Why Tribulation May End in 2032
This page is directly connected to the reasons I provide for why 2025 appears to be the most likely candidate for the beginning of the Tribulation Period.
Immediately Prior To The 7th Millennial Day
Stated plainly, it is my belief that the Bible communicates an intended overarching timeline of 7,000 years (7 millennial days) which I cover in depth on my Millennial Days page. I believe that the 7th millennial day is the literal 1,000 year millennial reign of Jesus Christ on Earth mentioned in Revelation 20. In studying the end times prophecy, you'll find that the millennial reign follows the seven year tribulation period and the second coming of Jesus. Therefore, the tribulation period would be the seven years leading up to the millennial reign. If the millennial day/millennial week theory of seven thousand years from creation to the end of the millennial reign is correct, then we should expect the millennial reign of Jesus to occur around 2000 years from His crucifixion. While the specific year is debated, all scholars agree the crucifixion occurred in the spring of one of the year between 30 and 33 AD. Two thousand years from that event would be the years 2030 - 2033 AD. Subtracting the seven year tribulation period from those years results in 2024-2027 (note that this counting is inclusive of the start year as part of the 7 years). So, we get a range of time of which we are in the middle of to be watching for the tribulation to begin. I cover in my 7 year tribulation page that the period will be associated with a seven year peace agreement, which has potential to begin with the work the UN is currently doing in regard to the middle east, or in association with the Abrahamic Accords that Donald Trump is facilitating.
The Prophetic Psalms
I cover the prophetic Psalms pattern in greater depth on the Prophetic Psalms Page Here, but the summary of this is that there are multiple sets of chapters in the book of Psalms that appear to me to thematically align with the chain of major prophetic themes and events for the Tribulation period while also appearing to potentially coincide numerically to the Gregorian years of 2024-2033. The relevant portion here are:
- Psalm 132 (2032): A mention to remember the promises made to David (establish David's lineage forever). Speaks of one sitting on the throne of David, and God's priests adorned in righteousness aligning with the initial establishment of the Millennial Kingdom and description of those who accompany Jesus in His second coming. This confirmed by the "horn of David spring forth there" referring to Jerusalem.
- Psalm 83 (Age of Israel): A call for God to deal with His enemies. This aligns with what Jesus will accomplish at His Second Coming.
- Psalm 133 (2033): Speaks of unity and life forever, which aligns perfectly for what the Millennial Kingdom would usher in.
- Psalm 84 (Age of Israel): Speaks of entering into the dwelling place of God, one sitting on the throne of David, and God's priests adorned in righteousness aligning with the initial establishment of the Millennial Kingdom and description of those who accompany Jesus in His second coming.
- Psalm 134 (2034): Speaks of the servants in the house of the Lord.
- Psalm 85 (Age of Israel): Speak of peace and blessing and restoration, which aligns perfectly for what the Millennial Kingdom would usher in.
It's worth noting that there are similar patterns to be found in Isaiah 54-62, Psalm 38-48, the numerical values of the years and associated words found in the Strong's concordance, as well as numerological translations (standard and prime factors) of the years. So far, I've found 12 different methodologies that all yield the same thematic pattern and have an association to the numbers of the years in question.
Lunar Eclipse Tetrad in 2032-2033
In 2032-2033, there will be a lunar eclipse tetrad. This is a celestial event that is semi-rare and occurs when the moon passes through the shadow of the Earth centered enough to produce a total lunar eclipse four times in a row without any partial lunar eclipses in between. This happens on average around 3 times per century, but occurs more sporadically. For example, there are 8 occurrences in the 21st century, but there were 5 in the 20th century and 0 in the 19th century. What makes the tetrad in 2032-2033 particularly interesting is that the dates NASA calculates the eclipses will occur on appear to may align with significant Jewish events and feasts — depending on the methodology of how one calculates the dates. This tetrad also appears significant because it falls exactly in the range necessary to be 2000 years from the crucifixion of Jesus Christ. And, finally, the first lunar tetrad of the 20th century occurred in 1948-1949 when Israel became a nation again and these eclipses all fell on Jewish feast dates found in Leviticus 23. The fourth and final lunar eclipse of the set will occur over Europe, Africa, Western Asia, and the Middle East.
No Hanukkah in 3031, 2 Hanukkahs in 3032
3000 years from the crucifixion — 2 millennial days of the church age, and 1 millennial day for the 1000 year reign of Jesus Christ — will culminate in the year 3031 having no Hanukkah and 3032 having 2 Hanukkahs (Jan 1-8, 3032 & Dec 3032). This is because of the way the Gregorian calendar overlaps with the Jewish calendar. It is the only occurence of this in history due to the Gregorian calendar being less than 2000 years old.
