Eschatological passage of Psalm 100 =Millennium

Eschatological Passages of Psalms 100 (Millennium)

Solomon's Temple was built over a period of 7 years (completion), plus the preparation took a period of ten years (a complete and perfect number. It signifies testimony, law, responsibility and the completeness of order) so we have a total of 17 years (overcoming the enemy and complete victory). www.biblestudy.org/bibleref/meaning-of-numbers-in-bible/17.html

The story of this building can be read beginning with I Kings 6 and 2 Chronicles 3. It began in approximately 990 BCE in preparation. Upon completion of the Temple in the fall of 972 BCE as recorded in I Kings 6:14, the Scripture says, “So Solomon built the house, and finished it.” With the finishing of this temple, there was great relief for a job well done and happiness and joy for a man who had accomplished what he set out to accomplish for the Lord. My, how we need to see this type of thing today in us for the Lord. There is no feeling like the feeling of knowing you have done what God has called you to do and you have completed the task. (Psalms 127-128). Psalms 128 speaks of the blessings of a man who respects and obeys God.

982 BC Sabbath Year (Shemitah)
982 BCE The United Monarchy split into two rival kingdoms: Israel in the north and Judah in the south. 1 Kings 12
2929 980 BCE King Solomon begins building Temple "And it came to be, in the four hundred and eightieth year after the children of Israel had come out of the land of Mitsrayim, in the fourth year of the reign of Solomon over Israel, in the month of Ziw, which is the second month, that he began to build the House of יהוה." I Ki 6:1.;Absalom Recalled 2 Samuel 14:21.
979 BC Psalms of David Psalms 2 - 145 (Assorted); Psalms of Korah Psalms 42 - 44, 84, 85, 87, 88; Psalms of Asaph Psalm 50, 73, 75 - 78, 80 - 83, 89; Psalms of Unknown Authors Psalms 1 - 150 (Assorted); David Forces a Census 1 Chronicles 21; Preparation for building the Temple 1 Chronicles 22; Preparation of Priesthood 1 Chronicles 23; Divisions of Levites 1 Chronicles 24; Preparation of sanctuary singers 1 Chronicles 25; Preparation of gatekeepers, treasurers 1 Chronicles 26; Preparation of government 1 Chronicles 27
2950 976 59th Jubilee (yovel יובל) Absalom's Conspiracy 2 Samuel 15; David Flees Jerusalem 2 Samuel 15:13
975 Sabbath Year (Shemitah)
972 BCE,960 9th Jubilee year (yovel יובל) Solomon chose the seventh month for the Temple Dedication "And in the eleventh year, in the month Bul/Cheshvan, which is the eighth month, was the house finished throughout all the parts thereof, and according to all the fashion of it. So was he seven years in building it" 1 Kings 6:38

    We continue forward now 3 years to the completion of the temple including furnishings and the dedication of it. This would occur in October 14 in 972 BCE (Rosh Chodesh 8). The story is told in I Kings 8:1-11 and II Chronicles 5:2-14. At this time all the furnishings were completed and the cloud of glory of the Lord filled the House of the Lord. The priest could not minister because of the cloud that filled the temple. At this time there was a great expression of joy and thanksgiving from Solomon (Psalms 115, 118 (2018/5778), 136, and 143).
   As Solomon continued his address and prayer of dedication with all of the furniture completed and the final building phase of the Temple now fully complete, there was a great time of sacrifice and public festivities. In October of 972 BCE, the ninth Jubilee year from the Crossing of the Jordan in 1401-1406 BCE, the temple was completed and there was great merry-making because of this completion. In I Kings 8:62-66, we find that on the 8th day, Solomon sent the people away. They blessed the king and went in to their own tents joyful and glad of hear for the goodness that God had given to them and to David the servant of the Lord. With these reflections, Solomon then writes Psalms 99 and 100.

Yeshua/Jesus will be building His Messianic Temple at the same location as Solomon's Temple and He will be dedicating it at Chanukkah (Haggai 2, 9th month and 24th day) somewhere between 5778 and 5780 (2018-2020). It can be dedicated in a year of Jubilee.
His Steadfast Love Endures Forever
Psa 100:1 A Psalm/mizmor of praise. Make a joyful noise unto the LORD/Jehovah, all ye lands (in the land of Israel).
Psa 100:2 Serve the LORD with gladness: come before his presence with singing.
Psa 100:3 Know ye that the LORD he is God (Hebrew. Elohim. The Hebrew accent places the chief pause on "God"; the minor pauses on "know" and "made": i.e. the knowledge of Jehovah as our God reveals to His People that He made them such, and that they are His "sheep" and His care): it is he that hath made us, and not we ourselves; we are his people, and the sheep of his pasture (Big Dipper/Little Dipper= Big sheepfold and little sheepfold).
People . . . sheep. Note the correspondence between Psalms 100 and 95
Psa 100:4 Enter into his gates with thanksgiving, and into his courts/temple with praise: be thankful unto him, and bless his name (Psa_20:1) .
This verse reminded me of the Millennium.
Psa 100:5 For the LORD is good/great (Psalm 95:3); his mercy (loving kindness/grace) is everlasting; and his truth endureth to all generations.

Let Us Sing Songs of Praise
Psa 95:1 O come, let us sing unto the LORD: let us make a joyful noise to the rock of our salvation.
Psa 95:2 Let us come before his presence with thanksgiving, and make a joyful noise unto him with psalms.
Psa 95:3 For the LORD is a great God, and a great King above all gods.
Psa 95:4 In his hand are the deep places of the earth: the strength of the hills is his also.
Psa 95:5 The sea is his, and he made it: and his hands formed the dry land.
Psa 95:6 O come, let us worship and bow down: let us kneel before the LORD our maker.
Psa 95:7 For he is our God; and we are the people of his pasture, and the sheep of his hand. To day if ye will hear his voice,
Psa 95:8 Harden not your heart, as in the provocation, and as in the day of temptation in the wilderness:
Psa 95:9 When your fathers tempted me, proved me, and saw my work.
Psa 95:10 Forty years long was I grieved with this generation, and said, It is a people that do err in their heart, and they have not known my ways:
1947+30 = 1977 (age of maturity for Israel) +40 years = 2017 (5777 --rapture year). 1948+30 =1978 +40 years =2018 (5778) which is the year of the Second Coming.
Psa 95:11 Unto whom I sware in my wrath that they should not enter into my rest.
