Daniel chapter 9 cannot be fulfilled.

The Bible says that Jesus came unto His own,Israel,but they did not receive Him.

Jesus said that because Israel did not accept Him,then their house would be left desolate until they say blessed is He that comes in the name of the Lord.

God told Israel in Deuteronomy that He gives them a curse and a blessing.A blessing if they follow God,and a curse if they did not follow God,did not follow the truth,which the curse is to be scattered in to the nations.

Jerusalem was overthrown in 70 A.D. by the Romans,testifying that a curse was brought upon them for rejecting the truth,which was not accepting Jesus,and they were scattered off their land.

So as a nation the Jews did not receive Jesus,as the Bible testifies,and the few Jews that followed Jesus obviously does not qualify for the nation of Israel to accept Jesus.

The Bible says that Israel is blinded in part until the fulness of the Gentiles be come in,and we can see that Israel as a nation still does not accept Christ and are blinded in part.

From the time of Jesus until now,Israel as a nation still does not accept Jesus.

24Seventy weeks are determined upon thy people and upon thy holy city, to finish the transgression, and to make an end of sins, and to make reconciliation for iniquity, and to bring in everlasting righteousness, and to seal up the vision and prophecy, and to anoint the most Holy(Daniel 9:24).

This is saying that Israel as a nation has 70 weeks to get in the truth and recognize Jesus as their Messiah,which Jesus is the most holy they must anoint.

But since Israel as a nation does not accept Jesus from the time of Jesus until now,then the 70 weeks could not be fulfilled,for the 70 weeks to be fulfilled Israel as a nation must recognize Jesus as their Messiah which they do not do.

We know that 69 weeks have passed that is shown in scripture.That leaves one week which cannot be fulfilled yet,for Israel as a nation does not accept Christ.It will be during this last week that God brings them to the truth that Jesus is their Messiah,and Israel as a nation accepts Jesus,in which they say blessed is He that comes in the name of the Lord and they then can see Jesus.

During that last week the Gentile nations come together and rebel against the truth,and Israel comes to the truth,and the fulness of the Gentiles be come in,which God said He will make a full end of all Gentile nations,but will not make a full end of Israel,but they will not be altogether unpunished.

So there is one week to go in the future.

In verse 26 it talks of the prince to come,and in verse 27 it is still talking of the prince to come,that will establish a covenant for one week,and will spread abominations,his lies,throughout the earth.

How did Jesus establish a covenant for one week,7 years.How can that apply to anything.What covenant did Jesus establish for 7 years.I never heard of a 7 years covenant of Jesus.I would like to know.

The only covenant I know is an everlasting covenant.And the Bible says that during the 7 years covenant,the person who made the covenant causes abominations to spread.

How does Jesus cause abominations to spread.It sounds like the 7 years covenant is made by a nasty man.

Not true! The Seventy Weeks have already been fulfilled, and Scripture has been fulfilled, just as Jesus Christ said it would be fulfilled. The only thing that matters is that now is the day of salvation, and all people are called by the Holy Spirit to be saved by Jesus Christ. That's all that matters. Figuring out what will happen in the future is of little consequence. We need to figure out (know) how to live godly lives TODAY.
Not worry about a future great tribulation and a restored Jewish Temple in Jerusalem.

Scott, this is your problem, you put too much credit on what others say and not enough on what the Bible teaches. Like I told you on the other thread, YOU can't prove with one single verse that the 70th week is fulfilled.

Who made a covenant with many for one week? Just answer that one. Answer anything, and try to quit throwing it on someone's elses writings.

Mark 1:15
(15) And saying, The time is fulfilled, and the kingdom of God is at hand: repent ye, and believe the gospel.

You're assuming Lao. So explain Matt. 24:15 "Therefore when you see the 'abomination of desolation' spoken of by Daniel the prophet, standing in the holy place"(whoever reads, let him understand).

This is a direct reference to Daniel 9:27, it's quoting part of it. Not to mention everybody knows Matt. 24 is ALL about the final days. Shalom

Daniel's 70th Week 490 Years
www.angelfire/com/nt/books/daniel.html


You know Scott. This gets old. You say you don't listen to men, but your whole belief system is based on what men say.

If you would just look at scripture and stop trying to have other people to think for you you would know dan 9 CAN'T have been fulfilled completely!


26 “And after the sixty-two weeks
Messiah shall be cut off, but not for Himself;


Fullfilled on the cross. 69 weeks fully completed.

And the people of the prince who is to come
Shall destroy the city and the sanctuary
.

Fulfilled in 70 AD. By the roman army. who are the "people of the prince who is to come. Meaning a future roman leader. This happened almost 40 years after the 69 weeks. so no seven can be included.


The end of it shall be with a flood,
And till the end of the war desolations are determined.

Unfulfilled. The end of wars and desolation have not yet come. For there are still wars and rumors of wars. There are still desolation occurring as we speak.

27 Then he shall confirm a covenant with many for one week;

Unfulfilled. "he" is the "prince who is to come, who will come out of the people who destroyed the sanctuary. No one week covenant has ever been confirmed which fits this description.

But in the middle of the week
He shall bring an end to sacrifice and offering.
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.”


Unfulfilled.

1. Middle of what week? this occures after 70 AD, by the prince who is to come
2. Poured out on the desolate. This is Gods wrath being poured out during the last half of the week. Or what John and Christ calls the tribulation period. which will end with the return of Christ. which will put an end to wars. and desolations.


