Israel`s months in relation to the Lord`s return.

SUMMARY OF MAIN EVENTS

The Peace Treaty - Adar

The month of Adar is the time of rejoicing of deliverance from enemies. It is the last month of the Jewish year and the happiest in the calendar. This rejoicing will be after God deals with the Russian Federation on Israel`s mountains.                                                 

The Temple Sacrifices - Cheshvan

The month of Cheshvan is the only month that does not have a holiday but is reserved for the time of the Messiah to inaugurate the third temple. This will be appropriate for Israel to prepare by starting their sacrifices.                                                                                                                        

The Temple Desecration - Tammuz

The month of Tammuz is when Israel mourns the destruction of its temple. Sadly this will be when the anti-Christ sets up the Abomination in the temple, thus desecrating it.                            

Jesus` Return - Kislev

The month of Kislev is a time of celebrating the defeat of the armies of Babylon who laid siege to Jerusalem. This is exactly what will happen when all the armies of the world surround Jerusalem and the Lord delivers them from all their enemies. It is celebrated as the Festival of Lights. Jesus is the Light of the world.                    

Israel Mourns -  Tevet

When the Lord reveals Himself to the people of Israel, in Jerusalem, they are devastated for they realise as a nation they had rejected their Messiah. Thus they go into a month of mourning, each tribe family by themselves.                                                     

The Temple Cleansing - Tevet/Shevat

The month of Shevat makes the beginning of a `new year` for trees. It is the season in which the earliest-blooming trees emerge from their winter sleep. This can only happen when the Lord brings forth the living waters from under the Mount of Olives, bringing life giving water throughout the land. This water then will be used to cleanse the temple, priests and vessels.                                                                                                                                                                                                           

Celebrating - Adar 15^th The month of Adar is the time of celebration of victory over their enemies. Most appropriate for the Lord`s deliverance of the nation of Israel.

And if the tribulation is only 3.5 years long?

The Church at Philadelphia actually mentions a tribulation that the believers will go through (which is not the great tribulation, which the unbelievers will go through).

Revelation 3:10 (AV)
10 Because thou hast kept the word of my patience, I also will keep thee from the hour of temptation, which shall come upon all the world, to try them that dwell upon the earth.

Revelation 13:5–18 (AV)
5 And there was given unto him a mouth speaking great things and blasphemies; and power was given unto him to continue forty and two months.
6 And he opened his mouth in blasphemy against God, to blaspheme his name, and his tabernacle, and them that dwell in heaven.
7 And it was given unto him to make war with the saints, and to overcome them: and power was given him over all kindreds, and tongues, and nations.
8 And all that dwell upon the earth shall worship him, whose names are not written in the book of life of the Lamb slain from the foundation of the world.
9 If any man have an ear, let him hear.
10 He that leadeth into captivity shall go into captivity: he that killeth with the sword must be killed with the sword. Here is the patience and the faith of the saints.
11 And I beheld another beast coming up out of the earth; and he had two horns like a lamb, and he spake as a dragon.
12 And he exerciseth all the power of the first beast before him, and causeth the earth and them which dwell therein to worship the first beast, whose deadly wound was healed.
13 And he doeth great wonders, so that he maketh fire come down from heaven on the earth in the sight of men,
14 And deceiveth them that dwell on the earth by the means of those miracles which he had power to do in the sight of the beast; saying to them that dwell on the earth, that they should make an image to the beast, which had the wound by a sword, and did live.
15 And he had power to give life unto the image of the beast, that the image of the beast should both speak, and cause that as many as would not worship the image of the beast should be killed.
16 And he causeth all, both small and great, rich and poor, free and bond, to receive a mark in their right hand, or in their foreheads:
17 And that no man might buy or sell, save he that had the mark, or the name of the beast, or the number of his name.
18 Here is wisdom. Let him that hath understanding count the number of the beast: for it is the number of a man; and his number is Six hundred threescore and six.

Daniel 12:11–12 (AV)
11 And from the time that the daily sacrifice shall be taken away, and the abomination that maketh desolate set up, there shall be a thousand two hundred and ninety days.
12 Blessed is he that waiteth, and cometh to the thousand three hundred and five and thirty days.

The 70th Week of Daniel is not one seven year tribulation but two three and a half year tribulations:

1st for believers (shown above)

2nd for the world of unbelievers (the great tribulation).

The Bible divides this time into two 3.5 year time periods thusly:

Revelation 11:3 (AV)
3 And I will give power unto my two witnesses, and they shall prophesy a thousand two hundred and threescore days, clothed in sackcloth.

Revelation 12:6 (AV)
6 And the woman fled into the wilderness, where she hath a place prepared of God, that they should feed her there a thousand two hundred and threescore days.

Revelation 11:2 (AV)
2 But the court which is without the temple leave out, and measure it not; for it is given unto the Gentiles: and the holy city shall they tread under foot forty and two months.

Revelation 13:5 (AV)
5 And there was given unto him a mouth speaking great things and blasphemies; and power was given unto him to continue forty and two months.

Daniel 7:25 (AV)
25 And he shall speak great words against the most High, and shall wear out the saints of the most High, and think to change times and laws: and they shall be given into his hand until a time and times and the dividing of time.

Daniel 12:7 (AV)
7 And I heard the man clothed in linen, which was upon the waters of the river, when he held up his right hand and his left hand unto heaven, and sware by him that liveth for ever that it shall be for a time, times, and an half; and when he shall have accomplished to scatter the power of the holy people, all these things shall be finished.

Revelation 12:14 (AV)
14 And to the woman were given two wings of a great eagle, that she might fly into the wilderness, into her place, where she is nourished for a time, and times, and half a time, from the face of the serpent.

The (one) rapture will occur:

PRE great tribulation

MID 70th Week of Daniel

POST believer's tribulation

What alluded the three eschatology all these years was the correct understanding of the 70th Week of Daniel. Two three and a half year tribulations rather than one seven year tribulation.

BTW, these are figured on the prophetic 360 day year calendar (from which Sir Robert Anderson figured the precise day Jesus rode into the city of Jerusalem on the foal of a donkey 173,880 days after the decree of Artaxerxes Longimanus to rebuild city of Jerusalem circa 445 BCE).

Hi JohnD,

Thank you for your contribution. Now we need to consider what Jesus said -

` And if those days had not been shortened, no flesh would be saved, but for the elect`s sake those days will be shortened.` (Matt. 24:21)

`Those days` refer to the time from the AOD (Abomination of Desolation) that Jesus referred to earlier, (Matt. 24: 15). As we know Daniel`s last `week` is of 7 years, then the shortened time is before that. See my diagram, (6 yrs & 11 months)

Also you are mixing up what is spoken to the Body of Christ and what is said to Israel. Get those confused and you end in a muddle.
