Tiberius Caesar's 15th Year and Tribulation Start 2016

Date of Tiberius Caesars 15th Year using Least Squares Regression & Consensus Dating O. P. Armstrong - July 2014

_______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________

The Gregorian Date for the Fifteenth Year of Tiberius Caesar was determined using least squares regression analysis and consensus statistical analysis applied to the Chronology by Prophecy (CbP) method. The most likely date of Tiberius Caesars 15th year was determined by this analysis to be 27AD using a normalized data set and 30AD without normalization, Table 1. The results are shown in Table 1 Column b. Table 1 also shows Christ birth year (col.c), Exodus year (col.d), and year of Solomons Temple Completion (col.e), based on these two results. The most likely correct date of Tiberius Caesars 15th year is 27AD. This consideration is from the birth year of baby Jesus. A year of 1BC is too late by most chronologists.

As given in Table 1, the most likely year for Israels

Exodus from Egypt would be 1462BC and the most likely

date for the completion year of Solomons Temple would

be 975BC for Tiberius Caesars 15th year being 27AD.

Method

A grand total of 19 dates were used to statically

determine Tiberius Caesars 15th year. The method

used least squares minimization of error difference.

Two error functions were computed and averaged.

The 1st is the difference between TCs 15

th years and

the Exodus date as determined by various workers.

Chronology by Prophesy determined there to be

1488.5 years difference between these two dates. See

Table 2 to review method calculation.

The second error function (Table 3) looked at the years

between TCs 15th year and the completion date for

Solomons temple. CbP finds the year difference to be

1000.9. The error function minimized the difference

between provided data and 1000.9 years.

The RMS sum of the error is then minimized by

changing the assumed correct base year for TCs 15th

year using the Solver routine of Excel to find min error.

A further refinement was made by tossing out the high

and low years for the 2 events (Exodus and Temple

Completion). AKA normalization

This overall method is known as consensus forecasting.

The implications of this work are given by Table4. The

method of calculation is shown in Appendix 4. Other objective

functions, (OFs), were also evaluated by this method. The result of

using an additional 4 OFs confirmed a late 26 to 27AD result.

Those functions were 1) Rebuild Decree & 483 Year Prophesy, 2)

Passover Count & midst of week (3.5Y) cutoff or crucify, 3) Jesus

Birth Year & About 30Yr old, 4) Jerusalem destroyed 70AD & Jonah Sign..

Appendix I Corresponding Witnesses, 1. Witness of Chronology Research A) Ussher Annals

1A) The Romans dated the beginning of their

history from the supposed date of the founding of

the city ("Ab Urbe Condita" or AUC &

754AUC=1AD as usually abbreviated). Dionysius

Exiguus calculated that the year of our Lord's birth

was 753 AUC, 1BC. He made his equivalence of

dates from Lu3:1, "Now in the fifteenth year of the

reign of Tiberius Caesar" etc., at which time Christ

was 30 years of age according to Lu3:23. But it

was ascertained later that a mistake of four years

had been made; for it clearly appears by Mt2:1 that

Christ was born before the death of Herod, who

died in 749 AUC, 5BC Tiberius succeeded

Augustus, Aug. 19, 767 AUC, 14AD. Hence his

15th year would be 779 AUC, 26AD; and from

those facts Dionysius was right in his calculation.

But it was discovered in later years that Tiberius

began to reign as colleague with Augustus four

years before the latter died. Hence the 15th year

mentioned by Luke was four years earlier than was

supposed by Dionysius and consequently the birth

of Christ was that many years earlier than the date

selected by Exiguus, which date has been followed

ever since. This must be allowed for in any

computation of dates which involves events

happening before Christ. "The Wonders of Bible Chronology", Page 84,85, Philip Mauro, first published 1922,

Reprinted by, Reiner Publications, Swengel, Pennsylvania

4030a AM, 4739 JP, 26 AD pp 6282. It was in the

15th year of the reign of Tiberius Caesar, (which

was the 13th of his empire which began after the

death of Augustus) when Pontius Pilate was

governor of Judea, Herod (Antipas), the tetrarch of

Galilee and his brother Philip, tetrarch of Ituraea

and the region of Trachonitis and Lysanias, tetrarch

of Abylene, under the priesthoods of Annas and

Caiphas. The word of the Lord came to John, the

son of Zacharias in the desert. {Lu3:1,2} He by

God's authority was a Nazarite who was both a

priest and prophet of the Lord and baptized in the

desert of Judea. (These cities were mentioned in

{Jos15:1-6}) He preached the baptism of

repentance for the remission of sins.

{Mt3:1 Mr1:4 Lu3:3} By his ministry, he announced

and made known to Israel, Christ who would come

after him. {Joh1:7,8,13} So John would certainly

know who he was, God gave him this sign.

