth. High tides are 12:25 hours apart = 24:50 hours a day = the moon's orbit around the earth. Thus, if the sun and moon moved with earth's rotation the tides would also match their location.
However, the "centrifugal" force on the other side of the earth should continue to produce a high tide on the other side of the earth that is moving. So does that tide on the other side moving with "centrifugal" force stand still with the moon and the sun?
There is no centrifugal tide. The ocean's tide is not moving. So for the sun and moon to stop in the sky both the tide near the sun and moon would stop moving and the tide furthest the sun and moon would stop moving as well.
National Geographic Picture Atlas of OUR UNIVERSE, p.116.
"Gavitation, remember, weakens as distance becomes greater. So the Moon tugs with greater force on that side of Earth facing the Moon, with less force on Earth's far side. Because, on our Earth's far side., the outward pull of centrifual force is stronger than the inward pull of the Moon's gravitation, another bulge of water forms - our second high tide."
Centrifugal force is in italics. They did not yet know in 1986 that the tide opposite the moon was not from centrifugal forces.
Tides 12 hours apart means that God may keep the gravity pull, both of the sun and the moon, where it normally would be. Then 12 hours later when the sun had stood still for 12 hours, the sun been moved 180°, the "centrifugal tide" would be facing the moon, and then the gravity pull of the moon now be applied - on the "centrifugal" side = now the gravity side. Thus, sun movements can be hidden in tides as well.
The sun rising in the west and setting in the east presently may only take 45 minutes. At this 80% the speed of light, time is slowed 60% and light is dimmed 60% on the surface of the sun. Then the sun and moon be moved 180° and God let the gravity pull from the sun and moon now be applied on the side that was the "centrifugal" side, is almost the same as the gravity side. Likewise the sun rising suddenly in the east may take 40 or 45 minutes to complete 180° and the gravity pull from the sun and moon now be applied on the "centrifugal" side of earth, leaving no evidence to science in the historical traces of tides.
The sun dimmed 60% is equal to a 60% solar eclipse. The dimming of the sun is hardly noticeable.
There is a delay of two days after the new moon or full moon for the enormous mass of water to move to produce the spring tide, that has nothing to do with the season of spring.
Thus, if the sun and moon were to stand still in the sky with earth's rotation there would also be a delay of gravity in earth's rotation and the tide may appear almost normal = just 24 hours long.
The spring tide has nothing to do with spring. There are two high tides a lunar month = two spring tides. One when there is a full moon = the sun and moon at either end of the earth. The second on the new moon to begin or end the lunar month, when the moon and the sun are on the same side as the earth. Thus, two high tides, spring tides, a month.
Likewise the Neap tide on the first quarter moon or the last quarter moon, meaning the gravity pull, the gravity tide, counters itself producing a small tide.
The gravity affect of the earth's orbit makes the sun wobble by 10 centimetres a second and is barely perceptable.

Recording the first daily measurements of Earth's rotation shifts
Using a gyroscope to measure variations in Earth's rotation
Thus, only now are we able to measure acurately the differences in earth's rotation and wobble.
The Canadian Press, December 27, 2022: The tide pushed water levels at Point Aktinson in West Vancouver to a record height of 5.70 metres broke the previous record of 5.61 metres set in 1982. "The same King tide is forecasted for tomorrow."
That day off the coast of California the tide levels rose 7 meters.
"So, tides are enhanced when the Earth is closest to the Sun around January 2 of each year." Equals this first quarter moon, five day moon, Friday, January 7, 2022 AD. That is, the King Tide must begin on the new moon when the sun and moon were together, and the tide build in the next four or five days.
The new moon is Monday, January 31, 2022 at 9:46 PM. Both the sun and moon will be in alignment to produce the greatest tide. The tide builds from Monday = 4.8 meters, and 4.9 meters Tuesday to Thursday.
"High tides get higher, and low tides get lower. Global sea-level rise pushes high tides in only one direction – higher. So half of the 18.6-year lunar cycle counteracts the effect of sea-level rise on high tides, and the other half increases the effect,"
July 14, 2022, BC south coast sees lowest tides in years, cbc.ca Johanna Wagstaffe CBC News Senior Meteorologist:
"We are really seeing three different natural cycles all line up at the same time to bring us some of the lowest tides we have seen in a decade at least here on the south coast of British Columbia for the past few days.
The first one is what we call the spring tide, it has nothing to do with the season of spring. It is the most extreme tide in a month and is connected to the full moon which was this morning. The second cycle is a super moon, the moon is on its closest approach to earth this year. And finally we are getting close to the peak of an 18.6 year lunar cycle - also known as a stand still lunar cycle, even though it peaks in 2024 and 2025, but we are already seeing those impacts now. I was already out here for the extreme low tide at 1 PM today and it was dramatic. I have never seen it this low and I have never seen as many birds fight for feasts that were uncovered by the low tide.
"We are seeing these low tides found on the east side of the country. I checked your tide map and the next few days might be record low for some of you in Alantic Canada. You will have to check your local tide, the local phenomenon really plays a role in where we are seeing the records, but if you are by the ocean it will be real cool to check out over the next couple of days"
"because of an abnormally low tide, a phenomena caused by the high sun of the summer solstice aligning with a full moon closest in its orbit to earth, also called a moon in perigee."
"Rare low tides expose rocks that rode glaciers for hundred of kilometres." "the tide has retreated 15 to 20 centimetres below an average low tide-line" said Richard Dewey, associate director of science at Ocean Networks Canada"
"They are rare but not unexpected." Dewey said. "They often come together this time of year and particularily during summer solstice. The phenomena also creates a long tidal cyce. he said."
"Often we think about high tide and low tides being about six hours apart, but on Wednesday, we had one very low tide at midmorning and high tides were at midnight."
The low tide report is by Nina Grossman. Times colonist - July 16, 2022 / 8:00 am.
"the centrifugal force produced at any point in or on the earth will always be directed away from the moon" NOAA
"Low tide in Venice leaves city of canals nearly dry" 4 AM and 4 PM February 17, 2023. Today, February 18, 2023 is two days before the new moon. The moon is at near perigee, the closest part of its orbit from earth.
The long day may be 350° = almost 24 hours, that is 23:20 hours, the 10° = 40 minutes regained when the sun returned half an orbit later.
For the six day moon in Scorpius/Fang to appear above the setting sun in Virgo in spring for king Wan's dream, February 5, 1239 BC, means two years before should be a sun miracle on the crossing of the Jordan River February 4, 1241 BC.
Joshua's long day was on the Sabbath, on a Saturday, August 10, 1241 BC. Thus, Joshua did not give rest to Israel the Saturday of Joshua's long day, the great day of battle when Israel became a nation. And thus there remains a spiritual rest in Heaven.
August 10, 1241 BC be Joshua's long day and the sun revolved around the earth = day 19 of cycle 60. The sun returned on the same date, February 4, 1240 BC, day 18 of cycle 60.
There are 186.5 days from spring to fall, and 178 days from fall to spring = 365.24 days a year.
The widest part of the analemma is from March 1 to November 1 = 16 minutes ahead in late October and over 12 minutes behind in February. This is not from half an orbit to half an orbit. So, from + 16 minutes half an orbit to about 4 minutes = 20 minutes.
Half an orbit from the widest at November 1, = + 16 minutes, six months to May 1, = + 4 minutes.
Here you can see the analemma outline with dates, in a figure 8, on the globe. The winter half, the sun at the nearest earth, December at the bottom, and June at the top. The sun 8 minutes ahead at September, the sun 8 minutes behind at March = 16 minutes = one 24 hour day in one year. Earth must be sped up by 48 hours. Thus, multiply by two, 2 X 24 hours, is 2 X 16 = 32 minutes at the equinoxes. The winter half is the sped up half of the sped up 48 hours of earth in the reverse orbit.
There are two parts to the analemma, earth's eccentric orbit and the angle of earth's axis.
The sped up half orbit = the 23:20 hours and the 24:40 hours. The angle of earth's axis = moving the sun up or down after moving the sun to the other side of earth.
There are 365.24 days a year. Because earth turns 366 days in the sidereal year, but with earth's orbit there are 365 days, one day is lost to earth's rotation = one year for one 24 hour day = the difference. In the reverse orbit earth must be sped up 48 hours, or there would be 367 days a year. Now we have two days to apply to the orbit. In the analemma the time difference from the spring equinox to the fall equinox is 16 minutes, 8 + 8 as you can see on this globe. In the reverse orbit the orbit is sped up two days.
Then the time difference in the analemma in this situation is 2 X 16, two days, = 32 minutes = the sped up time of 186.5 days in one year of 365.24 days multiplied by 48 hours: 23:30 hours and 24:30 hours = 48 hours.
A globe 360° X 180° = 64,800°? No. 41,253° = 4 Pi steradians / 48 = Pi / 12 steradians. 41,253° / 4 = 13,128°.
You can see a square mesh to the bottom left = 1,000 miles by 1,000 miles. You can see the figure 8 analemma over Israel:
Here you can see the analemma again:
You can also see the path from the tropic of Capricorn 23° below the equator in the south, in the orange line from the bottom right to the equator on the left. The line continues to the tropic of Cancer 23° north of the equator.
The sped up earth orbit to make 365 days in a reverse orbit instead of 367 days = 48 hours sped up time, is spread out. Thus, 188 days / 365.24 days X 48 hours is the sped up half orbit = 23:20 hours = the missing time of 40 minutes = 24 hours.
This is similar to the analemma.
Yes, there is the equation of time of 32 minutes. But the sped up orbit of 48 hours in one year is more to do with spreading out that 48 hours evenly over earth's elliptical orbit.
Here you can see the eight minutes behind and the eight minutes ahead at the equinox = 16 minutes. At the widest the analemma is 32 minutes, but 16 minutes at the equinox. In the reverse orbit earth is sped up 48 hours = 2 X 24 hours. Thus, 2 X 16 minutes = 32 minutes: 24:30 hours and 23:30 hours = 48 hours sped up orbit. Thus, 188 days from February 4, 1241 BC to August 10, 1241 BC, there are two more days than 186 days to the equinoxes. Then this first half be 23:20 hours sped up orbit, and from August 10, 1241 BC to February 4, 1240 BC be 24:40 hours sped up orbit.
The sun is nearest the earth on January 3 and furthest from the earth on July 3. Thus, the sped up half orbit.
Moving the sun to the other side of the earth at the equinoxes means the sun does not need to be moved up or down to keep earth in the same season. Meaning also earth's orbit does not need to be tilted either when earth is at the equinoxes.
You will read here of many times the sun must move up or down to keep earth in the same season.
Yet earth's orbit is not tilted. The sun is moved to where the earth would be in six months = 180° = the zodiac. The plane of earth's orbit is the same as always = no tilt to earth's orbit. Only, the sun would appear to be above or below where it would normally be, and would keep earth in the same season, earth now orbiting the sun in reverse. The path of the sun through the constellations is the same, the same zodiac, only six months, 180° away, as earth orbited the sun in reverse.
Moving the sun up or down when moving the sun to the other side of earth, to keep earth in the same season, has the result the path of the sun is through the same stars as normal = the same path of the zodiak, only 180° away and in reverse as earth is in a reverse orbit.
Moving the sun to the other side of the earth at the same elevation in the sky to keep the same season on the earth, has the effect the sun passes through the same path of the zodiac as earth passes around the sun in the reverse orbit as the sun does in a normal orbi. Only the sun is now on the other side of the earth = six months away and earth in a reverse orbit.
The planets can all be moved back 180° each time, at each half orbit point.
Hebrews 4:8 "For if Joshua had given them rest, then would he not afterward have spoken of another day."
Joshua's long day may have been the Sabbath, Saturday, August 11, 1241 BC.
1 Kings 20:29 "And they pitched one over against the other seven days. And so it was, that in the seventh day the battle was joined: and the children of Israel slew of the Syrians an hundred thousand footmen in one day."
Earth orbits the sun faster when it is nearer the sun in winter. So if you can picture, this applied to the 24 hours sped up half orbit is also 32 minutes shorter = a 23 hours 30 minutes more sped up first half orbit and a 24 hours 30 minutes more sped up second half orbit = 48 hours. The half orbit is 186.5 days. Thus, 188 days is 1.5 days longer.
Thus, at 8 minutes a day sped up reverse orbit (48 X 60)/365.24 = 8 minutes a day. Thus, the sped up second half reverse orbit has 24 hours 40 minutes missing time = sped up time, and the first half reverse orbit has 23 hours 20 minutes missing time equaling the two extra days in a complete reverse orbit. Thus, the reverse year is 365.24 days and not 367.24 days.
The analemma from a sun dial "It reaches + or - 16 minutes = 32 minutes maximum difference. This is different than spreading out the sped up 48 hours evenly over earth's orbit.
The missing time from earth's sped up orbit that is more than 24 hours, is the missing time of the fall/winter half reverse orbit.
The missing time in the analemma adds up to 32 minutes.
But this is different than the 32 minutes of spreading out 48 hours sped up orbit to 24:30 hours and 23:30 hours to equal 48 hours.
Joshua's long day was an exception because from Sunday to Sabbath is 188 days, from Sunday, February 4, 1241 BC to Saturday, August 10, 1241 BC. 188 days not 186 days.
For the typical 186 days, this equals 23 hours and 30 minutes, and 24 hours and 30 minutes. Two, half reverse orbits, over fall and winter, together add up to one hour of missing time that must equal one hour of elapsed time. The sun circling earth very near the speed of light, earth in darkness for one hour, would amount to one hour of elapsed time on earth. Together the net result would be no net missing time on earth.
But from February 4, 1241 BC to August 10, 1241 BC is 188 days. 188 / 365.24 X 48 hours = 24:42 hours and 23: 38 hours = the missing day of 24 hours, and also the missing 40 minutes.
The sun and moon create tides. The sun has a tide 46% of the tide of the moon. Simply, if the tides moved with the sun and moon, the tides would match the day time = the sun, and the moon would match the position of the moon. If the sun were moved at or very near the speed of light there would be no gravity pull from the sun as well as no light. If a gravity pull was left at the point the sun started moving, that gravity pull would equal the usual solar tide. God would probably go further and leave solar and lunar tides at their expected times. And thus, there would also be no evidence of sun movements in tides either because the day would match the tide = gravity pull.
"the saros cycle and nodal return are problematic for a number of reasons.."
"Geochemical records from Elk Lake, northwestern Minnesota, showed three peaks of AI accumulation rates at 7740 BP (Sothis year 1038 from 6828 BC = 5790 BC = 1950 AD back 7740 years BP to 5790 BC), 5900 (3950 BC = the Armenian Sothis 3907 BC and 3945 BC is 38 years about this 3950 BC), and 4240 BP (2290 BC when Jacob died) BP (Before Present 1950 AD using radio carbon dating)
researchgate,net
There were 223 lunar months in 18 years 11 days called a Saros cycle. Likewise there were 19 year cycles on the same date every 19 years = less the 11 days in the next year, year 19 = the same date.
When the sun rose in the west and set in the east there may be an affect on tides simply because of the movement of gravity, and that tide could be different pulling west to east. Likewise, when the sun suddenly ascended in the east the tide should be much quicker.
Nevertheless, simply leaving the gravity pull with the sun and moon would equal the day and the tide exactly. There may be no way to tell that the sun and moon stood still for a long time while earth rotated. The daylight and the sun and the lunar and solar tide would match exactly. Even the sun and moon travelling west to east, that is the sun rising in the west and setting in the east, may not leave a trace of anything unusual in the solar and lunar tides.
There are two high tides a day, every 12 hours. Simply the tide nearest the moon and the tide on the far side of the moon, the "centrifugal tide".
There is a lunar tide every 12 hours. The solar tide is the same every 24 hours, but is counted as a variation of the lunar tide.
The lunar tide is one hour thirteen minutes later every day.
The tide nearest the moon is from gravity. The next tide 12 hours later is from "centrifugal" force, not gravity.
The next tide is when the moon is furthest away 12 hours later. This bulge is slightly smaller than the tide nearest the moon.
There are two high tides a month called the spring tide. There is the well known tide, the spring tide, at the full moon. However, there is also the spring tide of the new moon that is even more pronounced. Both take effect 24 hours or 48 hours after the full or new moon. There is also the first quarter moon and the last quarter moon when the moon is at right angles to the sun. These tides cancel out each other and are known as the small tides.
Some sun miracles were on the first quarter moon; the sun returning one and a half an orbits after Joshua's long day, on the six day moon, February 5, 1239 BC and the darkened sun = the sun revolving around the earth at or very near the speed of light, at the fall of Jerusalem, September 7, 591 BC = the seven day moon. A solar eclipse can only be on a new moon.
There is a prograde tide and a retrograde tide. Thus, when God moved the sun, and moon, west to east, the resulting tide may be like the naturally occurring retrograde tide.
When God moved the sun and the moon, He would also move the sun up or down to keep earth in the same season. This should produce the same effect as if it was a normal day on earth = the gravitational pull should be the same. Likewise, for the moon, moving the moon up or down and the gravitational pull from the moon should be the same.
If God moved the sun to the other side of earth on the spring or fall equinox, He would not need to move the sun up or down.
There are two high tides and two low tides a day, as you can see in this diagram.
There is the prograde lunar tide closest to the moon. Then there is the tide furthest from the moon from the "centrifugal" force. Then there is the retrograde tide of the sun, the side nearest the sun and the "centrifugal" side furthest from the sun. The solar tide is 46% of the lunar tide. Mostly it is the lunar tide that is spoken of.
The moon moves west to east more and more each day. That is, the moon rises 50 minutes later each evening. Thus, the prograde direction of the moon, and the retrograde direction of the day, of the sun.
The sun at the top left appears to travel west each day. The moon at the top right moves gradually the other way, about a hour a day; 24 hours / 29.5 days. = 50 minutes later the moon rises each day. Likewise, the "centrifugal" force opposite the gravity pull = 180° for both the moon and the sun.
Lunar and Solar Torques on the Oceanic Tides, last page.
Here you see a low tide in north California, from Sea Scapes at Trinidad Beach. The high tide goes to the green growth as seen on this rock. There are some millions of daily tides back to Bible times. There must be some way to detect the remnants of each high tide.
The effect of gravity is immediate. However, it takes more than 24 hours to build the high tide of the full moon. On the other side of earth the high tide is not from gravity, but from "centrifugal" force. Then, perhaps the sun rising in the west would produce a west to east "centrifugal" force that would stop immediately east of China. The sun suddenly then would move west to east on Sunday, the resurrection, April 5, 33 AD. Thus, changes in the sun and moon movements would need control to keep the tides in control.
Days equal dates on the calendar of orbital simulations. Tides, including the height they would have been, also must match dates because the moon must move with the sun. The duration of the solar and lunar tides would be shorter or longer or reverse on the day the sun and moon travelled 180° or more west or east. Solar tides in a reverse orbit would be identical to the day and date of course. Days must have been 8 minutes shorter to keep 365 days in the year.
(365 X 8) / 60 = 48.66 hours of sped up time in a reverse orbit year.
That is, 4 minutes less daylight and 4 minutes less night each day. Also, the solar tide would progress 1° east each day instead of west in a reverse orbit, progressing backward.
The orbits of the solar system cannot have matched continuous time even after the counter miracle of a sudden sunset because reverse orbits must have been 48 hours short to keep the 365 day year. Also, if there were 365 days a year in the reverse orbit there would be no trace that there was a reverse orbit.
"The axis wobble has two major cycles with the annual tide circling the planet every twelve months and the Chandler tide about every 14.29 months...Gravitational tides simply add several new cycles into the equation because of the earth's spin rate, moon's elliptical orbit around the earth and earth's elliptical orbit around the sun."
The Earth's Shifting Axis, by Mac B. Strain. p.108
The Chinese wrote that the Yin Yang "was as day emerges from night and as low tide follows high tide".
The Cambridge Encyclopedia of China
Thus when God moved the moon with the sun and the tides followed this stable pattern remained and the Chinese associated this stable pattern with the Yin Yang. All may change but Jesus never. All this can be managed in a reverse orbit of the sun, there is no difference in tides in a reverse orbit.
"While high tide occurs twice each day, the high tide that occurs at the furthest point from the moon is generally less pronounced than when that area faces the moon."
"if the moon were the only thing causing tides, there would be only one high and one low tide per day." "Centrifugal" force "causes the waters to be thrown into a bulge on the other side of the earth as well." "the sun does'nt affect the tide noticeably..but when the moon is aligned with the sun"..during first quarter or last quarter moon the sun and moon are at nearly right angles..and each cancels out the gravitational pull of the other...neap tides are particularily weak tides."
How things Work - the Moon and Tides, by David Young.
Spring tide = the sun and moon either together or opposite each other = the high tide. Neap tide = the first quarter or last quarter moon and the tides are at right angles. Thus, tide records during sun miracles, often during spring tides = full moon and new moon, and neap tides = 7th day moon and 21st day moon, may not show anything very unusual.
The astronomical origin of tides You will see Neap tides, such as a third quarter moon like August 10, 1241 BC, or a first quarter moon, February 5, 1239 BC, cancel eachother.
The expectation that science can detect tides thousands of years ago to the detail of sun miracles may be over rated.
There are 24 verses about waves in the Bible, these six in the New Testament. God controls the wind and the sea. If God can control the waves He can control the tides.
Matthew 8:24 "And, behold, there arose a great tempest in the sea, insomuch that the ship was covered with the waves: but he was asleep."
Matthew 14:24 "But the ship was now in the midst of the sea, tossed with waves: for the wind was contrary."
Mark 4:37 "And there arose a great storm of wind, and the waves beat into the ship, so that it was now full."
Luke 21:25 "And there shall be signs in the sun, and in the moon, and in the stars; and upon the earth distress of nations, with perplexity; the sea and the waves roaring;"
Acts 27:41 "And falling into a place where two seas met, they ran the ship aground; and the forepart stuck fast, and remained unmoveable, but the hinder part was broken with the violence of the waves."
Jude 1:13 "Raging waves of the sea, foaming out their own shame; wandering stars, to whom is reserved the blackness of darkness for ever."
Today, June 16, 2018, there is a very low tide on the BC west coast. This is the new moon, that means the side nearest the sun and furthest from the sun bulge and between this bulge is a low tide, a flattening effect between the high tides. The moon is also at its most northern point in its orbit and at its nearest point in its orbit this year to produce this effect.
"But if they do agree with his prediction - if it should be discovered and submitted that two revolutions of the lunar apes are necessary, in order that it may advance through all the signs of the zodiac, this position will have been reached, as a result of this crucial test, that apparently incompatible, not to say impossible, conditions are found to coexist - for how can the same relations make simultaneously an entire revolution in space when compared from one point, and only a half revolution when compared from another?"
Astronomical Investigations; the Cosmical Relations of the Revolution of the Lunar Apsides. Oceanic Tides, Introduction, p.21
Wimps = weakly interacting massive particles pass through our solar system, so that for half a year earth's orbit heads into their path, and likewise for half a year earth heads away from their path. When earth had flowed into a reverse orbit of the sun, that would mean the other half orbit would head into the direction of the wimps. Of course we can hardly detect them now, let alone back then. And there is almost no trace once the particles have passed through.
To measure the speed of a spiral galaxy's rotation, the measurement is made on an edge wise galaxy not the face. Like this measurement of Wimps, the speed part of the spiral galaxy moves away from us and toward us gives the speed the galaxy rotates.
Over perhaps a dozen 360° circles of the sun very near the speed of light around the earth over thousands of years, in Old Testament times, of one hour each = 12 hours the sun is younger than the earth. The sun standing still in the sky at 1/30 the speed of light for 24 hours would add up to a few minutes of slowed time on the sun. Although, at 1/30th the speed of light Relativity means only minutes of lost time, over many of these sun miracles even minutes add up.
Thus, the darkness at the fall of Jerusalem September 7, 591 BC and the darkness when Jesus was on the cross at noon April 3, 33 AD must both be the sun darkened in its going forth (at or very near the speed of light). It takes almost an hour for the sun to move around the earth at the speed of light. Two events, 2 X 360° = two hours.
Deuteronomy 28:29 "And thou shalt grope at noondayH6672, as the blind gropeth in darkness, and thou shalt not prosper in thy ways: and thou shalt be only oppressed and spoiled evermore, and no man shall save thee."
Job 5:14 "They meet with darkness in the daytime, and grope in the noondayH6672 as in the night."
Dark at noon = darkness at the fall of Jerusalem and darkness when Jesus was on the cross at noon. Dark at the brightest time of day.
H6672 צֹהַר tsôhar tso'-har From H6671; a light (that is, window); dual double light, that is, noon: - midday, noon (-day, -tide), window. Total KJV occurrences: 24
The full tide - the spring tide on the new moon tide at noon would be a full tide.
The full tide - the spring tide on the full moon at noon would be a full tide.
In total, the sun could be about 12 hours younger than earth, 12 times one hour, 12 times the sun was darkened = the sun is 12 hours younger, or the sun is at least 2 hours younger than the earth darkness at noon = September 7, 591 BC and April 3, 33 AD.
From the lunar eclipse, (barely visible in Israel) October 7, 32 AD to the lunar eclipse (partial in Israel) = half an orbit, April 3, 33 AD = at 7:30 PM at sunset on the day of Jesus' crucifixion.
Sun miracles may happen every six months in a reverse orbit year.
Or the sped up earth of 48 hours sped up reverse orbit add up the sped up hours to be countered by the sun standing still on one side of the earth = 48 hours longer days each reverse orbit year.
The sun may be moved on these half orbit dates:
The first sun miracle Yom Kippur, October 7, 29 AD, followed by the Passover April 7, 30 AD.
The next sun miracle the last day of the feast of tabernacles, on the 22d day moon, October 7, 30 AD, followed by a sun miracle the 25th day moon, April 7, 31 AD.
The next sun miracle the new moon, October 7, 31 AD, followed by a sun miracle followed by a sun miracle on the 7th day of the first month, April 7, 32 AD.
The next sun miracle the full moon, October 7, 32 AD = the first day of tabernacles, followed by a sun miracle on the Passover, Jesus' crucifixion, April 3, 33 AD.
Thus, Jesus began his ministry on Yom Kippur, Friday, October 7, 29 AD.
That is, from the first day of the feast of tabernacles, the full moon in the seventh month, this October 7, 32 AD to Jesus' sacrifice April 3, 33 AD is half an orbit. God may moved the sun October 7, 32 AD and earth flow into a reverse orbit, then God may move the sun back April 3, 33 AD and earth flow out of the reverse orbit.
Or, God may move the sun 7 X 12 hours, 84 hours, October 7, 29 AD and back again 7 X 12 hours, 84 hours, April 3, 33 AD.
Image from TheSky Software Bisque April 3, 7:30PM Jerusalem 33 AD:
Here you can see the lunar eclipse visible in Israel at 7:30 PM, the night of Jesus' crucifixion, at moon rise, would be visible in China:
In comparison the partial lunar eclipse at Kelowna BC Canada, Tuesday, September 18, 2024 AD:
From lunar eclipse, October 19, 31 AD to lunar eclipse (not visible in Israel) April 14, 32 AD. Sun miracles may have occurred on these lunar eclipse days and be mistaken for just naturally occurring lunar eclipses. From eclipse to eclipse are exactly half orbits.
These two 30 minute segments may be like two ministers of the gospel speaking for 30 minutes each, for a full hour.
However, we are calculating the sped up 48 hours a full year, and the half point portion of that reverse orbit. Thus, two half winter orbits have 30 more minutes sped up time than 24 hours = one full hour = the hour the sun God moved at the speed of light = time stopped on the sun for one hour.
From the day of Atonement, Friday, Yom Kippur, October 3, 32 AD is half an orbit of 182 days to the Passover and Jesus' sacrifice, April 3, 33 AD.
John 7:2 "Now the Jews' feast of tabernacles was at hand."
The feast of tabernacles was five days after Yom Kippur.
The sped up year is 363.24 days long in time, 365.24 days in sunrises.
The sun would remain at the back of the Israelites as they pursued the enemy to the west into the Ajalon Valley.
Thus, God may have moved the sun from inertia to 40 million miles hour to pass west east as the sun usually passes east west that day, and slowed the movement of the sun at noon to 20 million miles per hour to stand still in the sky for 24 hours.
However, that day may have started out as a normal day. Then God must have moved the sun at 20 million miles an hour to stand still in the sky for Joshua for 24 hours and move the sun 360°.
Possibly God hastened the sun from noon to set in the east at 40 million miles per hour again and stop below the eastern horizon so there be dark for a few hours.
Thus perhaps God stopped the sun from moving at noon, because the sun was moving west to east.
Or, God simply moved the sun, at 20 million miles per hour, to make the sun stand still in the sky. Then the sun would appear to stop in the middle of the sky for 12 or 24 hours. Earth already in a reverse orbit means the sun should stand still at noon over Israel for 24 hours for Joshua's long day.
God may have intended the sun to move 3 X 180° east to stand still at noon for 36 hours when the sun would return February 4, 1240 BC = one year after the sun moved 180° west, to the other side of earth and earth in a reverse orbit, on the crossing of the Jordan, February, 4, 1241 BC.
Instead, God moved the sun 2 X 180° with earth's rotation to make the sun stand still at noon for 24 hours. There must be 48 hours of net long days in a reverse orbit so there would be 365 days and not 367 days a year = the 24 more hours either on Joshua's long day or one year and six months later on king Wan's dream.
Psalm 19:4 "Their line is gone out through all the earth, and their words to the end of the world. In them hath he set a tabernacle for the sun,
19:5 Which is as a bridegroom coming out of his chamber, and rejoiceth as a strong man to run a race."
"Psalm 19 imagines the sun racing across the sky like a warriour running on his path, and that mythological imagery is probably behind the verb "hasten" here."
The Hebrew Bible, by Robert Alter, PROPHETS, p.39.
Romans 10:18 "But I say, Have they not heard? Yes verily, their sound went into all the earth, and their words unto the ends of the world."
This is not mythological imagery. Both Psalm 19 and Joshua 10:13 picture the sun as moving.
Nevertheless, Joshua's long day August 10, 1241 BC may have been a normal day. Only the earth probably was already in a reverse orbit from February 4, 1241 BC.
Even the sun miracle of Joshua's long day, a normal orbit, a normal day when Joshua made his request, one and a half orbits later was king Wan's dream - to start with Joshua's long day.
And also, Hezekiah's sign, the sun passing west to east did mean the sun was moving.
Genesis 37:9 "And he dreamed yet another dream, and told it his brethren, and said, Behold, I have dreamed a dream more; and, behold, the sun and the moon and the eleven stars made obeisance to me."
Genesis 41:45 "And Pharaoh turned the name of Joseph, and called him by the Egyptian language, The Saviour of the World; and he gave him to Joseph a wife, Asenath, the daughter of Potipherah, a priest of Heliopolis, that is, The City of the Sun. And so Joseph went out into the land of Egypt."
Thus, this April 1, 2315 BC that was when the sun stood still for nine days when Yao was made emperor of China, equal the sun standing still on Egypt the day Joseph was made governor over the land of Egypt - Potipherah being a priest of the City of the Sun. This Heliopolis be the home of the Bennu bird, the phoenix, that moved the sun to the other side of the earth.
Even Joseph when he was 17 and dreamed in 2328 BC knew God moved the sun at certain times. Joshua too would know God was moving the sun from west to east that day, or that this was half an orbit after a sun miracle when the sun should move back.
Genesis 37:9 "And he dreamed yet another dream, and told it his brethren, and said, Behold, I have dreamed a dream more; and, behold, the sun and the moon and the eleven stars made obeisance to me."
His request was understood as to stop the sun, either to slow the sun's west to east movement that day, or to make the sun stand still in the sky at noon that day for 12 or 24 hours.
Thus the sun and moon hastened not to go down because the sun moving west to east was moving around the sun at twice the rate for the sun to stand still in the sky. That is, God must move the sun 2 X 20 million miles per hour for the sun to rise in the west, and or, for the sun to set in the east at the same rate = a 12 hour day, as the sun normally passes east to west.
Joshua knew God was moving the sun, because normally as earth rotates, the sun travels east to west, and yet the sun is standing still.
Then God must have moved the sun in the other direction 20 million miles an hour, or more, to suddenly rise in the east and ascend the sky. Earth must complete 360° around the sun in reverse in one year less two days, 48 hours, because of the sped up orbit.
Thus, the reverse orbit started Sunday February 4, 1241 BC the sun moved back Saturday, August 10, 1241 BC on Joshua's long day, and the sun move either 360°, or back again and earth continue in the reverse orbit to king Wan's dream two years later on February 5, 1239 BC. Thus, from February 4 to February 5 is a 365 day year and a 366 day year.
In Yao's canon and Yao's sun miracle = the fulfillment of Joseph's dream when Joseph was made governor over Egypt, from 2315 BC it was stated a full year is 366 days = the sun standing still for 10 days and returning 366 days later.
There were two days worth, 48 hours, of longer days to give the normal 365.24 days of time of a normal year because of earth's sped up two days, 48 hours to give 365.24 days.
Thus, at the end of the reverse orbit year the sun return. That is while God moved the sun with earth's rotation at noon in Israel for 12 hours, God moved the sun back, and earth flowed out of the reverse orbit of the sun.
Then the sun stand still at noon on Israel for 12 hours while the sun on China stand still at sunset below the western horizon for 12 hours on king Wan's dream, February 5, 1239 BC..
From sudden sunrise Saturday, February 4, 1241 BC = leap year and a February 29, to one full year to February 4, 1240 BC, and one full year more plus one day to February 5, 1239 BC.
"Crack making on day xinmao, 28, Ji divined: The King should host Jupiter. It will not rain. Divined: It should be 2 penned up sheep. 2nd month."
Heji, 25148
February 5, 1239 BC is day 24 of cycle 60, one more year later February 5, 1238 BC, is day 28 of cycle 60. Jupiter was to be beside the sun that day. King Wan records the sun miracle in the first month. The emperor of China may have recorded the sun miracle the same date, February 5, 1238 BC as the 2nd month.
Nevertheless, king Wan's dream most likely was the sixth day of the first month, February 5, 1239 BC. Then, there must be a sun miracle February 4, 1240 BC one year earlier and equal the battle of Merom in Joshua 11, and the battle of Debora and Barak in Judges 4 and 5.
The five planets were in conjunction in Fang/Scorpius above the setting sun, in Virgo, at the beginning of king Wan's dream probably February 5, 1239 BC. Jupiter in its orbit, if Jupiter did not move 180° at the first sun movement, February 4, 1241 BC. Then when the sun moved back 180° February 4, 1240 BC and one year later on king Wan's dream, February 5, 1239 BC.
Then on king Wan's dream, February 5, 1239 BC, Jupiter would also move 180° and appear just above the sun in its normal position when the sun set, after 12 hours of sunset, just above the sun. Thus, Jupiter would move 180° from Scorpius to Aries, February 5, 1239 BC.
February 5, 1239 BC Jupiter was not as near to the sun, as seen from earth, but was near Saturn = both in Scorpius / Fang. Thus, perhaps the reason for the Chinese to feel moved to sacrifice to Jupiter.
Then the sun returned 365 days after it first moved perhaps at midnight February 16, 1241 BC, or more likely February 4, 1241 BC and the sun move back two years later February 5, 1239 BC.
Thus, there is no net missing time and solar eclipse paths recorded are as we would expect them to be working backwards in physics before and after sun movements.
In the time of Hwang-te (2656 BC), there had been a prophesy to the effect that 'the chief of the west should become king in a certain kea-tze year'."
The Chinese Classics. p.142.
There were sun miracles on a keatze year, such as 1196 BC when king Wan received the bright appointment of Heaven, There were sun miracles on a keatze day, such as on May 8, 1174 BC.
East Asian Astronomy. p.240:
2513 BC:
"The Hong fan zhuan says: 'Calendrical records began with Emperor Zhuan Xu' Superior Epoch of Grand Commencement in the year yanmeng shetige, in the month bizou, on the new moon day jisi [6], the Beginning of Spring. when the seven luminaries gathered at the fifth du of YINGSHI [LM[."

1576 BC corrected 1699 BC:
"In the 10th year of emperor Gui [of Xia] the five planets moved in criss-cross fashion, in the middle of the night stars fell like rain and the earth quaked. The E and Loh became dry."
The date being wrong, not 1576 BC, means more than likely this was a sun miracle. The planets do not normally move in a criss-cross fashion = the planets moved out of the way of the sun would make them move in a criss-cross fashion. "stars fell like rain" = meteors would be seen after sunset more readily than after midnight in the reverse orbit = earth in a reverse orbit against the asteroids swirling the other way. Emperor Gui or Kwei's first year was 1708 BC = 1700 years to Jesus' birth. "the earth shook" = the sun being moved around the earth. "the E and Loh became dry" = a change in the weather patterns with the sun movement and earth in a reverse orbit.
Here you see four of the five planets visible after sunset in December 23, 1699 BC = the tenth month = December, the tenth year from 1708 BC = 1699 BC, of emperor Gui / Kwei:
For a comparison of the planets in July of 1699 BC. The planets criss-cross, but this is not unusual or noteworthy.

Note the date should be May, 205 BC.
The date of 206 BC is one year after 207 BC = 200 years before Jesus would be born September 12, 7 BC. Likewise, this was the year Lui P'ang won the war and began the Han dynasty began - possibly with the help of an omen of a sun miracle.

Another conjunction in the year of the conquest of Wu in 1174 BC:
May 28, 1059 BC = May 8, 1174 BC.
Here you can see Jupiter, Saturn and Venus just before dawn on May 8, 1174 BC:
Many records of sun miracles record the five planets in conjunction and moving in reverse as they were moved out of the path of the sun.
"In his, emperor Kin, 4th year, 1736 BC, he made the music of the West. The cheif of Keun-woo moved to Heu."
The Chinese Classics. p.123.
1736 BC was a keatze year from 2636 BC. The emperor sometimes moved his capitol when there was the omen of a sun miracle. This was four years before his 8th year when the sun stood still for 10 days.
For a sun miracle to fall on a keatze day the chances are 4 times a reverse orbit year, the first 180° movement of the sun, half an orbit later the sun may move 180° and earth flow out of the reverse orbit of the sun. Then probably the sun move 180° the next day and earth flow into the reverse orbit of the sun. Then a half orbit later, one year after the first sun movement, the sun move back and earth flow out of the reverse orbit of the sun.
The half orbit from the fall to the spring equals about 180 days, thus two days may be the same keatze day. Then, with many sun miracles the chances there would be some on a keatze day is pretty good.
In Huangdi's 20th year 2636 BC: "When he was sitting in a boat in the Yuen-hoo, above its junction with the Lo, there came together phoenixes, male and female."
This union of the sun and moon was the first kea-tze year and the first kea-tze day, kea-tze means number one, on the new moon when the sun and moon moved 180° back to Pisces and earth flowed out of the reverse orbit, January 27, 2636 BC. This prophesy was for the new moon to occur on day one of sixty when the sun and moon should move back 180° carried by the red phoenix. Thus all Chinese dates of year 60 and day 60 date from January 27, 2636 BC.
Jesus would be 12 years old on a keatze year from 2636 BC to 5 AD. Jesus born in 7 BC would be 12 in 5 AD.
The year was to begin on a keatze day, to try and make this day one of cycle 60 the first day of the year.
The number 37 occurrs often in the Chinese records. So a keatze year of one, and a sun miracle 37 years later on a gengzi year 37 may mark sun miracles 37 years apart, perhaps pointing to the 38.5 years of Jesus' life.
Luke 2:42 "And when he was twelve years old, they went up to Jerusalem after the custom of the feast."
Luke 2:46 "And it came to pass, that after three days they found him in the temple, sitting in the midst of the doctors, both hearing them, and asking them questions.
2:47 And all that heard him were astonished at his understanding and answers."
Luke 2:49 "And he said unto them, How is it that ye sought me? wist ye not that I must be about my Father's business?"
2 Kings 21:1 "Manasseh was twelve years old when he began to reign, and reigned fifty and five years in Jerusalem. And his mother's name was Hephzibah."
Manasseh born in 700 BC, reigned from 688 BC, lived from 700 BC 55 years to 645 BC. There was a solar eclipse in China in 645 BC that does not match any eclipse date. 645 BC equals darkness in China, perhaps the darkness like when Jesus was on the cross. There was recorded a solar eclipse for about 645 BC when there was none for that year, or years previous or years after. The full moon, and Passover, Friday, March 19, 645 BC = 38 years in reverse to 607 BC.
"In his (King Seang) 3d year (647 BC), it rained gold in Tsin."
The Chinese Classics. p.163.
"In his (King Ching) 34th year (1135 BC) it rained gold in Heen-yang." Note the character for Heen-yang on the upper left is like the character for Lu Yang (about 464 BC); who motioned with his spear and the sun rose in the west three solar mansions:"
The Chinese Classics. p.148.
Here you see the character for Lu Yang, the character for yang is the same - upper left:
Meteor showers were commonly recorded with sun movements. The earth flowing into a reverse orbit against meteors would cause meteor showers visible after sunset instead of typically being mostly visible after midnight.
King Ching's first year 1168 BC = 1200 years to Jesus' sacrifice. "his 34th year" is like Jesus beginning his ministry when he began to be about 35 years old.
There are Chinese solar eclipse records on oracle bones - the day is given but not the year: day 53 of cycle 60 = March 4, 1250 BC and day 10 of cycle 60 = May 26, 1217 BC are on the same day of 60 from January 27, 2636 BC, no days missing, and are exactly as we would have predicted them to be back from the present to any time in the past.
However, the year is not given. The solar eclipse records in the Chinese Classics from day 28 of cycle 60, on September 6, 776 BC, match to the day of 60 and the year of 60. The solar eclipse records in Egypt from 1417 BC to 1407 BC on match the day and year in the sothis cycle. Thus, the Egyptian solar eclipse records predate Joshua's long day, August 10, 1241 BC.
"In his, Seaou Sin, first year, which was Keah-woo (31st of cycle 60), when he came to the throne, he dwelt in Yin."
The Chinese Classics, p135.
Not 1286 BC, but 120 years further back = 1406 BC. Thus a sun miracle in 1407 BC may have been an omen for the Chinese to kill their emperor, Pwan-Kang.
The fact the days of 60 have no days missing means God had to have guided the Chinese to record days, partial days and long days. The sun miracles would be sometimes confusing how to count the day.
Genesis 8:22 "While the earth remaineth, seedtime and harvest, and cold and heat, and summer and winter, and day and night shall not cease."
Earth in a reverse orbit the seasons progress spring, summer, fall, winter the same way as they do now.
Psalm 74:9 "We see not our signs: there is no more any prophet: neither is there among us any that knoweth how long."
The signs must be sun miracles.
Psalm 84:11 "For the LORD God is a sun and shield: the LORD will give grace and glory: no good thing will he withhold from them that walk uprightly."
Daniel 4:2 "I thought it good to shew the signs and wonders that the high God hath wrought toward me.
4:3 How great are his signs! and how mighty are his wonders! his kingdom is an everlasting kingdom, and his dominion is from generation to generation."
Daniel 6:27 "He delivereth and rescueth, and he worketh signs and wonders in heaven and in earth, who hath delivered Daniel from the power of the lions."
Psalm 74:16 "The day is thine, the night also is thine: thou hast prepared the light and the sun.
74:17 Thou hast set all the borders of the earth: thou hast made summer and winter."
The year of Noah's flood, 3307 BC, most likely the sun moved and earth was in a reverse orbit. Thus, the promise in this Genesis 8:22 after Noah's flood was necessary.
With earth in a reverse orbit, and the sun up or down = a shift in orbit not a shift of the earth, the seasons continue just the same as they normally would. The sun may rise in the west and set in the east and the sun may stay in the sky for even nine days = 9 X 12 hours, yet day and night would not cease. Earth continued to rotate, there was still day and night.
Chinese solar eclipse records are usually dependable. Often the day is right but the year is misplaced one year before or one year after.
Oracle bone records give the day of cycle 60, but not the year. Most oracle bones were recorded in the 50 year reign of Wuding, 1393 BC to 1344 BC.
Some oracle bones were made up to emperor Wanting = Wending who reigned from the solar eclipse of March 4, 1250 BC 15 years to 1235 BC. That is from 1393 BC to 1235 BC.
Given King Tut's first year in 1407 BC = the death of his father Akhenaten and Wuding's first year not 1273 BC but 120 years further back in 1393 BC:
King Tut reigned 9 years from 1407 BC to 1398 BC. Pharaoh Ay reigned 4 years to 1393 BC.
Then Pharaoh Horemheb's first year equal China emperor Wuting's first year 1393 BC.
The last year of Pharaoh Ay should be 1393 BC = the first year of Pharaoh Horemheb and the first year of emperor Wuding.
Ramses II reigned 66 years from 1357 BC to 1291 BC.
Sun miracles 38 years apart, pointing to Jesus' life of 38 years, may have been an omen to change emperors and Pharaohs.
Then Pharaoh Seti I reigned 11 years from 1368 BC to 1357 BC. From 1368 BC to Jesus' sacrifice is 1400 years.
Pharaoh Horemheb may have reigned 23 years from this 1393 BC to Ramses I in 1370 BC.
Merneptah's 10 year reign from 1281 BC back 1291 BC, Ramses II 66 year reign to 1291 BC back to 1357 BC.
Ramses II is recorded to have reigned to his 67th year = 66 years, from 1357 BC to 1291 BC.
Ramses II's 52d year possibly in 1306 BC; 1307 BC is 1300 years to Jesus' birth in 7 BC.
Moses was 80 at the Exodus in 1281 BC = Moses born in 1361 BC when Pharaoh Seti I had all Hebrew boys born to be killed. 4 years later Ramses II became Pharaoh in 1357 BC and most likely the practice ended.
Seti I accession date III Shemu 24 and Ramses II accession date III Shemu 27 = either a complete 11 years or 12 years for the reign of Seti I within these three days.
Ramses II accession date of III Season of the harvest, day 27 - May 31, 1279 BC. Putting dates 76 years further back = May 31, 1355 BC. Rather 76 years further back than 1281 BC = 1357 BC. Ramses II may have reigned from 1357 BC - a 66 year reign - to 1291 BC.
Nevertheless, the date 1279 BC for the death of Seti I lead to the error of 1203 BC for the death of Merneptah = 10 years back to 1213 BC and 66 years of Ramses II back to 1279 BC = mistaken dates = Merneptah died at the Exodus in April of 1281 BC = 76 years back to Ramses II first year in 1357 BC.
Ramses II may have reigned into his 67th year, from 1357 BC to 1291 BC. Then his father Seti I may have reigned 11 years from 1368 BC to 1357 BC. Perhaps there was a sun miracle, an omen, for Seti I to become Pharaoh in 1368 BC = 1400 years to Jesus' sacrifice.
The assumed dates:
Ramses II accession date of III Shemu 27:
Seti I accession date III Shemu 24:
Ramses II must have reigned 66 years to 1291 BC. The mistake of the death of Merneptah in 1203 BC, his 10 years, Ramses II 66 years is this 1279 BC.
Pharaoh Merneptah died about April 3, 1281 BC. Ten years back to the death of Ramses II, 1291 BC, 66 years back to the death of Seti I in 1357 BC.
The father of Ramses II may have had a reign of 11 years, from 1368 BC to 1357 BC. A sun miracle in 1368 BC may have been an omen to end the reign of his father Ramese I = 1400 years to Jesus' sacrifice.
This would mean Ramses II began his reign in 1357 BC.
There were 38 year cycles = Jesus' perfect life of 38 years. Perhaps from 1282 BC to 1244 BC; from 1245 BC to 1207 BC = 1200 years to Jesus' birth in 7 BC. 1207 BC was a seven year sabbath year. The 49 year jubile was in 1242 BC and 5 X 7 = 35 years, 1242 BC - 35 = 1207 BC.
Days and years of cycle 60 from January 26, 2636 BC are consistent for all Chinese solar eclipse records. Only a few solar eclipse records in the Chinese Classics are missing the year of cycle 60.
There in the Chinese Classics in the list of solar eclipse records, there are some that were not visible in China. These could be sun miracles instead.
Sometimes the eclipse record is out one year, such as February 16, 505 BC, should be the year 504 BC, February 10 = the third day of the month Adar when the temple was finished. The correct year given in the Chinese Classics was 504 BC.
From January 26, 2636 BC, are 60 day cycles and 60 year cycles. This February 10, 504 BC is the 33d year of cycle 60 = 2636 BC - 32 years = the current year of the solar eclipse that was not a solar eclipse February 10, 504 BC. 504 BC + 32 = 536 BC = the 60 year cycle. The solar eclipse for February 16, 505 BC would be the 32d year of cycle 60 and there is no way to make 505 BC the 33d year of cycle 60.
Year 33 of cycle 60 from 2636 BC = 504 BC, the third day of Adar, February 10, 504 BC:
To say there are no records of solar eclipses before 1217 BC is wrong. Even the 1217 BC eclipse on day 9 of 60 is just a guess by amateurs.
You will see below eclipse records of June 14, 1414 BC, April 11, 1411 BC, April 1, 1410 BC, January 29, 1407 BC and lunar eclipse December 26, 1409 BC, in Egypt.
There was a solar eclipse October 22, 2137 BC that may not have been recorded.
The next oldest eclipses are:
Ugarit eclipse: "On the day of the new moon, in the month Hiyar, the sun was put to shame, and went down in the daytime, with Mars in attendance,"
The month Hiyaru is in March. Then the possibility this is a sun miracle at the time of the three days of darkness before the Passover, on the new moon, March 15, 1281 BC when Mars is near the sun.
Mistaken eclipse May 3, 1375 BC:
Rather the path of the annular solar eclipse passes through Syria, August 23, 1464 BC:
You can see the solar eclipse path goes through Urgarit Syria where the solar eclipse was recorded along with Mars appearing. Mars was setting at 12 PM and should have been visible at the solar eclipse about 10 AM.
Mars is in Scorpius, and the moon in Castor Pollux 180° away. Perhaps the sun had been moved to the other side of earth for Mars to appear with the moon, also 180° away, in this lunar eclipse.
Or 70 years back from 1375 BC is in March of 1445 BC = sun darkened at Julius Caesar's assassination at the full moon in March 15, 45 BC = a sun miracle in this month of March in 1445 BC. Mars was recorded visible, Mars would be by the sun in March of 1445 BC and may have been visible if the sun moved 360° at the speed of light at noon.
Mars would be on the other side of the sun from the earth. Thus, God could move the sun around the earth without having to move Mars. Mars would appear at noon in the middle of the sky where the sun was.
Amenhotep III reigned 39 years, probably from 1467 BC to 1428 BC. 1468 BC is 1500 years to Jesus' sacrifice at the age of 38 and a half years old.
This 1375 BC should be 76 years further back in 1451 BC, in the 17th year of Amenhotep III.
Mistaken eclipse June 24, 1312 BC:
Rather September 15, 1382 BC.
You can see the path of the annular solar eclipse passes through Turkey = Anatolia, at noon = early afternoon = when the eclipse was recorded.
The Egyptian chronology must be moved back 76 years. 1464 BC is 89 years earlier than 1375 BC. 1382 BC is 70 years earlier than 1312 BC.
"In his, Chung-K'ang's, first year, which was Ke-ch'ow (26th of cycle 60 = 1951 BC + 180 years = 2131 BC) ..In his fifth year, in the autumn, on the 9th month, on the day kang-seuh (47th of cycle 60), which was the first day of the month, there was an eclipse of the sun, when he ordered the prince of Yin to lead the imperial forces to punish He and Ho..in his 7th year he died."
The Chinese Classics. p. 119.
The solar eclipse record for day 47th of cycle 60 for 2127 BC, or any other date, does not match any solar eclipse, and may be a sun miracle instead.
The solar eclipse on day 9 of cycle 60, October 22, 2137 BC is not on day 47, and is not on year 2127 BC either.
Nevertheless, the solar eclipse October 22, 2137 BC may have been the omen for the Chinese to choose a new emperor, T'ae-k'ang in 2137 BC. 2131 BC is 38 years from Yu's first year in 2169 BC.
The death of Chung-K'ang in his 7th year, in 2124 BC, was a 49 year jubile to Jesus' sacrifice.
The last month of Autumn in 2127 BC = 2127 / 128 = 16. Autumn equinox September 22. 16 more days is October 8, 2127 BC. Day 47 of cycle 60 is October 8, 2127 BC = lunar day 7. Jerusalem fell on darkness at noon September 7, 591 BC, day 40 of cycle 60, lunar day 7 of the fifth lunar month.
Ezekiel 45:18 Thus saith the Lord GOD; In the first month, in the first day of the month, thou shalt take a young bullock without blemish, and cleanse the sanctuary:
45:19 And the priest shall take of the blood of the sin offering, and put it upon the posts of the house, and upon the four corners of the settle of the altar, and upon the posts of the gate of the inner court.
45:20 And so thou shalt do the seventh day of the month for every one that erreth, and for him that is simple: so shall ye reconcile the house."
The first day and the 7th day of the first month may count from the civil new year in the seventh month in September.
The new moon, December 11, 2128 BC, was the ninth month, day 47 of cycle 60. Only this was not a solar eclipse. Nevertheless, day 47 of cycle 60 was the new moon of the ninth month and likely a sun miracle in 2128 BC. The 49 year jubile was in 2124 BC, 2128 BC would be the third year from 2131 BC. There appear sun miracles in the second year, after the seventh year fallow year from the jubile in 164 BC, in years 155 BC, 148 BC and 141 BC.
Jeremiah 36:9 "And it came to pass in the fifth year of Jehoiakim the son of Josiah king of Judah, in the ninth month, that they proclaimed a fast before the LORD to all the people in Jerusalem, and to all the people that came from the cities of Judah unto Jerusalem."
The fifth year of Jehoiakim, from 611 BC, should be 607 BC, 600 years to Jesus' birth.
Jesus' birth Saturday, September 12, 7 BC. The first day of the ninth month would be 8 + 33 days = 41 days = one day before 42 days = 6 X 7; 41 days = a Friday a day before the sabbath. Jesus was presented to the temple 41 days after his birth about the 17th day of the 7th month, September 12, 7 BC + 41 days is the first day of the ninth month, October 23, 7 BC.
The cycle of 60 years in China may be 60 years more recent. The fifth year may count from 2072 BC = 2068 BC. Then this date may be, day 47 of cycle 60, September 28, 2068 BC = the 17th lunar day of the seventh month. Jesus may have been born September 12, 7 BC, the 17th day of the seventh month. 2068 BC is 2100 years to Jesus' sacrifice.
Likewise, Friday, November 27, 2068 BC is day 47 of cycle 60 = the 17th day of the ninth month.
Possibly the year was this 2138 BC and not 60 years more recent.
October 5, 2138 BC was the new moon and day 47 of cycle 60. There was no solar eclipse on this date and a sun miracle may have been recorded instead.
Nevertheless, 2127 BC makes the most sense.
Every point on earth should expect a total solar eclipse every 375 years to 460 years. The maximum length is about seven minutes. However, the solar eclipse is a dark circle passing over earth's surface meaning the upper and lower part would have a much shorter total eclipse.
Day 10 of cycle 60 could be the full moon = Passover Friday/Saturday March 19, 1204 BC. There was a lunar eclipse visible from Israel March 19, 1204 BC just as there was a lunar eclipse visible from Israel March 13, 4 BC. Herod died March 31, 4 BC or at the end of the lunar month March 27, 4 BC.
Some suggest Jesus was born in 4 BC just before Herod died and was crucified April 7, 30 AD at the age of thirty-three.
However, all the history of sun miracles point to Jesus' birth the 17th day of the 7th month, September 12, 7 BC and his crucifixion April 3, 33 AD. This means Jesus was 35 years old, not 30 years old, = in the thirtieth decade of his life, when he began his ministry. Thus this verse may be interpreted: Jesus began his ministry in his 30th decade = 35, not began to be 30.
Many of the Kings of Israel and Judah are given ages and reigns like this 35 years and 38 years of Jesus' life:
2 Kings 15:13 "Shallum the son of Jabesh began to reign in the nine and thirtieth year of Uzziah king of Judah; and he reigned a full month in Samaria."
2 Kings 15:17 "In the nine and thirtieth year of Azariah king of Judah began Menahem the son of Gadi to reign over Israel, and reigned ten years in Samaria."
2 Kings 25:27 "And it came to pass in the seven and thirtieth year of the captivity of Jehoiachin king of Judah, in the twelfth month, on the seven and twentieth day of the month, that Evilmerodach king of Babylon in the year that he began to reign did lift up the head of Jehoiachin king of Judah out of prison;"
2 Chronicles 15:19 "And there was no more war unto the five and thirtieth year of the reign of Asa."
2 Chronicles 16:1 "In the six and thirtieth year of the reign of Asa Baasha king of Israel came up against Judah, and built Ramah, to the intent that he might let none go out or come in to Asa king of Judah."
Nehemiah 5:14 "Moreover from the time that I was appointed to be their governor in the land of Judah, from the twentieth year even unto the two and thirtieth year of Artaxerxes the king, that is, twelve years, I and my brethren have not eaten the bread of the governor."
Nehemiah 13:6 "But in all this time was not I at Jerusalem: for in the two and thirtieth year of Artaxerxes king of Babylon came I unto the king, and after certain days obtained I leave of the king:"
Jeremiah 52:31 "And it came to pass in the seven and thirtieth year of the captivity of Jehoiachin king of Judah, in the twelfth month, in the five and twentieth day of the month, that Evilmerodach king of Babylon in the first year of his reign lifted up the head of Jehoiachin king of Judah, and brought him forth out of prison."
Ezekiel 1:1 "Now it came to pass in the thirtieth year, in the fourth month, in the fifth day of the month, as I was among the captives by the river of Chebar, that the heavens were opened, and I saw visions of God."
Here you see the 19 year lunar cycle, 2 X 19 years = 38 years. Thus, the moon cycle date is the same when Jesus was 38 years old as on Jesus' birth:
"1. The sun goes in the seven circles of the heavens, and I gave him 182 thrones when he goes on a short day, and 182 thrones when he goes on a long day.
2. And he has two great thrones on which he rests, returning hither and thither above the monthly thrones. From the month Tsivan after seventeen days he descends to the month Thevan, and from the seventeenth day of Thevad he ascends. And so the sun goes through all the courses of the heaven."
Secrets of Enoch, Chapter XLVIII, p.63.
The month Tsivan must be the seventh month in September.
"The sun goes in the seven circles of the heavens" may refer to the seven divisions of day and night, like the 28 divisions in the Dead Sea Scrolls and like the 28 lunar divisions in Yao's zodiac. Sun miracles in 155 BC, 148 BC and 141 BC may indicate sun miracles as often as every seven years.
164 BC was a 49 year jubile. Then 155 BC 9 years later would be the second year of sowing the land = the first year the ground bare fruit, the grain to ripen after the fallow year. These all in sequence of seven years: 155 BC, 148 BC and 141 BC.
James 5:7 "Be patient therefore, brethren, unto the coming of the Lord. Behold, the husbandman waiteth for the precious fruit of the earth, and hath long patience for it, until he receive the early and latter rain."
Half of an orbit from the summer solstice or the winter solstice is about 182 days.
The 17th day of the 7th month was a sun miracle, a short day or a long day. And there was a sun miracle 182 days later, or before; = a half orbit where the sun may move to the other side of earth and earth flow out of, or into, a reverse orbit.
182 days back from September 12, 7 BC is Passover, the full moon, March 16, 7 BC. Thus, perhaps sun miracles on the Passover and Jesus' birth. March 16, 7 BC may have been John the Baptist's birth. Nevertheless, the wisemen saw the star in the east at Jesus' birth, probably September 12, 7 BC.
Matthew 2:1 "Now after Jesus was born in Bethlehem of Judea in the days of Herod the king, behold, wise men from the east came to Jerusalem,
2:2 Saying, Where is he that is born King of the Jews? for we have seen his star in the east, and are come to worship him.
2:3 When Herod the king had heard these things, he was troubled, and all Jerusalem with him."
Arcturus would pass directly over Jerusalem in March in about 18 BC some 13 years before this 5 BC. The temple was being rebuilt by Herod in 18 BC = 49 years to Jesus' sacrifice. There are many 49 year jubiles to Jesus' sacrifice, April 3, 33 AD. A plumb line used to build the temple could also be used to site Arcturus passing directly overhead in 18 BC.
The wise men may have had several plumb lines as they traveled to Bethlehem from Jerusalem. Thus, spaced 200 feet ahead of eachother, the first one to line up directly above as Arcturus passed overhead would know to stop because they would then be at the house of Joseph and Mary.
Amos 7:7 "Thus he shewed me: and, behold, the Lord stood upon a wall made by a plumbline, with a plumbline in his hand.
7:8 And the LORD said unto me, Amos, what seest thou? And I said, A plumbline. Then said the Lord, Behold, I will set a plumbline in the midst of my people Israel: I will not again pass by them any more:"
Zechariah 4:9 "The hands of Zerubbabel have laid the foundation of this house; his hands shall also finish it; and thou shalt know that the LORD of hosts hath sent me unto you.
4:10 For who hath despised the day of small things? for they shall rejoice, and shall see the plummet in the hand of Zerubbabel with those seven; they are the eyes of the LORD, which run to and fro through the whole earth."
English Standard Version "when it rose" = The sun moving to the other side of earth on Jesus' birth about September 12, 7 BC. Then, Arcturus that normally would set just after the sun, would then rise at sunset and be directly above Bethlehem at midnight.
Psalm 148:4 "Praise him, ye heavens of heavens, and ye waters that be above the heavens."
Arcturus passes 2,000 feet south a year. So when the wisemen followed the star, the star would not only pass over Bethlehem, the star would pass directly above the house of Joseph and Mary when Jesus was two years old in September of 5 BC.
Our earliest memories start when we are two and a half years old, even two years old.
Bethlehem is directly a little more than four miles south of Jerusalem, or about five miles walking distance by road south of Jerusalem.
At the feast of tabernacles, of booths, the children of Israel were to be outside. They were supposed to look up to the stars. The night Jesus was born they should have seen Arcturus pass directly overhead.
The Hebrew New Testament uses the letter "bet" the word for "from" for in the east. Matthew probably was written in Hebrew first. "bet" often means from in Hebrew. The wise men came "from" the east. So a double meaning for seeing the star "in" the east.
Simply, the sun may have first moved to the other side of earth on Jesus' birth about September 12, 7 BC. Then the wisemen would see Arcturus above at midnight. If the wisemen were at the same latitude as Bethlehem, they would see Arcturus pass directly overhead at midnight in September.
Arcturus is now at the 19° latitude, 900 miles south of Bethlehem at the 32° latitude. Arcturus at 37 light years from earth moves quite a bit, 2000 feet a year. Then the wisemen must have come seeking the star of the King of the Jews at the exact time God planned for them for the wisemen to travel four miles south of Jerusalem and arrive at the house of Joseph and Mary and Jesus with Arcturus passing directly overhead.
The wisemen rejoiced to see the star in the east. That is, earth was still in a reverse orbit and the sun was still on the other side of the earth = opposite. Arcturus would normally be right beside the sun in September, Arcturus setting with the sun in the west in September.
Seeing Arcturus rise in the east at sunset would give the wisemen six hours to reach Bethlehem four miles south of Jerusalem = to midnight when Arcturus would pass directly above Bethlehem, as observed with a plumbline, to the house where Joseph and Mary and Jesus were. Jesus would be almost two years old in September of 5 BC.
The wisemen would get to Bethlehem before midnight. Then looking straight up a plumb line walking south, they would get to a point Arcturus was and would pass overhead. And thus being on the one road through Bethlehem, would stop at the house of Joseph and Mary = no need to travel any further.
The 49 year jubile can only match if Jesus was crucified April 3, 33 AD. And the 50 year jubile can only match if Jesus began his ministry September of 29 AD.
If this solar eclipse record was a type of Jesus' sacrifice and three hours of darkness at noon = the evening sun in China darkened at sunset. Thus, the sun would appear to be eclipsed, but would rather be darkened in a sun miracle.
177 days before would be September 24, 1205 BC, day 13 of cycle 60 = 177 days ahead = day 10 of cycle 60 March 19, 1205 BC. King Wan stated this lunar eclipse on a day 13 instead of a day 15 was an omen for a change in emperor of China. This September 23 was day 15 of the lunar month = time of a lunar eclipse, by coincidence was day 13 of cycle 60. Nevertheless, this day appears it may be a sun miracle rather than a typical lunar eclipse to foretell Jesus' birth.
