[The Seven Times]
..Moses.. warned the Jews that if they were not obedient to God, the Lord would punish them "seven times." (26:10)

This prophecy in the book of Leviticus says: (26:11)

"I will chastise you seven times... (27:1)

I will make your cities waste... (27:2)

And I will scatter you among the heathen..." (Leviticus 26:28-33) (27:3) see

They were not obedient, and the prophecy went into effect. "Seven times" equals seven years in prophecy. Seven years of "each day for a year". This makes a total of 2520 years.... (27:4)

..it was 676 years from the first captivity to the birth of Christ, and.. consequently the year of fulfilment should be 1844.... (2520-676 -ed) (27:6)

The prophecy of Daniel and the "seven times" clearly states that it will take place when a Holy Messenger of God appears on earth. The prophecy says: (27:8)

"Behold, a watcher and a holy one came down from heaven; He cried aloud, and said thus... let seven times pass over him.".... (Daniel 4:13-16) (27:9) see

Most of the millennial scholars who dealt with this prophecy felt that it began in 604-602 B.C. According to the calendar of Iraq, the original land of Nebuchadnezzar, there were 2520 years from 604-602 B.C. to 1844. These were lunar years. Thus the discrepancy between the prophecies of Moses and Daniel was resolved by the astonishing fact that: (27:10)

1.There were 2520 solar years from 676 B.C. to A.D. 1844. (28:1)

2.There were 2520 lunar years from 602 B.C. to A.D. 1844. (28:2)
