Min's Historical Calendar Of Jesus - Chapter 2

CHAPTER 2
JOHN THE BAPTIST WAS born on 1 Nisan 3758, which was Sunday,
March 17, 3 BC, in Ain Karemjudah ~35:10E 31:42N (4 mi. w of
Jerusalem). Note that John's father, the priest Zechariah,
served in the eighth [8-day] course of Abijah, which started
on the weekly sabbath of 7 Sivan 3757; this date was June 2,
4 BC. The archangel Gabriel appeared to Zechariah after 9 AM
that same morning [Luke 1:5-25]. Pentecost was "fully come" on
9 Sivan[Acts 2:1] but various sects of the priesthood observed
this earlier. Jesus was conceived on the first day of the 6th
month of Elisabeth's pregnancy with John[Luke 1:36]. Normal
gestation to full term is 266 to 270 days, so if Jesus and
John were both carried an average term of 267 days, then John
was conceived on 28 Sivan 3757, which was Saturday, June 23,
4 BC, placing Jesus' conception in Mary by the Great Spirit
exactly five Hebrew calendar months plus one day[148 days]
later, on 28 Cheshvan 3758, which date was Sunday, November
18, 4 BC... and Yes, in case you're wondering, procreation was
permitted on the weekly Sabbath according to the Law of Moses
[ref. Gen 1:27-28 ibid]. Also note that the traditional date
of the Annunciation [Luke 1:26-38] seems to be a little off.
Not surprising, as we'll see happen again in the next chapter.
The astronomical data with reference to the molad for John the
Baptist's date of birth is calculated thusly:

John the Baptist was generated XIX MARTIVS in the year four
& twenty of Caesar Augustus (3 BC), at cosmic antemidheaven
which was dies solus to sabbath on 1 Nissanu 3758 (metonic),
just one hour and twenty-eight minutes from hodesh ha-abib,
i.e. true midnight 17 March 3 BC proleptic Julian calendar.
Edgar Cayce confirmed this data via his psychic readings,
the "year four" and "midnight". The rest is deduced through
strict astronomical calculation, as given by yours truly:

"...The seventh to Hakkoz, the eighth to Abijah"[Heb. hyba,
A-bi-yah'; ref. 1 Ch 24:10]. At the time of incense[ref. Ex
30:1-8, Luke 1:10], a splendidly aromatic incense made from
a mixture of sweet spices [i.e. equal parts of finely ground
stacte, onycha, galbanum and frankincense; ref. Ex 30:34-38]
was offered at the third hour [9 AM], and again at the ninth
hour [3 PM; cf. Acts 3:1]. It is abundantly clear from the
gospel According to Luke that Zechariah's angelic visitation
by Gabriel occurred in the morning hours on the first day of
the course of Abijah, which in that year began at sundown June
1, 4 BC, and in every year lasted fully eight days until the
afternoon of the following weekly Sabbath, thereby always
overlapping the next course assuring perpetual temple service.
But in this year, Zechariah's service was delayed one week by
his mandatory participation in the Feast of Weeks [Shavuot],
placing his last or 8th day on 21 Sivan, or June 16. Note that
the law which retired Levites from service at the age of fifty
years [ref. Num 8:25,26ibid] did not apply to priests, rather
many had served to extreme old age, as did Zechariah.
Not one of the prophets of old, not Moses, or Isaiah, nor any
other prophet mentioned in the Old Testament is so frequently
referenced in the New Testament as is Elijah, remembering also
that it was Elisha who "took the mantle of Elijah".
