85 and the Year 2033

Church Age:

33 AD to 1988 AD = 1,955 years

1,955 years breaks down to: 5 x 17 x 23

Jacob's entry into Egypt during famine:

1877 BC to 2033 AD = 3910 calendar years

3,910 years breaks down to: 2 x 5 x 17 x 23

Since 5 x 17 equals 85 another way of breaking down 1,955 is:

85 x 23 = 1955

And,

85 x 46 (2 x 23) = 3910

Interestingly, we find that from the time Israel became a nation again, in the year 1948, until the year 2033 is a period of 85 years.

2033 - 1948 = 85 years

So, from the time Jacob entered Egypt (1877 BC) until the year 1948 AD was 3,825 years or 85 x 45. And from 1948 through 2033 is the 46th period of 85 years.
