 Conte, The Bible and the Future of the World, . In this book, I give the date 
of 
A.D.
 2437 as the last year of the Antichrist's reign and I state that Antichrist is destroyed at the end of his 
reign by the coming of Jesus Christ. Therefore, the reader can conclude that the Return of Jesus Christ will 
occur in 
A.D.
 2437, (though I neglected to say so outright).

 Apocryphal literature claims that the virgins were dismissed so as not to defile the Temple once they 
reached menarche.  Proto evangelium of James, 8.2,  Wesley Center for Applied Theology, Non canonical 
Homepage, . Though this comes from a non 
canonical source, the statement accords with Jewish belief and custom concerning ritual cleanliness and the 
Temple. If so, then Anna might not have been admitted to service of the Temple until she reached menopause, 
about the age of 49 years. Thus, we cannot be certain as to when she returned to the service of the Temple.

 Apocryphal literature claims that the virgins were dismissed so as not to defile the Temple once they 
reached menarche. Proto evangelium of James, 8.2.  
    In modern times, the average age of menarche has decreased to between 12 and 13 years of age. See Merck 
Manual of Diagnosis and Therapy, Section 18, Chapter 234,  Puberty,  and Figure 234 3, 
. See also: U.S. Centers for 
Disease Control, National Center for Health Statistics,  Vital and Health Statistics; Series 11, No. 133, 
, p. 3.  
     As late as the eighteenth century, the average age of menarche was about 17 years of age. See: Cornell 
University, Science News,  New  Rituals  Of Menarche May Not Be Preparing Girls For Emerging Sexuality, 
Cornell Scholar Argues,  . This article 
cites: Joan Jacobs Brumberg,  Something Happens to Girls: Menarche and the Emergence of the Modern 
American Hygienic Imperative,  Journal of the History of Sexuality,  1993, Vol. 4. 
    In ancient times, if 17 years was the average, then 14 years was approximately the time when some 
percentage of girls in any group would reach menarche; hence the need to dismiss the Temple virgins at that 
age, (before any of the girls might defile the Temple). 
    Note that the Virgin Mary never had menarche. Conte, the Virginity of Jesus and Mary, PDF ebooklet, p. 10; 
printed booklet, p. 14, .