The first sun miracle of a two or three year reverse orbit be September 23, 1207 BC = the 22d day of the seventh month is the last great day of the feast of tabernacles. From 1207 BC is 1200 years to 7 BC, to foretell Jesus' birth September 12, 7 BC.
The 17th day of the seventh month Thursday September 19, 1207 BC is day 58 of cycle 60, a few more days to a keatze day Sunday September 21, 1207 BC = Jesus on a Saturday, September 12, 7 BC. The tropical calendar September 19, 1207 BC; 1207 / 128 = 9 days = September 12, 7 BC.
The Gregorian calendar is the tropical calendar. Before Christ, BC, the Julian calendar is used. After 1 AD, Annos Deos, the year of our Lord, the Gregorian calendar is used. The Julian calendar uses a 365.25 year. The Gregorian calendar uses a 365.24 day year. That difference of a .24 day and not a .25 day, makes a big difference over thousands of years.
The Julian calendar works perfectly with the sothis calendars of Armenia and Egypt in years BC Before Christ. The Julian calendar backs up one day ever four years, much like our February 29 ever four years and uses a 365.25 day year. The Egyptians did not have a February 29, yet their fixed calendar tied to July 16 added one day every four years.
The difference in the Gregorian calendar we use now is some years, years divided by four, like the year 2000 AD, do not have a February 29. That way our Gregorian calendar is fixed to make the same dates for the equinoxes and solstices match the seasons no matter how long the calendar goes.
The Chinese had four seasons. Each season began 45 days before the sostice, or the equinox, and lasted 45 more days = four seasons of 90 days = 360 days or a year of 365 days.
This keatze day, day one of cycle 60, should be the last quarter moon, November 20, 1207 BC to be the last day of the month of autumn.
Nevertheless, the record states it was in winter = November to February. The year before:
"In his 21st year, in the spring, in the first month, the princes went to Chow to do homage."
The Chinese Classics. p. 139.
The lunar month moves back 11 days each year. What was spring, on the same date the next year may be winter. January 24, 1207 BC = the 21st year.
March 23, 1207 BC was the full moon and Passover. Two and a half orbits later, September 24, 1205 BC was the full moon also.
March 25, 1207 BC was a keatze day.
March 27, 1206 BC was a new moon. Add a second month of Adar, and March 25, 1206 BC becomes the last month of winter.
September 26, 1208 BC was a full moon and was a keatze day one of cycle 60. Three years almost to the day September 24, 1205 BC was a lunar eclipse in China. The sun may return three years later to the date, from September 26, 1208 BC to September 24, 1205 BC.
The next year 1206 BC, day one of cycle 60, should be the 28 day moon, November 16, 1206 BC. The 22d year of Te-sin from 1227 BC should be 1206 BC because 1205 BC was his 23rd year the year he captured king Wan at his declaration at the lunar eclipse of September 24, 1205 BC. Thus, a new moon and a new day one of cycle 60 in the last month of autumn should be this November 16, 1206 BC.
The next year 1205 BC, day one of cycle 60, should be the two day moon, November 9, 1205 BC. A sun miracle either on the lunar eclipse September 24, 1205 BC day 13 of cycle 60; or a sun miralce on a keatze day on November 16, 1206 BC or November 9, 1205 BC.
Thus, God must move the sun to the other side of earth on Jesus' birth, perhaps September 12, 7 BC, and then move the sun back September 12, 5 BC or at the lunar eclipse September 15, 5 BC. Thus, the wise men must have come just before September 12, 5 BC = just before two years since Arcturus appeared directly above at midnight about September 12, 7 BC.
September 12, 5 BC was a keatze day, day one of cycle sixty. Thus if the wisemen were Chinese they would be very aware of the keatze day. Also, the Chinese prophesy, from the time of Huangdi = the sun miracle on day 57 of cycle 60, 20th of cycle 60 from January 26, 2636 BC = October 18, 2607 BC = the birth of Abraham = 2600 years before Jesus' birth on September 12, 7 BC, of a great King born in the Fall on a keatze, day or year.
September 12, 5 BC would be Yom Kippur, the tenth day of the seventh lunar month. September 15 the full moon = lunar day 13, three days back, is lunar day 10, September 12, 5 BC.
The next day, September 16, 5 BC would begin the seven day feast of tabernacles, the 15th Hebrew day of the seventh month.
"Divined on day guiyou [10]: (Charge:) The Sun was eclipsed in the evening: we should report it to [ancestor] Shang Jia."
[Heji, 33695]
Most of the oracle bones were made during the reign of Wuding 1393 BC to his 50th year 1344 BC. His first year was 44th of cycle 60 from 2636 BC = 1393 BC. Thus, this 1369 BC was in Wuding's 24th year. "In his 25th year, (1368 BC = 1400 years to Jesus' sacrifice) his son Heaou-e died when he was banished to the wilderness."
Pharaoh Horemheb reigned 25 years from 1393 BC to Ramses I in 1368 BC = 1400 years to Jesus' sacrifice, April 3, 33 AD. There may have been a sun miracle in 1368 BC and be the omen to remove Pharaoh Horemheb. Ramses I reigned for two years, from 1370 BC to 1368 BC. Then Pharaoh Seti I reigned 11 years from 1368 BC to 1357 BC. Pharaoh Ramses II reigned 66 years to 1291 BC. Pharaoh Merneptah reigned 10 years to the Exodus and his death at the Reed Sea about April 3, 1281 BC.
"In his, Wuding, 12th year, (from 1393 BC = 1381 BC = 100 years to the Exodus in 1281 BC) he offered sacrifice of thanksgiving to Shang-keah Wei." A sun miracle in 1381 BC may have prompted Wuding to give sacrifice. Ancestor Shang was from this same Shang dynasty.
Wuding reigned till 1344 BC; a sun miracle in 1345 BC may have been the omen for a new emperor. 1345 BC to 1307 BC are 38 years in reverse, such as the 38 years of Jesus' life in reverse from 45 BC to Jesus' birth in 7 BC.
Ramses II reigned from 1357 BC. His 50th year would be 1307 BC.
Ramesses II's tenth year was 1347 BC. He may not have had to fight in this battle because there may have been the omen of a sun miracle in this 1345 BC = 38 years, Jesus' age was 38 years, to 1307 BC = 1300 years to Jesus' birth.
February 14, 1369 BC was day 10 of cycle 60 and the full moon = what would be the Passover March 30, 1281 BC. Solar eclipse records in the evening are rare. The sun darkened at noon on the Passover, like the sun was darkened at noon when Jesus was on the cross, would be setting on China.
Nevertheless, this day/night of darkness may have been the new moon March 15, 1281 BC two weeks before the Exodus out of Egypt.
Possibly February 14, 1281 BC may have been the day that turned to night that lasted three days Exodus 10:21. February 14, 1369 BC may have been the day 10 of cycle 60 that was a solar eclipse in the evening on China = noon and the Passover in Israel; may have been like the three hours of darkness when Jesus was on the cross at noon, April 3, 33 AD.
Again, probably the three days of darkness in Exodus was the new moon March 15, 1281 BC and two weeks later was the Exodus, Friday, March 15, 1281 BC.
1369 BC would be about the fourth year, or first year, of Pharaoh Seti I. Moses brother Aaron was about three years older; Moses born 1361 BC and Aaron about 1364 BC - just after this 1369 BC. Thus Moses was born about two years before Pharaoh Seti I died. Then Ramses II may have discontinued the practice of killing the Hebrew male newborns.
Ramses II reigned from 1357 BC, back 11 years, Seti I reigned from 1368 BC, back two years, Ramses I reigned from 1370 BC. If there was a sun miracle in 1369 BC, the sun may move back and the earth must flow out of the reverse orbit one year later, in 1368 BC; 1400 years to Jesus' sacrifice. From 1369 BC 3 X 49 years = 1222 BC = 25 X 50 years to Jesus' speaking from Isaiah 61:1 in Luke 4:18 = the fulfillment of the jubile.
Likewise, Joseph in Egypt in 2322 BC, seven years to 2315 BC to begin the seven years of plenty, the second year of famine 2307 BC. 2322 BC = 47 X 50 to Jesus' fulfillment September 9, 29 AD, or October 7, 29 AD.
2307 BC is also a seventh year; 2369 BC - 49 - 7 - 7 = 2307 BC the seventh year.
Shun became emperor of China in 2222 BC, year 56 of cycle 60, probably on a sun miracle taken as an omen for a new emperor. 45 X 50 year jubiles to Jesus on Yom Kippur speaking from Isaiah 61 in Luke 4:18 in September 9, 29 AD or October 7, 29 AD. There are also 46 X 49 year jubiles to Jesus' sacrifice from 2222 BC to April 3, 33 AD.
Or Shun becomes emperor 50 years before Yu in 2169 BC = 2219 BC. Yao died at 100 years of reign in 2216 BC. From Yao in 2315 BC 100 years to Shun is 2216 BC = a keatze, year one of cycle sixty, from 2636 BC.
Likewise Yu succeeded Shun in 2169 BC, year 49 of cycle 60 from 2636 BC. 2168 BC is 2200 years to Jesus' sacrifice.
Jesus' birth in 7 BC was year 49 of cycle 60.
"In his (King Te-sin) 5th year...there was a shower of earth in Poh." "In his 6th year, the cheif of the west (king Wan) offered sacrifice for the first time to his ancestors at Peih." (A peih is a jade disk with a hole = the symbol of the sun. The emperor dropped a peih in the river when there was a sun miracle).
The Chinese Classics, The Annals of the Bamboo Books, p.139
Joshua 9:10 "And all that he did to the two kings of the Amorites, that were beyond Jordan, to Sihon king of Heshbon, and to Og king of Bashan, which was at Ashtaroth."
Likewise, at Peih = a sun miracle, at Ashtaroth may have to do with Arcturus = the handle of the Big Dipper revolving in reverse through the year while earth was in a reverse orbit.
There may have been a long day when Moses conquered the Amorites; possibly February 5, 1242 BC or August 10, 1242 BC.
The 40th year, 11th month, the 1st day, Tuesday November 28, 1242 BC. The battle may have been before that, perhaps August 10, 1242 BC.
Deuteronomy 1:3 "And it came to pass in the fortieth year, in the eleventh month, on the first day of the month, that Moses spake unto the children of Israel, according unto all that the LORD had given him in commandment unto them;
1:4 After he had slain Sihon the king of the Amorites, which dwelt in Heshbon, and Og the king of Bashan, which dwelt at Astaroth in Edrei:"
Te-sin reigned from 1226 BC, his 5th year was 1222 BC. "a shower of earth" is a meteor shower such as when God moved the sun to the other side of earth and earth in this reverse orbit hit head on the asteroids that normally travelled with the earth.
Meteors are mostly observed after midnight = the side of earth facing forwards. But in a reverse orbit meteors would appear after sunset = the side of earth facing forwards = more likely people were up to observe them.
Earth in the reverse orbit is going against the grain, against the grains of asteroids. The cross of Jesus teaches us to go against the grain of nature.
The sacrifice of king Wan the next year would be in recognition of this sun miracle. This king Wan made note of all the omens of sun miracles and eclipses as a sign for a new dynasty at the lunar eclipse of September 24, 1205 BC whereupon he was imprisoned.
Josephus wrote that Joshua died in the 25th year of the conquest. And that he spoke to the people in Joshua 24 in the 20th year from the conquest of 1241 BC. From 1241 BC the 20th year is this same 1222 BC. Another reason there may have been a sun miracle that year.
This solar eclipse record in Egypt is true: The new moon for II Aket 1 is September 7, 1365 BC. As are five more eclipse records from the same period in Egypt:
Total solar eclipse June 14, 1414 BC.
Annular eclipse April 11, 1411 BC.
Solar eclipse April 1, 1410 BC.
Lunar eclipse December 26, 1409 BC.
Total solar eclipse January 29, 1407 BC.
Thus, all dates work going back before Joshua's long day, both backwards and forwards.
The main part is Joshua's long day is hidden. The sun was moved to the other side of earth, and earth's orbit sped up 48 hours so there were the same 365 days a year because orbit was against rotation. These are real events, but hidden.
The sun should return 365 days, exactly one year, later. Yao recorded the reverse zodiac in his first year was 366 days, be from April 1, 2315 BC to April 2, 2315 BC.
If only one year of reverse orbit, this would make king Wan's dream Monday at sunset in China, February 17, 1240 BC = 366 days from Saturday February 17, 1241 BC the same day of the year because of leap year February 29, 1241 BC = 366 days to February 17, 1240 BC.
Nevertheless, from February 4, 1241 BC, and from February 4, 1240 BC are 366 days to king Wan's dream February 5, 1239 BC.
Again, if only one year of reverse orbit, means the sun returned one year later, 365 days, after Saturday, February 17, 1241 BC = Sunday, February 16, 1240 BC.
However, the sixth day of the moon, and the sixth day of the lunar zodiac in Scorpius, would match king Wan's dream February 5, 1241 BC much better.
The sun must have been in Virgo that February 5, 1239 BC, and the moon six lunar mansions away in Scorpius. The first lunar mansion in the 28 lunar mansion chart starts at Corvus/Virgo. Thus, the six day moon was six days old and in the sixth day of the lunar zodiac. Even, Friday, February 6, 1239 BC was on day six of the seven day week and certainly on day six of the 29 days of the lunar month, or six of this 28 day lunar zodiac = even counting days in the lunar zodiac and days of the lunar month = both.
Here you see the first sign in red = 180° from the blue sign. Thus, you can count six signs from the red to king Wan's dream on the sixth day moon. The Chinese count from the exact new moon when the moon passes by the sun. From February 1, 1239 BC are six days to February 5, 1239 BC. The battle of Deborah in Judges 4 and 5 should be February 1240 BC six months after Joshua's long day, most likely February 5, 1240 BC. King Wan's dream may be one year later. From the new moon February 1, 1239 BC to February 5, 1239 BC is the six day moon = king Wan's dream.
From the first sign Jue in a red circle is in Leo/Virgo is 180° to the fourteenth sign Dongbi in a blue circle is in Taurus/Pegasus. Thus the sun move 180° from Virgo to Taurus. Thus six signs = the sixth day moon of king Wan's dream, from Jue in Virgo is Wei of Scorpius.
Here you see the zodiac progress in the normal direction:
Here you see the zodiac progress in reverse:
Here counting from the first sign to the sixth sign in Scorpius. Thus, the moon and Saturn appeared together in the sixth sign in Scorpius, the six day moon, of king Wan's dream. Thus, the six day moon may mean the sixth lunar mansion and also the sixth lunar day. Also, the first lunar mansion in Virgo = where the sun was before the sun moved back. Then also, when the sun moved 180° back from Virgo it would be in the 14th lunar mansion = dongbi - Pegasus - Pisces.
Here you can see the size of each of the 28 divisions is very uneven.
Historical Supernovae and their Remnants, p.18.
Here you see the 28 lunar mansion zodiac again:
At my first attempt to uncover Joshua's long day, at a presentation at the Penticton astronomy club, October 13, 2005, Joshua's Long Day presented to Okanagan Astronomy Society (now part of ocrasc.ca) on October 13, 2005. I started with a sun miracle in February and 186 days later, half an orbit later, the sun move back in August, and earth flow out of the reverse orbit of the sun on Joshua's long day. The thought was a 12 hour long day in February and a 12 hour long Joshua's long day in August = 24 hours.
Soon after this I discovered there were 186.5 days from the spring equinox to the fall equinox, and 179 days from the fall equinox to the spring equinox. Thus, this 187 days of 365 days meant 24 hours and 30 minutes. A half orbit means 24 hours and 30 minutes of sped up orbit, not just 24 hours.
In this presentation I assumed 12 hours long day in February for king Wan and 12 hours long day in August for Joshua's long day. Because the sun moved 180° each time = 12 hours each time X 2 = 24 hours.
It was not to be so simple. Earth's elliptical orbit would not let it be so simple.
The sun must move back at the half orbit point = 186.5 days is a half orbit. One and a half more days is 188 days; from February 4, 1241 BC to August 24, 1241 BC. In 186.5 days/ 365.24 days; multiplied by 48 hours, there are 24 hours and 30 minutes. From February 4, 1241 BC to August 10, 1241 BC is 188 days / 365.24 days; multiplied by 48 hours, there are 24 hours and 40 minutes. However, this longer first half orbit is the slower, so the sped up time of the more than 40 minutes is the fall/winter half orbit.
So the sped up time from the crossing of the river Jordan to Joshua's long day, is the slower half = 23 hours and 20 minutes sped up time. The next half reverse orbit sped up time from Joshua's long day August 10, 1241 BC to February 4, 1240 BC is 24 hours and 40 minutes = 48 hours in total sped up time.
The sun revolving around the earth to stand still in the sky with earth's rotation would be 24 hours. Thus, there are 40 minutes missing.
Because rotation was against orbit in the reverse orbit, earth must be sped up around the sun about 24 hours in that half orbit. However, that half orbit is longer than half the year. Thus, earth must be sped up 24 hours and 40 minutes over 188 days, and not just 24 hours.
This 40 minutes may be multiplied many times, every time, every year, God moved the sun. One becomes very aware very soon that there was not one but many sun miracles and many reverse orbits. Thus, the missing 40 minutes had to be found.
Thus, there would be 24 hours of the sun standing still at noon, of long days, in total. This left 40 minutes.
At that point in my presentation at Penticton I was at the same place as these NASA scientists. 40 minutes had to be found.
Some time after this I discovered the whole year of 48 hours sped up time.
That is, at earth's present speed there would be 367 days a year in a reverse orbit, not the 365 days a year we have now. Earth has to be sped up 48 hours a reverse orbit for there to be 365 days a year.
Then also, there would be 23 hours 20 minutes plus 24 hours 40 minutes = 48 hours. And no net missing time, of even a minute.
"40 minutes had to be found because you are still in trouble 1,000 years from now. Forty minutes had to be found because it can be multiplied many times over in orbits.." - This reference to 40 minutes in orbit is key to identifying the above model with the missing day story. Thus, the Missing Day Story, though adapted to Totten's work, rings true. Totten's book on Joshua's long day was reprinted in December of 1968. The forty missing minutes is there.
But there is no mention of the forty minutes being multiplied many times over in orbits. Harold Hill may have heard of NASA discovering the missing 24 hours, and a missing 40 minutes, like I have done and not understanding it, he used Totten's book instead.
"They were checking the position of the sun, moon, and planets out in space where they would be 100 years and 1000 years from now." - When the sun moved to the other side of the earth, the planets must move 180° also. They must revolve around the sun so to appear in the same position at the same time of night as they normally would have in their seasons.
Then half a reverse orbit later the sun may move back 180° and earth flow out of the reverse orbit of the sun. The planets would move exactly 180° from where they were appearing in their seasons to appear in their normal position when the sun moved 180° back and earth flowed out of the reverse orbit of the sun. This exact mechanics could also tell the space scientists to look at the half orbit point and discover they were missing 24 hours in earth's sped up orbit at that point.
Only there would be some 40 minutes left over in missing time that had to be countered by a second half reverse orbit beginning right after the first half reverse orbit ended. After the sun and planets moved back exactly 180° one year later there would be no net missing time at all.
From the Chinese reckoning the day began at sunset. Thus, king Wan's dream, Thursday, February 5, 1239 BC, may be counted the sixth day of the seven day week, February 6, 1239 BC as well as the six day moon.
From the Babylonian reckoning the day began at sunset, like wise in Israel. From the Egyptian reckoning the day began at sun rise.
The major battle was Joshua's long day, probably on the Sabbath, Saturday, August 10, 1241 BC.
Hebrews 4:8 "For if Joshua had given them rest, then would he not afterward have spoken of another day.
4:9 There remaineth therefore a rest to the people of God.
4:10 For he that is entered into his rest, he also hath ceased from his own works, as God did from his."
God's day of rest in Genesis was on the seventh day. Thus, if Joshua did not give Israel rest, the battles of conquest should have occurred on Saturday, the day of rest. The battle of Jericho on Saturday, February 17, 1241 BC and Joshua's long day Saturday, August 10, 1241 BC.
In the Dead Sea Scroll, 4QJosha: Joshua 8:30 - 35 appears right after Israel crossed the river Jordan, before Joshua 5:1.
Joshua 8:30 "Then Joshua built an altar unto the LORD God of Israel in mount Ebal,"
Joshua 8:34 "And afterward he read all the words of the law, the blessings and cursings, according to all that is written in the book of the law."
Deuteronomy 31:10 "And Moses commanded them, saying, At the end of every seven years, in the solemnity of the year of release, in the feast of tabernacles,
31:11 When all Israel is come to appear before the LORD thy God in the place which he shall choose, thou shalt read this law before all Israel in their hearing."
The last day of the feast of tabernacles would be Saturday, August 10, 1241 BC. If there was a sun miracle when the children of Israel crossed the river Jordan, February 5, 1241 BC - half an orbit later is the great day of the feast of tabernacles, day 21 of the seventh month, August 10, 1241 BC. Joshua would read the law in Deuteronomy from the 15th day, the first day of the feast of tabernacles, Saturday, August 3, 1241 BC.
"every seven years" = Joshua speaking in Joshua 24 in the 21st year according to Josephus. 1221 BC = even 50 year jubiles to Jesus speaking from Isaiah 61 in Luke 4.
Joshua may have died that 1221 BC, if on the 26th day of Nissan, this would be Friday, April 8, 1221 BC = April 1 in the Gregorian calendar today, or about the time of Jesus' sacrifice, Friday, April 3, 33 AD.
The first year of emperor Te-sin of China was not in 1221 BC but in 1227 BC, because he imprisoned king Wan in his 23rd year in the lunar eclipse of September 24, 1205 BC.
"In his fifth year there was a shower of earth in Poh..In his sixth year, the cheif of the west offered sacrifice for the first time to his ancestors in Peih."
The Chinese Classics.p.138.
Te-sin from 1227 BC his sixth year = 1222 BC = the twentieth year, from 1241 BC, of Joshua's conquest when Joshua spoke in Joshua 24 according to Josephus. The Peih was a jade disc that the Chinese dropped in the river when there was a sun miracle. Also, the shower of earh from a meteor shower in earth's reverse orbit that year.
In Te-sin's 23d year he imprisoned king Wan, 1205 BC. There was a five planet conjunction in fang in 1195 BC = 46 years from Joshua's conquest in 1241 BC.
The land of Israel had rest for forty years from 1241 BC. 1198 BC may also have been when the ark was taken and the High Priest Eli died after forty years. Josephus wrote there were 25 years of Joshua from the conquest of Palestine in 1241 BC, and a further 18 years to Samuel = 1198 BC - perhaps when the high priest Eli died and Samuel began his service to become high priest.
From Te-sin's 33d year = 1194 BC king Wan had the appointment of Heaven for nine years, that may also equal a sun miracle when Ruth returned to Bethlehem after the same ten years, ten years of famine in Israel from 1198 BC to about 1189 BC.
In Te-sin's 48th year = 1178 BC an E-goat appeared, an amazing wonder!
King Ching's first year was in spring in 1168 BC. In King Ching's 18th year, 1150 BC, phoenixes appeared.
"Long ago, when King Ch'eng (King Ching) of Chou (1067 BC-1031 BC) (corrected by 100 years; 1168 BC- 1133 BC) was first enthroned, he was still in swaddling clothes."
The Grand Scribes records, Volume VII. p.363.
"In his 7th year, from 1168 BC, the duke of Chow restored the government to the King. In the spring, in the 2d month, the king went to Fung. In the 3d month, duke K'ang of Shaou went to Loh, to measure the ground for the city. On the day Keah-tsze, 1st of cycle 60, the duke Wan of Chow made an anouncement to the numerous officers in Ching-chow, and theron they walled the eastern capital. The king then went to it, and the princes came to do him homage."
The Chinese Classics, the Annals of the Bamboo Books. p.146.
Keah-tsze day 1 of cycle 60 was March 24, 1161 BC, the full moon and Passover in Israel. Perhaps there was a sun miracle at the Passover.
Ezra 7:1 "Now after these things, in the reign of Artaxerxes king of Persia, Ezra the son of Seraiah, the son of Azariah, the son of Hilkiah,"
Nehemiah 8:2 "And Ezra the priest brought the law before the congregation both of men and women, and all that could hear with understanding, upon the first day of the seventh month."
Nehemiah 12:26 "These were in the days of Joiakim the son of Jeshua, the son of Jozadak, and in the days of Nehemiah the governor, and of Ezra the priest, the scribe."
Ezra and Nehemiah must have lived in the reign of Artaxerxes, from 458 BC, at the same time.
This altar may have been built on Yom Kippur, the 10th day of the 7th month. Then Joshua's long day may have been the 21 day of the seventh month. The feast of tabernacles went from the 15th day of the seventh month to the 21 day of the seventh month. Joshua's long day be on the last day of the feast of tabernacles, August 10, 1241 BC.
Thus, the nationhood of Israel in the beginning of their civil calendar in the seventh month.
Then Joshua's long day be either the last quarter moon, the 21st day, of the seventh month = three weeks later, three weeks after the first day, Rosh Hashanah on July 20, 1241 BC, of the seventh month, August 10, 1241 BC.
Or Joshua's long day be the first quarter moon of the eighth month August 24, 1241 BC, five weeks after Rosh Hashanah.
Most likely there were sun miracles from the crossing of the Jordan, Sunday, February 4, 1241 BC and Joshua's long day half an orbit later, the 21st day of the seventh month, Saturday, August 10. 1241 BC, the battle of Merom, February 5, 1240 BC and one more year later the sun returned on king Wan's dream, the six day moon, the sixth day of the week, February 5, 1239 BC.
The Chinese counted the day from sunset, like the Hebrews, and from the moment the moon passed by the sun, not the first visibility of the moon. Thus, the moon passed the sun at noon, February 1, 1239 BC in China. The day in China, like in Israel, begins at sunset, at evening. Then on February 5, 1239 BC would begin the six day moon in China = king Wan's dream.
The sun half an orbit before August 10, 1241 BC, in the reverse orbit, was in Virgo and the six day moon between Libra and Scorpius in Fang as was recorded in king Wan's dream = both the sixth day of the 28 day lunar zodiac and the sixth day of the first lunar month of spring, and beginning Friday at sunset = also, the sixth day of the Hebrew week.
Simply, the sun was in Virgo, and earth still in the reverse orbit, just before king Wan's dream, and the sun moved 180° with earth's rotation to Pisces, and earth flowed out of the reverse orbit of the sun.
King Wan's dream most likely was February 5, 1239 BC, even the six day moon.
1 Kings 6:37 "In the fourth year was the foundation of the house of the LORD laid, in the month Zif:
6:38 And in the eleventh year, in the month Bul, which is the eighth month, was the house finished throughout all the parts thereof, and according to all the fashion of it. So was he seven years in building it."
1 Kings 8:1 "Then Solomon assembled the elders of Israel, and all the heads of the tribes, the chief of the fathers of the children of Israel, unto king Solomon in Jerusalem, that they might bring up the ark of the covenant of the LORD out of the city of David, which is Zion.
8:2 And all the men of Israel assembled themselves unto king Solomon at the feast in the month Ethanim, which is the seventh month."
1 Kings 8:65 "And at that time Solomon held a feast, and all Israel with him, a great congregation, from the entering in of Hamath unto the river of Egypt, before the LORD our God, seven days and seven days, even fourteen days."
This seventh month should be Jesus' birthday. This eleventh year from Solomon's first year in 1044 BC = the seventh year of building from 1041 BC = 1033 BC.
Back 37 years from 1033 BC is 1070 BC. Jesus lived 38 years. From 1068 BC to Jesus' sacrifice, April 3, 33 AD is 1100 years.
Back 38 years from 1033 BC is 1071 BC = 50 year jubiles to Jesus beginning his ministry about September 9, 29 AD, or October 7, 29 AD. From 1033 BC 13 years till Solomon finished his house is 1021 BC = 50 year jubiles to Jesus beginning his ministry September 9, 29 AD or October 7, 29 AD.
"The Seder Olam shows Solomon's Temple stood for exactly 403 years."
From 1034 BC to 591 BC is 443 years, forty years left out.
Thus, Solomon's temple was finished in the eighth month of 1034 BC.
Joshua's long day was probably the 21st day of the seventh month, August 10, 1241 BC, and the southern conquest of Palestine that followed.
Joshua's continued campaign to the south from Gibeon continued from the 21st day of the seventh month, August 10, 1241 BC, into the eighth month. The temple was seven years in building from Solomon's fourth year in 1041 BC = 240th year from the Exodus in 1281 BC.
Solomon's first year be in 1045 BC = the 49 year jubile to Jesus' sacrifice. The 50th jubile would begin that 1041 BC from Joshua's conquest in 1241 BC. Thus, the first year of Solomon be 1044 BC, just after the 49 year jubile 1045 BC from 1241 BC.
Thus, from the finish of the temple in the seventh year, that is seven and half years, Solomon's 11th year, 1034 BC to Jesus' birth in 7 BC = 1026 years. From Jacob and his family sojourning in Egypt, from the full moon, Sunday, April 3, 2307 BC to the Exodus Friday, March 30, 1281 BC = the same 1026 years. And the same full moon April 3, 2307 BC as Jesus' sacrifice April 3, 33 AD.
The full moon Sunday, April 3, 2307 is like the full moon when Jesus went to the cross, Friday, April 3, 33 AD and Jesus rose from the dead Sunday, April 5, 33 AD.
The selfsame day could also be the day of the week, that is Friday. the Sojourn into Egypt Friday, April 1, 2307 BC to the Exodus Friday, March 30, 1281 BC. Back from Egyptian Sothis new year, July 16, from new years in year 430 from 2737 BC. 2307 BC is 430 / 4 = 107 days is March 31 = both Friday, April 1, 2307 BC and Friday, March 30, 1281 BC.
Exodus 12:41 "And it came to pass at the end of the four hundred and thirty years, even the selfsame day it came to pass, that all the hosts of the LORD went out from the land of Egypt."
The Babylonian number base was 60. So to write 240 years would look like 4 X 60, like our 4 X 100 years. So, when the Bible was recorded after the captivity the 240 years may have been misprinted 400 years.
Then in the Septuagint 40 less years appear than 480 years = 440 years; = probably 240 years that became 440 years; should be 240 years. After the Hebrew version, that is more recent than the Greek Septuagint, was changed 40 more years to 480 years. From the Exodus in 1281 BC to Solomon's fourth year 1041 BC are 240 years.
Likewise Adam in year 700 in the Septuagint, Genesis 5:4, 4668 BC = 1362 years to Noah's flood, Ancient Book of the Jubilees, page 30; = the 27 jubiles and five weeks, fifth day (27 X 49) + 35 + 5 = 1362 years + 3307 BC = 4670 BC; in the book of jubilees, to Noah's flood in year 600 = 3307 BC.
Thus, from the first tabernacle after the Exodus out of Egypt to the building of the temple are 240 years.
From this eleventh year = 1033 BC in the eighth month, to Jesus' birth 7 BC in the seventh month, are 1026 years. From the Sojourn of Jacob in year 430 Egyptian Sothis, 2307 BC to the Exodus at the end of the Egyptian Sothis cycle, 1281 BC, are also 1026 years.
Thus, was the ark of the covenant moved into the Temple in the seventh month, about the day of Atonement when the High Priest went into the Holy of Holies where the ark was, and the Feast of Tabernacles.
The ark of the covenant was last seen at the destruction of Jerusalem, on the seventh day of the fifth month, September 7, 591 BC.
"The signs of the second Jubilee are 17 signs..the signs of the third Jubilee are 16 signs"

Thus 3 X 16 + 3 X 17 + 3 X 16 + 3 X 17 + 3 X 17 + 3 X 16 + 3 X 17 + 2 = 350 years.
Genesis 9:28 "And Noah lived after the flood three hundred and fifty years."
Or 20 years they wandered from this 591 BC to 571 BC, then 350 years in jubile to 221 BC, then 250 years to Jesus speaking from Isaiah 61 in Luke 4.
The end of the warring states period in China was in 221 BC.
There are 350 years from 322 BC to Jesus speaking from Isaiah 61 in Luke 4 to fulfill the 50 year Jubilee. Alexander the Great died not in 323 BC, but in 312 BC = the omen of the sun miracle in China = the shadow from the sundial lengthened by 10 cubits and rose one cubit.
"The solar eclipse, Year 2 of (king) Philip, (month VI). The 28th, around 3 deg before sunset, solar eclipse...It set eclipsed."
Historical Eclipses and Earth's Rotation. F. Richard Stephenson. p.79
Here you see the correct date for the solar eclipse, also for before sunset. Philip III reigned not from 323 BC, his 2d year not 322 BC. But his 2d year and this solar eclipse 12 years more recent, in August 15, 310 BC. The first month in February of 310 BC = the 6th month August 15, 310 BC. 12 years more recent than 322 BC.
Here you see the same month VI counting from the first month March/April, 12 years more recent than 322 BC. Alexander the Great died not in 323 BC but 12 years more recent in 312 BC. Thus, Philip's first year not 323 BC but 311 BC, his 2d year 310 BC, = the 49 year jubile, and his second year and this solar eclipse August 15, 310 BC.
The solar eclipse was total, thus the statement the sun set.
Or God moved the sun around the earth at the speed of light, and the sun greatly dimmed set while traveling at the speed of light.
"Until the late fourth century BC, years were counted from the accession of each ruler, but from 311 BC, the start of the reign of Seleucus I a continuous system of numbering was adopted."
"The precise date of the Seleucid era adopted in Babylon was 1 Nisannu (i.e. April 3) in 311 BC."
Historical Eclipses and Earth's Rotation, F Richard Stephenson. p.115.
Either this is the correct date, and the year of the sun miracle of the shadow of the sun suddenly lengthening ten cubits in China, or this is 11 years more recent.
Wednesday, April 3, 311 BC was the first visibility of the new moon. Tuesday, April 2, 300 BC was the first visibility of the moon. Thus, this date chronology 11 years more recent works perfectly.
Here you can see the two records are almost identicle = the April 2, 300 BC = the chronology must be moved forward 11 years = the precise date of the Seleucid era:
Here you see the correct date 11 years more recent April 2, 300 BC. Note: April 3, 311 BC and April 2, 310 BC. This 11 years, is very like the solar eclipse in Philip III 2d year, 12 years, more recent August 15, 310 BC.
The sun miracle in 312 BC when the shadow of the sun was lengthened ten cubits = the sun on the other side of earth and earth in a reverse orbit, and on the anniversary of the event the sun may move back in this 310 BC.
Alexander the Great may have died on the new moon June 9, 312 BC. This solar eclipse not in 323 BC but 11 years more recent on this lunar day 28 = the new moon, the VI month may be a sun miracle June 9, 312 BC.
Only Alexander the Great died the first year of Philip. So, this solar eclipse in Philip's second year should be in 311 BC or 310 BC.
The eclipse record was for the VI month = August. 12 years more recent than 322 BC = August 15, 310 BC.
Alexander the Great must have died in 312 BC on the sun miracle in China, where the shadow from the gnomon lengthened more than ten cubits and rose one cubit.
Thus, Alexander the Great died not on the new moon, Sunday, June 10, 323 BC, but on the new moon, Saturday, June 9, 312 BC. Thus, the cuniform record would appear identical for 312 BC, even the day of the week, Saturday or Sunday would be the same date.
"In his (King Yin's) second year, 312 BC, in the country of Ts'e, the ground where they measured the length of the sun's shadow lengthened more than ten cubits, and was elevated a cubit. Wei made Chang E its prime minister...In his 3d year,..in the 5th month, Chang E died...In the 6th year, there were great rains and violent winds. The waters of the Ho overflowed Swan-tsaou. Shoo-chang of Ts'oo came with a force to have a meeting with us, and encamped at Seang-k'ew. In his 7th year (307 BC), Teih Chang came to the rescue of Ch'ing, and encamped at Nan-keuh."
The Chineses Classics. p.176.
"Note: We have had the account of a similar phenomenon before, tho' (the characters for lengthened) here occasions difficulty."
That is, the sudden movement of the sun to lengthen the shadow is difficult to explain.
You can see the goat character beneath "one cubit" inside the name Chang E. The words "Wei made Chang E its prime minister."
Chang E was the princess that ascended to the far side of the moon when the sun stood still for nine days when Yao was made emperor in 2315 BC.
The E goat:
Some sun dials in China are very large. Some are several feet tall and some twenty feet long. Other sun dials in China are some thirty feet tall = the shadow lengthened by 100 cubits. See Science and Civilization in China, Astronomy, page 301.
The Chinese Classics, The Bamboo Books. p.175.
You can see the same characters below. The six cubits may mean the shadow lengthened six cubits and rose one inch, like above.
"He had a dragon contenance, a large mouth, and a black body, six cubits, one inch long."
The Chinese Classics, Shun. p.114.
This description is of Shun who took over from Yao.
"In his 70th year, in the spring, in the 1st month, he caused the chief of the four mountains to convey to Shun of Yu his charge to succeed to the throne."
The Chinese Classics, p.113.
Shun appears in Yao's 70th year from spring of 2245 BC = what would become the Passover = the 38 years of Jesus' life backwards to 2207 BC. Shun ruled for 50 years from 2218 BC to 2168 BC. This depiction may be of his shadow = "the black body" or a shadow from a sun dial = a sudden movement of the sun, such as was described in in the Chinese Classics in 362 BC and 311 BC on 49 year jubiles.
2 Kings 20:8 "And Hezekiah said unto Isaiah, What shall be the sign that the LORD will heal me, and that I shall go up into the house of the LORD the third day?
20:9 And Isaiah said, This sign shalt thou have of the LORD, that the LORD will do the thing that he hath spoken: shall the shadow go forward ten degrees, or go back ten degrees?"
Ten degrees is like this ten cubits = ten steps = ten degrees,H4609 = ten hours.
H4609 מַעֲלָה ma‛ălâh mah-al-aw' Feminine of H4608; elevation, that is, the act (literally a journey to a higher place, figuratively a thought arising), or (concretely) the condition (literally a step or grade mark, figuratively a superiority of station); specifically a climactic progression (in certain Psalms): - things that come up, (high) degree, deal, go up, stair, step, story. Total KJV occurrences: 46
Here you see 2 Kings 20 in the Masoretic text:
Here you see 2 Kings 20 in the Leningrad Codex. You will notice the Hebrew letters both in the Aleppo Codex and the Leningrad Codex do not match the interlinear English / Hebrew Masoretic text very well. The third day shelosh in the third line:
Line by line comparison:
The Leningrad Codex "letter-text is not perfect, however, and contradicts its own masoretic apparatus in hundreds of places."
Line by line the third day in the Aleppo Codex:
Here you see 2 Kings 20 in the Aleppo Codex. The third day shelosh in the eighth line:
The word for returned = H7725 שׁוּב shûb shoob
There is an extra letter "bet" after "return" H7725 in the Leningrad Codex that was omitted in later copies. Then "it shall return ten steps" reads "it shall return from ten steps." = like the Dead Sea Scrolls of Isaiah 38:8 "degrees from degrees." 2 Kings 20:9 - There is no letter "bet" in the modern Hebrew Bible. The verse in 2 Kings 9:20: "or it shall return ten steps" should be "it shall return from ten steps"
The Masorah of the Former Prophets in the Leningrad Codex, Volume 6, 2 Kings. p.316.
Jeremiah 8:4 "Moreover thou shalt say unto them, Thus saith the LORD; Shall they fall, and not arise? shall he turn away, and not return?"
Thus the connection to the shadow of the sun returning.
Isaiah 38:8 "Behold,H2009 I will bring againH7725 (H853) the shadowH6738 of the degrees,H4609 whichH834 is gone downH3381 in the sunH8121 dialH4609 of Ahaz,H271 tenH6235 degreesH4609 backward.H322 So the sunH8121 returnedH7725 tenH6235 degrees,H4609 by whichH834 degreesH4609 it was gone down.H3381"
Thus, the same thing for King Yin as for Hezekiah, either the shadow was lengthened by ten cubits, or the shadow retreated ten cubits.
A sun miracle in 360 BC and 312 BC (311 BC) are in 49 year jubiles to Jesus' sacrifice, April 3, 33 AD. The sun miracle for Hezekiah the third day from Friday, on Sunday March 31, 703 BC, Hezekiah healed on the Sunday like the resurrection Sunday, is also on a 49 year jubile to Jesus' sacrifice Friday, April 3, 33 AD. Likewise for Hezekiah the sun's shadow retreated or lengthened 10 cubits.
Moving the sun to the other side of earth means moving the sun up or down simply because earth's axis is tilted 23°. Either move the sun 180° and then up or down to keep earth in the same season or move the sun to the path of the ecliptic = the zodiac. Either way the sun should appear to rise or fall. Nevertheless, the sun would appear at the same height as it did some hours before keeping earth in the same season.
There was a total solar eclipse in Sicily recorded in 310 BC August 15, the eclipse of Agathocles, that probably is right, and the stars came out.
"Agathocles, however, escaped under the darkness of the night, and made the African coast after a six-day's voyage. On the next morning after he left Syracuse we are told, both by Diodorus, Siculus and Justin, that an eclipse of the sun over shadowed them in such a way that the stars appeared as if it had been night"
Possibly this sudden darkness may have been from this sun miracle recorded in China about the same year. There should be a set of four sun miracles that year of 312 BC. Any one of those may have made the sun dark.
The total solar eclipse would make it so dark the stars came out for a few minutes. But moving the sun near the speed of light would make the stars come out, not for a minute or for the maximum totality of seven minutes, but for almost one hour.
Nevertheless, this total solar eclipse = the stars appeared, you can see passes directly over Sicily:
This is the account of the similar phenomenon of the shadow of the sundial being suddenly lengthened in 312 BC = we have seen this before, 360 BC, a 49 year jubile to 311 BC:
King Heen's first year, 50th of cycle 60, in 367 BC = 400 years to Jesus' sacrifice April 3, 33 AD.
"In his (King Heen) 5th year (362 BC), it rained peih stones in Ch'ing. Some ground there suddenly became longer by 100 cubits and more, and higher by a cubit and a half."
The Chinese Classics. p.171.
'Some ground suddenly became longer than 100 cubits and higher by a cubit and a half" means God must have moved the sun at about 90% of the speed of light = suddenly, so that the shadow of the sundial lengthened 100 cubits, very like when God moved the sun 10 steps backwards in the sun dial of Ahaz for Hezekiah.
The character for "rained" is on the top left.
360 BC was a 49 year jubile. 311 BC was a 49 year jubile.
A sun miracle in 361 BC and the sun move back one year later in 360 BC. A sun miracle in 312 BC and the sun move back on 311 BC.
Thus, perhaps a similar sun miracle 49 years before 312 BC. Peih stones were a disc of jade that was dropped in the river when there was a sun miracle.
318 BC would be Alexander the Great's first year of six. Alexander the great ruled from 318 BC to 312 BC. From 318 BC + 32 = 350 years, 7 X 50 years, to Jesus' sacrifice. From 311 BC + 32(33 AD) = 343 years = 7 X 49 year jubiles to Jesus' sacrifice April 3, 33 AD.
"In his (King Shin-Tsing) 1st year, which was sin-chow (38th of cycle 60 = 319 BC)"
The Chinese Classics. p.175.
There may have been a sun miracle that year in 319 BC the Chinese took for an omen for a new emperor. The same sun miracle may mark the beginning of the reign of Alexander the Great.
Here are 49 year jubile dates that match sun miracles and events: Jesus' crucifixion April 3, 33 AD, 17 BC, 66 BC, 115 BC, 164 BC, 311 BC, 458 BC, 507 BC, 556 BC, 605 BC, 654 BC, 703 BC, 752 BC, 801 BC, 850 BC, 899 BC, 948 BC, 997 BC, 1046 BC, 1095 BC, 1193 BC, 1242 BC, 1732 BC, 2368 BC, 2467 BC.
"In his 18th year, (from 965 BC = 948 BC) in the spring, in the 1st month, he dwelt in the palace of Che, where the princes came and did homage"
The Chinese Classics, p. 151.
Thus, a 49 year jubile at the time of the Passover, the first month, are even 49 year jubiles to Jesus' sacrifice at the Passover.
2 Chronicles 8:1 "And it came to pass at the end of twenty years, wherein Solomon had built the house of the LORD, and his own house,"
Thus, at the end of twenty years counting from Solomon's fourth year would be 1021 BC. The fifty year jubile from 1241 BC to 22 BC to 29 AD when Jesus began his ministry.
2 Chronicles 8:16 "Now all the work of Solomon was prepared unto the day of the foundation of the house of the LORD, and until it was finished. So the house of the LORD was perfected."
1 Kings 6:38 "And in the eleventh year, in the month Bul, which is the eighth month, was the house finished throughout all the parts thereof, and according to all the fashion of it. So was he seven years in building it."
This seventh year from 1041 BC would be 1034 BC. From 1034 BC to Jesus' birth in 7 BC is 1027 years. 21 X 49 = 1029 years. From the Sojourn into Egypt in 2307 BC to the Exodus in 1281 BC is the same 1026 years. From Noah's flood in 3307 BC to the Exodus in 1281 BC is 2026 years.
1 Kings 7:1 "But Solomon was building his own house thirteen years, and he finished all his house."
This 20th year from 1041 BC = 1021 BC = 1000 years to 21 BC which began the last 50 year jubile which Jesus fulfilled when he read Isaiah 61:1 in Luke 4:18 Friday September 9, 29 AD or Saturday October 7, 29 AD.
John 2:19 "Jesus answered and said unto them, Destroy this temple, and in three days I will raise it up."
2:20 Then said the Jews, Forty and six years was this temple in building, and wilt thou rear it up in three days?"
Herod began to rebuild the temple in 18 BC. Thus, 46 years later is the spring of 30 AD. Three years later was Jesus' sacrifice April 3, 33 AD , 46 + 3 = 49 = the 49 year jubile from the beginning of time, from Adam in 4672 BC in the year of the world, Annos Mundi, 700 from 5368 BC = 5400 years to Jesus' sacrifice.
This 5400 BC was the time early farmers migrated into Europe from this same area of Turkey and Armenia.
Likewise, according to Josephus, Joshua spoke in Joshua 24 in the 20th year of conquest in 1221 BC.
Genesis 14:5 "And in the fourteenth year came Chedorlaomer, and the kings that were with him, and smote the Rephaims in Ashteroth Karnaim, and the Zuzims in Ham, and the Emims in Shaveh Kiriathaim,"
Genesis 14:14 "And when Abram heard that his brother was taken captive, he armed his trained servants, born in his own house, three hundred and eighteen, and pursued them unto Dan.
14:15 "And he divided himself against them, he and his servants, by night, and smote them, and pursued them unto Hobah, which is on the left hand of Damascus.
14:16 And he brought back all the goods, and also brought again his brother Lot, and his goods, and the women also, and the people.
14:17 And the king of Sodom went out to meet him after his return from the slaughter of Chedorlaomer, and of the kings that were with him, at the valley of Shaveh, which is the king's dale.
14:18 And Melchizedek king of Salem brought forth bread and wine: and he was the priest of the most high God.
14:19 And he blessed him, and said, Blessed be Abram of the most high God, possessor of heaven and earth:
14:20 And blessed be the most high God, which hath delivered thine enemies into thy hand. And he gave him tithes of all."
Abraham entered Canaan in his 75th year from 2607 BC = 2532 BC; 14 years to this 49 year jubile in 2516 BC = this battle and the coming of Melchizedek.
The 49 year jubile to Jesus' sacrifice was on the full moon, Saturday, April 4, 2516 BC = Jesus' sacrifice April 3, 33 AD.
"for the final days conserns the captives whose teachers have been hidden and kept secret from the inheritance of Melchizedek, for they are the inheritance who will make them return. And liberty shall be proclaimed to them to free them from the debt of all their iniquities. And this will happen in the first week of the jubilee that occurs after the nine jubilees. And the Day of Atonement is the end of the tenth jubilee, in which Atonement shall be made for all the sons of light, and for the men of the lot of Melchizedek.."
The Dead Sea Scrolls. 11QMelch.
This 14th year may have counted just before Abraham came to the Promised Land. Then Abraham should be about 87 years old, 12 years + 75 years old, 2520 BC. Then in 50 year jubiles to Jesus fulfillment, the release from captivity, September 9, 29 AD, or October 7, 29 AD. Or 2516 BC and 52 X 49 year jubiles to Jesus' sacrifice April 3, 33 AD.
This battle of Abraham is like the battle of Gideon. Both battles were fought at night, both battles were fought by about 300 men, and in both battles they were divided against the enemy. There may have been a sun miracle also. Both battles may have been fought on the 49 year jubile, 2516 BC and 1241 BC.
Ten jubiles back from 2516 BC = 3006 BC = 300 years after Noah's flood in 3307 BC. 52 X 49 = 2548 years = from 2516 BC to Jesus' sacrifice April 3, 33 AD.
Genesis 16:16 "And Abram was fourscore and six years old, when Hagar bare Ishmael to Abram."
The 50 year jubile in 2521 BC = Abraham 85 years old = 51 X 50 year jubiles to Jesus speaking from Isaiah 61 in Luke 4 = the release of the jubile on Yom Kippur.
"the sons of light" may refer to a sun miracle on Yom Kippur September 9, 29 AD or October 7, 29 AD.
Nevertheless, the bread and the wine Melchizedek offered is a parallel to Jesus' sacrifice.
Genesis 14:14 "And when Abram heard that his brother was taken captive, he armed his trained servants, born in his own house, three hundred and eighteen, and pursued them unto Dan.
14:15 "And he divided himself against them, he and his servants, by night, and smote them, and pursued them unto Hobah, which is on the left hand of Damascus."
Judges 7:16 "And he divided the three hundred men into three companies, and he put a trumpet in every man's hand, with empty pitchers, and lamps within the pitchers."
Judges 7:19 "So Gideon, and the hundred men that were with him, came unto the outside of the camp in the beginning of the middle watch; and they had but newly set the watch: and they blew the trumpets, and brake the pitchers that were in their hands.
7:20 And the three companies blew the trumpets, and brake the pitchers, and held the lamps in their left hands, and the trumpets in their right hands to blow withal: and they cried, The sword of the LORD, and of Gideon."
Leviticus 25:9 "Then shalt thou cause the trumpet of the jubile 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.
25:10 And ye shall hallow the fiftieth year, and proclaim liberty throughout all the land unto all the inhabitants thereof: it shall be a jubile unto you; and ye shall return every man unto his possession, and ye shall return every man unto his family."
Genesis 14:16 "And he brought back all the goods, and also brought again his brother Lot, and his goods, and the women also, and the people."
Thus, this 2515 BC would be the 50th year, the jubile year to return the goods.
52 X 49 year jubiles from this 2516 BC = Jesus gave his life at the final jubile, April 3, 33 AD.
"In his, Seang, 28th year (1914 BC, rather 2094 BC), Han-tshu made his son Keaou murder the emperor."
A sun miracle may have been the omen to slay the emperor.
"the heir to the line of Hea, Shaou K'ang, was born in the year ping-yin, (1914 BC + 180 = 2094 BC). He fled from Yew-jing to Yu. In the year yih-yew (1895 BC + 180 = 2075 BC) in emperor Seang's 47th year. There is a 20 year gap to emperor Shaou-K'ang in 1874 BC (2054 BC).
The Chinese Classics
There are 38 years after this 28th year of emperor Seang in 1914 BC (2094 BC) to emperor Shaou-K'ang in 1874 BC (2054 BC), that may indicate sun miracles 38 years apart.
9 X 49 = 441. 2516 BC - 441 = 2075 BC. A sun miracle in this 2075 BC, ninth jubile, may have been the omen for a new emperor. There would be 43 X 49 years from 2075 BC to Jesus' sacrifice April 3, 33 AD.
"in his 5th year (2026 BC), he removed from Yuen to Laou-k'ew."
The Chinese Classics
490 years from Melchizedek in 2516 BC is this 2026 BC when there may be a sun miracle that was taken as an omen to move, again.
Genesis 14:18 "And Melchizedek king of Salem brought forth bread and wine: and he was the priest of the most high God."
The bread and wine represented Jesus' sacrifice.
Matthew 4:17 "From that time Jesus began to preach, and to say, Repent: for the kingdom of heaven is at hand."
Yom Kippur was a 24 hour fast of repentence.
Luke 4:18 "The Spirit of the Lord is upon me, because he hath anointed me to preach the gospel to the poor; he hath sent me to heal the brokenhearted, to preach deliverance to the captives, and recovering of sight to the blind, to set at liberty them that are bruised,
4:19 To preach the acceptable year of the Lord.
4:20 And he closed the book, and he gave it again to the minister, and sat down. And the eyes of all them that were in the synagogue were fastened on him.
4:21 And he began to say unto them, This day is this scripture fulfilled in your ears."
Isaiah 61:1 "The Spirit of the Lord GOD is upon me; because the LORD hath anointed me to preach good tidings unto the meek; he hath sent me to bind up the brokenhearted, to proclaim liberty to the captives, and the opening of the prison to them that are bound;
61:2 To proclaim the acceptable year of the LORD,"
Seven more days was the 17th day of the seventh month, and probably was Jesus' birthday, September 16, 29 AD.
Then that year before the 50th year = jubile = September 10, 29 AD, was the 49th year = fallow year. Then the Gospels begin with Jesus' ministry in the 49th year about the Passover six month before this Saturday, September 10, 29 AD. People would be free to hear the gospel because they would not be sowing their land in these two fallow years.
Isaiah 61 must have been written about the time of Cyrus. And probably on the 50 year jubile, from 522 BC = 70 years from the captivity September 7, 591 BC, at the first attempt to rebuild the temple, to foretell the final Yom Kippur and jubile spoken by Jesus September 9, 29 AD, or October 7, 29 AD.
Josiah's eighth year from 643 BC; is 635 BC, his 12th year is 631 BC, his 18th year is 625 BC, his 31st year is 612 BC when he died at 38 years of age.
In Ezekiel 1:1 The fifth year of Jehoiakim was the 30th year in 610 BC in 50 year jubiles from Joshua's long day in 1241 BC, and again the count of the 50 year jubile in the time of Cyrus in the return from the 70 year captivity in 521 BC.
"In 538 BC he (Cyrus) decreed that the temple in Jerusalem should be rebuilt at his own expense and that the treasures should be returned to the house of God. In 537 BC more than 40,000 of them undertook what they declared to be the 'Second Exodus' and joyfully trekked back to Jerusalem and to the land flowing with milk and honey."
Persians, Lloyd Llowellyn-Jones, The Age of the Great Kings. p.71.
537 BC should be 13 years more recent, and be 524 BC, and the return be 521 BC.
Friday, June 1, 631 BC was both the fifth day of the week and the fifth lunar day of the fourth lunar month.
Zephaniah 1:1 "The word of the LORD which came unto Zephaniah the son of Cushi, the son of Gedaliah, the son of Amariah, the son of Hizkiah, in the days of Josiah the son of Amon, king of Judah.
1:2 I will utterly consume all things from off the land, saith the LORD."
Zephaniah 3:20 "At that time will I bring you again, even in the time that I gather you: for I will make you a name and a praise among all people of the earth, when I turn back your captivity before your eyes, saith the LORD."
Ezra 3:1 "And when the seventh month was come, and the children of Israel were in the cities, the people gathered themselves together as one man to Jerusalem."
Thus, the seventh month, tenth day, Yom Kippur, was kept on the 50 year jubile about 521 BC = 11 X 50 year jubiles to Jesus fulfillment, on Yom Kippur, September 9, 29 AD, or October 7, 29 AD.
August 10, 1241 BC was 1234 years before Jesus' birth September 12, 7 BC.
There was 1026 years from Jacob entering Egypt in 2307 BC, year 430 Egyptian sothis from 2737 BC, to the Exodus of Moses at the end of the 1456 year Egyptian calendar in 1281 BC.
There was 2026 years from Noah's flood in 3307 BC to Moses crossing the Red/Reed Sea in 1281 BC.
2 Peter 2:5 "And spared not the old world, but saved Noah the eighth person, a preacher of righteousness, bringing in the flood upon the world of the ungodly;"
There were eight people saved on the ark, perhaps out of 8 million or 80 million on earth = one in a million = about the same ratio today. Not only men, but woman, such as I3, H1g1, H2a2, were descended from Israel as well.
The Chinese Bible depicts the word fellowship used in Noah's flood, Genesis 6, 7, and 8; as 8 people in a boat, simply a picture of a boat with eight heads.
Between the Caspian and Black Sea there were many people at the time of Noah's flood.
There are about 80 million people descended from Israel.
Romans 11:4 "But what saith the answer of God unto him? I have reserved to myself seven thousand men, who have not bowed the knee to the image of Baal.
11:5 Even so then at this present time also there is a remnant according to the election of grace."
1 Kings 20:15 "Then he numbered the young men of the princes of the provinces, and they were two hundred and thirty two: and after them he numbered all the people, even all the children of Israel, being seven thousand."
Even now there are about 7,000 Christians from distant Jewish ancestry, mostly R1b1 Jewish ancestry from Scotland. Nevertheless, some of our most excellent ministers are J2 and J1 Jewish ancestry. And many are R1b1 Jewish ancestry.
In one study about 20% of Spanish people are descended from Sephardic Jewish people. Most of Spain is R1b1. Of people from Jewish communities in Portuagal 12% are J1 from Abraham, 24% are J2 - probably from Israel in Egypt from about 2000 BC, 28% are R1b1.
Only three percent in parts of the south of Spain is J1 from Abraham or eight percent in Syracuse Sicily. That means many Sephardic Jewish people must be, and are, R1b1 too. R1b1 Jewish came from the Netherlands to Scotland to Spain and to Latin America. Even the Ivan Hoe cluster migrated east up the Mediterranean and into the Balkans.
J1 19% ancestry from Adam from 4672 BC and Abraham from 2607 BC. J2a* 6%, or J21b 14%, ancestry from the Sojourn in Egypt from 2150 BC, 150 years after Jacob entered Egypt in 2307 BC. R1b1 Jewish ancestry and Cohen ancestry from 80 generations ago, or even 125 generations ago in 1750 BC. The first Jewish ancestor in the Netherlands was possibly from 100 BC, or more likely, after the captivity of Jerusalem in 85 AD at Cologne and in the Netherlands The 10% Ashkenazi R1b1 may be from one individual in 1750 BC.
Family tree dna told me my common ancestor to "Polhill 1", Kent, England, who lived in 605 AD, and shares a common ancestor from 1750 BC. 150 X 25 years = 3750 years. Or 125 X 30 years = 3750 years. 150 generations or 125 generations to 1750 BC. Then, J1 from Jacob in Egypt in 2307 BC, J2 in Egypt from 2150 BC, E1b1b1a from about 1500 BC in Egypt and then R1b1.
"Polhill 1" lived from 605 - 658 AD shares a common Y-DNA ancestor 1700 BC. His mother was J1c3f. A member of the Cohen Y-DNA page stated his mother was this J1c3f, possibly from a daughter of the tribe of Levi and possibly a descendant of Moses' sister Miriam. Abraham is J1, so J1c3f may be a Jewish daughter because the Y-DNA J1 is Jewish. Thus Pholhill may have been Jewish and thus had a Jewsih mother. Then by extension this common R1b1 Y-DNA ancestor in 1750 BC may have become Jewish.
"Lubeck", Germany, lived between 1295 AD - 1399 AD and shares a common ancestor who lived in 1850 BC. His mother's mtDNA was J1, probably from Israel.
"Santok", Poland, lived between 1000 AD to 1200 AD and shares a common ancestor who lived in 1850 BC. His mother's mtDNA was J1ca1, also probably from Israel.
The small Scottish cluster puts Bennett by Cochrane and Wilson. This is one big tree with one R1b1 Jewish ancestor. L48 began about 500 BC. The numbers for L48 are highest in the Netherlands and the most diversity in Eastern Europe = the origin probably in Eastern Europe.
Nevertheless, Family Tree DNA tells me there are few that have tested from about 400 BC. There are many that match the Y-DNA from 1850 BC. Thus, the common ancestor to this huge family tree from Scotland may be from this 1850 BC.
Y-chromosomal Aaron from Wikipedia: Dating:
"Subsequent calculations under the coalescent model for J1 haplotypes bearing the Cohanim motif gave time estimates that place the origin of this genealogy around 6,200 years ago (95% CI: 4.5–8.6 Kybp), earlier than previously thought, and well before the origin of Judaism (David Kingdom, ∼2.9 ybp).[14] The latest studies on the other hand have proposed coalescence estimates ranging between ~3,200 and ~2,570 years before present, which are in broad agreement with a progenitor who lived during the First Temple period.[3][4]"
Thus, Y-DNA Adam should be this same 4,500 BC. Y-DNA Aaron should be this same 1,300 BC.
This is the same 80 generations of R1b1 Jewish from the Netherlands. 23 years to a generation, and these people could have fled Israel from the Roman conquest of Jerusalem in 70 AD. However, over all descendants a generation is closer to 30 years, adding up to some time Before Christ.
The Romans, with their general Titus and with 60,000 soldiers, captured Jerusalem in 70 AD. And killed more than one million Jewish people there for the Passover. And took 90,000 Jewish people for slaves.
"Romans founded the old Cologne community in Germany in 85 AD. They imported Jewish people which knew arithmetic, reading, and writing to assist in its administration, either as captive slaves brought from the rebellion in Judea or as a paid workforce."
The Signs language of Adam
The 83 generations back to the first R1b1 L48 ancestor in the Netherlands may be to a family. Then the Jewish family may have arrived in 85 AD, but the common ancestor may be born some 100 years earlier.
There were very few Jewish people in the Netherlands before the first century AD.
William the Conqueror in 1066 AD imported Jewish people into England for their skill at accounting, for the King's business, and for this same reason.
A prayer of Moses:
Psalm 90:4 "For a thousand years in thy sight are but as yesterday when it is past, and as a watch in the night.
90:5 Thou carriest them away as with a flood; they are as a sleep: in the morning they are like grass which groweth up."
1000 years before Noah's flood was 4307 BC, 130 years after Adam died in 4437 BC. From Noah's flood in 3307 BC to the end of the Nile River flood, after seven years of plenty, the second year of famine, is Jacob entering Egypt in 2307 BC.
Thus, Solomon would be in his 38th year of reign in 1007 BC. Jesus was born in 7 BC and Jesus lived 38 years to 33 AD.
From David's birth in 1114 BC to the first captivity in 601 BC (the second in 591 BC) = 513 years = half of 1026 years.
Likewise, Joash's birth 100 years later in 914 BC Joash was made King in 907 BC = 900 years to Jesus' birth and his death 40 years later in 868 BC = 900 years to Jesus' sacrifice.
Joash's birth seven years before he became king in 907 BC may be like the year Annos Domini AD counting from 1 AD seven years after Jesus was born.
Likewise, David born 1114 BC and died at 70 in 1044 BC. The 49 year jubile to Jesus' sacrifice was in 1045 BC = 38 years to 1007 BC.
Adam died in year 930 Armenian Sothis, probably born in year 700 or year 800 = more likely Adam was born in year 700, and his life to almost the year 1000 was compared to a day.
The sothis calendar backs up one day every four years. In 1460 years the sothis calendar backs up a whole year. Thus, a day is like a thousand years in the sothis calendar. In duodecimal - the number 1000 is 1440 years (12 X 12 X 10) with 5 days; 5 X 4 = 20 years, left over.
Thus, this 1460 years is really 1461 years including this 365 days back to the beginning, July 16. From the first year in the Armenian Sothis calendar 5368 BC are 1461 years to the end of the calendar in 3907 BC = 3900 years = 78 X 50 year jubiles to Jesus' birth and 5400 years = 108 X 50 year jubiles from 5368 BC to Jesus' sacrifice.
Thus, 1000 duodecimal years equals one day.
From the beginning of the Armenian Sothis calendar in 5368 BC = 5400 years to Jesus' sacrifice April 3, 33 AD - to the end of the Armenian Sothis cycle in 3907 BC = 3900 years to Jesus' birth, about September 12, 7 BC. Thus, the Sothis cycle of 1460 years is like the life time of Jesus, from his crucifixion backwards to Jesus' birth.
The solar eclipse record was for this year 601 BC was on day 11 of cycle 60, when the solar eclipse took place on day 60 of cycle 60. Day 11 would be the Day of Atonement in Israel, the 10th day of the seventh Hebrew lunar month October 1, 601 BC. This was about the time Jehoiakim was taken into Babylon. He was 37 years in prison in Babylon till the death of Nebuchadezzar = the 38 years of Jesus' life.
