"Know therefore and understand,
That from the going forth of the command
To restore and build Jerusalem
Until Messiah the Prince,
There shall be seven weeks and sixty-two weeks;
The street shall be built again, and the wall,
Even in troublesome times"
As I see it. Likewise... Jesus is capital P and Antichrist is lower case p in verse 26. Just as it's He versus he.

The scriptures identify him as a Roman prince...
Daniel 9:26: "And after the sixty-two weeks
Messiah (Jesus) shall be cut off, but not for Himself;
And the people (Romans) of the prince who is to come
Shall destroy the city and the sanctuary...."
Yes, Messiah was cut off/crucified (fulfilled)
The Romans then destroyed the temple (fulfilled)
The future prince who is to come (not yet fulfilled) - it gives a clue by saying the people who destroyed the temple (Romans) are of the prince to come, so we know the future prince is someone from the revived Roman empire.
Continuing......
Daniel 9:27: "Then he (roman prince) shall confirm a covenant with many for one week (7 yrs);
But in the middle of the week (3.5 yrs)
he shall bring an end to sacrifice and offering (he will break the contract)
And on the wing of abominations shall be one who makes desolate,
Even until the consummation, which is determined,
Is poured out on the desolate.”
There's a distinction made between "He" in V26 and "he" in V27. A capital letter is always used when God is mentioned, and a lower case for everyone else. This is just additional confirmation, because as I see it the prince in V27 is Antichrist, not Jesus.
None of verse 27 has been fulfilled yet, so it points to a future time.

The antichrist, the "He," that ruler, doesn't come at the 69th week. The Messiah is cut off at the 69th week of years. The antichrist, the ruler, the "He" of Dan.9:27, is the one who initiates that last seven years, which is yet future. The last seven will be in fulfillment of the seventy sevens that was decreed upon Israel and Jerusalem in Dan.9:24.
You don't have enough study in end-time events yet.
You can't address verse 25. If the Messiah is killed on the 69th week and we know the messiah lived for 4 weeks, therefore according to you, the messiah came on:
69-4= 65th week
That's not what the angel said:
25 "Know therefore and understand, That from the going forth of the commandTo restore and build Jerusalem Until Messiah the Prince,There shall be seven weeks and sixty-two weeks;The street shall be built again, and the wall,Even in troublesome times"
The messiah comes on the 69th week, not 65th week.
69-4= 65th week
That's not what the angel said:
25 "Know therefore and understand, That from the going forth of the commandTo restore and build Jerusalem Until Messiah the Prince,There shall be seven weeks and sixty-two weeks;The street shall be built again, and the wall,Even in troublesome times"
The messiah comes on the 69th week, not 65th week.
I did not such thing! I copied and pasted that verse. It separates the Messiah from the coming prince, that ruler. It really is pointless to try and show you what this means, because you don't understand the plan. Therefore, you can believe as you will. The order of events are as follows:
* That gathering of the church
* The antichrist makes his covenant with Israel for one seven year period
* In the middle of the seven, the antichrist puts a stop to the sacrifice and offerings and sets up the abomination
* 3 1/2 years later the Lord returns to the earth to end the age and establish his millennial kingdom
Yes, the only one that fits and should have been known by Israel, is when Nehemiah received the letters (decrees) from Artaxerxes to restore and rebuild Jerusalem, which were those letters to pass through the area of the Trans-Euphrates and letters to take wood from the kings. If you will look in the margin of your Bible, you will see that that they have this taking place at about 446 BC.
7x7 = 49 years
62 x 7 = 434 years
Total = 69 seven year periods or 483 years
446 BC minus 483 years = 37 AD
With the calendar changes, that puts the time of the Messiah being cut off right in the ball park of the time of the Lord's crucifixion. Nehemiah is a detailed account of the seven 'sevens' to restore and rebuild Jerusalem. With 62 sevens added on to that equals 69 sevens, which is when Messiah was cut off. Daniel 9:27 has to do with the future fulfillment of that last seven years which will take place after the church has been gathered. The church must be gathered prior to the established of that last seven years, because it is also during that time when God's wrath will be poured out of which we are not appointed to suffer.
The man who will be the antichrist is most likely currently waiting in the wings, but can't be revealed until the One who is restraining him from being revealed is taken out of the way, which is the Holy Spirit through the indwelling of every believer in the church. Therefore, when the Holy Spirit is removed, then the church must also be removed with Him and then that man of lawlessness will be revealed (2 Thes.2:4-10). In the middle of the seven years is when that antichirst/beast will set up that abomination. From that time on he will have 3 1/2 years where during that time he will make war and conquer the great tribulation saints and the inhabitants whose names have not been written in the book of life from the beginning of the world, will worship him.
Just FYI, those are weeks of years, i.e. seventy sets of seven year periods, not literal weeks. You would be hard pressed to find fulfillment of seventy sets of weeks for the restoring and rebuilding of Jerusalem and the Messiah being cut off. Also, and as I previously stated, the Messiah and the prince are two individuals. You need to look at and compare the other translations:
"New International Version
"Know and understand this: From the time the word goes out to restore and rebuild Jerusalem until the Anointed One, the ruler, comes, there will be seven 'sevens,' and sixty-two 'sevens.' It will be rebuilt with streets and a trench, but in times of trouble."
The Anointed One and the ruler, are two separate individuals. The ruler is the same as the "the ruler of the people" mentioned in Dan.9:26.
"Until the Anointed One, the ruler comes," i.e. the ruler comes after the Anointed One. Two separate individuals.
Sorry, it would be very dishonest for me to read it that way. It just isn't worded as two separate people in THAT verse. (9:25)
You can't have a theory first then change the Bible to fit your theory. We need The Bible first, then CHANGE the theory to fit the Bible.