Whomever he saw the Holy Ghost descending on

and remaining, he would know that it was he that

should baptize others with the Holy Ghost.

{Joh1:33}

4030b AM, 4740 JP, 27 AD pp6288. When all the

people were being baptized, Jesus came from

Nazareth of Galilee to the Jordan to be baptized of

John. {Lu3:21 Mt3:13 Mr1:9} John denied that Jesus

needed any baptism from him but the Lord urged

him and said that it was needful that all

righteousness be fulfilled. Then John baptized him.

{Mt3:14,15} Jesus was about 30 years old. {Lu3:23}

1B) Analysis of Jay Rogers, Frontrunner

In eastern provinces [of the Roman empire]

years were reckoned from the accession of the

reigning emperor, the second beginning on the first

New Years day after the accession, and the date

on which this occurred varied from one province to

another (Encyclopedia Britannica).

If Tiberius was installed before the New Year,

which occurred in the late summer in the eastern

provinces, it is likely that Luke and his audience of

Greek speaking Christians counted the accession

year twice. The year 14 AD in our modern

reckoning, contained Tiberias first and second

year. The fall of 15 AD was his third year, and so

on until the fall of 27 AD, which was his 15th year.

Another way of reckoning the beginning of Tiberias

reign is to predate to 13 AD, the year when

Tiberias became co-princeps with Augustus, a

common arrangement among the Emperors. At this

time, the powers held by Tiberius were made

equal, rather than second, to Augustuss own

powers. In the event of the Emperors passing the

latter would simply continue to rule without any

political upheaval. In this case, according to our

modern reckoning of years, Tiberias fifteenth

year would have been in the fall of 26AD


_______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________

Either of these two reckonings fits Lukes account. Since both John and Jesus were both 30 years old by 26 AD, they could have entered the ministry anytime from late 26 to late 27. This squares with the other dates offered by Luke.

Pontius Pilate was ruler over Judea from 26 to 36 AD.

Caiaphas was high priest during the same period, 26 to 35 AD.

Herod Phillip II, tetrarch of Ituraea and Trachonitis was born in 4 BC and died in 34 AD.

Herod Antipas, tetrarch of Galilee and Peraea, was born in 20 BC and died in 40 AD.

Lysanias, tetrarch of Abilene, ruled the province between c.14 to 29 AD.

When Luke numbers the year of Tiberias reign as 15 and gives the names of several other rulers, he indicates a time window of about three years for

the beginning of Jesus ministry no earlier than 26 and no later than 29AD. Having decided on this, it becomes fairly certain that Jesus began His public ministry sometime between late 26AD to early 28 AD

1C Mr. KF Doig, NT Chronology

As with his other timed references, Luke, a Greek,

was using the Syro-Macedonian calendar familiar

to Theophilus, the Greek recipient of his letters in

Antioch. This calendar system led to the dating of

the Annunciation in the "sixth month" on March 25,

coinciding with the appearance of the first nova, or

Star of the Magi. Luke's use of this method of

dating is here continued. This calendar was in use

through much of the Middle East, including Judea,

and would here be an expected reference. The

usual reckoning was by the years of the Syrian

Seleucid Era, which dated by the Syro-Macedonian

calendar. The rulers of that area reckoned their

reigns by this calendar, as discussed in the chapter

on "Herodian Chronology."

They used inclusive reckoning, with the new year

beginning with the fall lunar month of Dios.1

The dating of the reign of Tiberius can be

according to Luke's Syro-Macedonian calendar

Tiberius became Caesar on August 19, 14AD, and

in that year Dios 1 fell on October 15.

Thus, his first regnal year according to the Syro-Macedonian calendar would be from Dios 1 or October 25, 13 until October 14, 14AD. Luke would have measured the fifteen years from that year one by non-accession, or inclusive, reckoning. Thus, the "fifteenth year" fell from October 20, 27 to October 9, 28. According to Luke's Syro-Macedonian reckoning John the Baptist began his ministry between these two dates. This falls in line with the arrival of Pontius Pilate by the autumn of 27. The earliest first Passover of Jesus' ministry would have been in 28. Based on Luke's use of the Syro-Macedonian calendar it was established that John the Baptist began his ministry between October 20, 27 and October 9, 28. This was the "fifteenth year of Tiberius." John began his ministry after the arrival of Pontius Pilate, by the fall of 27. John baptized Jesus soon thereafter, and the traditional date of January 6 is here used. This date is supported by an understanding of Luke's usage of Jesus being "about thirty years" old at that time, and the thirty years are exact by the Jewish or Syro-Macedonian calendars. The chronology will proceed using January 6, 28 as the probable date for the baptism of Jesus. See J. Finegan, Handbook of Biblical Chronology (Princeton: Princeton Univ. Press, 1964), 61-69

1D EF Martin: Are INCLUSIVE countings NORMAL

in the writings of Luke? If Luke was employing the

Syriac year (and traditionally both he and

Theophilus were from Antioch), then Tiberius' 15th

year began with Tishri 1, A.D. 27. This reckoning

would dovetail with the Judahite year in Jerusalem.

