Prophecy News Watch
The Dimensions, the Sign, and the Glory!
Greetings in The name of Yeshua (Jesus ). I hope you will be blessed by this prophecy news watch. About 45 years ago I began teaching numbers in the Bible and their prophetic meanings. I think you will be really amazed with this story, and I hope you share it with your friends and family. I might as well tell you right up front, you may want to get your calculator out and have it available.
Is it conceivably possible a clue about when our Messiah will approximately arrive in Jerusalem is embedded within the dimensions of Solomon’s Temple? After you read and seriously analyze this teaching, you be the judge.
To set a foundation we must go back to the story of Noah’s Ark. In Gen. 6:3 God said, “… My spirit shall not always strive with man, for that he also is flesh: yet his days shall be a hundred and twenty [120] years. “Leviticus 25 lets us know a jubilee is 49 plus 1 year, for a total of 50 years. Now go back to the Noah’s Ark story in Gen. 6:15. I will paraphrase this to save time, but the dimensions of the Ark are 300 cubits long, 50 cubits wide, and 30 cubits high. Just to let you know, number 300 in the Bible is the number of faithful witnesses, number 50 is the number of jubilee, and number 30 is the number of “Consecration.”
So, is God communicating something to us with numbers? The answer is yes. I’d like to focus on the number 50 for a moment. Now that you know number 50 represents a jubilee, this number is A KEY that will open many prophetic revelations to God’s people. Now back to Gen. 6:3, when God said he would strive with man for 120 years those are jubilee years. So, 120 times 50 = 6,000 years. We believe it’s about 6,000 years from Adam and Eve to us today. Which we believe we are living in the age that Christ will return.
To save a lot of time, I want you to go read 2 Chronicles 3:1–4 where the dimensions of Solomon’s Temple are given. It discusses Mount Moriah in verse 1, this is the second mention of Mount Moriah since Gen. 22:2. Another major KEY to prophecy is 2 Peter 3:8. To save space, I will paraphrase this, “A day unto the Lord is like 1,000 years, and 1,000 years as to one day.” I just want to clarify one thing. I do believe God’s creation was literally 6 (24-hour) days. But those 6 days prophetically represent 6,000 years according to 2 Peter 3:8 and the 7th day of creation (where God rested) prophetically represent the 1,000-year Millennial Kingdom.
Well, folks it’s time to fasten your prophetic seat belts and get out your calculator. So here we go with the dimensions of Solomon’s Temple. I want you to look at 2 Chronicles 3:1–9 and be familiar with the details. You know the devil is in the details with secular things, but did you know he copied that after the Holy Spirit, who is really in ALL the Glorious Details! I’ve told people publicly for years, the Word of God (the Holy Bible) is not from this dimension, and it CAN be proven scientifically! I’m hoping to film a DVD called, “GOD by the Numbers” this summer 2022. Perhaps I’ll show you what I mean by that.
Back to 2 Chronicles 3:1–9. Isn’t it interesting the main building was 60 cubits by 20 cubits, which when added together would be 80 cubits, and the porch was 20 cubits by 20 cubits? All these dimensions total 120 cubits without the measurements of the Most Holy Place, which was inside the 120-cubit structure. The porch was also 120 cubits high—the same porch Jesus healed the blind man during the Feast of Dedication (Hannukah) about 1,000 years later (John 10:22–23). That’s another prophetic teaching! Now remember God said in Gen. 6:3. “My spirit shall not always strive with man … yet his days shall be 120 years.” I told you earlier that those represented 120 jubilee years (50 times 120 = 6,000 years). This appears to show man’s authority under the domination of Satan will last approximately 6,000 years! Is it possible that the 120 cubits, being the height of the porch, which is where you approach the Lord’s House, could be a clue revealing the 120th jubilee? What would you say if I told you that 2017–2018 WAS the 120th jubilee since Adam and Eve? I have said for that last 40 years that I strongly believe this was the Last JUBILEE (Sept 2017 to Sept. 2018) before Jesus returns. The next jubilee in my opinion will be in the year 2067, but I feel very sure the Kingdom will already be here by then, Praise God! So sometime after 2017–2018 is it possible this will be a timeframe the Father’s House will be prepared and ready for us?
It becomes even more evident, when verse 8 reveals that the Most Holy Place was 20 cubits by 20 cubits, which when added together is 40 cubits. Now let’s consider the House itself was 80 cubits by the first measure without the Most Holy Place. It seems to me the 80 cubits represents 80 jubilee years (50 times 80 = 4,000 years) which comes to 4,000 years from Adam and Eve to the birth of Christ. The 40 cubits of the Most Holy House where the Word of God was kept reveals to you and I that the Church Age will be 40 jubilees or 50 times 40 = 2,000 years! Are the pieces starting to fall in place to the puzzle?
