Since Jesus had been born in the "sixth hour", or halfway through a day (or, five hundred years into an Age), and since five kingdoms (five thousand years) had already fallen according to Revelation, plus the half day of Jesus (the body of Jesus replacing the Ark of the Jews), it meant that five-thousand five-hundred years had already passed when Jesus was born and another 500 years would mark the end of the world.
Eftersom Jesus var blevet født i "den sjette time", eller halvvejs gennem en dag (eller 500 år inde i en alder), og eftersom fem kongedømmer (5.000 år) allerede var faldet ifølge Johannes' Åbenbaring, måtte der være gået 5.500 år mellem Adams skabelse og Jesu fødsel.
