Sabbath 16/05/48/120

Dear Friends,

Today is the Third Sabbath in the Fifth Month Ab. Today we will study the Commentary on Nehemiah Part I: No. F016. Next week we will study Part II: F016ii. It is important that we bring ourselves up to date with the Commentary on Ezra F015 and F015ii as they were one book when first issued and are very significant concerning the future of Israel and the Law of God and its restoration in the Last Days. The texts represent the Major Restoration of the Law of God when God acted to restore the tribes of Judah, part Levi, and part Benjamin and Simeon to the Holy Land after the captivity in Babylon. The texts are critical to understanding the Temple Calendar and placing the Jubilees in their correct time frames with Ezekiel as we saw in Reading the Law with Ezra and Nehemiah (No. 250).

The restoration under Ezra and Nehemiah, and the Reading of the Law, took place in the reign of Artaxerxes II in 374 BCE. It was not in the reign of Artaxerxes I, as the Jews, and the forgeries in the Receptus, would have you believe as they are then able to hide the Jubilees, which is their express purpose in the fraud. The restoration took place exactly nine jubilees before the establishment of the church after the Jubilee of 27 CE and the baptism of Christ, and the commencement of the Mission of Christ from 28 to 30 CE, and 49 Jubilees before the end of this Age. The sequence served as a warning to Judah (and also Israel) regarding the destruction of the Temple in 70 CE and their dispersion over the 40 Jubilees to the end of the Age in 2027 and the commencement of the Millennial Age in 2028 CE and the arrival of the Witnesses Enoch and Elijah and the coming of the Messiah at the 2000th anniversary of the Death and Resurrection of Messiah in 30 CE.

The year 2028 is the First Year of the 121st Jubilee of the Age and the beginning of the 1000 years of the Seventh Millennial Reign of Christ. It is the beginning of the Fiftieth Jubilee from the Restoration of the Law and the Temple system under Ezra and Nehemiah and it looked forward to and represented the final establishment of the Laws of God and the Testimony and the Temple Calendar (No. 156). It is outlined in the paper The Golden Jubilee and the Millennium (No. 300).

On the New Moon of the Sixth Month Elul we will go on to explain the next five years and the sending of the Witnesses of Rev. 11:3-19 and the Return of the Messiah (Nos 210A; 210B; 141E; 141E_2) over the period to 2031.
The sequence is explained in the texts the Great Tribulation (No. 141D_2) and The Time of the End (No. 141C_4D and 1335 Days of Daniel Ch. 12 (No. 141C_4C). That text will be the Establishment of the Millennium (No. 300B).

It is very important that we are able to give an account of what we expect to occur over the period concerning the transfer of the Age from Satan to Messiah and the hope that lies within us concerning the First Resurrection (No. 143A) and the Holy Seed of the Millennium (Nos. 141E_3 and 141E_3B).

Keep the Faith.
