Seven weeks shalt thou number unto thee: begin to number the seven
weeks from such time as thou beginnest to put the sickle to the corn. And thou shalt
keep the feast of weeks unto the LORD thy God with a tribute of a freewill offering of thine hand,

Deuteronomy 5:40 (Spoke 5, Cycle 1)
Know therefore and understand, that from the going forth of the commandment
to restore and to build Jerusalem unto the Messiah the Prince shall be seven weeks,
and threescore and two weeks: the street shall be built again, and the wall, even in troublous times.
Daniel 9:25 (Spoke 5, Cycle 2)
God placed the phrase ("seven weeks") [Verify] in two and only two verses of the Holy Bible, quoted
above. We have a Spoke 5 KeyLink:

The Feast of Weeks is the Hebrew name for what is called Pentecost in the New Testament, so called
because it is celebrated on the 50th (5 x 10) Day after Passover.
It is the day after a "week of weeks", that is 7 x 7 = 49 days. The link between Deuteronomy
and Daniel based on the word

strong. Sixty percent of all occurrences of this root appear on Spoke 5, with the cc
between Cycles 1 and 2
attaining the astounding value of .85! (Remember, this coefficient should be near zero if
the thesis of the Wheel is false.) Here is the distribution:
The implications of this correlation are extremely intriguing. Daniel's prophecy concerning the "cutting off
of Messiah the Prince" amplifies the "week of weeks" from 49 days to 490 years,
predicting the date of Christ's crucifixion around 33 AD - one of the most astounding prophecies!
This is an example of the
self-similarity over scale that characterizes the structure of Scripture now being applied to history.
Fifty days after Christ crucifixion came the ultimate Pentecost when God poured out His Spirit
and His Mighty Power upon the
