PropheticPerspectiveJournal: The Time Of The 2nd Coming? (A New Prediction?)

The Time Of The 2nd Coming?

Jack Kelley

Q. I have wondered if Suleiman the Magnificent ever gave a decree (in the 1500’s) to rebuild and restore Jerusalem like Cyrus did?  I know it was exact to the day that Jesus rode into Jerusalem on the donkey from the day Cyrus (?) gave the decree.  Might there be a double fulfillment of prophecy to know when the Second Coming to earth of the Messiah will be?

A. It was the Persian King Artaxerxes Longimonus who issued the decree to restore and rebuild Jerusalem in 445 BC (Nehemiah 2). On the 483rd anniversary of this decree Jesus rode into Jerusalem on a donkey on what we know as the first Palm Sunday, fulfilling the prophecy of Daniel 9:25. Then in 68-70 AD the city was destroyed by the Romans.  After centuries of being rebuilt and then torn down by various conquering groups, the walls around Jerusalem were finally rebuilt under the direction of Suleiman the Magnificent beginning in 1535 AD, and during his reign the city enjoyed an exceptional period of peace and religious tolerance.  For the most part, these are the walls that surround the Old City today.

Based on my understanding of Matt. 24:34 and Psalm 90:10, Jesus should return in 2018, 70 years after the re-birth of Israel.  If so, it will have been 483 years since Suleiman ordered Jerusalem’s walls rebuilt, the same span of time given in Daniel 9:25. If this is merely a coincidence, it is truly a remarkable one. By the way, if you use the 360 day year we believe God uses, 483 years on His calendar equals 476 on ours.  Add 476 years to 1535 and you come to 2011, the year I believe the rapture will occur.   This could get interesting.

The Prophetic Perspective

Prove All Things knowing that all Prophecy is about Jesus and God revealing His Son…To us..for our…Salvation. We post material that is questionable, objectionable, and in the opinion of the Editor of the Prophetic Perspective, valid to use as God chooses to. Sometimes that is highly suspect as material setting “dates” of the Rapture is, but often these posts, may have pieces that are correct to futher study.
