                                   CHAPTER 5

                    THE 7,000-YEAR PLAN OF G-D

                                  (Part 3 of 3)


                     THE HIDING OF KING JOASH

     King Joash was hidden in the Temple (Beit HaMikdash) for six
years. At the beginning of the seventh year, King Joash was crowned
King over Israel. In II Kings (Melachim) 11:1-4, 21 it is written:

      "And when Athaliah the mother of Ahaziah saw that her son was
      dead, she arose and destroyed all the seed royal. But Jehosheba,
      the daughter of king Joram, sister of Ahaziah, took Joash the
      son of Ahaziah, and stole him from among the king's sons which
      were slain; and they hid him, even him and his nurse, in the
      bedchamber from Athaliah, so that he was not slain. And he was
      with her hid in the house of the Lord six years. And Athaliah
      did reign over the land. And the seventh year Jehoiada sent and
      fetched the rulers over hundreds, with the captains and the
      guard, and brought them to him into the house of the Lord, and
      made a covenant with them, and took an oath of them in the house
      of the Lord, and showed them the king's son . seven years old
      was Jehoash when he began to reign."

     In this story, King Joash is a type of the Jewish Messiah
(Mashiach) Yeshua/Jesus. In traditional Jewish thought (house of
Judah), the Messiah (Mashiach) is one of the seven things created
before the creation of the world and the timing of his coming or the
redemption is also one of the seven things which are hidden from man
(Talmud, Pesachim 54). Therefore, King Joash is a spiritual picture /
blueprint given to us by the G-d of Israel to teach us that the
Jewish Messiah (Mashiach) Yeshua/Jesus would be hid from ruling and
reigning on the earth (physically) as King (Zechariah 14:9) for 6,000
years (the end of the Olam Hazeh).

       At the end of 6,000 years (Olam Hazeh), the Jewish Messiah
(Mashiach) Yeshua/Jesus will be crowned King on the Feast of Trumpets
(Rosh HaShanah). In traditional Jewish thought (house of Judah), this
is the coronation day of the King. The coronation of the Jewish
Messiah (Mashiach) Yeshua/Jesus on the Feast of Trumpets (Rosh
HaShanah) to rule and reign in righteousness as King over all the
earth is revealed to us in Revelation 5. In Revelation 5:1-5 it is written:

      "And I saw in the right hand of him that sat on the throne a
      book written within and on the backside, sealed with seven
      seals. And I saw a strong angel proclaiming with a loud voice,
      Who is worthy to open the book, and to loose the seals thereof?
      And no man in heaven nor in earth, neither under the earth, was
      able to open the book, neither to look thereon. And I wept much,
      because no man was found worthy to open and to read the book,
      neither to look thereon. And one of the elders saith unto me,
      Weep not: behold, the Lion of the tribe of Juda, the Root of
      David, hath prevailed to open the book, and to loose the seven
      seals thereof."

     The Jewish Messiah (Mashiach) Yeshua/Jesus is the King of kings
 and the L-rd of lords (Zechariah  14:9, Philippians 2:9-11,
Revelation 19:11-16).


                                     THE STEPS
                      TO KING SOLOMON'S THRONE

     King Soloman (Shlomo) had six steps to his throne and the seventh
step was his throne. In II Chronicles 9:18 it is written:

      "And there were six steps to the throne, with a footstool of
      gold, which were fastened to the throne, and stays on each side
      of the sitting place, and two lions standing by the stays."

     This is a spiritual picture/blueprint given to us by the G-d of
Israel that mankind is climbing a stairway of six steps (6,000 years
of time known as the Olam Hazeh) until we reach that seventh step
(the Messianic Age/Athid Lavo) when the Jewish Messiah (Mashiach)
Yeshua/Jesus will be crowned King of kings and L-rd of lords
(Zechariah 14:9, Revelation 19:11-16).


                                 KING SOLOMON
                         IS A TYPE OF THE MESSIAH

     King Solomon is a type of the Jewish Messiah (Mashiach)
     Yeshua/Jesus.

           1. Solomon (Shlomo) sat upon the throne of his father David
           (I Kings [Melachim] 2:12) and was given the throne of his
           father David (I Kings [Melachim] 3:6-7).

           The Jewish Messiah (Mashiach) Yeshua/Jesus sat upon the
           throne of His father David and He was given the throne of
           His father David (Luke 1:30-32, Acts 2:29-30).

