	The Significance of 70 Years
		Even through Jehoiachin was not in office and was not transported to Babylon until the year 597-596 BCE (at the epoch of a 70th year--as cited) it may have been that the author of Ezekiel reckoned the year of Jehoiachin's captivity' as coinciding with the time of the initial Babylonian conquest of Judea.
		It is of special significance that the year 37 BCE (the year when King Herod ascended to the throne of Jerusalem) is indicated to have been the year of a conjunction of both cycles--of 70 years and of 49 years.
		Based upon the almost certain determination of the year 37-36 BCE (as being the 490th year of the Angelic prophecy), it becomes very easy to go ahead and recognize that the anointing of a prince (Messiah) was to come in the year 26-27 CE (or perhaps in the year just after).
