[BiblicalLiteralist]

A very interesting observation is made on book page 17, regarding Ishmael and Isaac and its reference in Galatians 4:21-31 regarding the slave woman and the free woman. The time between Ishmael and Isaac is counted as 14 years (Abraham's Age during each birth 86 & 100), as is the time between Mt. Sinai and the death of Messiah (approx 1,480 years). If you haven't counted this one in yet @PeteR you might have another arrow in the quiver here for intentional visible orchestration, similar to the opening and closing of wombs for Jacob.

So I downloaded the PDF and have been reading this and it reminded me of things I forgot about in Scripture and even raises some great questions and answers to ponder so thanks for sharing this.
