Know therefore and understand that from the going forth of the of the commandment to restore and to build Jerusalem
unto the Messiah the Prince shall be seven weeks and threescore and two weeks the street shall be built again and
the wall even in troubleous times. And AFTER three score and two weeks shall Messiah be cut off but not for himself
and the people of the Prince that shall come shall destroy the city and the sanctuary and the end shall be with a flood and unto the end of the war desolation's are determined.
DAN 9:25 -26
Seven weeks plus threescore and two weeks make sixty nine weeks of years. The scripture says that AFTER the threescore weeks of years the Messiah shall be cut off. What comes after the threescore weeks of years? The seventieth week. That week cannot be a future seven year tribulation period because we know that Christ was cut off (Crucified) around 30AD He was crucified according to Daniels prophecy in the seventieth week not the sixty ninth. Careful reading and simple arithmetic shows this.
When did a people come and destroy the City and Sanctuary? The Romans in AD70. In Daniel it also says and to the end of the war desolation's are determined. Which war could this be referring to? The Jewish War that took place between AD66 and AD70. Led by Titus. This left the Temple Site and City desolate. This is what Jesus warned his Disciples about in Matthew 24.
Many Christians heeded his warning and escaped the horrendous carnage that took place at that time. Josephus writes about it in graphic detail.
