Remember the series of 85 years?

From time Jacob/Israel entered into Egypt in 1877 BC, there is a series of 85-year increments that goes down through history all the way until Christ's birth in the year 7 BC.

1877 BC - 7 BC = 1,870 years

1,870 years = 22 (2 x 11) x 85

So, from 1877 BC (Jacob's entry point into Egypt) go 85 years. And another 85 years. And a third 85 years. And do it 22 times. And it brings you to the year 7 BC which was the year of Christ's first coming.

Now let's start again as this series of 85 years continues into the New Testament. From 7 BC until the year Israel became a nation again is the year 1948 AD. The total number of years is 1,955 calendar years.

1,955 breaks down to: 23 x 85 = 1,955 years

So from 7 BC go 85 years. And a 2nd time. A 3rd time. A 4th time. A 23rd time and you land on 1948 AD and Israel is once again a nation among the nations.

Does the series of 85 years end there?

No, it does not.

Go from 1948 AD until the year 2033 AD and it is 85 years exactly.

It is the 24th period of 85 years from 7 BC. And it is the 46th period of 85 years overall from 1877 BC.

1877 BC + 2033 = 3,910 years

3,910 breaks down to: 46 x 85

Note: 3,910 is also double the duration of the Church Age.

Remember the Church Age went from 33 AD to 1988 AD for a total of 1,955 years. 2 x 1,955 = 3,910

Therefore, the timeline from Israel (Jacob) entering into Egypt until the year 2033 basically encompasses the whole period of national Israel and the whole period of the New Testament churches combined.

The 46th (2 x 23) period of 85 years is about to complete in just a few more years in 2033 AD.