From the first attempt to rebuild the temple in 520 BC to Jesus' birth in 7 BC = 513 years. From Solomon's completion of the temple in seven years from 1041 BC = 1034 BC = 513 years to the return after 70 years from 591 BC, and to begin building the temple again = 521 BC, from 521 BC to Jesus' birth in 7 BC is 513 years also. From Solomon's completion of the temple and of his own house 20 years from 1041 BC is also this 1021 BC. 1021 BC is 21 X 50 year jubiles to Jesus' reading Isaiah 61 in Luke 4 = the fulfillment of the 50 year jubile.
The second attempt began in Darius' second year, 507 BC = 500 years to Jesus' birth in 7 BC.
The first quarter moon as recorded in king Wan's dream is the same position the sun and moon were in one year after the fall of Jericho when the sun moved back by moving with earth's rotation and standing still at noon 12 hours for the battle of Merom. Thus, the sun move back 180° in those 12 hours February 4, 1240 BC, or February 5, 1239 BC, on the sixth lunar day and also the sixth lunar zodiac position of 28 divisions in Scorpius.
More likely, king Wan's dream was February 5, 1239 BC, the sixth day of the moon, the sixth lunar zodiac from the first of the 28 signs of the lunar zodiac = from Corvus to Scorpius.
"While the beginning of a day is dawn, a five-planet conjunction occurring at dawn, with a new moon, and the start of spring would truly be the beginning of all cycles, he said. For calendar makers, such a moment would also be an ideal starting point for counting days, months, years and planetary periods."
http://manetheren.cl.msu.edu/~vanhoose/astro/0001.html
The sun returning one year after the fall of Jericho would see a six day moon, a five planet conjunction as the planets moved out of the way of the moving sun at sunset, in year 36 of cycle 60 day 30 of cycle 60, and year 1 of king Wan. Or year 37 of cycle 60, day 24 of cycle 60, February 5, 1239 BC.
The day began at evening. So, after sunset on February 5, 1239 BC would begin day 5 of cycle 60. One more day is day 6 of cycle 60.
This conjunction in Libra/Fang/Scorpius the sixth day lunar day of the moon of the first month would give the incentive to find just this ideal line up = a conjunction at dawn of the first month.
A conjunction in this Libra/Fang/Scorpius above at dawn in the first month of spring could naturally occur in a normal orbit. The conjunction above at sunset in Scorpius/Fang/Libra in the first month of spring was only because of a reverse orbit and not normal. It is impossible for the sun to be in Virgo in spring.
After thousands of years it was determined such and ideal conjunction to begin the calendar never did happen.
Such a conjunction in 104 BC could not happen without a sun miracle.
Nevertheless, the sun miracle of Hanukkah, December 12, 164 BC so impressed the Chinese emperor Wen - the sun rose in the west to the meridian on China, he began his regnal count of 17 years, to year one. The meridian is the north - south line through the middle of the sky.
"Shih chi, 28.1383 records another "magic performance" by Hsin-yuan P'ing. After the sun had risen to the meridian once, he told the emperor, "I expect the sun to rise to the meridian twice [in one day]" After a while, the sun really rose to the meridian again. Liang Yu-sheng argues it was this incident that made Emperor Wen change the calendar."
The Grand Scribes Records, Volume II. p.176
"In his (Te-sin) 22nd year, in winter, he had great hunting along the Wei." "On the kea-tsze day, in the last month of Autumn, a red bird came to Fung..My ancestor, the recorder Ch'ow, divined once for Yu about hunting; and then he met with Kaou-yaou, - from an omen like that which has now occurred."
The Chinese Classics. p.139
"He burned the fish in sacrifice, and announced the event to Heaven. Lo! fire came down from heaven, and rested over Wang uh, gradually floating away into a red bird, with a stalk of grain in its beak. The grain was in commemoration of the virtue of the prince Tseih; the fire was an auspicious response from heaven to the burnt offering of the fish.
The Chinese Classics. p.144
This sun miracle in Te-sin's 22d year may have occurred on November 16, 1207 BC on day one of cycle 60.
Or this may be day one of cycle 60 September 21, 1207 BC on day 17 of the lunar month - only September was the second month of Chinese Autumn, not the last month.
Most likely winter began 45 days before the winter solstice December 30, in 1207 BC, and winter began in November.
The sun must return on the same date either one or two or more years later, and earth flow out of the reverse orbit of the sun.
Then the sun may return two years later on the lunar eclipse, September 24, 1205 BC.
Likewise, a sun miracle on Jesus' birth, September 12, 7 BC, the 17th day of the 7th month = two years later the sun return, on the full moon and lunar eclipse, September 15, 5 BC. In both cases the sun return three days later.
This may have been a prophesy of Jesus' birth in September 13, 7 BC also on day 17 of the lunar month. The ark of Noah rested on the mountains on the 17th day of the 7th month. The five planets were in conjunction. Only this was fall and not spring. Even king Wan's dream was spring but not a new moon. Thus, the desire to find a grand epoch, a beginning of cycles. The beginning of cycles would also include the sun moving 180° in spring to Virgo and the sun passing from east to west through the year in the reverse orbit. Thus, spring would be in the east.
Back from the lunar eclipse of September 24, 1205 BC, back two years and half an orbit 365 + 365 + 186 = the full moon Friday, March 22, 1207 BC.
"In his, Te-sin, 21st year, in the spring, in the first month, the princes went to Chow to do homage."
The Chinese Classics, The Annals of the Bamboo Books, p.139
The first month = the full moon, Friday, March 22, 1207 BC = the Passover in Israel. An omen of a sun miracle, such as the sun being darkened like it was when Jesus was on the cross, may cause "the princes to do homage."
September 24, 1207 BC is equal to September 12, 7 BC because the Julian calendar adds one day every 128 years. 1207 / 128 = 10 days, September 23 - 10 days = September 13, 7 BC. Likewise, Jesus' sacrifice also on a Friday, April 3, 33 AD.
No solar eclipses occur in China in Te-sin's 22nd year = 1206 BC or his 21st year = 1207 BC, or within plus or minus three years. There is one for January 21, 1210 BC for day 31 of cycle 60 but this is not day one of cycle sixty. The red bird can only mean the phoenix, and thus this 22nd year of Te-sin on day one can only mean a sun miracle.
The total solar eclipse of October 30, 1207 BC in Israel was not just before Merneptah's stele that stated Israel was a widow and wasted, because Merneptah died about April 5, 1281 BC. Thus, the total solar eclipse of October 30, 1207 BC had nothing to do with Joshua's long day of August 10, 1241 BC. Joshua's long day states a Hebrew word the sun was silent or dimmed. The meaning of the word in the context means to stand still in the sky. And to leave the same daily coral layer in the sea the sun may have been dimmed also. The same day should be the battle by Gideon, and Isaiah 8 and Isaiah 9 describe that day as a day of dimness.
Nevertheless, there was a lunar eclipse king Wan recorded in China on day 13 of cycle 60, September 24, 1205 BC and there may have been a sun miracle in 1207 BC = 1200 years to Jesus' birth September 12, 7 BC.
Pharaoh Merneptah died in April 3, 1281 BC not May 2, 1205 BC = Israel already in Palestine in 1285 BC and Merneptah destroyed those in southern Israel in Merneptah's 5th year recorded in Merneptha's stela. Pharaoh Ramses died in 1291 BC = the king of Egypt that died:
Exodus 2:23 "And it came to pass in process of time, that the king of Egypt died:"
Merneptah reigned from this 1291 BC ten years = the Exodus in 1281 BC.
Isaiah 8:22 "And they shall look unto the earth; and behold trouble and darkness, dimness of anguish; and they shall be driven to darkness.
9:1 Nevertheless the dimness shall not be such as was in her vexation, when at the first he lightly afflicted the land of Zebulun and the land of Naphtali, and afterward did more grievously afflict her by the way of the sea, beyond Jordan, in Galilee of the nations.
9:2 The people that walked in darkness have seen a great light: they that dwell in the land of the shadow of death, upon them hath the light shined.
9:3 Thou hast multiplied the nation, and not increased the joy: they joy before thee according to the joy in harvest, and as men rejoice when they divide the spoil.
9:4 For thou hast broken the yoke of his burden, and the staff of his shoulder, the rod of his oppressor, as in the day of Midian."
The sun angel, the phoenix and the dragon, seen moving the sun in China were recorded as being too bright to look at.
Ezekiel 1:14 "And the living creatures ran and returned as the appearance of a flash of lightning."
God used miracles so people would know this was the Messiah, his Son.
John 10:38 "But if I do, though ye believe not me, believe the works; that ye may know and believe, that the Father is in me, and I in him."
For Galilee to be in the shadow of death the sun may have stood still on the western horizon or the eastern horizon. Then there may be darkness for three days like there was darkness in Egypt for three days.
Joshua asked God to "damam" the sun = dim and stop the sun. On a dim and cloudy day one can easily see, and fight a battle. This day of dimness at this battle with Midian by Gideon may be the same dim sun of Joshua's long day. To leave the same daily coral layer as on a normal day the sun may have been needed to be dimmed.
Thus the sun stopped over Gibeon = the sun was motionless over Gibeon, and the moon stayed stuck over Ajalon.
Judges 8:13 "And Gideon the son of Joash returned from battle before the sun ascended"
In the Septuagint: "returned from the ascent of Chares". Chares = heres = the crimson sun = the same as shining = a great light. Also, sun burn, sun itch. Thus, the sun may have been seven times brighter when the sun rose suddenly in the east causing sun burn.
H8438 תֹּלַעַת תּוֹלַעַת תּוֹלֵעָה תּוֹלָע tôlâ‛ tôlê‛âh tôla‛ath tôla‛ath to-law', to-lay-aw', (3,4) to-lah'-ath From H3216; a maggot (as voracious); specifically (often with ellipsis of H8144) the crimson grub, but used only (in this connection) of the color from it, and cloths dyed therewith: - crimson, scarlet, worm. Total KJV occurrences: 43
The phoenix was reborn from a worm.
Psalm 22:6 "But I am a worm,H8438 and no man; a reproach of men, and despised of the people."
The phoenix name means purple/red bird. Thus, the word "Chares" may refer to the phoenix as well as the sun.
Isaiah 1:18 "Come now, and let us reason together, saith the LORD: though your sins be as scarlet,H8144 they shall be as white as snow; though they be red like crimson,H8438 they shall be as wool."
Deuteronomy 14:11 "Of all clean birds ye shall eat."
Thus, the phoenix would be a clean "bird"
Judges 1:35 "But the Amorites would dwell in mount Heres in Aijalon, and in Shaalbim: yet the hand of the house of Joseph prevailed, so that they became tributaries."
Mount Heres by the Ajalon Valley may refer to the sun = Heres.
Mount = ascent.
Heres = sun.
Judges 1:35 may equal Juges 8:13 "And Gideon returned before the sun, Heres, ascended".
Possibly the sun set in the east on Joshua's long day, Saturday, August 10, 1241 BC. Then Sunday, August 11, 1241 BC the sun may suddenly rise in the east. Thus, both Joshua and Gideon would see the sun suddenly ascend on a Sunday. Perhaps, on Sunday, August 11, 1241 BC and on Sunday, February 4, 1241 BC. Thus both times the sun would be called "Heres" = ascending sun.
Or, Gideon's battle, Israelites already in the land in the north, be the day of the crossing the river Jordan, February 4, 1241 BC, and the sun ascended suddenly in the east February 5, 1241 BC.
Gideon's battle may be Sunday, February 4, 1241 BC = the next day be Joshua 8:13 when the sun suddenly ascended. Then Joshua's long day be the 21st day of the seventh month at the last great day of the feast of the fruits, the feast of tabernacles, the in gathering, Saturday, August 10, 1241 BC.
The borders in Joshua 19 seem to describe the area south of Joshua's battle in Gibeon with the valley of Ajalon. Nevertheless, the ascent of the sun may be associated with Joshua's battle, Joshua's long day. The ascent of the sun from the west = Dan to the west of Benjamin, on Joshua's long day may be the meaning of the mount of Heres.
Here again Aijalon in Zebulun is connected to Heres the sun (Timnathheres)= "Sun, stand thou still upon Gibeon; and thou, Moon, in the valley of Ajalon."
Timnath-serah = abundant portion, was renamed Timnath-heres = portion of the sun, to commemorate the sun standing still for Joshua.
Judges 2:8 "And Joshua the son of Nun, the servant of the LORD, died, being an hundred and ten years old.
2:9 And they buried him in the border of his inheritance in Timnathheres, in the mount of Ephraim, on the north side of the hill Gaash."
Thus, you see also Timnathheres. Joshua may have chosen the name Heres, a place nearby the battle of Gibeon, after the sun miracle on Joshua's long day. Also, the next day, Sunday, August 25, 1241 BC, or the next day from Joshua's long day Saturday, August 10, 1241 BC, be Sunday, August 11, 1241 BC, should be a sudden ascent of the sun in the east when the sun moved back and earth flowed back into a reverse orbit of the sun.
Joshua 24:30 "And they buried him in the border of his inheritance in Timnathserah, which is in mount Ephraim, on the north side of the hill of Gaash."
"mount Heres" could mean "the ascent of the sun." = the sun ascending from the west or the east. Most likely mount Heres equals Judges 8:13 "And Gideon the son of Joash returned from battle before Heres ascended."
Sera is the reverse of the spelling heres.
H8556 תִּמְנַת סֶרַח תִּמְנַת חֶרֶס timnath cheres timnath serach tim-nath kheh'-res, tim-nath seh'-rakh From H8553 and H2775; portion of (the sun; Timnath Cheres, a place in Palestine: - Timnath-heres, Timnath-serah.
Thus, Timnathserah and Timnathsera may point to earth in a revese orbit around the sun = a reverse zodiac.
Timnathheres = portion of the sun. Timnathserah = abundant portion.
Ephesians 3:19 "And to know the love of Christ, which passeth knowledge, that ye might be filled with all the fulness of God.
3:20 Now unto him that is able to do exceeding abundantly above all that we ask or think, according to the power that worketh in us,"
God answered Joshua's prayer. He moved the sun around the earth for 12 hours, or more likely for 24 hours, with earth's rotation for a whole day, above all that Joshua asked. Thus, Joshua called his inheritance "portion of the sun" and "abundant portion".
Judges 14:18 "And the men of the city said unto him on the seventh day before the sun (heres) went down,"
The seventh day Jesus was in the tomb. Shortly after the sun went down, probably in the east, the sun would suddenly rise in the east.
Job 9:7 "Which commandeth the sun (heres), and it riseth not; and sealeth up the stars."
Amos 4:12 "Therefore thus will I do unto thee, O Israel: and because I will do this unto thee, prepare to meet thy God, O Israel.
4:13 For, lo, he that formeth the mountains, and createth the wind, and declareth unto man what is his thought, that maketh the morning darkness, and treadeth upon the high places of the earth, The LORD, The God of hosts, is his name."
The Friday night Jesus was in the tomb may have been a very long night, the sun not rising.
Psalm 112:4 "Unto the upright there ariseth light in the darkness: he is gracious, and full of compassion, and righteous."
"ariseth light" points to the resurrection sunrise.
"The people that walked in darkness have seen a great light:" may equal "the sun ascended" brilliantly in the east = Sunday, August 25, 1241 BC, or Sunday, August 11, 1241 BC = the resurrection Sunday sunrise when Jesus rose from the dead, April 5, 33 AD.
The fiftieth jubile, that is of cycle 50 years, must have been marked by a sun miracle about Yom Kippur when Jesus started his ministry, Friday, September 9, 29 AD. Or Friday, October 7, 29 AD.
Matthew 4:13 "And leaving Nazareth, he came and dwelt in Capernaum, which is upon the sea coast, in the borders of Zabulon and Nephthalim:
4:14 That it might be fulfilled which was spoken by Esaias the prophet, saying,
4:15 The land of Zabulon, and the land of Nephthalim, by the way of the sea, beyond Jordan, Galilee of the Gentiles;
4:16 The people which sat in darkness saw great light; and to them which sat in the region and shadow of death light is sprung up.
4:17 From that time Jesus began to preach, and to say, Repent: for the kingdom of heaven is at hand."
Thus, fifty year jubiles from this August 10, 1241 BC to the captivity September 7, 591 BC, 70 year captivity to August 521 BC, fifty year jubiles to September 9, 29 AD, or October 7, 29 AD.
Malachi 4:2 "But unto you that fear my name shall the Sun of righteousness arise with healing in his wings; and ye shall go forth, and grow up as calves of the stall."
1 John 2:8 "Again, a new commandment I write unto you, which thing is true in him and in you: because the darkness is past, and the true light now shineth."
Chinese emperor Wending reigned 15 years from 1251 BC or 1250 BC = the solar eclipse March 4, 1250 BC. Emperor Wending's 12th year was king Wan's first year, king Wan's dream, either February 5, 1239 BC or February 15, 1240 BC.
His 12th year 1239 BC, his 15th year would be 1235 BC. 1239 BC - 70 years = 1168 BC = the sun miracle in King Ching's first year = 1200 years to Jesus' sacrifice.
Te-sin's 22nd year must be 1207 BC = 1200 years to Jesus' birth.
There would be a lunar eclipse recorded in September 24, 1205 BC, in year 35 of king Wan. The sun would move from the first lunar zodiac in Virgo to the 14th lunar zodiac in Pisces. Thus, the Chinese would be encouraged to look for a beginning epoch.
Perhaps encouraged by these miracles in the 13th century BC, that nearly match this epoch, their search continued till 1280 AD when they concluded such a magical event never did occur.
Possibly the children of Israel would pass through the river Jordan on dry land Sunday, March 3, 1241 BC and keep the Passover Friday, March 9, 1241 BC. But most likely the crossing of the Jordan river was one month earlier.
Joshua's long day may have been almost the same date, the 21st day and Jesus' birth the 17th day of the seventh month - a difference of only four days.
Joshua's long day the 21st of the seventh month, and Jesus' birth the 17th of the seventh month.
King Wan's dream was on the sixth day of the first lunar month of spring. However, the sun was 180° away from the spring constellation of Pisces. So before the sun moved back the Chinese would need to keep track of the calendar because they would not be able to tell what season they were in by the position of the sun in the zodiac. If king Wan's dream was March 18, 1240 BC there must be an example of the Chinese beginning their year in March and not January/February.
Nevertheless king Wan's dream must be his first year, in the spring of 1239 BC = February 5, 1239 BC = the 35th year at the lunar eclipse day 13 of cycle 60, September 24, 1205 BC.
An example may be the sixth lunar month in China were in there was darkness in 591 BC September 7. September 1 began the sixth lunar month in China. The sixth day be September 7, 591 BC = the fifth lunar month in Israel = the total eclipse record of Halys in the same fifth month = was a sun miracle not an eclipse.
May 28 is not the fifth month from spring. Jerusalem fell on the fifth month, the eclipse was on the fifth month. The darkness at noon at Jerusalem = darkness at Halys Turkey at noon = the sun fell from the sky at noon.
The darkness and not an eclipse was on the seventh day of the sixth Chinese lunar month on day 40 of cycle 60 = the seventh day, and sabbath day, of the fifth Hebrew lunar month. Jesus speaking from Isaiah 61 in Luke 4 should be either September 9, 29 AD = day 11 of cycle 60. Or was October 7, 29 AD = this same day 40 of cycle 60 in China and exaclty three and a half years of Jesus' ministry to his crucifixion April 3, 33 AD.
There was 40 days from Jesus' birth: 8 days to his circumcision, 33 more days of purifying, till his parents presented him to the temple.
The solar eclipse of October 10, 592 BC was not visible from China and was day 8 of cycle 60, not day 40 of cycle 60. Also the year was 591 BC not 592 BC. Then, this record was not an eclipse.
Jeremiah 6:3 "The shepherds with their flocks shall come unto her; they shall pitch their tents against her round about; they shall feed every one in his place.
6:4 Prepare ye war against her; arise, and let us go up at noon. Woe unto us! for the day goeth away, for the shadows of the evening are stretched out.
6:5 Arise, and let us go by night, and let us destroy her palaces."
The shepherds with their flocks = the birth of Jesus, September 12, 7 BC, when the shepherds were watching the sheep during breeding season in Bethlehem.
The same date September 12, 6 BC was on the new moon. The same date September 12, 5 BC was just before the full moon and lunar eclipse and blood moon = sun miracle described by Josephus.
The "let us go by night" may equal one hour of darkness at noon = the darkness at noon when Jesus was on the cross.
Thus, the solar eclipse recorded at sunset in China = noon in israel, on day 40 of cycle 60, September 7, 591 BC. No day of 40 of cycle 60 matches any solar eclipse for many years before and after this 591 BC. This same darkness is described when Jesus was on the cross from the sixth hour of the day = noon.
Then April 7, 591 BC began the first month of Spring and the darkness at the fall of Jerusalem was in the sixth month in China, day 40 of cycle 60, September 7, 591 BC as the Chinese recorded the "eclipse". However, there is the possibililty the sun returned one year later Sunday, September 7, 590 BC after the fall of Jerusalem. September 7, 590 BC was the 17th day of the 7th Hebrew month = Jesus' birth on the 17th day of the 7th month September 12, 7 BC.
Nevertheless, September 7, 591 BC was the lunar day 7 = no solar eclipse, and the solar eclipse record on day 40 of cycle 60 in China.
The solar eclipse of Halys not May 28, 585 BC, but in the fifth month, the same fifth month, in Israel, the same seventh day of the month Jeruslem fell = the sun darkened at noon in Israel = darkened at sunset in China, September 7, 591 BC.
The sun was darkened at noon when Jesus was on the cross, Friday, April 3, 33 AD.
Jesus' birthday may have been Sunday, September 13, 7 BC the 17th day of the 7th Hebrew month. Exactly one week earlier, Sunday, September 6, 7 BC was Yom Kippur, the day of Atonement. There may have been a sun miracle half an orbit back from September 7, 591, being the new moon, March 7, 591 BC.
Nevertheless, the fall of Jerusalem on the seventh day of the fifth month as recorded in the Bible, day 40 of cycle 60 in China, should be September 7, 591 BC.
Ezekiel 32:1 "And it came to pass in the twelfth year, in the twelfth month, in the first day of the month, that the word of the LORD came unto me, saying,"
This first day of the 12th month may be the first day of the week, and allowing for the new moon not visible behind clouds till Sunday, March 2, 590 BC. Thus, this 12th year be the destruction of Jerusalem. The first month would begin on the new moon March 7, 591 BC. Then a sun miracle half an orbit later, the "eclipse" of September 7, 591 BC.
Ezekiel 32:17 "It came to pass also in the twelfth year, in the fifteenth day of the month, that the word of the LORD came unto me, saying,"
One year after September 7, 591 BC, is the 15th day of the month, September 7, 590 BC. The sun may have returned one year later, September 7, 590 BC. Thus, the fall of Jerusalem may have been about September 7, 590 BC, but probably was September 7, 591 BC = the solar eclipse day 40 of cycle 60 in China in the sixth month in 591 BC that cannot be a solar eclipse.
Ezekiel 30:20 "And it came to pass in the eleventh year, in the first month, in the seventh day of the month, that the word of the LORD came unto me, saying,"
The first month may be the civil calendar = September. Thus, the solar eclipse record, that was not an eclipse but a sun miracle = the sun was darkened, in China, September 7, 591 BC, may have occurred in this eleventh year. Then the destruction of Jerusalem follow September 7, 590 BC or more likely the destruction of Jerusalem at darkness at noon was September 7, 591 BC.
Or the first month of spring. March 6, 590 BC is the seventh day of the first month, counting from the Passover month in spring, half an orbit after the fall of Jerusalem, September 7, 591 BC.
The same lunar date the seventh day of the seventh month is also half an orbit later, the seventh day of the first month. 29.5 days a lunar month, X 6 = 178 days, 178 days after September 7, 591 BC is September 7, 590 BC.
From Fall to Spring are 178.64 days. From Spring to Fall are 186.6 days. 178.64 + 186.6 = 365.24.
Jeremiah 39:2 "And in the eleventh year of Zedekiah, in the fourth month, the ninth day of the month, the city was broken up."
You will read of many sun miracles here on the fourth month, the fourth month of summer.
Ezekiel 33:21 "And it came to pass in the twelfth year of our captivity, in the tenth month, in the fifth day of the month, that one that had escaped out of Jerusalem came unto me, saying, The city is smitten."
This eleventh year and twelfth year must be the same. A sun miracle, Sunday, August 11, 591 BC on the ninth of Tammuz, the fourth month, and a sun miracle 177 days later, half an orbit later on the 5th of the tenth month, Sunday, February 2, 590 BC and the sun may return and earth flow out of the reverse orbit. Then the sun miracle of darkness September 7, 591 BC may be the sun revolving around earth at or very near the speed of light for one hour at noon Israel time and at sunset China day 40 of cycle and the seventh day of the fifth month in Israel the same day.
Gravity travels at the speed of light, as does light. Thus, if God moved the sun around the earth, not only would the sun be dark for about one hour, but the gravity pull on tides would not be felt as well. No light no gravity pull either. Solar tides are 40% of lunar tides.
There are two tides about 12 hours apart every day. The tide closest to the moon and the tide furthest from the moon.
The gravity pull from the sun and moon would equal day and night exactly. The sun moving west to east may leave an unusual tide, but still that tide would be tied to the sun. The sun revolving around the earth at or very near the speed of light for one hour would leave no solar tide at all. Nevertheless, an equal gravity pull may be created. Just look at dark matter and dark energy. They are called dark because we do not know what they are. Dark energy repels matter, dark matter acts with gravity.
God having gone to these great lengths to hide his power would go even further to hide his power, to produce the same tides as normal to leave the same tide sediment as normal.
No light from the sun and the moon would be dark. Even almost the second light from the sun in the eight minutes it travelled from the sun, stopped on the earth, in two seconds light from the moon would stop as well. If the sun was moved 360° the moon may be moved 360° as well. But probably the moon remained leaving the same tidal bulge. Nevertheless, for the full moon to even appear at noon would mean the moon was moved also. Thus, sometimes the sun goes around the moon. Thus, a very darkened moon may appear at noon when Jesus was on the cross.
Nevertheless, the moon must have been left alone = the same lunar tide as normal. No gravity from the sun means a gravity pull where the sun was must be made to leave the same solar tide that day.
No light from the sun and the two innermost planets, Mercury, Venus, would stop reflecting light from the sun in minutes, Mars in 16 minutes and 16 more minutes till light from Mars stopped reaching earth. If Earth is on the other side of Mars from the sun, light from Mars will take another 32 minutes, thus 40 minutes after light stopped coming from the sun. Light from the sun takes 46 minutes to reach Jupiter and another 46 minutes till the light from Jupiter stopped. Likewise 80 minutes to Saturn and 80 minutes back to earth.
If the sun disappeared it would take 8 minutes = the time for light or gravity to reach the earth, for earth to not feel the gravity pull of the sun and continue in a straight line not an orbit. If the sun was moved around the earth, the gravity pull would still be there, earth would continue forward. However, this forward momentum would have to be carefully controlled so as to not draw closer to the sun. After the sun had moved 180° earth would flow into a reverse orbit of the sun. In this reverse orbit earth must be carefully controlled to keep the same orbit as it normally would have for the duration of the one or more years of reverse orbit.
It would be about half an hour for Mars to appear dark because it would take 16 minutes for light to get to Mars from the sun and 8 minutes to 32 minutes for light to get to earth from Mars. It would take more than an hour for light to stop coming from Jupiter and almost three hours for light to stop coming from Saturn. 80 minutes for light from the sun to reach Saturn, and about the same 80 minutes for light from Saturn to reach earth = 3 hours. Thus, these two outermost planets could still be visible on earth within the one hour 360° circuit of the sun. Although Jupiter and Saturn would have a delayed one hour of darkness.
Then for the five planets to appear in Fang/Scorpius in king Wan's dream, the time delay for light from Saturn to earth would mean Saturn appear in Scorpius for an hour and a half before light from Saturn came to earth to show Saturn had moved.
Studies of ancient lunar and solar tides are only now being researched in depth. Eventually, the truth will be known God moved the sun. But the results will not be what man wants. God has left no evidence so we need faith.
Psalm 53:1 "The fool hath said in his heart, There is no God."
If God moved the sun at or very near the speed of light and moved with the sun, time would stop on the sun while continuing on earth. On other times the half hour of left over time of an half reverse orbit may be countered by the sun moving 180°. Thus, the sun could appear dark in Israel while the sun revolved 180° around the earth from horizon to horizon. Because time would stop on the sun, the sun would appear dark. Rather then the almost one hour to complete 360° to counter two sped up half reverse orbits.
From September to March is the sped up orbit as earth's closest approach to the sun about January 3. 179 days and 186.5 days from equinox to equinox = 365.24 days. This sped up half orbit is a sped up 24:30 hours that equals 360° in 24 hours, leaving sped up time of 30 minutes. Two winter half orbits in reverse leave 30 + 30 = 60 minutes. For time to match, the sun moved around the earth so fast that time stops on the sun for almost one hour = this also sped up two half earth orbits for also a total of one hour left over.
Thus, a clock on the earth before and after would tell the same exact time, matching the day and the hour and the minute and the second of the day.
Two reverse orbits to Jesus' sacrifice gives 84 hours longer day/night April 3, 33 AD from April 3, 31 AD to April 3, 33 AD. Two sped up winter half orbits before this, October 7, 29 AD to April 3, 30 AD and October 3, 30 AD to April 3, 31 AD.
Matthew 27:45 "Now from the sixth hour there was darkness over all the land unto the ninth hour.
27:46 And about the ninth hour Jesus cried with a loud voice, saying, Eli, Eli, lama sabachthani? that is to say, My God, my God, why hast thou forsaken me?"
Mark 15:33 "And when the sixth hour was come, there was darkness over the whole land until the ninth hour.
15:34 And at the ninth hour Jesus cried with a loud voice, saying, Eloi, Eloi, lama sabachthani? which is, being interpreted, My God, my God, why hast thou forsaken me?"
Luke 23:44 "Now it was already about the sixth hour, and darkness fell upon the whole earth and lasted until the ninth hour.
23:45 And the sun was obscured, and the veil of the temple was rent in the midst."
"already" may refer to it being already dark at the sixth hour = noon, and may refer to the sun moved west from the third hour = 9 AM presently to the sixth hour 12 PM, and then the sun accelerated to the speed of light and sudden darkness at noon for one or three hours.
The sun may have been darkened for three hours. Just the model of moving the sun around the earth in under one hour at or very near the speed of light.
The only clock was a sundial. Darkness at 12 PM on the sundial to the 3 PM shadow when the sun appears again. However, The sun's shadow at the 3 PM position may have been produced by the sun travelling at or very near the speed of light which should take 55 minutes. Two sped up half reverse orbits should have 30 minutes of sped up orbit. Thus, the winter sped up half orbit of 24:30 hours = 30 minutes extra.
The sun standing still for a total of 24 hours = 2 X 12 hours; perhaps the sun standing still in the sky while moving 180° to the other side of earth in 12 hours to the other side of earth and earth flowing into a reverse orbit of the sun. Then half an orbit later the sun standing still for 12 hours and moving 180° back and earth flowing out of the reverse orbit = 24 hours of long day that counter 24 hours of earth's sped up orbit, leaves 30 minutes of sped up time left over.
A sped up winter half orbit of 24:30 hours after the sun moves back; 12 hours to begin the reverse orbit and 12 hours to end the reverse orbit = 2 X 180° is 2 X 12 hours = 24 hours, with 30 minutes left over.
Then 30 minutes X 2 half reverse orbits = 60 minutes extra sped up time on earth. Making the sun move around the earth at or very near the speed of light matches the one hour of sped up time on earth leaving no missing minutes on the clock. The sun may have been darkened for 60 minutes. The sun travelling at or very near the speed of light around the earth completing 360° in 55 minutes and traveling an extra 5 minutes west to 60 minutes, of darkness, is 5 more minutes; 60 minutes in one hour means 5 minutes equals 1/12 X 24 hours = two hours.
Then there be one hour of darkness then the sun's shadow would appear two hours further west + the one hour passing = the sun's shadow appear again at the 9th hour = 3 PM.
Mark 15:44 "And Pilate marvelled if he were already dead: and calling unto him the centurion, he asked him whether he had been any while dead."
From the third hour to sunset on the 12th hour to be on the cross would be a very long time.
Acts 2:19 "And I will shew wonders in heaven above, and signs in the earth beneath; blood, and fire, and vapour of smoke:
2:20 The sun shall be turned into darkness, and the moon into blood, before that great and notable day of the Lord come:"
The darkness at noon when Jesus was on the cross was 50 days previous at April 3, 33 AD, and Pentecost, Sunday, May 24, 33 AD.
"wonders in heaven" or Omens, Portents, sun miracles.
Joel 2:1 "Blow ye the trumpet in Zion, and sound an alarm in my holy mountain: let all the inhabitants of the land tremble: for the day of the LORD cometh, for it is nigh at hand;
2:2 A day of darknessH2822 and of gloominessH653, a day of clouds and of thick darkness, as the morning spread upon the mountains: a great people and a strong; there hath not been ever the like, neither shall be any more after it, even to the years of many generations."
H2822 חֹשֶׁךְ chôshek kho-shek' From H2821; the dark; hence (literally) darkness; figuratively misery, destruction, death, ignorance, sorrow, wickedness: - dark (-ness), night, obscurity. Total KJV occurrences: 79

Joel 2:10 "The earth shall quake before them; the heavens shall tremble: the sun and the moon shall be dark, and the stars shall withdraw their shining:"
The full moon to be dark must count from sunset when the moon rise in the east = Friday night, April 3, 33 AD when Jesus was taken down from the cross by Joseph of Arimathaea.
Joel 2:10 "The earthH776 shall quakeH7264 beforeH6440 them; the heavensH8064 shall tremble:H7493 the sunH8121 and the moonH3394 shall be dark,H6937 and the starsH3556 shall withdrawH622 their shining:H5051"
Joel 2:10 in the Aleppo Codex, the last two lines and the next line below:
Here you see the same verses in the Interlinear Bible with Strongs numbers.
H6937 קָדַר qâdar kaw-dar' A primitive root; to be ashy, that is, dark colored; by implication to mourn (in sackcloth or sordid garments): - be black (-ish), be (make) dark (-en), X heavily, (cause to) mourn. Total KJV occurrences: 17
Here you see the word for Heavens is like the root word for sun, shem, in plural. The word for dark is similar to the words used for dark in Zechariah 14:6 beginning with the letter Qof. The day was neither dark nor light.
Gideon attacked at the beginning of the middle watch and fought a battle at night. Perhaps Gideon had twilight in which to fight the battle. The earth quake because of the gravity pull of the sun being moved around the earth. The heavens shake may be a shower of meteorites as earth flowed into a reverse orbit of the sun.
H7264 רָגַז râgaz raw-gaz' A primitive root; to quiver (with any violent emotion, especially anger or fear): - be afraid, stand in awe, disquiet, fall out, fret, move, provoke, quake, rage, shake, tremble, trouble, be wroth. Total KJV occurrences: 41
H7493 רָעַשׁ râ‛ash raw-ash A primitive root; to undulate (as the earth, the sky, etc.; also a field of grain), particularly through fear; specifically to spring (as a locust): - make afraid, (re-) move, quake, (make to) shake, (make to) tremble. Total KJV occurrences: 30
Moving the sun around the earth and there should be earthquakes; the planets must move also; there should be streaks of meteor showers as asteroids move into earth's path of orbit; stars from the other half of the sky should appear. Meteor showers appear mostly after midnight to 6 AM. In a reverse orbit meteor showers instead would appear mostly from sunset to midnight. Also, the swirl of asteroids that normally travel with earth's orbit would instead hit the earth head on = brighter meteor showers.
Joel 2:31 "The sun shall be turned into darkness, and the moon into blood, before the great and the terrible day of the LORD come"

The jubile April 3, 33 AD was just 50 days before Pentecost. The many sun miracles on jubiles from Adam and the Armenian Sothis calendar. 5368 BC = 50 year cycles to April 3, 33 AD, 5358 BC = 49 year cycles to April 3, 33 AD, 4672 BC Adam 700th year from 5368 BC = both 49 year cycles to April 3, 33 and 50 year cycles to September 9, 29 AD, or October 7, 29 AD.
2369 BC = both 49 year and 50 year cycles to April 3 33 AD, 2222 BC = 49 year cycles to April 3, 33 AD and 50 year cycles to September 9, 29 AD, 1045 BC = 49 year cycles to April 3, 33 AD, 458 BC = 49 year cycles to April 3, 33 AD; all in 50 year jubiles to the beginning of Jesus' ministry September 9, 29 AD or October 7, 29 AD, and 49 year and 50 year jubiles to Jesus' sacrifice April 3, 33 AD.
From the birth of Adam in 4668 BC; 4700 years to Jesus' sacrifice, are 2300 years to this 2368 BC; 2400 years to Jesus' sacrifice April 3, 33 AD.
The sun was darkened when Jesus was on the cross = this jubile = Jesus' coming again.
There was no record of this darkness outside of the Bible. Then, the sun may have risen in the west and set in the east that Sabbath Jesus was in the grave, and there be no record of that either. Even that Sabbath there may have been a long night/day to equal the three days, 3 X 24 hours, Jesus was in the grave.
Isaiah 16:3 "Take counsel, execute judgment; make thy shadow as the night in the midst of the noonday; hide the outcasts; bewray not him that wandereth."
Amos 8:1 "Thus hath the Lord GOD shewed unto me: and behold a basket of summer fruit."
Amos 8:8 "Shall not the land tremble for this, and every one mourn that dwelleth therein? and it shall rise up wholly as a flood; and it shall be cast out and drowned, as by the flood of Egypt.
8:9 And it shall come to pass in that day, saith the Lord GOD, that I will cause the sun to go down at noon, and I will darken the earth in the clear day:"
Isaiah 13:10b "the sun shall be darkened in his going forth,"
That is, God may have moved the sun at or very near the speed of light = time would stop on the sun and the sun would be completely black. Likewise, Amos - for the sun to go down at noon should also mean God moved the sun at or very near the speed of light.
"If the sun is suddenly swept away, the disturbance in the local spacetime geometry travels for eight minutes (at the speed of light) until it reaches earth, and we feel the change. And in the meanwhile a disturbance in the electromagnetic field travels for the same eight minutes until it reaches the earth, and we see the sun has disappeared. The second effect is 'carried' by the electromagnetic field, the first is 'carried' by spacetime."
Quantum SPACE, by Jim Baggott, p.210
2 Kings 15:13 "Shallum the son of Jabesh began to reign in the nine and thirtieth year of Uzziah king of Judah; and he reigned a full month in Samaria."
From Uzziah in 802 BC to his 39th year = 763 BC:
Here you can see the solar eclipse of 763 BC was not total in Israel, but was total in Nineveh, the epicenter, for five minutes.
This 763 BC solar eclipse is the only match for this period.
"This year corresponds approximately to 763 BC. The month Siwan, the third month of the year, was equivelant to May/June. References to the charts of Oppolzer (1887) shows that between 777 and 745 BC only two eclipses could have been large in Assyria: BC 765 February 10 and 763 June 15..the record gives no information regarding magnitude."
Historical Eclipses and Earth's Rotation, by F Richard Stephenson. p.127.
With the approximation of the date, there is the possibility of this solar eclipse record being rather of a sun miracle as in Amos 8:9.
The summer fruit in Amos 8:1 may refer to the sun darkened in its going forth in this month Siwan, the third month from the Passover.
"the land tremble" may refer to the affect of moving the sun around the earth.
Amos 1:1 "The words of Amos, who was among the herdmen of Tekoa, which he saw concerning Israel in the days of Uzziah king of Judah, and in the days of Jeroboam the son of Joash king of Israel, two years before the earthquake."
There is a suggested date of 759 BC for this great earthquake. So, although there was a solar eclipse about this time in Nineveh for June 15, 763 BC and most likely this solar eclipse is meant, the reading of Amos 8:9 is the sun "was darkened in its going forth" going forth at or very near the speed of light. Also the character for eclipse describes a crescent that could describe the sun being moved near the speed of light - a thin red vertical line.
Matthew 24:29 "Immediately after the tribulation of those days shall the sun be darkened, and the moon shall not give her light, and the stars shall fall from heaven, and the powers of the heavens shall be shaken:
24:30 And then shall appear the sign of the Son of man in heaven: and then shall all the tribes of the earth mourn, and they shall see the Son of man coming in the clouds of heaven with power and great glory.
24:31 And he shall send his angels with a great sound of a trumpet, and they shall gather together his elect from the four winds, from one end of heaven to the other."
No light from the sun and no light reflected by the moon. The red line of the sun in dilation at the speed of light, may make the moon a faint blood red colour.
"In his first year which was sin-wei (8th of cycle = B.C. 769) the king removed the capitol to the east, to the city of Loh."
The Chinese Classics, p.158
China removed kings often when there was an omen of a sun miracle. Then, the possibility of a sun miracle and earthquake in 769 BC instead of the estimated geological date of 759 BC. 769 BC is 800 years to Jesus' sacrifice April 3, 33 AD.
"In (Emperor Fah - his first year not 1595 BC but 1715 BC) his seventh year (1708 BC = 1700 years to Jesus' birth), he died. Mount T'ae shook."
The Chinese Classics, p.124
From 1595 BC plus 120 years further back = the missing 2 X 60 year cycles between 1107 BC and 987 BC.
There is a 120 year gap, either between the death of emperor Ch'aou in 1087 BC and the first year of emperor Muh in 965 BC (or 961 BC) or from the death of emperor K'ang in 1107 BC to Ch'aou in 987 BC = the 19 years of Ch'aou to Muh in 967 BC.
That is, "Muh reigned 59 years", to 906 BC, must be from 965 BC, not from 951 BC.
Also, there is a 60 year gap about this same 1708 BC (like 1107 BC = X07 BC) some time after emperor Yu in 2169 BC (2200 years to Jesus' sacrifice).
2 X 60 year cycles, less seven years is 1708 BC = 1700 years to Jesus' birth in 7 BC. Or 60 more years back = 1768 BC = 1800 years to Jesus' sacrifice April 3, 33 AD.
There was an earthquake in Sparta dated to 463 BC, about the time Esther delivered the Jews = the 13th day of the 12th month - perhaps the 13th day was Friday, January 27, 464 BC and they rested on Adar 14 on the Saturday the Sabbath day = the time Lu Yang recorded the sun rose in the west and passed through three solar mansions on the 11th Chinese month, the fourth year of King Ching-Ting, from spring in February in 467 BC = 464 BC, - counting from Spring in March = the spring equinox March 23, 464 BC and the first lunar month of spring from March 10, 464 BC.
Then Purim of Esther is this Adar 13 in the 11th month is Friday January 27, 464 BC, or the next year in 463 BC = Adar 13 is Tuesday January 16, 463 BC.
Or Adar 13 on Saturday/Sunday February 25, 464 BC.
You will see a variety of dates for this Purim in Esther.
The end of the fourth year from 467 BC = January 463 BC. The 12th year of Xerxes from 477 BC is 465 BC or February 26, 464 BC / January 27, 464 BC = the same 12th year from 477 BC continuing into the new year, the 12th month of Adar = an added second month of Adar in the 12th year of Xerxes.
There was an added second month of Adar in Xerxes' 12th year = Purim of Esther.
God may have moved the sun in the 12th year of Xerxes, from 477 BC = 466 BC, on the first day of Nissan, March 7, 466 BC.
Then one year later equal the 13th day of the 12th month = Purim, March 7, 465 BC:
The sun must return one year later on the same date.
The 12th month may be in January / February. Thus sun miracles on the same date one year later: January 27, 464 BC to January 27, 463 BC.
The most likely date would be Sunday, February 26, 464 BC = 12 years from Xerxes becoming King in about October 478 BC / 477 BC, 477 BC - 12 years = in October 465 BC = the 12th month of Adar the same 12th year = February 26, 464 BC = the 13th day of Adar = the fourth year (467 BC - 3 years = 464 BC) of King Ching-Ting from 467 BC:
Perhaps God move the sun back on Adar 13, Purim, the 13th day of the 12th month, one year after Nissan one, one year to the exact date and earth flowed out of a reverse orbit of the sun.
Perhaps God moved the sun to the other side of earth on the first day of the first month, Nissan one, and earth flowed into a reverse orbit of the sun:
This is a pattern of Jesus going to the cross on Friday and rising from the dead on Sunday.
Artaxerxes I reigned from 458 BC when his father Xerxes died. Thus, Artaxerxes I's fourth year from 458 BC would be this solar eclipse in 455 BC instead of his fourth year from 466 BC, 463 BC; be Artaxerxes fourth year from 458 BC = 454 BBC.
You can see the solar eclipse for April 30, 463 BC - that was mistaken:
You can see the actual solar eclipse record, and the earthquake, that day, for May 31, 455 BC = 8 years more recent than 463 BC when the date, both lunar and the Egyptian 30 day month, match. You can see the partial solar eclipse was visible from Sparta. Ancient people noticed even the smallest edge of the moon grazing the sun.
May 31, 455 BC is the same day of the 30 day month as April 30, 463 BC, only one month more recent = the same day in the Egyptian calendar.
Neverrtheless, the eclipse the Spartans took as an omen to let Xerxes go at the battle of Salamis, September 26, 472 BC, must have been God suddenly moving the sun = the sun removed and sudden darkness.
This earthquake in Sparta would be 8 years more recent on May 31, 455 BC. April 30 and May 30, about the same month of the year. Thus, May 31, 455 BC be the correct date.
This April solar eclipse may be a sun miracle at noon at the Passover, like the darkness when Jesus was on the cross.
The full moon Sunday, March 30, 456 BC and Thursday, March 19, 455 BC, Wednesday, April 7, 454 BC, may have been the Passover. 454 BC / 128 = 4 days. Thus April 7, 454 BC = April 3, 33 AD.
"In (King Yew) his 2d year,(779 BC) sin-yew 58 of cycle 60, the 1st year of prince Wan of Tsin, - the King, Wei, and Loh, all became dry. A part of mount K'e fell down.."
The Chinese Classics, p.157
This 779 BC record may be an earthquake. Note that mount K'e is referred to. King Wan also mentioned mount K'e the night at sunset in China = noon Israel, when the sun stood still at the western horizon for 12 hours. "a phoenix duck sang on mount K'e"
From the Dead Sea: "Using carbon-14 dating of organic matter in the deformed layers, Kagan dated one quake to 861-705 B.C.E. and the second to 824-667 B.C.E."
Azariah and Uzziah are two different kings. Thus, this reference to the earthquake in Amos may refer to the one before 800 BC, as well as one after 800 BC. Azariah reigned 38 years from 840 BC to 802 BC = the 38 years of Jesus' perfect life. Uzziah reigned 52 years from 802 BC to 750 BC. Josephus wrote the earthquake was a result of King Uzziah offering incense in the temple that only the priests were allowed to offer.
2 Kings 15:13 "Shallum the son of Jabesh began to reign in the nine and thirtieth year of Uzziah king of Judah; and he reigned a full month in Samaria."
Again, in the 39th year, of Uzziah = the 38.5 years of Jesus' perfect life. From 802 BC - 39 years = 763 BC = the solar eclipse in Nineveh, June 15, 763 BC.
Isaiah 24:23 "Then the moon shall be confounded, and the sun ashamed, when the LORD of hosts shall reign in mount Zion, and in Jerusalem, and before his ancients gloriously."
Zephaniah 1:15 "That day is a day of wrath, a day of trouble and distress, a day of wasteness and desolation, a day of darkness and gloominess, a day of clouds and thick darkness,"
Jeremiah 4:28 "For this shall the earth mourn, and the heavens above be black: because I have spoken it, I have purposed it, and will not repent, neither will I turn back from it."
Jeremiah 15:8 "Their widows are increased to me above the sand of the seas: I have brought upon them against the mother of the young men a spoiler at noonday: I have caused him to fall upon it suddenly, and terrors upon the city.
15:9 She that hath borne seven languisheth: she hath given up the ghost; her sun is gone down while it was yet day: she hath been ashamed and confounded: and the residue of them will I deliver to the sword before their enemies, saith the LORD."
Jeremiah 13:15 "Hear ye, and give ear; be not proud: for the LORD hath spoken.
13:16 Give glory to the LORD your God, before he cause darkness, and before your feet stumble upon the dark mountains, and, while ye look for light, he turn it into the shadow of death, and make it gross darkness."
Jeremiah 31:35 "Thus saith the LORD, which giveth the sun for a light by day, and the ordinances of the moon and of the stars for a light by night, which divideth the sea when the waves thereof roar; The LORD of hosts is his name:"
Micah 3:6 "Therefore night shall be unto you, that ye shall not have a vision; and it shall be dark unto you, that ye shall not divine; and the sun shall go down over the prophets, and the day shall be dark over them."
Micah 7:8 "Rejoice not against me, O mine enemy: when I fall, I shall arise; when I sit in darkness, the LORD shall be a light unto me."
The shadow of death may be the sabbath Jesus was in the tomb before his resurrection.
In both Amos and Isaiah the sun is darkened in his going forth. Then God must have moved the sun around the earth at or very near the speed of light. Time would stop on the sun, thus there would be no light for almost one hour.
Then the sun would reappear in the 3 PM position at 1 PM, the 3 PM shadow on the sundial.
The only clock at that time was the sundial.
The sun arriving at the 3 PM position because the sun has completed 360° in less than one hour at the speed of light.
The sun must move 360° in 53 minutes at least = leaving one minute to accelerate from inertia to the speed of light and one minute to deaccelerate to inertia, to travel at the speed of light and be completely dark = 55 minutes. Or simply the sun was moved to the speed of light in seconds, and the sun travelled very near the speed of light so only a few seconds passed in that one hour travelling 360° around the earth.
The sun must be moved immediately, in a few seconds, from inertia to the speed of light.
Theoretically the sun may have been accelerated slowly taking many hours to get up to speed to appear to stand still in the sky. This would not work because earth would have rotated the sun out of view before standing still in the sky. And also, that theoretically would also mean the sun must decelerate over many hours also into the next day.
Simply moving the sun immediately to 20 million miles per hour to stand still in the sky for Joshua.
Or the sun may have been moved at 40 million miles per hour to rise in the west, pause at 20 million miles per hour to stand still at noon for Joshua, and proceed to set in the east.
For Hezekiah the sun must pass west to east in 12 hours.
Or for Hezekiah the sun pass from sunset in the west presently at about about 90% the speed of light = 600 million miles per hour to retreat from the west to set in the east presently = in about 40 minutes for Hezekiah.
The sun darkened at noon at the fall of Jerusalem and at noon when Jesus was on the cross means the sun must move almost the speed of light to appear almost completely dark.
The speed of light is 670,616,629 miles per hour. So 10% of the speed of light is 67 million miles per hour and 90% is 600 million miles per hour.
God created the universe, this is exactly God's power.
Even more specifically, the angels of God, the phoenix, flew to the sun and moved the sun. In some depictions, both Chinese and Native American, the phoenix carried the sun in its beak = The emperor was given a jade bird holding a red pearl in its beak = Hanukkah December 12, 164 BC = the sun rising in the west and passing the meridian - the noon position in China.
There must be two fall/winter half orbits leaving 30 minutes each in missing time = 60 minutes. From the fall equinox to the spring equinox are 179 days. 179/365.2 X 48 hours = 23 hours and 30 minutes. Conversely the sped up half orbit has 24 hours and 30 minutes sped up half reverse orbit, both totaling 48 hours.
This half orbit should have 30 minutes of more sped up time than 24 hours = 24:30 hours, because the sped up half of fall/winter should have the 30 more minutes of sped up earth = 24 hours and 30 minutes of sped up earth. The exact half orbit must have exactly 30 minutes more than 24 hours of sped up earth. To equal the one hour of the sun moving at or very near the speed of light, two left over minutes of the 24 hours must equal 2 X 30 minutes.
Thus, there would be no net missing time on earth. A clock on earth would not show an hour of elapsed time. A watch from any time before two years before, two years later after the sun returned, would show the exact time of day that would normally be on earth.
Thus, the total of the two fall/winter half reverse orbits must equal 60 minutes, leaving 5 minutes more than the 55 minutes of sun travel at the speed of light after the 360° = a 3 PM sun dial position one hour after the 12 PM darkness start time.
Thus, this five more minutes of 60 minutes = 5/60 X 24 hours = two hours. Then, earth would rotate one hour west over the hour the sun was moved around the earth. And the sun would move a further two more hours west = three hours in total. Thus, a sun dial before would tell the time of noon, 12 PM, and the sun dial after would tell for 3 PM = the ninth hour.
Then there would also be the three more hours on the sun dial before sunset, three hours from the 9th hour at 3 PM to sunset at the 12th hour 6 PM. The sun may move west to east after sunset, rising in the west the following Saturday, Sabbath day, and setting in the east, and it become dark, before suddenly and brilliantly rising in the east. The total net movements would leave no net missing time on earth.
Then Orion that would normally start to appear at 7 PM, after sunset at 6 PM, when Orion would be setting, would instead appear with the stars at 5 PM above. Orion would still set by 8 PM. Earth's rotation has not changed. But the sun would be two hours to the west. Thus, that night when Orion would hardly appear before setting, Orion would be bright in the night sky above when it got dark after sunset, April 3, 33 AD.
Moreover, when the sun was darkened at noon when Jesus was on the cross, very likely Orion appeared above when the stars came out. Orion could be a type of Christ.
Orion should appear just to the east of the sun, when the sun was darkened. The stars may not have appeared. But the sun would be darkened so much that the stars, Orion, should appear overhead.
The sun revolving 360° around the earth at noon in a straight line would appear to move up 23° then down 23°. In Hawaii in May my shadow was almost non existent. Thus, this verse of the noon day shadow may describe the movement of the shadow at noon while the sun in its revolution around the earth appears to move up and down.
Likewise for Yao's long day of nine days in 2315 BC or 2325 BC, and emperor Kin's long day of ten days in 1732 BC, the sun may move up and down nine or ten times staying in the same position of the sky for nine or ten days.
This may have been in Azariah's 38th year of his life, in the 18th year of his reign, in 830 BC. Thus, Azariah being 38, the same age as Jesus when he was crucified, the darkness being a type of Christ.
Likewise, Azariah reigned 38 years from 840 BC to 802 BC. From Joshua's long day in 1241 BC to Azariah in 840 BC are 400 years.
Most likely the battle of Merom was February 4, 1240 BC and king Wans' dream one year later, February 5, 1239 BC.
Also, the lunar days are counted from Virgo day one of the 28 lunar signs. Then, the sun in Virgo in February 5, 1239 BC, and the moon in the sixth lunar mansion, Scorpius. Thus, the six day moon in the first month of spring after sunset. Then, the sun stand still at the sunset position for 12 hours while earth rotates, and now on the other side of earth, earth would flow back into the regular direction of orbit.
King Wan's dream probably was February 5, 1239 BC.
The first lunar day of 28 is Jue in Virgo, Kang in Virgo, Di in Libra, Fang in Scorpius, Xin in Scorpius, and day 6 Wei in Scorpius.
The sixth lunar day is when the moon is above at sunset. If the six day moon is in Scorpius the setting sun is in Virgo. The sun can only be in Virgo in the fall. This was the first month of spring! 180° away.
The best way is to square PI. The area of a quadrant is A X B X PI / 4. For earth's current elliptical orbit: So the shortest distance to the sun is 147,000,000 Kilometers. The longest distance is 153,000,000 K. The distance at the equinox is 149,000,000 K. So 147 X 149 X 3.14159265 / 2 = 34405.151. 153 X 149 X 3.14159265 / 2 = 35809.443. 34405.151 + 35809.443 = 70214.594. 70214.594 / 34405.151 = 2.04081. 2.04081 X 48 / 2 = 24.50 hours = 24:30 hours. The same missing 30 minutes. 48 hours over 365.24 days = 7.9 minutes a day. Then add a day and a half to get to Joshua's Long Day = 1.5 X 8 minutes and we have the missing 40 minutes. 30 + 10 = 40.
The nearest, furthest and half orbit point are not quite the solstices and equinoxes. Thus, the distances above match the dates February 4, 1241 BC, August 10, 1241 BC and February 4, 1240 BC and August 10, 1240 BC and February 5, 1239 BC.
Even so, today the equinoxes match these dates in distances from the sun to what they were on these dates of sun miracles in 1240 BC.
The nearness of the sun is not related to the equinoxes. But the half orbit counts from the equinoxes. Thus, the sun nearest earth on January 3, 2023 = the fall/winter half orbit is the sped up half orbit. Then, the half orbit date from near January 3 or in November / December in 1241 BC are both 182.6 days and are 24 hours and 24 hours both of sped up reverse orbit.
Thus, Joshua's long day August 10, 1241 BC half orbit starts February 4, 1241 BC = 90 days after the Perihelion of the sun = the nearest of the sun = the sped up 23:30 hours and 24:30 hours = 186.6 days and 178.6 days; if the half orbit is 1.5 days shorter and Joshua's long day August 8, 1241 BC. For Joshua's long day to be on Saturday - 1.5 more days = 188 days from Sunday, February 4, 1241 BC to Saturday = Sunday to Saturday are 188 days, August 10, 1241 BC = 23:20 hours and 24:40 hours of sped up orbit = 48 hours total sped up reverse orbit.
Thus, the summer half orbit of 186.5 days today match this first half orbit from the fall of Jericho. Then to add a day and a half give 188 days. "The elapsed time that was missing back in Joshua's day was 23 hours and 20 minutes". The long day was 23:20 hours in elapsed time matching the missing time in that half orbit. The long days must add up to 48 hours in both half orbits. Thus, the second half orbit must have 24:40 hours in missing time to add up to 48 hours.
Thus, the 10 degrees added up to 40 minutes and king Wan would see the sunset. the sun stay at sunset and first quarter moon directly overhead, and 12 hours later the sun rise 10 degrees above the western horizon. Thus, king Wan dreamt he was clothed in the sun and the moon.
Possibly these dates may be put forward one month; the fall of Jericho, Saturday, March 16, 1241 BC, Joshua's long day, Friday, September 20, 1241 BC and king Wan's dream on the Chinese six day moon, Tuesday, March 18, 1240 BC.
Then this picture taken noon September 16, 2010 would show the noon day light at the same time of year as at Jesus' birth, about Saturday, September 12, 7 BC. Joshua's long day Saturday, August 10, 1241 BC would be our July 31 or August 1.
Nevertheless, Jesus' birth on the 17th day of the 7th month, September 12, 7 BC was the same seventh month as Joshua's long day, August 10, 1241 BC, the 21st day of the 7th month, only more than one month later in September.
The six day moon in king Wan's dream could not occur on Saturday March 15 the second day moon unless this was counted from the sixth lunar mansion Scorpius, but lunar day four. Thus, king Wan's dream may be the battle of Merom. But most likely king Wan's dream was one year later, February 5, 1239 BC. The battle of Merom may have been February 4, 1240 BC, and king Wan's dream one year later, on lunar day six, and day six of the seven day week, Friday, February 5, 1239 BC. The day was counted at night fall both in Israel and in China. Thus king Wan's dream, lunar day six, was more likely also week day six, the day in China beginning after dark = Friday, February 5, 1239 BC.
The battle of Merom may have been February 5, 1240 BC and king Wan's dream February 5, 1239 BC.
Thus, this picture of Gibeon at noon September 16, 2010 AD would equal the sun at noon, September 26, 1241 BC = 47 days earlier = August 1, 2021 AD, near the middle of summer.
Joshua's long day, August 10, 1241 BC, day 19 of cycle 60 in China. Normally, the Big Dipper points to Arcturus at 12 PM overhead in August/September.
Nevertheless, Joshua's long day August 10, 1241 BC and king Wan's dream February 5, 1239 BC work best.
"Divined on day [18]: (Charge:) the Sun will have a blemish. (Verification:) Indeed there was a blemish. [Heji, 33700]
"Divined on day [18]: (Charge:) the Sun will have a blemish on the west. This is a calamity. (Verification:) Indeed there was a blemish. [Heji, 33704]
East Asian Archaeoastronomy, p.20.
Joshua's long day on 19 of cycle or 18 of cycle, August 10, 1241 BC = the sun standing still at noon on Israel = on the western horizon on China. Thus, the western sun in China and a calamity of a long sunset of 24 hours.
Also, the sun should return February 4, 1240 BC that is day 18 of cycle 60. The battle of Merom in Joshua 11 and Judges 4, 5, may have been on this date. Perhaps the sun stood still at noon for Joshua and Israel to conquer Jabin and Sisera = the sun standing still at sunset on China for 12 or 24 hours.
Arcturus is bright because it is large and is only 37 light years away. That is, the star burns less brightly than the sun, but because the surface area of Arcturus is so large, the star emits much more light. Arcturus is 115 times larger than the sun, 25 times wider than the sun, and thus would appear brighter than the sun even though the surface of Arcturus is dimmer than the surface of the sun. Arcturus is only 1.5 times the mass of the sun.
Arcturus is the third brightest star seen from earth. Sirius is the brightest star and marked the beginning of the sothis calendar on July 16 for many thousands of years. The new years is on July 16 = 360 days leaving 5 days the dog days of summer from July 16 to July 20. There is no February 29 every four years. The new years the sothis calendar backs up one day every four years.
The Exodus out of Egypt was on the selfsame day as the Sojourn into Egypt. The sojourn in year 430 from 2737 BC, was 430/4 = 107 days back from July 16, on Friday, April 1, 2307 BC, April 3 was the full moon. The sothis calendar backs up one day every four years. 365 days - 1460 years. One day shorter July 17 - 1456 years. Back 107 days from July 17 = March 30. The Exodus was at the end of of 1456 years from 2737 BC on the full moon, Friday, March 30, 1281 BC = the selfsame day: Friday - April 1 and Friday - March 30.
Joseph became governor over Egypt at the beginning of the seven years of plenty, 8 years previous. New years in 2315 BC, 105 days back from July 16, was April 3, the full moon = Jesus' sacrifice on April 3, 33 AD on the full moon. Joseph was 38 years old when Jacob and Israel entered Egypt. Jesus was 38 years old when he went to the cross.
Joseph was 38 when he invited his father and brothers into Egypt in 2307 BC. David was 38 when he became King of all Israel in 1077 BC. Hezekiah was 38 when he was near death and prayed and Isaiah gave him a sign - the sun retreated ten steps, Sunday, March 31, 703 BC, the third day, the day of the Passover - the full moon, = the 49 jubile year to Jesus' sacrifice, the Passover, April 3, 33 AD. Josiah was 38 when he died in battle in 611 BC on year 30 of the 50 year jubile from Joshua's long day August 10, 1241 BC.
Jesus was born about September 12, 7 BC and gave his life 38.5 years later April 3, 33 AD.
Normally, Arcturus was near the sun in September 7 BC = setting shortly in the west after the sun, and with the sun being 180° away, Arcturus would be directly overhead Bethlehem in September of 5 BC at midnight when Jesus was two years old.
Arcturus moves 2000 feet south every year. So, when Jesus was born about September 12, 7 BC, Arcturus would pass 4000 feet north of Bethlehem, and in September of 5 BC Arcturus would pass directly over Bethlehem.
Thus, two years later, Arcturus 4000 feet further south, Arcturus would pass directly over Bethlehem at midnight in September, up to September 12 in 5 BC when the wise men followed the star to Joseph and Mary's house where Jesus was at two years old.
You can see Arcturus a little to the upper left of the sun:
Arcturus today is a little to the left of the sun in September 2022:
Arcturus was seen through a telescope in the daytime in 1635; and can be seen with the naked eye at or just before sunset. But Arcturus is invisible beside the noon day sun = September. If the sun is on the other side of earth, Arcturus passes directly overhead at midnight. Thus, the Chinese may have recorded the Big Dipper in this unusual position on Joshua's Long Day in Israel.
he sun may have rose in the west on Joshua's Long Day. Thus, Arcturus would pass over China at midnight as God moved the sun east. Then again during the 24 hours of the longer day China be in darkness and again see Arcturus pass over at night.
Genesis 15:5 "And he brought him forth abroad, and said, Look now toward heaven, and tell the stars, if thou be able to number them: and he said unto him, So shall thy seed be."
One of the brightest stars in the sky would be Arcturus.
Genesis 12:4 "So Abram departed, as the LORD had spoken unto him; and Lot went with him: and Abram was seventy and five years old when he departed out of Haran."
In this 2532 BC when Abraham was 75, Arcturus would be about the 45th latitude. Haran was the 35th latitude. Hebron was the 30th latitude. So, when Abraham at Haran looked up to the north at night, he would see Arcturus. Thousands of years later, about September 12, 7 BC, 2600 years after the birth of Abraham, the wise men would look straight up when they got to Bethlehem and see Arcturus 90° straight up, and then enter the home of Joseph and Mary and worship Jesus when he was two years old.
