In 607 BC, Nebuchadnezzar became emperor of Babylon. Seven times or 2,520 years later, we arrive at 1914, the beginning of World War 1 and the beginning of bondage as the Federal Reserve Bank commenced operations. In 604/603 BC, Nebuchadnezzar conquered Palestine. 2,520 years after 604 BC, in 1917, Jerusalem was liberated by Ephraim Britain. In 1918, 2520 years after 603 BC, World War 1 was over and the thrones of the Babylonian succession, i.e., Russia, Germany and Austria-Hungary came to an end. This fulfilled the prophecy at Daniel 7: 9, “I beheld till the thrones were cast down.”

Let’s now go to the next step. Bullinger states that the number “15” refers to acts wrought by the energy of Divine grace. It’s interesting to apply 15 to the above dates. From 1914, we arrive at 1929 when the great depression began, brought about by a massive reduction in money supply by the Federal Reserve Bank of the United States. This in turn resulted in a massive change of ownership of banks and industry. In 1932, fifteen years after 1917, the depth of the depression was reached and the one-worlders’ man, Franklin Roosevelt, was elected President. He did more for them than even they dared to dream about! In 1933, fifteen years after 1918 and the end of World War 1, where so many sacrifices were made in the name of freedom, the raping of Israel America’s wealth was consummated and the dominion of Esau was complete. The final throes were brought about by the New deal where such things as the confiscation of gold, control of banking and industry, public utilities, security exchanges, break with the gold standard and so on were guaranteed to bring Israelites into bondage as never before. Of course, we could add 15 years to 1933 and come up with 1948, a hugely significant year on God’s calendar. For instance, it was one “time” or 360 years from 1588, when Israel Britain won its greatest military victory (with God’s help) against the world’s strongest power, i.e., the Spanish Armada, to 1948 when they suffered their greatest military disgrace when a group of terrorists sent them limping from Palestine. There are other measurements that bring us to 1948 but you get the picture. If we take 1933 as the beginning of the Esau dominion, we must appreciate that God never intended us to be in bondage forever, not did He intend that the Esau dominion would last forever; although a companion book of the Bible does make it clear that Esau is the end of the age. Those who have read my past articles know that I see late 2003 as the beginning of judgment upon true Israel and the nations. So, 70 years separates 1933 and 2003. I ask that you reflect on two Bible incidents, some think they are simply two versions of the same incident. Anyway, when Nebuchadnezzar captured Jerusalem and deported the Israelites living there to Babylon, this was the beginning of a seventy-year bondage that ended with their release by Cyrus. A seventy-year bondage, then release! Isaiah 23 talks about a similar situation that could well suggest a dual prophecy. Tyre, similar to the Israel nations, had been the maritime centre of the world’s commerce for centuries. It had planted colonies all around the Mediterranean and suffered under the hands of the Assyrians, who had recently captured Babylon. This chapter prophesies Tyre’s overthrow, subjection and restoration at the end of the seventieth year. I believe this prophecy relates to true Israel. So again, a seventy-year bondage, then release! Is Esau’s dominion about to come to an end?

I believe we can take “70” and divide it into two periods, one of 30 and one of 40. According to Bullinger, “30” denotes in a higher degree the perfection of Divine order. It marks the right moment. Thirty years from 1933, the beginning of the Esau dominion, brings us to 1963, the right moment in time for the beginning of probation, trial and chastisement for Israel as a result of their disobedience of God’s Laws, Commandments and Judgments. This, of course, is the meaning of “40” and the sentence should be up in 2003. By the way, it is interesting that 1963 is 15 years after 1948.

Perhaps some readers can only be convinced of the importance of 1963 if it can be arrived at by other means. And it can! Queen Elizabeth I was undoubtedly the greatest English monarch to ever sit on the Throne of David. She began her reign over Ephraim Britain in 1558, at the very outset of the seventh period of punishment for the House of Judah. I believe God used her more effectively than any other monarch. She was the monarch who made England protestant by law, who opened up exploration and commerce, who made the courageous decision concerning Mary Queen of Scots and stood with her defending troops during the Spanish Armada. When she died in 1603, Britain had reached such a zenith of strength that it prompted Shakespeare to write in his play “King John” these immortal words, “Come the three corners of the world in arms, And we shall shock them, Nought shall make us rue, If England to itself do rest but true.” Well, England didn’t “to itself do rest but true.” Internationalists destroyed the Commonwealth for their one-world agenda. And as indicated earlier, 1963 was the death knell for the Israel nations. It took place one time or 360 years from the death of Elizabeth in 1603 or 1963. King James VI of Scotland came to the Throne of England as King James I after Elizabeth’s death. It was the uniting of the two sticks (or at least a partial uniting) fulfilling the prophecy of Ezekiel 37: 19. In 1963, Ephraim Britain and Manasseh America had surrendered all that made them great.

Is 1963 important? I shall leave it to you, dear reader, to contemplate. Remember, the above is an interpretation and must be looked at in this light. Yet, one thing seems certain, time is short and we should renew our efforts to reach as many as our brethren as possible with news of the Gospels of the Kingdom and Salvation and of the true identity of Israelites. May God strengthen and bless us in our pursuit of His wish that we be watchmen.
