  • CF has always been a site that welcomes people from different backgrounds and beliefs to participate in discussion and even debate. That is the nature of its ministry. In view of recent events emotions are running very high. We need to remind people of some basic principles in debating on this site. We need to be civil when we express differences in opinion. No personal attacks. Avoid you, your statements. Don't characterize an entire political party with comparisons to Fascism or Communism or other extreme movements that committed atrocities. CF is not the place for broad brush or blanket statements about groups and political parties. Put the broad brushes and blankets away when you come to CF, better yet, put them in the incinerator. Debate had no place for them. We need to remember that people that commit acts of violence represent themselves or a small extreme faction.
  • We hope the site problems here are now solved, however, if you still have any issues, please start a ticket in Contact Us

I found a message in Ezekiel that refers to 390 days and years of Israel's iniquity.
Verses 4 to 6 state that the day/year principle is at work.
My question is; has this period been determined, does it correspond to the fall of Samaria and Jerusalem?
Where does it start and end?
Let me know what you think.

This is very very interesting. The Babylonian siege of Jerusalem lasted 30 months so that corresponds to the 30 day period but I know nothing about the 390 years dating from the siege or destruction of Jerusalem. What Biblically significant event took place in 197 to 194 BC? I don't have a clue.

The most significant event I could find in a short time of searching really doesn't have any Biblical significance that I know of. The Rosetta stone was created in 195 BC.

Ezekiel 4:5–6. The prophet Ezekiel is commanded to lie on his left side for 390 days, followed by his right side for 40 days, to symbolize the equivalent number of years of judgement on Israel and Judah respectively.

Where did you get your information? I'm interested because I had never run across this passage before,
