Perhaps I was not clear or maybe you misunderstood what I wrote.
There are gaps that have to be filled when the information is not stated in the bible. For example, you are filling in that the covenant in Daniel 9:27 is a peace treaty. I don't think it is a peace treaty, but the Mt. Sinai covenant. I see no reason for a peace treaty after Gog/Magog because all of Israel's enemies will have been destroyed.
I am filling in that when the Antichrist commits the act in 2Thessalonians2:4 , the Jews will reject him at that point from continuing as the King of Israel. When for that reason of rejection, he begins to persecute them. The part in blue is not stated in the bible.
We are kinda drifting off course of the original post. Perhaps you could start another thread of when you think the Day of the Lord years begin, on the 7year timeline.
Would we be kinda drifting off course from the OP if I were to ask the following?
Revelation 12:13 And when the dragon saw that he was cast unto the earth, he persecuted the woman which brought forth the man child.
14 And to the woman were given two wings of a great eagle, that she might fly into the wilderness, into her place, where she is nourished for a time, and times, and half a time, from the face of the serpent.
15 And the serpent cast out of his mouth water as a flood after the woman, that he might cause her to be carried away of the flood.
16 And the earth helped the woman, and the earth opened her mouth, and swallowed up the flood which the dragon cast out of his mouth.
17 And the dragon was wroth with the woman,
and went to make war with the remnant of her seed, which keep the commandments of God, and have the testimony of Jesus Christ.
Where on the timeline do you see verse 13 fitting? And how much of the timeline would it be fitting? IOW, how much time does verse 13 involve before it leads to verses 14 through 16? And speaking of those verses, where do you see a time, and times, and half a time, fitting on the timeline? It can't be before verse 13.
And finally, where do you see verse 17 fitting on your timeline? IMO, what I have underlined in verse 17 sounds like the following in Revelation 13 that I have underlined.
Revelation 13:5 And there was given unto him a mouth speaking great things and blasphemies;
and power was given unto him to continue forty and two months.
Revelation 13:7
And it was given unto him to make war with the saints, and to overcome them: and power was given him over all kindreds, and tongues, and nations.
I would think, a time, times, and half a time, is the same amount of time as is 42 months. This would be basing these things on 30 day months times 12 months in a year.
a time, times, and half a time----360 days(1 year)+720 days(2 years)+180 days(1/2 year)=1260 days. 1260 days divided by a 30 day month = 42 months.
