Below is an email explaining the errors of looking at 2034 for the end instead of 2033:

I think we have to make a distinction between the Hebrew calendar and the Bible's calendar. The problem with the Hebrew calendar is that men have been handling it. Doing a relatively good job. But still their rules cannot be trusted. God did not give the postponement rules – they are manmade. I don't trust men.

Concerning the Oct. 7 2015 date, I asked Bob _____ to confirm if Oct. 7th was the 10,000 day of the Great Tribulation/1,600th day since May 21, 2011, and the last day of tabernacles which he did using the formula's I've shared with you before.

Once we have a solid date for Passover, then we can project the date for Passover into any given year. And from Passover arrive at the other key dates for the feast days in that same year. That's how we concluded that Oct. 7th was the last day for Passover in 2015.

Regarding Purim: At the time I was looking for anything I could to understand why the world didn't end Oct. 21, 2011. And Purim looked possible. But I was wrong about Purim in 2012.

If more information points to a particular feast day (date) in 2033, then I would verify it by the astronomical data – not by the Hebrew converter sites. If the astronomical data indicated one day/while the Hebrew converter site – or your information which uses their method indicated another day – I would go with the astronomical data. I believe that is God's calendar that He has controlled with wonderful precision since the creation. The Hebrew converter site needs to make the correction to agree with the astronomical data. They always need to correct to it. Not the other way around.

When you say "13,045 runs from March of AD 2033 to March of AD 2034," what you're missing is that once we enter 2034 we're deviated from the pattern of Christ's first coming. And we've also deviated from the pattern of creation to the first coming. And we've also left the clear 2,000 years from the cross pattern.

For example, Jesus did not live into the year 34 AD. His first coming concluded in 33 AD. God worked this out according to the Hebrew feast days, and also arranging events to occur exactly where they did occur in the Julian (or proleptic Gregorian) calendar. What we are finding in our day is that we're following the pattern of the first coming very closely. Beginning with the Jubilee year of 1994 and concluding in the year 2033. We have the same distance of time as Christ's birth in the Jubilee year of 7 BC and the conclusion of His first coming in 33 AD.

I think we can allow for the possibility of variation from the pattern of the first coming concerning its completion in a time related to the 17th day of the 2nd month, or in tabernacles/ingathering – AT THE END OF THE YEAR. But not beyond that. If we go beyond 2033 then we've lost the pattern of the stripes (39/40), which is a pattern I believe God has given us in years.

The years are important. Which is why we can say that Christ's first coming spanned 39/40 actual/calendar years. Even though He died at age 38 1/2 and not at age 39. This emphasizes the fact God is using the number of years involved and not the number of Christ's own years.

It’s the same with 1994 thru 2033: 40 inclusive years/39 actual. If we go to 2034 this is lost. We would have 41 inclusive/40 actual. The 5 times Paul received stripes minus 1 (39) is no longer in view.

I hope this helps you see the major problems with putting forth 2034.

May the Lord's perfect will be done,

Chris
