430 Years Takes us to the Year 2033
Jacob and the children of Israel entered into Egypt in 1877 BC.
430 years later to the selfsame day they came out of Egypt:
Exodus 12:40 Now the sojourning of the children of Israel, who dwelt in Egypt, was four hundred and thirty years.
41 And it came to pass at the end of the four hundred and thirty years, even the selfsame day it came to pass, that all the hosts of the LORD went out from the land of Egypt.
430 years after 1877 BC was the year 1447 BC.
If we go from 1447 BC to the year 1994 AD, the total is 3,441 years - 1 (no year zero when going from BC to AD date) = 3,440 years
3,440 years breaks down to 8 x 430.
So, this means from the year that was itself the 430th year – we can countdown 430 years. Then another 430 years. And another. And another. Until we come to the Jubilee year of 1994 (and by the way, after 430 years in Egypt, all the people of Israel were freed! They were delivered from their bondage. Which is exactly what the Jubilee year points to).
We also know that Israel wandered in the wilderness for 40 years. And after 40 years in the year 1407 BC, Israel crossed the Jordan river and entered into the promised land of Canaan.
If we start with 1407 BC, and once again count out 8 periods of 430 years each (which totals the same duration of time of 3,440 years), we come to the year 2033:
1407 + 2033 = 3,440 calendar years
430 years, then deliverance of the captives. We know that 1994 was a Jubilee year but what deliverance would be in view in 2033?
The deliverance of our bodies in the resurrection/rapture. And the ultimate deliverance out of the Egypt of this world and into the reality of the promised land of a new heaven and a new earth.
Is the 430 year time line to 1994 and 2033 a coincidence.
We'll soon see if this piece of Biblical evidence proves correct when we come to the year 2033. Not long from now.