John denied being Elijah the prophet [John 1:21], yet John's
beloved first cousin Jesus [Heb ewvwhy, YaoHu'SHua {pronounced
yaoh-oo'shua} from ewvwhy, Jehoshua or Joshua; Gk. Ihsouv,
ee-ay-sooce', meaning "God {Heb. hwhy, YaoHuWaH, yaoh-oo'
vaw', Lat. Jehovah} is Salvation"] confirmed that indeed he
was and is Elijah [Mat 17:10-13]. But neither did John himself
at first recognize the prophesied Messiah the Prince until the
moment of Jesus' baptism by John and by His Father at the
river Jordan. Whether the spirit-entity who'd been *generated*
as the prophet named Elijah was aware that he'd been generated
[incarnated] as John the Baptist is not really an issue, since
Lord Jesus confirmed that John was and is in fact the Elijah
of prophecy foretold by the ancients as recorded in the Hebrew
TaNaKh. ('TaNaKh' is an acronym naming the twenty-four ancient
scrolls comprising the old testament portion of the Hebrew
Canon, divided into three major portions: these are known as
Torah[Law], Nevi'im[Prophets] & Ketuvim[Writings]. Subsequent
translations and subdivisions of selected works within TaNaKh
have yielded the thirty-nine divinely-inspired books of the
Old Testament, preserved even for our generation, and best
translated, in my opinion, by Jerome for the Latin Vulgate).
As anyone can see, the profound similarities between John and
one of his karmic-predecessors, Elijah, coupled with Jesus and
a karmic-predecessor of His, Elisha, are immediately apparent;
e.g, the prophet Malachi, writing approximately four centuries
after the days of Elijah and Elisha, wrote:
"Behold, I will send you Elijah the prophet before the
coming of the great and dreadful day of the LORD"
--Mal 4:5 AV
Thusly Jesus answered His disciples after John the Baptist had
been beheaded that "Elijah indeed is coming and will restore
all things"[ref. Mat 17:10-13], clearly referring to His
Present 2nd Advent, not the 1st whereby He was speaking:
"I am saying but to YOU that Elijah already came, and not they
recognized him"..."then perceived the disciples that about
John the Baptist he said to them"(see also Mat 11:13,14;16:14;
Mark 9:11;15:35; Luke 9:7,8; John 1:21). Now look at Luke 4:25:
"...many widows were in the days of Elijah in the Israel,
when was shut up the heaven years three and months six,
as occurred famine great upon all the earth.."
Notably, Elijah[Heb. hyla, Eli'yah {ay-lee-yaw'/ var. ay-lee-
yaw'hoo}, Lat. Elias, meaning "YaoHuWaH is my God"] is named
30 times in the New Testament, but he is first introduced in
the Old Testament at 1 Kings 17:1, then continuing through 2
Kings 2:1-12, when his ministry was finished and the time drew
near for Elijah to ascend into heaven. Elijah's successor was
Elisha [Heb. evyla, Eliysha' {el-ee-shaw', Gk. elissaiov, el-
ee-sah'yos "God is salvation"] who he'd anointed years before.
Elijah had worked many miracles, and caused Israel to suffer
a drought for exactly 3 1/2 Hebrew calendar years; likewise,
Jesus' ministry "confirming the covenant with many"[Dan 9:24-
27] working many miracles, had lasted 3 1/2 Hebrew calendar
years before Messiah was "cut off"- the first half of His 7-
year Ministry completed. Elisha had become a miracle worker
much like his mentor Elijah, and after Jesus ascended to the
right hand of God [Mark 16:19], His apostles worked miracles
also. And look at 1 Ki 19:19, strikingly reminiscent of the
first twelve disciples of Christ, and the twelve ensigns of
the planetary zodiac:
"So he[Elijah] departed thence, and found Elisha the
son of Shaphat, who was plowing with twelve yoke of
oxen before him, and he with the twelfth: and Elijah
passed by him, and cast his mantle upon him."
Notably, the bright star Arcturus marks the beginning of the
first caelestial constellation of evening, caelestial Libra.
Many Christians don't know that Elijah had also raised the
dead [1Ki 17:2-24], or that his successor Elisha raised the
dead, such as the Shunammite's son [ref. 2 Kings 4:1ff], and
even in death, Elisha raised a dead Israelite by his corpse's
mere touch [2 Kings 13:20,21]! And we already know that Jesus
raised Lazarus up from the dead and was Himself raised up
after fully 3 days & 3 nights in the tomb. There are so many
obvious similarities worth noting here that it's no wonder
those questioning John were perplexed at John's repeated
denials of being Elijah [ref. John 1:20-28].
