"'AT THE END OF' THE 69th WEEK OR "AFTER" THE END OF THE 69th WEEK ?"


WAS JESUS  "CUT OFF" AT THE END OF THE 69th WEEK OF DANIEL OR "AFTER" THE END OF THE 69th WEEK OF DANIEL ?

Daniel 9:26 states,  "AFTER three score and two weeks shall Messiah be cut off"

The question is : How long  AFTER the 69th week of Daniel was Messiah cut off ? Was it  AT THE END OF the 69th week thus leaving the entire 70th week left to be fulfilled , OR  was it   AFTER THE END  OF the 69th week which would then mean that Messiah was "cut off" sometime during the week following the 69th week ,  ie. the 70th week ?

The phrase , "AT THE END OF" is used a total of twenty-eight ( 28 ) times in ALL of the Scriptures. Of those  ( 28 ) times Daniel  used it  IN THE BOOK OF DANIEL FIVE ( 5 ) TIMES. Yes, that's right, no less than five ( 5 ) times.  Daniel DID  NOT use the phrase AT THE END OF  in Daniel 9:26 because he DID NOT  want to convey that Jesus was "cut off" AT THE  END OF the 69th week. 

SO, THERE YOU HAVE  IT: 

Daniel 9:25 tells us that Jesus was cut off "AFTER" the 69th week  , and Daniel 9:27 tells us HOW LONG "AFTER" the 69th week that Jesus was  cut off which was "in the midst of the week" following the 69th week , ie. the 70th week of Daniel. 

According to Your Holy Word , come Lord Jesus !
