The 70 Week Ministry charts illustrate the chronological ministry of the Jewish Messiah named Yeshua who is commonly called Jesus.
The charts and studies below were created in Microsoft Word from Michael Rood’s Jonah Code video series. Michael makes a strong biblical, historical, and chronological case for a literal 70 week, 490 day ministry of the Judeo/Christian Jewish Messiah – Yeshua/Jesus.
The 70 Week Ministry, Jonah Code, and Calendar Contrast studies go together.

1260 Day (3.5 yr.) vs. 490 day (1.3 yr.) Ministry
The point to notice is that, according to this reckoning, the ministry of Yeshua follows the Hebrew Feast calendar found in Leviticus chapter 23 with no inserted time. In order for Christians to get a three and one half year ministry, they have to insert time by changing the biblical order of the feasts; thus interpreting “a feast of the Jews” to mean whatever works out in the end to be a 3 1/2 year ministry.
For example, John 5:1 states the following simple sentence in English in the King James version of the bible:
“After this there was a feast of the Jews; and Jesus went up to Jerusalem.” Jn. 5:1
The first point to clarify is, since this is the first verse of Chapter five, what does “After this” mean? After what?
It is referring to verse 54 in the previous chapter. This seems basic enough, but you must keep in mind that chapter divisions where not in the original manuscripts. They were added for study purposes in the 13th century by a man named Stephen Langton who divided the Bible into chapters in the year 1227 A.D. The first English New Testament to have both chapter and verse divisions was the Geneva Bible (1560). 1
This establishes a chronological sequence of events that goes all the way back to chapter two and verse 13. Here we are told:
“And the Jews’ passover was at hand, and Jesus went up to Jerusalem,” Jn. 2:13
The second point to consider is, why did the bible translators inserted the following wording as commentary in both Jn. 2:13 and Jn. 5:1?
“And the Jews’ Passsover …” Jn. 2:13
“… feast of the Jews …” Jn. 5:1
This was added for clarification. However, why would a Jew writing to Jews say this? Based on Leviticus 23 they all new what verse 1 stated:
Lev 23:2 “Speak unto the children of Israel, and say unto them, Concerning the feasts of the LORD [YHWH], which ye shall proclaim to be holy convocations, even these are my feasts. …”
Jews back in the time of Jesus well knew they were the feasts of Yehovah. Why did the church add this commentary, which was not in the original manuscripts? Also, who changed the name of God to LORD? The answer to these questions reveal some of the effects of Replacement Theology and why most Christians do not observer the Feasts of Yehovah. 2
Actually the plot thickens. Consider what is revealed in The Open bible – It is Written Heritage Edition, 1975, by Thomas Nelson Publishers.
Footnote: 1. Langton was a professor at the University of Paris and later he became the Archbishop of Canterbury. A French printer named Robert Stephanus (Stephens), divided the verses for his Greek New Testament which was published in 1551. The first entire Bible in which chapter and verse divisions were used was Stephen’s edition of the Latin Vulgate (1555). See blueletterbible.org .
Footnote: 2. The letter “J” did not exist in the English language until after the original King James bible of 1611 was written. Therefore the names Jehovah and Jesus did not exist prior to this and cannot be found in the 1611 KJV bible.
