Bible Time

Feast of Trumpets, Atonement and Tabernacles

In February, 2001, the US and UK again bombed Iraq. Like the story in December 1998, the time line suggested the story. Again the time line added details, suggesting biological warfare against the UK as retaliation and it pointed forward to a sacrifice on September 11, 2001 and a closing assembly 8 days later, a special session of the United States Congress with Tony Blair in attendance.

Background

There are various places on the day-for-a-year time line when the day-accurate stories augment the trunk day-for-a-year time line. One of those time began in the summer of 2000 when the day-accurate story of the Exodus from Egypt began to replay in the news.

Most of the key headlines in August of 2000 followed the various plague stories, including the Ostankino Tower fire in Moscow and the Millennium Summit in New York City. It also continued providing prophetic dates across the following year and included a date that landed in February of 2001, the date for the first observance of the feast of Trumpets. The charts provide the specific layout of the period, the following is the date report for the prophetic replay of that first feast of trumpets:

Replay of first Feast of Trumpets
ET Number	Day	Modern Date	Bible Date	AA Number
ET:9701	Sat	17 Feb 2001 NS	3492/2/15 FE	AA:4739115

Headlines

The headlines for the date came from the Middle East. The UK and US had bombed targets in Iraq, including targets in and around Baghdad. Air raid sirens went off in the city for the first time in years. Sirens in Baghdad were the fulfillment of the trumpets.

More Dates

The ancient feast of Trumpets was followed 9 days later by the Day of Atonement. That ancient holiday replayed prophetically as reported by the following date report:

ET Number	Day	Modern Date	Bible Date	AA Number
ET:9710	Mon	26 Feb 2001 NS	3492/2/24 FE	AA:4739124

This particular observance centered on a sacrifice by fire. It was followed on the 5th day after with the start of the Feast of Tabernacles. The following is one of the passages that describe the Day of Atonement:

Headlines

The dramatic headline at this date was the start, actually the day before, of the British burning of animal carcasses in response to Foot-and-Mouth disease breaking out in livestock herds. The headlines were rather dramatic, with large bonfires set across the countryside.

Millions of farm animals would eventually be burned by placing the carcasses on used wooden railroad "sleepers" (ties, for American readers), covering the carcasses with petrol and coal and igniting the whole mess. This is a specific technique for disposal that was quite close to the technique proscribed in the Old Testament Law.

Curiously, the Plague on Livestock, an August 2000 prophetic event, had also hit in Britain, in that case with the slaughter of about 20,000 pigs. That plague was now returning in force.

Linkage to Iraq

These two stories, the bombing of Iraq and the burning of animals are linked by the prophetic stories. We are not told how in the Bible, we must figure that out on our own. The best suggestion is that Iraq was retaliating against the UK with this outbreak. In other words this was a germ warfare attack against the UK that originated in Iraq. Later headlines would suggest this might have been a germ warfare attack, though nothing certain has been revealed in the media.

Still More Dates

The Exodus day-accurate side story provided a third set of dates in this period, the replay of first observance of the Feast of Tabernacles. This feast was scheduled to begin on the date indicated by the following date report:

Replay of 1st day of Feast of Tabernacles. (Theoretical date.)
ET Number	Day	Modern Date	Bible Date	AA Number
ET:9715	Sat	3 Mar 2001 NS	3492/2/29 FE	AA:4739129

This particular feast included a daily schedule of animal sacrifices that followed the style seen at the Day of Atonement. The animal carcass burning in the UK continued but there was no specific headlines that began here with something new. The reason? The counts of animals in the Tabernacles sacrifices were offsetting this event into future time. How far? By a day count that matched the animal count. The following table shows the counts for the various days in the Feast.

Tabernacles Sacrifice Schedule1
Date, Day	Bulls	Rams	Male Lambs	Sub Total	Male Goat	Grand Total
X/7/15, day 1:	13	2	14	29	1	30
X/7/16, day 2:	12	2	14	28	1	29
X/7/17, day 3:	11	2	14	27	1	28
X/7/18, day 4:	10	2	14	26	1	27
X/7/19, day 5:	9	2	14	25	1	26
X/7/20, day 6:	8	2	14	24	1	25
X/7/21, day 7:	7	2	14	23	1	24
X/7/22, day 8:	1	1	7	9	1	10
Totals:	71	15	103	191	8	199

Finding the indicated Date

This list suggests the offset. In this case two totals matter. The general sacrifice count, or 191 days and the count provided when the sin offering is included or 199 days. The following date report indicates the date 191 days later. (Note the day-by-number fields are 191 higher than the theoretical date given in the previous report.)

Date from Sacrifice Schedule of Feast of Tabernacles. (191 days from theoretical)
ET Number	Day	Modern Date	Bible Date	AA Number
ET:9906	Mon	10 Sep 2001 NS	3492/9/10 FE	AA:4739320

This is one day short, suggesting some sort of protective divine covering through the date indicated in the report. The following day is the date of the World Trade Center attack in New York City.

Linkage to Iraq

Like the burning of farm animal carcasses in the UK at the Day of Atonement, the events at September 11, 2001, are linked directly back to the bombing of Iraq by the US and UK in February 2001. Though the story does not state the mechanism, the inference here is that the events in New York on September 11 were in retaliation for the bombing of Iraq in February 2001.

Numerous headlines have hinted at this linkage. The American government has debated if it should restart the Persian Gulf War and take out Saddam, the reason being the suspicion that Saddam is behind the attacks at September 11 in some way. This story suggests he is, just like the Sodom and Gomorrah story and the bombing of Iraq in December 1998 also suggests the events at September 11, 2001, were in retaliation for US and UK bombing of Iraq.

This story works together with the Sodom and Gomorrah story and the two together both chronologically link the bombing of Iraq to events in New York City on September 11, 2001. Though there are plenty of headlines to put blame on Osama bin Laden, the stories indicate bin Laden's actions were not carried out in a vacuum. He had help.

Yet still more dates

The Feast of Tabernacles animal sacrifice schedule suggests still one more date, 8 days beyond the 11th of September. The following date report provides the date:

Date from Sacrifice Schedule of Feast of Tabernacles. (199 days from theoretical)
ET Number	Day	Modern Date	Bible Date	AA Number
ET:9914	Tue	18 Sep 2001 NS	3492/9/18 FE	AA:4739328

This report appears to be pointing at the special session of the United States Congress held on Thursday, September 20, 2001. At that session, the Tony Blair, the Prime Minister of the United Kingdom was in attendance. This was in effect the "closing assembly" suggested by the Feast of Tabernacles story. In it, the United States and the United Kingdom publicly declared their intention of going to war in the Middle East. (The now two day difference suggests these intervals be used as dividers which is how this story is drawn on the master charts.)