Noah in Noah's flood in 3307 BC, floating north of the Aral Sea, would see Arcturus directly above at the 50° latitude:
Noah would see Arcturus pass directly above at midnight on the 17th day of the 7th month in a reverse orbit of the sun.
Genesis 8:4 "And the ark rested in the seventh month, on the seventeenth day of the month, upon the mountains of Ararat."
The 17th day of the 7th month = August 17, 3307 BC.
Arcturus moves 2,000 feet south a year. The wise men would see the star direclty above, in Persia or China, at midnight in September, when normally Arcturus sets with the sun in September. Thus, these many sun miracles recorded in China for years ending in X07 BC, like the phoenixes that appeared on the Fall equinox, the 17th day of the seventh month, day 57 of cycle 60 October 18, 2607 BC, 50th year from Huangdi's first year in 2756 BC, that this was it, the star of the King of Israel.
Then, in September of 5 BC Arcturus had moved 4000 feet south to exactly the Latitude of the house of Joseph and Mary, and the wise men arriving at the door openned their gifts and fell down and worshiped the child Jesus.
Genesis 8:4 "And the ark rested in the seventh month, on the seventeenth day of the month, beside the mountains of Ararat."
Some of the descendants of Noah may have migrated east to China and told the Chinese about Noah's flood. And again, this 17th day of the seventh month was 3307 BC, again was X07 BC years to Jesus' birth about September 12, 7 BC.
Genesis 15:12 "And when the sun was going down, a deep sleep fell upon Abram; and, lo, an horror of great darkness fell upon him.
15:13 And he said unto Abram, Know of a surety that thy seed shall be a stranger in a land that is not theirs, and shall serve them; and they shall afflict them four hundred years;"
"when the sun was going down" may refer to a sun miracle. God may have moved the sun around the earth at the speed of light for one hour like the dakness when Jesus was on the cross from the sixth hour = noon time. Thus the sun go down = the sun go around the earth.
Matthew 27:45 "Now from the sixth hour there was darkness over all the land unto the ninth hour.
27:46 And about the ninth hour Jesus cried with a loud voice, saying, Eli, Eli, lama sabachthani? that is to say, My God, my God, why hast thou forsaken me?"
Mark 15:33 "And when the sixth hour was come, there was darkness over the whole land until the ninth hour.
15:34 And at the ninth hour Jesus cried with a loud voice, saying, Eloi, Eloi, lama sabachthani? which is, being interpreted, My God, my God, why hast thou forsaken me?"
Luke 23:44 "Now it was already about the sixth hour, and darkness fell upon the whole earth and lasted until the ninth hour.
23:45 And the sun was obscured, and the veil of the temple was rent in the midst."
"an horror of great darkness" may refer to a night X seven = 7 X 12 hours, 84 hours, longer night.
Arcturus would pass directly over head in September because the sun would have moved to the other side of earth September 12, 7 BC. The wisemen who saw the star, must have seen Arcturus. Then for the wisemen to know where Jesus would be born, they would need a plumb line. There are drawings of this plumbline used at this time. Jesus is the plumbline because he never touched the earth, and was in line with Heaven.
Emperor Yao employed He and Ho to determine the four seasons after the sun stood still for ten days moving to the other side of earth, and earth in a reverse orbit needed new stars to mark the four seasons for agriculture. Then the four stars that would culminate, appear directly above, on the equinoxes and solstices at the 30th latitude of Hunan, using a jade spotting tube, in 2315 BC.
Then 2308 years later in 7 BC, perhaps Chinese astronomers came to know the King of the Jews would be born in Israel because of all the sun miracles pointing to September of 7 BC.
That is, the 17th day of the seventh month = the phoenixes at the birth of Abraham in October 18, 2607 BC = the 57 day of cycle 60, in Huangdi's 50th year from 2656 BC, in autumn = the fall equinox.
Likewise, the Chinese made a new emperor in 7 BC, possibly at Jesus' birth, and possibly at a sun miracle, and possibly when the wisemen departed for Israel to worship the King of the Jews. And possibly the sun was moved to the other side of earh September 12, 7 BC, and Arcturus rise in the east at sunset instead of set in the west with the sun at sunset. And Arcturus be "we have seen his star in the east" = Arcturus in the east.
"the star in the east" that appeared two years previous cannot be a comet that lasts three or four months, or a supernova that also lasts less than a year, or a planet that would keep over Bethlehem for two years.
The star Arcturus that would appear over Bethlehem at midnight in September after the sun moved to the other side of the earth in September 12, 7 BC = would still pass directly over Bethlehem in September of 5 BC = earth still in a reverse orbit of the sun.
The Chinese astronomers may have started on their journey immediately, arriving in Jerusalem two years later, in early September of 5 BC to ask how much further south to travel. Having received their answer Jesus would be born in Bethlehem, they would journey four more miles south to look for Arcturus to culminate directly above Bethlehem and above Joseph and Mary, in September of 5 BC.
The wisemen were travelling south. They stopped at Jerusalem to ask where the Christ would be born. They then travelled five more miles to Bethlehem. Likewise, Jacob was travelling south from Bethel to Ephrath Bethlehem, where Benjamin was born, and Rachel died.
Rachel died and Benjamin born 2336 BC or 2333 BC. Benjamin would be 8 years old, 9 years younger than his brother Joseph, when his brothers sold Joseph into Egypt. 2336 BC was a keatze year in China, year one of cycle sixty from 2636 BC.
Matthew 2:7 "Then Herod, when he had privily called the wise men, enquired of them diligently what time the star appeared."
The time God moved the sun to the other side of the earth in September of 7 BC, the star Arcturus would rise in the east at sunset instead of set in the west with the sun. Arcturus would thus pass overhead at midnight in September. Thus Herod "enquired of them diligently what time the star appeared."
Matthew 2:16 "Then Herod, when he saw that he was mocked of the wise men, was exceeding wroth, and sent forth, and slew all the children that were in Bethlehem, and in all the coasts thereof, from two years old and under, according to the time which he had diligently enquired of the wise men.
2:17 Then was fulfilled that which was spoken by Jeremy the prophet, saying,
2:18 In Rama was there a voice heard, lamentation, and weeping, and great mourning, Rachel weeping for her children, and would not be comforted, because they are not."
All scripture points to Jesus.
Job 39:2 "Canst thou number the months that they fulfil? or knowest thou the time when they bring forth?"
Genesis 35:16 "And they journeyed from Bethel; and there was but a little way to come to Ephrath: and Rachel travailed, and she had hard labour."
Genesis 35:18 "And it came to pass, as her soul was in departing, (for she died) that she called his name Benoni: but his father called him Benjamin."
Arcturus is at 19° north of the equator. The pole star at the time of Senemut's and Pharaoh Seti I's celestial ceiling, 1400 BC was at the star in the handle of the Big Dipper. Because of the precession of the equinoxes the pole star = north pole axis, has moved. The pole star now in 2000 AD is more than 10° above the lip of the Big Dipper and has moved more than 20° since 1360 BC. Then, in this September of 5 BC, Arcturus should be more than 10° further north = 12° plus the 19° it is now = 31° and pass directly over Bethlehem.
Every family in Scotland was required to have a Geneva Bible. The puritans and their descendants used the Geneva Bible until the 1700's.
The Geneva Bible:
From the Geneva Bible 1594 AD:
From the Geneva Bible: Bethlehem: Longitude 65:55 Latitude 31:51
The latitude of Bethlehem, Israel is 31.705791, and the longitude is 35.200657. gps coordinates of 31° 42' 20.8476'' N and 35° 12' 2.3652'' E.
Thus from 31:51 to 31:42 is .1 X 70 miles = 7 miles difference. Perhaps Bethlehem was 7 miles further north in 1594 AD, or the measurement in the Geneva Bible in 1594 was not accurate.
Note the longitude was 65° not 35°. The prime meridian did not yet go through Greenwich England at that time. The longitude was counted from the middle of the Atlantic, 30° further west. Thus, 30° in the Atlantic, plus 35° = 65°.
See Prime Meridian - History. Wikipedia.
Thus, the calculation even back in 1594 AD in this Geneva Bible was fairly accurate. Thus, the wisemen in their day could also be very accurate too.
The polar axis shifts about five inches a year.
"Earth has tilted 31.5 inches in less than two decades."
So, this 425 years ago Bethlehem would be at a slightly different latitude, perhaps a hundred meters different. Then 2000 years ago, Bethlehem may have been a kilometer different latitude.
Nevertheless, this shift of five inches may not continue in one direction, and may not be consistent. Our latitudes today may not be all that different than they were 2,000 years ago.
The US/Canadian border on the 49th parallel is not now on the 49th parallel, but the 49th parallel is some 30 feet further south since the map was drawn up one hundred years ago. The melting of the ice sheild of Greenland is one of the causes.
Also, the tectonic plates of Europe, Africa, and the Middle East move, perhaps an inch or more, every year. Over 2000 years, even inches add up. The Arabian plate is moving north. So Bethlehem must have been perhaps a hundred feet further south when Jesus was born. This makes it easier for Arcturus to pass directly overhead of Bethlehem when Jesus was born.
Arcturus is moving 2000 feet south a year as well.
Planetarium software shows Arcturus at 89° or simply 90° above Bethlehem, or 4000 feet north of Bethelehm, at midnight in March of 7 BC. Thus, if God moved the sun to the other side of earth when Jesus was born probably September 12, 7 BC: Arcturus would pass directly, 90°, above Bethlehem two years later. Thus in two years of earth's reverse orbit, Arcturus would pass directly above Bethlehem when the wise men followed the star.
The wise men came to Jerusalem to ask where Jesus would be born. Upon hearing it was in Bethlehem, the wise men may use a quadrant with a plumb line to locate Arcturus directly above, and come to the house of Joseph and Mary when Jesus was almost two years old, about a few weeks before the sun returned again September 15, 5 BC and earth flow out of the reverse orbit.
Here you see Arcturus where it is now. Note that it is at 19° Dec (Topocentric) = 10° further south than it was 2000 years ago in 5 BC; because of the precession of the equinoxes.
Here you see Arcturus at 29:29 degrees in 5 BC = 29:29° Dec (Topocentric). Bethlehem was at about 30° latitude. Thus, straight up from 30° is 90° is Arcturus at the time of Jesus' birth.
You can see Thuban is just above the handle of the Big Dipper. Thus, in the time of Christ, the polar axis would be between Thuban and Polaris. Below you see Thuban in the center of the circle of the polar axis 1400 BC:
Here you see the pole position is Thuban at the middle of the circle in 3000 BC.
Here you can see Thuban, the pole star in 3000 BC:
Here you can see the relative movement of Arcturus over the millenia. You can see Arcturus moved down from 2000 BC = to the present in 4000 years. Arcturus would be directly over Bethlehem 2000 years ago.
Sky and Telescope
Arcturus moving from 32° to 19° = 13°. The sun and moon are 4° across. Thus, Arcturus has moved south 3 times the width of the sun or moon from this 32° latitude in 5 BC.
Job 38:32 "Canst thou bring forth Mazzaroth in his season? or canst thou guide Arcturus with his sons?"
For Arcturus to be foreseen to pass directly over Bethlehem, means the whole galaxy had to have been made with the purpose to point to Jesus. Even sun miracles from the beginning of recorded time, from the Armenian Sothis calendar, from the appearing of the star Sirius at dawn both from 5368 BC 1460 years from 6828 BC 1460 years from 8288 BC; - 39 years of Jesus' life + 32 years to Jesus' sacrifice April 3, 33 AD = 169 X 49 year jubiles.
Creating the galaxy, the near side of our Milky Way galaxy, includes creating the seven stars of the Big Dipper, and Orion, and the seven stars of Pleiades too.
Both Arcturus and Sirius must have been created to point to Jesus.
For Arcturus to pass directly over Bethlehem, the house of Joseph and Mary, when Jesus was two years old in September of 5 BC, the star Arcturus must continue to pass 2,000 feet south a year to exactly match the house of Joseph and Mary, and Jesus.
From the Dead Sea Scrolls Translated:
Job 38:31 "of the Pleiades, or you open the fence of Orion?
38:32 you undo the Evening Star? with his sons?
38:33 the clouds.."
In September Arcturus sets as the evening star with the sun. To undo the evening star would be to make it rise in the east at sunset, not set in the west at sunset, by moving the sun to the other side of the earth..
For Arcturus to pass directly over Bethlehem at midnight in September of 7 BC or rather 5 BC; the star must be moved to fit earth's precession of the equinoxes. That is Arcturus must move to exactly and timely pass directly over the house of Joseph and Mary and Jesus in September of 5 BC. Arcturus probably was already in motion to match this Bethlehem transit, but God probably guided Arcturus exactly.
Likewise, when earth was in a reverse orbit Arcturus would be the evening star in March/April on the Passover. Perhaps earth was in a reverse orbit during Jesus' ministry. Then Arcturus would have been the evening star that Friday night, April 3, 33 AD when Jesus was on the cross. Normally Arcturus would pass directly above Israel at midnight on the Passover.
And perhaps this specific time of Jesus' birth was planned thousands of years before. Such as from Adam in 4668 BC and the beginning of the Armenian Sothis calendar in 5368 BC = both 4700 years before Jesus' sacrifice, and 5400 years before Jesus' sacrifice. One sothis cycle later, 5368 BC - 1461 years = 3907 BC = 3900 years to Jesus' birth in 7 BC.
One sothis cycle back from 5368 BC - 1461 years = 6829 BC. 38.5 years back is 6868 BC that is 6900 years before Jesus' sacrifice, April 3, 33 AD.
Also, When God moved the sun to the other side of the earth, earth would be guided in the reverse orbit and Arcturus pass overhead. The sun must be moved to the other side of the earth for Arcturus to pass directly overhead at midnight in September.
Arcturus is in the constellation of the Herdsman, Bootes. Arcturus is pictured as the loins of the Herdsman. Thus, Jesus born in the sheep's breeding season of September.
Luke 12:35 "Let your loins be girded about, and your lights burning;"
Numbers 24:17 "I shall see him, but not now: I shall behold him, but not nigh: there shall come a Star out of Jacob, and a Sceptre shall rise out of Israel,"
Thus a star out of Jacob the shepherd = Bootes.
Perhaps the 89° given in a old planetarium software, Dance of the Planets, for Arcturus above Bethlehem did not include this small movement of Arcturus. And even if it did, and the movement of Arcturus projected back to the time of Christ, we still do not know where the star was 2000 years ago because there were no accurate measurements made and recorded back then. And if God moved the star, we are no more the wiser.
This movement of Arcturus was in the direction to make the 89° to be 90° above Bethlehem. Thus, either way, by rounding error or inaccurate plotting of Arcturus' movement, Arcturus most probably was directly above Bethlehem when Jesus was born, or rather two years later when the wise men came to Bethlehem to look for the King of the Jews.
Arcturus may have passed directly over Jerusalem when Herod began rebuilding the temple in 18 BC. Then the sun move to the other side of earth September 12, 7 BC, and two years later in September of 5 BC Arcturus pass over Bethlehem where the wise men found Jesus.
Arcturus is 37 light years away. Then, the light that left Arcturus at Jesus' birth would only just reach earth just before Jesus was crucified.
Amos 7:8 "And the LORD said unto me, Amos, what seest thou? And I said, A plumbline. Then said the Lord, Behold, I will set a plumbline in the midst of my people Israel: I will not again pass by them any more:"
2 Kings 21:13 "And I will stretch over Jerusalem the line of Samaria, and the plummet of the house of Ahab: and I will wipe Jerusalem as a man wipeth a dish, wiping it, and turning it upside down."
Isaiah 28:17 "Judgment also will I lay to the line, and righteousness to the plummet: and the hail shall sweep away the refuge of lies, and the waters shall overflow the hiding place."
Zechariah 4:10 "For who hath despised the day of small things? for they shall rejoice, and shall see the plummet in the hand of Zerubbabel with those seven; they are the eyes of the LORD, which run to and fro through the whole earth."
Sun miracles often point to Jesus' birth in 7 BC, life of 38 years, and sacrifice, April 3, 33 AD, many times over many thousands of years. The 49 year jubile from 5358 BC 110 X 49 to 33 AD, and from Adam in year 700, 4672 BC = 96 X 49; all the way to Jesus' sacrifice April 3, 33 AD. From 4672 BC are 94 X 50 year jubiles to Jesus speaking from Isaiah 61 in Luke 4 on Yom Kippur, September 9, 29 AD, or October 7, 29 AD.
Matthew 26:53 "Thinkest thou that I cannot now pray to my Father, and he shall presently give me more than twelve legions of angels?
26:54 But how then shall the scriptures be fulfilled, that thus it must be?"
Mark 14:49 "I was daily with you in the temple teaching, and ye took me not: but the scriptures must be fulfilled."
"historians generally agree the only historical accurate part of the Old Testament comes after the death of Moses, because historians have no historical evidence of Adam, Noah and Abraham, etc, but they do know that a kingdom was established around the time of King David."
The Bible Doesn't Say That, p.41
Creation began when Adam was born. Thus, the jubiles begin also from when Adam was born.
Romans 15:4 "For whatsoever things were written aforetime were written for our learning, that we through patience and comfort of the scriptures might have hope."
The year of the world, Annos Mundi, began the count to Adam in year 700. Thus, the year of the world, AM, was 5368 BC = 1461 years before the new sothis cycle in 3907 BC; 5368 BC = 5400 years to Jesus' sacifice, 3907 BC = 3900 years to Jesus' birth.
49 year jubiles from Adam in year 700 in the Septuagint, 4672 BC or 50 year jubiles from 4668 BC = 4700 years to Jesus' sacrifice April 3, 33 AD, or from 4672 BC = 4700 years to the beginning of Jesus' ministry September 9, 29 AD or October 7, 29 AD.
Noah from the 27th jubile 5 weeks sixth year = 1364 years from 4672 BC = 3307 BC = Noah's 600th year from the beginning of the Armenian Sothis cycle in 3907 BC = 3307 BC = 3300 years to Jesus' birth in 7 BC.
Abraham born in 2607 BC in Ur = Abraham Y-DNA J1e descendants from Ur from 2607 BC, as is Jacob Y-DNA J1 from 2300 BC Jacob entering into Egypt. Jacob was born in 2437 BC = 130 years old when Pharaoh asked his age, in 2307 BC. Thus, the date + 150 years or - 150 years at 2300 BC was back 137 years. Thus, Jacob was born 13 years within this + 150 year earlier than 2300 BC estimation, and Jacob entered Egypt in this 2307 BC.
The city of Ur began about 3000 BC.
All the ages of the patriarchs, also, are all accurate. Sun miracles from the birth of Abraham in 2607 BC in China = Huangdi's 50th year, accurately back up the Bible. The whole Bible is accurate.
49 year jubiles from 1241 BC - the year of Joshua's long day, to Jesus' sacrifice April 3, 33 AD. Also, dates ending with 07 point to Jesus' birth September 12, 7 BC and dates ending 45 point to Jesus' life of 38 years; 45 BC to 7 BC. Years ending in 68 are even 100 years to Jesus' sacrifice April 3, 33 AD.
49 X 49 year jubiles from 2369 BC, 2401 years, to Jesus' sacrifice April 3, 33 AD, and 50 year jubiles from Adam in Armenian sothis year 800 = 4568 BC where was the 44th jubile 44 X 50 from 4568 BC = 2368 BC or 44 X 49 + 44 years also = 2368 BC = Jacob at 70; that also equals 2400 years to Jesus' sacrifice April 3, 33 AD. There are two dates for Adam, year 700 in the Septuagint and year 800 in the Hebrew. Thus, here year 800 for Adam was used.
47 X 49 = 2303 years. From Adam in 4672 BC - 2303 years = 2369 BC. The sothis calendar backs up one day every four years. Thus Adam from 4672 BC or from 4668 BC. 4672 BC in 50 year jubiles points to the beginning of Jesus' ministry in September 9, 29 AD, or October 7, 29 AD.
4668 BC in 50 year jubiles points to Jesus' sacrifice in April 3, 33 AD.
From Adam in 4672 BC to Jesus' sacrifice April 3, 33 AD are 96 X 49 years. Thus, from Adam to Jesus' sacrifice are 96 jubiles.
The King James Version uses the word jubile not jubilee. There is a difference. In Hebrew, the jubile year is called the "yovel year" = a ram = a trumpet. By coincedence the Latin "jubil" sounds like Hebrew "yobel". Thus, the connection is only phonetically to yobel and only means yobel = ram's horn, and not jubilee.
Yobel: a blowing of a trumpet as in a battle cry, rejoicing.
The year of release better matches "yobel" trumpet.
Jobelaeus is a very different word from Jubilo.
This Italian Bible uses the word Giubileo and there also is a Greek word that is pronounced Jubilee too. Thus, phonetically translated Jubilee in Italian and Greek. But the Hebrew Yobel is not the similar sounding Jubilee.
"annus jubileus" for the 100 years by Pope Boniface VIII in 1300 AD. Thus, the Italian word Giubileo for jubilee. The Latin Jobelaeus is different than the Latin Jubileus = the Italian Giubileo.
Jobelaeus and Jubilee are two different words and two different meanings, the yobel year and to be jubilant.
Thus, the Latin Jobelaeus simply sounds phonetically like the Hebrew Yobel for a ram's horn.
Thus, Jobelaeus has no Latin meaning, it is simply the phonetical sound of the Hebrew word Yobel.
Leviticus 25:9 "Then shalt thou cause the trumpetH7782 of the jubileH8643 to soundH5674 on the tenth day of the seventh month, in the day of AtonementH3725 shall ye make the trumpetH7782 soundH5674 throughout all your land.
25:10 And ye shall hallowH6942 (H853) the fiftiethH2572 year, and proclaimH7121 libertyH1865 throughout all the land unto all the inhabitants thereof: it shall be a jubileH3104 unto you; and ye shall returnH7725 every man unto his possession, and ye shall returnH7725 every man unto his family."
Thus liberty H1865 is the meaning.
Jeremiah 6:16 "Thus saith the LORD, Stand ye in the ways, and see, and ask for the old paths, where is the good way, and walk therein, and ye shall find rest for your souls. But they said, We will not walk therein.
6:17 Also I set watchmen over you, saying, Hearken to the sound of the trumpet. But they said, We will not hearken."
Leviticus 25:10 "And ye shall hallow the fiftieth year, and proclaim libertyH1865 throughout all the land unto all the inhabitants thereof: it shall be a jubileH3104 unto you; and ye shall returnH7725 every man unto his possession, and ye shall returnH7725 every man unto his family."
jubileH3104 is Yobel in Hebrew for a ram's horn. Thus, the Latin Jobelaeus is phonetically from the Hebrew word Yobel.
La Bibbia
"Quest' anno portera il nome di Giubileo" = this year will bear, will bring, the name Jubilee.
Acts 2:19 "And I will shew wondersG5059 in heavenG3772 above,G507 and signsG4592 in the earthG1093 beneath;G2736 blood,G129 and fire,G4442 and vapourG822 of smoke:G2586"
wondersG5059 is much the same word as the jubile, portent, omen, and is the actual fulfillmet of the jubile from the beginning of the Bible when Jesus was on the cross and the sun was darkened for three hours.
The note in the Greek Septuagint the Greek word for jubile in Leviticus 25:10 is a "manifestation" "indication" and not the Greek word for jubile that is pronounced jubile.

The modern Greek for jubilee is the modern English meaning and pronounciation.
Leviticus 25:10 "And ye shall hallow the fiftieth year, and proclaim liberty throughout all the land unto all the inhabitants thereof: it shall be a jubile unto you; and ye shall return every man unto his possession, and ye shall return every man unto his family."
Leviticus 25:10 "And ye shall sanctify the year, the fiftieth year, and ye shall proclaim a release upon the land to all that inhabit it; it shall be given a year of release, a jubilee for you; and each one shall depart to his possession, and ye shall go to each family."
Thus, the word "liberty" in the Greek is jubilee, as is "it shall be a jubilee"
Thus you can see the same Greek word used for the Jubilee in Leviticus 25 is used in the Greek Luke 4:18 when Jesus spoke from Isaiah 61 and fulfilled the jubile.

Luke 4 in Greek:
The Interlinear Bible
You can see the Greek for Isaiah 61 is almost identical to the Greek for Luke 4:
You can see the footnote above to Luke 4:18.
Jesus would read the Hebrew version of Isaiah 61, the word for liberty H1865:
Here you see the Hebrew version of Isaiah 61 in the Aleppo Codex, 930 AD. The Isaiah Dead Sea Scroll ends with chapter 55.
The Aleppo Codex was written in Tiberius near the village of Nazareth of Jesus by Ben Ashur. Jesus probably read from a scroll in script like the Dead Sea Scrolls. There are three or four complete copies of Isaiah in the Dead Sea Scrolls, but the one copy of Isaiah that is online ends by Isaiah 55.
Thus, you can see the Greek word for release of debt for the Hebrew Yovel that in turn was called the Jubilee.
John Wycliffe, when he wrote the English Bible in 1380, was the first to call the yovel year, the 50th year, a jubilee.
He changed the word "iobeleus" in the Latin Vulgate to be jubilee.
The King James version gives jubile is different from jubilee.
Likewise, the William Tyndale New Testament, the first English printed bible from 1526, the word "liberty" Luke 4:18. "sett att liberte".
The Latin jobelaeus for the Hebrew yovel was changed to jubilaeus due to the similar sounding Latin verb jubilare to shout for joy.
The Latin Vulgate has the word iobeleus = jobeleus = year of the jubilee among Jews; (slaves freed and property reverts); 50th year. Jerome translated the Bible from the Hebrew into Latin in 382 AD.
In the Latin definition, for Jubilee is Jubilo = shout/sing out/joyfully, rejoice, invoke with/let out shouts/whoops, halloo.
Nevertheless, in the Latin Vulgate the word is jobelaeus phonetically from Yobel a ram's horn.
The fulfillment of the jubile was the beginning of Jesus' ministry, thus the real meaning of the jubile.
Isaiah 61:1 'The Spirit of the Lord GOD is upon me; because the LORD hath anointed me to preach good tidings unto the meek; he hath sent me to bind up the brokenhearted, to proclaim liberty to the captives, and the opening of the prison to them that are bound;
61:2 To proclaim the acceptable year of the LORD, and the day of vengeance of our God; to comfort all that mourn;
61:3 To appoint unto them that mourn in Zion, to give unto them beauty for ashes, the oil of joy for mourning, the garment of praise for the spirit of heaviness; that they might be called trees of righteousness, the planting of the LORD, that he might be glorified."
Back 110 X 49 year jubiles from Jesus' sacrifice, April 3, 33 AD, to 5358 BC. Joseph and Joshua lived to 110 years, perhaps a parallel. Thus, there is a ten year gap from the 49 year jubile from the beginning Armenian Sothis calendar from 5368 BC instead ten years more recent from 5358 BC. Both the 49 year jubile and the 50 year jubile work from 4672 BC = Adam in Sothis year 700, in 49 year jubiles to Jesus' sacrifice April 3, 33 AD. And in 50 year jubiles to the beginning of Jesus' ministry September 9, 29 AD or October 7, 29 AD.
From the beginning of the sothis cycle 5368 BC = 5400 years = 108 X 50 years to Jesus' sacrifice April 3, 33 AD.
The sothis calendar backs up one day every four years. So the date year 700 from one day earlier is four years further back; year 700 in 4668 BC may instead be 4672 BC. The sothis calendar may have started one day earlier. Then instead of a sothis cycle of 1460 years, the sothis cylcle from 5372 BC to 3907 BC be 1464 years. A sothis calendar backs up four years every one day = like our February 29 and our 365.25 year.
Noah's flood counting from Adam in year 700; 4672 BC to 3307 BC.
Adam's birth year in Genesis is year 800, 4568 BC from 5368 BC. However, in the Septuagint in Genesis Adam's birth is in year 700 = 4672 BC from 5368 BC.
Adam's death in Armenian Sothis year 930 = the same 930 years in the Hebrew and the Septuagint = (19 X 49) from 5358 BC.
Saturday, April 2, 4437 BC was the full moon. Jesus went to the cross Friday, April 3, 33 AD.
Sunday, May 31, 4437 BC was the full moon. 4437 / 128 = 35 days = March 27. The exodus on the Passover was on March 30, 1281 BC; 1281 BC / 128 years = 10 days = the spring equinox March 20 today.
The lunar day matches the calendar every 19 years. 19 X 49 = 931 years. Thus, the Passover in 4437 BC; 5368 BC - 931 years, or 931 years from 5358 BC is 4427 BC = 49 year jubiles to Jesus' sacrifice April 3, 33 AD = when Adam died = the Passover when Jesus gave his sacrifice. Thus, to begin this calendar on the Passover in 5368 BC = 5400 years to the Passover when Jesus gave his life, April 3, 33 AD.
From Adam in year 700 in 4672 BC are 96 X 49 year jubiles. Adam in year 931 from 5368 BC = 4437 BC. Thus, a ten year correction to the 49 year jubile to count not from 5368 BC but from 5358 BC. 931 years back from 5372 BC = 4441 BC = 4400 years to Joshua's long day August 10, 1241 BC. One day sothis baks up in four years, beginning from either 5368 BC or 5372 BC.
Genesis 5:3 "And Adam lived an hundred and thirty years, and begat a son in his own likeness, after his image; and called his name Seth:"
Genesis 5:5 "And all the days that Adam lived were nine hundred and thirty years: and he died."
In the Septuagint;
Genesis 5:3 "And Adam lived two hundred and thirty years, and begat a son in his own likeness, after his image; and called his name Seth:"
Adam lived 230 years from 4668 BC to 4438 BC.
"the first that was buried in the ground. And he was seventy years short of one thousand years. For a thousand years are one day in the testimony of Heaven. Therefore it is written about the tree of knowledge: 'For on the day you eat from it you shall die.' Therefore he did not complete the years of that day because he died during it. At the conclusion of this jubilee."
The Dead Sea Scrolls, 11Qjub.
Adam at year 931 from Amenian sothis year 5368 BC. 19 X 49 jubiles = 931 years. Thus Adam died on the 49 year jubile. From 5358 BC are 110 X 49 jubiles to Jesus' sacrifice. From 5368 BC are 108 X 50 jubiles to Jesus' sacrifice.
Adam died 69 years short of 1000 years. That is, 69 years short of year 1000 from the beginning of the Armenian sothis cycle.
Adam lived 130 years in the Hebrew Masoretic text and 230 in the Greek Septuagint text. Thus, Adam died 70 years short of 200 years or 70 years short of 300 years. From 5368 BC 1000 years are 4568 BC = 4600 years to Jesus' sacrifice April 3, 33 AD. Jacob was born in Isaac's 69th year. Enoch was recorded in year 300 = 3607 BC from 3907 BC.
The calendar backs up one day in the process of backing up one day every four years. 4 X 365 = 1460 years including this cycle is also one day. From 5368 BC 1461 years = 3907 BC.
"And at the close of the 19th jublile, in the seventh week, the sixth year, Adam died."
The Ancient Book of the Jubilees, p.26.
19 X 49 = 931 years; + 7 + 5 from 5372 BC = 4429 BC. 5358 BC - 930 years = 4429 BC also.
1000 years in duodecimal, base 12 not base 10, = 12 X 12 X 10 = 1440 years, 20 more years is 1460 = a sothis cycle.
From Adam's death in 931 AM is 69 years to 1000 years = a 49 year jubile and again 20 more years to 1000 Annos Mundi = year of the world = from 5368 BC.
In this 2023 AD = year of the world 7390 = 5368 BC + 2023.
365 days in Egyptian, 100 + 100 + 100 + (6 X 10) + 5:
In duodecimal: 144 + 144 + (6 X 12) + 5:
"And in the sixth year, in the seventh week of this jubilee, Abraham called Isaac, his son..I am old and I do not know the day of my death..I am one hundred and seventy-two"
The Dead Sea Scrolls, Study Edition, Volume 1, p.467.
From 2607 BC - 172 = 2435 BC = 2237 years from 4672 BC = 45 X 49 = 2205 years + 32 years. "the sixth year, seventh week" may equal 32 years. 4 weeks and sixth year = 28 + 5 = 33 years.
From Adam in 4568 BC; 43 X 49 + 3 X 7 + 5(sixth year) 2133 years = 2435 BC.
"Jacob's wife Leah died in the fourth year of the second week in the forty-fifth jubile."
The Dead Sea Scrolls, 4Q223-224.
45 X 50 year jubiles = 2250 + 4 + (2 X 7) = 2268 years, from 4568 BC = 2300 BC = the last year of the seven years of famine from 2308 BC.
Counting 46 jubiles instead of 45 jubiles:
From Adam in 4568 BC; 46 X 49 years + 7 + 4 = 2265: 4568 BC - 2265 years = 2303 BC = the last year of famine in Egypt, the seventh year from 2308 BC.
Either there were 45 X 50 year jubiles, or there were 46 X 49 year jubiles or Leah died before Joseph was born in 2345 BC = 38 years of Jesus' life to Jacob and his sons coming into Egypt in the second year of famine, 2307 BC = 2300 years to Jesus' birth about September 12, 7 BC.
From 5358 BC, continuing to Jesus' sacrifice, are 110 X 49 years to 33 AD.
From 5368 BC, continuing to Jesus' sacrifice, are 108 X 50 years to 33 AD.
A sothis cycle means the calendar backs up one day every four years = 365 days in 1460 years or counting the current cycle of one year, in 1461 years. The Armenian sothis cycle ended not in 552 AD, but was 76 years earlier in 476 AD, or 474 AD, just as the Egyptian sothis calendar was 76 years earlier: Pharaoh Merneptah died, not in 1205 BC but in at the end of the Egyptian Sothis cycle 1281 BC.
The Acacian schizm between Rome and Contantinople was about this 476 AD.
"476 AD was the year of the last Roman Emperor based in Rome itself, Romulus Augustulus. After this, the western half of the Roman world was divided up among barbarian rulers."
Byzantanium, The Surprising LIfe of a Medieval Empire, The East Roman Empire, p.24
Thus, the Armenian Sothis calendar ended in this 476 AD at the division of the Roman Empire.
When Constantine convened the Catholic church to decide on a rule for when Easter would fall, there was a division. Part followed Paul and part followed the Apostles. Thus, Ukranian Christmas is January 7. Then in 552 AD the Roman church split from the eastern church which was supposed to be the end of the Armenian sothis calendar. Like the Egyptian Sothis calendar they too were out by 76 years. Moving both calendars back 76 years matches all recorded dates.
There is a 10 years difference from the beginning of the the Armenian sothis calendar, 49 year jubiles from 5358 BC, but the sothis calendar beginning should be 5372 BC or 5368 BC: Back 1460 years from 474 AD, 988 BC, 2448 BC, 3907 BC = 5368 BC = 5400 years to Jesus' sacrifice April 3, 33 AD. Or back 1464 years from 3907 BC to 5372 BC and 5400 years to the beginning of Jesus' ministry September 9, 29 AD, or October 7, 29 AD.
The 49 years jubilees were counted from 5358 BC, 10 years later.
So a difference from the beginning, from 5368 BC and 5358 BC.
"And Noah made the ark..in the twenty-seventh jubilee of years, in the fifth week, in the fifth year" "and entered the ark in the sixth year."
Ancient Book of Jubilees, p.30.
From the Septuagint three verses:
Genesis 6:3 "And Adam lived two hundred and thirty years and he begat a son after his own form, and after his own image, and he called his name Seth.
6:4 And the days of Adam, which he lived after his begetting of Seth, were seven hundred years; and he begat sons and daughters.
6:5 And all the days of Adam which he lived were nine hundred and thirty years, and he died."
In 120 years the sothis calendar backs up 30 days = one month.
Counting to Noah's flood from Adam in year 700 Armenian Sothis from 5368 BC = 4668 BC to 3307 BC are 27 jubilees + 5 X 7 + 4 = 3307 BC. To be exact from 4670 BC or 4672 BC - 1323 - 35 - 5 = 3307 BC.
700 years after Adam was 60, about when Seth may be born, in year 760 = 1460 years, a complete sothis cycle from 5368 BC to 3907 BC = 3900 years to Jesus' birth in 7 BC.
Year 760 of Adam from 4668 BC would be 4608 BC = 100 years to Jesus' birth in 7 BC.
(27 X 49) + (5 X 7) = 4 (5th year) = 1323 + 35 + 4; from Adam - this year 700 in the Septuagint - in 4668 BC - 1361 = 3307 BC. Or more accurately from 4671 BC - (27 X 49) + (5 X 7) + 6 = 3307 BC.
From year 700 to the next cycle year 600 (700 - 600 = 100) = 1460 - 100 = 1360. 1323 + 35 = 1358; fourth year = 1361 = 3307 BC.
14 X 49 = 686 years. 5358 BC - 686 - 1323 - 35 - 6 = 3307 BC.
The sothis new year backed up one day every four years. So, in year 600 of Noah entering the ark, the new year had backed up to February 11, 3307 BC from July 11, 3907 BC. This should be the fifth year, only now was February 11 and began the new year and thus the sixth year.
Thus 27 X 49 + 38 = 1323 + 38 = 1361 + 3307 BC = 4668 BC = year 700 with Adam. The 38 more years = the 38 years of Jesus' life.
Lamech was 182 in 3312 BC. Back 38 years from 3307 BC is 3345 BC, the 38 years of Jesus' life in reverse like 45 BC to 7 BC. Then Lamech would be 147 years old in this 3345 BC = the age of Jacob and also = 3 X 49 year jubiles = 147 years. Joseph born in 2345 BC and Jacob entering Egypt in 2307 BC at 130 years of age and living 17 more years to 147 years old.
182 years back from 3312 BC = 3494 BC. 3496 BC was the 49 year jubile to Jesus' sacrifice.
Then the 49 year jubile in 3349 BC = 37 more years for Lamech = the 38 years of Jesus' life.
3300 BC was a 49 year jubile. 7 more years from Noah's flood in 3307 BC to this 3300 BC was a 49 year jubile from 5358 BC. 3307 BC was a seventh year sabbath year - year 42 = 6 X 7.
"And in the seventh week (Pentecost) in the first year thereof, in this jubile, 3300 BC, Noah planted vines"
Ancient Book of Jubilees, p.37.
Thus, was counted correctly recorded the 49 year jubile from 5358 BC to Jesus' sacrifice April 3, 33 AD.
"[And Jacob left Beersheba to go] to Haran in the first year [of the second week of the forty-fourth jubilee].[on the first (day) of the first month of this week].. and spent the night there because the sun had set."
10 Jubilees, 1Q 17, Jub 27:19-21, The Dead Sea Scrolls, Study Edition. Volume I. p.25.
"And he went up from thence to the Well of the Oath in the first year of the first week in the forty-fourth jubilee [2108 AM]. And the Lord appeared to him that night, on the new moon of the first month, and said unto him: "I am the God of Abraham thy father; fear not, for I am with thee, and shall bless thee and shall surely multiply thy seed as the sand of the earth.."
The Ancient Book of Jubilees, p.93.
4568 BC - 2156 years (44 X 49) = 2412 BC; when Isaac was 95 years old. The first week may = 2407 BC when Isaac was 100. That is, the 44th jubilee is not 2108 years = 43 X 49 but 44 X 49 = 2157 years.
Abraham went to offer up Isaac when Isaac was 38 years old = his mother Sarah 127 years old = Abraham 139 years old from 2607 BC = 2468 BC = the 49 year jubile = 51 X 49 year jubiles to Jesus' sacrifice April 3, 33 AD = 2500 years from 2468 BC to April 3, 33 AD = 50 X 50 year jubiles to April 3, 33 AD.
2418 BC was the 49 year jubile when Isaac was 90 years old. Years X18 BC point to Jesus' sacrifice in 50 year jubiles to April 3, 33 AD.
2407 BC = 2400 years to Jesus' birth about September 12, 7 BC.
Genesis 25:26 "And after that came his brother out, and his hand took hold on Esau's heel; and his name was called Jacob: and Isaac was threescore years old when she bare them."
From 2507 BC Isaac was 60 in 2447 BC. There are 40 years to this 2407 BC like the 38.5 years of Jesus' life.
The Armenian Sothis cycle began again in 2447 BC = 1460 years back to 3907 BC = 3900 years to Jesus' birth in 7 BC and 1460 years ahead to 987 BC = the death of Rehoboam King of Judah.
Most likely Isaac was 69 years old when Jacob was born in 2438 BC, the number 9 being ommitted.
Genesis 28:11 "And he lighted upon a certain place, and tarried there all night, because the sun was set; and he took of the stones of that place, and put them for his pillows, and lay down in that place to sleep.
28:12 And he dreamed, and behold a ladder set up on the earth, and the top of it reached to heaven: and behold the angels of God ascending and descending on it."
Genesis 28:18 "And Jacob rose up early in the morning, and took the stone that he had put for his pillows, and set it up for a pillar, and poured oil upon the top of it."
"the sun was set" may mean the sun was set in the east. "rose up early" may mean the sun rose suddenly in the east.
Genesis 28:20 "And Jacob vowed a vow, saying, If God will be with me, and will keep me in this way that I go, and will give me bread to eat, and raiment to put on,
28:21 So that I come again to my father's house in peace; then shall the LORD be my God:"
This is the well of the oath.
John 4:12 "Art thou greater than our father Jacob, which gave us the well, and drank thereof himself, and his children, and his cattle?"
Luke 24:1 "Now upon the first day of the week, very early in the morning, they came unto the sepulchre, bringing the spices which they had prepared, and certain others with them."
Matthew 28:1 "In the end of the sabbath, as it began to dawn toward the first day of the week, came Mary Magdalene and the other Mary to see the sepulchre."
Psalm 112:4 "Unto the upright there ariseth light in the darkness: he is gracious, and full of compassion, and righteous."
Psalm 37:6 "And he shall bring forth thy righteousness as the light, and thy judgment as the noonday."
Psalm 27:1 A Psalm of David. "The LORD is my light and my salvation; whom shall I fear? the LORD is the strength of my life; of whom shall I be afraid?"
The first month = the month of the Passover - the second week = the 14th day of the first month = the day of the Passover. The first day of the week is Sunday. Jesus' resurrection was the first day of the week, just after the Passover.
The 50 year jubile may have been meant, the 44th 50 year jubile from Adam in the Armenian sothis year 800, 4568 BC to 2368 BC when Jacob at 70 left Beersheba to go to Haran.
Or the 49 year jubile; 44 X 49 + 44 years; that is, the 44th year may have been omitted because it was thought to be a typo: 44 44.
Then 44 X 49 + 44 years to 2468 BC. 44 X 50 years to 2468 BC. From 2468 BC are 50 X 50 years to Jesus' sacrifice April 3, 33 AD. From 2468 BC are 51 X 49 years to Jesus' sacrifice.
Abraham born 2607 BC, Isaac born 2507 BC, Jacob born when Isaac was 69 (not 60) 2438 BC, Jacob was 70 in 2368 BC. Are all 50 jubiles to Jesus' birth in 7 BC and Jesus' sacrifice in 33 AD.
"And in the middle of the sixth month the Lord visited Sarah and did unto her as He had spoken and she conceived. And she bare a son in the third month, and in the middle of the month, at the time of which the Lord had spoken to Abraham, on the festival of the first fruits of the harvest [Pentecoste], Isaac was born."
Ancient Book of Jubilees.p.70.
June 13, 2507 BC, would be the day of Pentecost.
Genesis 17:1 "And when Abram was ninety years old and nine, the LORD appeared to Abram, and said unto him, I am the Almighty God; walk before me, and be thou perfect."
Genesis 17:21 "But my covenant will I establish with Isaac, which Sarah shall bear unto thee at this set time in the next year."
"this set time" be from Abraham's birthday when he was 99, the 17th day of the 7th month, October 18, 2607 BC; Isaac be born the next year at the in-gathering of fruits the 17th day of the 7th month, or if the following account is true, at Pentecost in 2507 BC.
"And she bare a son in the third month and in the middle of the month, at the time of which the Lord had spoken to Abraham, on the festival of the first-fruits of the harvest [Pentecost], Isaac was born.
The Ancient Book of Jubilees, p.70.
Thus, both 2368 BC is 50 year jubiles 44 X 50 from Adam in 4668 BC to 2368 BC and from 2368 BC 48 X 50 to Jesus' sacrifice April 3, 33 AD; and from 2369 BC are 49 X 49 year jubiles, 2401 years, to Jesus' sacrifice April 3, 33 AD.
Thus, also there are many 50 year jubiles to Jesus' birth in 7 BC. The new Armenian sothis cycle in 3907 BC, Noah's flood in 3307 BC, Abraham's birth in 2607 BC, Isaac's birth in 2507 BC, Jacob entering Egypt for the sojourn in 2307 BC to name a few.
From the beginning of the Armenian Sothis calendar in 5368 BC, backing up 10 years to 5358 BC, are 110 X 49 year jubiles to Jesus' sacrifice, April 3, 33 AD.
From Adam's birth in the Armenian Sothis calendar year 700 = 4668 BC: "the 27th jubile, the fifth week, the fifth year = (27 X 49) + (5 X 7) + 4 years = 1365 years to Noah's flood in 3307 BC; the fifth year from Armenian Sothis year 595 = the death of Lamech, to Armenian Sothis year 600 = the flood.
27 X 50 jubiles = 3350 years. 4668 BC - 3350 years = 3307 BC = year 600 Armenian sothis = 3300 years to Jesus' birth in 7 BC.
Then, from Jacob's 70th year in 2369 BC, would equal the 45th 49 year jubile, 44th 50 year jubile, from Adam in year 800 = 4568 BC, all the way, 49 X 49 years to Jesus' sacrifice, April 3, 33 AD.
From Jacob in this his 70th year, 2369 BC, are 49 X 49 years to Jesus' sacrifice April 3, 33 AD. This 44th 49 year jubile plus 44 years is 5 years short 49 years. However, from this 2369 BC are 49 X 49 jubiles to Jesus' sacrifice.
Jacob was 70 when he left Haran = 2368 BC = when Jacob dreamed he saw a ladder from earth to Heaven. Jacob lived to be 147 years old. Then Jacob lived 2 X 38.5 more years from 70 to 147 years. Jesus lived 38.5 years from September 12, 7 BC to April 3, 33 AD. Or 38 years and 200 days.
2 X 7000 + 12 X 7 + 1 = 14,085 days of Jesus' life from September 12, 7 BC to April 3, 33 AD. 38.5 years is half of 77 years.
"the sun had set" may refer to a sun miracle to point to this date the second week of the first month = the Passover = from Adam 4568 BC = 4600 years, and from 2368 BC = 2400 years, to Jesus' sacrifice.
"And he went out from him rejoicing.. in the first week of the forty-third jubile in its second year, which is the year Abraham died, Isaac and Ishmael came.."
The Dead Sea Scrolls Study Edition, volume 1. p.469. 4Q219.
Hebrews 11:8 "By faith Abraham, when he was called to go out into a place which he should after receive for an inheritance, obeyed; and he went out, not knowing whither he went.
11:9 By faith he sojourned in the land of promise, as in a strange country, dwelling in tabernacles with Isaac and Jacob, the heirs with him of the same promise:"
Genesis 35:27 "And Jacob came unto Isaac his father unto Mamre, unto the city of Arbah, which is Hebron, where Abraham and Isaac sojourned.
35:28 And the days of Isaac were an hundred and fourscore years."
Joseph was 17 when his grandfather Isaac was 180 years old. Isaac was 69 when he had Jacob, not 60. Thus, Jacob was six, not 15, when Abraham died. Thus, Jacob was 70 when he dreamed of the ladder to Heaven, the same 69 years his father Isaac was when Jacob was born.
From 2345 BC, Joseph at 17 in 2328 BC - seven years to 2322 BC = the 50 year jubile to Jesus speaking from Isaiah 61 in Luke 4, seven years to 2315 BC = Joseph made governor over Egypt and seven years of plenty, seven more years is 2308 BC and the seven years of famine begin, the second year 2307 BC Jacob and Joseph's brothers enter Egypt.
Thus, from Adam in 4568 BC = year 800 Armenian Sothis from its beginning in 5368 BC, 43 X 49 years = 2107 years, then 29 more years to Abraham's death in 2432 BC.
"And it came to pass in the first week in the forty-fourth jubilee, in the second year, that is, in the year in which Abraham died.."
Ancient Book of Jubilees. p. 84.
Should be "fourth" week forty-fourth jubile.
4 weeks of years, second year. Then 4 X 7 years to the second year = 28 + 1 years = 29 years to 2432 BC. This 2432 BC is even 50 year jubiles to the Exodus March 30, 1281 BC.
From 4668 BC to 2432 BC = 2236 years. 45 X 49 + 31(4X7+2=30) = 2236 years.
There was a transition from the Armenian sothis calendar to the Egyptian sothis calendar.
Terah died in the Egyptian calendar year 205, from 2737 BC = 2532 BC.
X32 BC = 37 years from X69 BC. X68 BC = 100's years to Jesus' sacrifice. The death of Abraham's father Terah in 2532 BC, the death of Abraham in 2432 BC, points to Jesus' life of 38 years and his sacrifice April 3, 33 AD. The birth of Abraham October 18, 2607 BC points to the birth of Jesus September 12, 7 BC.
From the Dead Sea Scrolls:
"and she gave birth to a son for him in the ninth jubile, in the first week in the third year of this week. In the fourth week of this jubile She gave birth for a son for him, in the fifth week in the fourth year of the Jubile, and called his name Enoch. He was the first. He wrote down in a book the signs of the sky, according to the order of their months, so that the sons of man would know the cycles of the years, according to the orders of all their months. He was the first to write a testimony, and he testified to the sons of men the generations of the earth. The weeks of the Jubiles. The first was buried in the ground. And he was seventy years short of one thousand, for a thousand years are one day in the testimony of heaven. Therefore it is written about the tree of knowlege. For in the day you eat from it you shall die.
Therefore he did not complete the years of that day, because he died during it. At the conclusion of this Jubile.
"And with Terah his father in Haran for two weeks of years. And in the sixth week in its fifth year Abraham sat down during the night of the first day of the seventh month to observe the stars from the evening to the morning to see what would be the nature of the year in relation to the rains. And it happened that while he was sitting alone and observing, a voice came to his heart and said "All the signs....And it happened in the seventh year of the sixth week he spoke with his father and told him that he was leaving Haran to go to the land of Canaan, to see it and he would return to him. And Terah his father said to him "Go in peace. May the eternal God make your way smooth, and may YHWH be with you and protect you from all evil and may no son of man have power over you to do you evil.'
The Dead Sea Scrolls, Frag 1 -9. 11QJub
Two weeks of years back from Abraham at 75 in 2532 BC is 2545 BC = 38 years, the life time of Jesus, to the birth of Isaac in 2507 BC when Abraham was 100.
Back from Abraham, born in Ur in 2607 BC, ahead 75 years of age when Abraham left Haran, back 49 years = sixth week seventh year when Abraham and his father entered Haran = 2581 BC; to the Exodus March 30, 1281 BC = 1300 years. From the Exodus Friday, March 30, 1281 BC to Jesus' sacrifice Friday, April 3, 33 AD are 1313 years.
Adam died in year 931 = 19 X 49 jubiles = 70 years to 1000. There were three 70 year gaps.
Enoch born in the 19th jubile, not the ninth jubile, fourth week, fourth day = 931 + 28 + 3 to Adam from year 800 from 5368 = 4568 BC = Enoch born in year 300 from 3907 BC in 3607 BC = 3600 year to the birth of Jesus in 7 BC. The seventh month = Jesus' birth about September 12, 7 BC.
931 + 28 + 3 = 962 years, almost the 969 years of Methuselah.
If there are 21 x 49 year jubiles instead of 19 jubiles, then from Adam in year 4668 BC = 700 years from 5368 BC; 21 X 49 years = 1029 years + 28 years + 3 years = 1060 years. 4668 BC - 1060 years = 3608 BC = the birth of Enoch = 3600 years to Jesus' birth in 7 BC.
Nevertheless, 19 X 49 instead of 9 X 49 makes sense because the digit 10 was omitted.
The fifth week, the fourth year = 35 + 4 = 39 years = the life of Jesus.
Genesis 12:4 "So Abram departed, as the LORD had spoken unto him; and Lot went with him: and Abram was seventy and five years old when he departed out of Haran."
Again, Abraham at 75 years old would be 2532 BC = the death of his father Terah.
Abraham at 75 would be approximately 2 X 38 years, two times the life of Jesus.
From the Greek Septuagint:
Genesis 11:13 "And Arphaxad lived after he had begotten Cainan, four hundred years, and begot sons and daughters, and died. And Cainan lived an hundred and thirty years and begat Sala; and Canaan lived after he had begotten Sala, three hundred and thirty years, and begot sons and daughters, and died.
11:14 And Sala lived an hundred and thirty years, and begot Heber.
11:15 And Sala lived after he had begotten Heber, three hundred and thirty years, and begot sons and daughters, and died.
11:16 And Heber lived an hundred and thirty-four years, and begat Phaleg.
11:17 And Heber lived after he had begotten Phaleg two hundred and seventy years, and begat sons and daughters, and died.
11:18 And Phaleg lived a nundred and thirty years, and begat Ragau.
11:19 And Phaleg lived after he had begotten Ragau, two hundred and nine years."
From the Hebrew Old Testament:
Genesis 11:10 "These are the generations of Shem: Shem was an hundred years old, and begat Arphaxad two years after the flood:
11:11 And Shem lived after he begat Arphaxad five hundred years, and begat sons and daughters.
11:12 And Arphaxad lived five and thirty years, and begat Salah:
11:13 And Arphaxad lived after he begat Salah four hundred and three years, and begat sons and daughters.
11:14 And Salah lived thirty years, and begat Eber:
11:15 And Salah lived after he begat Eber four hundred and three years, and begat sons and daughters.
11:16 And Eber lived four and thirty years, and begat Peleg:
11:17 And Eber lived after he begat Peleg four hundred and thirty years, and begat sons and daughters.
11:18 And Peleg lived thirty years, and begat Reu:
11:19 And Peleg lived after he begat Reu two hundred and nine years, and begat sons and daughters."
Thus, before Abraham was born in 2607 BC in Ur, God's people were using the Egyptian sothis calendar.
Thus, from Noah's flood in 3307 BC and Arphaxad in the 2d year, 3305 BC, to Abraham born 2607 BC are 700 years. 33 year generations = 21 generations from Arphaxad to Abraham.
"In the 29th jubilee, in the first week, in the beginning thereof Arpachshad took a wife..and he found a writing which former generations carved in the rock, and he read what was thereon, and he transcribed it and sinned owing to it; for it contained the teachings of the Watchers in accordance in which they used to observe the omens of the sun and moon and stars in all the signs of heaven."
Ancient Book of Jubilees, by Ken Johnson. p.42.
From Adam in 4668 BC to Jesus in 7 BC are 144 generations of 32 years. 4661 / 144 = 32.
The Egyptian sothis calendar, a new sothis cycle, in 2737 BC.
From Shem 500 years after the flood in 3307 BC is 2807 BC; 70 more years to the Egyptian sothis 2737 BC.
Shem: H8064 שָׁמֶה שָׁמַיִם shâmayim shâmeh shaw-mah'-yim, shaw-meh' The second form being dual of an unused singular; from an unused root meaning to be lofty; the sky (as aloft; the dual perhaps alluding to the visible arch in which the clouds move, as well as to the higher ether where the celestial bodies revolve): - air, X astrologer, heaven (-s).
From the Greek Septuagint Genesis 11:13 Canaan lived after..330 years. Year 1330 from 4198 BC = 2868 BC. "And Canaan lived 130 years" From this 2868 BC to the Egyptian sothis 2737 BC are 131 years.
The Armenian sothis calendar, a new cycle 3907 BC and 2447 BC.
From the end of the Egyptian sothis cycy in 2737 BC to the end of the Armenian sothis cycle in 2447 BC = 290 years.
From Noah's flood in 3307 BC less 430 years less 430 years = 2447 BC = the end of the Armenian sothis cycle from 3907 BC.
The Sojourn into Egypt in the Egyptian sothis year 430 from 2737 BC = 2307 BC = 2300 years to Jesus' birth September 12, 7 BC.
The Greek Septuagint gives Phaleg 270 years. Both the Greek and the Hebrew give Reu 209 years. So the 290 years could be in this 270 years, or most likely this 209 years be actually 290 years = the gap between the two calendars.
Genesis 10:25 "And unto Eber were born two sons: the name of one was Peleg; for in his days was the earth divided; and his brother's name was Joktan."
Pheleg given 270 years in the Greek Septuagint, and Pheleg given 209 years in the Hebrew, "in his days was the earth divided" may equal was the calendar divided from the Armenian to the Egyptian. And the 270 or 209 years be 290 years = the correction to the new Egyptian calendar.
By the time of Terah who died in the Egyptian sothis year 205; from 2737 BC= 2532 BC, Egyptian dates are used. Arphaxad and Selah lived to year 403 = 1403 years from 4198 BC. One more generation of 30 years to the 1430 year. Even after Pheleg 430 years = 1430 year Egyptian sothis = 2768 BC; 4198 BC - 1430 years = the division after Pheleg.. Then one more generation of thirty years to year 1460 then end of the Egyptian sothis cycle 2737 BC.
Pheleg 30, Reu 32, Serug 30, Nahor 29 = 121 years = Nahor 119 years, from 2737 BC - 119 years = 2618 BC = 86 years to Terah's death in year 205, 2532 BC.
"lived after" may be a correction to the years after the Egyptian calendar ended in 2737 BC 290 years to when the Armenian calendar ended 2447 BC, a correction to the new Egyptian system in those years before 2737 BC. Isaac would be 60 years old in 2447 BC.
Or this 430 years of Eber in Hebrew Genesis 11:17 less 134 years of Heber in Greek Genesis 11:16 = 296 years - completing the transition from the Armenian sothis calendar to the Egyptian sothis calendar as God's people moved closer to Egypt.
Or this 430 years after Eber be Egyptian year 1430 from 4198 BC to 2768 BC, and Peleg lived 30 more years to the end of the Egyptian calendar 2737 BC. There are 1460 years to a sothis cycle.
The 430th year in Exodus was the sojourn from sothis year 430 from this 2737 BC = 2307 BC. This 430 years of Eber also a sothis date, but this time 1000 and 430 years, 1430 Egyptian sothis from 4198 BC = 2767 BC = 2800 years to Jesus' sacrifice April 3, 33 AD.
Thus, the year 430 BC = 1430 years to 2767 BC pointing to Jesus' sacrifice. And the Exodus the same date, the full moon, Sunday, April 3, 2307 BC from the Sojourn into Egypt in year 430, 2307 BC = 2300 years to Jesus' birth, was the end of the calendar of 1456 years the same date = time of year, as April1 is March 30, 1281 BC; point also to Jesus' sacrifice at the Passover. 430 year dates to Jesus' birth and to Jesus' sacrifice.
The Egyptian calendar backed up one year every four years from the first appearing of Sirius at 4:15 AM July 16. Thus, new years had backed up 430 / 4 = 107 years from July 16 = April 1 in this 2307 BC from 2737 BC; and also the end of the sothis cycle 1456 years (1460 years) one day early, on the same date as April 1; is March 30, 1281 BC = the selfsame day Israel entered Egypt as Israel left Egypt.
Sirius rose before the sun on July 16, 1281 BC at 4 AM Cairo Egypt. Sirius rose before the sun on July 16, 1281 BC at 4:30 AM at the southern Caspian Sea = a 30 minutes difference and a seven day difference.
On July 11, 1281 BC Sirius rose before the sun on 4:27 AM Cairo Egypt and on the Armenian south Caspian Sea 4:45 AM = again about a 20 minute difference.
July 16, 1281 BC Sirius rose at 3:52 AM at Cairo. July 16, 2737 BC Sirius rose at 3:46 AM at Cairo. July 16, 4197 BC Sirius rose at 3:46 AM at Cairo. July 16, 4712 BC Sirius rose at 3:52 AM at Cairo.
4712 BC is as far back as the Julian calendar will go. Thus, you can see the appearing of Sirius on July 16 goes back many thousands of years, perhaps even to 8000 BC.
The Egyptian new sothis cycle on July 16, 4197 BC was on a full moon.
Thus, both the Egyptian Sothis and the Armenian Sothis, Sirius, calendars are similar.
From the Greek Septuagint:
Genesis 11:25"And Nachor lived after he had begotten Tharrha, an hundred and twenty-five years, and begat sons and daughters."
From the Hebrew:
Genesis 11:25 "And Nahor lived after he begat Terah an hundred and nineteen years, and begat sons and daughters."
Counting 125 years from the Egyptian sothis cycle 2737 BC is 2612 BC. Counting 49 year jubiles is this 2612 BC. The year the shadow from the sundial rose one cubit and lengthened ten cubits in China 312 BC - possibly the death of Alexander, 2300 years later = after this 2612 BC, was also a 49 year jubile. Lamech died in 3312 BC, year 595 from 3907 BC = 3000 years to 312 BC, a 49 year jubile to Jesus' sacrifice. Also in 360 BC a 49 year jubile the shadow of the sun: "Some ground there suddenly became longer by 100 cubits and more, and higher by a cubit and a half."
Counting 119 years from the Egyptian sothis cycle 2737 BC is 2618 BC. Counting 50 year jubiles, 53 X 50 years, to Herod rebuilding the temple in 18 BC = 49 more years to Jesus' sacrifice, April 3, 33 AD.
From Noah's flood in 3307 BC, 777 years back to 4084 BC. 4084 BC + 32 years to Jesus' sacrifice April 3, 33 AD = 4116 years. 4116 / 49 = 84. Thus, 84 X 49 = 4084 BC = 777 years back from Noah's flood.
Genesis 11:25 "And Nahor lived after he begat Terah an hundred and nineteen years, and begat sons and daughters."
Or, counting 119 years from the Egyptian sothis cycle 2737 BC is 2618 BC. From 2618 BC, counting 50 year cycles to Jesus' sacrifice April 3, 33 AD.
There are many dates and omens ending in 32 BC. Abraham's father Terah died in year 205 from 2737 BC = 2532 BC. Abraham died at 175 years from his birth in 2607 BC in 2432 BC. From Isaac's birth in 2507 BC 38 years to 2469 BC, 38 more years to 2432 BC. The sun stood still for ten days in 1832 BC. The sun stood still for three days in 1732 BC. Tsoo-Keah became emperor in 1332 BC. K'ang became emperor in 1132 BC after Ching had been emperor for 37 years from 1168 BC.
Josiah's 18th year, he was eight when he became King, wherein he held a great Passover, may be his tenth year of reign = 632 BC.
However, Josiah's 18th year should be his 18th year of reign in 626 BC.
2 Chronicles 35:19 "In the eighteenth year of the reign of Josiah was this Passover kept."
"In his (emperor Seang) 24th year (from 650 BC = 626 BC), duke Wan of Tsin died. In his 25th year was kea-woo the first year of Hwan, the duke Sean of Tsin."
"In his (King K'ing) 6th year (612 BC) a comet entered the Great Bear (the Northern Bushel); and the king died."
The Chinese Classics. p.164.
Manasseh died in 645 BC, two more years of Aman, then from 643 BC are 31 years of Josiah to 612 BC, eleven years of Jehoiakim to 601 BC, twelve years of Zedekiah to 591 BC.
There was a broom star = comet seen in 632 BC in China. There may be a connection between the comet and a sun miracle in 632 BC.
Halley's comet has a 77 year orbit. Back from Halley's comet in 12 BC to 632 BC = 620 years. 8 X 77 years = 616 BC = only a 4 year difference.
From the comet, Wu tended his sprear towards the comet, in emperor Wu's first year in 1174 BC back from 632 BC = 542 years. 7 X 77 = 539 years = only a 3 year difference.
Then the pattern of years ending in X32 BC seems to be 38 years from X69 BC that equals even 100's of years to Jesus' sacrifice April 3, 33 AD. From dates ending in X07 BC in even 100's of years to Jesus' birth, are 38 years to X69 BC. From years ending in X45 BC are 38 years to years ending in X07 BC such as darkness on the Passover on the ides of March 15, 45 BC = the omen to kill Julius Caesar.
This great Passover of Josiah in his 18th year, possibly 632 BC, may point to Jesus' sacrifice.
Nevertheless, from Josiah's first year in 643 BC to his 18th year of reign, there be a great Passover, in 626 BC and the year of his death in 612 BC when he was 39 years old = Jesus' age of 38.5 years, when he went to the cross.
