Several Prophets of the Old Testament prophesied about 70 Leaders / Shepherd’s over a time period of 70 weeks of 7 Years per week
After the Rule of the 70th Shepherds/ ruler the Prophesied Jewish Messiah will arrive
Enoch, Daniel and Ezekiel prophesy explained
Eze 34:2 Son of man, prophesy against the shepherds of Israel, prophesy, and say unto them, Thus saith the Lord GOD unto the shepherds; Woe be to the shepherds of Israel that do feed themselves! should not the shepherds feed the flocks?
Dan 9:24 Seventy weeks are determined upon thy people and upon thy holy city, to finish the transgression, and to make an end of sins, and to make reconciliation for iniquity, and to bring in everlasting righteousness, and to seal up the vision and prophecy, and to anoint the most Holy.
Dan 9:25 Know therefore and understand, that from the going forth of the commandment to restore and to build Jerusalem unto the Messiah the Prince shall be seven weeks, and threescore and two weeks: the street shall be built again, and the wall, even in troublous times.
Dan 9:26 And after threescore and two weeks shall Messiah be cut off, but not for himself: and the people of the prince that shall come shall destroy the city and the sanctuary; and the end thereof shall be with a flood, and unto the end of the war desolations are determined.
Dan 9:27 And he shall confirm the covenant with many for one week: and in the midst of the week he shall cause the sacrifice and the oblation to cease, and for the overspreading of abominations he shall make it desolate, even until the consummation, and that determined shall be poured upon the desolate.
Enoch 89:59 And He called seventy shepherds, and cast those sheep to them that they might pasture them,…”
Enoch prophesied there would be 70 shepherds to lead the Israelite’s and then the Coming of the Jewish Messiah .
JESUS CHRIST THE SON OF GOD COME AFTER THE LAST KING DURING THE ROMAN EMPIRE RULE . The Jews never saw Him as the Messiah . Now they will be mislead !
They are 35+23 = 58 (ancient time) +12 (end time) = 70
Enoch 90:1 And I saw till that in this manner thirty-five shepherds undertook the pasturing (of the sheep), and they severally completed their periods as did the first;
Enoch 90:5 And I saw until that twenty-three had undertaken the pasturing and completed in their several periods fifty-eight times.
Who are these 35+23 = 58 ancient shepherds:
15 Judges and 35 Kings will Lead ancient Israel and the exile then 12 End time Rulers totaling 70 Sheppard’s

** Until Saul made king (1 Sam 2:18-4:1)(1 Sam 7:2-8:1)
*It is questionable whether Abimelech should count as a judge.
We find in (1 Sam 8:1-2) that Samuel made his two sons (Joel and Abijah) judges when he became old, but this appears to have been very short-lived as they were corrupt. The Israelites demanded that Samuel appoint them a king instead (1 Sam 8:3-22), which God told Samuel to do. Samuel anointed Saul to be the first king, and from that point forward, kings ruled Israel in place of judges. All of these judges are found in the book of Judges except for Eli and Samuel, who are found in 1st Samuel. Barak, Gideon, Jephthah, Samson, and Samuel are mentioned in (Heb 11:32) as “Heroes Of The Faith.”
*** Bonus Trivia: The “Spirit of the Lord” is said to have come upon 4 of these judges: Othniel (Judg 3:10), Gideon (Judg 6:34), Jephthah (Judg 11:29), and Samson (Judg 13:25)(Judg 14:6,19)(Judg 15:14).
Kings of the United Kingdom of Israel and Judah
Kings of the Divided Kingdom of Israel and Judah
In the ninth year of Hosea’s reign, the king of Assyria took the Israelites from the Northern Kingdom captive and deported them to Assyria – End of the Kingdom of Israel.
In the eleventh year of Zedekiah’s reign, the king of Babylon took the Israelites from the Southern Kingdom captive and deported them to Babylon – End of the Kingdom of Judah.
In around 1020 B.C. the Israelite tribes reunited to form the United Kingdom of Israel and Judah when the prophet Samuel anointed Saul from the tribe of Benjamin as the first king.
Due to his disobedience to God, Saul’s reign was curtailed and his kingdom given to another dynasty. David from the tribe of Judah was chosen by God and anointed by the prophet Samuel as king.
Saul’s reign was characterized by constant conflict with Philistines, and then by civil war against forces loyal to David.
Saul’s heir, Ishbaal (a.k.a. Ishbosheth), took over rulership of Israel after the death of his father and three brothers but ruled for only two years before he was assassinated.
David, who had become king of the tribe of Judah only, was appointed King of Israel in Ishbaal’s place after his death reigning from c. 1000-961 B.C.
Solomon, David’s son and successor, maintained the unified monarchy, c. 961-922 B.C.
On the succession of Solomon’s son, Rehoboam, in c. 930 B.C., the country split into two kingdoms: the Kingdom of Israel (containing the ten northern tribes and including the cities of Shechem and Samaria) in the north and the Kingdom of Judah (containing Jerusalem) in the south.
The History of the Kings of Israel and Judah was characterized by their constant disobedience to God; only a handful of kings were faithful and whenever a disobedient king rose to power, he led the whole nation away from God and turned the people to idolatry.
The Kingdom of Israel (or Northern Kingdom, a.k.a. Samaria and Ephraim) existed as an independent state until c. 731 B.C. when it was conquered by the Assyrian Empire, while the Kingdom of Judah (or Southern Kingdom) existed as an independent state until c. 586 B.C. when it was conquered by the Babylonian Empire.
43 kings + 15 judges = 58
May be Moses is not included because he didn’t enter the land. And Joshua passed away after alloting the land to the 12 tribes.
AND THERE WILL BE TWELVE LAST SHEPHERDS which means until the end of times.
1 Enoch 90:19 ..he opened that book concerning the destruction which those TWELVE LAST SHEPHERDS had wrought”
AFTER THE LAST TWELVE SHEPHERDS RULE THAN COME THE LORD OF THE SHEEP TO RULE AT THE PLEASANT LAND : (ANTICHRIST)
Enoch 90:19 And I saw till a great sword was given to the sheep, and the sheep proceeded against all the beasts of the field to slay them, and all the beasts and the birds of the heaven fled before their face. And I saw that man, who wrote the book according to the command of the Lord, till he opened that book concerning the destruction which those twelve last shepherds had wrought, and showed that they had destroyed much more than their predecessors, before the Lord of the sheep. And I saw till the Lord of the sheep came unto them and took in His hand the staff of His wrath, and smote the earth, and the earth clave asunder, and all the beasts and all the birds of the heaven fell from among those sheep, and were swallowed up in the earth and it covered them. 20 And I saw till a throne was erected in the pleasant land, and the Lord of the sheep sat Himself thereon, and the other took the sealed books and opened those books before the Lord of the sheep.
