Actually, The Lords Prophet Jeremiah was around 600BC time period; therefore it would around 2100 years from the 1500s AD and more currently around 2600 years ago from our days and times.... and to think Ray Stephens was able to insert this into a lyric of one of his songs.

Sorry, John Heywood was paraphrasing Jeremiah Chapter 5: verse 21, written over 1500 years earlier.
