Lost time is never found again

Mt. 2:1: Now when Jesus was born in Bethlehem of Judaea in the days of Herod the king, behold, there came wise men from the east to Jerusalem,



 2Saying, Where is he that is born King of the Jews? for we have seen his star in the east, and are come to worship him.



 3When Herod the king had heard these things, he was troubled, and all Jerusalem with him.



 4And when he had gathered all the chief priests and scribes of the people together, he demanded of them where Christ should be born.



 5And they said unto him, In Bethlehem of Judaea: for thus it is written by the prophet,



 6And thou Bethlehem, in the land of Juda, art not the least among the princes of Juda: for out of thee shall come a Governor, that shall rule my people Israel.



 7Then Herod, when he had privily called the wise men, enquired of them diligently what time the star appeared.



 8And he sent them to Bethlehem, and said, Go and search diligently for the young child; and when ye have found him, bring me word again, that I may come and worship him also.



 9When they had heard the king, they departed; and, lo, the star, which they saw in the east, went before them, till it came and stood over where the young child was.



 10When they saw the star, they rejoiced with exceeding great joy.



 11And when they were come into the house, they saw the young child with Mary his mother, and fell down, and worshipped him: and when they had opened their treasures, they presented unto him gifts; gold, and frankincense and myrrh.

Luke 12:54: And he said also to the people, When ye see a cloud rise out of the west, straightway ye say, There cometh a shower; and so it is.



 55And when ye see the south wind blow, ye say, There will be heat; and it cometh to pass.



 56Ye hypocrites, ye can discern the face of the sky and of the earth; but how is it that ye do not discern this time?



Luke 13:22: And he went through the cities and villages, teaching, and journeying toward Jerusalem.



 23Then said one unto him, Lord, are there few that be saved? And he said unto them,



 24Strive to enter in at the strait gate: for many, I say unto you, will seek to enter in, and shall not be able.



 25When once the master of the house is risen up, and hath shut to the door, and ye begin to stand without, and to knock at the door, saying, Lord, Lord, open unto us; and he shall answer and say unto you, I know you not whence ye are:



 26Then shall ye begin to say, We have eaten and drunk in thy presence, and thou hast taught in our streets.



 27But he shall say, I tell you, I know you not whence ye are; depart from me, all ye workers of iniquity.



Gen 7:1: And the LORD said unto Noah, Come thou and all thy house into the ark; for thee have I seen righteous before me in this generation.

And...

:16: And they that went in, went in male and female of all flesh, as God had commanded him: and the LORD shut him in.

Examples of those who met the timeline

Man at Pool of Bethesda

John 5:5: And a certain man was there, which had an infirmity thirty and eight years.

 6When Jesus saw him lie, and knew that he had been now a long time in that case, he saith unto him, Wilt thou be made whole?



 7The impotent man answered him, Sir, I have no man, when the water is troubled, to put me into the pool: but while I am coming, another steppeth down before me.



 8Jesus saith unto him, Rise, take up thy bed, and walk.



 9And immediately the man was made whole, and took up his bed, and walked: and on the same day was the sabbath.

The Two Blind Men

Mt.20:30:And, behold, two blind men sitting by the way side, when they heard that Jesus passed by, cried out, saying, Have mercy on us, O Lord, thou son of David.

 31And the multitude rebuked them, because they should hold their peace: but they cried the more, saying, Have mercy on us, O Lord, thou son of David.



 32And Jesus stood still, and called them, and said, What will ye that I shall do unto you?



 33They say unto him, Lord, that our eyes may be opened.



 34So Jesus had compassion on them, and touched their eyes: and immediately their eyes received sight, and they followed him.

Isa. 55:6: Seek ye the LORD while he may be found, call ye upon him while he is near:

This is what the blind men did, they called out, Jesus was near.

The Man with Leprosy

Luke 5:12: And it came to pass, when he was in a certain city, behold a man full of leprosy: who seeing Jesus fell on his face, and besought him, saying, Lord, if thou wilt, thou canst make me clean.

 13And he put forth his hand, and touched him, saying, I will: be thou clean. And immediately the leprosy departed from him.