"Ezekiel 1:1 "Now it came to pass in the thirtieth year, in the fourth month, in the fifth day of the month, as I was among the captives by the river of Chebar, that the heavens were opened, and I saw visions of God."
612 BC was the 30th year of the 50 year jubile from Joshua's long day August 10, 1241 BC.
The 18th year of Josiah's life would be 633 BC. The 18th year of Josiah's reign would be 626 BC.
The 18th year of emperor Ching from 1168 BC would be 1150 BC.
Likewise, King Ching in China also became King when he was eight years old, and probably there was a sun miracle in 1168 BC on the Passover, and 18 years later there was a sun miracle of phoenixes, in the spring, also on the Passover.
Note: "When King Woo died (1168 BC), KIng Ching was still young; and Tan, Duke of Chow, acted as regent for 7 years."
The Chinese Classics, p.147.
"In his 16th year (from 650 BC = 634 BC), yih-yew, the first year of duke Wan of Tsin, Tsin put Tsze-yu to death."
The Chinese Classics, p.163.
Thus, perhaps a sun miracle in this 634 BC that was the omen to kill duke Tsze-yu.
Adam was born in year 700 and died in year 930. 19 X 49 = 931. Then at Adam's death was added 7 and 6 years. So counting from 5372 BC + 7 + 6 = 49 year jubiles to Jesus' sacrifice, April 3, 33 AD. Likewise, Adam's death in year 930 points to Jesus' sacrifice. Then, 4489 BC is 49 years before year 930. Thus, the 49 year jubile even to the death of Abraham point to the death of Adam and Jesus' sacrifice.
Abraham died 175 years after 2607 BC in 2432 BC = 38 years after 2469 BC = the 38 years of Jesus' life. 2468 BC was 2500 years to Jesus' sacrifice.
From 4672 BC began both the 49 year jubile and 50 year jubile. 49 year jubiles to Jesus' sacrifice April 3, 33 AD. 50 year jubiles to the beginning of Jesus' ministry, September 9, 29 AD or October 7, 29 AD.
50 year jubiles from 4672 BC = 44 X 50 + 40 years. "the sixth year of the seventh week" may be 7th week = 6 X 7 = 42, but sixth year = one year less than seven, 41 years. Then, 44 X 50 + 41 from 4672 BC = 2432 BC.
Abraham born in 2607 BC - 175 years of Abraham's life to 2432 BC.
Micah 7:20 "Thou wilt perform the truth to Jacob, and the mercy to Abraham, which thou hast sworn unto our fathers from the days of old."
Thus, Abraham born in 2607 BC and not 1900 BC.
This important date, Friday, March 30, 1281 BC at the end of the Egyptian sothis cycle from 2737 BC 1456 years to 1281 BC, and the day March 30 is like April 1, 2307 BC, the 430th year from 2737 BC, new years back 430 / 4 = back 107 days from new years = April 1, 2307 BC, the first appearing of Sirius before dawn, July 16.
This Friday April 1, 2307 BC and this full moon = Passover April 3, 2307 BC and this full moon = Passover March 30, 1281 BC point to Jesus' sacrifice, April 3, 33 AD.
Exodus 12:40 "Now the sojourning of the children of Israel, who dwelt in Egypt, was four hundred and thirty years.
12:41 And it came to pass at the end of the four hundred and thirty years, even the selfsame day it came to pass, that all the hosts of the LORD went out from the land of Egypt."
Exodus 12:51 "And it came to pass the selfsame day, that the LORD did bring the children of Israel out of the land of Egypt by their armies."
"The term "Pharaoh", from the Egyptian per-aa meaning "great house", was not used before the reign of Akhetaten."
"The first chapter of Exodus mentions "the store cities of Pithon and Rameses." These can be identified as the temple of Atum (Per Anum) and Piramesse, the city and temple built for Rameses II. This with the mention of Israel in the reign of his son Merneptah has suggested that Rameses oppressed the Hebrews, and that they escaped during the reign of Merneptah."
"There is a problem, though. Inscriptions show that all building work stopped in Rameses' year 30, when he celebrated his first jubilee. This means that the workers would have been unemployed for 37 years prior to Rameses' death; and that they then demanded freedom from Merneptah, survived the plagues, raced across Sinai in the north, then formed Israel, only to be "devastated " in his year 5. While convenient, this is impossible timing."
Egypt, Land and lives of the Pharaohs Revealed. Exodus. p.375
Yet, this is exactly what happened. Israel was in slavery under Ramses II.
Exodus 2:23 "And it came to pass in process of time, that the king of Egypt died: and the children of Israel sighed by reason of the bondage, and they cried, and their cry came up unto God by reason of the bondage.
2:24 And God heard their groaning, and God remembered his covenant with Abraham, with Isaac, and with Jacob."
Ramses II was this king of Egypt that died. His son Merneptah was the Pharaoh of the Exodus 10 years later, March 30, 1281 BC.
Herodotus, a Greek historian, wrote that the Egyptian priests reported:
"Thus, the whole number of years [of early Egyptian history] is 341 Pharaohs, in which entire space, they said, no god had ever appeared in a human form; nothing of this kind had happened either under the former or under the later Egyptian kings. The sun, however, had within this period of time, on four several occasions, moved from his wonted course, twice rising where he now sets, and twice setting where he now rises. Egypt was in no degree affected by these changes; the productions of the land, and of the river, remained the same; nor was there anything unusual in the diseases or the deaths."
The History of Herodotus, chapter 2
The sun rising in the west and setting in the east may be compared to changing sprinklers. If you move the sprinkler back and forth instead of starting again from the beginning, the net effect is a loss in coverage of one sixth. Likewise, the loss in the coverage of sunlight would also be one sixth.

The fortieth year eleventh month when Moses died should have been the eleventh month November 26, 1242 BC from the first month 14th day, Friday, March 30, 1281 BC. Then Miriam, Aaron and Moses died on the first day of the week as well as the first day of the lunar month. Miriam died Sunday, the first day of the week, the first day of the first month, February 5, 1242 BC. Aaron died Sunday, the first day of the week, the first day of the fifth month, June 2, 1242 BC. Moses died, the first day of the week, the first day of the eleventh month, November 26, 1242 BC.
The 49 year jubile from 5358 BC to Jesus' sacrifice April 3, 33 AD is on 1242 BC. The 50th year in 1241 BC and Joshua's long day.
From Aaron's death in June 2, 1242 BC to Moses' death in November 26, 1282 BC are 177 days that equal a half orbit. The sun may move to the other side of earth, and earth in a reverse orbit, for a long or short day June 2, 1242 BC and back for a long or short day, November 26, 1282 BC, and earth flow out of a reverse orbit of the sun.
Then Friday, January 26, 1241 BC was the first day of Nissan. Sunday, February 4, 1241 BC was the 10th day when Israel crossed Jordan.
David in 1078 BC:
1 Chronicles 12:15 "These are they that went over Jordan in the first month, when it had overflown all his banks; and they put to flight all them of the valleys, both toward the east, and toward the west.
12:16 And there came of the children of Benjamin and Judah to the hold unto David."
Acts 7:23 "But when he was well-nigh forty years old, it came into his heart to visit his brethren the children of Israel."
Exodus 4:1 "And Moses answered and said, But, behold, they will not believe me, nor hearken unto my voice: for they will say, The LORD hath not appeared unto thee.
4:2 And the LORD said unto him, What is that in thine hand? And he said, A rod.
4:3 And he said, Cast it on the ground. And he cast it on the ground, and it became a serpent; and Moses fled from before it.
4:4 And the LORD said unto Moses, Put forth thine hand, and take it by the tail. And he put forth his hand, and caught it, and it became a rod in his hand:"
Here you can see an Ogopogo "stick". The mouth at the bottom is open. You can see an eye, nostrils, and teeth:
Again you can see an Ogopogo "stick" in the creek. Note the white eye in the second picture:
"If you spend your life looking in vain for the Loch Ness Monster, stalking the lake with a camera, sounding it with sonar..and yet find nothing, what is the more sensible view: to conclude provisionally that the monster simply isn't there, or to throw up your hands and say, "It might be there; I'm not sure"? Most people would give the first response - unless they're talking about God."
Faith vs. FACT.p.95
"unless you are talking about God" God is there, there is no doubt God is there. To move the sun around the earth - only God could do that. God's Spirit is in his people today = the real proof God is there.
To spend your life looking for Ogopogo - taking many photos of Ogopogo has been very rewarding.
You can see many of my photos of Ogopogo - Stories of Ogopogo and ask me for more photos if you like. The Ogopogo can fly.
Evidence For Massive Serpent In BC Interior A 45 minute documentary.
Possible Ogopogo sighting on Okanagan Lake You can see the horns three feet apart. The E-goat has two horns, but probably refers to a sun angel.
Isaiah 14:29 "Rejoice not thou, whole Palestina, because the rod of him that smote thee is broken: for out of the serpent's root shall come forth a cockatrice, and his fruit shall be a fiery flying serpent."
Isaiah 30:6 "The burden of the beasts of the south: into the land of trouble and anguish, from whence come the young and old lion, the viper and fiery flying serpent, they will carry their riches upon the shoulders of young asses, and their treasures upon the bunches of camels, to a people that shall not profit them."
Job 41:1 "Canst thou draw out leviathan with an hook? or his tongue with a cord which thou lettest down?"
Job 41:30 "Sharp stones are under him: he spreadeth sharp pointed things upon the mire."
Psalm 74:14 "Thou brakest the heads of leviathan in pieces, and gavest him to be meat to the people inhabiting the wilderness."
Psalm 104:26 "There go the ships: there is that leviathan, whom thou hast made to play therein."
Isaiah 27:1 "In that day the LORD with his sore and great and strong sword shall punish leviathan the piercing serpent, even leviathan that crooked serpent; and he shall slay the dragon that is in the sea."
"Did a Kelowna man capture Ogopogo on video?" Three feet wide and one hundred feet long.
Ogopogo 100 feet long and more than a metre around is huge. Both Leviathan and Ogopogo appear as dinosaurs. Ogopogo being a surviving Stethacantus/Nosaurus.
After much search there is much supporting evidence of this model of sun miracles.
Thus, science and religion are not incompatible.
Acts 7:23 "And when he was full forty years old, it came into his heart to visit his brethren the children of Israel."
Thus, Moses was about 39 years old in 1322 BC, being born in 1361 BC. This was about the same age as Jesus, 38 1/2 years old when he was crucified in 33 AD. Double 38 1/2 = 77 years. 50 year cycles from this date to 29 AD when Jesus began his ministry - no year 0.
Exodus 7:7 "And Moses was fourscore years old, and Aaron fourscore and three years old, when they spake unto Pharaoh."
Thus, Moses was 80 years old at the Exodus.
Deuteronomy 34:7 "And Moses was an hundred and twenty years old when he died: his eye was not dim, nor his natural force abated."
Thus, Moses died at 120 years old about November 26, 1242 BC = the next year was 1241 BC and Joshua's long day, August 10, 1241 BC.
Deuteromomy 25:3 "Forty stripes he may give him, and not exceed: lest, if he should exceed, and beat him above these with many stripes, then thy brother should seem vile unto thee."
2 Corinthians 11:24 "Of the Jews five times received I forty stripes save one."
John 19:1 "Then Pilate therefore took Jesus, and scourged him."
1 Peter 2:24 "Who his own self bare our sins in his own body on the tree, that we, being dead to sins, should live unto righteousness: by whose stripes ye were healed."
Jesus lived to be thirty eight and a half. There were to be 39 stripes = forty save one.
Then the manna ceased to fall that Friday, February 9, 1241 BC when there was to be twice as much, and instead there was none. Thursday, February 8, 1241 BC was the Passover. Sunday, February 11, 1241 BC, Joshua circled Jericho once. Saturday, February 17, 1241 BC, Joshua circled Jericho seven times and conquered Jericho, and the walls fell down flat.
Then the lunar eclipse September 24, 1205 BC that was counted as in king Wan's 35th year from his first year February 5, 1239 BC - one year after the battle of Merom. There may have been a sun miracle Friday, May 9, 1206 BC on the 13th day of the first lunar month of spring in king Wan's 35th year. The full moon, when a naturally occurring lunar eclipse can happen, was one day later on May 10, 1206 BC.
Thus, the sun miracle both on lunar day 13 and day 13 of cycle 60, May 9, 1206 BC. The year may have been counted from the new moon April 25, 1206 BC. The Chinese usually counted the beginning of the year in spring. April 1, 1206 BC was the vernal equinox. The 13th day of the lunar month thus seemed a day early for a lunar eclipse and thus was interpreted as a sign by king Wan of his appointment of heaven.
The birthday of the dragon was the 13th day of the sixth month in China. New years began in September and in February. Solar eclipses were described by the dragon eating the sun. Some records of solar eclipses were not solar eclipses. The Chinese may have seen an angel like a dragon move and or cover the sun. The sun was darkened at the fall of Jerusalem September 7, 591 BC on the seven day moon. This was not a solar eclipse because a solar eclipse can only occurr on the new moon. Then an angel must have moved and covered the sun that day, that may be likened to the dragon eating the sun.
Thus, there must have been a sun miracle in this 1205 BC, September 24, day 13 of cycle 60, that king Wan spoke so adamantly about, that he was put in prison. 1207 BC is 1200 years to Jesus' birth. 1205 BC is 1200 years 5 BC. Two years after Jesus was born, again in September, the wise men came before the sun returned = Arcturus 90° above at midnight.
Scientists may chuckle at the fear the Chinese and others felt when there was a total solar eclipse.
Similarly, scientists may chuckle that they can fool people into believing there is no God and no way for these sun miracles.
Many people feel because the sun is the axis for the solar system, that the sun cannot move.
God is God, He can move the sun. All these records point to God moving the sun, and then moving the sun back without a trace.
Hebrews 11:3 "Through faith we understand that the worlds were framed by the word of God, so that things which are seen were not made of things which do appear."
Scientists can only account for 4% of the universe. The rest is in dark matter and dark energy - dark because we do not know what it is.
Often, the emperor in China was assassinated out of fear of naturally occurring lunar and solar eclipses.
"The name by which God was designated was the Ruler, and the Supreme Ruler, denoting emphatically His personality, supremacy, and unity. We find it constantly interchanged with the term Heaven, by which the ideas of supremacy and unity are equally conveyed, while that of personality is only indicated vaguely, and by association of the mind. By God kings were supposed to reign, and princes decree Justice."
The Chinese Classics, The Ancient Empire of China, p.193.
However, many Chinese emperors were killed on years ending in X68 = 100's of years to Jesus' sacrifice April 3, 33 and from X07 BC 100's of years to Jesus' birth September 12, 7 BC = 100 years. The frequency of new emperors on these dates and Bible dates must mean there were sun miracles the Chinese took as omens.
Just looking at the pages of the Chinese Classics, the last several hundred years of the Bamboo Books - the emperor came to the throne on a year ending X67 BC or X68 BC, or a year ending X07 BC.
New emperors on these dates can only be because of a sun miracle that the Chinese took as an omen to change emperors.
"The name by which God was designated was the Ruler, and the Supreme Ruler, denoting His personality, supremacy and unity are equally conveyed, while that of personality is only indicated vaguely and by association of the mind. By God kings were supposed to reign, and princes were required to decree justice..He raises one to the throne and puts down another. Obedience is sure to receive His blessing; disobedience with His curse...
The Chinese Classics. p.193.
When in China in 2007, the Chinese often showed me pictures of their phoenix, they were proud of their phoenix.To see the phoenix brought good luck. And this thousands of years after the phoenixes appeared to point people to Jesus in Old Testament days.
The sun having moved on the 17th day of the seventh Hebrew month, September 12, 7 BC should return two years later, September 12, 5 BC on the 13th day of the lunar month. September 15 was the full moon, the 14th day of the Hebrew lunar month.
God must have used these dates to move the sun to point to his Son. The whole Bible points to nothing other than Jesus. Nothing matters but Salvation.
The keatze day, day one of cycle sixty, could have been a sun miracle to point to two years after Jesus' birth Saturday, September 12, 7 BC, thus September 12, 5 BC.
September 12, 5 BC was a day one of cycle 60 from January 26, 2636 BC, a keatze day. A sun miracle on the 17th lunar day of the seventh Hebrew month, be on September 21, 1207 BC. The Chinese started their autumn in August and their calendar was lunar. Thus, September could have been their last month of autumn.
Then just like the sun miracle at the same time as the lunar eclipse in September 15, 5 BC when the sun moved back two years after Jesus' birth. If the sun returned at the lunar eclipse of September 15, 5 BC, the day of 60 would be day three.
Thus, the difference of 2 days from the 17th day of the 7th month, Satuday, September 21, 1207 BC to September 24, 1205 BC, the day before the seven days of the feast of tabernacles on the 15th day; from Jesus' birth September 13, 7 BC, to the lunar eclipse September 15, 5 BC. Also, the September 21 date in 1207 BC would equal a September 13 date in 7 BC because the autumn equinox in 1207 BC was October 1 and the autumn equinox in 7 BC was September 22.
Then Jesus' crucifixion be the 490th year from the wall of Jerusalem being complete in 458 BC, April 3, 33 AD. And also be from the cycle of 49 years from 1242 BC unbroken. Then Jesus' ministry from his reading in Luke 4 to begin the jubile in the 50th year on Yom Kippur, Friday, September 9, 29 AD, or rather Friday, October 7, 29 AD, be three and a half years to Jesus' crucifixion, April 3, 33 AD.
Leviticus 25:29 "And if a man sell a dwelling house in a walled city, then he may redeem it within a whole year after it is sold; within a full year may he redeem it.
25:30 And if it be not redeemed within the space of a full year, then the house that is in the walled city shall be established for ever to him that bought it throughout his generations: it shall not go out in the jubile."
From when Herod began to rebuild the Temple in 18 BC was 49 years to Jesus' sacrifice, April 3, 33 AD = this same 49 year jubile.
Tacitus recorded the phoenix appeared in Egypt in 34 AD. The appearing of the phoenix mean the phoenix flew to the sun and moved the sun to the other side of the earth. This appearing of the phoenix may be when the sun bowed down suddenly at noon when Jesus was crucified April 3, 33 AD. Or the sun moved that Friday night and or that Sunday morning. Thus, the record be from 33 AD.
Luke 4:25 "But I tell you of a truth, many widows were in Israel in the days of Elias, when the heaven was shut up three years and six months, when great famine was throughout all the land;"
Luke 4:28 "And all they in the synagogue, when they heard these things, were filled with wrath,
4:29 And rose up, and thrust him out of the city, and led him unto the brow of the hill whereon their city was built, that they might cast him down headlong.
4:30 But he passing through the midst of them went his way,"
Here you can see this steep brow of the hill outside of Nazareth:
Leviticus 16:21 "And Aaron shall lay both his hands upon the head of the live goat, and confess over him all the iniquities of the children of Israel, and all their transgressions in all their sins, putting them upon the head of the goat, and shall send him away by the hand of a fit man into the wilderness."
Josephus wrote that the man should cast the goat down a steep hill. This scape goat was to be offered on this Yom Kippur = the same day Jesus fulfilled this day of Atonement when he read Isaiah 61.
Leviticus 16:21 "And Aaron shall lay both his hands upon the head of the live goat, and confess over him all the iniquities of the children of Israel, and all their transgressions in all their sins, putting them upon the head of the goat, and shall send him away by the hand of a fit man into the wilderness:"
Jesus quoted Isaiah 61 on Yom Kippur, the 10th day of the seventh Hebrew month = Friday, September 9, 29 AD or October 7, 29 AD, on the jubile year, 50th year. The 50th year from Joshua's conquest in 1241 BC to the fall of Jerusalem in 591 BC. Then 70 years of captivity to 521 BC. Then 50 year jubiles to September 9, 29 AD or October 7, 29 AD.
Ezra 1:2 "Thus saith Cyrus king of Persia, The LORD God of heaven hath given me all the kingdoms of the earth; and he hath charged me to build him an house at Jerusalem, which is in Judah."
Cyrus became King of Babylon not 539 BC but 527 BC. Cyrus became king of Persia not 559 BC but 547 BC. Thus these dates should be 13 years more recent Cyrus became King of Babylon in 526 BC or even in 523 BC. Thus, the 70 years captivity from 591 BC to 521 BC; a few years after 526 BC or 523 BC.
Daniel born in 627 BC/ 620 BC would be 100 years old when Cyrus became King of Babylon in 527 BC. That is 12 years more recent than in 539 BC.
The dates for the reign of Cyrus and Darius must be moved forward 12 years.
Cyrus was King of the Achaemenind Empire and King of Persia, not in 559 BC but in 547 BC.
Cyrus was King of Media, not in 549 BC but in 536 BC.
Cyrus was King of Lydia not in 547 BC but in 534 BC.
Cyrus was King of Babylon not in 539 BC but in 526 BC.
From 526 BC 210 years to Alexander the Great in 326 BC.
Cyrus was King of Babylon not 539 BC to 530 BC; should be Cyrus was King of Babylon nine years from 527 BC to 518 BC. Thus, there was an attempt to build the Temple in Jerusalem in 521 BC, in the year six, three years before Cyrus died in 518 BC. Thus, Cyrus made the decree to build Jerusalem in his third year, and the work began in his sixth year = 521 BC and Cyrus live three more years to 518 BC.
Cyrus died not in 530 BC but in 517 BC. Cyrus made a decree in his first year in Babylon, about 526 BC. The 50 year jubile began again, at the end of the 70 years of captivity = this same 521 BC = 11 X 50 years to Jesus' speaking from Isaiah 61 in Luke 4.
The return from exile was 521 BC, and that year work to restore the temple began, and lasted only a few years. Work on the temple was suspended to 507 BC. Cyrus died the same year King K'ing became emperor over China in 518 BC and Cyrus became King about when King Ling died in 543 BC and King King became emperor. Probably there was a sun miracle both 545 BC and 518 BC that marked the beginning and ending of the reign of Cyrus. And that the Chinese took these sun miracles as an omen for a new emperor.
The date 521 BC to begin building the second temple was even 50 year jubiles to Jesus' ministry from September 9, 29 AD, or October 7, 29 AD, on Yom Kippur. The date 507 BC in King Darius' second year to start again to rebuild the second temple is in even 50 year jubiles to Jesus' birth in September of 7 BC.
Ezra 3:6 "From the first day of the seventh month began they to offer burnt offerings unto the LORD. But the foundation of the temple of the LORD was not yet laid."
The first day of the seventh month was 70 years after the temple fell on the 7th day of the 5th month.
Ezra 3:8 "Now in the second year of their coming unto the house of God at Jerusalem, in the second month, began Zerubbabel the son of Shealtiel, and Jeshua the son of Jozadak, and the remnant of their brethren the priests and the Levites, and all they that were come out of the captivity unto Jerusalem; and appointed the Levites, from twenty years old and upward, to set forward the work of the house of the LORD.
3:9 Then stood Jeshua with his sons and his brethren, Kadmiel and his sons, the sons of Judah, together, to set forward the workmen in the house of God: the sons of Henadad, with their sons and their brethren the Levites.
3:10 And when the builders laid the foundation of the temple of the LORD, they set the priests in their apparel with trumpets, and the Levites the sons of Asaph with cymbals, to praise the LORD, after the ordinance of David king of Israel."
Thus, the foundation was laid the the second month of the year as it was the first temple of Solomon. The same year 521 BC was the return from captivity from 591 BC = 50 year jubiles to Jesus' speaking from Isaiah 61 in Luke 4 on Yom Kippur, September 9, 29 AD, or October 7, 29 AD.
About this time Jesus spoke in Matthew 5, 6, 7 about the foundation of the wise man.
Thus, the reason for stopping the building in 521 BC may have been a better date pointing to Jesus' birth for laying the foundation in 507 BC. Also, 507 BC was a 49 year jubile to Jesus' sacrifice April 3, 33 AD. From 507 BC jubiles to Jesus' birth and death.
Ezra 4:5 "And hired counsellors against them, to frustrate their purpose, all the days of Cyrus king of Persia, even until the reign of Darius king of Persia."
Thus, again the foundation was laid in Darius' second year from 509 BC, 507 BC = 500 years to Jesus' birth, and finished in Darius' sixth year at the sun miracle recorded in China, the third of Adar = February 10, 504 BC.
From Joshua's conquest in 1241 BC began the 50 year jubile and the 49 year jubile. Likewise Joseph, Joshua's distant father, became governor of Egypt April 1, 2316 BC, or April 1, 2315 BC, at the same time the sun stood still for 10 days in China, whereupon Yao became emperor. The 50 year jubile ended September 7, 591 BC 70 years to begin again in 521 BC. The 49 year jubile did not have this gap. The 50 year jubile ending September 29 AD to begin Jesus' three and a half year ministry to end April 3, 33 AD the end of the 49 year jubile.
Levitcus 25:8 "And thou shalt number seven sabbaths of years unto thee, seven times seven years; and the space of the seven sabbaths of years shall be unto thee forty and nine years.
25:9 Then shalt thou cause the trumpet of the jubile 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.
25:10 And ye shall hallow the fiftieth year, and proclaim liberty throughout all the land unto all the inhabitants thereof: it shall be a jubile unto you; and ye shall return every man unto his possession, and ye shall return every man unto his family."
Thus counting from the year of conquest in 1241 BC both the 50 and 49 year jubiles.
This means God must have planned the conquest of Palestine in 1241 BC, and the 40 years in the wilderness from 1281 BC, and the 70 year captivity from 591 BC to 521 BC. This because Abraham was born about October 18, 2607 BC = the 17th day of the lunar month, even the 17th day of the Hebrew lunar month, 2600 years before Jesus to the day, the 17th day of the seventh lunar month, September 12, 7 BC.
The new moon was September 29, 2607 BC. Then August 18, 2607 BC, day 57 of cycle 60, in autumn in Huangdi's 50th year from 2656 BC, cycle 60 from Huangdi's 20th year, January 26, 2636 BC, counting from the moon's first visibility, in the Hebrew calendar, October 1, 2607 BC = October 18, 2607 BC.
"Abraham had lived for three jubilees and four weeks of years, one hundred and seventy-five years."
The Dead Sea Scrolls Study Edition Volume I. p.215
"And in the sixth year, in the seventh week of this jubilee, Abraham called Isaac, his son, and commanded him saying: I am old and I do not know the day of my death, for I have completed my days. Behold, I am one hundred and seventy-two years.."
The Dead Sea Scrolls Study Edition Volume I. p.467
3 X 50 + 7 + 7 + 6 = 170 years (not 172 years) = 2437 BC = 300 years from the Egyptian Sothis new cycle 2737 BC. Jacob was born when Isaac was 69 years old = this same 2438 BC. 70 years after 2438 BC equals exactly 2368 BC. Thus, Abraham was born in the Egyptian Sothis year 130 from 2737 BC = 2607 BC, and Jacob came into Egypt in his 130th year = the Egyptian Sothis year 430 = 2307 BC.
Abraham at 172 years old in 2435 BC = 200 years to Joseph's death at 110 years old in 2235 BC.
At the end of the Armenian sothis cycle, 2447 BC = Isaac would be 60 years old. Nevertheless, Jacob must be born when Isaac was 69 years old.
The "seventh week" may refer to the day of Pentecost = 7 X 7 days, that is 50 days = a Sunday, from the Passover on the Saturday. The first day after the Passover was a sabbath.
Leviticus 23:5 "In the fourteenth day of the first month at even is the LORD'S Passover.
23:6 And on the fifteenth day of the same month is the feast of unleavened bread unto the LORD: seven days ye must eat unleavened bread.
23:7 In the first day ye shall have an holy convocation: ye shall do no servile work therein."
Leviticus 23:16 "Even unto the morrow after the seventh sabbath shall ye number fifty days; and ye shall offer a new meat offering unto the LORD."
The Chinese start their cycle of 60 years and 60 days with the sun miracle January 26, 2636 BC = 100 years after the Egyptian sothis cycle 2737 BC and very like these dates ending X37 BC.
Likewise dates ending X30 BC are 38 years after dates ending X68 BC = the 38 years of Jesus' perfect life.
Enoch born in 522 A.M. (Anno Mundi = year of the world) and married in 582 - 588 A.M. From Adam year 700, 4668 BC - 522 years = 4146 BC, 4668 BC - 582 AM = 4086 BC.
"The fourth week of this jubile, 9th, and she gave birth to a son for him in the fifth week in the fourth year of the jubile and called his name Enoch."
The Dead Sea Scrolls. 11Q12
(9 X 49) + (4 X 7) + 3 = 441 + 31 (in the fifth week in the fourth year = (4 X 7) + 3) = 471 years.
10 more jubiles = 10 X 49 = 490 years + 471 years = 961 years.
Jubile dates are from Adam in year 700 or in year 800 = in 4668 BC or in 4568 BC.
From Adam year 800: 4568 BC - 961 = 3607 BC. From 3907 BC to 3607 BC = 300 years = Enoch at the Armenian sothis year 300 from 3907 BC = 3607 BC = 3600 years, and 3900 years, to Jesus' birth September 12, 7 BC.
Genesis 5:22 "And Enoch walked with God after he begat Methuselah three hundred years, and begat sons and daughters:"
From Adam's death in year 930: "At the close of the 19th jubile, seventh week sixth year thereof Adam died." 19 X 49 = 931 years, less one year = sixth year thereof, 930 years.
4568 BC - 588 years (the seventh week 582 to 588 AM) = 3980 BC.
Often 10 jubiles are omitted. From 4668 BC - 522 - 490 (10 X 49) = 3656 BC = sothis year 250 from 3907 BC. Married 582 AM at 60 years old = 3596 BC, died at 115 years old = 3541 BC, in year 365 from 3907 BC. 3907 BC - 365 = 3541 BC.
"In the fifteenth jubilee, in the third week, Lamech took to himself a wife..in this week she bare him a son, and called his name Noah, saying "This one will comfort me for my trouble and all my work, and for the ground which the Lord has cursed."
Ancient Book of Jubilees, by Ken Johnson, p.26.
From 4668 BC - 25 (not 15) X 49 + 15 (third week) = 3427 BC = 120 years to Noah's flood in 3307 BC:
Genesis 6:3 "And the LORD said, My spirit shall not always strive with man, for that he also is flesh: yet his days shall be an hundred and twenty years."
Noah appears in the 25th jubile, not the 15th jubilee. Noah may have been born 120 years before the flood (in 3307 BC) in 3426 BC = 25 jubiles and in the third week (2 X 14 + 1 years) = 25 X 49 + 15 = 3428 BC. 3428 BC - 120 years = 3308 BC.
Enoch born 522 AM; + ten jubiles = + 490 years; 4668 BC - (490 + 522) = 3656 BC.
Then Enoch married 582 AM; 4672 BC - 582 - 490 = 3600 BC.
Then, Enoch may have married in year 300 from 3907 BC, and died 65 years later in sothis year 365 from 3907 BC. Then, Enoch could have taught his son Methuselah for sixty years before God took him.
Genesis 5:21 "And Enoch lived sixty and five years, and begat Methuselah:
5:22 And Enoch walked with God after he begat Methuselah three hundred years, and begat sons and daughters:
5:23 And all the days of Enoch were three hundred sixty and five years:
5:24 And Enoch walked with God: and he was not; for God took him."
Enoch may have begat Methuselah in Armenian sothis year 300 from 3907 BC, and lived 65 more years to Armenian sothis year 365. The year 365 describes this sothis calendar, for the calendar backs up one day every four years. In 4 X 365 years, 1460 years, the calendar backs up to the beginning, July 11 again.
Likewise, from the Egyptian Sothis calendar from 2737 BC 365 years to 2372 BC = 48 X 50 years to Jesus' speaking on the jubile Yom Kippur, September 9, 29 AD or October 7, 29 AD.
The 49 year jubile in 2369 BC = 2400 years to Jesus' sacrifice April 3, 33 AD and 49 X 49 years 2401 years to Jesus' sacrifice April 3, 33 AD.
From the birth of Isaac in 2507 BC to 2372 BC is 135 years = 35 years more than 100 years. Jesus would be 35 years old when he began his ministry in September 9, 29 AD or October 7, 29 AD.
Likewise, in 2369 BC Isaac would be 138 years old - is 38 years more than 100 years. Jesus would be 38.5 years old when he gave his life in sacrifice April 3, 33 AD.
Adam was born in year 700 and died in year 930. 19 X 49 = 931. Then at Adam's death was added 7 and 6 years. So counting from 5372 BC + 7 + 6 = 49 year jubiles to Jesus' sacrifice, April 3, 33 AD. Likewise, Adam's death in year 930 points to Jesus' sacrifice. Then, 4489 BC is 49 years before year 930. Thus, the 49 year jubile even to the death of Abraham point to the death of Adam and Jesus' sacrifice.
Genesis 5:15 "And Mahalaleel lived sixty and five years, and begat Jared:"
"in the first week of the third year of the ninth jubilee, in the first week in the third year of this week [395 A.M.], and he called his name Mahalalel.
The Ancient Book of Jubilees 4, p. 24.
"she bare him a son in the third week of the sixth year [461 A.M.] and he called his name Jared.."
The Ancient Book of Jubilees 4, p. 24.
Genesis 5:18 "And Jared lived an hundred sixty and two years, and he begat Enoch:"
Jared born 4207 BC to Mahalaleel, back 65 years = 4272 BC = 50 year jubiles to Jesus' speaking from Isaiah 61 in Luke 4 to fulfill the jubile, Friday, September 9, 29 AD, or Friday, October 7, 29 AD.
From 4668 BC = year 700 of Adam in the Septuagint, 461 years = 4207 BC = 4200 years to Jesus' birth in 7 BC. Thus the birth of Jared was a type of Christ.
Jared at 461 A.M. and Jared at 162 years; From the Egyptian Sothis cycle 4197 BC, 300 and Enoch is 60, born 3957 BC, Jared is 60, born 4017 BC back 162 years is 4179 BC = a difference of only 18 years to 4197 BC.
Nevertheless, the Armenian sothis calendar was used utill well after Noah, not the Egyptian sothis calendar, and Enoch may have been born on the new cycle of 1460 years Armenian 3907 BC.
There was alot of longevity. Adam lived 230 years, Jared 162 years, Methuselah 187 years, Lamech 182 years, Abraham 175 years, Isaac 180 years, Jacob 147 years, Levi 137 years, Joseph 110 years, Moses 120 years, Joshua 110 years, Jehoiada 130 years.
Liked Adam, Daniel may have lived 230 years, from 630 BC to Darius II at 62 years of age in 400 BC.
Genesis 5:22 "And Enoch walked with God after he begat Methuselah three hundred years, and begat sons and daughters:
5:23 And all the days of Enoch were three hundred sixty and five years:
5:24 And Enoch walked with God: and he was not; for God took him."
"And in the eleventh jubilee Jared took himself a wife, and she bore him a son in the fifth week, in the fourth year of the jubilee [522 A.M.] and he called his name Enoch."
4668 BC - 578 years (11 X 49 + 35 + 4) = 4090 BC; perhaps the birth of Enoch, and thus the seventh from Adam.
Enoch in year 300 to year 365; from 3907 BC = 3607 BC; from Adam in 4672 BC = 1065 years. 1065 / 27 generations = 39 years a generation = the 39 years of Jesus' perfect life. Thus, Enoch may be the 27th from Adam.
Likewise, Noah in the 27th jubile, 38 years = the 38 years of Jesus' perfect life, from Adam in 4668 BC, in year 600 from 3907 BC = 3307 BC = Noah's flood.
4090 BC is in even 50 year jubiles to Joshua's long day and conquest in 1241 BC.
From 4090 BC to the Armenian Sothis start date 3907 BC = 182 years. There are 182 years of Lamech after Enoch.
"And in the twelfth jubilee, in the seventh week thereof [582-588 AM], he (Enoch) took to himself a wife..
The Ancient Book of Jubilees 4, p. 24.
A.M. is Latin for Anno Mundi, meaning "the year of the world".
"and she bare him a son, in the fifth week, fourth year, of the jubile, and called his name Enoch."
Nevertheless, this counting of the jubile, like for Noah, may be 10 more jubiles. Then Enoch in the 21st jubile. 21 X 49 + 5 X 7 + 4 = 1064. From Adam in year 700 is 4672 BC less 1064 years is 3607 BC, Enoch the 300 years from the Armenian sothis 3907 BC.
This 12th jubile be the 22d jubile. Then, 22 X 49 + 7 X 7 = 1127; 4672 - 1127 = 3545 BC = 38 years to 3507 BC = 200 years to Noah's flood 3307 BC = 3300 years to Jesus' birth September 12, 7 BC.
Noah's ark was built in the 27th jubile, fifth week, fifth year. Not the 17th jubile. Then Enoch not the 12th jubile but 10 more jubiles, the 22nd jubile.
Then a generation of 40 years in 22 jubiles = Enoch the 27th from Adam.
3545 BC is 38 years before 3607 BC = the 38 years of Jesus' life in reverse to his birth, possibly September 12, 7 BC.
Or four years more recent - the sothis calendar backs up one day every four years. Thus, 4668 BC - 1127 = 3541 BC. From 3907 BC is year 362 or year 366. Enoch's age is recorded at year 365. Enoch may have walked with God just after his marriage and his son being born.
The number of Jubiles may be increased by ten. Then, Noah's jubile was increased by ten, from 17 jubiles to 27 jubiles; thus 1323 years + (5 x 7) + 5 from 4668 BC = 3307 BC = year 600 from 3907 BC. Then Enoch in the 22d jubile plus 7 x 7th week = 1078 + 42 + 6 = 1126 years. 4668 BC - 1126 = 3543 BC = year 365 from the Armenian sothis year 3907 BC.
Thursday, April 19, 3543 BC was the spring equinox and full moon. The Exodus and Passover March 30, 1281 BC also was on a Friday, the full moon and the spring equinox. The Passover month March 20, 33 AD began on the spring equinox and Jesus' sacrifice 14 days later April 3, 33 AD.
Before Christ, BC, the Julian calendar is used. The equinox backs up one day every 128 years. Because a year is 365.24 days not 365.25 days. After, the year of our Lord in Latin, AD = Annos Domini, is in the Gregorian calendar that adjusts and keeps the same day March 19 or March 20 for spring.
Jude 1:14 "And Enoch also, the seventh from Adam, prophesied of these, saying, Behold, the Lord cometh with ten thousands of his saints,"
"And in the twelfth jubilee, in the seventh week thereof [582 - 588 A.M.], he took to himself a wife..and in the sixth year in this week she bare him a son and called his name Methuselah"
As with other jubile dates 10 is omitted. Then, not 12 but 22 X 49 + 49 = 1127; Adam in year 4668 BC - 1127 years = 3541 BC. New Sothis 3907 BC - 3541 BC = 366 years = the 365 years of Enoch.
"sixth year" and "seventh week" may mean seventh week and sixth year = 6 X 7 + 6 rather than 7 X 7. Then Enoch in year 365:
Genesis 5:23 "And all the days of Enoch were three hundred sixty and five years:"
Year 582 or year 587 from 4668 = 4081 BC, to the Exodus in 1281 BC = 2800 years, or 56 X 50 jubiles.
Enoch married and Methuselah born in 582 AM. From year 582 AM from year 700 = 4670 BC; 4090 BC are 777 more years to the death of Lamech in 3312 BC five years before Noah's flood.
3907 BC + 182 = 4089 BC. That is, Lamech at year 595 from the Armenian Sothis 3907 BC = 3312 BC; Lamech at year 777 from 182 years earlier = 4089 BC. This is very close to Methuselah born year 587 A.M. = 4081 BC. Enoch married Edni [582 A.M.] = 4082 BC.
From the Egyptian Sothis in 4197 BC is 107 years to this 4089 BC. 4197 BC is 4190 years before the birth of Jesus in September 12, 7 BC.
Nevertheless, the Armenian sothis calendar was in use untill well after Noah.
Back from the Armenian sothis in 3907 BC; 3900 years to Jesus' birth, 1461 years is 5368 BC = 5400 years to Jesus' crucifixion.
Or to be exact the sothis calendar backs up 365 days in 1460 years, but including the complete cycle is also one year. Then 1461 years back from 3907 BC is 5368 BC = Jesus' sacrifice April 3, 33 AD because there is no year zero: 5368 BC + 32 (no year zero to 33 AD) = 5400 years to Jesus' sacrifice.
777 years from 5367 BC is 4590 BC is 67 X 50 jubiles to Joshua's conquest in 1241 BC.
"in the third week, in the first year of this week [652 A.M.] and he begat a son and called his name Lamech. And in the fifteenth jubile in the third week [701 - 707 A.M.] Lamech took to himself a wife.. and in this week she bare him a son and called his name Noah.."
However, Noah's flood was in the 27th jubile five weeks fifth year = exactly 3307 BC from 4668 BC = 3307 BC, not the 15th jubile. That is, Noah in the 27th jubile not the 17th jubile = 10 more jubiles. Likewise, the Exodus in the 69th jubile not the 49th jubile = 20 more jubiles.
Genesis 5:25 "And Methuselah lived an hundred eighty and seven years, and begat Lamech:"
Thus, 187 from 587 = 400.
Shem was 100 when he left the ark in 3306 BC. Then Noah may have been married in year 500, 3407 BC. Then, Enoch married in 3542 BC, in sothis year 365, and Methuselah born. Then 48 years a generation, Lamech born in 3494 BC (182 years to year 595 = 3312 BC), 48 years to Noah about 3446 BC, and 39 years to Shem 3407 BC.
Using the same numbers as from Lamech the year 777 = the year 182 + 595. From 3907 BC - 595 years = 3312 BC = 5 years before Noah's flood in 3307 BC.
3312 BC + 182 = 3494 BC. From 3496 BC to Jesus' sacrifice in 33 AD are 72 X 49 years. From 3493 BC - 7 = 3486 years = 498 X 7 years to Jesus' birth in 7 BC.
"And in the sixth year, in the seventh week of this jubilee, Abraham called Isaac, his son and commanded him saying: I am old.. Behold, I am one hundred and seventy-two years, and throughout all the days of my life I have been remembering our God always and I sought him with all my heart.."
Co.1 (Jub 21:1-2.7-10; 4Q220 1) The Dead Sea Scrolls Study Edition, Volume 1, p.467.
"but his father called his name Benjamin, on the eleventh of the eighth month in the first of the sixth week of this jubilee [2143 AM]. And Rachel died there.."
The Ancient Book of Jubilees. p.119.
Joseph born [2134 AM] and Benjamin born 9 years later in [2143 AM].
Possibly Benjamin was born about nine years after Joseph, in 2336 BC = Saturday, November 12, 2336 BC.
Or, possibly Benjamin was born in 2333 BC, nine years after Joseph in 2342 BC = a three year difference in dates.
The 49 year jubile was in 2369 BC. The first of the sixth week = 5 X 7 + 1 = 36. From 2369 BC - 36 years = 2333 BC. Joseph born in 2345 BC = 12 years.
Joseph may have been born 9 years earlier than Benjamin, in 2342 BC = 2100 years to Joseph's descendant Joshua' on Joshua's long day in 1241 BC. Joseph would be 30 years old in 2311 BC. Joseph would be 26 years old in 2315 BC. Joseph was recorded at 30 years of age at the beginning of the seven years of famine - 2315 BC, leaving a difference of four years.
Genesis 41:46 "And Joseph was thirty years old when he stood before Pharaoh king of Egypt. And Joseph went out from the presence of Pharaoh, and went throughout all the land of Egypt."
The Dead Sea Scroll Genesis ends chapter 41 with verse 44. The words "Joseph was thirty years of age" do not appear. Joseph could have been 26 years of age when Pharaoh called him.
Nevertheless, Genesis 41:46 "And Joseph was thirty years old" appears in the Septuagint.
"And on the day Joseph stood before Pharaoh he was thirty years old, and in that year Isaac died."
Ancient Book of Jubilees, p.140.
Numbers 4:3 "From thirty years old and upward even until fifty years old, all that enter into the host, to do the work in the tabernacle of the congregation."
Isaac born in 2507 BC would be 192 in 2315 BC. Joseph went into Egypt when Isaac was 180 years old when Joseph was 17 years old.
"these shall be from twenty-five to thirty years old"
Dead Sea Scroll. 1Q33. V11:3.
Jesus would be 25 years old, born September 12, 7 BC, when Caiaphas became High Priest after Annas in 18 AD.
Nevertheless, the 2 years difference means Joseph must have been 30 years old when he was made governor over Egypt. That could be in 2313 BC, but Yao's long day in 2315 BC, 3 years less than 100 years, to Shun in 2218 BC and 50 years of Shun to Yu in 2168 BC, also points to Joseph at 30 years old in 2315 BC.
Joseph was born about 2345 BC, or 2343 BC, and be about 28 years or 30 years old when he stood before Pharaoh, and Benjamin born about 2333 BC.
Benjamin born more than 36 years after the 49 year jubile in 2369 BC may point to the 38 years of Jesus' life.
When Joseph was sold into Egypt at 17 years old, Benjamin would be ten years younger, and be 7 or 8 years old.
Then, Joseph would be 38 years old either when he became governor of Egypt in 2307 BC or Joseph became 38 years old at the end of the seven years of famine, in 2302 BC.
Joseph's age may be described as the fourth week the third day. Which can be interpreted as either 4 X 7 + 2 = 30, or 3 X 7 + 3 = 24. Thus, Joseph may have been 25 and not 30 when he was made governor over Egypt. Even so, there is only a five year difference.
Jesus may have been born Saturday, September 12, 7 BC and gave his life 38.5 years later on Friday, April 3, 33 AD.
2336 BC / 128 = 18. 18 days plus the autumn equinox September 12 = October 10. The seventh month from the spring equinox is October 10, 2336 BC, and the eighth month is November 10 = this eleventh day of the eighth month, November 12, 2336 BC.
Thus Benjamin would be 100, or 103, when his full brother Joseph died at 110 years old.
Jacob celebrated the eight days of the feast of tabernacles.
Ancient Book of Jubiliees. p.116
Jesus may have been born in the middle of this feast of booths, the feast of tabernacles, the 17th day of the seventh month, September 12, 7 BC.
The fall equinox was October 10 in 2336 BC. Jesus may have been born, also in Bethlehem, Saturday, September 12, 7 BC which is also ten days before the fall equinox September 22, 7 BC.
Saul, from the tribe of Benjamin, may have been chosen for the lineage of Christ. David was chosen instead. Benjamin born about the same time of year as Jesus would be born may have been born to point to Jesus.
Benjamin's birth according to the Ancient Book of Jubiles was 2333 BC = the 6th week = 5 X 7 = 35, first = 36 years from 2369 BC = 2333 BC. And Joseph's birth seven years earlier.
Benjamin's birth in 2333 BC is 36 years, like the 38 years of Jesus' life, from the jubile in 2369 BC. From 2369 BC to Jesus' sacrifice April 3, 33 AD is both 2400 years = 48 X 40 years, and 2401 years = 49 X 49 years.
2345 BC is 38 years to the Sojourn into Egypt in 2307 BC. And is also the 38 years of Jesus' life, Jesus' born about September 12, 7 BC.
"And in the sixth year of this week of this forty-fourth jubile Jacob sent his sons to pasture their sheep, and his servants with them, to the pastures of Shechem."
The Ancient Book of Jubilees. p.123.
From 4668 BC to Joseph born 2345 BC; Joseph at 17 in 2328 BC. 47(not 44) X 49 + 36(7X5+1) = 2339 + 2328 BC = 4668 BC.
Joseph in 2345 BC; was born 9 years after Jacob married Rachel. The series of children born to Jacob before Joseph attest to this nine years.
Abraham born 2607 BC would be 172 in 2435 BC = the sixth year. Then the jubile should count from 2441 BC. Which would equal the 1241 BC, both the 49 year and 50 year jubile, 1200 years later, of Joshua's Long day and conquest, and jubile to 591 BC at the fall of Jerusalem. Then after the 70 years of captivity the 50 year jubile from 521 BC to Jesus speaking from Isaiah 61 in Luke 4 on Yom Kippur, September 9, 29 AD, or October 7, 29 AD.
Thus, the xth jubile, tenth, or ten times, jubile, that is 7 X 10 X 49 years = 3430 years; + 1242 BC = 4672 BC = Adam in year 700 from 5368 BC. The xth the tenth, times ten, the 70th jubile = 7 X 10, in the Dead Sea Scrolls when Joshua entered the promised land in 1241 BC. Counting from the sothis cycle, 2741 BC about the 2737 BC, are 50 year jubiles to 2441 BC and to 1241 BC; even 3 X 10 X 50 jubiles (the xth jubile) from 2741 BC to 1241 BC.
This 1241 BC was a 49 year jubile to Jesus' sacrifice April 3, 33 AD. Thus, the xth jubile may simply mean the beginning of a jubile, of 49 years. Also, the same 49 year jubile was from 2368 BC = Jacob's 70th year.
"thus jubile" should be the conquest of Joshua in 1241 BC.
"commanding you to go down into Egypt, and to bring out..the signs I gave to you, and you stayed.. years you spent from the week..this jubile, for it is holy..holy angels in eternity of eternities.."
The Dead Sea Scrolls, Study Edition volume 1, p.481, 4Q225.
2237 BC - 70 years = 2167 BC.
70 years from X37 BC = X68 BC = even 100's to Jesus' sacrifice. 70 years from X07 BC (even 100's to Jesus' birth) = X37 BC again - 70 years = X68 BC again - even 100's to Jesus' sacrifice. After the 70 years captivity from 591 BC to 521 BC are even 50 year jubiles to Jesus' three and a half year ministry September 10, 29 AD to April 3, 33 AD.
Here you will see years ending in X68 BC often. Thus sun miracles on these dates would point to Jesus' birth and sacrifice and ministry.
Emperor Yu from 2169 BC, emperor Ching from 1168 BC, emperor P'ing from 769 BC, emperor Ling from 570 BC, emperor Ching-Ting from 467 BC, emperor Heen from 367 BC.
Likewise, Egyptian Pharaoh's follow the same patter of years ending in X68 BC, X45 BC, X30 BC and X07 BC.
X68 BC = 38 years from X07 BC; X45 BC = 38 years to X07 BC; X30 BC is 38 years after X68 BC; X07 BC is 100's years before Jesus' birth September 12, 7 BC.
X18 BC is 50 years to Jesus' sacrifice 18 + 32 = 50. There is no year zero. King Hwan's first year was 718 BC. 100 years later King K'ing's first year was 617 BC. King King's first year was 518 BC. King Shin-tsing's first year was 319 BC.
X72 BC or X22 BC are 50 year jubiles to Jesus' beginning of the gospel September 9, 29 AD or October 7, 29 AD.
Examples are: Joseph in Egypt in 2322 BC. The first year of emperor Shun in China 2222 BC. Moses at 40 when he fled Egypt in 1322 BC. Joshua speaking in Joshua 24 in 1222 BC the 20th year from the conquest according to Josephus. Saul's 2d year and fast Yom Kippur, September 4, 1122 BC, Alexander the Great's first year in 322 BC, the victory after the lunar eclipse of October 11, 322 BC.
Pharaoh Merneptah died at the Exodus in April of 1281 BC.
Amenmesse reigned three years to 1278 BC.
Pharaoh Seti ii to 1273 BC = 50 year jubiles to Jesus' ministry on Yom Kippur September 9, 29 AD, or October 7, 29 AD. Pharaoh Sipta to 1268 BC = 50 year jubiles to Jesus' sacrifice April 3, 33 AD.
Pharaoh Twosret three more years to 1265 BC.
Pharaoh Setnakhte three more years to 1262 BC.
Pharaoh Ramses III 31 years to 1231 BC = 38 years of Jesus' life from 1268 BC to 1231 BC.
Pharaoh Ramses IV six years to 1225 BC.
Pharaoh Ramses V four years to 1221 BC = 50 year jubiles to the beginning of Jesus' ministry September 9, 29 AD or October 7, 29 AD.
Pharaoh Ramses VI eight years to 1213 BC.
Pharaoh Ramses VII seven years to 1206 BC = 1200 years to Jesus' birth September 12, 7 BC.
Pharaoh Ramses VIII one year to 1205 BC.
Pharaoh Ramses IX 18 years to 1187 BC.
Pharaoh Ramses X four years to 1183 BC.
Pharaoh Ramses XI 29 years to 1154 BC.
Pharaoh Smendes 26 years to 1128 BC.
Amenemnisu five years to 1123 BC = 50 year jubiles to the beginning of Jesus' ministry, September 9, 29 AD, or October 7, 29 AD, and also the first year of King Saul in 1124 BC.
Pharaoh Psusennes forty six years to 1077 BC.
Pharaoh Usermaatre nine years to 1068 BC = 50 year jubiles to Jesus' sacrifice April 3, 33 AD.
Pharaoh Orsokon six years to 1062 BC.
Pharaoh Siamon 19 years to 1044 BC, 1046 BC was the 49 year jubile to Jesus' sacrifice, April 3, 33 AD.
Pharaoh Psusennes II 24 years to 1019 BC = 20 years in 2 Chronicles 8:1, from 1041 BC in building the Temple = 7 and Solomon's palace = 13 = 20 years.
Pharaoh Shoshenq 21 years to 998 BC = the fifth year of King Rehoboam of Israel from Solomon's death in 1004 BC.
Pharaoh Orsokon thirty five years to 963 BC.
Pharaoh Shoshenq II two years to 960 BC.
Pharaoh Takelot I 12 years to 948 BC.
Pharaoh Orsokon 35 years to 914 BC was the year Athaliah became Queen of Israel and King Joash was born.
Pharaoh Joash reigned 40 years from 907 BC to 967 BC = 900 years before Jesus' was born in September of 7 BC and from 967 BC = 900 years to Jesus' sacrifice.
Pharaoh Shoshenq III 39 years to 874 BC = the 39 years of Jesus' life.
Pharaoh Shoshenq IV thirteen years to 861 BC.
Pharaoh Pami seven years to 854 BC. 850 BC was a 49 year jubile to Jesus' sacrifice.
Missing 9 years to Pharaoh Pedubast II?
Pharaoh Shoshenq V 38 years from 845 BC to 807 BC = the 38 years of Jesus' life in reverse from the Passover the 14th day of the first month to Jesus' birth the 17th day of the 7th month 7 BC.
Pharaoh Pedubast II, between Shoshenq V and Osorkon, ten years 819 BC to 809 BC.
Pharaoh Osorkron IV 14 years from 807 BC to 792 BC.
Pharaoh Tanis twenty years from 776 BC to 756 BC = 752 BC when the King of Israel Uzziah died and the first year of Rome. There was recorded a solar eclipse September 6, 776 BC barely visible in China.
The Queen Alexandra Salome died in 67 BC, possibly because of the omen of a sun miracle in 68 BC.
From this 67 BC is both the 49 year jubile to Jesus' sacrifice, and from 68 BC the 50 year jubile to Jesus' sacrifice.
"And they were very fruitful and multiplied greatly during ten weeks of years, all the days of Joseph's life...and Joseph died at the age of one hundred and ten years."
The Dead Sea Scrolls Study Edition Volume I, p.212. 2Q20
Thus, the 70 years from 2315 BC to 2245 BC = the 70 years of emperor Yao. 2245 BC is 38 years before 2207 BC.
"In his 70th year, in the spring, in the first month, he caused the chief of the four mountains to convey to Shun of Yu his charge to succeed to the throne."
Note: When the emperor had been on the throne seventy years, a briliant star issued from the constellation Yih, and phoenixes appeared.."
The Chinese Classics, The reigns of Yao and Shun. p.113.
God may have moved the sun in spring from Taurus to Yih in Virgo/Corvus.
Note: His mother was called Sew-ke. She saw a falling star, which went through the constellation Maou (Taurus), and in a dream her thoughts were moved till she became pregnant, after which she swallowed a spirits pearl..she gave birth to Yu in Shih-new. He had a tiger nose and a large mouth. ..His head bore the resemblance of the stars Kow and K'een (Sagittarius). On his breast seemed in a figure in gem of the Great Bear (the Big Dipper), and in the lines of his feet he seemed to tread on the character.."
The Chinese Classics, The Dynasty of Hea. p.117.
Exodus 24:9 "Then went up Moses, and Aaron, Nadab, and Abihu, and seventy of the elders of Israel:
24:10 And they saw the God of Israel: and there was under his feet as it were a paved work of a sapphire stone, and as it were the body of heaven in his clearness.
24:11 And upon the nobles of the children of Israel he laid not his hand: also they saw God, and did eat and drink."
Taurus and Sagittarius are 180° apart. Possibly the sun moved from Taurus in spring, when would be the Passover, to Sagittarius.
Thus, Yao's zodiac with Taurus in the west and Scorpius in the east = springin the east, in this 2169 BC.
Likewise, the 50 year jubile was counted from the Armenian sothis cycle in 3907 BC to Enoch in 6 jubiles = 300 years = 3607 BC, to Noah 12 jubiles = 600 years to 3307 BC - all pointing to Jesus' birth September 12, 7 BC.
However, Enoch appears in 11 jubiles of 49 years plus 39 years = 4090 BC, and Noah 27 jubiles of 49 years from Adam in year 700 = the flood in 3307 BC. Thus, there is a 700 year gap from Enoch to Noah. Enoch may be born in Egyptian sothis year 300 = 3898 BC from 4198 BC, and Noah's flood in Armenian sothis year 600 = 3307 BC from 3907 BC.
"The general conjunction of sun, moon, and planets at the time of the Kaliyuga, which is assumed in both canons is purely hypothetical." The begin date of 3600 years before 499 AD = 3100 BC. The begin date may rather be from the sun miracles of Noah's flood in 3307 BC = 200 years earlier, when the planets and the moon should be moved out of the way of the sun. Thus, the conjunction.
Astronomy and Mathematics in Ancient India, edited by J.M. Delire. p.22
Here you can see a conjunction of all five planets above the sun on February 16, 3307 BC:
If the first appearing of Sirius was on July 11, then on February 11, 3307 BC= 150 days back from July 11, 3307 BC. February 11, 3307 BC = January 11 in the Gregorian calendar that begins with 1 AD. Thus, the rainy season in January in the Aral and Caspian Sea. In the last Ice Age, the Caspian Sea was probably higher than it is now because of abundant glacial meltwaters.
Nevertheless, Sirus would first appear before sunrise at the Aral Sea in July 23, 7 days futher back than in July 16 at Cairo Egypt and 12 days further back than July 11.
At the 40° latitude Sirius would first appear 4 AM on July 23, not July 11. Back 150 days from July 23 is February 23 = the 17th day of this second month when the flood began.
The first month must begin December 9, 3308 BC in our Gregorian calendar. Just like the first month in Yao's time in China began in the month before the winter solstice. Because the Julian calendar backs up 30 days in 3307 years. So, February 11 is January 11, the new moon February 4, 3307 BC Julian. February 11, 3307 BC the seven day moon of the second month.
The Armenian sothis calendar may have begun July 23. Then 150 days earlier = the new years backed up 600 / 4 = 150 days = Febuary 23, 3307 BC.
Genesis 7:11 "In the six hundredth year of Noah's life, in the second month, the seventeenth day of the month, the same day were all the fountains of the great deep broken up, and the windows of heaven were opened."
Genesis 7:24 "And the waters prevailed upon the earth an hundred and fifty days."
The 600 year Armenian Sothis, backs up one day every four years. Thus, this year 600 from 3907 BC = 3307 BC, and the new year 150 days back from July 23, 3307 BC = February 23, 3307 BC.
"Return of Sirius signals seasonal change" There you will see some charts for different latitudes for the first appearing of Sirius at dawn. Thus, Sirius first appears before dawn July 16 in Cairo, and on July 23 at the Aral Sea, in ancient times - and is also seen today several days later at latitudes further north.
Thus, the Bible date of Noah's flood is for the Armenian sothis calendar to start on July 23, several days after the sothis calendar began in Egypt, at Cairo on July 16.
The sun may rise in the west and set in the east on Saturday, February 23, 3307 BC.
The flood may begin on the 17th lunar day, February 23, 3307 BC. Back 150 days from new years July 23, 3307 BC is this 17th day, February 23, 3307 BC.
Likewise, Isaac's birth in 2507 BC must have been a type of Jesus. Isaac would be 72 years old when Abraham was 172 years old.
"And she bare a son in the third month, and in the middle of the month [1980 AM], at the time of which the Lord had spoken to Abraham, on the festival of the first-fruits of the harvest, [Pentecost], Isaac was born."
The Ancient Book of Jubilees, p.70
This day of Pentecost, that is, several days after Pentecost = the eighth course of Abiathar = 8 weeks after the 24th course of Zadok in the Passover, may equal the day Zachariah saw the angel in the temple. Then, John the Baptist should be conceived a week or a month later. Then, John the Baptist may have been born at the time of the Passover.
Nevertheless, Isaac must have been born in 2507 BC = 2500 years before Jesus.
There are 24 priestly courses. 8 of Abia, and then 16 more of Zadock = 24 altogether.
1 Chronicles 24:7 "Now the first lot came forth to Jehoiarib, the second to Jedaiah,
24:8 The third to Harim, the fourth to Seorim,
24:9 The fifth to Malchijah, the sixth to Mijamin,
24:10 The seventh to Hakkoz, the eighth to Abijah,
24:11 The ninth to Jeshua, the tenth to Shecaniah,
24:12 The eleventh to Eliashib, the twelfth to Jakim,
24:13 The thirteenth to Huppah, the fourteenth to Jeshebeab,
24:14 The fifteenth to Bilgah, the sixteenth to Immer,
24:15 The seventeenth to Hezir, the eighteenth to Aphses,
24:16 The nineteenth to Pethahiah, the twentieth to Jehezekel,
24:17 The one and twentieth to Jachin, the two and twentieth to Gamul,
24:18 The three and twentieth to Delaiah, the four and twentieth to Maaziah."
Caiaphas was from Maaziah, the 24th division = the last week of the month of Adar, just before the first month of Nissan, of the Passover.
John's father Zacharius must have served in the eighth priestly course of Abijah. The 24th priestly course of Zadock at the Passover was the last of Zadock. Then 8 more weeks from the Passover week should be this middle of the third month.
Pentecost should be about the fifth lunar day of the third month. The course of Abia should be between the first week and the second week of the third month.
Then Isaac may have been born about the time of year that Zachariah saw the angel in the temple that told him he would have a son.
Jesus must have been born during the feast of tabernacles. Thus, there was no room in the inn because everyone was supposed to live out doors. Thus, Jesus must have been born the 17th day of the seventh month, September 12, 7 BC, and John the Baptist born six months earlier about the Passover time.
Nevertheless, Isaac must have been born when Abraham was 100 years old in 2507 BC = 2500 years to Jesus' birth in September of 7 BC = Abraham born the 17th day of the 7th month in 2607 BC = the sun miracle in Huangdi's 50th year from 2657 BC on day 57 of cycle 60 = October 18, 2607 BC = the fall equinox as well.
Genesis 18:1 "And the LORD appeared unto him in the plains of Mamre: and he sat in the tent door in the heat of the day;"
Genesis 18:10 "And he said, I will certainly return unto thee according to the time of life; and, lo, Sarah thy wife shall have a son. And Sarah heard it in the tent door, which was behind him."
Genesis 19:23 "The sun was risen upon the earth when Lot entered into Zoar.
19:24 Then the LORD rained upon Sodom and upon Gomorrah brimstone and fire from the LORD out of heaven;
19:25 And he overthrew those cities, and all the plain, and all the inhabitants of the cities, and that which grew upon the ground."
"There was very little time for Lot to escape between dawn in verse 15, and sunrise."

If there was a sun miracle that day, the sun must return one year later on the same day of the year. Thus, there should be a sun miracle to mark the birth of Isaac.
Genesis 21:1 "And the LORD visited Sarah as he had said, and the LORD did unto Sarah as he had spoken.
21:2 For Sarah conceived, and bare Abraham a son in his old age, at the set time of which God had spoken to him.
21:3 And Abraham called the name of his son that was born unto him, whom Sarah bare to him, Isaac."
The hot time of summer is a few weeks before the autumn equinox. Thus, the autumn equinox was October 18, 2607 BC, a sun miracle to mark Abraham's birth. Then, the servants and the Lord must have come to Abraham a few weeks before this October 18 fall equinox. Then Sarah would conceive a few months later and bare Isaac at the end of summer the next year. Likewise, Jesus must have been born September 12, 7 BC just over a week before the autumn equinox September 22, 7 BC.
"And he celebrated this festival every year, seven days with joy, and he called it the festival of the Lord according to the seven days during which he went and returned in peace."
The Ancient Book of Jubilees, p.75.
Genesis 21:4 "And Abraham circumcised his son Isaac being eight days old, as God had commanded him."
