Oh good grief - the latest empty Futuristic speculation. First it was 40 years (a generation) after the formation of modern day Israel in 1948. 1948 + 40 = 1988. 1988 came and went and was selectively forgotten.
Next it was stated that the "correct" starting date was actually 1967 with the capture of Jerusalem. So 1967 + 40= 2007. This also came and went - and was forgotten. Now it is 1948 + 75 years (the new generation definition) so this will be in 2023. What happened to the "Correct" starting date of 1967? Maybe the next speculation will be 75 years after the 1967 war which equals 2042.
With a negative credibility rating why would anyone believe this stuff. Not one futuristic speculation has come to pass in the last 60 years despite the fact that there are thousands of them.
Best not to put dates on speculations, but rather try to keep them all in the future where you cannot be proven to be wrong.
The 40 years is determined as a generation when God led the tribes of Israel around the desert for 40 years saying that he needed the generation who had seen the bad things in Egypt to die out.
The 40 years are again duplicated for the second Christian covenant during our "hour of temptation." Rev.3;10 When a day equals a thousand years then each of it's 24 "hours" is equal to 40 years. Our 40 years of temptation began in 2000AD according to these calculations.