           2. Solomon's (Shlomo) kingdom was established greatly (I
           Kings [Melachim] 2:12) and the throne of David shall be
           established before the L-rd forever (I Kings [Melachim]
           2:45).

           The Jewish Messiah (Mashiach) Yeshua/Jesus' kingdom shall
           have no end (Isaiah [Yeshayahu] 9:6-7, Luke 1:33).

           3. Solomon reigned over all the kingdoms and they served
           Solomon all the days of his life (I Kings [Melachim] 4:21).
          

           The Jewish Messiah (Mashiach) Yeshua/Jesus will rule over
           all the kingdoms and they shall serve Him forever (Daniel
           2:44, 7:14, 27).

           4. Solomon (Shlomo) is the Strong's word 8010 in the Hebrew
           Concordance which means "Peaceful." Solomon (Shlomo) which
           is the Strong's word 8010 comes from the Strong's word 7965
           which is the Hebrew word shalom which means "peace."

           The Jewish Messiah (Mashiach) Yeshua/Jesus is called the
           "Prince of Peace" (Isaiah [Yeshayahu] 9:6).

           5. Solomon (Shlomo) was king in the midst of his people (I
           Kings [Melachim] 3:7-8).

           The Jewish Messiah (Mashiach) Yeshua/Jesus will be King in
           the midst of His people (Isaiah [Yeshayahu] 12:6 = Psalm
           [Tehillim] 89:18, Zechariah 2:10-11).

           6. Solomon (Shlomo) was the wisest of earthly kings (I
           Kings [Melachim] 3:5, 9-13, 4:29-31, 10:23, II Chronicles
           9:22-23).

           The Jewish Messiah (Mashiach) Yeshua/Jesus is the wisdom of
           the G-d of Israel (I Corinthians 1:24, Colossians 2:2-3).

           7. Solomon (Shlomo) built the Temple (Beit HaMikdash) and
           he had rest on every side (I Kings [Melachim] 5:2-4, 6:9,
           14).

           The Jewish Messiah (Mashiach) Yeshua/Jesus will build the
           Temple (Beit HaMikdash) of the Messianic Age (Athid Lavo)
           and will have rest on every side (Zechariah 6:12-13). The
           Branch (Zechariah 6:12) is a term for the Jewish Messiah
           (Mashiach) Yeshua/Jesus (Isaiah [Yeshayahu] 11:1, 10).

           8. Solomon (Shlomo) was given wisdom and understanding to
           righteously judge good and evil. (I Kings (Melachim)
           3:9-13).

           The Jewish Messiah (Mashiach) Yeshua/Jesus has wisdom and
           understanding to righteously judge good and evil. (Isaiah
           [Yeshayahu] 11:1-6).

           9. The whole earth sought Solomon (Shlomo) to hear his
           wisdom (I Kings [Melachim] 10:24).

           The whole earth will speak of the wisdom of the Jewish
           Messiah (Mashiach) Yeshua/Jesus during the Messianic Age.
           (Psalm [Tehillim] 145:1, 11-13).

           10. During the reign of Solomon (Shlomo), every man was
           "under his vine and fig tree" (I Kings [Melachim] 4:25).

           "Under his vine and under his fig tree" is a Jewish "idiom"
           for the 1,000-year Messianic Age (Athid Lavo).

           During the reign of the Jewish Messiah (Mashiach)
           Yeshua/Jesus during the Messianic Age (Athid Lavo) every
           man will sit "under his vine and under his fig tree" (Micah
           4:3-4, John 1:47-49).


                 THE MARRIAGE IN CANA OF GALILEE

     The book of John (Yochanan) beginning in John 1:19 through John
2:1 will outline events which will happen over seven days of time.

           1. John 1:19 = Day 1

           2. John 1:29 = Day 2

           3. John 1:35 = Day 3

           4. John 1:43 = Day 4

           After the fourth day, the Jewish Messiah (Mashiach)
           Yeshua/Jesus will go forth into Galilee. Galilee is the
           Strong's word 1551 in the Hebrew dictionary. The word
           Galilee in Hebrew means "a circle." A circle is a synonym
           for heaven. These four days are a spiritual
           picture/blueprint given to us by the G-d of Israel that the
           Jewish Messiah (Mashiach) Yeshua/Jesus would come to the
           earth after being in heaven/circle (Olam Haba) 4,000 years
           from the creation of Adam in the Garden of Eden (Gan Eden).