Saturday, October 20, 2507 BC or Sunday, October 21, 2507 BC, was the 17th day of the 7th month. 8 days later was the same day of the week, Saturday, October 27, 2507 BC or Sunday, October 28, 2507 BC. 2500 BC / 128 = 20 days. October 20, 2507 BC = September 30, 1 AD, or September 30, 7 BC.
Or more likely, Saturday, September 22, 2507 BC was the 17th day of the 7th month = September 2, 7 BC.
Then Jesus may have been circumcised the eighth day from his birth Saturday September 12, on Saturday the Sabbath, September 19, 7 BC.
John 7:23 "If a man on the sabbath day receive circumcision, that the law of Moses should not be broken; are ye angry at me, because I have made a man every whit whole on the sabbath day?"
This Julian calendar Before Christ, was out one day every 128 years. Thus, October 18 in 2607 BC is equal to September 27 in 7 BC. This is five days after the fall equinox September 22. In years AD = Anno Domini = Year of our Lord, we use the Gregorian calendar. Before Christ, BC, we use the Julian calendar. The Julian calendar fall back one day every 128 years. The Gregorian Calendar corrects and keeps the fall September 22, the equinox, the same date.
Thus, Abraham was born in the same seventh lunar month, and the same 17th day of the lunar month.
And many many Bible dates and Chinese emperor dates point to Jesus' birth September 12, 7 BC and Jesus' crucifixion on April 3, 33 AD.
Some assume because Joseph was 30 when he appeared before Pharaoh that Jesus was 30 when he began his ministry. However, Joseph was 38 at the beginning of the seven years of famine, David 38 when he was made King of all Israel. Thus, Jesus' ministry from his 35th year to his 38th year April 3, 33 AD.
Thus, Jesus' ministry was three and a half years. However, Jesus must have been born the 17th lunar day of the 7th month, in September 12, 7 BC. Many Chinese records of sun miracles occur on dates like 907 BC = 900 years before Jesus' birth = an omen in 906 BC and emperor Muh of China died and Kung became King of China.
The 59 years of emperor Muh from 966 BC = an omen in 967 BC = 1000 years to Jesus' sacrifice.
The Armenian Sothis 1460 year may have ended in 907 BC back from 552 AD. 1460 more years back = 2368 BC.
However, the Armenian sothis calendar should be 76 more years further back. So, instead of 552 AD, the end of the calendar should be 476 AD or 474 AD; (no year zero) 1460 years back = 987 BC; 1460 years back = 2447 BC; 1460 years back = 3907 BC; 1461 years back = 5368 BC.
However, Jubile dates, such as for Noah's flood, only work if the Armenian sothis calendar ended in 476 AD. Likewise, the new 1460 cycle from 3907 BC, 3900 years to Jesus' birth in 7 BC, year 600 from 3907 BC was 3307 BC.
The 27th jubiles of years fifth week, fifth year = (27 X 49) + (5 X 7) + 5 = 1363. 1363 + 3307 BC = 4670 BC = year 700 from 5370 BC. Therefore, the Armenian sothis must have ended in 476 AD.
The Armenian calendar uses the calendar era of AD 552, reflecting the separation of the Armenian Apostolic Church from the Roman Church.
However, previously the Armenian calendar may have ended 76 years earlier, in 476 AD = the end of the 1460 year calendar. Likewise, the Egyptian calendar dates of Pharaohs should be 76 years further back and ended at the Exodus = the end of the Egyptian 1460 years, and the death of Pharaoh Merneptah not 1205 BC but 1281 BC.
Dates that match both calendars must be 76 years further back. Putting the Armenian calendar 76 years back from 552 AD gives a consistent calendar from the earliest dates of the Bible, from the Armenian Sothis calendar begin year 5368 BC = 7387 years ago from 2019 AD. The Egyptian Sothis begin year should be 5657 BC = 7675 years ago from 2019 AD.
1 Kings 11:40 "Solomon sought therefore to kill Jeroboam. And Jeroboam arose, and fled into Egypt, unto Shishak king of Egypt, and was in Egypt until the death of Solomon."
1 Kings 14:25 "And it came to pass in the fifth year of king Rehoboam, that Shishak king of Egypt came up against Jerusalem:"
2 Chronicles 12:2 "And it came to pass, that in the fifth year of king Rehoboam Shishak king of Egypt came up against Jerusalem, because they had transgressed against the LORD,"
2 Chronicles 12:5 "Then came Shemaiah the prophet to Rehoboam, and to the princes of Judah, that were gathered together to Jerusalem because of Shishak, and said unto them, Thus saith the LORD, Ye have forsaken me, and therefore have I also left you in the hand of Shishak."
2 Chronicles 12:7 "And when the LORD saw that they humbled themselves, the word of the LORD came to Shemaiah, saying, They have humbled themselves; therefore I will not destroy them, but I will grant them some deliverance; and my wrath shall not be poured out upon Jerusalem by the hand of Shishak."
2 Chronicles 12:9 "So Shishak king of Egypt came up against Jerusalem, and took away the treasures of the house of the LORD, and the treasures of the king's house; he took all: he carried away also the shields of gold which Solomon had made."
From 1004 BC Rehoboam's fifth year may be 998 BC, a 49 year jubile to Jesus' sacrifice. Likewise 1004 BC was a seventh year, fallow year for farming from Joshua's conquest from 1242 BC.
This fifth year = 1001 BC not 925 BC. The Egyptian chronology must be moved 76 years back; from 925 BC= 1001 BC. Pharaoh Merneptah may have died April 5, 1281 BC not May 1205 BC. Thus, when the Armenian calendar was matched to the Egyptian calendar there may be the same 76 year difference.
Likewise Jacob and his sons sojourned in Egypt in the 430th Egyptian sothis year 2307 BC = 2300 years before Jesus' birth. By almost all accounts Jesus must have been crucified April 3, 33 AD. This makes Jesus thirty five when he began his ministry and not thirty as was assumed in Luke's account. Thus, Jesus was in his 30th decade, not beginning his 30th year.
Counting from when Moses was 40; 1281 BC (80 years old) - 40 years = 1321 BC (40 years old).
"There are 49 jubilees from the days of Adam until this day, and one week and two years [2410AM], crossing the Jordan to the west."
Ancient Book of Jubilees, Laws Regarding the Jubilees and the Sabbaths, p.163
There should be 69 jubilees to the Exodus, not 49 jubilees, twenty jubilees were simply omitted as were 27 jubilees, 49 year jubilees, to Noah's flood, not 17 jubilees.
Thus, from Adam in year 700 = 4672 BC, 69 X 49 = 3381 years = 1291 BC less seven years and two years = 1281 BC.
The Romans wrote 28 as XXIIX = 10 + 10 - 2 + 10; thus the week less two years = 1281 BC exactly. From the Roman calendar:
The new sothis 3907 BC back 1461 years to 5368 BC. 5372 BC was 4 years earlier. So, the writing XX11X = 28 may be misunderstood for XXX11 32 = a difference of 4. Also, the sothis calendar backs up one day every four years. So the difference from 5368 BC and 5372 BC may be the difference of the counting of one day.
From Adam in year 700 in 4672 BC was both 49 year jubiles to Jesus' sacrifice April 3, 33 AD, and 50 year jubiles to Jesus speaking from Isaiah 61 in Luke 4 in September of 29 AD.
5368 BC was 50 year jubiles to Jesus' sacrifice April 3, 33 AD and 1460 years to the new sothis in 3907 BC.
49 year jubiles to the end of Jesus' ministry at the Passover April 3, 33 AD, and 50 year jubiles to the beginning of Jesus' ministry on Yom Kippur = either September 9, 29 AD or October 7, 29 AD.
Because 1242 BC was a 49 year jubile to Jesus' sacrifice in 33 AD, then the year 1281 BC would be written 49 jubiles one week two years = 1281 BC from 4672 BC.
That is, 1291 BC would be both the 50 year and 49 year jubile, and 7 + 2, that is 9 years later, would be the Exodus, Friday, March 30, 1281 BC.
Joshua would cross the Jordan to the west "yet forty years to come" = 1241 BC.
Then counting 50 year cycles from the return from the 70 year captivity in 521 BC to the first year of Jesus' ministry in 29 AD. 27 X 50 = 1350 years. Then counting 49 year cycles from the death of Ramses II in 1291 BC to Jesus' crucifixion in 33 AD; 27 X 49 = 1323 years = 1291 BC + 33 AD. There is no zero BC.
Also, 1291 BC was 700 years before the fall of Jerusalem in 591 BC.
Jesus appears in the Gospels about the Passover of 29 AD to begin his ministry in Luke 4 on Yom Kippur, September 9, 29 AD, or October 7, 29 AD.
The next Passover is from John 2:13 = March 8, 30 AD, or April 7, 30 AD.
John 5:1 "After this there was a feast of the Jews; and Jesus went up to Jerusalem."
Then the feast, not a feast, = the Passover from John 5:1 in spring 31 AD = the pools of water should only be full in spring at the Passover. Then "the feast" a Passover from John 6:4 in spring 32 AD. The last Passover from John 19 April 3, 33 AD.
"State records from the seventh century BC reveal: "The Sun was eclipsed; drums were beaten and oxen were sacrificed at the temple."
"The annular eclipse of the sun on May 21, 30 AD was interpreted as a demonstration of disapproval for the emperor' refusal to accept the recommendation of high officials."
Moon Shadow, The Story of the Total Eclipse, p.63
Here you can see this solar eclipse was not visible in China:
Here you see the correct solar eclipse visible in China:
This May 10, 31 AD would be the middle of Jesus' three and a half year ministry. There may have been sun miracles then to point to Jesus. There would be the sign of Jonah = a long day/night or twilight of three days when Jesus was crucified.
Sun miracles can occur half an orbit later, and the sun move back and earth flow out of the reverse orbit of the sun.
Thus, the sun must move in Jesus' ministry, and there be two years of reverse orbit to build 96 hours of sped up time to equal 1 X 180° = a 12 hour longer day/night April 3, 31 AD and a 7 X 180° = 7 X 12 hours = 84 hours, longer day/night = the sun move back for a long day or night when Jesus died and rose from the grave.
Possibly the sun moved 180° four years earlier April 3, 29 AD = the new moon = 4 X 48 hours of longer days = 4 X 48 hours sped up earth reverse orbit.
The sun may have been moved around the earth 360° in 55 minutes = two sped up Fall/Winter reverse half orbits of 30 minutes sped up time to counter the one hour of darkness when Jesus was on the cross.
Thus, there may have been sun miracles during Jesus' ministry from 29 AD to 33 AD that was taken as an omen.
Jesus spoke on Yom Kippur in Luke 4 on September 9, 29 AD or October 7, 29 AD. Then half an orbit later at the Passover oin March 8, 30 AD or April 7, 30 AD, Jesus spoke:
John 2:13 "And the Jews' Passover was at hand, and Jesus went up to Jerusalem,"
John 2:19 "Jesus answered and said unto them, Destroy this temple, and in three days I will raise it up."
2:20 Then said the Jews, Forty and six years was this temple in building, and wilt thou rear it up in three days?"
Herod began to rebuild the temple in 18 BC. 46 years later is this 29 AD / 30 AD.
Luke 6:1 "And it came to pass on the second sabbath after the first, that he went through the corn fields; and his disciples plucked the ears of corn, and did eat, rubbing them in their hands."
Luke 6:5 "And he said unto them, That the Son of man is Lord also of the sabbath."
The second sabbath after Jesus spoke from Isaiah 61 in Luke 4 on the tenth day of the seventh month, on the day of Atonement, Yom Kippur, was Jesus' birthday, the 17th day of the seventh month.
Likewise, Jesus may have been born on the sabbath, the 17th day of the 7th month, September 12, 7 BC.
From October 7, 29 AD to April 7, 30 AD are 182 days = a half orbit when the sun may return. The first sabbath is the Passover = the full moon = Friday, April 7, 30 AD. Friday sunset = the sabbath.
Three and a half years from October 7, 29 AD to Jesus' sacrifice April 3, 33 AD is October 5, 29 AD.
There is a possible seven half orbits, from October 7, 29 AD to April 3, 33 AD.
"Now that our Saviour taught his preaching three years, is demonstrated both by other necessary reasonings, as out of the holy Gospels, and out of Josephus's writings, who was a wise man among the Hebrews, & etc."
The Complete Works of Josephus, Dissertation 1, p.641
Josephus wrote of his journey to Rome that equals Paul's journey to Rome: The shipwrecks of Josephus and Paul
Luke 7:28 "For I say unto you, Among those that are born of women there is not a greater prophet than John the Baptist: but he that is least in the kingdom of God is greater than he."
Elijah and Moses appeared with Jesus in glory on the mount of transfiguration.
Matthew 17:10 "And his disciples asked him, saying, Why then say the scribes that Elias must first come?"
17:11 "And Jesus answered and said unto them, Elias truly shall first come, and restore all things."
17:12 "But I say unto you, That Elias is come already, and they knew him not, but have done unto him whatsoever they listed. Likewise shall also the Son of man suffer of them."
Matthew 11:14 "And if ye will receive it, this is Elias, which was for to come."
John the Baptist may be Elijah. Thus John the Baptist be in glory in Heaven.
Josephus was very favourably impressed by an Essene Banus who "lived in the desert, and used no other clothing than grew upon trees, and had no other food than what grew of its own accord, and bathed himself in cold water frequently, both by night and day, in order to preserve his chastity, I imitated him in those things, and continued with him three years."
Banus lived like John the Baptist. Josephus was impressed by the testimony of John the Baptist.
Jesus took the least place to go to the cross for us. And not that John the Baptist had sinned, but Jesus took our sins. Thus, Jesus is greater than John the Baptist.
When at Qumran by the Dead Sea in September, 2010, and again in April 2018, we were showed a video. There was recorded at the time John was beheaded, one asked their leader if John the Baptist was the same person by the name of John who had been with them. Their leader denied this, and said John the Baptist was someone else, and not to listen to other teachers. Thus, probably John the Baptist had been with them and their leader did not want to lose his following.
Then the statement there is no record of John the Baptist in the Dead Sea Scrolls is incorrect.
Ezekiel 1:1 "Now it came to pass in the thirtieth year, in the fourth month, in the fifth day of the month, as I was among the captives by the river of Chebar, that the heavens were opened, and I saw visions of God.
1:2 In the fifth day of the month, which was the fifth year of king Jehoiachin's captivity,"
The 30th year of the 50 year jubile from 1241 BC was 611 BC. Jehoiachin was a captive in his fifth year from 612 BC = 607 BC. Thus, this same 611 BC was his first year.
Sunday, June 20, 611 BC = the fourth month, fifth day of the month. This would be a few days before the summer solstice.
Or, Sunday, May 23, 611 BC be the fourth month from February and the fifth day = Pentecost. Likewise the Pentecost, Sunday, May 24, 33 AD and the Pentecost, Sunday, May 20, 1281 BC.
Half an orbit from the summer solstice is about 182 days, half of 365 days.
"His first year was Kwei-maou (40th of cycle 60 = 617 BC). In his sixth year (611 BC), a comet entered the Great Bear (Northern Bushel); and the king died."
The comet may be a part of a sun miracle to mark the captivity.
King K'wang, "His first year was ke-yew (46th of cycle 60 = 611 BC)"
The Chinese Classics, The Annals of the Bamboo Books, p.164
"In his sixth year, duke Ching Ch'uen of Tsin, with some of the northern hordes, attacked Ts'in, and captured a spy, whom they put to death in the market place of Keang, and who came to life again six days after."
From 605 BC, the sixth year of duke Ching Ch'uen of Tsin, was 600 BC.
Jeremiah 28:1 "And it came to pass the same year, in the beginning of the reign of Zedekiah king of Judah, in the fourth year, and in the fifth month, that Hananiah the son of Azur the prophet, which was of Gibeon, spake unto me in the house of the LORD, in the presence of the priests and of all the people, saying,
28:2 Thus, speaketh the LORD of hosts, the God of Israel, saying, I have broken the yoke of the king of Babylon.
28:3 Within two full years will I bring again into this place all the vessels of the LORD's house, that Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon took away from this place, and carried them to Babylon:"
The fourth year of Zedekiah = the sixth year of King Ting = 599 BC. Perhaps this spy in China came to life by a miracle at the same time as a sun miracle.
Malachi 4:2 "But unto you that fear my name shall the Sun of righteousness arise with healing in his wings;"
The 30th year of the 50 year jubile from the year of Joshua's long day 1241 BC was this 611 BC. The Chinese often changed their emperors when there was a sun miracle.
Ezekiel 4:5 "For I have laid upon thee the years of their iniquity, according to the number of the days, three hundred and ninety days: so shalt thou bear the iniquity of the house of Israel.
4:6 And when thou hast accomplished them, lie again on thy right side, and thou shalt bear the iniquity of the house of Judah forty days: I have appointed thee each day for a year."
Back from the captivity in 591 BC 390 years is 981 BC in the third year of King Asa. Back another 40 years is 1021 BC in the 21st year of Solomon's beginning to build the temple seven years and thirteen more years to the completion of his own house.
Back from the captivity in 591 BC 40 years is 631 BC = the 12th year of King Josiah.
2 Chronicles 34:3 "For in the eighth year of his reign, while he was yet young, he began to seek after the God of David his father: and in the twelfth year he began to purge Judah and Jerusalem from the high places, and the groves, and the carved images, and the molten images."
Back from the captivity in 591 BC 430 years is 1021 BC = 50 year jubiles to Jesus speaking from Isaiah 61 in Luke 4 on Yom Kippur.
1 Kings 9:10 "And it came to pass at the end of twenty years, when Solomon had built the two houses, the house of the LORD, and the king's house,"
1 Kings 15:11 "And Asa did that which was right in the eyes of the LORD, as did David his father.
15:12 And he took away the sodomites out of the land, and removed all the idols that his fathers had made."
Forward from 591 BC 40 years to 551 BC. Forward 390 years from 397 BC, about the death of Darius II and the first year of Cyrus the younger, is Jesus' birth in 7 BC. Forward 430 years from 398 BC is Jesus' sacrifice.
Daniel 9:26 "And after threescore and two weeks 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."
Daniel may haved lived to this 402 BC.
Ezra 8:1 "These are now the chief of their fathers, and this is the genealogy of them that went up with me from Babylon, in the reign of Artaxerxes the king.
8:2 Of the sons of Phinehas; Gershom: of the sons of Ithamar; Daniel: of the sons of David; Hattush."
Nehemiah 10:1 "Now those that sealed were, Nehemiah, the Tirshatha, the son of Hachaliah, and Zidkijah,"
10:6 Daniel, Ginnethon, Baruch,"
The dedication of the wall was in 458 BC, 490 years to Jesus' sacrifice.
Daniel 9:24 "Seventy 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."
Or possibly the dedication of the wall of Jerusalem was in 438 BC, the 20th year of Artaxerxes. The 32d year of Artaxerxes was in 426 BC. The last year of Artaxerxes was in 417 BC. The first year of Darius II should be 416 BC or 413 BC. The 9th year or 7th year of Darius II may be in 407 BC.
Daniel 9:1" In the first year of Darius the son of Ahasuerus, of the seed of the Medes, which was made king over the realm of the Chaldeans;"
Darius II was the son of Ahasuerus = Xerxes, the son of Artaxerxes. Darius II reigned not from 423 BC; but from 416 BC; for 19 years to 397 BC.
Or, Darius II reigned eleven years more recent from 412 BC.
"According to the Hebrew Bible, the temple was completed in the sixth regal year of Darius II, which would place the event around 418 BC, although it is impossible to be absolutely certain about that, since the dating of biblical texts and events in the Persian period is notoriously difficult."
Persians, the acts of the Great Kings, p.283.
The battle of Mantineia in late 418 BC should be 7 years more recent in September 411 BC.
Alexander the Great's death should be 11 years more recent than 323 BC, and be 312 BC.
The death of Artaxerxes should be 7 yeares more recent in 417 BC, not 424 BC.
The 11 years more recent solar eclipse of July 13, 383 BC than of August 14, 394 BC.
"404 BC. In the following year 2. the people passed a resolution to choose thirty men to draft a constitution based on the ancestral laws of the State.."
2. "The MSS. here add "it was that year of the Olympiad cycle which Crocinas, a Thessalonian, won the Stadium' when Endius was ephor at Sparta, and Pythodorus archon at Athens, though the Athenians indeed do not call the year of that archon's name, since he was elected during the oligarchy, but prefer to speak of the year of 'anarchy'; the aforsaid oligarchy originated thus, "...which, though correct, probably was not written by Xenophon. The year of anarchy might perhaps be better rendered "the year without archons."
"and Agis withdrew the land force from Deceleia and disbanded the troops, dismissing the contigents to their several cities. In was this date, about the time of the solar eclipse, that Lycophon of Pharae, who was ambitious of ruling over the whole of Thessaly, defeated those sections of the Thessalians who opposed him, such as the men of Larissa and others, and slew many of them. It was also about this date that Dionysius, now tyrant of Syracuse, was defeated by the Carthaginians.."
Ancient Greek Philosophers, Hellenica. 718.
Likewise, you can see here, this date of the solar eclipse, was ten years more recent, on August 13, 394 BC, rather than September 3, 404 BC. Likewise, the solar eclipse of August 14, 394 BC be eleven years more recent, July 13, 383 BC. Simply the dates of the chronology is ten or eleven years more recent.
Darius II's first year should be one year after the death of Artaxerxes in 417 BC, and be in 416 BC. Artaxerxes reigned 41 years from 458 BC to 417 BC.
Thus, Darius II's sixth year should be 410 BC; 416 BC - 6 = 410 BC. The second year of Darius II may have been 415 BC.
Seven years after 416 BC = 409 BC.
From 409 BC are 63 weeks of years to Jesus' sacrifice April 3, 33 AD.
The wall of Jerusalem must have been built in 458 BC, and after the temple was built and finished in 504 BC on the third of Adar.
The building the temple must come first = to start the second year of Darius in 507 BC and complete on the third of Adar = day 48 of cycle, year 33 of cycle = the solar eclipse record in China, February 10, 504 BC.
Cyrus gave approval to build the temple about 521 BC but he stopped it short and he died in 518 BC. Then in 507 BC Darius I resumed to build the temple. In February 10, 504 BC on the third of Adar the temple was finished.
In 458 BC at the 20th year of Xerxes from 477 BC and his death and the first year of his son Artraxerxes, when Nehemiah had the wall of Jerusalem built. The Darius that saw the temple finished in his sixth year may be Darius II in 410 BC, in his sixth year from 416 BC.
Darius II was about 62 in 413 BC when he became King.
Nevertheless, Darius I's sixth year should be 504 BC and be the Darius of Ezra, matching the solar eclipse, rather sun miracle, of February 10, 504 BC on day 48 of cycle 60 and year 504 BC not 505 BC, with the third of Adar and the completion of the temple.
The date of the solar eclipse record in the Chinese Classics is for February 10, 504 BC even though there was a solar eclipse on February 16 on day 48 of cycle in 505 BC.
It makes more sense to build the temple first in this 507 BC and the wall later in 458 BC, a strong reason to have a wall to protect something within.
Forward from 62 weeks from 402 BC, 434 years, to Jesus' sacrifice April 3, 33 AD. Forward 430 years from 402 BC, is 29 AD and the beginning of Jesus' ministry.
"19th year/Summer Syracuse, After Gylippus returns to Syracuse with reinforcements, the Athenians finally decide to leave Syracuse. An eclipse of the moon changes their minds, however, and Nicias insists that they wait at least twenty-seven days, as prescribed by the soothsayers"
August 27, 413 BC was supposed to be this lunar eclipse. The lunar eclipse should be seven years more recent, September 28, 405 BC or eight years more recent, August 18, 404 BC.
Because the Athenians waited they were almost all destroyed, and Athens was captured soon after.
"All was at last ready, and they were at the point of sailing away when an eclipse of the moon, which was then of the full, took place."
The Landmark Thucydides, A comprehensive guide to the Peloponnesian War, p. 459.
August 27, 413 BC: other alternative dates: August 8, 403 BC, July 29, 402 BC, June 18, 401 BC, July 17, 401 BC = up to 11 or 12 years more recent.
This lunar eclipse should be in 402 BC = the 11th year of Darius II, 62 weeks of years to Jesus' sacrifice April 3, 33 AD and Darius II may have been 62 years old that year.
There was a lunar eclipse for August 28, 413 BC that may have been been 9 years later on August 18, 404 BC, or 11 years later on July 29, 402 BC, or 12 years later, July 17, 401 BC. Only the August 18, 404 BC eclipse was a total lunar eclipse.
Here is a solar eclipse over Syracuse Sicily, September 3, 404 BC nine years more recent than 413 BC. The date September 3 is very near the date August 28. The eclipse was more likely a solar eclipse than a lunar eclipse, even though written "an eclipse of the moon". There were no solar eclipses for the period of 413 BC visible in Sicily.
There was a battle between Athens and Sparta, said to be 413 BC but must be 9 or 12 years more recent, just as the troops were to withdraw on their ships there was an eclipse, Athens was defeated.
"Thucydides notes an eclipse of the sun, and describes the maneuvers and plans of the Mytilenian exiles."
"In the first days of the next summer there was an eclipse of the sun at the time of the new moon, and in the early part of the same month an earthquake."
"The Athenians afterwards sent back Artaphernes in a trireme to Ephesus, and ambassadors with him who heard there of the death of King Artaxerxes son of Xerxes, which took place about that time, and so returned home."
"Once fortified there, they would have every facility for shipbuilding, from the vicinity of Mount Ida (in Crete)"
The Landmark Thucydides, A Comprehensive Guide to the Peloponnesian War. 7th year 425 BC.p.251
The Solar eclipse March 21, 424 BC could just as easily been eight years later, April 21, 416 BC, the slight edge of the moon on the sun visible from Crete. "of the next summer" is more like April 21, 416 BC than March 21, 424 BC.
"who heard there of the demise of King Artaxerxes, son of Xerxes, which happened approximately that time, and so returned home."...
"In first days of the next summer time there had been an eclipse of the solar at the time of the latest moon, and inside the early part of the same month an earthquake."
The History of the Peloponnesian War, Thucydides. p.299.
If this April 21, 416 BC was not the eclipse, the year may be 414 BC when was no solar eclipse match, and this be a sun miracle, ten years more recent than 424 BC Thus, there be rather a sun miracle and also the earthquake. Eclipses do not match these years.
Next, in the battle of Salamis there were two solar eclipses, one in spring and one in fall, six months apart. Sun miracles must happen six months apart. Solar eclipses do not correctly match.
The Greek Olympics was in the same year, cycle of four years, not 480 BC - from 776 BC, but 472 BC = 8 years more recent = not 9 years more recent.
The battle of Salamis was on September 26, that happened on the last day of the feast of tabernacles, on lunar day 21, September 26, 480 BC:
Nevertheless, the true date of the battle of Salamis was eight years more recent, also on an Olympiad year, also on September 26, also on lunar day 21, also on the last day of the feast of Tabernacles:
The important part is the date September 26, 480 BC = September 27, 472 BC.
"About an hour after dawn, at sunrise, an earthquake was felt by land and by sea..the battle was now set to take place." "dawn of September 24.
The Battle of Salamis, by Berry Strauss. p.89.
The battle of Salamis Saturday, September 27, 472 BC / Sunday, September 27, 472 BC = the 21st day of the 7th month = the last and great day of the feast of Tabernacles.
= Joshua's long day, also the 21st day of the 7th month, Saturday, August 10, 1241 BC.
Half an orbit before the last day of the feast of tabernacles, September 27, 472 BC is the Passover, March 27, 472 BC:
The sun darkened at noon on the Passover, March 27, 472 BC like it was when Jesus was on the cross, April 3, 33 AD = the sun darkened in spring when Xerxes began his journey to Greece. The sun must return half an orbit later, a sign on the last great day of the feast of tabernacles, on the battle of Salamis, September 27, 472 BC = the omen for the Spartans to let Xerxes go:
These sun miracles on the start of Xerxes campaign, March 27, 472 BC and on the battle of Salamis, September 27, 472 BC point to God taking action both to point to Jesus and in the battle of Xerxes in the battle of Salamis.
"The reason of Cleombrotus’ leading his army away from the Isthmus was that while he was offering sacrifice for victory over the Persian the sun was darkened in the heavens."
Thus, the sun returning half an orbit later at the battle of Salamis = both eclipses = sun miracles, in the spring of Xerxes' campaign and in the fall at the battle of Salamis.
The edge of the solar eclipse Monday, April 8, 2024 is unclear. We do not know the size of the sun, and the moon is not all smooth. God put the sun back after each sun miracle but there may be slight differences in our projections and observations.
Archeological Finds Shed Light on Ancient Greek Battle of Salamis "Late-night and early-morning northwest winds, or Etesian winds, in the Saronic Gulf, combined with local south sea breezes in the late morning, trapped the Persian fleet in the narrow Strait of Salamis during the afternoon, leading to a Greek victory in the early evening. This particular wind pattern is still present today and takes place mainly from May to September, when the sun is especially strong,"
The season of wind changes up to the end of September.
The father of Luh-ching was Duke Ching of Sung. He witnessed Mars in the heart constellation of Scorpius, where it would not normally be then in 480 BC in October. Mars should be in Leo in September of 480 BC - that is 90° from the heart constellation in Scorpius. See Mars.
Luh-ching succeeded his father in the 11th month in 464 BC = the 12th month of Adar of Purim in Esther, the 13th of Adar, about the time Lu Yang witnessed the setting sun retreat to the meridian on China.
The battle of Marathon was dated to September 12, 490 BC = the 17th day of the seventh month. The date must be brought forward 10 years to September 480 BC.
The battle of Marathon of Darius I was fought about this solar eclipse of October 2, 480 BC = ten years more recent than the date of 490 BC.
The battle of Marathon may have been fought in 482 BC, 8 years more recent than 490 BC, just as the battle of Salamis was fought in 472 BC 8 years more recent than 480 BC.
Darius reigned 31 years from 509 BC to 478 BC.
Ptolemy recorded a lunar eclipse in Darius I 31st year, August 28, 478 BC:
Or, Darius I 31st year from 509 BC = not April 25, 490 BC, but, March 14, 479 BC = 31st year from 509 BC, also in spring:
Nevertheless, March 25, 480 BC is the same date, one month earlier, 11 years later, April 25, 491 BC.
There was a sun miracle recorded in China in September 480 BC at the time Darius was in the battle of Marathon.
You can see the path of the partial solar eclipse on October 2, 480 BC:
The first portent in spring:
"The army waited for winter to pass.. At the very beginning of its journey, the sun left its seat in the heavens and disappeared; and although the sky had been especially clear and cloudless, day was now eclipsed into night. Xerxes himself observed this and grew concerned. He asked the Magi what the portent meant. They told him that the God was showing the Hellenes in advance that he would abandon their cities, since the sun is the prophetic symbol for the Hellenes, while for the Persians it is for the moon."
"The eclipse cannot be confirmed by astronomical calculations."
The Landmark Herodotus. 7.37.2a
"The exact dating has been debated, as the writings of Herodotus (who chronicled the eclipse) give a date for which there was no eclipse visible in that area of the world."
Thus, the possibility this portent was at the Passover in the spring = the sun moved around the earth at the speed of light = "left its seat in the heavens and disappeared". The sun darkened on the Passover March 27, 472 BC as it was when Jesus was on the cross, April 3, 33 AD.
No solar eclipses match the given date of 480 BC "The eclipse cannot be confirmed by astronomical calculations.", nor the correct time 8 years more recent of 472 BC. Nor do any solar eclipses match the second portent in the fall.
The second portent in fall:
"Kleombrotus had led the army back from the isthmus because as he was sacrificing to determine what to do about the Persians, the sun was darkened in the heavens..the troops..then marched out of Sparta."
The Landmark Herodotus, 9.10.3. The Spartans send their army north. p.669.
The Olympiad was in 480 BC = the year of the battle of Salamis. Only the battle of Salamis was 8 years more recent also on the year of the Olympiad. The Olympiad was every four years from 776 BC. The date in The Landmark Herodotus, 9.10.3. The Spartans send their army north. p.669 in 480 BC.
"And they continued to delay from day to day in this matter ten days in all. Meanwhile the Peloponnesians were working as hard as they could on the wall..the wall not yet finished..the sun was darkened in the heavens.."
The Landmark Herodotus. 9.9.3a p.669.
September 15, 472 BC, the tenth day of the seventh month, (the battle of Salamis was probably September 27, 472 BC) was the day of Atonement = 500 years to the 50 year jubile when Jesus spoke from Isaiah 61 in Luke 4. Yom Kippur, September 15, 472 BC to September 12, 29 AD or October 9, 29 AD, there is no year zero, 472 + 28 = 500 years.
Thus, if the sun was darkened, and not just grazed by the moon, this darknened sun may be a sun miracle in the seventh year of King Xerxes in the time of the book of Esther.
The omen, the sun left its place in the sky, for the Spartans to let the Persians go on the 22d day of the 7th month - that cannot be a solar eclipse, September 27, 472 BC would be on the last day of tabernacles.
The date of October means a sun miracle about October. There was a partial solar eclipse October 2, 480 BC, but the actual date must be 8 years more recent in 472 BC, and no solar eclipses in 472 BC match either = the solar eclipses must be sun miracles six months apart.
The 7th year of Xerxes from 478 BC is 472 BC, or from 477 BC is 471 BC. The Olympiad of 480 BC is the Olympiad of 472 BC.
A sun miracle in the seventh Hebrew month, such as September 27, 472 BC on the last day of the feast of Tabernacles, a jubile year from Yom Kippur, September 15, 472 BC to foretell Jesus speaking 500 years later, 10 X 50 year jubiles, from Isaiah 61 in Luke 4, October 7, 29 AD.
Esther 2:16 "So Esther was taken unto king Ahasuerus into his house royal in the tenth month, which is the month Tebeth, in the seventh year of his reign.
2:17 And the king loved Esther above all the women, and she obtained grace and favour in his sight more than all the virgins; so that he set the royal crown upon her head, and made her queen instead of Vashti.
2:18 Then the king made a great feast unto all his princes and his servants, even Esther's feast; and he made a release to the provinces, and gave gifts, according to the state of the king."
The seventh year of Xerxes from 478 BC = the seventh year of release, is 472 BC = 50 year jubiles to Jesus speaking in Luke 4, September 9, 29 AD or October 7, 29 AD.
The Olympic games in Greece would normally be in this 472 BC, not 480 BC, from 776 BC, and the battle of Salamis in September of 472 BC.
The return of Kleombrotos when the sun was darkened in the heavens was at the battle of Salamis, September 27, 472 BC.
There are no satisfactory total solar eclipse matches for these portents.
A sun miracle in September 27, 472 BC is 500 years, 10 X 50 year jubiles, to Jesus speaking from Isaiah 61 in Luke 4, probably October 7, 29 AD.
The sun rising in the west to the meridian noon position in China recorded by Lu Yang may mean the sun went down in the east in Israel.The darkness in Israel may equal the same sun miracle of Lu Yang may equal the light of Purim of Esther = the sun setting in the east and rising from the east.
The sun rising in the west in China = the noon sun setting in the east in Israel / Egypt, Lu Yang and Purim of Esther in 465 BC, 230 BC in China, and Hanukkah and Emperor Wen in 164 BC.
"and twice setting where he now rises" in 230 BC.
"Helius, already in mid career, wrested his chariot about and turned his horses' heads towards the dawn."
"Then the army, having wintered at Sardis and now being fully equiped, began its march the following spring from Sardis to Abydus. As it was departing, the sun left its place in the sky and vanished - though it was clear and cloudless weather - and the day gave place to night. Seeing and marking this, Xerxes became anxious and inquired of the Magi as to the significance of this portent. He was told that the God was foretelling to the Greeks the eclipse of their cities, for it was the sun that gave forewarning to the Greeks, just as the moon did for the Persians. Reassured by this reply, Xerxes continued with the march."
The Greek Histories, [7:37]
Then the possibility this was a total solar eclipse or a sun miracle.
Esther 2:16 "So Esther was taken unto king Ahasuerus into his house royal in the tenth month, which is the month Tebeth, in the seventh year of his reign."
September usually was the seventh month of the year, Sept = seven. God may have darkened the sun to help Xerxes in the battle of Salamis.
The second portent in fall:
"At the very beginning of its journey, the sun left its seat in the heavens and disappeared; and though the sky had been especially clear and cloudless, the day was now eclipsed into night. Xerxers himself observed this and grew concerned. He asked the Magi what this portent meant. They told him it was the god showing the Hellenes in advance that he would abandon their cities, since the sun is the prophetic symbol for the Hellenes, while for the Persians it is the moon. When Xerxes heard this, he rejoiced and continued his march."
Note: "This eclipse cannot be confirmed from astronomical calculations."
The Landmark Herodotus. 7.37.2. p.514.
The fact no eclipse records match is a sign these dates are several years too far back.
The year 480 BC is given. It should be year 472 BC. The sun did not disappear in a total solar eclipse in the years around 472 BC.
This may not be a solar eclipse, but rather a sun miracle. "the sun left its seat" may mean the sun moved and disappeared in the east or west.
431 BC:
"1st year/Summer HELLAS. An eclipse of the sun."
"The same summer, at the beginning of a new lunar month, the only time, by the way, at which it appears possible, the sun was eclipsed after noon. After it had assumed the form of a crescent and some of the stars had come out, it returned to its natural shape."
The Landmark Thucydides, A comprehensive guide to the Peloponnesian War, p. 107.
The total solar eclipse record for August 3, 431 BC, 5:22 PM, that was total north of Athens may be in Artaxerxes' 27th year and not his 34th year.
There were four partial solar eclipses more recent:
The solar eclipse of 426 BC, five years more recent, was on November 4:
The solar eclipse of 424 BC, seven years more recent, was on March 21:
The solar eclipse of 423 BC was on March 10:
The solar eclipse of 418 BC was on June 11 in summer as was the August 3, 431 BC solar eclipse:
But only the solar eclipse for August 3, 431 BC was total.
"There were earthquakes of unparalleled extent and violence. Eclipses of the sun occurred with a frequency unrecorded in previous history."
The Geek Histories. p.140.
Alexander the Great died not in 323 BC but eleven years more recent in 312 BC.
Artaxerxes reigned 41 years from 458 BC, not from 465 BC = seven years more recent.
"Mister Johnson, however, on the ground that the eclipse was more partial than had been thought. (The obscuration not exeeding 7 tenths of the width of the sun) proposes to substitute for it that of March 30, 433 BC..I would submit that it is quite impossible that all the events of the campaign as narated by Thucydides could have occurred before that time.We have the intent of the Thebans to surprise Plataea and its failure; the march of the Spartan army into Boeobia unto king Archidamus; the long and ineffectual seige of CEnoe; the slow march into Attica; the long encampment at Archarne; the final retreat of Archidanus, on finding he could not succeed on drawing the Athenians, restrained by Pericles into an engagement."
"It was only after the retreat had actually begun that the latter fitted out a naval force to ravage the coasts of the Peloponnesians, and it was at this embarkation of this that Pericles, according to Plutarch, held up his cloak to re-assure the pilot, frightened by the eclipse, and told him the only difference between that and the phenomenon was that something larger than his cloak caused the obscuration of the sun"
"The solar eclipse occurred during the first year of the Peloponnesian war" "It was only as the retreat had already begun" "the visibility of a few stars" "The obscuration was larger than his cloak" "Occurred earlier in the day" "before noon"
The Eclipse of Pericles. p.198. SAO/NASA Astrophysics Data System."Astronomers discover oldest known eclipse reference in 6,000-year-old Hindu text"
Eclipses can be sun miracles. Precession of the equinox changes, such as in Yao's canon, can change the zodiak forward or backward. This equals this eclipse on the spring equinox that may not be the assumed date. A sun miracle ten days before the spring equinox, April 1, 2315 BC, (the equinox was April 11, 2315 BC) made for a difference in Yao's Canon equaled a 1,400 years more recent in precession of the equinoxes.
The August 3, 431 total solar eclipse would be total north of Athens, but - "Ten digits are not enough to bring out stars" but if the location was further north, the stars would appear.
The path of totality is very far north of Greece:
If August 3, 431 BC is the correct solar eclipse, the chronology must nevertheless be brought some ten years more recent.
Artaxerxes died not in 424 BC, but seven years more recent in 417 BC. Artaxerxes reigned from 458 BC to 417 BC.
431 BC would be Artaxerxes' 34th year from 465 BC. But Xerxes died in his 20th year in 458 BC.
Thus, from 458 BC, 431 BC would be Artaxerxes' 27th year.
Possibly the eclipse record may be a sun miracle in 422 BC the noon day sun in Israel is the noon day sun in Athens, perhaps the new moon, Sunday, August 24, 422 BC to mark 50 year jubiles to Jesus beginning his ministry September 9, 29 AD, or October 7, 29 AD.
For the stars to come out this can only be a total solar eclipse or a sun miracle.
431 BC was in Artaxerxes' 27th year not his 34th year.
Thus, the solar eclipse record for August 3, 431 BC may be true, but the year of Artaxerxes must be his 27th year, not his 34th year.
If this record was for nine years more recent in 422 BC, this eclipse record may be a sun miracle.
422 BC was 450 years before Jesus speaking from Isaiah 61 in Luke 4 on the 10th day of the 7th month, on Yom Kippur, the day of Atonement, September 9, 29 AD or October 7, 29 AD, the day of Atonement.
A jubile year began with Yom Kippur, the 10th day, rather than on the first day, of the lunar month.
Thus, the significance of the 430th year in Exodus, 2737 BC - 430 years = 2307 BC Jacob enter Egypt on the new year that had backed up 430 / 4 = 107 days from July 16 that was April 1, 2307 BC and the Exodus the same date March 30, 1281 BC at the end of the Egyptian sothis calendar 1456 years.
Genesis 11:17 "And Eber lived after he begat Peleg four hundred and thirty years, and begat sons and daughters."
And other years that are recorded as 403 years but may be 430 years:
Genesis 11:13 "And Arphaxad lived after he begat Salah four hundred and three years, and begat sons and daughters."
Genesis 11:15 "And Salah lived after he begat Eber four hundred and three years, and begat sons and daughters."
The missing letters 300 + 300 leaving 400 + 30. See Judaism 101, Hebrew Alphabet. Thus, from the Sothis year 430 in 2307 BC to the end of the Sothis cycle is what was written. Yet the duration could be written in Hebrew 400 .. 30 as well. Thus, the confusion of the years 430: The captivity was 400 years, the last 400 years of the 1026 year Sojourn in Egypt.
Thus, perhaps the significance of the year 402 BC being 430 years before Jesus began his ministry on the day Yom Kippur, perhaps September 9, 29 AD, or October 7, 29 AD.
Nevertheless, the 430 years is 430 years sothis from 2737 BC = 2307 BC, and the end of the 430 years is the end of the sothis in 1281 BC.
The thirtieth year of the 50 year jubile was this very year 611 BC. Back from 591 BC 11 years of Zedekiah, then back 11 years of Joiakim is 613 BC. 31 years for Josiah = 644 BC to 613 BC. Amon reigned two years from 646 BC to 644 BC.
Manasseh 55 years to 645 BC = 55 years old from 700 BC = 12 years old when his father Hezekiah died in 688 BC. Then Jehoiachim's fifth year was 611 BC which also was the thirtieth year of the count of the fiftieth jubile ending September 7, 591 BC. Then Jehoiachim was taken in 610 BC which was the first year of Nebuchadnezzar, because Nebuchadnezzar's nineteenth year was the captivity in 591 BC.
Some years appear to overlap due to rounding.
"In his (King K'ing) 6th year (612 BC), a comet entered the Great Bear"
The Chinese Classics
Back 390 years from this 30th year of the 50 year jubile from 1241 BC: 611 BC + 390 = 1001 BC after Solomon died and in his son Rehoboam's 5th year; 1044 - 40 = 1004, 5th year Rehoboam = 1001 BC, and the kingdom was taken from Judah. Then 40 more years back to the beginning of the building of the Temple in Jerusalem in 1041 BC. From Solomon's first year in 1044 BC is his 38th year in 1007 BC. Thus, the 38 years of Jesus' life and 1007 BC be 1000 years before Jesus' birth. 390 + 40 = 430. In he 430th Sothis year, 2307 BC, Jacob and his sons came down to Egypt to sojourn.
2 Kings 24:1 "In his days Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon came up, and Jehoiakim became his servant three years: then he turned and rebelled against him."
3 years from 611 BC is 607 BC = 600 years to Jesus' birth in September 12, 7 BC.
2 Kings 24:12b "In the eighth year of the King of Babylon he took Jehoiachin prisoner."
This should be eleven years back from the captivity of Jerusalm in 591 BC. Back 11 years is 602 BC.
Nebuchadnezzar's 8th year = Zedekiah's first year in 602 BC. Nebucadnezzar's first year be 611 BC. Zedekiah's fifth year 597 BC, 390 years = 207 BC = 200 years to Jesus' birth, (390 + 40 = 430 years) + 40 years = 167 BC = 200 years to Jesus' sacrifice April 3, 33 AD, = the Greeks pollute the temple in 167 BC, and in 164 BC the Maccabees consecrate the temple.
This is the Grecian Era from 312 BC to 164 BC, not 159 years, not from 323 BC, but 148 years from 312 BC to 164 BC.
Counting from the sixth year of Alexander in 312 BC:
These are the wrong dates: Alexander was King of Macedonia in 336 BC, he was King of Egypt in 332 BC, King of Persia 330 BC and Lord of Asia 331 BC. Thus, counting from 330 BC to 323 BC are seven years.
The right dates are 11 years more recent.
Thus, Alexander the Great was King of Macedonia in 325 BC not 336 BC.
Alexander the Great may have died in his sixth year and that year be 312 BC and not 323 BC. Alexander the great reigned from Persia from 318 BC six years to 312 BC.
He was succeeded by his son Alexander IV that was born the year Alexander the Great died.
So if this counting from Alexander is from 329 BC, his sixth year his death in 323 BC. But if counting from 318 BC, Alexander's sixth year and death be in 312 BC.
Thus, Alexander the Great may have died 11 years more recent than 323 BC in this 312 BC. The same pattern from King Darius from 509 BC 32 years to Xerxes in 477 BC. Xerxes not from 486 BC but ten years more recent from 477 BC = the wall of Jerusalem built in his 20th year in 458 BC = 490 years to Jesus' sacrifice April 3, 33 AD.
"In his (King Yin's) second year, 312 BC, in the country of Ts'e, the ground where they measured the length of the sun's shadow lengthened more than ten cubits, and was elevated a cubit. Wei made Chang E its prime minister."
The Chinese Classics
The Seleucid Empire (323–64 B.C.)
Then the counting from the death of Alexander the Great, not 323 BC but 312 BC.
This ten year difference appears from Darius I who reigned not from 522 BC, but from 509 BC. Likewise his son Xerxes died not in 467 BC but in 458 BC. Then perhaps the correction is made at the death of Alexander the Great possibly in 312 BC instead fo 323 BC.
Like this 402 BC, there is a pattern of 400 years in the Bible.
Genesis 11:13 "And Arphaxad lived after he begat Salah four hundred and three years, and begat sons and daughters."
Genesis 11:15 "And Salah lived after he begat Eber four hundred and three years, and begat sons and daughters."
Genesis 11:17 "And Eber lived after he begat Peleg four hundred and thirty years, and begat sons and daughters."
Genesis 15:13 "And he said unto Abram, Know of a surety that thy seed shall be a stranger in a land that is not theirs, and shall serve them; and they shall afflict them four hundred years;"
Exodus 12:40 "Now the sojourning of the children of Israel, who dwelt in Egypt, was from the four hundred and thirty years."
Daniel 9:26 "And after threescore and two weeks 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."
62 X 7 = 434 years. From 402 BC are 434 years to Jesus' sacrifice April 3, 33 AD.
Adding these 6 generations from Noah's flood: 3307 BC one year flood to 3306 BC, 2 years to Arphaxad 35, Salah 30, Eber 34, Peleg 30, Rue 32, Serug 30, = 195 years. Abraham born 2607 BC when Terah 70, Terah born 2677 BC, Nahor 29 = 2707 BC, from the new Egyptian sothis cycle 2637 BC.
Arphaxad at 35 years = Jesus age when he began his ministry September/October of 29 AD because Jesus must have been born September 12, 7 BC.
"Serug grew up and dwelt in Ur of the Chaldees.. and took to himself a wife..in the thirty-sixth jubilee in the fifth week in the first year..She gave birth to Nahor, in the first year of this week..
'In the thirty-seventh jubilee, in the sixth week, in the first year of it he took to himself a wife..And she gave birth to Terah in the seventh year of this week.."
The Books of Enoch, p.316
Serug was born about the same time Ur was founded, about 2900 BC.
From Noah's flood in 3307 BC to Abraham's birth in 2607 BC are 700 years, about 23 generations, to travel south from the Aral Sea to the city of Ur.
"World's Oldest Alphabet Found on an Ancient Clay Gift Tag" from 2400 BC.
Abraham was born in this same year of the King of Ur, 2607 BC. Ur became the most prosperous city about this 2600 BC. Terah had left Ur after Abraham was born. Then Abraham left his father Terah at Haran when Terah died, on the way to the promised land, at 75 years of age, in the Egyptian sothis year 205 from 2737 BC, in 2532 BC.
Thus Nahor 37 X 49 = 1813 years; from 4568 BC = 2755 BC. Nahor may live to Egyptian Sothis year 119 = 2618 BC from about this 2755 BC = about 137 years.
Thus Terah 38 X 49 = 1862; from 4568 BC = 2707 BC = 2700 years before Jesus' birth in 7 BC. Terah may have lived 175 years to Egyptian Sothis year 205 from 2737 BC to 2532 BC.
+ 403 years = 3110 BC + this 195. Arphaxad in 3306 BC is 195 years to Serug in 3110 BC.
Thus, with this 403 year gap there is no missing years from Noah to Abraham.
From Noah's flood in 3307 BC to Abraham born 2607 BC are 700 years.
The 430 years could be an Egyptian sothis date = 2767 BC. That is the full sothis cycle 1460 years = 2737 BC, and 1430 years = 2767 BC. The third generation, Eber, 35 + 30 + 34 = 99 years. 3304 BC - 99 years = 3205 BC is 438 years to this 1,430th year in 2767 BC. Jacob entered Egypt in the 430th year, 2307 BC. The 430th year of Eber may have foretold Israel entering Egypt in the Egyptian Sothis year 430 from the new sothis in 2737 BC. The 400th year would equal 2797 BC and be 1000 years since the beginning of the Egyptian Sothis cycle in 4197 BC.
3307 BC flood to 3306 BC, Arphaxad born two years after = 3304 BC, lived 35 years to 3269 BC = 3300 years to Jesus' crucifixion in 33 AD. Joseph and Mary left Bethlehem in fear of Herod when Jesus was two years old. This 3304 BC of Arphaxad, 3307 BC the flood less one year to step out of the ark, less two years for Arphaxad to be born, may be like the 4 BC in April when Herod died, and Joseph and Mary returned to Nazareth with Jesus.
There was a 10 BC record, year 48 of cycle 60, of a comet whose description was exactly the same as Halley's comet in 12 BC. This ghost record in 10 BC seemed to be made up to accompany an earthquake that year as part of a bad omen.
Jesus must have been born about September 12, 7 BC two years after the nine suns appeared in China February 10, 9 BC on the Hebrew lunar day 17. Chinese dates are exact. Thus, we do not need to know how the Chinese astronomers got this date for this event, so long as the record of this event took place, the date should be correct. If this was a pattern of Noah's flood, then there should be a sun miracle the same lunar day 17, 150 days back from the Armenian Sothis new years July 11 = February 10. All described in Genesis 6, 7 and 8.
Two and a half orbits after February 10, 9 BC is the 17th day of the month, perhaps the seventh month, August 15, 7 BC; perhaps when Jesus was born.
Purim of Esther, the 13, 14 and 15th of the 12th month may be this February 10, 9 BC. The 15th Hebrew lunar day may be this same 17th day.
Esther 9:18 "But the Jews that were at Shushan assembled together on the thirteenth day thereof, and on the fourteenth thereof; and on the fifteenth day of the same they rested, and made it a day of feasting and gladness."
Arcturus would pass directly over Jerusalem in 16 BC or 18 BC when Herod began to rebuild the temple and the 49 year jubile. That is, Bethlehem is 4 miles south of Jerusalem. Arcturus passes 2,000 feet south a year. From 5 BC to 16 BC are eleven years; 11 X 2,000 feet = 22,000 feet. 22,000 feet divided by a mile of 5,280 feet is four miles.
Half an orbit before the 17th lunar day, February 10, 9 BC, is the 17th lunar day, August 17, 10 BC = the same date of Jesus' birth, the 17th lunar day of the seventh month, September 12, 7 BC. And this just three years before Jesus was born.
One year after Thursday, August 17, 10 BC is the new moon Saturday, August 17, 9 BC.
Then Jesus' birth also, the 17th day of the 7th month, the pattern from Noah's flood. And like Arphaxad was born two years after the flood, to be a type and pattern, Jesus must be born two and a half years after the sun miracle of February 10, 9 BC.
The sun miracle of February 10, 504 BC = the third day of Adar when the second temple was finished also equals February 10.
Note the February 10, 504 eclipse record at the bottom of this eclipse page. February 10, 504 BC was not a solar eclipse. It was not even a new moon, it was the third day of the lunar month of Adar. The year and day are of cycle 60, and thus the date is correct. A solar eclipse at noon in China is a solar eclipse at sunrise in Israel - only this was not a solar eclipse!
Year of reign 15, year of cycle 33, lunar month 3, day 48 of cycle 60. From King King''s first year in 518 BC 15th year is 510 BC. From 2636 BC to 510 BC is year 33 of cycle 60 is 510 BC.
Simply from King King's first year in 518 BC the 15th year cannot be 505 BC 518 BC - 14 years = 504 BC; 518 BC - 13 years = 505 BC. The year is the 15th year, and cannot be -13 years, but the current year the 15th year. Neither can year 33 of cycle 60 from 2636 BC be 505 BC but 504 BC.
Two solar eclipse records are not visible and are not eclipses: the solar eclipse for 591 BC is not visible, and the solar eclipses for 548 BC and 551 BC are not visible. The solar eclipse September 7, 591 BC is the fall of Jerusalem - not an eclipse. The solar eclipse of 644 BC is when Manasseh King of Judah was 55 from 600 BC, and must be a sun miracle 38 years before 507 BC that equals the 38 years of Jesus' perfect life in reverse to his birth about September 12, 7 BC.
551 BC solar eclipse in the tenth month = a sun miracle on Sunday/Monday October 27, 551 BC which was lunar day 17. October is usually the eighth month. Chinese new year beginning in January = the 10th month in October. Jesus was born on the 7th month the 17th day = October 17, 551 BC.
549 BC solar eclipes for day 1 of cycle 60 in the 7th month = June 19, 549 BC does work. The next eclipse 30 days later does not work:
The first lunar day of the seventh month may be this July 18, 549 BC = Rosh Hashana.
Day 30 of 60 in the eighth month of the next year in 548 BC does not match even a new moon.
Sunday, May 14, 548 BC = Pentecost = day 30 of cycle 60 = day 50 from the Passover Sunday, March 26, 548 BC:
Year 557 BC month 8 and day 54 of cycle 60 = Friday, October 24, 557 BC was Yom Kippur in Israel. 557 BC = 550 years to Jesus' birth September 12, 7 BC. 557 BC was a 49 year jubile to Jesus' sacrifice April 3, 33 AD.
The solar eclipse record for 644 BC in month 5 does not match any solar eclipse. Month 5 may be in May the month of Pentecost.
Thus, James Legge in the Chinese Classics was right to point out the solar eclipses for 644 BC, 591 BC, 557 BC, 551 BC and 548 BC were no eclipses.
During a reverse orbit there may be no solar eclipses.
Nevertheless, a solar eclipse on earth may be made to match normal eclipse paths in a reverse orbit.
Likewise 507 BC = 500 years to 7 BC, was the second year of Darius when the foundation of the second temple was laid. Likewise, the sun miracle of February 10, 504 BC was the sixth year of Darius, the third day of the month of Adar when the temple was finished.
Perhaps the 430 years were fulfilled with Jacob entering Egypt in the Egyptian Sothis year 430, 2307 BC, 2300 years before the birth of Christ in 7 BC.
There are some traces of solar activity in these early years. Physical evidence of sun movement is hard to find. The traces of solar cycles most likely are not related to sun movements. Nevertheless, here is a sample of the results of solar research:
From the Sun in Time:
A Millennial Solar Cycle? "The average period of oscillation for the strong salinity cycles is ~2500 varve yr. Increased variance associated with this millennial cycle is distributed over a band of the spectrum corresponding to periodicities between 1800 to 3000 yr, with the maximum spectral density somewhere between 2500 and 2700 varve years (Anderson 1982)..a 2400 year cycle has been identified in C14 in tree rings.."
The Sun in Time, p.561.
"the carbonate profile of the GT89/3 core (starting at 1690 BC) and the tree-ring data have been folded and superposed. ..radio carbon series have 3 well-defined, separate maxima at periods of about 179 yr, 205 yr, and 226 yr.."
The Sun in Time, p.572.
The 400 years of slavery in Egypt began in 1681 BC to the Exodus in 1281 BC. The Shang dynasty in China began in this 1677 BC also.
The 400 years = 1681 BC to 1281 BC. 1460 years of the sothis calendar less 400 years = 1060 years = the calendar backed up 265 days, 4 years a day = 100 more days in 400 years = 365 days.
This Egyptian sothis year from 2737 BC = year 1060 = 1681 BC = 265 days the new year backed up to October 26, 1681 BC. If the Egyptian end of the year was 5 days after July 16 instead of 5 days before July 16, then this 265 days new year would be October 20, 1681 BC = the same date October 7, 29 AD = Israel new years on Yom Kippur when Jesus spoke from Isaiah 61 in Luke 4 on Yom Kippur on October 7, 29 AD.
1681 years / 128 = 13 days the calendar had drifted. Therefore, this October 7, 29 AD in 1681 BC was equal to October 20, 1681 BC. The jubile year would begin on the tenth day of the seventh month, Yom Kippur, instead of the first day of the seventh month. Both the Egyptian new years and the Israel new years on the same date in October.
From the spring equinox April 2, 1681 BC to the fall equinox, October 3, 1681 BC.
400 years from the new moon March 30, 1681 BC to the full moon March 30, 1281 BC.
Some isotopes have a half life of 2.3 minutes, some millions of years, C14 has a half life of 5730 years. Thus, it may be possible to detect missing time very accurately one day. However, there is no missing time at all. Only within a reverse orbit, of one or two years, may there be missing time up to 48 or 96 hours.
The pursuit of physical evidence may be pointless. There may be no physical evidence. The best evidence is in the Bible, God's word.
Daniel 8:14 "And he said unto me, Unto two thousand and three hundred days; then shall the sanctuary be cleansed."
Back 2300 days from Jesus' sacrifice April 3, 33 AD is the full moon Friday, December 13, 26 AD when Jesus was 32 years old. Hanukkah was December 12, 164 BC. Jesus was born about September 12, 7 BC and conceived nine months earlier about December 12, 8 BC.
Jesus began his three and a half year ministry at 35 years of age, either September 9, 29 AD or October 7, 29 AD to his crucifixion April 3, 33 AD.
Ezekiel 40:1 "In the five and twentieth year of our captivity, in the beginning of the year, in the tenth day of the month, in the fourteenth year after that the city was smitten, in the selfsame day the hand of the LORD was upon me, and brought me thither.
40:2 In the visions of God brought he me into the land of Israel, and set me upon a very high mountain, by which was as the frame of a city on the south.
40:3 And he brought me thither, and, behold, there was a man, whose appearance was like the appearance of brass, with a line of flax in his hand, and a measuring reed; and he stood in the gate."
The High Priest went into the Holiest of Holies on this tenth day of the first month of the civil year in September.
"the self same day" from the destruction of Jerusalem the seventh day of the fifth month, September 7, 591 BC - the 14th year 577 BC.
The civil year began in September. The tenth day of the seventh month in 577 BC was September 7, 577 BC = "the self same day" September 7, 591 BC.
The tenth day of the first month of spring began the four days the children of Israel were to bring the lamb into their homes till the 14th day they sacrificed the lamb for the Passover.
Jesus entered Jerusalem on Sunday, March 29, 33 AD on Palm Sunday.
Sunday, February 4, 1241 BC was this tenth day of the first month.
Sunday, March 13, 577 BC was this tenth day of the first month of spring.
"the self same day" the 10th day of the beginning of the civil year in September. The destruction of Jerusalem on the seventh day of the fifth month, September 7, 591 BC = the same time of the year as this tenth day of the seventh month of September.
The tenth day of the seventh month in this 14th year from the destruction of Jerusalem, September 7, 591 BC, is September 7, 577 BC = the "self same day" September 7.
Thus, counting from the 49 year jubile in 605 BC less two years, and from the 50 year jubile in 591 BC = the same 577 BC.
From the 49 year jubile in 605 BC are 14 years to the 50 year jubile and captivity in 591 BC. From the crossing of the Jordan in the jubile year 1241 BC are 14 years to 1227 BC = the first year of emperor Te-sin in China. From 1241 BC are 21 years to 1221 BC = 50 year jubiles to Jesus speaking from Isaiah 61 in Luke 4.
The 49 year jubile counting from 1242 BC and the 50 year jubile counting from Joshua's long day in 1241 BC.
Back from Jesus' sacrifice April 3, 33 AD 2300 days = this December 14, 26 AD = the 14th day of the month = the full moon.
Back 2300 days from Hanukkah, Saturday, December 12, 164 BC, is the new moon Wednesday, August 27, 170 BC, to begin the seventh month, the day Rosh Hashanah.
Daniel 8:14 "And he said unto me, Unto two thousand and three hundred days; then shall the sanctuary be cleansed."
Thus, from the abomination that maketh desolate to the sanctuary being cleansed are these 2300 days.
2300 days back from the full moon = Passover = April 6, 568 BC is the full moon December 16, 575 BC. Ezekiel wrote from the time of Daniel.
Nebucadnezzar reigned 43 years from 611 BC to 568 BC. Perhaps there was a sun miracle in 568 BC taken as an omen to remove Nebucadnezzar.
Pharaoh Amasis II began his reign not in 570 BC, but 4 years further back, like Jerusalem was destroyed in 591 BC not 587 BC.
Thus Pharaoh Amasis II began his reign in 574 BC, in Nebucadnezzar's 37th year.
King Ling began as emperor over China in 570 BC.
2300 days back from the full moon March 22, 545 BC is the full moon, December 1, 552 BC. There was a solar eclipse record for the tenth month in 552 BC or 551 BC in China that was not an eclipse, but may be a sun miracle. The tenth month, 17th of cycle 60, was September 19, 552 BC was the new moon, but no solar eclipse. December 552 BC could be this tenth Chinese month counting from spring. Or September be the tenth month counting from December.
This year 20 of King Lin from 570 BC is 551 BC. There was a solar eclipse on day 47 of cycle, August 20, 552 BC.
Here you see a solar eclipse for August 20, 552 BC on day 47 of cycle 60, on the 19th year of King Lin.
The new moon, the first day of the first month, was Sunday, March 16, 551 BC.
There were eclipse records when was no solar eclipse, in September of 551 BC and in July 548 BC:
No solar eclipse on day 17 of cycle 60 = September 14, 551 BC - not even close to a new moon.
No solar eclipse on day 30 of cycle 60 = July 13, 548 BC - not even close to a new moon.
Ezekiel 29:11 "No foot of man shall pass through it, nor foot of beast shall pass through it, neither shall it be inhabited forty years.
29:12 And I will make the land of Egypt desolate in the midst of the countries that are desolate, and her cities among the cities that are laid waste shall be desolate forty years: and I will scatter the Egyptians among the nations, and will disperse them through the countries.
29:13 Yet thus saith the Lord GOD; At the end of forty years will I gather the Egyptians from the people whither they were scattered:"
Forty years from the destruction of Jerusalem in 591 BC is this 551 BC.
Jeremiah 31:17 "And there is hope in thine end, saith the LORD, that thy children shall come again to their own border."
Cyrus reigned 30 years from 548 BC to 518 BC. Amel-Marduk riegned three years from 551 BC to 548 BC.
Nebuchadnezzar II may have reigned 43 years, not from 605 BC to 562 BC, but 43 years from 611 BC to 568 BC = 100 years to Jesus' sacrifice April 3, 33 AD.
