"70 weeks Daniel Part 1"


 

                                      Prophet Daniel's 70 weeks---Daniel 9:24-27
24 “Seventy weeks are decreed concerning your people and your holy city, to finish the transgression, to put an end to sin, and to atone for iniquity, to bring in everlasting righteousness, to seal both vision and prophet, and to anoint a most holy place.[c] 25 Know therefore and understand that from the going forth of the word to restore and build Jerusalem to the coming of an anointed one, a prince, there shall be seven weeks. Then for sixty-two weeks it shall be built again with squares and moat, but in a troubled time. 26 And after the sixty-two weeks, an anointed one shall be cut off, and shall have nothing; and the people of the prince who is to come shall destroy the city and the sanctuary. Its[d] end shall come with a flood, and to the end there shall be war; desolations are decreed. 27 And he shall make a strong covenant with many for one week; and for half of the week he shall cause sacrifice and offering to cease; and upon the wing of abominations shall come one who makes desolate, until the decreed end is poured out on the desolator.”

     The prophecy is divided into three parts, 7 weeks, 62 weeks and 1 week.
     Unfortunate that many try to combine the 7 weeks and 62 weeks into one understanding that the the Lord appeared at the end of 69 weeks or 483 years.

Keep in mind that a week may be the number 7 or something that refers to 7.

    In the times of Yeshua/Jesus, even tho the Romans were in their land Israel was well endowed and prospered. They had Jerusalem and the Temple. They ate and drank, married and given in marriage, planted and harvested, bought and sold and had unhinged travel in the Roman Empire. It was a good time to be living in Israel when Jesus walked the earth, unlike the current events which Daniel said the 62 weeks would be in a troubled time.

     As a Passover was approaching Jesus got into a dicussion with the Pharisees and they said it has taken us 46 years to build this temple.
     46 years plus 3 years of ministry equals 49 years or 7 weeks. At the end of of those 49 years the annointed one was crucified. And that day was a friday or 6th day of the week. Going back to creation the Lord said it was good or very good meaning just as it was designed. Another way of saying this, it was a time of no sin. The sixth day when Adam was made was the original Passover and became the revolution of the year. When Adam and Eve sinned they covered themselves with fig leaves which wasnt good enought for the Lord. He required a blood sacrifice which carried up to the New Covenant.
     The lord was exactly on time.

     Malachi 4:2 2 But for you who fear my name the sun of righteousness shall rise, with healing in its wings. You shall go forth leaping like calves from the stall.
     The Lord was speaking of a resurrection and the timing was the 4th day of creation ( 4000 years ). That moment between the 4th and 5th day leaving 2000 years. Lord described a calf which was born and how they are happy to be born. If you missed it, see the word sun and not son.