The Bible is a very big book, but I do believe it is laid out in a numerical order. Let’s go on to verse 9. It states the weight of the gold nails was 50 shekels (the same number of years that make up a jubilee). I can assure you God is showing us a prophetic timeline here.
The 120 cubits of Solomon’s Temple were held together with 50 shekels of gold nails. We all know a 50-year anniversary is 50 years, and 50 times 120 = 6,000 years. The 120 cubits height of the porch was overlaid with gold which covered the area you approach the House, which indicates to me after 120 jubilees the House of GOD WILL be perfected for YOU! But we’re not finished yet. If you multiply 60 cubits times 20 cubits, you get 1,200 cubits. So, let’s do the math. The dimensions of the Most Holy House were 20 times 20 cubits, which equal = 400. So, when you total the square cubits—1,200 plus 400 plus 400, it adds up to 2,000! How strange that it adds up to the number of … the Church Age. I’m sure it’s over my head as much as yours, but the thread of revelation weaves itself all the way from Genesis to the book of Revelation.
A few examples of this: God fed Israel exactly 40 years with manna in the wilderness (Exodus 16) and it’s likely that 40 years symbolically represents 40 jubilee years (50 times 40 = 2,000) in which the Church is fed with bread from Heaven (manna) (John 6:32–35). Have you had your BREAD today? Did you notice God gave Moses specific instructions that they were only to gather enough manna each of the five days, BUT the 6th day they were told to gather TWICE as much manna because they were to rest on the 7th day. Can I give you my take on this? We are now in the 6th Millennium since Adam and Eve. We are receiving TWICE as much revelation compared to all the millenniums before us in the past.
This is ALL in your generation. To be fair, I’m just a regular guy who takes the Word of God very seriously. It behooves all of us to learn as much as we can of God’s Word. If you haven’t figured it out yet, you are truly living in the most exciting time EVER in human history! Well, folks, we’re on final approach.
When Solomon finished the Temple, he held a 7-day feast. By the way, it was the Feast of Tabernacles. You will find that in 2 Chronicles 7:8–9 and on the 8th day all the people assembled there to dedicate the House of God. There is a connection with you here.
After your 7 years with Christ in Heaven at the Marriage Supper of the Lamb, YOU are coming back to celebrate the next dedication to the Temple too—a 4th Temple! Is there a clue when this will take place? I believe there IS a picture of this in the Solomon story—about YOU. I want you to familiarize yourself with 2 Chronicles 5 because there is major prophecy in this chapter you need to know. It’s time to tighten your seat belt one last time. I’ll paraphrase this, but read that chapter for yourself.
The ultimate confirmation is 120 priests came and blew 120 trumpets. This is indicative of 120 jubilees being performed. Remember God commanded Israel to blow the trumpet every 50th year and declare a year of Jubilee (Leviticus 25:8–10). By the way, this is written on your Liberty Bell! So, the priests blowing the 120 trumpets are letting us know 120 jubilees must go by. Now I want you to read Psalm 102:13–22. Look at verse 18. “This shall be written for THE GENERATION TO COME: and the people which shall be created shall praise the Lord.”
This IS referring to YOU—the end-time generation! As you read 2 Chr. 5:12, there were singers of ASAPH, of HEMAN and of JEDUTHUN there. Remember The Holy Spirit is in … the details. In Hebrew, ASAPH means “GATHERER.” HEMAN means “Faithful” and JEDUTHUN means “Praising.” They’re praising JESUS CHRIST, THE High Priest. When The Ark was placed in the Temple, at that point the Glory of GOD came down in a cloud to the point the ministers couldn’t minister. Did you notice they’re in fine linen too? So, what’s your point, Bro. Mike?
After 120 jubilees (after 6,000 years) the Tabernacle of David will be renewed (Amos 9:11). If you studied your Bible history, you might recall when David brought the Ark of the Covenant to Jerusalem it sat in his tent until The Temple was built. Did you know there were NO animal sacrifices during the time it was there? There was just Davidic worship going on with praise and music in that place. That WAS the type and shadow of the Temple during the future Millennium Kingdom with Christ at the helm fulfilling the Davidic Kingdom. I don’t know about you, but I’m ready.
I’ve been extremely honored to be your guide on this prophecy news watch. May The Lord richly bless you and please share this story with many of your friends. Sincerely, Michael Samuel Smith.