Now compare these verses between Elijah and John the Baptist:
"O LORD, take away my life; for I am not better than my
fathers"[I Kings 19:4] / "there hath not risen a greater
than John the Baptist...he that is least in the kingdom
of heaven is greater than he."[Mat 11:11].
"he was an hairy man, and girt with a girdle of leather
about his loins[II Kings 1:8] / "raiment of camel's hair,
and a leathern girdle about his loins"[Mat 3:4].
Similarities between John and Samson are also worth noting:
"For he shall be great in the sight of the Lord, and shall
drink neither wine nor strong drink."-ref. Luke 1:15
"And the angel of the LORD appeared unto the woman, and
said unto her, Behold now, thou art barren, and bearest
not: but thou shalt conceive, and bear a son. Now therefore
beware, I pray thee, and drink not wine nor strong drink,
and eat not any unclean thing: For, lo, thou shalt conceive
and bear a son; and no razor shall come on his head: for
the child shall be a Nazarite unto God from the womb: and
he shall begin to deliver Israel out of the hand of the
Philistines."-Judg 13:3-5 AV
And look at the Nazarite law[Num 6:2-4ff]. The Lord's Prayer
was being taught by John before Lord Jesus was even baptised:
"And it came to pass, that, as he was praying in a certain
place, when he ceased, one of his disciples said unto him,
Lord, teach us to pray, as John also taught his disciples.
And he said unto them, When ye pray, say, Our Father which
art in heaven, Hallowed be thy name. Thy kingdom come. Thy
will be done, as in heaven, so in earth. Give us day by
day our daily bread. And forgive us our sins; [as]for we
also forgive every one that is indebted to us. And lead
us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil..."
--ref. Luke 11:1-4 AV
Consider a passage in light of Ps 22:1, Mat 27:46 & Mar 15:34:
"...Elijah went up by a whirlwind into heaven. And Elisha
saw it, and he cried, My father, my father[Heb. ba, Ab;
Arabic "Aba"] ... and he took hold of his own clothes,
and rent them in two pieces ... when he also had smitten
the waters, they parted hither and thither: and Elisha
went over ... And when the sons of the prophets[children
of the Law of One] which were to view at Jericho saw him,
they said, The spirit of Elijah doth rest on Elisha. And
they came to meet him, and bowed themselves to the ground
before him."--ref. 2 Ki 2:12-15ff AV
The next verse of Mark 15:35 reads: "And some of them that
stood by, when they heard it, said, Behold he calleth Elias
[Eli'yah, ay-lee-yaw']". The Hebrew name yle, Eli, ay-lee;
[ref. 1 Sam and 1 Ki 2:27] derives from the primitive root
hle, Alah, aw-law'[Arabic name for God, Aramaic "Eloi"{ref.
Mark 15:34}], which means "to ascend to God" or "to be exalted
before God", or any such similar phraseologies. Recall that
*Elijah* and Moses appeared at the transfiguration[Mat 17:1-
9ff]; those who heard Jesus to cry out "ay-lee...ay-lee[yaw]"
were indeed listening! A complete reading of these verses in
context reveals that John and Elijah are indeed of One Spirit,
One Voice, just as Jesus and Elisha are of One Spirit: born
corporeal[mortal], but with immortal Souls. Whereas, unlike
John, Jesus the Christ is the first soul to overcome death
[wages of sin] of His free will, perfected in His Body Temple
in the Spirit of Truth--incorruptible by God's Spirit, wholly
devoid of sin[karma] and thereby now and forever inert to the
isotropy of the available energy time-space continuum. Every
Christian Buddhist knows that YHSH is Maitrya: the Buddha of
Compassion. In Sanskrit, YHSH is called Avata'ra: the Avatar,
and it is YHSH who confirmed for us that John / Elijah are
indeed of One Voice:
"But what went ye out for to see? A prophet? Yea, I say unto
you, and much more than a prophet. This is he, of whom it is
written, Behold, I send my messenger before thy face, which
shall prepare thy way before thee."-Luke 7:26-27 AV
