The evidentiary standards and interpretive assumptions behind the Wheel of Ages.

A TRANSPARENT FRAMEWORK

What the sources establish—and what the synthesis proposes.

This page distinguishes the biblical text and externally verifiable history from the chronological and typological framework used to arrange them.

01

Bible Translation

The King James Version (KJV) is the primary translation used for direct biblical quotations. Capitalization and punctuation may be lightly standardized for readability. Explanatory card text and event summaries are paraphrases rather than direct quotations unless quotation marks and a reference indicate otherwise.

Other translations may be compared where an English rendering affects the discussion, but the interpretive argument is intended to rest upon the biblical text rather than a distinctive wording found in only one translation.

02

Chronological Assumptions

The Wheel uses a continuous chronology with no year zero. Its internal framework places the Fall of Man in 3971 BC, begins the first post-Fall Jubilee in 3921 BC, and places the death, burial, and resurrection of Jesus in AD 30.

The day–millennium correspondence is a typological premise informed by Psalm 90:4 and 2 Peter 3:8; those passages do not independently establish a complete chronology. The proposed AD 2030 marker is presented as an interpretive possibility, not a prediction or a date revealed explicitly by Scripture.

03

Hebrew Lexicons Consulted

Name meanings and Hebrew word studies are checked against Brown–Driver–Briggs, Strong’s Exhaustive Concordance, Gesenius’ Hebrew-Chaldee Lexicon, and, where available, the Hebrew and Aramaic Lexicon of the Old Testament (HALOT).

Etymologies are distinguished from contextual meanings. When a proposed name meaning is uncertain, debated, or based on a possible wordplay rather than a settled derivation, it should be read as interpretive rather than definitive.

04

Historical Sources

Historical events are supported, where applicable, by biblical references and reputable institutional or scholarly sources. These include museum collections and inscriptions, national archives, university and reference works, and specialist institutions such as the British Museum, Israel Museum, United States Holocaust Memorial Museum, NASA, CERN, NOAA, the U.S. National Archives, and Encyclopaedia Britannica.

A historical source may support the occurrence or dating of an event without validating the theological interpretation assigned to it by the Wheel.

05

Principles for Identifying Chiasms

A proposed chiasm is evaluated by repeated vocabulary, corresponding images, thematic parallels, inverse sequence, clear literary boundaries, and a meaningful central pivot. Strong correspondences should be traceable in the text on both sides of the center.

Similarity alone is not sufficient. The method favors sustained order across the whole structure, avoids rearranging passages merely to create symmetry, and marks proposed correspondences as interpretation rather than as an explicit outline supplied by the biblical author.

06

Tradition and Original Synthesis

Traditional interpretation includes widely recognized features such as the seven churches, seals, trumpets, bowls, the Creation week, the Tabernacle, Israel’s appointed feasts, and established Christian typological readings centered in Jesus Christ.

Original synthesis refers to the Wheel of Ages framework itself: its Divine Day chronology, its alignment of Creation, history, Tabernacle, Feasts, Passion Week, Jubilee, and Revelation, its forty-nine chiastic pairs and fiftieth Jubilee correspondence, and its proposed placement of particular events within that framework.

The site invites readers to test every synthesis against Scripture and the cited historical evidence. A visual or thematic correspondence is not presented as proof of divine inspiration for the model.
