DAVID C. MITCHELL | 2024 25 END OF 6TH MILLENNIUM: AWAITING THE MILLENNIAL KINGDOM

The Church Fathers and the sages of Israel taught that the world-age would endure six millennial ‘days’ — that is, 6,000 years — from the day of the creation of Adam. After the 6,000 years would come the Sabbath millennium, when the Messiah would reign on earth from Jerusalem for a thousand years. Yet the Bible also calculates the ages of the world in forty-nine-year jubilee cycles. If we put together these two ancient means of calculating the timetable of the ages, we arrive, with surprising clarity, at a timetable that points directly to our own days. The last jubilee year of the sixth millennium begins this Fall, on 10 Tishri 2024, and runs till 29 Elul, Fall 2025. There’s some careful research involved in proposing this position. You'll find all the details in David C. Mitchell's new book, Awaiting the Millennial Kingdom. It traces the teaching on the millennial Sabbath from its origins in Genesis, through the Psalms and the prophets, the intertesta­mental texts, the New Testament and Nazarene texts, Rabbinic and Patristic literature. We deal with historic premillen­nialism, Roman and medieval amillennialism, postmillennialism and dispensational premillennialism to gain a proper perspective on what we should be looking for in these last days. The conclusion is that everything is happening according to plan. He is not late. (He is never late.) He is coming soon. This book continues David Mitchell’s series on messianic prophecy. As The Message of the Psalter looks at the messianic kingdom, as Messiah ben Joseph looks at the Messiah’s atonement, as Jesus: The Incarnation of the Word looks at how he came in flesh, so Awaiting the Millennial Kingdom examines his return in glory.
