The Captivity and Christ First Coming!

The captivity of Judah and the first coming of Christ are synonymous and very important in the study of eschatology. This is so because the 70 weeks prophecy God gave Daniel begins with the captivity and the 69 weeks predict Christ first coming while the end of the 70 weeks talks about the great tribulation. More so, the end of the 70 weeks marks the beginning of the millennial reign of Jesus Christ. From previous study, the restoration of Jerusalem was in 457 BC and Christ was anointed in AD 27. Which means, 69 weeks or 483 years cut across the captivity and his anointing as the Messiah by John the baptist. From this findings, We can actually say that Jesus was born in AD 3. This date however has been confirmed by theologians, historians and NASA.
