I admit I'm a sinner. Oh God, if only my sin were arrogance!!!
Luther, the father of the Reformation, has a chronology, "Supputatuio annorum mundi" (Calculation of the Year of the World), in which the beginning of the world is placed in the year 3960 BC. Counting the chronology of the patriarchs up to the year of Abraham's birth (assuming he was born in the 130th year of his father Terah), we get the year 1953 BC.
What happened in that year? NASA astronomers searching for the origin of the Chinese calendar through texts from the 1st century BC observed an extraordinary event in the heavens: a conjunction of the five visible planets at an angle of less than 4 degrees (see for example:
The Astronomy of the Birth of Abraham (1953 B.C.) ) and a celestial phenomenon in which the planet Venus appears to devour (due to its greater intensity) the others over the course of a few days at the end of February of that year. This would confirm what is said in chapter 8 of the Book of Jasher:
"
And it was in the night that Abram was born, that all the servants of Terah, and all the wise men of Nimrod, and his conjurers came and ate and drank in the house of Terah, and they rejoiced with him on that night.
And when all the wise men and conjurers went out from the house of Terah, they lifted up their eyes toward heaven that night to look at the stars, and they saw, and behold one very large star came from the east and ran into the heavens and swallowed up the four stars from the four sides of the heavens."
(Jasher 8:2–4)
The event matches remarkably with the astronomical records for February 1953 B.C.
Jacob was born 100+60=160 years later than when Abraham was born in 1953, that is, in 1953-160=1793. What happened in the year the patriarch of Israel was born? On May 1 of that year there was a Jupiter-Saturn conjunction. The angle in the sky has been shown to be 1'23", the smallest in an interval of almost 11,000 years (from before Adam to the year 4523 AD).
Luther believed in the so-called Elijah prophecy of the 6,000 years: that time would elapse from Adam to the coming of the Lord. If we count 6,000 years from 3960 BC, the 6,000 years would be in the year 2040 AD, although he thought the Lord could come at any time. Nobody knows.
Are you familiar with the Stellarium program for observing celestial events? Have you verified what I said about August 31, 2040, when a cross formed by the five planets will be seen in the sky, as can be verified? I won't go on.

P.S: Curiously this week Israel has said that it has destroyed the prophetic clock that was in Palestine Square in Tehran: "The Tehran Clock and Khamenei's Prophecy.On September 9, 2015, Iran's Supreme Leader, Ali Khamenei, declared that Israel would not exist in 25 years. Counting exactly 25 years leads us to September 9, 2040, which coincides with the first day of the Jewish Feast of Trumpets that year.
This date is also associated with a controversial countdown clock in Tehran. Although not confirmed, reports suggest that Israel may have destroyed this symbolic clock, as part of cyber-operations or direct strikes, further fueling speculation and prophetic associations.”
