Premillennial order

By Prophet Jacob R. Blandford

 

The last book in the Hebrew Bible is 2 Chronicles.  The last verse of that Hebrew Bible tells that Jew to go up to Jerusalem and rebuild.  As you know the last Book of our (Protestant) Old Testament canon is Malachi.  And the layout of 2 Chr.–Psalms in our King James Bible is Premillennial.  Because in the last chapter of 2 Chr., Cyrus (cf. Is. 45) commands the Jews to go back to Jerusalem.  (That was the Balfour Declaration in 1917 under King George of England.)  Then in Ezra the Jews go back.  Then in Nehemiah they rebuilt the city.  Then in Esther God dumps the Gentiles (see Luke 21:24) (which is Vashti) and gets a Jewish bride (Esther).  Then in Job, Job is persecuted by Satan and the book is 42 chapters long (42 months of the great tribulation) and then, in the 42nd and last chapter, God turns Job’s “captivity” (v. 10).  Finally, in the Book of Psalms, Israel is in her "Blessed" (Ps. 1:1) and happy state, where the Son of God sits and rules with a rod of iron on Mount Zion (see Ps. 2), which is the Second Advent of Jesus Christ.  Then Proverbs pictures the Lord’s teaching ministry where the law of wisdom will come out of Zion for 1,000 years (cf. Is. 2:3; Mic. 4:2).  The Millennium will be the 7th Day (2 Pet. 3:8) of world history and the Sabbatical Reign of Jesus Christ (Is. 14:7; Mark 2:28; Rev. Ch. 20).  Then Ecclesiastes pictures Satan’s last futile or vain (note the use of the word “vanity” in Ecc.) attempt to overthrow God one final time at the end of the Millennium (Rev. 20:7-10).  Finally, The Song of Solomon is the picture of the long-awaited New Jerusalem coming to God’s people as “a bride adorned for her husband” (Rev. 21:2)!  Eight is the number of new beginnings.  Eight represents the new heaven and new earth (2 Pet. 3:13; Rev. 21 & 22).  And Canticles just happens to be eight Chapters long!

 

This is not all.  We also have the house of the Lord destroyed in Jer. 52. (Which will also happen in the tribulation temple after “the abomination of desolation”.)  Followed by the Book of Lamentations.  (Which again, is a picture of the great tribulation like the Book of Job, and the word “captivity” is found 5 times in Lamentations.)  Now, when this “captivity” ends (cf. Ps. 14:7, 53:6), or rather when Lam. ends, the next Book in the Protestant canon is Ezekiel: where the Lord shows up in Chapter 1—a picture of the Second Coming!

 

P.S. The Roman Catholic and Jewish bibles don’t have the proper order so they miss this revelation.  In the Catholic canon Baruch (an apocryphal book) is after Lamentations and in the Hebrew Scriptures Ecclesiastes is after Lamentations—only that swift, twoedged 1611 Protestant Reformation Blade gives you the truth on eschatology.

 

As an additional note: Psalm 78 is a “parable” (v. 2) [cf. Matt. 13:35], it teaches you that the Old Testament Jewish history is prophetic because it will be repeated in the tribulation (e.g. the plagues of Egypt and the plagues of Revelation).  This Psalm also mentions the “captivity” (v. 61) and then three verses later we find the word “lamentation” (v. 64).  Well, well, I just told you that after the Book of Lamentations you have a picture of the Second Advent in Ezek. 1, so what do you have after the word “lamentation” in Psalm 78:64?  The very next verse is... you guessed it, the Second Coming of our Lord Jesus Christ!  Quote, “...Their priests fell by the sword; and their widows made no lamentation. Then the Lord awaked as one out of sleep, and like a mighty man that shouteth by reason of wine. And he smote his enemies in the hinder parts: he put them to a perpetual reproach.” (Ps. 78:64-66)  Christ destroys Israel’s enemies and delivers the nation, and then the rest of the Psalm describes, in type, the Son of God’s Millennial Davidic dominion. (see Ezek. 34:23, 37:24)
