Waiting for Jehovah -
a Sport for the patient!

*** jv 133 10 Growing in Accurate Knowledge of the Truth ***


This was influenced by the belief that the seventh millennium of human history had begun in 1873 and that a period of divine disfavor (of equal length to a former period considered to be one of favor) upon natural Israel would end in 1878. The chronology was flawed because of relying on an inaccurate rendering of Acts 13:20 in the King James Version, belief that there was a transcription error at 1 Kings 6:1, and failure to take into account Biblical synchronisms in the dating of reigns of the kings of Judah and of Israel. A clearer understanding of Biblical chronology was published in 1943, in the book “The Truth Shall Make You Free,” and it was then refined the following year in the book “The Kingdom Is at Hand,” as well as in later publications.

So - the Watchtower and therefore Jehovah - promoted a false prophecy untill 1943! Russell and Rutherford both believed this untill they died - and it pleased Jehovah to keep them in the darkness - according to the "Proclaimers" book :)))
