Israel and the 1948 mirror

Bible Prophecy Codes and Numbers

Abraham was born 1948 years after Adam,

and Israel was born as a nation in AD 1948.

Is this a coincidence?

Thus, from Adam to Abraham are 1948 years,

and from Jesus, "the Second Adam", are also 1948 years.

However, there is a snag to this perfect pattern!

But the snag only makes the pattern stronger!

This email response addresses that "snag".

The email sent to me...

Greetings! Have enjoyed visiting your website--look forward to reading more thoroughly over the next few weeks as I have time!

I wondered also, do you know that there is historical evidence worldwide (i.e. from many different cultures) that the world once ACTUALLY had a 360 day solar & lunar year? (A realtime geometric calendar of God's perfection!). And that it changed! (possibly at time of flood, or when God turned sundial back for Hezekiah)... Let me know if you want me to send you info!

ANOTHER interesting fact that most people are unaware of... You can count the years in your own Bible to check this (or I've attached a Scripture reference chart)...   Counting ADAM as Year #0/beginning of creation (The Jewish calendar has been counting since then; they still keep this Jewish calendar to this day! (they say we're in year 5700 something? I question it's exact accuracy).

Anyway, if you count the years from Adam (Adam was 130 years old when he begat Seth, Seth 105 when he begat Enosh, just keep counting.  Gets a little hazy around the flood, clarifies, keep counting until Terah begets Abraham in guess what year! 1948 Jewish years!

He's the one the Land of Israel was promised to--to him and his descendants!

     Some Jewish Rabbis know about this but don't LIKE it (because it seems to be God validating Christian Years; so they ignore it!) Christian scholars say no (then everyone follows the herd); they say it must have been only Terah's first born born in 1948, and that Abraham must not have been the firstborn (even though he's listed first) but they are wrong--e-mail back if you want details (of why they're wrong...)

God bless you in everything you're doing for God's Kingdom!!!

My email response to the above question about the 1948 mirror.

====================
Thank you for your email!

I am aware of the 1948 mirror. Many people have noticed it independently, including myself. Yes, it is there.

However, I still believe that Abram was not the first born, but Terah was 130 years old when he was born, as do many other scholars. Besides what Stephen said in Acts 6, we have the stylization of the book of Genesis that strongly suggests this.

Adam has three named children (besides unnamed ones), with the child of the line leading to Abraham being the third born (Cain, Abel, Seth), then Noah has three children and the line leading to Abraham is Shem, but he is not the firstborn either. (Your chart says as much.)

(NOAH HAD SON SHEM AT APPROX 500 YRS OF AGE)

SHEM WAS 100 YRS OLD TWO YEARS AFTER THE FLOOD

(Text reads, when Noah was 500 he had Shem, Ham, and Japheth, just as the text for Terah reads, Gen 11:26 "And Terah lived seventy years, and begat Abram, Nahor, and Haran." Yet, neither Noah was 500 or Terah was 70 at the birth of their child who were of the lineage of Messiah.)

And so, like Adam and Noah, Terah also has three children with the promised child not the firstborn. And this pattern continues throughout the bible, for it is not the firstborn that gets the blessing, but it is the promised child, not as of man in the normal way, but by the mercy of God. Not of works lest any man should boast.

Adam	Noah	Terah
Gen 5:1 This is the book of the generations of Adam.	Gen 6:9 These are the generations of Noah.	Gen 11:27 Now these are the generations of Terah.
By 130 Adam had at least Cain, Abel, and Seth	"At 500 Noah had Shem, Ham, Japheth"	At "70 Terah had Abram, Nahor, and Haran"
Adam 130 when Seth born	But, Noah was actually 502 when Shem born	But, Terah was actually 130 when Abram born
