I was hoping the 80 year max-length generation corresponded to Matthew 24 and Israel's re-birth in 1948, but I'm now convinced the time revealed is 2k years from when  Messiah was "cut off". 

A day is as a thousand years and a thousand years is as a day is key. 

“Come, let us return to the Lord. He has torn us to pieces, but he will heal us; he has injured us but he will bind up our wounds. After two days he will revive us; on the third day he will restore us,that we may live in his presence."  Hosea 6:1,2

Another clue seems to be the following:

“And be ready against the third day: for the third day the LORD will come down in the sight of all the people upon mount Sinai.” Exodus 19:11

The transfiguration was a preview of the rapture as well. Notice the "After 6 days" or 6k years:

After six days Jesus took Peter, James and John with him and led them up a high mountain, where they were all alone. There he was transfigured before them. 3 His clothes became dazzling white, whiter than anyone in the world could bleach them. 4 And there appeared before them Elijah and Moses, who were talking with Jesus. Mark 9:2-4

In the Feast of Unleavened Bread, the bread is broken into 3 pieces, with the middle piece striped and pierced, hidden away, and then found amid great joy. This correlates to Jesus coming at the end of the 2k years of the Jews (With Daniel's 70th week or Time of Jacob's Trouble still remaining) and then the 2k year church age began when He was "cut off". 

The story of Jesus reviving Lazarus "after 4 days" for the glory of God is a picture of the Jews being brought back to life after 4k years when they find their true Messiah Jesus.  It's also 4k years from Creation that Jesus came the first time.

When he heard this, Jesus said, “This sickness will not end in death. No, it is for God’s glory so that God’s Son may be glorified through it.” 5Now Jesus loved Martha and her sister and Lazarus. 6So when he heard that Lazarus was sick, he stayed where he was two more days, 7and then he said to his disciples, “Let us go back to Judea.” John 11:4 

Jesus, once more deeply moved, came to the tomb. It was a cave with a stone laid across the entrance. 39“Take away the stone,” he said “But, Lord,” said Martha, the sister of the dead man, “by this time there is a bad odor, for he has been there four days. Then Jesus said, “Did I not tell you that if you believe, you will see the glory of God?” John 11:39,40

To find out the year of Christ's crucifixion, the astronomical event of the land being dark from the 6th to the 9th hour is very rare. Maximum length of an eclipse is 8 minutes. It had to have been something supernatural. The Chinese people recorded an event in 31 AD where the land went dark--3 hour time difference from Israel I believe--but recording the fact that the sins of the world have fallen on one man at the same time is pretty amazing:

In the day of Gui Hai, the last day of the month, there was a solar eclipse, [The emperor] avoided the Throne Room, suspended all military activities, and did not handle official business for five days. And he proclaimed, ‘My poor character has caused this calamity, that the sun and the moon were veiled, I am fearful and trembling. What can I say?… Anyone who presents a memorial is not allowed to mention the word ‘holy’”.

“Another entry made a short time later, referring to the same eclipse, said:

Summer, fourth month [of the year], on the day of Ren Wu, the imperial edict reads, ‘Yin and Yang have mistakenly switched, and the sun and the moon were eclipsed. The sins of all the people are now on one man. [The emperor] proclaims pardon to all under heaven.’

This solar eclipse was recorded in the Record of the Latter Han Dynasty, Gui Han was the last day of the third month in the spring, during the 7th year of Han Emperor Guang Wu (reigned A.D. 25 – 57). That corresponds to A.D. 31, which means that this major eclipse happened 34 years after the astral events involving the magi! “[At the time of Christ’s birth]

“Even more incredibly, a commentary in the Record of the Latter Han Dynasty, said simply,

‘Eclipse on the day of Gui Hai, Man from heaven died.’

So adding 2k years to 31 ad is 2031. The rapture of the church is the next feast to be fulfilled and fits perfectly if it were to happen this year 2021. The feast is 2 days, "no one knows the day or hour", followed by a week of years simultaneously being the bridal week for the church and Daniel's 70th week, followed by the Second Coming. After the rapture, the world will undoubtedly be in chaos for a short period of time, the antichrist will arise, then the 7 year confirmation of the covenant will begin the 7 year period.

The 10 days of awe from Trumpets to Rosh Hashanah could be marked by the period from 2021-2031. Jesus also says to the church of Smyrna, "The devil is about to throw some of you into prison 10 days"

There seems to be a parallel between Laban and Jacob as types of the rapture. Jacob first loved Rachel, symbolic of Jesus being the Messiah of the Jews, but after 7 years of labor, Laban says he must marry Leah, but can have Rachel if he works another 7 years. Joseph having the dream of 7 years of plenty followed by the 7 year famine seems to correlate to this past 7 years compared to the very difficult 7 years of Jacob's Trouble. 

If 9/11/01 was some kind of marker or sign, this September will be 20 years from that event. Jacob was at Laban's fror a total of 20 years.

2017 to 2031 is 14 years in length too. 2017 could coincide to the prophecy of the Jubilees. 1897, 1917, 1967, and 2017 could be importatnt markers as well.

The puzzle pieces are coming together! Definite high watch time!