           5. John 2:1 describes a marriage in Cana of Galilee on the
           third day. This third day (after the four previous days) is
           the seventh day. On this day, there is a wedding.

           This is a spiritual picture/blueprint given to us by the
           G-d of Israel that after 6,000 years of time (the end of
           the Olam Hazeh) He will enter into the fullness of the
           marriage with His people when the Jewish Messiah (Mashiach)
           Yeshua/Jesus will rule and reign with His Bride during the
           Messianic Age (Athid Lavo). In traditional Jewish thought
           (house of Judah), the Feast of Trumpets (Rosh HaShanah) is
           the day of the fullness of the wedding of the G-d of Israel
           with His people.


                JOSHUA CROSSING THE JORDAN RIVER

     The crossing of the Jordan river by the children of Israel is a
spiritual picture/blueprint of the first  6,000 years of time known
as the Olam Hazeh (the present age).

           1. Joshua 3:1 = Day 1

           2. Joshua 3:2 = After three days (Day 4), the children of
           Israel cross the Jordan river.

           In this Scripture passage, Joshua (Yehoshua) is a type of
           the Jewish Messiah (Mashiach) Yeshua/Jesus. Joshua is the
           Strong's word 3091 in the Hebrew dictionary. Jesus is the
           Strong's word 2424 in the Greek dictionary of the New
           Testament (Brit Hadashah) and corresponds to the Hebrew
           name Joshua (Yehoshua).

           Joshua became the leader of the children of Israel after
           the death of Moses (Moshe) and led G-d's chosen people into
           the Promised Land. These four days are a spiritual
           picture/blueprint given to us by the G-d of Israel of the
           Jewish Messiah (Mashiach) Yeshua/Jesus coming to the earth
           4,000 years after the creation of Adam in the Garden of
           Eden (Gan Eden) to lead all those who would put their
           faith, trust and confidence (emunah) in Him into the
           Promised Land of the Messianic Kingdom.

           3. Joshua 3:3-4. There is a space of 2,000 cubits between
           the ark of the covenant and the children of Israel.

           These 2,000 cubits are a spiritual picture/blueprint given
           to us by the G-d of Israel that the Jewish nation (house of
           Judah) as a corporate people would remove themselves from
           the G-d of Israel's spiritual ark of the covenant (the
           Jewish Messiah [Mashiach] Yeshua/Jesus) for 2,000 years
           following the first coming of Yeshua/Jesus as the suffering
           Messiah (Mashiach) known as Messiah ben Yosef (Joseph). At
           the end of 6,000 years of time (Olam Hazeh), the Jewish
           people as a corporate nation will accept Yeshua/Jesus as
           their Messiah (Mashiach). In Hosea (Hoshea) 5:15, 6:1-3 it
           is written:

                "I will go and return to my place, till they
                acknowledge their offense, and seek my face: in their
                affliction they will seek me early. Come and let us
                return unto the Lord: for he hath torn, and he will
                heal us; he hath smitten, and he will bind us up.
                After two days [2,000 years from the Messiah's first
                coming] will he revive us: in the third day [the
                Messianic Age/Athid Lavo] he will raise us up, and we
                shall live in his sight. Then shall we know, if we
                follow on to know the Lord: his going forth is
                prepared as the morning; and he shall come unto us as
                the rain, as the latter and former rain unto the
                earth."

           4. Joshua 3:5. Sanctify yourselves for TOMORROW the L-rd
           will do wonders among you.

           Joshua 3:7. The Lord said to Joshua, THIS DAY will I begin
           to magnify thee in the sight of all of Israel.

           The TOMORROW and the THIS DAY = Four days + 2,000 cubits or
           6,000 years.

           After 6,000 years (Olam Hazeh / the present age), the L-rd
           will magnify the sight of the Jewish Messiah (Mashiach)
           Yeshua/Jesus in the sight of all of Israel during the time
           of Jacob's (Ya'acov's trouble - Jeremiah [Yermiyahu] 30:7)
           tribulation/birth pangs of the Messiah (Chevlai shel
           Mashiach).


                             THE BIRTH OF JACOB

     The birth of Jacob (Ya'acov) is a spiritual picture/blueprint of
6,000 years (Olam Hazeh). Jacob (Ya'acov) is Israel (Genesis
[Bereishit] 32:27-28).

