Psalm 90:11
King James Version
11 Who knoweth the power of thine anger?
even according to thy fear,
so is thy wrath.
What's three-and-a-half years?
That's a total of 42 months.
Also, 1,290 days.
What has Bible prophecy got to do with it?
Surely, it's of great significance.
These intriguing verses came up.
Daniel 7:25
King James Version
25 And he shall speak great words against the most High,
and shall wear out the saints of the most High,
and think to change times and laws:
and they shall be given into his hand
until a time and times
and the dividing of time*.
Daniel 12:7
King James Version
7 And I heard the man clothed in linen,
which was upon the waters of the river,
when he held up his right hand and his left hand
unto heaven,
and sware by him that liveth for ever
that it shall be for a time, times, and an half;
and when he shall have accomplished
to scatter the power of the holy people,
all these things shall be finished.
Daniel 12:11
King James Version
11 And from the time that the daily sacrifice
shall be taken away,
and the abomination that maketh desolate set up,
there shall be a thousand two hundred and ninety days.
Luke 4:25
King James Version
25 But I tell you of a truth,
many widows were in Israel in the days of Elias,
when the heaven was shut up three years and six months,
when great famine was throughout all the land;
James 5:17
King James Version
17 Elias was a man subject to like passions as we are,
and he prayed earnestly that it might not rain:
and it rained not on the earth
by the space of three years and six months.
Revelation 11:2
King James Version
2 But the court which is without the temple
leave out, and measure it not;
for it is given unto the Gentiles:
and the holy city shall they tread under foot
forty and two months.
Revelation 11:3
King James Version
3 And I will give power unto my two witnesses,
and they shall prophesy
a thousand two hundred and threescore days,
clothed in sackcloth.
Revelation 12:14
King James Version
14 And to the woman were given two wings of a great eagle,
that she might fly into the wilderness,
into her place, where she is nourished
for a time, and times, and half a time,
from the face of the serpent.
Revelation 13:5
King James Version
5 And there was given unto him a mouth
speaking great things and blasphemies;
and power was given unto him
to continue forty and two months.
The chapters from these verses deserve deeper study.
As they say, "we've barely scratched the surface".
Scripture has really much to say about GOD's love, power, and wrath.
All have been prophesied.
We all need to look into it.
In addition, Ed. F. Vallowe's "Keys to Scripture Numerics" declares the number 42 as "ISRAEL's OPPRESSION" and the "LORD'S ADVENT".
The "advent" would be CHRIST's second coming.
*NOTE: "a time and times and the dividing of time" means:
Daniel 7:25
International Children’s Bible
25 This king will say things against the Most High God.
And he will hurt and kill God’s people.
He will try to change times and laws
that have already been set.
The people that belong to God
will be in that king’s power
for three and one-half years.
