200-Year-Old “Messiah Clock” Sets Last Possible Date for Final Redemption

By:  Adam Eliyahu Berkowitz
Breaking Israel News – The Messiah Clock

Note From Ephraim     The Jews are still awaiting their Messiah.  They will be extremely excited when he appears, replete with a temple, priests, and temple furnishings which they will import as mystery, Babylon.  They may not be as excited when the beast declares himself as “god” and kills everyone who does not accept him or worship his image in the temple.  For a list of imported cargo read Revelation 18: 12-16.  For a discussion of the temple and sacrificial merchandise and their Biblical requirements as given in scripture, go to the following link:   Mystery Babylon – Part 3

Text From the Website: Breaking Israel News     For the Jewish nation, thousands of years have been spent in counting down to a time period that will ultimately usher in the final redemption. A special clock, known as the Messiah clock, has been counting down the final arrival of the Messiah for the last 200 years, giving hope and inspiration to generations of Jews during turbulent times.

The creator of the Messiah clock was none other than Rabbi Eliyahu of Vilna, also known as the Vilna Gaon, an 18th century Judaic scholar who was considered to be the guiding light of his generation, and is revered to this day. The Vilna Gaon spent much of his life studying Jewish concepts about the Messiah and yearned to move to Israel to hasten the process of redemption.

Well versed in mathematics and astronomy, the Vilna Gaon used his secular and religious scholarly background to come up with a unique method of tracking time based on the Hebrew calendar and a combination of Jewish sources found in the Talmud (Sanhedrin 97a). Based on his specific calculations, the Messiah clock was created and has been slowly ticking down towards his ultimate arrival.

The clock is based on the six days of creation, with each day corresponding to 1,000 years on the Hebrew calendar. The Vilna Gaon centered his calculations around the Jewish tradition that the Messiah must arrive by the year 6000 in the Jewish calendar, which corresponds to the day before the Sabbath and God’s refrain from any work. Currently, the Jewish calendar year is 5775.

A Jewish video – not a Christian one.

The most famous of all Jewish-Christian debates was between the apostate Jew Pablo Christiani and Moses Nahmanides (the Ramban).

Nahmanides argued that the central issue separating Christianity and Judaism was not the issue of Jesus messiahship, but whether or not Jesus was divine. There was no basis in Judaism, Nahmanides said, for believing in the divinity of the Messiah or, indeed, of any man.

To Nahmanides, it seemed most strange
“that the Creator of heaven and earth resorted to the womb of a certain Jewess
and grew there for nine months
and was born as an infant,
and afterwards grew up
and was betrayed into the hands of his enemies who sentenced him to death
and executed him,
and that afterwards he came to life
and returned to his original place.

The mind of a Jew, or any other person, cannot tolerate this.”
Nahmanides told the Spanish monarch,

“You have listened all your life to priests who have filled your brain and the marrow of your bones with this doctrine, and it has settled with you because of that accustomed habit.” Had King James heard these ideas propounded for the first time when he was already an adult, Nahmanides implied, he never would have accepted them.