This latter deduction appears the most likely. The

Messiah's statement recorded in Luke 4:16-21 can

now be recognized as a reference to the Sabbatical

Year of A.D. 27 to A.D. 28.

Appendix 2 The witness of Prophetic/ Historical for Daniel 69 Weeks

The prophecy of Daniel 9.27 from the issue of decree to rebuild unto Messiah, The Prince also refers to

Jesus revealing as Messiah by Johns baptism in 15th year of Tiberius Caesar. Thus a third method to

find the occurrence of TCs 15th year date. The time from the proclamation unto TCs 15th year is fixed by

prophecy to be 483 years. Daniel9 predicted there to be 69 weeks of years from the going forth of the

decree to rebuild Jerusalem unto Messiah the

prince. Ezra, a descendant of Seraiah the high

priest, was living in Babylon when in the seventh

year (~ 457 BCE) of Artaxerxes, king of Persia, the

king sent him to Jerusalem to teach the laws of

God to any who did not know them.

Adding 69*7=483 years to, say 457BC, gives (483-

457+1 BC2AD) or 27AD. If 458BC is used the

Messianic Prince year would be 26AD April March.

This is in agreement with Usshers work of 4th

quarter 26AD to 4th quarter 27AD as Tiberius C.s

15th year.

Summary

Three methods, 1) Statistical 2) Historical, & 3)

Prophetic/ Historical confirm the Baptism Year of

Jesus to within a narrow range from late 26AD unto

early 28AD. The implications of this for Rapture

and Tribulation Start dates are next considered.

Results are in

this Table.

For the Law

and the

prophets

were until John, since then the Kingdom of God is

preached. The since then refers to Jesus baptism.

Appendix 3 Servant Before: John was to go before the kingdom but he was not the kingdom Behold, I will send my messenger, and he shall

prepare the way before me: and the Lord, whom ye

seek, shall suddenly come to his temple, even the

messenger of the covenant, whom ye delight in:

behold, he shall come, saith the Lord of hosts. &

Behold, I will send you Elijah the prophet before the

coming of the great and dreadful day of the Lord:

And he shall turn the heart of the fathers to the

children, and the heart of the children to their

fathers, lest I come and smite the earth with a

curse.

John was not the kingdom for every kingdom

needs a king. The word of John was prepare ye

the way, make way the kingdom, the kingdom is at

hand, not, 'the kingdom is here'.

And saying, Repent ye: for the kingdom of

heaven is at hand. For this is he that was

spoken of by the prophet Esaias, saying, The

voice of one crying in the wilderness, Prepare

ye the way of the Lord, make his paths straight.

John question to Jesus before his martyrdom in jail

was, "Are you the one or shall we look for

another?" This we know was for benefit of John

disciples. John was had been told 'He upon whom

you see... Is He. From that event, John knew the

kingdom was established at Jesus baptism. Jesus

reply could summarized as ' the kingdom is being

proclaimed with power. Jesus answered; You say

that I am a king. To this end was I born, and for this

cause came I into the world (Jn18.37)

So the date we seek is not when John began

preaching but rather when, under John's preaching,

the Lord, whom ye seek, shall suddenly come to

his temple. That temple was Christ Body for Jesus

said destroy this temple and in 3 days shall I raise

it again.

The space between, start of John preaching and

Jesus baptism, is more than 6 months and less

than 1 year. Thus the date, in the 15th year of

Tiberius Caesar, covers both events. Likely this

uncertainty is where we come into no one knows

the day nor the hour .

Nothing says the return time cannot be ascertained

within a year or a few months.

In fact there are far too many places where we are

told that the general time can be reasonably

determined. Second is the witness of past actions,

for example, In the fullness of time God sent forth

his son born of a virgin, I shall send my servant

before, For it was not yet his time

Appendix4 Times Determination

This is based on last half week postponement unto

the end (after) both the 2520 Days Tribulation and

after the millennium reign. There are 30.437 dy/mo

Daniel last half week is 3.5 years. So 3.5 years

plus tribulation time of 6y11mo. The sum of these

two times is 10y5mo less 7days.