Then there be a gap of 12 years.
Nebu to 561 BC; 2 years for Evilmerodach to 559 BC, 4 years for Neriglissar to 555 BC, 17 years for Nabonidus to 538 BC and Cyrus the Great 30 years to 518 BC,
2 Kings 25:27 "And it came to pass in the seven and thirtieth year of the captivity of Jehoiachin king of Judah, in the twelfth month, on the seven and twentieth day of the month, that Evilmerodach king of Babylon in the year that he began to reign did lift up the head of Jehoiachin king of Judah out of prison;"
Thus, 37 years from 591 BC is 554 BC = the death of Nebuchadnezzar II. 37 years from the captivity of King Zedekiah in 591 BC and not of King Jehoiachin in 605 BC
Then Cyrus reigned 9 years in Babylon from 527 BC to 518 BC. This leaves two years for Evilmerodach king of Babylon to 552 BC,.
Then four years (maybe seven years because the destruction of Jerusalem was in 591 BC and not 587 BC a difference of four years) for Neriglissar king of Babylon to 545 BC, and 17 years for Nabonidus king of Babylon to 527 BC, and Cyrus the Great 9 years to 518 BC, and Cambyses II 8 years to 509 BC and Darius the Great.
The full moon on March 11, 522 BC Bardiya ascended the throne from Cambyses. This should be the full moon and the Passover on March 16, 509 BC.
On the 10 day moon, September 29, 522 BC Bardiya was defeated. This should be the 10th day and Yom Kippur, September 4, 509 BC.
There could be a sun miracle on the Passover and half an orbit later on the 22 day moon of the 7th month, the last day of tabernacles.
There may be a sun miracle on the 1st day of the first month and half an orbit later on the 10th day of the 7th month, September 4, 509 BC on Yom Kippur.
This 545 BC begins the 17 year reign of Nabonidus to Cyrus the Great in 527 BC.
From Nabonidus in 545 BC to the second year of Darius in 507 BC are 38 years; pointing to the 38.5 years of Jesus' life.
"His (King King) 1st year was ting-sze (54th of cycle 60 =, B.C. 543).
The Chinese Classics, p.165.
Thus, perhaps a sun miracle in 545 BC that the Chinese took as an omen for a new emperor.
From 591 BC to 552 BC are 39 years; again the 39 years may point to the 38.5 years of Jesus' life.
The 17th day in September could be like Jesus' birth the 17th day of the seventh month. From the captivity in 591 BC to the first year of Cyrus is more than 40 years.
That is, Cyrus was King of Persia not from 559 BC but 13 years more recent from 546 BC = 545 BC = 38 years to the second year of Darius when the foundation of the temple was laid in 507 BC.
Cyrus was King of Babylon not from 539 BC but from 527 BC 9 years to 518 BC and the first year of King King in China.
Cyrus was King of Persia from 559 BC. Because Darius the Great reigned from 509 BC and not 522 BC = 13 years more recent, Cyrus must also reign from 545 BC. Thus, 545 BC was 500 and 38 years from Jesus' birth in September of 7 BC. The 38 years of Jesus' perfect life in reverse to his birth. Many sun miracles were on years ending in X45 BC, such as the solar eclipse record of 645 BC in China that was not an eclipse, at the death of King Manasseh.
Cyrus may have begun his reign in 552 BC perhaps on the omen of a sun miracle that God meant to be for that purpose. 552 BC was the 40th year from the fall of Jerusalem September 7, 591 BC.
Nevertheless, with the chronology 13 years more recent, Cyrus may have begun his reign in 545 BC. Then these verses also may be written in 545 BC. There are 19 verses and 23 matches to Cyrus in 2 Chronicles, Isaiah, Ezra and Daniel.
Isaiah 44:28 "That saith of Cyrus, He is my shepherd, and shall perform all my pleasure: even saying to Jerusalem, Thou shalt be built; and to the temple, Thy foundation shall be laid."
Isaiah 45:1 "Thus saith the LORD to his anointed, to Cyrus, whose right hand I have holden, to subdue nations before him; and I will loose the loins of kings, to open before him the two leaved gates; and the gates shall not be shut;"
2 Chronicles 36:22 "Now in the first year of Cyrus king of Persia, that the word of the LORD spoken by the mouth of Jeremiah might be accomplished, the LORD stirred up the spirit of Cyrus king of Persia, that he made a proclamation throughout all his kingdom, and put it also in writing, saying,
36:23 Thus saith Cyrus king of Persia, All the kingdoms of the earth hath the LORD God of heaven given me; and he hath charged me to build him an house in Jerusalem, which is in Judah. Who is there among you of all his people? The LORD his God be with him, and let him go up."
2300 days back from the full moon, April 10, 1168 BC, emperor Wu's first year, was December 21, 1175 BC. The decisive battle on day 29 of cycle 60 January 1, 1274 BC = the last day of the moon's waning before the new moon.
"the problem the chronologers had was to find a year near near the supposed date of Woo-wang, which should commence with the day sin-maou (day 28 of cycle 60)."
"the whole lunation be before the winter solstice (in 1174 BC the winter solstic be 10 days more recent than December 21 and be this January 1, 1174 BC)
1174 BC / 128 = 10 days = the winter soltice on December 21 would be on January 1, 1174 BC.
Or, 2300 days back from Wu's sixth year and last year, as emperor, April 10, 1168 BC to Wu's first year December 21, 1175 BC.
Ten days later, after December 21, 1175 BC was day 29 of cycle 60 and Wu's victory in January 1, 1174 BC.
"and entered with the bright appointment of Heaven"
"Then the duke of Chow greatly sustained the decree which Wan and Woo had received, through the space of seven years."
The Chinese Classics, The Announcement concerning Lo, p.452.
Thus probably a sun miracle in 1175 BC in the 12th month seven years to a sun miracle in 1168 BC; the first year of Ching in the spring = 1200 years to Jesus' sacrifice.
Wu's 12th year, or 13th year, from his father king Wan's death in 1186 BC was in 1174 BC.
Wu's second year as emperor over China was in 1173 BC.
January 2, 1174 BC should be the new moon, and Wu's victory. Then half an orbit later the sun move back July 8, 1174 BC.
From Jacob entering Egypt in the second year of famine, 2307 BC to Jesus' birth in 7 BC, are 2300 years.
2300 days back from Jesus' sacrifice April 3, 33 AD is Saturday, December 15, 25 AD, the fifth day of the lunar month = 7 years 110 days back. Jerusalem fell September 7, 591 BC on Saturday, the seventh day of the fifth month.
2300 days from Jesus' birth September 12, 7 BC = January 1, 1 AD = Anno Domini = the Year of our Lord in Latin, the calendar we use today based on Jesus' birth.
Julius Caesar started the Julian calendar the new moon January 1, 45 BC. March 15, 45 BC was the Passover, the 15th day of the third month when there was a sun miracle, darkness at noon, for one or three hours, like there was to be on Jesus' crucifixion noon, the 15th day of the third month, April 3, 33 AD = 38 years of Jesus' life in reverse to Jesus' birth September 12, 7 BC.
Hanukkah was December 12, 164 BC. Jesus born September 12, 7 BC means he must have been conceived in December of 8 BC.
Ezekiel 33:21 "And it came to pass in the twelfth year of our captivity, in the tenth month, in the fifth day of the month, that one that had escaped out of Jerusalem came unto me, saying, The city is smitten"
The tenth month is December = Dec = 10. Thus, December 15, 25 AD is the fifth day of the tenth month = Ezekiel 33:21
There was a cold period on earth due to the sun between 3200 BC and 2800 BC.
There was a climatic optimum prior to 4000 BP. BP = before present using radio carbon dating = 1950 AD = 2000 BC.
There was a cold period from 750 BC to 400 BC.
The Sun in Time, Atmospheric C Variation Spectrum.
King Uzziah died in 751 BC. King Ngan was made emperor of China in 400 BC.
Thus from our 2000 AD, 2300 + 2300 years ago = 2600 BC = the year of the sun miracle, 2607 BC at Abraham's birth.
There were several sun miracles from 2315 BC to 2000 BC recorded in the Chinese Classics.
Noah's flood, and the sun rising in the west and setting in the east by Jewish tradition, in year 600 Armenian Sothis must occur 3307 BC.
There were three kings before Zedekiah with similar sounding names that seem to be incorrectly recorded in the Bible. Jehoiachin was taken in his eighth year of his life, not the eighth year of his reign and from 615 BC. Thus, we see in his fifth year of captivity was 611 BC the 30th year counting towards the 50th jubile year in 591 BC.
- Then, September 7, 591 BC must be the captivity of Jerusalem, in the fifth month, seventh day, of the fiftieth jubile year.
Daniel 9:1 "In the first year of Darius the son of Ahasuerus, of the seed of the Medes, which was made king over the realm of the Chaldeans;
9:2 In the first year of his reign I Daniel understood by books the number of the years, whereof the word of the LORD came to Jeremiah the prophet, that he would accomplish seventy years in the desolations of Jerusalem.
Darius the son of Xerxes = Ahasuerus, should be Darius II from 416 BC = 7 years more recent than 423 BC. Or 11 years more recent, in 412 BC.
Likewise, the death of Alexander the Great not 323 BC but 11 years more recent, 312 BC. That is, 4 more years more recent than this 7 year adjustment.
Likewise, the death of Hyranicus not 104 BC, but 110 BC, That is, six years more recent.
Hanukkah December 12, 164 BC remains the same.
Darius II first year not 423 BC, but seven years more recent in 416 BC, and his 7th year be the 49 year jubile 409 BC = 63 X 7 years to Jesus' sacrifice, April 3, 33 AD or 9 X 49 = 441 years; from 409 BC to April 3, 33 AD.
This may be Darius the Mede at the end of Daniel's life.
Mede was a part of the Achaemenid empire founded by Cyrus the Great who became king of Persia- not in 539 BC but in 527 BC nine years to his death in 518 BC.
Thus, Darius II ruled Mede for 20 years from 416 BC to 396 BC.
Darius II may be Darius the Mede that became King at 62 years.
Dates from this period begin to be 11 years more recent and not just 7 years more recent.
180 days after their departure from Sardis, Tuesday, September 3, 401 BC = Monday, September 3, 390 BC = 11 years more recent. Cyrus' troops approached Cunaxa..by mid-afternoon the armies were ready..it was already getting dark, struck by a spear and again from behind, Cyrus II died instantly.
Persians, the Age of Great Kings, p.311.
There was a solar eclipse November 26, 390 BC reaching Persia:
Cyrus the younger died, not the fourth lunar day, September 3, 401 BC, but eleven years more recent, on the fourth lunar day, September 3, 390 BC.
Likewise, Darius II be King 10 years more recent than 423 BC, in 413 BC. Darius II would be about 62 years old when he became King in 413 BC, and be born in 474 BC.
Daniel 5:31 "And Darius the Median took the kingdom, being about threescore and two years old."
Darius II was about 62 in 413 BC. Darius II reigned 19 years from 413 BC to 494 BC.
Then Daniel may have lived to 413 BC and Darius II be this king Darius the Mede.
There are 62 weeks of years from 402 BC to Jesus' sacrifice April 3, 33 AD.
Darius I reigned from July 509 BC to October 478 BC / 477 BC. Darius I was 20 when he began to reign, according to Herodotus, just a year too young to serve in the army. If Darius I was 62 in 509 BC he would be 94 in 477 BC - but Darius I died at 64 years of age. Darius I reigned not 35 years, but more accurately 31 years, from 509 BC to 477 BC.
Darius I was supposed to be born in 550 BC and died 64 years later in 486 BC. Darius I would be 32 when he became king and reigned 32 years to 64 years old. Thus, Darius I could not be 62 when he became king, and Darius II may instead be this 62 year old new king.
If Darius II lived to 71 years, and he began his reign of 19 years in 413 BC, he would be 52 years of age in 413 BC.
The Peloponnesian war from 431 BC to April 25, 404 BC. That may be an 11 year correction to end April 25, 393 BC from 420 BC. The 50 year jubile from 421 BC to Jesus' fulfillment on September 9, 29 AD, or October 7, 29 AD.
The Passover Friday, April 23, 404 BC = thus the sun may have been darkened at noon be the omen to end the war, only there be an 11 year correction.
The Passover, Thursday, April 22, 393 BC may be the correct date.
Darius II quelled a rebellion by the Medes in 409 BC that should be seven years more recent = 402 BC.
Darius II died on the full moon, and Passover, Thursday, April 6, 397 BC, or 11 years more recent, Thursday, April 22, 393 BC - not in 404 BC.
Daniel 9:25 "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: the street shall be built again, and the wall, even in troublous times."
Then, 62 weeks from 402 BC = April 3, 33 AD.
Daniel 9:1 "In the first year of Darius the son of Ahasuerus, of the seed of the Medes, which was made king over the realm of the Chaldeans;"
Daniel 9:26 "And after threescore and two weeks 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. "
In King Wei-Leeh's 17th year from 424 BC = 407 BC.
"T'een Poo put to death his great officer Kung-sun Sun"
The Chinese Classics, The Annals of the Bamboo Books, p.169
You can see the officer's name Kung-sun Sun is the depiction of the character for Sun in Chinese. In the middle of the column, the 8th character down, a character for house above the character for sun, for year 17 above; the character again in Note 15:
Daniel 11:1 "Also I in the first year of Darius the Mede, even I, stood to confirm and to strengthen him."
Daniel 12:13 "But go thou thy way till the end be: for thou shalt rest, and stand in thy lot at the end of the days."
"for thou shalt rest" Daniel may have lived to be 205 years old, or 215 years old, or even this 230 years, of Adam, from 637 BC to 407 BC.
From the Septuagint:
Genesis 5:3 "And Adam lived two hundred and thirty years and he begat a son after his own form, and after his own image, and he called his name Seth."
Velikovsky writes: "In Ezra's time the high priest appears to have been Jonathon, son or grandson of Eliashib, whereas in the days of Nehemiah the office of high priest belonged to Eliashib..Ezra came to Jerusalem not in the seventh year of Ataxerxes I but in the seventh year of Artaxerxes II, sixty years later...Ezra 10:16 to study = l'drosh = Darius in Hebrew..the scribe may have failed to understand how Darius the Great could be referred to in this context."
Ages in Chaos, III Peoples of the Sea, The Basest of the Kingdoms, p.167
Darius II died not in 404 BC, but probably seven or eleven years more recent. Then Artaxerxes ll after him, reigned not from 404 BC but from 393 BC or from 397 BC. Artaxerxes II seventh year would then be 390 BC or 387 BC = 60 weeks to Jesus' sacrifice, 420 years from 388 BC to April 3, 33 AD.
"His 10th year, 390 BC, was Ke-ch'ow, the first year of K'ing, the duke Hwan of Tsin. In his fifteenth year (386 BC) the prince of Wei died, having enjoyed his dignity 50 years. There was a great wind, and it was dusk at noon. He, the oldest son of the duke of Tsin, fled away. In his 16th year, yih-wei = 32 = 385 BC. That is, year 32 of cycle 60 from 2636 BC, the 1st year of Keih.."
The Chinese Classics, The Annals of the Bamboo Books, p.170.
The solar eclipse of November 26, 390 BC may have been the omen to make K'ing, duke Hwan of Tsin.
There was no solar eclipse seen from China in 386 BC, only November 26, 390 BC and July 3, 382 BC.
The solar eclipse November 26, 390 BC would partially cover the sun at noon in China, total in southern China, and the record belong to the previous line in year 10 not year 15:
"His (emperor Ngan) first year was kang-shin (17th of cycle 60 from 2636 BC) 400 BC.
A sun miracle in 402 BC may have been the omen for the Chinese to make Ngan emperor.
Thus, a sun miracle the Chinese may have taken as an omen to change emperors = exactly 62 weeks to Jesus' sacrifice from 402 BC.
From King Ngan's first year 62 weeks to Jesus' sacrifice April 3, 33 AD; 14 years, 60 weeks, is this 15th year = 387 BC. "dusk at noon" may equal a sun miracle. The darkest cloudiest day is five times brighter than the brightest office - this is a fact. So "dusk at noon" possibly a sun miracle.
Amos 8:9 "And it shall come to pass in that day, saith the Lord GOD, that I will cause the sun to go down at noon, and I will darken the earth in the clear day:"
The Hebrew word for noon was called double light "the sun to go down at noonH6672".
H6672 צֹהַר tsôhar tso'-har From H6671; a light (that is, window); dual double light, that is, noon: - midday, noon (-day, -tide), window. Total KJV occurrences: 24
There was a solar eclipse in China, November 26, 390 BC, that could have dimmed the noon day sun enough to notice:
Like the day dawned twice in 894 BC 3d of cycle 60, and not the solar eclipse of August 24, 897 BC the same three or four years difference between 896 BC and 890 BC cannot be a solar eclipse.
Thus, the month of the jubile - the end of the 50th year at Yom Kippur, was November 8, 591 BC, just two months after the captivity. Then the next jubile would start in the beginning of the 50th year, September 15, 472 BC. Then the jubile, 50th year, would be from September 22 BC = the next jubile 50 years later on August/September/October 29 AD because there is no year 0.
Thus, September 29 AD - September 30 AD should be the year of the Jubile. September 23 BC should begin the 49th year. 49 year cycles counted from year 49, 1242 BC come to Jesus' crucifixion in 33 AD. Josephus gave the fallow year 49 from September 23 BC to September 22 BC. Then the jubile, the fiftieth year, from September 22 BC to September 21 BC. Thus, Jesus spoke from Isaiah 61 August/September 29 AD to begin the jubile.
Luke 6:21 "Blessed are ye that hunger now: for ye shall be filled. Blessed are ye that weep now: for ye shall laugh."
The 49th year was a fallow year and 50th year was also a fallow year. Thus, those that were keeping the law hungered. Those that would weep when Jesus was crucified would be glad to see him alive after the resurrection.
The Hebrew word for blessed is asher, meaning: strait, level, happy.
Deuteronomy 33:29 "HappyH835 art thou, O Israel:"
H835 אֶשֶׁר 'esher eh'-sher From H833; happiness; only in masculine plural construction as interjection, how happy!: - blessed, happy. Total KJV occurrences: 45
Gesenius Hebrew Lexicon, 1849. p.97
1. Pr. To be straight, right,
i.q. No 2, especially of a way, and then also what is upright, erect, whence comes the significance to be firm, strong, in the Talmud.
2. To go straight forward, and generally to go on, to advance, Proverbs 9:6.
3. To go well, to prosper, to be happy;
Piel to cause to go straight, to guide right, Proverbs 23:19, Isaiah 1:17 lead right the oppressor, i.e. guide.
Proverbs 9:6 "Forsake the foolish, and live; and go in the way of understanding."
Proverbs 23:19 "Hear thou, my son, and be wise, and guide thine heart in the way."
Isaiah 1:17 "Learn to do well; seek judgment, relieve the oppressed, judge the fatherless, plead for the widow."
The Greek word for blessed is markarios, meaning: enlarged, fortunate, blessed, happy.
There would also be hunger when waiting for the sun to rise, even they may have made sacrifice.
"From yi-mao (day 52) to early next morning there was fog, then three flames (a time word) ate the sun, big stars were seen."
Heji 11506
Exodus 10:22 "And Moses stretched forth his hand toward heaven; and there was a thick darkness in all the land of Egypt three days:"
Job 9:7 "Which commandeth the sun, and it riseth not; and sealeth up the stars."
Job 30:28 "I went mourning without the sun: I stood up, and I cried in the congregation."
Luke 19:41 "And when he was come near, he beheld the city, and wept over it,
19:42 Saying, If thou hadst known, even thou, at least in this thy day, the things which belong unto thy peace! but now they are hid from thine eyes.
"If thou hadst known" - these jubiles, the 49 year and the 50 year jubiles pointed to this day of Jesus' ministry. Josephus wrote there were records of sun miracles in the Temple. The scrolls of the Essenes wrote that in the last days the people would forget the year of the jubile.
The Koreans have a festival Chu Suk meaning big center from a book written in 32 AD by Kim Bu Sik. It is a festival of the night that lasts three days that falls about this August 15, the full moon August 9, 32 AD, the last quarter moon Friday, August 15, 32 AD.
The last quarter moon would be rising in China after sunset on Israel. This is a festival of the moon at night and this would be midnight in China. The moon would look blood red from China.
The Chinese counted the days after the solstices and before the equinoxes. Also, August 15 cannot be mistaken because it is about the center of the Chinese year.
Each season began 45 days before = the winter was 45 days before the winter solstice to 45 days after the winter solstice. Likewise, the spring began 45 days before the spring equinox, the summer began 45 days before the summer solstice, the fall began 45 days before the autumn equinox.
The Chinese calendar was lunar. So, lunar dates would approximate these 45 days.
Chu Suk was meant to be on the full moon. October 7, 32 AD was the full moon = half an orbit - 178 days to Jesus' sacrifice April 3, 33 AD.
Korea began to record astronomical events from about 200 BC.
Korea has one of the best responses to the Gospel.
We use the same Gregorian calendar from 1 AD on. So the Chinese matched their calendar with ours. The date is exact. Perhaps there was a sun miracle, not August 16, 32 AD, but in 29 AD on the 13th Chinese lunar day = September 9, 29 AD day, not the 15th day, as recorded by this Kim Bu Sik. The Chinese lunar day is counted from when the moon passes by the sun. The Hebrew lunar day is counted from the moon's first visibility two days later.
The 10th lunar day of the seventh Hebrew month would be Friday, September 9, 29 AD, or October 7, 29 AD. This Friday, September 9 or October 7 would be Yom Kippur when Jesus would speak from Isaiah 61 on the 50th year jubile. There could be both a long night, then a long day, followed by a bright short day. Thus, in Isaiah 9 light is sprung up.
Half an orbit before Friday, September 9, 29 AD is the Hebrew new moon, March 7, 29 AD.
Half an orbit before Friday, October 7, 29 AD is the Hebrew new moon, April 5, 29 AD.
Isaiah 9:1 "Nevertheless the dimness shall not be such as was in her vexation, when at the first he lightly afflicted the land of Zebulun and the land of Naphtali, and afterward did more grievously afflict her by the way of the sea, beyond Jordan, in Galilee of the nations.
9:2 The people who walked in darkness have seen a great light. On those who lived in the land of deep shadows, light has shined."
John 7:52 "They answered and said unto him, Art thou also of Galilee? Search, and look: for out of Galilee ariseth no prophet."
Jonah, Elijah and Micah were from Galilee.
Joshua asked God both to stop the sun in the middle of the sky and to dim the sun.
Or, this was a normal day and God made the sun to revolve around the earth with earth's rotation for 12 or 24 hours. The noon sun in Hebrew is called double light "tsohar" H6672 in Amos 8:9. Then God may dim the noon day sun = the Hebrew to Damam, to dim and stop the sun.
Joshua 10:12 "Then spake Joshua to the LORD in the day when the LORD delivered up the Amorites before the children of Israel, and he said in the sight of Israel, Sun, stand thou still upon Gibeon; and thou, Moon, in the valley of Ajalon."
The Douay-Rheims Bible:
Josue 10:12 "Then Josue spake to the Lord, in the day that he delivered the Amorrhite in the sight of the children of Israel, and he said before them: Move not, O sun, toward Gabaon, nor thou, moon, toward the valley of Ajalon."
Joshua 10:13 "And the sun stood still, and the moon stayed, until the people had avenged themselves upon their enemies. Is not this written in the book of Jasher? So the sun stood still in the midst of heaven, and hasted not to go down about a whole day."
Leviticus 10:3 "Then Moses said unto Aaron, This is it that the LORD spake, saying, I will be sanctified in them that come nigh me, and before all the people I will be glorified. And Aaron held his peace."
"peace" = silent = from the sun.
Deuteronomy 32:43 "Rejoice, O ye nations, with his people: for he will avenge the blood of his servants, and will render vengeance to his adversaries, and will be merciful unto his land, and to his people."
"avenged" = avenge.
Doublet Catchwords in the Leningrad Codex. p.49.
Still = damam = dim.
H1826 דָּמַם dâmam daw-mam' A primitive root (compare H1724, H1820); to be dumb; by implication to be astonished, to stop; also to perish: - cease, be cut down (off), forbear, hold peace, quiet self, rest, be silent, keep (put to) silence, be (stand), still, tarry, wait. Total KJV occurrences: 30
H5358 נָקַם nâqam naw-kam' A primitive root; to grudge, that is, avenge or punish: - avenge (-r, self), punish, revenge (self), X surely, take vengeance. Total KJV occurrences: 35
The following verse in the Hebrew New Testament uses the same Hebrew word "damam" for be still.
Mark 4:39 "And he arose, and rebuked the wind, and said unto the sea, Peace, be still. And the wind ceased, and there was a great calm."
You can see the Hebrew word for still on the far left, damam, just before the exclamation mark ! This is the word both Joshua and Jesus used in their command.
The second word below to the right is Hereg, meaning to die, also before an exclamation mark !
Inorder to leave the same daily coral line in the sea the sun must be dimmed while it stood at the noon position. Amos 8:9 the noon day sun is written double light.
Amos 8:9 "And it shall come to pass in that day, saith the Lord GOD, that I will cause the sun to go down at noon, and I will darken the earth in the clear day:"
Noon = double light
Then, if this battle of Midian of Gideon is Joshua's long day, this noon day sun may be dimmed and equal this dimness in Isaiah.
Psalm 84:11" For the LORD God is a sun and shield: the LORD will give grace and glory: no good thing will he withhold from them that walk uprightly."
That may mean the LORD shielded the sun when he made the sun stand still in the sky.
Deuteronomy 28:29 "And thou shalt grope at noonday, as the blind gropeth in darkness, and thou shalt not prosper in thy ways: and thou shalt be only oppressed and spoiled evermore, and no man shall save thee."
Job 5:14 "They meet with darkness in the daytime, and grope in the noonday as in the night."
Isaiah 8:22 "And they shall look unto the earth; and behold trouble and darkness, dimness of anguish; and they shall be driven to darkness."
Gideon began his battle at night. Thus "they that walked in darkness". The sun rose in the west. Thus, the Egyptians recorded the sun rose from where it set. "light has shined". That was Joshua's long day as well. Thus, the sun stood still at noon for 24 hours = a great light. The sun set in the east. Thus, the Egyptians recorded the sun set where it normally rises at least two times. Then, the sun suddenly and brilliantly rose in the east soon after = "they saw a great light" = "A light rose in the sky".
Galilee is a deep valley, a land of deep shadows.
Job 28:3 "He setteth an end to darkness, and searcheth out all perfection: the stones of darkness, and the shadow of death."
Judges 8:13 "And Gideon the son of Joash returned from battle before the sun was up,"
"was up" = ascended. The other place the word is used is in Judges 1:36
Judges 1:36 "And the coast of the Amorites was from the going up to Akrabbim, from the rock, and upward."
The Masorah of the Former Prophets in the Leniningrad Codex. p.147.
The difference here in Judges 8:13, is the sun ascended, not the rock ascended.
H4608 מַעֲלֶה ma‛ăleh mah-al-eh' From H5927; an elevation, that is, (concretely) acclivity or platform; abstractly (the relation or state) a rise or (figuratively) priority: - ascent, before, chiefest, cliff, that goeth up, going up, hill, mounting up, stairs. Total KJV occurrences: 19
H2775 חַרְסָה חֶרֶס cheres charsâh kheh'-res, khar'-saw From an unused root meaning to scrape; the itch; also (perhaps from the mediating idea of H2777) the sun: - itch, sun. Total KJV occurrences: 4
Both spellings "ascended" H4608 and "sun" H2775 are unique.
Matthew 4:16 "The people which sat in darkness saw great light; and to them which sat in the region and shadow of death light is sprung up."
At lake Hula, just above the Sea of Galilee, malaria was common. Even the lake Hula was mostly drained a few years ago to stop malaria. Thus, the association with the shadow of death, of malaria, in the deep Jordan valley of Galilee. Only lake Hula served as an aquifer, and now the Sea of Galilee is murky because the lake Hula was drained. When the mistake was discovered it was too late to reverse the effect on the Sea of Galilee. The Sea of Galilee was blue before, even blue Galilee is in some hymns.
In this 29 AD in China it was recorded "A guest star trespassed against YUZUO extremely closely." YUZUO is the royal constellation. This may indicate a sun miracle in September of 29 AD.
East Asian Archaeology, p.130.
Matthew 4:16 "The people which sat in darkness saw great light; and to them which sat in the region and shadow of death light is sprung up."
The battle of Gideon also recorded in Isaiah 9, speaks of a great light. The sun suddenly rising in the east passing 180° west, must be brilliant to leave the same daily coral layer. Most coral require large amounts of light for successful growth. This includes damaging ultraviolet light. If the amount of sunlight is increased for the same daily coral layer during a short day, the type of light should be altered as well.
Here you see a coral from the Red Sea. Perhaps the Red Sea is named after the colour of this red coral.
Here you see one reason the Red Sea is called the Red Sea. Israel crossed the Reed Sea, the most easterly fork of the Nile River, not the Red Sea, when the water parted for Moses. In every case the Red Sea is in Hebrew the Reed Sea.
The Hebrew word for reed is this "soof". When the Hebrew was translated into Greek in the Septuagint, the translators dropped the letter "vav". This changed the meaning of the word Reed, to the similar sounding Hebrew word "saf" by mistake. "saf" in Hebrew means vestibule = a container of blood or wine = red. Thus, Reed Sea was changed to Red Sea.
Then the Greek translators further replaced the Hebrew "saf" for the Greek word Eruthros meaning red in the Greek Septuagint in 230 BC. Thus Reed sea was replaced by "red" sea. In every instance in the Old Testament, except for two misspellings, the Hebrew "soof" sea = Reed Sea = fresh water sea = reeds only grow in fresh water, is used.
Acts 10:17 the last word: G4440 πυλών pulōn poo-lone' From G4439; a gateway, door way or a building or city; by implication a portal or vestibule: - gate, porch. Total KJV occurrences: 18"
Acts 10:17 "Now while Peter doubted in himself what this vision which he had seen should mean, behold, the men which were sent from Cornelius had made enquiry for Simon's house, and stood before the gate,"
Thus, the Greek word, this Greek word, for the Hebrew word for vestibule was not used. The word "Red Sea" in the Greek Septuagint was used instead.
The translators of the Hebrew to the Greek Septuagint wrote to a Greek audience, and not to a Jewish audience.
You can see the middle Hebrew letter vav pronounced wow to make soof. Thus the translators of the Septuagint from Hebrew to Greek in 300 BC left out this middle letter changing the meaning from reed sea to a vessel of blood or wine and then to the Greek word Eruthros for the colour red to Red Sea.
Here you see the Red sea in Exodus 10:19 in other languages of the Bible:
Red Sea also in Exodus 13:18, 15:4, 15:22.
Exodus 10:19 "And the LORD turned a mighty strong west wind, which took away the locusts, and cast them into the Red sea; there remained not one locust in all the coasts of Egypt."
Exodus 15:4 "Pharaoh's chariots and his host hath he cast into the sea: his chosen captains also are drowned in the Red sea."
Exodus 14:28 "And the waters returned, and covered the chariots, and the horsemen, and all the host of Pharaoh that came into the sea after them; there remained not so much as one of them."
From Strong's concordance:
Thus you can see one letter, one jot, the Hebrew letter Vav, was omitted from the Hebrew soof to the Hebrew saf to change the Reed Sea to the Red Sea.
Likewise the full, the plene, spelling for the Hebrew word to flee in Joshua 10:11 includes the middle letter Vav.
The Hebrew word for to flee H5127 was used once defectively in Joshua 10:11 and once in plene spelling in second is 2 Samuel 19:3 by inserting the letter Vav.
Matthew 5:18 "For verily I say unto you, Till heaven and earth pass, one jot or one tittle shall in no wise pass from the law, till all be fulfilled."
This is this one jot or one tittle missing. The letter "Vav" is missing. Reed Sea = Samech Vav Phe, not Samech Phe. The "Reed Sea" is in the Hebrew.
Only when the Hebrew was translated into English, the Greek Septuagint word for "Red" was used. Simlply when the Septuagint was translated from Hebrew into Greek in 230 BC, the scribes omitted the middle letter "Vav". This left two letters instead of three. The two Hebrew letters spelled a crucible that was used to hold blood or wine. Because blood or wine is red, the translators of the Hebrew into Greek used the Greek word for red. Then the English translators also used the Greek word instead of the Hebrew word.
The meaning was the children of Israel crossed the Reed Sea, a fresh water sea, the easterly fork of the Nile River, and not the Red Sea.
Here is another example of a missing or mistranslated letter from the law of Moses:
Exodus 12:40 "Now the sojourning of the children of Israel, who dwelt in Egypt, was four hundred and thirty years.
12:41 And it came to pass at the end of the four hundred and thirty years, even the selfsame day it came to pass, that all the hosts of the LORD went out from the land of Egypt."
Galatians 3:17 "And this I say, that the covenant, that was confirmed before of God in Christ, the law, which was four hundred and thirty years after, cannot disannul, that it should make the promise of none effect."
From Sothis year 430 from 2737 BC = 2307 BC = when Jacob entered Egypt - to the end of this 1460 sothis cycle when the year that backed up one day every four years from the first appearing of Sirius at 4:15 AM July 16, 2737 BC = no February 29 - to 1281 BC = 1456 years after = Sirius appeared at 4:15 AM July 17 not July 16 = one day early = 4 years earlier = 1456 not 1460 years, this sothis cycle from 2737 BC = 1026 years after, not 430 years after, that the law was given by Moses after the Exodus Friday, March 30, 1281 BC.
"the end of the four hundred and thirty years" is the end of the sothis calendar in 1281 BC = the Exodus, Friday, March 30, 1281 BC.
Exodus 34:1 "And the LORD said unto Moses, Hew thee two tables of stone like unto the first: and I will write upon these tables the words that were in the first tables, which thou brakest."
from the four hundred and thirty years and:
Joshua 10:13b "the sun stood still from the half of heaven."
Exodus 12:40 "Now the sojourning of the children of Israel, who dwelt in Egypt, was from the four hundred and thirty years. the four hundred and thirty years."
The word from is simply the Hebrew letter Bet.
from the Egyptian sothis year 430, 2307 BC, to the end of the sothis calendar year of 1456 years, the sun backed up 364 days, at the Exodus March 30, 1281 BC. 2307 BC = 2300 years to Jesus' birth about September 12, 7 BC. The Exodus on the full moon, Friday, March 30, 1281 BC = Jesus' sacrifice on the full moon, Friday, April 3, 33 AD.
Here you can see the Greek for Red Sea = is simply the colour red. A vestibule for blood or wine. The colour red from the Hebrew "saf" instead of "soof". Thus, the translators of the Septuagint mistakenly assumed the word for vestibule = saf instead of the word soof for reed sea because they sound and look very alike. Then, the translators of the Septuagint to Latin and then to English also assumed the word vestibule and further translated the word as the colour red, thus the Red Sea tradition has stuck. And again in the New Testament Greek the same word eruthros as in the Septuagint is used in Acts 7:36 and Hebrews 11:29.
From the Septuagint:
From A Concordance of the Septuagint you can see all the references to the Red Sea:
From La Bibbia the Italian Bible. The mar rosso sea is Italian for the sea red. Similarly the Romanian word for red is rossu, meaning a deep red like in Christmas bows. Thus, the English Bible was translated from the Latin that was translated from the Greek Septuagint.
From Die Bibel the German Bible. The schilfmeer is German for the reed sea. Thus, the German Bible was translated from the Hebrew.
From the Polish Bible, Pismo Swiete:
Exodus 15:22 "So Moses brought Israel from the Red sea, and they went out into the wilderness of Shur; and they went three days in the wilderness, and found no water."
Morza Czerwonego = Sea Red = Latin - Mar Rosso:
From the translation of the Hebrew Bible to Greek in the Septuagint in 230 BC, the Greek version called the sea Moses and Israel crossed on dry land to be the sea we now call the Red Sea. The Red Sea may also be named red because of the red coral there.

The sun may have risen the day after Joshua's long day, suddenly in the east, Sunday, August 25, 1241 BC, or Sunday, August 11, 1241 BC, because the next day is described as the second day = Monday. Thus, Sunday, August 25, 1241 BC, or Sunday, August 11, 1241 BC, is a type of the resurrection Sunday. Joshua's long day probably was August 10, 1241 BC, the 21st day of the seventh month.
The sudden and brilliant ascension of the sun in the east, Sunday, the resurrection morning, April 5, 33 AD.
Joshua's long day the 21st day of the seventh month, August 10, 1241 BC is the most probable date. The next day Sunday, August 11, 1241 BC, would be the 22d day = the last and great day of the feast of taberncles.
Also, Gideon, at the crossing of the Jordan river February 4, 1241 BC may see the sun stand still at noon for 12 hours. Then at Joshua's long day, August 10, 1241 BC; would see the sun stand still for 24 hours at noon. Also, a great light, sudden sunrise, on a Sunday like the resurrection morning.
Gideon's battle may be Sunday, February 4, 1241 BC when Joshua and Israel crossed the river Jordan, the same day Joshua was to climb to Shechem and read all the law = a long day, perhaps 24 hours long, for Gideon to chase and kill the Midianites and their kings from Mount Tabor to Succoth and Penuel and to Jogbehah = some 60 miles, before the sudden sunrise in Judges 8:13.
There are several possible dates for Gideon's battle: February 4, 1241 BC, August 10, 1241 BC, February 4, 1240 BC, August 10, 1240 BC, February 5, 1239 BC.
Gideon's battle appears to mark two sun miracles. An early sunrise at midnight and long day. Then, a sudden sunrise in the east. Then earth must have already been in a reverse orbit = the sun moving and earth flow out of the reverse orbit, and again the sun moving this 180° and earth flowing back into the reverse orbit. Meaning there may have been a sun miracle at the death of Miriam, Moses' sister, the new moon, the first month, February 4, 1242 BC.
Thus, the sun traveling around the earth twice as fast as when it stood still in the sky would be more efficiant in producing a 12 hour day. That is, the sun is passing overhead. It should not matter which way. The sun has to stand still in the sky for a net total of 48 hours. However, if the sun travels east fast enough, the result is a normal 12 hour day, howbeit, the sun set in the east.
We do not know if the sun set in the east on Joshua's long day.
Joshua's long day may have begun as a normal day.
Then there may be a day of a longer 12 hours or 36 hours to begin a reverse orbit on Joshua's long day.
The sun may stand still on the other side of earth opposite Israel for a long night the next day or at any half orbit point in these two or three years of a reverse orbit ending in king Wan's dream.
Then the sun may rise in the west, be stopped at noon for 24 hours, continue east to set, and a further three hours, then the sun travel 180° west and suddenly rise in the east. The total reverse orbit starting with the fall of Jericho: -12 hours, + 36 hours night before Joshua's long day, + 24 hours, - 12 hours, + 12 hours = 48 hours.
Nevertheless, Joshua's long day may have started out as a normal day. What we know - we have two dates: Joshua's long day August 10, 1241 BC and king Wan's dream one and a half orbits later, February 5, 1239 BC.
Dionysius Exiguus was the first to date the life of Christ to BC and AD and his dates were off by at least four years.
The first year of Herod in Jerusalem:
"But as to the more bold and hardy men, they got together in bodies, and fell a robbing others after various manners, and these particularly plundered the places that were about the city, and this because there was no food left either for the horses or the men;"
Wars of the Jews, Chapter 18, p. 449 The Complete Works of Josephus.
This was when Herod took Jerusalem. This was a fallow year so thus the lack of bread. So 7 years back from 23 BC is 30 BC, 7 years back from 30 BC is 37 BC. So this must be 37 BC when the ground was not to be sowed, thus the shortage of food later that year. Thus, the 13th year counting from 36 BC may be 23 BC. A shortage of bread would bring this calamity:
These two fallow years must be the 49th and 50th years. From Herod's reign in Jerusalem from 35 BC, his 13th year be this year 49 = 23 BC and jubile year 50 = 22 BC. This from year one Joshua's conquest in 1241 BC, the fiftieth year was the year of the 70 year captivity in 591 BC, then 521 BC was year one, to 22 BC jubile to 29 AD jubile.
Thus, Herod's first year at the conquest of Jerusalem in 37 BC was a Sabbath fallow year and shortage of bread. This 23 BC was year 49, 14 years before a fallow year in 37 BC. There are two jubile cycles. One a 49 year cycle from 1241 BC and the other a 50 year cycle from 1241 BC of which is subtracted the 70 years of captivity from year 50 in 591 BC to begin again in 521 BC, 550 years, to Jesus' first year of ministry in September 9, 29, AD or October 7, 29 AD = the jubile.
"1. AND now Herod, in the eighteenth year of his reign, and after the acts already mentioned, undertook a very great work, that is, to build of himself the temple of God,"
The 18th year from 35 BC is 18 BC which is cycle year Sabbath year 49 from the year of Joshua's conquest, 1241 BC. So counting from 35 BC 18 years to the 49 year cycle is 18 BC.
There was a strong earthquake in the Aegean Sea in Turkey in 17 BC. Often sun miracles are followed with an earthquake.
John 2:19 "Jesus answered and said unto them, Destroy this temple, and in three days I will raise it up."
2:20 Then said the Jews, Forty and six years was this temple in building, and wilt thou rear it up in three days?"
From this 18 BC is 46 years to 29 AD at the beginning of Jesus' ministry and is 49 years at the finish of Jesus' ministry when he gave his life in sacrifice.
Ezra 4:24 "Then ceased the work of the house of God which is at Jerusalem. So it ceased unto the second year of the reign of Darius king of Persia."
Ezra 5:16 "Then came the same Sheshbazzar, and laid the foundation of the house of God which is in Jerusalem: and since that time even until now hath it been in building, and yet it is not finished."
Zechariah 1:1 "In the eighth month, in the second year of Darius, came the word of the LORD unto Zechariah, the son of Berechiah, the son of Iddo the prophet, saying,"
1 Kings 6:38 "And in the eleventh year, in the month Bul, which is the eighth month, was the house finished throughout all the parts thereof, and according to all the fashion of it. So was he seven years in building it."
From the resuming of the building of the Temple in Darius' second year 507 BC = 500 years to 7 BC. Jesus born the seventh month of 7 BC, and this be the 8th month of 507 BC.
Nevertheless, Darius I must have reigned 31 years from July 509 BC to October 478 BC / 477 BC.
Cambyses died after two lunar eclipses May 25, 510 BC and November 18, 510 BC.
Therefore, Darius reigned from July of 509 BC.
The temple was finished in his sixth year, the 3rd of Adar, February 10, 504 BC = Darius' first year in 510 BC / 509 BC. Then Darius I second year would be 508 BC / 507 BC.
The year the building of the temple resumed may be in this 507 BC = 2 years from 509 BC.
Ezra 6:15 "And this house was finished on the third day of the month Adar, which was in the sixth year of the reign of Darius the king.
6:16 And the children of Israel, the priests, and the Levites, and the rest of the children of the captivity, kept the dedication of this house of God with joy,"
The foundation of the second temple was laid in 521 BC and construction stopped. Construction of the temple began again in 507 BC and the temple was finished on the 3rd of Adar, February 10, 504 BC. Both dates 521 BC and 507 BC point to Christ.
1 Corinthians 3:11 "For other foundation can no man lay than that is laid, which is Jesus Christ."
490 years after 507 BC is this 18 BC. 49 more years is Jesus' sacrifice April 3, 33 AD. Likewise, the year of Jesus' crucifixion April 3, 33 AD was year 49 from 1241 BC. Thus, the year of Jesus' resurrection was a jublile year. The blood red moon just after the High Priest was slain must have been the reflection of a red dimmed sun during the sun miracle that night at the same time as the lunar eclipse September 15, 5 BC. Similarly the sun was dimmed on Joshua's long day: Joshua 10:12 Sun stand still. That night the sun must have moved back 180° and earth flowed out of the reverse orbit of the sun.
The Exodus out of Egypt was Friday, March 30, 1281 BC. Herod died the same March 30, 4 BC. Joseph took Mary and Jesus into Egypt about September 12, 5 BC, and returned to Israel after Herod died this March 30, 4 BC.
Matthew 2:15 "And was there until the death of Herod: that it might be fulfilled which was spoken of the Lord by the prophet, saying, Out of Egypt have I called my son."
Matthew 2:19 "But when Herod was dead, behold, an angel of the Lord appeareth in a dream to Joseph in Egypt,
2:20 Saying, Arise, and take the young child and his mother, and go into the land of Israel: for they are dead which sought the young child's life.
2:21 And he arose, and took the young child and his mother, and came into the land of Israel."
Herod died April 1, 4 BC.
The monk who determined Jesus was born year 1 AD, may have found the year of Jesus' crucifixion to be 33 AD and assumed Jesus was 30 when he began his ministry.
Luke 3:23 "When he began his ministry, Jesus himself was about thirtyG5144 years of age"
G5144 τριάκοντα triakonta tree-ak'-on-tah The decade of G5140; thirty: - thirty. Total KJV occurrences: 11
Joshua 10:13b "So the sun stood still in the midst of heaven, and hasted not to go down about a whole day."
Thus these little words in the Bible are important. "about thirty" "about a whole day" "forty minutes had to be found".
"about" a whole day, also the letter "Kaph" for about.
In this Hebrew New Testament you can see the Hebrew letter Kaph = about. The same Hebrew word Kaph "for about a whole day". Reading from the right part way is "kaph" about = When he began to be "about" thirty.
The first letter on the right is also Kaph. Kaph Bet (H935) perhaps means "about enter" = When. The letter Kaph looks alot like the letter Bet. The difference is a tiny bump on the bottom right of the letter Bet.
The second word is sheloshem. Three is shelosh, ending in m is plural. Thus, three times ten = 30. The next word is year. The first word kaf means about. This word about is important because the year should be he began to be thirty-five. If the year was thirty there would be no need of the first letter kaf for about.
This was written about the time Jesus was baptized. 40 days he fasted. He returned to Nazareth on Yom Kippur. His birth should be the 17th day of the seventh month. Yom Kippur, the day of Atonement, was on the tenth day of the seventh month. Thus, Jesus began, that is turned 35 years old, just days after he returned from being baptized.
Then Jesus' three and a half year ministry means Jesus would be 30 in 30 AD when he began his ministry. However, the word for 30 may mean the 30th decade = 35 years old. And certainly Herod died at the end of March in 4 BC. And this was the same Herod that the wise men came to. And Herod enquired when the star appeared two years previous. The year of tax of Augustus in the month he named August and in the same year.
"In 8 BC Augustus held a second census, in virtue of his imperium, in which 4,233,600 citizens were counted."
Augustus, Ancient Culture and Society by A.H.M Jones. p.68.
This 8 BC could be 7 BC because there is no year zero.
The coin of Augustus is the zodiac sign Capricorn. If you can picture the sun moving 180° from Virgo in August to Capricorn. Augustus created the month of August.
"Augustus was not a man to be daunted by death and bereavement, and the business of government did not pause. A census was held and the Senate list revised, once again ... In 7 BC, Augustus' powers were renewed, this time for ten years,"
The life of Rome's First Emperor, Augustus, p.278.
"The plebiscite Lex Pacuvia de mense augusto renamed Sextilis Augustus (August) in 8 BC."
Wikipedia
This was year 746, that is 7 BC, from the founding of Rome in 752 BC = two years before the death of Uzziah King of Judah in 750 BC.
In 248 AD was 1000 years from the founding of Rome. Thus, Rome was founded in 752 BC: 1000 - 248 = 753 BC. The coin: "Antoninianus of Pacatianus, usurper of Roman emperor Philip in 248. It reads ROMAE AETER[NAE] AN[NO] MIL[LESIMO] ET PRIMO, "To eternal Rome, in its one thousand and first year".
"Resistance to a census in Israel by Herod could have delayed its implementation by for years, making a well-documented census in 7 BC a likely candidate."
Centennial Collector's Edition, The Birth of Jesus, Census ordered by Caesar Augustus, p.43
This same 8 BC Caesar named the month after himself because of his victories in "August". This was a perfect time to make a census in August the next year in 7 BC - and Jesus be born about September 12, 7 BC.
Augustus reigned from 27 BC till he died in August 14 AD. Caesar Tiberius reigned 15th year = 29 AD. Tiberius died March 16, 37 AD. The Passover was March 20, 37 AD.
Acts 5:37 "After him Judas the Galilean rose up in the days of the census and drew away some of the people after him. He too perished, and all who followed him were scattered."
This may be the same census Joseph kept when he and Mary came to Bethlehem when Jesus was born in September of 7 BC = at the ingathering of fruits.
Julius Caesar was assassinated March 15, 45 BC = the Passover. Julius Caeser began the Julian calendar that year with the new moon January 1, 45 BC. Then March 15, 45 BC is exactly the 15 day, the full moon, the Passover.
Likewise Caesar Tiberius was assassinated about the Passover. There may have been a sun miracle of darkness for an omen for the assassinations at the Passover.
The war in which Herod Antipas was defeated was one year before Caesar Tiberius died = about the new moon, March 16, 36 AD. Then the possibility of a sun miracle that year, the sun may move back at the one year mark March 16, 37 AD = the ten day moon - the Passover lamb to be kept at home till the fourteenth day, the Passover.
These are the beginning chapters of the book of Acts.
The year Stephen was stoned was 36 AD in Acts 7.
Luke 3:1 "Now in the fifteenth year of the reign of Tiberius Caesar, Pontius Pilate being governor of Judaea, and Herod being tetrarch of Galilee, and his brother Philip tetrarch of Ituraea and of the region of Trachonitis, and Lysanias the tetrarch of Abilene,"
Luke 2:1 "And it came to pass in those days, that there went out a decree from Caesar Augustus, that all the world should be taxed.
2:2 (And this taxing was first made when Cyrenius was governor of Syria.)
2:3 And all went to be taxed, every one into his own city.
2:4 And Joseph also went up from Galilee, out of the city of Nazareth, into Judaea, unto the city of David, which is called Bethlehem; (because he was of the house and lineage of David:)
2:5 To be taxed with Mary his espoused wife, being great with child.
2:6 And so it was, that, while they were there, the days were accomplished that she should be delivered.
2:7 And she brought forth her firstborn son, and wrapped him in swaddling clothes, and laid him in a manger; because there was no room for them in the inn.
2:8 And there were in the same country shepherds abiding in the field, keeping watch over their flock by night."
The 17 day moon would rise in the east just as it had become dark about 8 PM. Thus, then there would be moonlight to enable the shepherds to find the home of Joseph and Mary and see Jesus just when he was born.
Perhaps Jesus was born Saturday, September 12, 7 BC. Then perhaps the sun moved to the other side of the earth that night; and Arcturus that would normally be beside the sun in September, would appear directly above at midnight. Then perhaps Jesus was born on the Sabbath and was circumcised on the Sabbath. Then perhaps there were two years of a reverse orbit, the sun moving back September 13, 5 BC, just after the wisemen had come to find and worship Jesus and this Arcturus be the star in the east the wisemen followed.
Psalm 87:6 "The LORD shall count, when he writeth up the people, that this man was born there. Selah."
Deuternomy 16:13 "Thou shalt observe the feast of tabernacles seven days, after that thou hast gathered in thy corn and thy wine:"
Thus, the time of fruit was the time to collect taxes, in the seventh month, in September, at the feast of tabernacles.
Luke 2:2 and part of 2:4 are in brackets. Cyrenius was governor of Syria in 6 AD, 9 years after Herod died. So, this tax of Augustus must be before 4 BC, and most probably in 7 BC. The year of Augustus' census should be in August of 7 BC and the time also be the seventh month, the feast of tabernacles in August/September = the ingathering of fruits = time the fruits could pay the tax.
Everyone was supposed to stay outside in booths during the feast of tabernacles. Then, the inn should have been empty and ready to take in Joseph and Mary to give birth to Jesus.
Thus, Jesus must have been born September 12, 7 BC at the time of this census of Augustus, in the breeding season for sheep, and at the time of the feast of booths/tabernacles when everyone was to be outdoors.
If Jesus was crucified in April 7, 30 AD: Then counting from the 18th of Herod from 38 BC is 21 BC and 46 years later is 26 AD when Jesus would be 31.
Numbers 4:3 "From thirty years old and upward even until fifty years old, all that enter into the host, to do the work in the tabernacle of the congregation."
Then Herod would have died in 4 BC, Jesus born in 7 BC and Jesus crucified April 7, 30 AD at 35 years of age. However, the cycles of 50 and 49 years from the beginning in Joshua's day do not then agree. Also the 15th year of Caesar that began John and Jesus' ministry must have been 29 AD because Augustus Caesar died August 19, 14 AD when Tiberius became emperor of Rome.
Jesus must have been crucified April 3, 33 AD the 49 year jubile, and Jesus must have been born about September 12, 7 BC.
Jesus therefore must have been thirty five when he began his three and a half year ministry.
Luke 3:1 "Now in the fifteenth year of the reign of Tiberius Caesar, Pontius Pilate being governor of Judaea, and Herod being tetrarch of Galilee, and his brother Philip tetrarch of Ituraea and of the region of Trachonitis, and Lysanias the tetrarch of Abilene,
3:2 Annas and Caiaphas being the high priests, the word of God came unto John the son of Zacharias in the wilderness."
Tiberius was Roman Emperor from 14 AD to 37 AD. The fifteenth year would be in 29 AD. John's ministry began at the Passover in the spring of 29 AD when Jesus was baptized. Thus, Jesus began his ministry six months later August/September, 29 AD.
Herod's reign was counted from 37 BC, 34 years to 4 BC by Josephus. Possibly at times his reign is counted from 35 BC. His death could be March 30, 4 BC. His first year was supposed to be 40 BC - 36 BC the 185 Olympiad. From 37 BC he actually reigned from Jerusalem. His son Philip reigned 37 years from 4 BC to 34 AD. Herod would hardly let his sons reign when he was still alive. Nevertheless, Jesus still appears to be born about Saterday, September 12, 7 BC, and crucified Friday, April 3, 33 AD. Also, there are many examples in scripture of Hebrew Kings living or reigning 38 years, the span of Jesus' life from September 12, 7 BC to April 3, 33 AD.
Luke 2:21 "And when eight days were accomplished for the circumcising of the child, his name was called JESUS, which was so named of the angel before he was conceived in the womb.
2:22 And when the days of her purification according to the law of Moses were accomplished, they brought him to Jerusalem, to present him to the Lord;
2:23 (As it is written in the law of the Lord, Every male that openeth the womb shall be called holy to the Lord;)
2:24 And to offer a sacrifice according to that which is said in the law of the Lord, A pair of turtledoves, or two young pigeons.
2:25 And, behold, there was a man in Jerusalem, whose name was Simeon; and the same man was just and devout, waiting for the consolation of Israel: and the Holy Ghost was upon him.
2:26 And it was revealed unto him by the Holy Ghost, that he should not see death, before he had seen the Lord's Christ.
2:27 And he came by the Spirit into the temple: and when the parents brought in the child Jesus, to do for him after the custom of the law,
2:28 Then took he him up in his arms, and blessed God, and said,
2:29 Lord, now lettest thou thy servant depart in peace, according to thy word:
2:30 For mine eyes have seen thy salvation,
2:31 Which thou hast prepared before the face of all people;
2:32 A light to lighten the Gentiles, and the glory of thy people Israel."
Simeon mentioned Jesus is a light to lighten the Gentiles. There may have been a sudden brilliant sunrise when Jesus was born. Then the sun would be on the other side of the earth.
Then if Simeon knew that Arcturus that now appeared directly above at midnight in September, September 12, 7 BC, was the star of the King of the Jews, he would know 8 + 33 days later, 40 days later, that new moon, rather the end of the moon, at the last visibility of the moon, October 22, 7 BC, that Jesus would be brought into the temple and be ready to greet him.
Leviticus 12:3 "And in the eighth day the flesh of his foreskin shall be circumcised.
12:4 And she shall then continue in the blood of her purifying three and thirty days; she shall touch no hallowed thing, nor come into the sanctuary, until the days of her purifying be fulfilled."
Jesus must be born about September 12, 7 BC or September 13, 7 BC. Then on the eighth day he was circumcised September 20, BC = the autumn equinox. Then 33 days later Jesus' parents Mary and Joseph brought Jesus into the temple, into the sanctuary = at the end of the eighth month, when Simeon would also enter the temple.
Zechariah 1:1 "In the eighth month, in the second year of Darius, came the word of the LORD unto Zechariah, the son of Berechiah, the son of Iddo the prophet, saying,
1:2 The LORD hath been sore displeased with your fathers.
1:3 Therefore say thou unto them, Thus saith the LORD of hosts; Turn ye unto me, saith the LORD of hosts, and I will turn unto you, saith the LORD of hosts."
1 Kings 6:37 "In the fourth year was the foundation of the house of the LORD laid, in the month Zif:
6:38 And in the eleventh year, in the month Bul, which is the eighth month, was the house finished throughout all the parts thereof, and according to all the fashion of it. So was he seven years in building it."
The second year of Darius was in 507 BC = 500 years to Jesus' birth, and to this eighth month = the end of the eighth month, the exact time Simeon would take up Jesus in his arms in the temple.
Jesus' birth September 12, 7 BC is day 51 of cycle 60, and year 49 of cycle 60. From the Exodus in 1281 BC are 26 X 49 year jubiles to Jesus' birth in 7 BC.
The oracle tortoise bone record "three flames ate the sun" was on a day 52, possibly the total solar eclipse in China, March 4, 1250 BC or a sun miracle in the reign of Woo-ting, 50 years, 1393 BC to 1343 BC. Perhaps there was a prophesy Jesus would be born on a day 51 of cycle 60.
In Hebrew the seven days were numbered, one to seven. Nevertheless, the first day logically begins with the first sunlight.
This 7 + 33 days = 40 days. From September 12, 7 BC = October 22, 7 BC = the last day of the eighth lunar month.
Jeremiah 36:9 "And it came to pass in the fifth year of Jehoiakim the son of Josiah king of Judah, in the ninth month, that they proclaimed a fast before the LORD to all the people in Jerusalem, and to all the people that came from the cities of Judah unto Jerusalem.
36:10 Then read Baruch in the book the words of Jeremiah in the house of the LORD, in the chamber of Gemariah the son of Shaphan the scribe, in the higher court, at the entry of the new gate of the LORD'S house, in the ears of all the people."
Leviticus 12:6 "And when the days of her purifying are fulfilled, for a son, or for a daughter, she shall bring a lamb of the first year for a burnt offering, and a young pigeon, or a turtledove, for a sin offering, unto the door of the tabernacle of the congregation, unto the priest:"
"Then read Baruch in the book the words of Jeremiah in the house of the LORD" "unto the door of the tabernacle of the congregation, unto the priest:" "And he came by the Spirit into the temple"
The sun miracle on day 40 of cycle 60 in China September 7, 591 BC would be like the same time of year as Jesus' birth September 12, 7 BC, and 40 more days to his being brought to the temple = the end of this eighth month of Bul.
1 Kings 6:38 "And in the eleventh year, in the month Bul, which is the eighth month, was the house finished throughout all the parts thereof, and according to all the fashion of it. So was he seven years in building it."
The 49 year jubile to 33 AD, was 18 BC; from 18 BC the 11th year is this 7 BC when Jesus was born. This 1044 BC = the first year of Solomon. From 1046 BC was the 49th jubile from Joshua's conquest in 1241 BC all the way to Jesus' sacrifice April 3, 33 AD; the same 11th year of the 49 year jubile.
John 2:20 "Then said the Jews, Forty and six years was this temple in building, and wilt thou rear it up in three days?"
From this 18 BC the temple was being rebuilt, 46 years to the beginning of Jesus' ministry in 29 AD = 49 years, the 49 year jubile = Jesus' sacrfice, April 3, 33 AD.
Many sun miracles were on years ending X68 BC and some on years X18 BC: Such as King Heen becoming emperor of China in 367 BC and dieing 48 years later in 319 BC. Both years point to 50 year jubiles to Jesus' sacrifice April 3, 33 AD.
From X68 BC are even 50's to Jesus' sacrifice. From X07 BC are even 50's to Jesus' birth. From X18 BC are even 50's to Jesus' sacrifice. From X45 BC are 38 years to X07 BC and even 50's to Jesus' birth. From X21 BC and from X71 BC are even 50's to Jesus' ministry.
Some X18 BC are 2318 BC also a 49 year jubile to Jesus' sacrifice the year Joseph was put in prison in Egypt in 2318 BC. Three years later in spring in 2315 BC Joseph was taken out of prison and Yao became emperor when the sun stood still for ten days. In the year 2218 BC emperor Yao died. In the spring of 718 BC the emperor Hwan died. In the year 518 BC the emperor King King died.
Hebrews 1:3 "Who being the brightness of his glory, and the express image of his person, and manifesting all things by the word of his power, when he had by himself purged our sins, sat down on the right hand of the Majesty on high;"
Matthew 2:2 "Saying, Where is he that is born King of the Jews? for we have seen his star in the east, and are come to worship him."
Matthew 2:2 "For we saw his star when it rose."
The Latin states we have seen his star in the "oriente." When I think of the orient I usually think of China.
Luke 2:8 "And there were in the same country shepherds abiding in the field, keeping watch over their flock by night."
The sun on the other side of the earth, perhaps a 12 hour longer night when Jesus was born, means Arcturus would rise in the east at sunset instead of set with the sun in the west with sunset.
Matthew 2:9 "So when they had heard the King, they departed: and loe, the star which they had seen in the east, went before them, till it came and stood over the place where the babe was.
2:10 And when they saw the star, they rejoiced with an exceeding great joy,
2:11 And went into the house, and found the babe with Mary his mother, and fell down, and worshipped him, and openned their treasures, and presented unto him gifts, gold, frankincense, and myrre."
If you can read Hebrew, this verse Matthew 2:9 from the New Testament Hebrew - English. From the last line of verse 9: Some words like amad to stop; the same as in Joshua 10:13 "and the moon stayed" then perhaps "touched concerned" "stop" "from above" "above" "stayed lingered" "where" "child".
"till it came and stood over the place where the babe was" that is "stood over" may mean the star continued west, "stood over" in Greek may mean the star reached directly above, and continued west like other stars.
Matthew 2:9 "When they had heard from the king, they went away; and behold the same star that they had seen in the east was going before them, until it came and stood just above the place where the infant boy was."
Holy Bible from the ancient eastern text
Matthew was written first in Aramaic before it was written in Greek.
Zechariah 14:16 "And it shall come to pass, that every one that is left of all the nations which came against Jerusalem shall even go up from year to year to worship the King, the LORD of hosts, and to keep the feast of tabernacles."
Jesus must have been born during the feast of tabernacles.
In this reverse orbit, in March, Arcturus would appear in the west at sunset. Normally Arcturus in March rises in the east at sunset.
Then in this reverse orbit, by June, Arcturus would appear directly above at sunset. By August Arcturus would appear in the east at sunset. Thus, the wise men saw the star in the east and travelling east each night while earth was in the reverse orbit.
Both the lunar eclipse of September 15, 5 BC recorded by Josephus in the time of Herod who died April 1, 4 BC, and the partial lunar eclipse of April 3, 33 AD to mark Jesus' crucifixion "give Jesus a longer life span than most authorities believe he actually had."
Moon Shadow, The Story of the Total Eclipse, p.73
Nevertheless, the dates found here point to Jesus living from September 12, 7 BC to April 3, 33 AD.
There may be sun miracles in 1204 BC six months after the lunar eclipse September 24, 1205 BC = 1200 years to Herod's death, 1004 BC = the death of King Solomon, the death of King Herod in 4 BC. Solar eclipse record in China day 48 of cycle 60 February 16, 505 BC may rather be a sun miracle second temple finished on the 3rd day of Adar = February 10, 504 BC = 500 years to the death of Herod, April 1, 4 BC.
"...it is reported, that in the time of their seventh emperor, Yao, the sun did not set for ten days, and that men were afraid the earth would be burnt.."
Gill 1810, Hubner 1733. However, this ancient text no longer exists.
"Yao" Universal Lexicon(1732-1754) Volume LX.

"Once there were seven suns in the sky. It was too hot. People found a good archer and asked him to shoot some of the suns. The archer was a daring man. He said, 'Tomorrow morning when the seven suns come out I'll shoot six of them with six arrows. If I fail, I'll be a marmot, cut off my thumb, drink blood instead of water, eat dry grass and live underground.' Well, he shot five. When he shot his last arrow, a sparrow flew in front of him. The arrow cut the sparrow's tail, which is why the sparrow has a forked tail. He did as he promised, and became a marmot. That is why the marmot has human meat on him."
