For those who may be interested in
the truth about how to reckon time in Scripture, according to Scripture, please read and understand the following:
The Bible contains a Scriptural “code” for relating time periods, which is consistent throughout. That code is very simple: a “day” in Scriptural prophecy decoded can, and often does, mean a year,
each day for a year.
Numbers 14:34 After the number of the days in which ye searched the land, [even] forty days,
each day for a year, shall ye bear your iniquities, [even] forty years, and ye shall know My breach of promise.
Ezekiel 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 (code).
A week is 7 days, so 7 “days” can equal 7 years,
each day for a year.

Strong's Concordance
shabua: a period of seven (days, years), heptad, week
Original Word: שְׁבוּעַ
Part of Speech: Noun Masculine
Transliteration: shabua
Phonetic Spelling: (shaw-boo'-ah)
Definition: a period of seven (days, years), heptad, week
A month is given to be 30 days, so 30 “days” can equal 30 years,
each day for a year.
A “time” is defined as 12 months of 30 “days” each, or 360 years,
each day for a year.
See:
Lev. 26:18,
24,
Dan. 7:25,
12:7
These relationships are further confirmed by Scripture, where 42 months = 1260 “days” (42 x 30 = 1260), which can equal 1260 years,
each day for a year.
And similarly, a Time (360), Times (2 x 360 = 720) and a half (180), i.e. 3 ½ “Times”, when summed likewise = 1260 years (360 + 720 +180 = 1260),
each day for a year.
Daniel 12:7 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 (360), Times (2 = 720), and an half (180) (1260 years in total - 9/Dec./1917 when Jerusalem was liberated from the "Treading Down of Jerusalem by the Gentiles"); and when He shall have accomplished to scatter the power of The Holy People (Israel -
Gen. 48:11;
16)(
Rev. 11:3;
7), all these [things] shall be finished.
Revelation 11:2-7
11:2 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 (Jerusalem) shall they tread under foot
forty [and] two months (1260 days/years).
11:3 And I will give [power] unto my
Two Witnesses (
Isa. 43:12), and they shall prophesy
a thousand two hundred [and] threescore "days", clothed in sackcloth
(42 months of 30 "days" each = 1260 "days", each day for a year -
Num. 14:34;
Ezekiel 4:6;
Dan. 12:7).
11:4 These are the two "Olive" trees, and the two candlesticks (Ephraim and Manasseh) standing before the God of the Earth (
Gen. 48:16,
Deut. 33:16-17,
Zech. 4:11-14).
11:5 And if any man will hurt them, fire (gun-fire which looked as though it) proceedeth out of their mouth, and devoureth their enemies: and if any man will hurt them, he must in this manner be killed.
11:6 These have power to shut heaven, that it "rain" (spiritually) not in the days of their prophecy: and have power over "waters" (
ch. 17:15) to turn them to blood (reds/communists), and to smite the Earth with all plagues, as often as they will.
11:7 And when they shall have finished their Testimony
(the 1260 "days" ended on 9/Dec./1917 - the day that Jerusalem was liberated from Gentile domination by Israel - British forces -
Ezekiel 25:14), the beast (system - Satanic-Communism) that ascendeth out of the Bottomless Pit shall make war against them, and shall overcome them, and
KILL them.
Revelation 12:6 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" (years).
Revelation 12:14 And to the woman (Israel) were given two wings of a great eagle (
Ex. 19:4), that she might fly into the wilderness (Britain), into her place, where she is nourished for a
Time, and Times (2), and half a Time (1260 "days") (
Dan. 12:7), from the face of the serpent.
One other notable reference to time in Scripture:
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.
2 Peter 3:8 But, beloved, be not ignorant of this one thing, that
one day [is] with The Lord as a thousand years, and a thousand years as one day.
Application: the creation of the world in 6 “days”, followed by the Sabbath day of rest being an analogy for our 6000 year history, to be followed by the Sabbath millenium (1000-year reign of Christ over the “Elect”) after Judgment Day.
Notably absent:
Nowhere in the Book of Daniel, nor anywhere else in Scripture, is a Scriptural year defined as 360 weeks; it is instead defined as
360 “DAYS”,
each day for a year.
Revelation 21:8 But the fearful, and unbelieving, and the abominable, and murderers, and whoremongers, and sorcerers, and idolaters, and
ALL LIARS, shall have their part in the lake which burneth with Fire and brimstone: which is the second death.