For an Oct26AD Baptism, then 3000 years forward

Another way to count years is from Temple destruction backwards. The date of Destruction is well documented as: Within hours, the temple was destroyed, August 10, 70AD, which was on 15 Av(Ab) 3830, not 9 Av of Talmudic tradition which had accorded "minor adjustments" thereto presumably in remembrance of the first temple's destruction. The new moon preceding the fire occurred July 26 70 AD @ 7:09:03 AM JST(JD 1746831.7), with the full moon @ 6:54:42 PM JST August 10(JD 1746847.2), and 1 Tishri of the following Hebrew calendar year 3831 fell on Monday, Sep 24, 70 AD, so August 10, 70 AD/15 Ab 3830 is definitely the correct date of the fire.

By wicked Generation warning of Jonah is understood Jesus 40 year prophecy of Jerusalem destruction. Counting 40 years back gives August 10, 30AD. This being the likely date when Stephen was stoned and the Elders of the Temple rejected flatly the Gospel. For is found: Then they secretly induced men to say, "We have heard him speak blasphemous words against Moses and God." And they stirred up the people, the elders, and the scribes; and they came upon him, seized him, and brought him to the council. They also set up false witnesses who said, "This man does not cease to speak blasphemous words against this holy place and the law; for we have heard him say that this Jesus of Nazareth will destroy this place and change the customs which Moses delivered to us. Acts6. Indeed Jesus did weep over Jerusalem, saying For days will come upon you when your enemies will build an embankment around you, surround you and close you in on every side, and level you, and your children within you, to the ground; and they will not leave in you one stone upon another, because you did not know the time of your visitation."Then He went into the temple and began to drive out those who bought and sold in it. A confirmation of Jesus Baptism and Crucify date is obtained by count forward from the Rebuild decree year of 457BC by the numbered weeks (69 & 69.5) of Daniel, to arrive at 26.76AD, Baptism, and 30.26AD, Crucify.

This Table details methods and criteria for error minimization by 6 Independent items. The result

determined the most likely 15th Year of Tiberius Caesar to be27.3AD. The result was marginally different

from just using the 1st two criteria. . The 1st two criteria of Exodus date and Solomon temple completion

date were discussed earlier. The rebuild decree date criteria looked at years 457,458, & 444BC. For the

444 date the elapsed year criteria are lunar years converted back to solar years. The Passover count

indicated there to be 3.5 years from anointing to crucify. Various crucify date were used with error count

from Tiberius 15th year. Again a similar criterion is for assumed birth years 4-8 BC unto selected minimum

there would be 31 years. The last criteria added was the 40 year Jonah warning from resurrection year

unto 70AD.

Since the likely baptism event of Jesus by John was in autumn, the closest date would be autumn 26 AD,

and next closest autumn 27AD. Most scholars see either 30 or 33 AD as crucify, then only 26.75AD

works for Jesus baptism, Birth year about 5BC, Passover as 30AD, and decree issue date 457BC and all

that matched to the 40 year warning of Jonah alluded to by Jesus that foretold Jerusalem destroy date of

70AD. The 3.5 year span from Baptism to crucify runs as 26.75AD+3.5=30.25AD.

They who wish match 40year warning to 33AD crucify fall into post dating prophecy. For they must arrive

at 30AD & that, say they, is baptism. However Jesus issued the Jonah warning mid to late ministry.

For the 33AD crucify group, the 15th year of TC then jumps forward to 29AD. The effect is to bring

forward Exodus and Temple completion dates by about 10 years, and add 6.9 years to the age at which

Solomon departed from Torah. That runs the risk of nullifying only Solomon latter years as apostate. A

33AD date also makes Adam age at Sin to be only 19.5. Fearfully close to being adolescent and under

the age of accountability. A surprising effect of last whole week postponement is that Tribulation start

date falls to end of year 2015. That is very close to the spring 2016 tribulation start for a 30AD crucify.

Jesus baptism by John began the Kingdom Epoch, the Law & the prophets were until John, since then the Kingdom is preached. If time is linear, then

knowing one point in the divine calendar allows mapping all other seven days into Gregorian time. Whilst there may be minor disputing about the precise

counting of the 15th year of Tiberius Caesar, etc, all concur to within a few years (range 26AD to 28AD). The birth of Jesus in Year 4BC fits within both

historical and prophetic documentation. The Biblical Seven Days of Creation teach us to consider that God shall complete all his work with fallen mankind

and make a new creation in seven days of one thousand years each. And I saw a New heaven and a New Earth spake John in his Revelation. Seven years

For the earth brings forth fruit of herself; first the blade, then the ear, after that the full corn in the ear.

After 2 days He shall revive us & on the 3rd day He shall raise us up to live in His presence

Jew & Jewrusalem are Gods time piece, seventy weeks are determined upon thy people and your holy city to make an end

As of this writing (July 2014), it very much appears that all the earth & especially the church are in a 3.5 year pre-jubilee window called, the time of the latter rain for a wonderful ingathering harvest.
