My Note: Christmas September 29th Ref. Scripture 1 Chronicles 28:13:
Jesus was conceived about December 24, 5 B.C. and born about September 25, 4 B.C.
Scripture: 1 Chronicles 28:13 Also for the courses of the priests and the Levites, and for all the work of the service of the house of the LORD, and for all the vessels of service in the house of the LORD.
1 Chronicles 24:1 śNow
these are the divisions of the sons of Aaron. The sons of Aaron; Nadab,
and Abihu, Eleazar, and Ithamar.
2 But Nadab and Abihu
died before their father, and had no children: therefore Eleazar and Ithamar
executed the priest's office.
3 And David distributed
them, both Zadok of the sons of Eleazar, and Ahimelech of the sons of Ithamar,
according to their offices in their service.
4 And there were more
chief men found of the sons of Eleazar than of the sons of Ithamar; and
thus were they divided. Among the sons of Eleazar there were sixteen chief
men of the house of their fathers, and eight among the sons of Ithamar
according to the house of their fathers.
5 Thus were they divided
by lot, one sort with another; for the governors of the sanctuary, and
governors of the house of God, were of the sons of Eleazar, and of the
sons of Ithamar.
6 And Shemaiah the son
of Nethaneel the scribe, one of the Levites, wrote them before the king,
and the princes, and Zadok the priest, and Ahimelech the son of Abiathar,
and before the chief of the fathers of the priests and Levites: one principal
household being taken for Eleazar, and one taken for Ithamar.
7 Now the first lot came
forth to Jehoiarib, the second to Jedaiah,
8 The third to Harim,
the fourth to Seorim,
9 The fifth to Malchijah,
the sixth to Mijamin,
1 Chronicles 24:9 The
fifth to Malchijah, the sixth to Mijamin,
10 The seventh to Hakkoz,
the eighth to Abijah,
Right here is the key verse (the eighth to Abijah) needed to determine when Jesus was actually born.
1 Chron. 24:10 tells us when the Course of Abia occurs.
11 The ninth to Jeshua,
the tenth to Shecaniah,
12 The eleventh to Eliashib,
the twelfth to Jakim,
13 The thirteenth to Huppah,
the fourteenth to Jeshebeab,
14 The fifteenth to Bilgah,
the sixteenth to Immer,
15 The seventeenth to
Hezir, the eighteenth to Aphses,
16 The nineteenth to Pethahiah,
the twentieth to Jehezekel,
17 The one and twentieth
to Jachin, the two and twentieth to Gamul,
18 The three and twentieth
to Delaiah, the four and twentieth to Maaziah.
19 These were the orderings
of them in their service to come into the house of the LORD, according
to their manner, under Aaron their father, as the LORD God of Israel had
commanded him.
Do
you realize that if we only knew when John the Baptist was conceived
we
would know when Christ was conceived
and
thus WHEN JESUS WAS BORN!
And
guess what?
WE
DO!
Please log unto and read #1072 to learn how the "Course of Abia" tells us.
To study the Bible is the noblest of all pursuits;
to understand it, the highest of all goals.
We pray that with the guidance of the Holy
Spirit, you accomplish both.
