Real History: The Timeline of the BibleReal History: The Timeline of the BibleEnd of Exile – Nehemiah Prays for Israel

Nehemiah 1:1-11 Jeremiah 25:11-12, 29:10-14 Month of Kislev – (Est.) December 13 – Kislev 24, 456 BC

Friday July 11 – Tammuz 22, 454 BC (GH)Rebuilding Wall begins on Friday July 18 – Av 4, 455 BC

Wall Completed on 52nd day. Nehemiah 6:15 Completed Sunday September 8 – Elul 25, 455 BC

Daniel’s Prophecy starts on the 4th Day of rebuilding the Wall.

The first Bible Timeline Poster was created on Monday October 30 – Heshvan 7, 2006 (GH). The dates given in Scripture do not match the dates on the current

secular Hebrew Calendar developed after Scripture was written. In less than 41 years, the Gregorian Calendar and the 364-Day Bible Reference Calendar will be exactly seven years apart since the Birth of Jesus. While this cannot be directly connected to the future seven years of Tribulation, it may be later than you think.

CREATION WEEK BEGINS ON A 364-DAY CALENDAR-GENESIS 1:1Sunday October 13, 4115 BC at 6:00 p.m. in Israel is “The Beginning” of Creation Week. At 6:00 p.m. it becomes Monday

October 14 on a 364-Day Calendar and the start of Day 1 of Creation. Day 1 begins with the First Sunset (Evening) followed by the First Sunrise (Morning) which completes the de�nition of a 24-hour day. Creation is completed when Adam and Eve

are created on Saturday October 19, the 6th Day of Creation. God rests on Sunday October 20, 4115 BC which is the 7th Day of Creation Week. The Sunday-to-Sunday Days of Creation Week run parallel to Easter Week when the Genesis and Exodus

Calendars are placed side-by-side. The Days of Creation Week are not on the current secular Hebrew Calendar and occur between Tishri 30 and Heshvan 1. Sunday October 13 becomes Tishri 31 at the end of the �rst year of the 364-Day Calendar.

Noah's Family Enters the Ark Genesis 7:1-16 Wednesday October 30 – Heshvan 10, 2458 BC

The Timeline’s 364-Day Bible Reference Calendar (BR)This Timeline assumes a 364-Day Year Calendar in Scripture. When it is 3:00 p.m. in Israel it is 12 Midnight on the International Date Line. The normal Hebrew Calendar day starts at 6:00 p.m. The Sunday-to-Sunday Days of Creation Week plus the 356-Days of the Hebrew Secular Calendar make up the Bible Reference Calendar (BR) with a total of 364-Days. This Bible Reference Calendar (BR) appears to be consistent with the months and dates given

in Scripture and does not have a leap year. All dates on the Timeline use this Bible Reference Calendar for calculations. The dates and days of the week on this Calendar are

printed in black ink. The Bible Reference Calendar (BR) generates the Gregorian and Julian Solar Calendar days and has the same days on the same day of the week every year.

This Calendar is very similar to a calendar with 364-Days described in the Ancient Hebrew text known as The Book Of Enoch. The Bible Reference Calendar is consistent

with a 364-Day Calendar fragment found at Qumran with Nisan 1 as a Wednesday.

Monday October 22 – Heshvan 1, 4101 BC (GH) Gregorian-Hebrew Calendar 365.2421875 Days per year The Bible Reference Calendar (BR) and the Gregorian-Hebrew Calendar (GH) start on the same day but are 14 years and 8 days apart. 4101 BC (GH) is a corrective leap year with 365 days that is used every 100 years except when the year ends on a Sunday. The Gregorian-Hebrew Calendar (GH) is printed in red ink with 365 days in a year and an extra leap Year Day every 4 years. All (GH) dates are the same day of the week as the Bible Reference Calendar dates in black ink and represent the same dated event. At the Birth of Jesus in 5 BC, the 2 calendars are the same year plus 14 days apart. In the year 2052 AD on the Gregorian Calendar, Monday December 30 will also fall on Monday December 30, 2059 AD on the Bible Reference Calendar (BR). The two calendars will be exactly seven years apart.

Data & Dates for this Timeline were calculated by Jim Liles using only Scripture in the New King James Version of the MacArthur Study Bible. The year of 1445 BC as the year of The Exodus (See Chart on Page 3 of Study Bible) was used as the Anchor Year for the entire Timeline. James Ussher's The Annals of the World and other resources were consulted for methodology only.

Connecting Scripture to Your Desktop CalendarOur current Gregorian Calendar dates the Crucifixion on Friday April 5, 30 AD.

Scripture states this day is Passover which always falls on Nisan 14 on any Hebrew Calendar. On the Gregorian-Hebrew Calendar (GH) Passover always falls

on April 5 in a non-leap year. There are 1,497,938 days from Day #1 of Creation until the end of the year in 1 AD on the Bible Reference and Gregorian Calendars.

example: Moses is born on Nisan 1, is 80 years old on Nisan 17, and 120 years old on Nisan 25. On Noah’s 601st birthday, Tishri 1, he removes the Ark Covering. Tishri 1 is 120 Days after Iyar 28
