And jesus answered and said unto them, Elias truly shall first come, and restore all t hings. But I say unto you, That Elias is come already, and they knew him not, but have done unto him whatsoever they listed. Likewise shall also the Son of man suffer of them. Then the disciples undeerstood that He spake unto them of John the Baptist.”

  10. "If John the Baptist was born at Pesach, Jesus must have been born during the Succoth (Feast of the Tabernacles) (40 weeks later). In Luke 1:26,36 Jesus was six months younger than John."

  21. IV TEMPLE SERVICE OF ZACHARIAH AND LUKE’S DATING

  22. If we can identify the end of the service of Zechariah’s temple service when he met with the Angel: (We should also allow a week or two for Zechariah to travel back to his village home and for Elizabeth to conceive.)  Annunciation of Mary took place after 150 days  John’s Birth took place after 280 days  Jesus’ birth took place after 430 days Jesus born Vision of Zachariah End of Service of Zachariah John born Zachariah reach back home Elizabeth become pregnant

  23. Luke 1:5 In the time of Herod king of Judea there was a priest named Zechariah, who belonged to the priestly division of Abijah; his wife Elizabeth was also a descendant of Aaron So here are the possible dates on which Zechariah might have served before the altar. 1. Week 3( Feast of the Unleavened Bread) 2. Week 9 (Feast of Pentecost) 3. Week 10 4. Week 29 (Feast of Weeks) 5. Week 35 POSSIBLE DATE OF BIRTH in Tammuz June/July Elul / Tishri (Feast of Booths) Elul/Tishri (Feast of Booths) Tevet/ Dec/Jan Adar/Feb/Mar (Purim)

  24. Weeks 9 ,10 December/ January Week29 May Week 3 September

  25. Early church never celebrated Christmas We dont know the birthday of Jesus Bible does not tell us the birthday of Jesus Christmas is a Pagan Practice Most Christians Agree!!

  26. Narrowing the Date

  27. re-read Dr. Luke Zachariah Mary John the Baptist Jesus Luke 1

  28. Luk 1:3 it seemed good to me also, having traced the course of all things accurately from the first, to write unto thee in order, most excellent Theophilus; Luk 1:4 that thou mightest know the certainty concerning the things Zachariah the Priest

  29. Zachariah's Temple Ministry Angel appears Elizabeth conceives Sixth month Annunciation of Mary Birth of John the Baptist Birth of Jesus

  30. + 7 days _

  31. Luke 1:8 Once when Zechariah's division was on duty and he was serving as priest before God, 9 he was chosen by lot, according to the custom of the priesthood, to go into the temple of the Lord and burn incense. 10 And when the time for the burning of incense came, all the assembled worshipers were praying outside.11 Then an angel of the Lord appeared to him, standing at the right side of the altar of incense.

  32. Where did the Vision take place?

  33. Inside the Holy of Holies Then he shall kill the goat of the sin offering, which is for the people, bring its blood inside the veil

  34. Luke 1:21 indicates that while Zachariah was inside the temple, people were anxiously waiting outside. Outside what? Why could not they go in and bring him out? No one except the High Priest could enter in this Holy of Holiesthat on the Day of Atonement Only People can be in these places Holies outer Court

  35. The only possible place of vision is the Holy of Holies Heb 9:1- 7 Now the first covenant had regulations for worship and also an earthly sanctuary. ......Above the ark were the cherubim of the Glory, overshadowing the atonement cover. ......When everything had been arranged like this, the priests entered regularly into the outer room to carry on their ministry. But only the high priest entered the inner room, and that only once a year, and never without blood, ...

  36. This happens only once a year on Yom Kippur

  37. Lev. 16:12-13 He is to take a censer full of burning coals from the altar before the LORD and two handfuls of finely ground fragrant incense and take them behind the curtain. He is to put the incense on the fire before the LORD, and the smoke of the incense will conceal the atonement cover above the Testimony, so that he will not die.

  38. The Feast of Sucoth lasted from the 15 Tishri to the 21st of Tishri, culminating on 22nd Tishri, the Great Day – Hoshana Raba also known as Rosh HashanahThe Last Great Day – Rosh Hosanah- falls on 22nd Tishri. His service ended on 22nd of Tishri on the Eighth day a Sunday.

  39. Yom Kippur According to the Bible Calendar, the tenth day of the seventh month (Tishri) is the Day of Atonement. The Jews call it Yom Kippur. We know this date for certain.
