    490 Years From Ezra's Decree

    High Level 1

    Fact

    490 years from Ezra's decree to the crucifixion aligns with Daniel's 70 weeks prophecy

    Evidence

    • Daniel 9:24-27 - 'Seventy weeks are decreed' (70 x 7 = 490 years)

    • Ezra 7:7-9 - Decree given in 7th year of Artaxerxes (458 BC)

    • 458 BC + 490 years = 32 AD (accounting for no year zero)

    • The prophecy speaks of 'cutting off' the Anointed One - the crucifixion

    • This alignment is too precise to be coincidence

    • Alternative 457 BC start also works, landing on 33 AD
