Isaiah 46

9Remember the former things of old: for I am Elohim, and there is none else; I am Elohim, and there is none like me,

10Declaring the end from the beginning, and from ancient times the things that are not yet done, saying, My counsel shall stand, and I will do all my pleasure.

It is the glory of Elohim to conceal a thing: but the honor of kings is to search out a matter.

Daniel 12

9And He said, Go thy way, Daniel: for the words are closed up and sealed till the time of the end.

10Many shall be purified, and made white, and tried; but the wicked shall do wickedly: and none of the wicked shall understand; but the wise shall understand.

Daniel 2

20Daniel answered and said, Blessed be the name of Elohim forever and ever: for wisdom and might are his:

21And he changes the times and the seasons: he removes kings, and sets up kings: he gives wisdom unto the wise, and knowledge to them that know understanding:

22He reveals the deep and secret things: he knows what is in the darkness, and the light dwells with him.

The fear of the Yahweh is the beginning of wisdom: a good understanding have all they that do his commandments: his praise endures forever.

Some important dates in history:

Creation 3991 B.C.E.

Enoch translated to heaven 3004 B.C.E.

Noah’s Flood 2335 B.C.E.

Tower of Babel 2234 B.C.E.

Exodus 1483 B.C.E.

Solomon starts Temple 1004 B.C.E.

Nebuchadnezar Burns Temple 586 B.C.E.

Year 6000 = 2010 C.E.

Biblical chronology records that  Enoch was translated to heaven in 3004 B.C.E.

The ancient Sanskrit writings of the Hindus in India record that Krishna ascended to heaven in 3102 B.C.E.

The ancient Mayans start their calendar in 3114 B.C.E.  This is just 12 years from the year that the Hindus have Krishna ascend to heaven.

Biblical chronology records that  Enoch was translated to heaven in 3004 B.C.E.

The ancient Chinese date the Great Flood to 2357BCE during the time of Yao.

Lieh  Zi, a Taoist who lived in the 5th century BCE; tells of an ancient Chinese  legend of one named Nuwa who repaired the heavens after a great flood.

Biblical chronology has Noah’s Flood at 2335 B.C.E.

Alexander the Great captured Babylon in 331 B.C.E.

The Chaldean priests showed Alexander all their astronomical records going back to the founding of Babylon.

The records went back 1903 years.

331 B.C.E. + 1903 years = 2234 B.C.E. for the founding of Babylon.

Biblical chronology  records the Tower of Babel in 2234 B.C.E.(The Exact Date)

Rome conquered King Philip of Macedonia in 197 B.C.E.

Ancient Roman historians record that from the time of Ninus (Nimrod) until King Philip conquered was 1995 years.

197 B.C.E. + 1995 years = 2192 B.C.E.

Nimrod co-reigned 62 years with his father Cush.

2192 B.C.E. + 62 years = 2254 B.C.E.

Biblical chronology has the Tower of Babel 2234 B.C.E.

The ancient Chinese record that their first king Shun (Nimrod) was the son of Cush.  They record the start of his reign as 2254 B.C.E.

Biblical chronology records the tower of babel as  2234 B.C.E.

Biblical chronology records the Year 6000 as the year 2010 C.E.-2011C.E.

The ancient Mayans record that the current age of this world ends in 2012 C.E.

Therefore since the last Mayan year ends on December 21, 2012C.E., then this means it began on December 21, 2011C.E.(2011-2012 is the year 6001 on the Biblical calendar)

Therefore, we can conclude that the Mayans were trying to predict the beginning of the 7th millenium when the Messiah would return and set-up his kingdom here on Earth.