           1. Isaac (Yitzchak) is 40 years old when he marries Rebekah
           (Rivkah) (Genesis [Bereishit] 25:20).

           Isaac (Yitzchak) is a type of the Jewish Messiah (Mashiach)
           Yeshua/Jesus. These 40 years are a spiritual
           picture/blueprint that the Jewish Messiah (Mashiach)
           Yeshua/Jesus will come to the earth at His first coming as
           the suffering Messiah (Mashiach) known as Messiah ben Yosef
           (Joseph).

           2. Rebekah (Rivkah) will be barren for 20 years before
           Jacob (Israel) is born (Genesis [Bereishit] 25:21,26).

           After 20 years (2,000 years), Rebekah (Rivkah) bears Jacob
           (Ya'acov). This is a spiritual picture/blueprint given to
           us by the G-d of Israel that 2,000 years following the
           first coming of the Jewish Messiah (Mashiach) Yeshua/Jesus
           as the suffering Messiah known to the Jewish people (house
           of Judah) as Messiah ben Yosef (Joseph), the Jewish people
           (house of Judah) as a corporate nation will accept the
           Jewish Messiah (Mashiach) Yeshua/Jesus as their Messiah.



                  THE CHILDREN OF JACOB BY LEAH

     In Genesis (Bereishit) 29, Leah has seven children. This is a
spiritual picture/blueprint given to us by  the G-d of Israel of His
7,000-year redemptive plan from the creation of Adam in the Garden of
Eden (Gan Eden) to the end of the Messianic Age (Athid Lavo).

           1. The first son is Reuben (Genesis [Bereishit] 29:32).
           Reuben is the Strong's word 7205 which comes from two
           Hebrew words. These two Hebrew words are the Strong's word
           7200 which means "to see" and the Strong's word 1121 which
           means "a son." So, Reuben means "to see a son."

           2. The second son is Simeon (Genesis [Bereishit] 29:33).
           Simeon is the Strong's word 8095 in the Hebrew dictionary
           and comes from the Strong's word 8085 which is the Hebrew
           word "Shema" which means "to hear." So, the name Simeon
           means "hearing."

           3. The third son is Levi (Genesis [Bereishit] 29:34). Levi
           is the Strong's word 3878 in the Hebrew dictionary and
           comes from the Strong's word 3867 which is the Hebrew word
           "Lavah" which means "to join." So, the name Levi means "to
           join."

           4. The fourth son is Judah (Genesis [Bereishit] 29:35).
           Judah is the Strong's word 3063 which is the Hebrew word
           "Yehudah" which means "to praise."

           Judah (Yehudah) is the fourth son of Leah. It was
           prophesied by the G-d of Israel though Jacob (Ya'acov) that
           the scepter (authority to rule and reign) would not depart
           from Judah and that the Jewish Messiah (Mashiach) would be
           from the tribe of Judah. In Genesis (Bereishit) 49:10 it is
           written:

                "The scepter shall not depart from Judah, nor a
                lawgiver from between his feet, until Shiloh [a term
                for the Jewish Messiah] come; and unto him shall the
                gathering of the people be."

           Even as Judah (Yehudah) was the fourth son of Leah, the
           Jewish Messiah (Mashiach) Yeshua/Jesus came to the earth
           4,000 years from the creation of Adam in the Garden of Eden
           (Gan Eden) and was born from the tribe of Judah (Hebrews
           7:14, Revelation 5:5). After four children, Leah's womb
           stops (Genesis [Bereishit] 29:35). This is a spiritual
           picture/blueprint given to us by the G-d of Israel that the
           Jewish people (house of Judah) would not receive the Jewish
           Messiah (Mashiach) Yeshua/Jesus as a corporate nation
           during His first coming as the suffering Messiah known as
           Messiah ben Yosef (Joseph) following the creation of Adam
           in the Garden of Eden (Gan Eden).

           5. The fifth son is Issachar (Genesis [Bereishit] 30:18).
           Issachar is the Strong's word 3485 in the Hebrew
           dictionary. Issachar comes from the Strong's word 7939
           which means "hire or wages." So, Issachar means "my hiring
           or my wages."

           This is a spiritual picture/blueprint given to us by the
           G-d of Israel that following the first coming of the Jewish
           Messiah (Mashiach) Yeshua/Jesus as the suffering Messiah
           known as Messiah ben Yosef (Joseph) and the destruction of
           the Temple (Beit HaMikdash) that the Jewish people (house
           of Judah) would be scattered among the nations as a "hired"
           people.

