Jerusalem 1917-1335
The Sanctuary is Cleansed
As birds flying so will the LORD of hosts
defend Jerusalem; defending also he will deliver [it;
and] passing over he will preserve it. Is.
31:5
Blessed [is] he that waiteth, and cometh to
the
thousand three hundred and five and thirty days.
Dan. 12:12
Spurgeon wrote that Horae (1862) was the standard
commentary on the book of Revelation. In it, E.B.
Elliot revealed that the Kings of the East was
commonly understood to signify that when the
Turkish empire ended the Jews would return
to their home. (click on Reference)
Therefore, when Turkey began to collapse in the late
19th century, the eyes of England turned to
Jerusalem with expectancy. This anticipation was
heightened when the first world Zionist Congress met
in Switzerland in 1895. For the first time, there
was
tangible proof that this prophecy was about to be
fulfilled.
Grattan Guiness - Approaching End of the Age
Predicited Fall of Jerusalem based on Bible Chronology
The Victorians were very knowledgeable about bible
prophecy and Grattan Guiness was their most
prominent expositor. His remarkable Approaching
End
of the Age (1880) revolutionized bible chronology
with the discovery of the soli-lunar cycle. He
predicted that Jerusalem would be freed from
Gentile rule on the 1335 lunar or 1917.
Miraculously, the year General Allenby led the British
troops into Jerusalem, the coins
in circulation bore the two dates 1917 and 1335
(in
Arabic)! Allenby fully appreciated
this prophetic milestone because as a boy his mother
had read to him from Approaching End of the Age.
The Cleansing of Jerusalem (The Sanctuary)
A Double Witness Doubled
Unto two thousand and three hundred days; then
shall the sanctuary be cleansed. Daniel 8:14
We have seen how the 2520 lunar and the 2300
solar co-terminated in 1844. In 1917, the
2300 lunar
and the 2520 solar co-terminated. Thus the two
longest prophetic time periods in the bible
inscribe
Daniel's "Cleansing of the Sanctuary". A
remarkable
double witness DOUBLED.
- 2520 Lunar - 603 BC to 1844
- 2300 Solar - 457 BC to 1844
- 2520 Solar - 603 BC to 1917
- 2300 Lunar - 312 BC to 1917
The 2300 solar began with Daniel's seventy weeks
at the decree to rebuild Jerusalem (Ezra).
The 2300
lunar began at 312 BC from the era of the
Selucidae
which dynasty proceeded the Eastern Little Horn.