Ghengis Khan, Life, Death and Resurrection. By John Man. p.27. On the subject how tales originated among the Mongol people.
The following record in China depicts the astronomers using a jade sighting tube aimed straight up at the star appearing at sunset in the meridian of the night sky. Thus, the wisemen who came to worship Jesus may have also had such a tool to measure where Arcturus passed over Bethlehem at midnight. Also by the 2nd century BC China had broadened its trade to the Middle East.
"The emperor Yao ordered his ministers Hsi and Ho to make the sighting-tube (lit. horizontal traverse) to observe the degrees of the positions of the stars. The ring and tube were made of hard jade because they wanted the apparatus to endure all weathers and to be always movable, not decaying with age."
Joseph Needham, Heavenly Clockwork, p62.
The ancient Chinese were the most advanced in astronomy and in reading the stars.
To travel from China to Bethlehem should take much more than two months = from the appearing of the comet on the new moon day 8 of cycle 60 to the full moon day 56 of cycle 60 = the blood lunar eclipse moon September 15, 5 BC.
To travel 500 miles from the east in Babylon may take five months. And to cross the Himalaya mountains to Israel may take nearly two years.
Ezra 7:9 "For upon the first day of the first month began he to go up from Babylon, and on the first day of the fifth month came he to Jerusalem, according to the good hand of his God upon him."
The comet of 5 BC seen 70 days from March, the sun in earth's reverse orbit was passing from the September position in Virgo in March to the March position in Pisces in September. Then the possibility the 70 days of the comet's appearance may have lead up to September because of the counting of the sun in the zodiac in the reverse orbit.
However, there was no comet recorded for September of 5 BC. The star of Arcturus must have been the star the wisemen followed passing directly above Bethlehem.
A long journey begins with just one step. For the wisemen to start out two years before making it to Bethlehem, they may have started out from China and followed the Silk Road. From the Han dynasty with Lui Bang in 207 BC trade openned up from China to the Middle East.
"There were Christians in Western China before the first missionaries even visited Scandinavia."
Thus, in even 200 years later in 7 BC, with many many sun miracles over thousands of years with years ending with X07 BC, with the sun moved to the other side of earth and Arcturus appear directly above in September at midnight, the Magi, or perhaps Chinese astronomers, could start out on a journey to Israel to the latitude Arcturus would pass 90° at midnight in September, and ask further where the Christ was to be born in Jerusalem only to travel four more miles south to Bethlehem.
To travel from Anyang China could take almost two years = Herod slew the children of Bethlehem two and under from when the star appeared.
From China to Israel on the Silk Road was about 5000 miles. At ten miles a day that is 500 days = almost two years' journey.
The wisemen probably came about the beginning of September 5 BC, which was the new moon. Either the moon would be rising after midnight, or it would be a first quarter moon that would set at midnight. Nevertheless, Arcturus is one of the brightest stars. Vega is about the same brightness, as is Sirius.
Thus, the wisemen would have no trouble seeing Arcturus rise in the east. The sun must return about the lunar eclipse = full moon, of September 15, 5 BC, and earth flow out of the reverse orbit of the sun.
Records in China, from the sun miracle in the 57th day of cycle 60, in the 50th year of the Chinese emperor Huangdi from 2656 BC = 2607 BC, counting days of 60 and years of 60 from the new moon January 26, 2636 BC, seventh month, seventeenth day, October 18, 2607 BC, and many more such as 2307 BC = Jacob enters Egypt, 907 BC = Joash made King of Judah, 507 BC = the foundation of the second temple was laid in King Darius I's second year, 207 BC (Lui Bang) = who determined the four seasons like Yao did.
"Zhao Gao had told King Hubai that the rebellions in the kingdom were but minor and isolated incidents and the rioters were local bandits and brigades. During the 8th month of this year, Lui Bang leading several thousand men successfully took the Wugan Pass and breached into the Wangyi Palace, where Hubai was staying, in the midst of the mayhem, all the palace guards, attendants and eunuchs had run for their lives.."
Wars with the Xiongnu, by Joseph P. Yap. p.54.
The 8th month in China often is the 7th month in Israel. Jesus' birth possibly on the 17th day of the 7th month, and a sun miracle that the Chinese were terrified of here, that pointed to Jesus' birth in this 207 BC = 200 years to Jesus' birth.
Saturday, September 3, 207 BC was the 17th lunar day of the 7th month:
All would point to the King of the Jews, Jesus' birth in even 100's to September 12, 7 BC.
8,000 Terracotta Warriors statues, found at the Tomb of the First Emperor, may have been inspired by Greeks. Qin Shi Huang lived between 259-210 BC and became the first emperor of a unified China. Thus, sun miracles at this time may have been recorded by both the Greeks and Chinese. Because trade with Rome and China also began at this time, there is the possibility the wisemen came from as far away as China where thousands of years of sun miracles were recorded in patterns of 50 and 49 years to Jesus' birth and sacrifice.
Chinese Emperor Yao's first year began in spring when the sun stood still for 10 days. Yao employed Yi to shoot at the sun 9 times, saving one sun, whereupon the sun moved again. They made Yao emperor.
Thereupon Yao determined to know the four seasons.
Yao commanded the second brother He to reside at Yu-e, in what was called the bright valley, and there respectfully to receive as a guest the rising sun, and to adjust and arrange the labours of spring.
"The day," he said "is of the medium length, and the star is Neaou; you may thus exactly determine midspring. He further commanded the third brother He to reside at Nan-keaou, and arrange the transformations of summer, and respectfully to observe the extreme limit of the shadow.
"The day," said he, "is at its longest, and the star is Ho; You may thus exactly determine midsummer.
He separately commanded the second brother Ho to reside at the west, in what was called the Dark Valley, and there respectfully to convoy the setting sun, and to adjust and arrange the completing labours of autumn. "The night," he said, "is of the medium length, and the star is Heu; you may thus exactly determine mid-autumn. The people begin to feel at ease; and birds and beasts have their coats in good condition."
Genesis 40:13 "Yet within three days shall Pharaoh lift up thine head, and restore thee unto thy place: and thou shalt deliver Pharaoh's cup into his hand, after the former manner when thou wast his butler."
From this 2317 BC = 2 years before Joseph lifted up out of the dungeon, is 2737 - 2317 = 420 years. 420 / 4 = 105 days. 105 days back from Egyptian new years July 16 is April 3, 2317 BC = the same April 3, 33 AD Jesus went to the cross.
April 1 was Pharaoh's birthday. A few more years in year 430 from 2737 BC = 2307 BC is 430 / 4 = 107 days. 107 days back from July 16 is April 1 is Pharaoh's birthday. Likewise, this 2307 BC is 2300 years to Jesus' birthday, perhaps September 12, 7 BC.
Exodus 12:40 "Now the sojourning of the children of Israel, who dwelt in Egypt, was four hundred and thirty years.
12:41 And it came to pass at the end of the four hundred and thirty years, even the selfsame day it came to pass, that all the hosts of the LORD went out from the land of Egypt."
430 years from the sothis cycle beginning in 2737 BC = 2300 BC. The self same day is Friday, March 30, 1281 BC = April 1, 2307 BC = the end of the sothis cycle of 1456 years, four years short 1460 years.
Back one sothis cyce of 1461 years from 2737 BC = 4198 BC.
430 years from the sothis cycle beginning in 4198 BC = 3768 BC = 3800 years to Jesus' sacrifice April 3, 33 AD. A sun miracle in 3768 BC may have been the omen to make Pharaoh's birthday in year 430 when the new years was April 1, 3768 BC.
Genesis 40:20 "And it came to pass the third day, which was Pharaoh's birthday, that he made a feast unto all his servants: and he lifted up the head of the chief butler and of the chief baker among his servants."
April 1, 2317 BC was Sunday. Three days later was this third day of the week Tuesday. Egyptian new years had no February 29 so the calendar backed up one day every four days, new years Pharaoh's birthday was April 3, 2317 BC = from 2727 BC to 2317 BC 410 years, 420 / 4 = 105 days back from July 16 = April 3, 2317 BC. Jesus was crucified April 3, 33 AD.
The sothis calendar backs up one day every four years. Then new years April 3, 2317 BC, more than eight years later = 2 days later = 2307 BC, new years would be April 1.
April 1 was Pharaoh's birthday 107 days back from July 16. That is, in Sothis year 430, 430 / 4 = 107 days = the year and day, new years, Jacob and sons entered Egypt. New years backed up from July 16, 2737 BC 430 years to Friday, April 1, 2307 BC. 430 / 4 = 107 days = the day Jacob and his family entered Egypt.
The sojourn of Jacob into Egypt to be Friday, must count 14 days from the last visibility of the moon. Thus, Friday, April 1, 2307 BC be the 14th day of the Egyptian lunar month. Thus, Friday, March 30, 1281 BC be the 14th day of the Hebrew month, the full moon and the Exodus.
Then the "selfsame day" must mean Friday, must mean the 14th day both times. Only the full moon was Sunday, April 3, 2307 BC. The 430th year of new years backed up the calendar 430 / 4 = 107 days from July 16 = April 1, 2307 BC. This same 107 days back from July 17, in 1281 BC was again April 1. Thus, in all, Friday, April 1, 2307 BC = Friday, March 30, 1281 BC.
Picture a globe of earth. If you rotate the base 180° for a sun movement of 180° at winter or summer solstice to keep earth in the same season; you will see half of 26,000 years of precession. Thus, a date of 90 days from the autumn or vernal equinox produces 180° shift to keep earth in the same season. Therefore, 2 X the number of days from the equinoxes is the number of degrees to shift earth or sun. Thus, April 1, 2307 BC was 10 days before the vernal equinox April 11, 2307 BC. 26000 / 360°: = 72 years. 10 days = 10° x 72 years X 2 = 1400 years more recent than April 1, 2315 BC = 1000 BC sky instead of a 2300 BC sky.
"But apart from this, we are prepared to affirm that the three of the men sent to the four borders of China could not have seen the stars culminating at nightfall, when the sun is in the first point of Cancer, for it must culminate at 6h. P.M., whereas the sun would not set in any part of China in midsummer much before 7h P.M., and the stars would not be visible for half an hour after sunset. This fact would stand equally in the way, at the equinoxes, of the observers' seeing their stars culminating, unless indeed, the time of observation was several centuries later than the date usually assigned to Yaouh (B.C. 2356 - 2355; - should be 40 years more recent = 2316 - 2315 BC), so that the stars to be observed had ceased to be exactly in the solstitial colure.
The astronomer who went to the north in winter is the only one who would have no difficulty of this kind."
The Chinese Classics, The Astronomy of the Ancient Chinese, p.92.
The sun sets 6:42 PM and rises at 4:28 AM at summer June 21 = 14 hours day 10 hours night. 14 divided by 2 = 7 = the sun rises 7 hours before noon and sets 7 hours after noon. This means the sun sets at 7 PM on June 21 the longest day in summer in China.
Joseph may have been made prisoner in Egypt in 2319 BC = year 49 of cycle 49 the jubile to Jesus' sacrifice April 3, 33 AD.
Caiaphas became High Priest in 18 AD when Jesus was 25 years old. Joseph would be 25 in this 2319 BC. Joseph would be born 2345 BC = 39 years of age when Jacob and his sons entered Egypt in 2307 BC = the age of Jesus when Jesus gave his sacrifice.
In the Book of the Jubiles Joseph would be 28 years old when he was made governor over Egypt in 2315 BC, and not 30 years old. 3 years before this in 2318 BC Joseph would be 25 years old.
Nevertheless, this could be Joseph at 29 years old in his 30th year.
Joseph welcomed his father and brothers into Egypt when he was 38 and a half years old. Jesus must have been 38 and a half years old when we went to the cross. Joseph was sold into slavery when he was 17 years old. Then, Joseph was 23 years in Egypt before his brothers came begging for bread. Then the end of this 23 years would be 2307 BC = 2300 years to Jesus' birth; 100 X 23 = 2300 years. Also, from Jacob's 70th year, when he dreamed of a ladder to heaven with angels ascending and descending, in 2368 BC = 2400 years to Jesus' sacrifice, are again 23 years to Joseph's birth in 2345 BC.
From Jesus at 12 years of age are 23 years to his first year in the ministry when he was 35 years old.
Yao's first year should be 2315 BC = Joseph made governor of Egypt.
In 1919 it was noticed the motions of Mercury, the perihelion and aphelion = nearest and furthest from the sun, were slightly off. Einstein used the unexplained motions of Mercury to validate his theory of Relativity. Even in 2018 a second correction was made to calculate Mercury's orbit, also using Einstein's theory of Relativity.
Newton's law that light has mass predicts objects passing a massive object like the sun will be bent around the sun. The bending is only a few meters. However, the gravity of the sun slows the light photons considerably creating a lensing around the sun. Einstein's theory of relativity predicts the photons will be bent two times more than Newton's law. That is, the slow down of time according to Relativity is twice the affect as gravity.
The precession of earth that takes 26,000 years to complete was known by James Legge in 1860. Nevertheless, the stars named by Yao would not mark the four seasons till quite a bit more than the 700 years James Legge suggested.
April 1, 2315 BC was 10 days before the spring equinox in April 10, 2315 BC. 2 X 10 days = 20°. The four stars of Yao would mark the four seasons 1400 years more recent than in 2315 BC. Thus, this record of Yao cannot be explained away because there is not 700 years, but a huge 1400 year discrepancy. Yao's stars visible in their seasons in 2315 BC, would not normally be visible in their seasons till 900 BC.
Jesus must be born September 12, 7 BC, ten days before the autumn equinox. Yao's long day = Joseph's dream = April 1, 2315 BC ten days before the vernal equinox = the sun may return at the half orbit point = also ten days before the autumn equinox. 186 days, half an orbit, after the full moon April 1, 2315 BC is Friday, October 3, 2315 BC the 22nd day of the seventh month = what would become the last day of the feast of tabernacles. Jesus' birth be the 17th day of the seventh month during this seven day feast.
"And he celebrated there yet another day, ..and called its name "Addition", for this day was added, and the former days he called "The Feast"
Ancient Book of Jubilees, p.118.
The feast of Tabernacles, that is, the feast of Boothes, was from the 15th day of the seventh month to the 21st day. The day added would be the 22nd day = the great day of the feast. Joshua's long day may be the 21st day of the seventh month, August 10, 1241 BC.
2 Chronicles 7:10 "And on the three and twentieth day of the seventh month he sent the people away into their tents, glad and merry in heart for the goodness that the LORD had shewed unto David, and to Solomon, and to Israel his people."
Here you can see the 22nd day moon:
The great day of the feast, before Benjamin's birth in about 2333 BC. Benjamin would be 7 years old, 10 years younger than Joseph, when his older brother Joseph who was born in 2345 BC/2343 BC was 17 years old in 2328 BC, was sold into Egypt.
Or, Benjamin born in 2333 BC and Joseph born 2345 BC/2343 BC.
Joseph born in the sixth year of the fourth week = 21 + 5 = 26 years from 2369 BC = 2343 BC or simply 2345 BC.
John 7:37 "In the last day, that great day of the feast, Jesus stood and cried, saying, If any man thirst, let him come unto me, and drink."
April 1, 2315 BC = Jesus' sacrifice April 3, 33 AD.
Nevertheless, April 1, 2315 BC was the full moon = the Passover Friday, March 30, 1281 BC. The start of the second year of famine should be 8 years later, 7 years plus one year of famine. Thus, April 1, 2315 BC should start the seven years of plenty.
Genesis 45:6 "For these two years hath the famine been in the land: and yet there are five years, in the which there shall neither be earing nor harvest."
Then, the new moon Friday March 29, 2316 BC = the Hebrew new moon's first visibility Sunday/Monday March 31/April 1, 2316 BC; may begin the seven years of plenty to 2309 BC; then two years of famine to 2307 BC.
Friday, March 30, 1281 BC was the Exodus.
Thus, it would be entirely impossible for the Chinese astronomers to name these four stars to mark the four seasons in 2315 BC unless the sun moved.
The famine stele, inscribed in 332 BC for Pharaoh Djosor, describes seven years of famine. This may be the famine of Abraham.
Genesis 12:10 "And there was a famine in the land: and Abram went down into Egypt to sojourn there; for the famine was grievous in the land."
Abraham left Haran in 2532 BC. Thus, if the Egyptian chronology at the time of Djosor was 100 more years more recent, this record of Abraham of famine could be the same year. Then Abraham would see the great pyramid when he sojourned in Egypt.
Wood fragments found under the Great Pyramid of Giza are carbon dated to 500 years older than the conventional date.
Genesis 26:1 "And there was a famine in the land, beside the first famine that was in the days of Abraham. And Isaac went unto Abimelech king of the Philistines unto Gerar."
Abraham died in this 2432 BC.
Genesis 41:27 "And the seven thin and ill favoured kine that came up after them are seven years; and the seven empty ears blasted with the east wind shall be seven years of famine."
The famine in Egypt, of Joseph, was in 2308 BC.
2532 BC and 2432 BC are about 38 years after 2569 BC and 2469 BC = 2600 years and 2500 years to Jesus' sacrifice April 3, 33 AD, pointing to the life of Jesus of 38 years.
The record of the Pharaoh Unas must be some several years more recent. The date of Unas from 2345 BC should be from 2320 BC = 25 years more recent. Then Pharaoh Unas reigned either 15 or 30 years. If 30 years from 2320 BC = the Pharaoh when Joseph was put in jail, then 30 years to 2290 BC = the year Jacob died 17 years after Jacob entered Egypt. 2290 BC would be 50 year jubiles to Joshua's long day and conquest in 1241 BC.
Ancient Records of Egypt, by James Henry Breasted:
Reign of Teti:
282. "Sabu, also called Ibebi, was a favorite official at the courts if Unis, the last king of the Fifth, and Teti the first king of the Sixth Dynasty. Under both he held the important office of high priest of Ptah at Memphis, and to this oft-repeated title he adds also his other offices, mingled with a long series of self-laudatory epithets and phrases. Of these the inscriptions cheifly consist, but he gives us also a few insteresting statements which throw light on the career of such a noble at court. The inscriptions are rendered below with all repititions, as an unaltered example of such records in the Old Kingdom. In some phrases Sabu's inscription is identical with that of Ptahshepses."
Career under Unis:
283."Attached to King Unis, high priest of Ptah, more honored by the king than any servant. He descended into every barge. A member of the court, when he entered the ways of the southern palace at feasts, Sabu whose beautiful name was Ibebi."
284. "Honored by the king, doing his pleasure, one whom his lord loves, high priest of Ptah, attached to the double house, feast day attendant, prophet of Ptah, prophet of Sokar, Sabu, etc."
285. "Today in the presence of the Son of Re: Teti living forever, high priest of Ptah, more honored by the king than any servant, as master of secret things of every work which his majesty desired should be done; pleasing the heart of his lord every day, high priest of Ptah, Sabu. High priest of Ptah, cup-bearer of the king, master of secret things of the king in his every place, honored by the king, high priest of Ptah, .."
This cup-bearer and high priest may have been Joseph, continuing after the death of Pharaoh Unas (Unis) after the seven years of plenty and the seven years of famine. The seven years of famine ended on 2302 BC. Joseph was born in 2345 BC and would be 43 in 2302 BC and Joseph live 110 years to 2235 BC. Pharaoh Unas ruled for either 15 years or 30 years. 15 years would cover both the seven years of plenty and the seven years of famine. The river stele of Unas depicting starving foreigners was from this seven years of famine. Thus, the Pharaoh Unas lived on into the seven years of famine.
Khnumdjedef may be Joseph because he officiated during the reign of Unas. Also, Khnumdjedef phonetically sounds like Joseph. Only, Joseph's body was taken into Israel almost 1000 years after his death by Joshua.
"Seneb-nebef" sounds phonetically like Joseph.
Then the starving nomads in the relief of Unas should be the strangers coming to Egypt for bread in the seven years of famine when Joseph had kept the grain in store houses from the seven years of plenty. Then this famine both in the time of Joseph and Unas should equal the seven years from 2308 BC to 2301 BC.
Relief showing starving nomads from Unas' causewayat Saqqara.
Genesis 41:56 "And the famine was over all the face of the earth: And Joseph opened all the storehouses, and sold unto the Egyptians; and the famine waxed sore in the land of Egypt.
41:57 And all countries came into Egypt to Joseph for to buy corn; because that the famine was so sore in all lands."
The low Nile rather of Pharaoh Unas was in 2308 BC. Then the second year of famine = the 430th Egyptian sothis year 2307 BC. Joseph was made governor over Egypt eight years earlier in 2315 BC.
"And Israel went into the country of Egypt, into the land of Goshen, on the new moon of the fourth month, in the second year of the third week of the forty-fifth jubilee."
Ancient Book of Jubilees, p.152.
45 X 49 = 2205, + 55; from 4568 BC = 2308 BC. From Adam at 4568 BC = (45 X 49) + (7 X 7) + 7 = 2308 BC. Thus three weeks = (7 X 7) + 7.
The "second year" from 2308 BC = 2307 BC = Egyptian Sothis year 430 from the new sothis cycle in 2737 BC.
Thus, James Legge, who wrote the Chinese Classics in 1860, knew immediately these stars of He and Ho could not tell the seasons in 2315 BC. Then Jacob came down into Egypt in the second year of famine, the 9th year = 7 years plenty - 1 year of famine to start the second year of famine, 2315 BC - 8 = 2307 BC.
April 3, 2307 BC was the full moon = the Passover Friday, March 30, 1281 BC = Jesus' sacrifice Friday, April 3, 33 AD.
Then as the precession of Mercury was solved by Einstein's equation, so also, the forward precession of earth recorded in the time of Yao is also solved by these sun movements.
The first year of Emperor Yao in the Chinese Classics was to be 150 years before Yu in 2169 BC = 2318 BC. Yao reigned 100 years to Shun. With 3 years of overlap with Shun, Yao's first year should be 2315 BC. Yao became emperor when the sun stood still for nine days in spring. To match with Genesis Pharaoh's birthday when Joseph appeared before Pharaoh was April 1. Thus, the sun should stand still for nine days April 1, 2315 BC.
"of the vision of Amram, son of Qahat, son of Levi. ..in the year of his death..in the year one hundred and thirty-six, the year of his death: in the year one hundred and fifty-two of the exile of Israel to Egypt.."

152 years from the sojourn into Egypt in 2307 BC = 2155 BC. From Yao in 2315 BC; 97 years, Shun 50 years, Yu 8 years from 2169 BC = 2161 BC.
2271 BC, 102 years before Yu in 2169 BC, was a 49 year jubile. 2271 BC = 50 year jubiles to Jesus speaking in Luke 4 from Isaiah 61.
"In his 42d year (2274 BC) a brilliant star appeared in Yih (? Crater)"
The Chinese Classics, The reigns of Yaou and Shun, p.112
This brilliant star may have been a supernova.
The number 42 appears in the Bible. 42 months are three and a half years. Sun miracles may be three and a half years apart.
Luke 4:25 "But I tell you of a truth, many widows were in Israel in the days of Elias, when the heaven was shut up three years and six months, when great famine was throughout all the land;
There is one and a half years from Joshua's long day to king Wan's dream.
There is a three and a half years from the beginning of Jesus' ministry September 9, 29 AD or October 7, 29 AD to Jesus' sacrifice April 3, 33 AD. From October 7, 29 AD to Jesus' sacrifice April 3, 33 AD is three years and 178 days (178 days from the fall equinox September 22 to the spring equinox March 20) = three years and one half orbit. The sun may move to the other side of the earth October 7, 29 AD and earth flow into a reverse orbit of the sun, and three and a half orbits later the sun may move back again and earth flow out of the reverse orbit of the sun on April 3, 33 AD.
Nevertheless, two years of reverse orbit, from April 3, 31 AD to April 3, 33 AD would be ample time to build up 7 X 180° 7 X 12 hours, 84 hours, for a long day / night April 3, 33 AD for Jesus to be in the grave a full three days in duration.
The geneology in Matthew 1 is three sets of 14; 3 X 14 = 42.
"In his 29th year, the chief of the Pigmies came to court in token of homage, and offered as tribute their feathers which sank in water."
The Chinese Classics, p.112.
The 29th year from Yao's first year in 2315 BC is 2286 BC. A sun miracle may be taken as an omen to offer a token of homage. And from this 2286 BC are forty years to Yao's 70th year in 2245 BC when was a sun miracle recorded. Thus, perhaps sun miracles 39 years apart to mark the 39 years of Jesus' life from 7 BC to 33 AD. Even this 2245 BC was 38 years to 2207 BC. Again the 38 years of Jesus' life.
Also, this 70 years from Yao/Joseph, the sun stood still for 9 days for Yao the day Joseph was made governor over Egypt at the beginning of the seven years of plenty, 70 years from 2315 BC to this 2245 C. There also was a 70 years, of captivity, of Israel from 591 BC to 521 BC.
"In his (Yao's) 42d year, 2274 BC, there was a brilliant star seen in Yih (Crater). A few years later was the 49 year jubile in 2271 BC. The Children of Israel were 40 years in the wilderness from the Exodus in 1281 BC to Joshua's crossing of the Jordan in 1241 BC on the 49 year jubile.
There were two corrections to the 50 year jubile, the 40 years in the wilderness to 1241 BC, and the 70 years in captivity to 521 BC = 50 year jubiles to Jesus beginning his ministry on Yom Kippur, September 9, 29 AD or October 7, 29 AD.
From Yao's first year in 2315 BC, his 42d year would be 2273 BC - about the 49 year jubile in 2271 BC. Thus, possibly this brilliant star may be connected to a sun miracle to mark, not only a 49 year jubile to Jesus' sacrifice, but a 50 year jubile to Jesus speaking from Isaiah 61 in Luke 4 to begin his ministry on Yom Kippur, Friday, September 9, 29 AD or Friday, October 7, 29 AD.
From 2271 BC are 50 year jubiles to Jesus speaking from Isaiah 61 in Luke 4 on Yom Kippur, September 9, 29 AD or October 9, 29 AD.
Numbers 19:2 "This is the ordinance of the law which the LORD hath commanded, saying, Speak unto the children of Israel, that they bring thee a red heifer without spot, wherein is no blemish, and upon which never came yoke:"
2166 BC was a 7 year of release inside the 49 year jubile. 2159 BC was also 7 year of release inside the 49 year jubile. Probably there was a sun miracle in this same 2159 BC that the Chinese took as an omen to depose Yu.
Ice cores from mount Kilimanjaro contained a dust layer from 2300 BC which matched the low Nile in the reign of Pharaoh Unas = the seven years of famine in Egypt described in Genesis. If there be a full Sothis cycle of 1460 years at the end of the Egyptian Sothis cycle from 2741 BC to 1281 BC we are short 5 years. However, it is widely believed this sothis cycle ended one day earlier, that is the calendar backed up one day every four years, so July 17, 1281 BC is one day before July 16, 1281 BC. Sirius appeared before the sun rose at 4:15 AM, one day earlier in 1281 BC instead of 1277 BC.
August 13, 2019, Sirius rises 20 minutes before the sun like it did on the Egyptian new years, July 16, 2737 BC and July 16, 1281 BC to predict the flooding of the Nile River.
At Qumran, in the Dead Sea Scrolls, is their 364 day calendar to match the 52 weeks of 7 days, and the lunar year calendar. The new year would always be on Wednesday, the fourth day, the day the sun was created in Genesis 1:14 - 1:19.
1 Corinthians 15:45 "And so it is written, The first man Adam was made a living soul; the last Adam was made a quickening spirit."
Thus, Adam is compared to Jesus, Adam born year 800 = 4568 BC = 4600 years to Jesus' sacrifice.
Genesis 5:3 "And Adam lived an hundred and thirty years, and begat a son in his own likeness, after his image; and called his name Seth:
5:4 And the days of Adam after he had begotten Seth were eight hundred years: and he begat sons and daughters:
5:5 And all the days that Adam lived were nine hundred and thirty years: and he died."
Thus, Adam "after" Armenian sothis 5368 BC was year 800, 4568 BC = 44 X 50 year jubiles, 2200 years, to 2368 BC. 4600 years to Jesus' sacrifice divided by 144 generations equals 32 years a generation.
Generations for men are usually 30 years, and generations for women are usually 28 years. Of course in ancient times people did not live so long. And then in ancient Bible times people did live much longer. Thus, 32 years a generation = 144 generations, from Adam born about year 700 Armenian Sothis, 4668 BC, to Jesus born about September 12, 7 BC.
Genesis 11:20 "And Reu lived two and thirty years, and begat Serug:"
Thus, the average generation be 32 years.
A generation is usually between 25 years and 30 years. Many generations were way over 30 years. Abraham was 100 when he fathered Isaac, Isaac was 69 when he fathered Jacob, Jacob was 92 when he fathered Joseph.
This 2368 BC when Jacob was 70 years old. Jacob lived 77 more years to 147 years; 77 = 2 X 38.5 years or two times the age of Jesus. This 2368 BC was 44 times 50 year jubiles from 4568 BC
Or 44 X 49 years + 44 years - the 44 years omitted.
Both 2368 BC and 4568 BC was even 2400 years and 4600 years to Jesus' sacrifice.
From 2369 BC to Jesus' sacrifice April 3, 33 AD, are 49 X 49 year jubliles. 49 X 49 = 4001 years. Jacob was 69 years old in 2369 BC. Isaac was 69 years old when Jacob was born in 2348 BC from 2507 BC.
Then from 4568 BC are 44 X 50 year jubiles to 2368 BC. From 2368 BC are 48 X 50 year jubiles to Jesus' sacrifice April 3, 33 AD.
From Adam's 130th year, 4568 BC - 130 = 4438 BC. That is about 4440 BC = 3200 years from 4440 BC to Joshua's conquest in 1241 BC.
For the Essenes the year began on the fourth day, Wednesday:
Genesis 1:16 "And God made two great lights; the greater light to rule the day, and the lesser light to rule the night: he made the stars also.
1:17 And God set them in the firmament of the heaven to give light upon the earth,
1:18 And to rule over the day and over the night, and to divide the light from the darkness: and God saw that it was good.
1:19 And the evening and the morning were the fourth day."
The Essene movement began 390 years after the destruction of Jerusalem.
The Dead Sea Scrolls, by Peter W. Flint. p.176
From the captivity in 591 BC this is 201 BC. There was a sun miracle witnessed in China just a few years before in 207 BC = 200 years to Jesus' birth, by Lui Bang. Also, from 203 BC are 4 X 49 year jubiles, 196 years, to Jesus' birth in 7 BC.
Genesis 1:1 "In the beginning God created the heaven and the earth"
Genesis 1:1 "In the beginningH7225 GodH430 createdH1254 (H853) the heavenH8064 and the earth.H776"
The word "create", Hebrew H1254 "bara" was something only God can do, such as creating the sun and moon, and doing wonders like moving the sun and moon.
Genesis 1:1 בָּרָא bârâ' baw-raw' A primitive root; (absolutely) to create; (qualified) to cut down (a wood), select, feed (as formative processes): - choose, create (creator), cut down, dispatch, do, make (fat). Total KJV occurrences: 54
"And at the moment of wrath, three hundred and ninety years after having delivered them and caused to sprout from Israel and from Aaron a shoot of the planting, in order to possess his land and to become fat with the good things of his soil. And they realized their sin and knew they were guilty men; but they were like blind persons and for those who look for the path by groping over twenty years."
Damascus Document 4Q266 [4Qa]
Thus, 390 years from 591 BC to 201 BC. 20 years from 591 BC to 571 BC, 600 years = 12 X 50 jubilees to Jesus' speaking from Isaiah 61 in Luke 4.
For the Essenes the Passover was always on a Wednesday. March 26, 8 BC was the Passover, and a Wednesday as well. John the Baptist may have been born on the Passover, Friday, March 18, 7 BC.
Half an orbit before the 17th day of the 7th month = Saturday, September 12, 7 BC, is the 10th day of the first month, Wednesday, March 11, 7 BC - 186 days before.
The first day of the 7th month, the civil new year, Wednesday, August 26, 7 BC.
The Priestly Courses: There were 24 priestly courses. The 24th was Maaziah = Caiaphas. 48 weeks + 4 = 52 courses. 52 weeks a year.
"This calendar records which priestly course is serving during Passover for the first five years of the six-year cycle."
The Dead Sea Scolls, A New Translation. p.321.
"In the first year the festivals begin on the third day from the Sabbath (Tuesday) of the course of the sons of Maaziah is the Passover."
The Dead Sea Scrolls, Religious Thought and Practices Reflected in the Qumran Scrolls, p.170, by Flint.
The Passover 14th of the first month = third day from 1/12 to 1/18.
Thus, the High Priest Caiaphas must have served the temple on the Passover week of Jesus' sacrifice. Thus, the High Priest Caiaphas being on duty that week, on the Passover, must have seen the veil of the temple rent in twain.
Matthew 27:50 "Jesus, when he had cried again with a loud voice, yielded up the ghost.
27:51 And, behold, the veil of the temple was rent in twain from the top to the bottom; and the earth did quake, and the rocks rent;"
Maaziah was the priestly division of Caiaphas, as revealed by a tomb near Bethshemesh recently. The Passover week of Jesus' crucifixion, the third day of the week, Tuesday, March 31, 33 AD. The Passover of Jesus' crucifixion Friday, April 3, 33 AD, the 14th day of the lunar month.
Thus, Caiaphas would be the High Priest that year, as he had been for 15 years, and also his priestly division, if this date is the same week, although the third day of the week was not the Passover - the sixth day of the week was the Passover April 3, 33 AD.
"is the Passover" Caiaphas being in the course of Maaziah would serve the temple on the Passover week that Jesus was crucified.
2737 BC - 1281 BC = 1456 years. However, the completion of the revolution is in itself one year. A 1460 year sothis would be 1461 years. Thus, the sothis one day early = July 17, is 1456 year sothis.
Then Abraham's father Terah died in year 205. This must be sothis year 205 from 2737 BC = 2532 BC. Then Abraham born in 2607 BC would be 75 years old when his father died in 2532 BC. Abraham born in 2607 BC, Isaac be born in 2507 BC, Jacob born when Isaac was 69, not 60, the character 9 being omitted, in 2438 BC, and Jacob enter Egypt when he was 130 years old in 2307 BC.
Adam lived to 130 years, from 4568 BC to 4438 BC or Adam lived 230 years from 4668 BC to 4438 BC. Likewise Daniel may have lived 230 years from 628 BC to 397 BC = 62 weeks of years, 434 years from 402 BC, to Jesus' sacrifice.
From the death of Terah, Abraham's father, 2532 BC is 2525 years before Jesus' birth in 7 BC. 101 X 25 = 2525 or about 101 generations, or 84 generations of 30 years. There may be 144 generations from Adam to Jesus.
Adam born in Armenian sothis year 800 = 4568 BC died at 130 years old in 4538 BC = 1800 years to the new begin Egyptian sothis cycle 2737 BC. Or Adam born in the Armenian Sothis year 700 in the Septuagint, and lived to year 930 = Adam may have lived to 230 years.
Genesis 11:25 "And Nahor lived after he begat Terah an hundred and nineteen years, and begat sons and daughters."
From the Egyptian sothis 2737 BC 119 years later is 2618 BC. Then to Jesus' sacrifice April 3, 33 AD is 2650 years or 53 X 50 year jubiles.
Counting back from Jacob entering Egypt when he was 130 years old in 2307 BC to Joseph's birth in 2345 BC. Because Joseph was 30 years old in 2315 BC, born 2345 BC. Then counting 2 X 7 years, the years Jacob served for Rachel, 14 years, to Jacob's first born Rueben about 2360 BC when Jacob was 77 years old = 7 years after Jacob left for Haran. Jacob was born in 2438 BC, and Jacob would be 70 when he arrived to work for Laban.
Thus, Jacob would be about 38 when he took Esau's blessing, and 38 years later when Jacob married Leah, Laban's daughter. Thus, these 38 year periods were a type of Jesus' perfect life, from September 12, 7 BC to April 3, 33 AD.
The dates work far better if Abraham left Haran when his father died, in Egyptian sothis year 205 from 2737 BC = 2532 BC.
Note "The emperor's son Che was deposed after being appointed nine years."
The Chinese Classics, The Annals of the Bamboo Books, p.
The king Che before Yao, reigned 10 years. All things being correct, counting Yao's first year after this 10 years can make Yao's first year in agreement.
The chronology does not work unless Jacob entered Egypt in 2307 BC = 2300 years before Jesus' birth. This 2307 BC must equal year 430 Egyptian Sothis from 2737 BC. A full sothis cycle from 2737 BC to 1281 BC of 1456 years. The first appearing of Sirius 4:15 AM before dawn, New Years was July 17 instead of July 16 in 1282 BC - one day equals this 4 years from 1460 years = 1456 years.
Thus, Isaac must have been 69 not 60 when Jacob was born. Thus, Abraham must have left Haran when his father Terah died, when Abraham was 75 years old and Terah died in Egyptian sothis year 205, from 2737 BC = 2532 BC. 2532 BC - 75 = 2607 BC = Abraham's birth 2600 years before Jesus' birth in 7 BC.
Abraham passed through Palestine in his 75th year in drought would come into Egypt when the three great pyramids of Giza were built. Khufu, dynasty IV, built the Great Pyramid. 2606 BC - 2583 BC. Should be 40 years more recent, 2566 BC - 2543 BC. Because Pharaoh Unas must be 40 years more recent to be the Pharaoh of the seven years of famine. Unas must have reigned about 20 years, not from 2367 BC, but from about 2327 BC to the second year of famine in 2307 BC.
There is a stone drawing of starving foreigners coming to Pharaoh Unas for bread. This was a wide spread famine in the Mediterranean and matches the drought and fires described in the falling Sun of Phaethon.
In the story of Phaethon, the sun fell from the sky = the sun passed 180° through the zodiac, and earth flowed into a reverse orbit of the sun.
This 40 years more recent may be the sothis cycle. The Exodus was at the end of the 1460 year sothis cycle in 1281 BC, and not on 1321 BC. Thus Unas be Pharaoh in 2315 BC to begin the seven years of plenty.
The great pyramid was built over a 100 or 200 year period. The sides were aligned with true north. Because of precession, 26,000 years earth's 23.5° tilt pivots 360°, earth would have shifted one degree every 72 years. Thus, the great pyramid's sides should be and were moved about one or two degrees during construction. The Great Pyramid: Measures of Time And the Precession of the Equinoxes.
Thus, Abraham at 75 years old when he left Haran 2531 BC would have seen this pyramid just as it was completed. Thus, the new copper cap stone would gleam in the sunlight.
Abraham was 75 in 2531 BC; 38 years from his birth in 2607 = 2568 BC; another 38 years is 2531 BC.
"In Hwang-te's (Huangdi) 50th year (October 18, 2607 BC), in autumn, in the 7th month, on the day Kang-shin (57 of cycle 60), (17th day of the 7th month = Noah's ark rested, Genesis 8:4 = 2600 years before Jesus' birth September 12, 7 BC) phoenixes, male and female arrived." In Huangdi's 20th year, from the new moon at the beginning of the year, day one of cycle sixty, January 27, 2636 BC.
The sun was in Aquarius in January 2636 BC. The first of the 12 zodiac constellations. The date the 17th lunar day of the 7th month may be a prophesy of Jesus born the 17th day of the 7th month, about September 13, 7 BC. Thus, Abraham born 2600 years before Jesus to the day.
In Chinese ti or di for King or God is the same word as divine. Huangdi = the yellow emperor. Also, the Chinese Ba for father is the same as the Hebrew Abba.
Mark 14:36 "And he said, Abba, Father, all things are possible unto thee; take away this cup from me: nevertheless not what I will, but what thou wilt."
100 years before this 2636 BC was the Egyptian sothis cycle 2737 BC.
Genesis 11:32 "And the days of Terah were two hundred and five years: and Terah died in Haran."
Genesis 12:4 "So Abram departed, as the LORD had spoken unto him; and Lot went with him: and Abram was seventy and five years old when he departed out of Haran."
Terah died in year 205 from the next Egyptian sothis cycle in 2737 BC when Abraham was 75 years old = 2532 BC.
Egyptian sothis = 2737 BC. Chinese counting of 60 = 2636 BC.
Huangdi's first year would be 2657 BC, 53 X 50 year jubiles of 2650 years to Jesus' birth.
Genesis 16:16 "And Abram was fourscore and six years old, when Hagar bare Ishmael to Abram."
Abraham born in 2607 BC would be 86 years old in 2521 BC. That is 2550 years, 51 jubiles of 50 years, before Jesus was to begin his ministry at Yom Kippur, the 50 year jubile, Friday, September 9, 29 AD, or October 7, 29 AD.
Genesis 16:3 "And Sarai Abram's wife took Hagar her maid the Egyptian, after Abram had dwelt ten years in the land of Canaan, and gave her to her husband Abram to be his wife."
Genesis 21:5 "And Abraham was an hundred years old, when his son Isaac was born unto him."
Genesis 18:14 "Is any thing too hard for the LORD? At the time appointed I will return unto thee, according to the time of life, and Sarah shall have a son."
The return of the year was in the new year, the seventh month = September / October. Jesus must have been born on the 17th day of the seventh month, September 12, 7 BC.
Thus, when Abraham was 86 years old would be 2521 BC. 2521 BC be 2550 years before the jubile of 29 AD when Jesus spoke from Isaiah 61 to begin his ministry. By legend Chinese emperor Huangdi lived 100 years to 2557 BC. Then in the next emperor's 38th year would be this 2521 BC, and perhaps a sun miracle and a change of emperors.
Then there were 38 more years to 2482 BC, emperor Chuen-Heuh's first year. Then 13 more years to 2468 BC, when Chuen-Heuh changed the calendar perhaps when there was a sun miracle, when Abraham went to offer up Isaac as a type of Christ, 2500 years before Jesus' crucifixion in April 3, 33 AD. Thus, all these 38 year periods point to Jesus' perfect life of 38 years from September 12, 7 BC to April 3, 33 AD.
"Every 20 years the new moon appeared at the winter solstice at dawn..projecting ahead 19 times, 380 years, when Huang-di became immortal and ascended into Heaven."
The Grand Scribes Records, Volume II, p.236
Sun miracles were often recorded in China 38 years apart, the 38 years of Jesus' perfect life. Thus, this 380 years is 38 years X 10 times.
From Huang di in 2656 BC - 380 years to 2276 BC = 39 years from Yao's first year when the sun stood still for nine days April 1, 2315 BC to 2276 BC. In Yao's 42d year 2274 BC "a brilliant star appeared in Yih". A reverse orbit of two years may have begun in 2276 BC to 2274 BC.
"In his (Yao) 76th year, the super intendant of Works smote the hordes of Ts'aou and Wei, and subdued them"
From 2315 BC 77 years is 2239 BC, that is a year 38, sin-chow, of cycle 60. Also 77 years = 2 X 38.5 years.
"In his (Yao) 19th year, he ordered the minister of Works to undertake the regulation of the Ho"
From 2315 BC 18 years is 2297 BC, is year 39 of cycle 60.
From Huangdi's first year, 2657 BC, 380 years = 2277 BC. Jesus' life of 38 years times ten. From Yao's and Joseph's first year, 2315 BC to 2277 BC = 38 years. Jesus ascended April 5, 33 AD when he was 38 years old.
Or, from 2635 BC, 380 years = 2255 BC.
That is, from Huangdi's reckoning of the cycle 60 in his 20th year, January 26, 2636 BC. The next year is 2635 BC.
"In Yao's 61st year, he ordered the baron K'wan of Ts'ung to regulate the Ho river."
Yao's first year was 2315 BC and his 61st year was 2255 BC. A sun miracle then could affect the weather patterns and raise the level of the Ho river.
From Huangdi's first year in 2657 BC are 44 X 60 year cycles to 17 BC when was the beginning of Herod's rebuilding of the temple.
Nevertheless, Huangdi counted the 60 year and 60 day cycles from his 20th year on the new moon and phoenixes = sun miracle, January 26, 2636 BC.
From 18 BC is 50 years to Jesus' sacrifice April 3, 33 AD. From 2657 BC are 53 X 50 year periods to Jesus' birth September 12, 7 BC.
Many emperors died on years ending X18 BC - probably on the omen of a sun miracle, and would be in even 50 year cycles to Jesus' sacrifice to point to Jesus' coming. Nahor died in year 119, from the Egyptian sothis 2737 BC = 2618 BC. 50 years later, after 18 BC, on April 3, 33 AD Jesus gave his life and rose again Sunday, April 5, 33 AD.
Emperor Haou died in his third year from 1720 BC = 1718 BC.
In Chuen-Heuh's 13th year, 2503 BC, he invented calendric calculations. There may have been a sun miracle at Isaac's birth in 2507 BC that was an omen to Chuen-Heuh in 2503 BC.
In Chuen-Heuh's 78th year he died. Then In Chuen-Heuh would be 100 when he died.
78 years from 2515 BC is 2437 BC. Isaac born in 2507 BC would be 70 in 2437 BC when Jacob was born.
"A yellow dragon served as the omen for Chuen-heuh to become emperor" in year one of cycle sixty 2515 BC.
Chuen-heuh became emperor in 2515 BC, his 13th year, when he made calendaric calculations, would be this 2503 BC:
103 BC = yenfung shet'ekih = yanmeng shetige = year 13 of cycle 60 = 2503 BC.
Abraham rescued Lot in about 2517 BC.
Genesis 14:5 "And in the fourteenth year came Chedorlaomer, and the kings that were with him, and smote the Rephaims in Ashteroth Karnaim, and the Zuzims in Ham, and the Emims in Shaveh Kiriathaim,"
Genesis 14:17 "And the king of Sodom went out to meet him after his return from the slaughter of Chedorlaomer, and of the kings that were with him, at the valley of Shaveh, which is the king's dale.
14:18 And Melchizedek king of Salem brought forth bread and wine: and he was the priest of the most high God."
Abraham was born about 2607 BC, less 75 years when Abraham left Haran, less this 14 years is about 2518 BC or 2515 BC. 2516 BC was a 49 year jubile = 52 X 49 years to April 3, 33 AD. Thus, a jubile when things are to be returned.
Thus, the dragon of Chuen-Heuh in 2515 BC and possibly a sun miracle to aid Abraham in this battle.
This battle appears very like the battle of Gideon.
Thus, Melchizedek points to Jesus' sacrifice.
This also was the pattern for emperor Wu's first year. Wu became emperor in 1174 BC, 12 years after his father Wan died in 1186 BC. Thus, Wu was king for 12 years before he became emperor = 23rd year of cycle 60, 1174 BC.
"When Wu made an end of of Yin, the year was kang-yin, 27 of cycle 60. Twenty-four years after, in the year kea-yin, 51 of cycle 60, the vases were finally places in the city of Lo. From that time to King Yew were 257 years; - giving to us in all 281 years. From sin-mao, 28 of cycle 60, the 1st year of Woo, to kang-woo, 7th of cycle 60 = 770 BC, the last year of Yew, were 292 years."
The Chinese Classics, p.158.
770 BC back 292 years is 1062 BC, back to Wu in 1174 BC is 112 years. Wu in 22 of cycle 60, 1174 BC. Sin mao would be year 28 of cycle 60, the last year of Wu, 1169 BC.
24 years later, 1174 BC - 24 = 1150 BC = the phoenixes, the sun miracle of 1150 BC in the 18th year of King Ching.
From the last year of emperor Ch'aou's 19th year in 1087 BC to emperor Muh's first year in 965 BC is 120 years, a gap of no Chinese history of two 60 year cycles.
Not 257 years but 370 = a difference of 113 years. Not 292 years but 405 years = a difference of 113 years. The real difference is two cycles of 60 = 120 years of unrecorded history in China; 113 + 7 years.
The Exodus, the full moon, Friday, March 30, 1281 BC:
Luke 3:1 "Now in the fifteenth year of the reign of Tiberius Caesar, Pontius Pilate being governor of Judaea, and Herod being tetrarch of Galilee, and his brother Philip tetrarch of Ituraea and of the region of Trachonitis, and Lysanias the tetrarch of Abilene,
3:2 Annas and Caiaphas being the high priests, the word of God came unto John the son of Zacharias in the wilderness."
The fifteenth year of Tiberius was in 29 AD because Augustus died August 19, 14 AD. 14 + 15 = 29. Jesus was baptized of John in about March 29 AD. The Passover probably was Friday, March 18, 29 AD. Jesus began his three and a half year ministry half a year later about his birthday in September 17, 29 AD to his crucifixion April 3, 33 AD.
John 2:20 "Then said the Jews, Forty and six years was this temple in building, and wilt thou rear it up in three days?"
Some suggest Jesus was crucified Thursday instead of Friday to make three 24 hour days to Jesus' resurrection. God moving the sun 3 X 24 hours west to east = 3 X 360° with earth's rotation, the Friday night of Jesus' crucifixion, into Saturday, would fulfill these three days. Jesus' sacrifice can only be Friday, April 3, 33 AD.
Thus, 46 years back from the Passover in 29 AD is 18 BC when the temple was rebuilt by Herod in his 18th year from 35 BC. The temple was continually being rebuilt to 70 AD.
Jesus would be 24 years old when Caiaphas became High Priest in 18 AD. Joseph was 23 years in Egypt when his father Jacob and his brothers came in 2307 BC. Annas became High Priest in 6 AD when Jesus was 12 years old.
From Analemma.com:
In a half orbit of 186.6 days and 178.6 days: The difference in orbit speed is +8 minutes and -8 minutes. That adds up to 16 minutes in a 24 hour day. However, over 48 hours that adds up to 32 minutes. I believe the speed of earth is the factor. Because earth's reverse orbit is sped up 48 hours a year, earth's half orbit plus earth's next half orbit - a complete reverse orbit year - must add up to 48 hours less and still be 365 days and 5 hours.
Because at the same speed and distance of earth's orbit in reverse there would be 367.24 days unless earth's reverse orbit is sped up two days, 48 hours, because rotation is against orbit in earth's reverse orbit. Then the first half orbit must be applied to 24 hours, half of the sped up 48 hours.
The Equation of Time and the Analemma point to the difference between the first half reverse orbit and the second half reverse orbit. Thus, the difference of 32 minutes is not from the normal orbit, but from the sped up half of 48 hours spread over the reverse orbit.
The speed of earth must speed up 32 minutes in the second half reverse orbit when earth is nearest the sun. Thus, the first half orbit is 23:28 hours shorter and the second half orbit 24:32 hours shorter. Two 180° movements east of the sun, to begin and end a half reverse orbit, add up to 24 hours. Thus, the first half orbit is missing 32 minutes in elapsed time.
King Wan's dream in his first year as king, on the six day moon, in the first month of spring, most likely was February 5, 1239 BC. Two years earlier was the crossing of the river Jordan by Israel Sunday, February 4, 1241 BC = the sun moved to the other side of earth and the two year reverse orbit begun.
The missing time of the first half reverse orbit from 188/365.24 X the 48 hours = not 24 hours 40 minutes but 23 hours and 20 minutes. The faster half is the fall winter half. Earth is closest the sun January 3. In 1241 BC earth was closest the sun in November. The faster half orbit is in winter when earth is closest to the sun. The more sped up half orbit must be the winter half.
We are still missing 40 minutes just as in the Missing Day Story, till the other half orbit is added.
Jericho may have fallen Saturday February 17, 1241 BC and the walls fallen down from an earthquake caused from a sun miracle.
Most likely there was not a sun miracle at the fall of Jericho. Most likely king Wan's dream was February 5, 1239 BC when the sun moved back and earth flowed out of the reverse orbit of the sun. Thus, two years previous be when Joshua and Israel crossed the river Jordan, February 4, 1241 BC and the sun move to the other side of the earth for a long day that Sunday, February 4, 1241 BC and earth flow into a reverse orbit of the sun. Then no sun miracle at the fall of Jericho, February 17, 1241 BC.
All the calculations here work the same way either way. Most likely king Wan's dream in his first year to his 35th year at the lunar eclipse of September 24, 1205 BC = 35th year the current year = king Wan's first year in 1239 BC.
Then king Wan's first year could begin February 5, 1239 BC, at the sun miracle on the sixth day of the moon. It was written king Wan ruled over two thirds of China before his son Wu became emperor. King Wan's first year must be 1239 BC because the lunar eclipse on his 35th year probably was day 13 of 60, September 24, 1205 BC. Thus, king Wan's dream must be February 5, 1239 BC.
His battle with Emperor Wending in Wending's 12th year, February 5, 1239 BC, the first year of king Wan, that day in which he had victory and which he described the sun miracle in detail in what is known as king Wan's Dream. Thus, the sun miracle and his appointment of Heaven. Then in his 35th year = the current year; 34 years from 1239 BC to 1205 BC, king Wan stated that lunar eclipse was untimely.
The lunar eclipse was on day 13 of cycle 60. A lunar eclipse is normally on lunar day 15. Only day 13 was out of the 60 day cycle. A lunar eclipse can never be on lunar day 13. The Chinese counted the new moon exactly when the moon passed by the sun. Sun miracles and eclipses were omens to the Chinese for a change in emperor.
Thus, this lunar eclipse record on day 13 probably was September 24, 1205 BC. Chinese count the current year. Thus from king Wan's dream king in Wan's first year February 5, 1239 BC, his 35th year = the current year and not 35 years later, was this September 24, 1205 BC.
Barak and Deborah fought on the same day as Joshua at the battle of Merom against the same King Jabin, the sun moving 180° with earth's rotation for a long day on this battle February 5, 1240 BC. Thus, the sun stood still at noon that day also for Joshua to get the victory.
Joshua 11:1 "And it came to pass, when Jabin king of Hazor had heard those things, that he sent to Jobab king of Madon, and to the king of Shimron, and to the king of Achshaph,"
Judges 4:7 "And I will draw unto thee to the river Kishon Sisera, the captain of Jabin's army, with his chariots and his multitude; and I will deliver him into thine hand."
The fall of Jericho must be February 17, 1241 BC. Yet, there may not have been a sun miracle that day.
Joshua 6:15 "And it came to pass on the seventh day, that they rose early about the dawning of the day, and compassed the city after the same manner seven times: only on that day they compassed the city seven times."
A sun miracle at the crossing of the Jordan, February 4, 1241 BC and Joshua's long day August 10, 1241 BC and king Wan's dream February 5, 1239 BC two years later. Thus, from Joshua's long day one and a half orbits to king Wan's dream the missing 40 minutes are regained.
Then we may have found the 40 minutes in the Missing Day Story. 11 PM August 23, 1241 BC or 11 PM August 9, 1241 BC, may have been when Gideon attacked the Midianites at the beginning of the middle watch that year, slew 120,000 men and travelled 60 miles before turning back in victory before sunrise. Not possible in the dark and not possible in just the few hours of the morning twilight.
However, Gideon may have had twilight. In Judges 8:13 Gideon returned before the sun ascended. The picture is the sun was not in the sky all those hours till the sun rose. Thus, the dimness described in Isaiah 9. In August there are only five hours from the middle watch to sunrise at the 33rd parallel of Israel. It was dark from sunset at 6:35 PM to sun rise at 4:47 AM = five hours from the middle watch to sunrise.
Gideon may have had moon light to fight the battle.
Joshua's long day may have been Saturday, August 24, 1241 BC that would equal at noon, the first quarter moon rising in northern Israel, upon Gideon, and upon the town of Ajalon in Zebulun near to Nazareth.
Nevertheless, the context of the setting moon in the west in the valley of Ajalon, and the sun at noon on Gibeon makes the most sense = Joshua's long day, lunar day 21, on Saturday, August 10, 1241 BC.
The Jewish people had three watches in the night. The Romans had four watches in the night.
People can walk only about 20 miles in a 12 hour day. In those days people may have been able to walk 30 miles a day. Thus, with 36 hours of twilight = the sun standing still just below the western horizon, Gideon could travel this 60 miles before the sun rose in the west.
Nevertheless, the sun may rise in the east.
Gideon needed light, even twilight, to fight the battle.
Possibly the twilight of the battle of Gideon was the sun standing still and also being dimmed for 12 hours or the sun stopped = moved 180° with earth's rotation = below the horizon = evening or morning twilight.
Joshua asked God to "damam"H1826 the sun = to dim the sun, and also to stop the sun.
Joshua 10:12 "Then spake Joshua to the LORD in the day when the LORD delivered up the Amorites before the children of Israel, and he said in the sight of Israel, Sun, stand thou stillH1826 upon Gibeon; and thou, Moon, in the valley of Ajalon."
H1826 דָּמַם dâmam daw-mam' A primitive root (compare H1724, H1820); to be dumb; by implication to be astonished, to stop; also to perish: - cease, be cut down (off), forbear, hold peace, quiet self, rest, be silent, keep (put to) silence, be (stand), still, tarry, wait. Total KJV occurrences: 30
Gideon's battle, perhaps being the same time, or six months half an orbit earlier, of Joshua's Long Day, the sun may pass west to east. Then at Joshua's request, the sun stand still at noon for 24 hours, then proceed to set in the east that Saturday, August 24, 1241 BC (or Saturday, August 10, 1241 BC) . Then Sunday, August 25, 1241 BC, or Sunday, August 11, 1241 BC, the sun suddenly and brilliantly rise in the west.
Joshua's long day must be 24 hours longer than usual, and thus the three hundred men with Gideon would also grow faint.
Judges 8:5 "And he said unto the men of Succoth, Give, I pray you, loaves of bread unto the people that follow me; for they be faint, and I am pursuing after Zebah and Zalmunna, kings of Midian.
8:6 And the princes of Succoth said, Are the hands of Zebah and Zalmunna now in thine hand, that we should give bread unto thine army?"
Judges 8:12 "And when Zebah and Zalmunna fled, he pursued after them, and took the two kings of Midian, Zebah and Zalmunna, and discomfited all the host.
8:13 And Gideon the son of Joash returned from battle before the sun was up,"
Joshua 12:2 "Sihon king of the Amorites, who dwelt in Heshbon, and ruled from Aroer, which is upon the bank of the river Arnon, and from the middle of the river, and from half Gilead, even unto the river Jabbok, which is the border of the children of Ammon;"
Habakkuk 3:4 "And his brightness was as the light (the sunrise); he had horns coming out of his hand: and there was the hiding of his power."
Gideon's men were hungry because this was a long day of + 12 hours or + 24 hours, and possibly was Joshua's long day, and the men would have gone more than 24 hours without food. Just 10 days previous Joshua's long day would be Yom Kippur when Israel would fast for 24 hours.
The next day was Sunday the first day of the week when the sun suddenly ascended as it would on Jesus' resurrection, and following was Monday the second day of the week.
Joshua 10:32 "And the LORD delivered Lachish into the hand of Israel, which took it on the second day,"
The second day of the week is Monday = Joshua taking Lachish.
Yet there should be darkness when Gideon fought his battle. This darkness is spoken of in Isaiah 9. This darkness would match the darkness of the Friday night Jesus was in the grave. Gideon returned before the sun ascended. If the same time of Joshua's long day, the sun may ascend in the west after a long night. A long night of about 36 hours would be enough time for Gideon to chase the Midianites 60 miles.
The sun rising in the west and setting in the east in 12 hours would equal a normal day of 12 hours. Thus, the sun may travel 540° east, but the necessary effect of 48 longer hours to counter two fewer days in a year's worth of a reverse orbit of the sun, may need even more longer hours. Then a long night before Joshua's long day may be needed to give enough hours, a net total of 48 hours of long days.
Joshua 10:26 "And afterward Joshua smote them, and slew them, and hanged them on five trees: and they were hanging upon the trees until the evening.
Exodus 17:12 "But Moses' hands were heavy; and they took a stone, and put it under him, and he sat thereon; and Aaron and Hur stayed up his hands, the one on the one side, and the other on the other side; and his hands were steady until the going down of the sun."
The word for "going down" H935bow in Exodus 17:12 and Joshua 10:27, is different than the word for sunset H3996mabow in Joshua 1:4.
Joshua 1:4b "and untoH5704 the greatH1419 seaH3220 toward the going downH3996 of the sun,H8121 shall beH1961 your coast.H1366"
Joshua 10:27a "And it came to passH1961 at the timeH6256 of the going downH935 of the sun,H8121 that JoshuaH3091 commanded,H6680 and they took them downH3381 off the trees,H4480 H5921 H6086 and castH7993 them intoH413 the caveH4631"
10:27 "And it came to pass at the time of the going down of the sun, that Joshua commanded, and they took them down off the trees, and cast them into the cave wherein they had been hid, and laid great stones in the cave's mouth, which remain until this very day."
Thus, the sun atH6256 the end of Joshua's long day may have set in the east instead of the west. Nevertheless, the picture is of the sun above at noon and the moon in the west above the Mediterranean Sea for 24 hours. Then the moon continuing to set in the west and the sun then continuing in six more hours to set in the west.
H6256 עֵת ‛êth ayth From H5703; time, especially (adverbially with preposition) now, when, etc.: - + after, [al-] ways, X certain, + continually, + evening, long, (due) season, so [long] as, [even-, evening-, noon-] tide, ([meal-], what) time, when. Total KJV occurrences: 296
Nevertheless, this Saturday August 10, 1241 BC may have begun as a normal day. Only this was the half orbit point when the sun and moon and planets could all move back and earth flow out of the reverse orbit of the sun. The half orbit point from the crossing of the Jordan River February 4, 1241 BC, and the half orbit point from when the sun may return on king Wan's dream, February 5, 1239 BC.
Either the sun stood still in the sky for 24 hours and earth continued in a reverse orbit of the sun. Or, the sun stood still in the sky for 12 hours and earth flowed into a reverse orbit of the sun.
The moon 21 day moon on this August 10, 1241 BC, would stand over the west, the Ajalon valley where Joshua was persuing, and the sun stay in the middle of the sky for 24 hours. Thus, the sun at noon would soon be setting in the west and the sunlight be blinding the vision of the Israelites as they pursued the Amorites. Thus the sun did not proceed to set for 24 hours.
Joshua 8:29 "And the king of Ai he hanged on a tree until eventide: and as soon as the sun was down, Joshua commanded that they should take his carcase down from the tree, and cast it at the entering of the gate of the city, and raise thereon a great heap of stones, that remaineth unto this day."
Joshua 8:29 "And the kingH4428 of AiH5857 he hangedH8518 onH5921 a treeH6086 untilH5704 eventide:H6256 H6153 and as soon as the sunH8121 was down,H935 "
The same word for the sun was "down" H935 in both Joshua 8:29 and Joshua 10:27..
Likewise, in the same chapter 1 of Joshua:
Joshua 1:15 "Until the LORD have given your brethren rest, as he hath given you, and they also have possessed the land which the LORD your God giveth them: then ye shall return unto the land of your possession, and enjoy it, which Moses the LORD'S servant gave you on this side Jordan toward the sunrising."
"toward the sunrising" that is the east. On Joshua's long day the east may be toward the sun setting. And again, a sudden sunrise in the east, both Saturday, February 17, 1241 BC and Sunday August 25, 1241 BC. Or both Saturday, February 3, 1241 BC to Sunday, February 4, 1241 BC and Saturday, August 10, 1241 BC to Sunday, August 11, 1241 BC.
Yet, we only know the sun stood still for 12 or 24 hours for Joshua's long day, August 10, 1241 BC and for 12 hours on February 5, 1239 BC.
Judges 5:31 "So let all thine enemies perish, O LORD: but let them that love him be as the sun when he goeth forth in his might! And the land had rest forty years."
Judges 8:13 "And Gideon the son of Joash returned from battle before the sun was up,"
Judges 8:28 "Thus was Midian subdued before the children of Israel, so that they lifted up their heads no more. And the country was in quietness forty years in the days of Gideon."
The same forty years from the same year of 1241 BC of Joshua's long day. The sun may ascend suddenly in the east the next day from Saturday, August 10, 1241 BC, Sunday August 11, 1241 BC. There are many combinations where the sun may move suddenly from the east.
Here are ten verses with sunrising:
Numbers 21:11 "And they journeyed from Oboth, and pitched at Ijeabarim, in the wilderness which is before Moab, toward the sunrising."
Numbers 34:15 "The two tribes and the half tribe have received their inheritance on this side Jordan near Jericho eastward, toward the sunrising."
Deuteronomy 4:41 "Then Moses severed three cities on this side Jordan toward the sunrising;"
Deuteronomy 4:47 "And they possessed his land, and the land of Og king of Bashan, two kings of the Amorites, which were on this side Jordan toward the sunrising;"
Joshua 1:15 "Until the LORD have given your brethren rest, as he hath given you, and they also have possessed the land which the LORD your God giveth them: then ye shall return unto the land of your
