Daniel,

Good try at playing the numbers game to have the figures conform to your interpretation of prophecy.

Your statement in point eight indicates that those who do not agree with your theory are guilty of fudging the data, rearranging history as given us from secular sources and introducing foreign concepts to the biblical calendar.

In other words you would have us throw out any and all information that does not agree with your conclusions.

I will just point out one fact that casts serious doubts as to the reliability of your prophetic scenario.

Ezra did not arrive in Jerusalem in 397 B.C.E. as you would have it. The correct year would be 457 B.C.E.

Maybe if you did a little more rearranging you could make the numbers fit the new date. You seem pretty good at it.