           6. The sixth son is Zebulun (Genesis [Bereishit] 30:19-20).
           Zebulun is the Strong's word 2074 in the Hebrew dictionary.
           Zebulun comes from the Strong's word 2082 which means "to
           dwell." So, Zebulun means "dwelling."

           This is a spiritual prophetic/blueprint given to us by the
           G-d of Israel that after 6,000 years of time (Olam
           Hazeh/the present age) He will dwell with His people
           through the Jewish Messiah (Mashiach) Yeshua/Jesus during
           the Messianic Age (Athid Lavo).

           7. The seventh child is a daughter named Dinah (Genesis
           [Bereishit] 30:21). Dinah is the Strong's word 1783. It is
           related to the Strong's word 1779 which is "Din" which
           means "to judge." So, Dinah means "judge."

           Dinah (female) is a spiritual picture/blueprint given to us
           by the G-d of Israel that after 6,000 years of time (Olam
           Hazeh) the Jewish Messiah (Mashiach) Yeshua/Jesus will live
           and dwell with His Bride (female) during the Messianic Age
           (Athid Lavo) ruling and reigning with her judging the
           nations. In I Corinthians 6:2-3 it is written:

      "Do ye not know that the saints shall judge the world? . know ye
      not that we shall judge angels? how much more things that
      pertain to this life?"

           In Revelation 5:10 it is written:

      "And hast made us unto our God kings and priests: and we shall
      reign on the earth."

           In Revelation 20:4 it is written:

      "And I saw thrones, and they sat upon them, and judgment was
      given unto them: and I saw the souls of them that were beheaded
      for the witness of Jesus, and for the word of God, and which had
      not worshiped the beast, neither his image, neither had received
      his mark upon their foreheads, or in their hands; and they lived
      and reigned with Christ a thousand years."


                             CHAPTER SUMMARY

     In this chapter, we studied the 7,000-year redemptive plan of the
G-d of Israel. In doing so, we were able to understand that the G-d
of Israel gave the seven days of creation in the book of Genesis
(Bereishit) as a prophetic foreshadowing of His 7,000-year plan for
man following the creation of Adam in the Garden of Eden (Gan Eden).
Each day in creation represents 1,000 years of time. The seventh day
of creation (Sabbath) is a prophetic picture/blueprint of the
1,000-year Messianic Age (Athid Lavo).

     These 7,000 years of time were outlined for us in Genesis
(Bereishit) 1:1 with the six occurrences of the Hebrew letter, Alef.
The fourth word in Hebrew in Genesis (Bereishit) 1:1 is the Hebrew word (Alef, Tav) which spiritually
represents the Jewish Messiah (Mashiach) Yeshua/Jesus. This fourth
letter is also a spiritual picture/blueprint given to us by the G-d
of Israel that the Jewish Messiah (Mashiach) Yeshua/Jesus would come
to the earth as the suffering Messiah known as Messiah ben Yosef
(Joseph) 4,000 years after the creation of Adam and Eve.

     We examined the Biblical evidence through genealogy and
chronology that the Jewish Messiah (Mashiach) Yeshua/Jesus came to
the earth around 4,000 years following the creation of Adam in the
Garden of Eden (Gan Eden). Finally, we studied Biblical
pictures/blueprints (sod/deeper meaning) of the 7,000-year prophetic
plan of the G-d of Israel using various examples in Scripture.

     In order for full restoration to come to both the house of Judah
(Judaism) and the house of Israel (Christianity), Christianity (house
of Israel) must begin to replace their traditional prophetic
understanding of time based upon dispensationalism (age of law/age of
grace) with the 7,000-year redemptive plan of the G-d of Israel.
Meanwhile, the house of Judah (Judaism) needs to realize that the
Jewish Messiah (Mashiach) Yeshua/Jesus came to the earth 4,000 years
following the creation of Adam in the Garden of Eden (Gan Eden) as
the suffering Messiah known as Messiah ben Yosef (Joseph) at the
exact time when they were expecting the G-d of Israel to send the
Jewish Messiah (Mashiach).

     May the G-d of Israel bring redemption, restoration,
 reconciliation and unity to both houses of Israel speedily in our
days. Amen !!