Regardless of what Irvin/Darby/Scofield or MacDonald may have believed or taught, makes no difference to those of us who study end-time events and that because we get our information straight from scripture and not by the teaching of any of those men. People use them as an apologetic to discredit those who are looking forward to and anticipating the promise of the Lord, the Blessed Hope, the appearing of our great God and Savior, Jesus Christ, of which Paul told us to comfort each other with that promise.
Here is the complete context:
"Know and understand this: From the time the word goes out to restore and rebuild Jerusalem until the Anointed One, the ruler, comes, there will be seven 'sevens,' and sixty-two 'sevens.' It will be rebuilt with streets and a trench, but in times of trouble.
After the sixty-two 'sevens,' the Anointed One will be put to death and will have nothing. The people of the ruler who will come will destroy the city and the sanctuary. The end will come like a flood: War will continue until the end, and desolations have been decreed.
He (the ruler) will confirm a covenant with many for one 'seven.' In the middle of the 'seven' he will put an end to sacrifice and offering. And at the temple he will set up an abomination that causes desolation, until the end that is decreed is poured out on him."
Now, if you want to make the Messiah the same as "the ruler" in all three verses, then it would mean that Jesus would have to be the One performing the following:
* Establishing a seven year covenant with Israel
* Destroy the city and the sanctuary
* Put a stop to the sacrifices and offerings and set up the abomination
Jesus did not perform any of those events above. The "He" in verse 27 is the one who establishes the seven year covenant with Israel and the one who breaks it and causes the sacrifices to cease and the one who sets up the abomination.
The word "bdelugma" is defined as "a reeking stench which goes up before God. An abominable thing, an accursed thing." Therefore, if you make the "He" in the context as referring to Jesus, then you have Jesus setting up the abomination, which would be blasphemy against God the Father and himself, ergo, "the ruler" has to be someone other than the Messiah.
I'm not speaking off the cuff of my sleeve. I know what I'm talking about. I've studied it enough and I know the plan. I can't help it if you guys don't.