Just stop listening to men Scott. And ask God to show you truth. and you will plainly see dan 9 has not been fulfilled. It is IMPOSSIBLE

Dear Avinu:

The words of God in the New Testament. The words of Christ:
"I know thy works, and tribulation, and poverty, (but thou art rich) and I know the blasphemy of them which says they are Jews, and are not, but are the synagogue of Satan". Revelation 2:9 KJV
"Behold, I will make them a synagogue of Satan, which say they are Jews, and are not, but do lie: behold, I will make them to come and worship before thy feet, and to know that I have loved thee." Revelation 3:9 KJV
"But God forbid that I should glory, save in the cross of our Lord Jesus Christ, by whom the world is crucified unto me, and I unto the world." Galatians 6:14 KJV

The Star of David? The flag of Israel? The Star of the Jews? A pagan symbol.
No room for boasting about the Law or being a Jew; no salvation except in the Cross of our Lord Jesus Christ! Gal. 6:14. This, for both Jew and Gentile alike: No exception. God has taken down the wall of separation between Jew and Gentile, and no need for the OT covenant animal sacrifices; all OT teaching is fulfilled in Jesus Christ in the NT, given for the salvation of all men (2 Peter 3:9).
God bless you. In Erie PA Scott R. Harrington
PS Lest you think the NT is anti-Semitic, Scripture also says, "Salvation (Jesus Christ) is of the Jews" (Romans). And "All Israel shall be saved" (Romans 11).
Saved in Christ alone.
Solus Christus. Sola gratia. By grace alone.

Daniel 9:27
(27) And he shall confirm the covenant with many for one week: and in the midst of the week he shall cause the sacrifice and the oblation to cease, and for the overspreading of abominations he shall make it desolate, even until the consummation, and that determined shall be poured upon the desolate.

The part highlighted in red can also be translated as this:-
upon the battlements shall be the idols of the desolator.

So it can also read like this:-
Daniel 9:27

(27) And he shall confirm the covenant with many for one week: and in the midst of the week he shall cause the sacrifice and the oblation to cease, and
upon the battlements shall be the idols of the desolator, even until the consummation, and that determined shall be poured upon the desolate.

Also in regards to Matthew 24:15 look at the verses in Mark and Luke as well
Matthew 24:15
(15) When ye therefore shall see the abomination of desolation, spoken of by Daniel the prophet, stand in the holy place, (whoso readeth, let him understand:)
Mark 13:14
(14) But when ye shall see the abomination of desolation, spoken of by Daniel the prophet, standing where it ought not, (let him that readeth understand,) then let them that be in Judaea flee to the mountains:
Luke 21:20-21
(20) And when ye shall see Jerusalem compassed with armies, then know that the desolation thereof is nigh.
(21) Then let them which are in Judaea flee to the mountains; and let them which are in the midst of it depart out; and let not them that are in the countries enter thereinto.

We need to put all 3 verses together



and we have historical records that this occurred in 70 AD, when the temple was destroyed fulfilling Jesus words:

Matthew 24

1 Then Jesus went out and departed from the temple, and His disciples came up to show Him the buildings of the temple. 2 And Jesus said to them, “Do you not see all these things? Assuredly, I say to you, not one stone shall be left here upon another, that shall not be thrown down.”


it helps if you recognize that verse 3 are about three DIFFERENT events or at the very least three different topics, which may not occur at the same time.


3 Now as He sat on the Mount of Olives, the disciples came to Him privately, saying, “Tell us, when will these things be? And what will be the sign of Your coming, and of the end of the age?”


1. when the temple will be destroyed

2. when Jesus will come

3. the end of the age

from verse 4 to verse 34 Jesus answers the first question of when the temple with be destroyed.

ending with these words:

34 Assuredly, I say to you, this generation will by no means pass away till all these things take place


therefore WHEN did that generation pass away? Where His words fulfilled?

I believe the answer is YES in 70 AD with the destruction of the 2nd temple.

now too often people mix in the rest of Matthew 24 with the first part but Jesus is answering question 2 and 3 in verses 35 - 51. He refers to a time when Heaven and Earth will pass away (the end of the age) and the second coming of Christ (His return). John speaks of it again in Revelation 21 when he says these words:

Revelation 21

1 Now I saw a new heaven and a new earth, for the first heaven and the first earth had passed away. Also there was no more sea. 2 Then I, John,[a] saw the holy city, New Jerusalem, coming down out of heaven from God, prepared as a bride adorned for her husband. 3 And I heard a loud voice from heaven saying, “Behold, the tabernacle of God is with men, and He will dwell with them, and they shall be His people. God Himself will be with them and be their God. 4 And God will wipe away every tear from their eyes; there shall be no more death, nor sorrow, nor crying. There shall be no more pain, for the former things have passed away.”
5 Then He who sat on the throne said, “Behold, I make all things new.” And He said to me, “Write, for these words are true and faithful.”

24Seventy weeks are determined upon thy people and upon thy holy city, to finish the transgression, and to make an end of sins, and to make reconciliation for iniquity, and to bring in everlasting righteousness, and to seal up the vision and prophecy, and to anoint the most Holy.

Somehow how discussions of prophecy always exclude discussion of this portion that is highlighted. the phrase "to seal up the vision and prophecy" means that by the end of the 70th week ALL prophecies in scripture will have been fulfilled and completed. Which means the only way you can possibly think the 70th week is done is if you are a preterist (and that position is easily refutable with scripture).

So in short, there is really no way the 70th week could be done because many, many Old Testament prophecies have not been fulfilled yet.

Yep. I'm sure. And the prophecies of the Old Testament, of which there are hundreds, of course apply to various groups and individuals all over the world.

Daniel 9:27
(27) And he shall confirm the covenant with many for one week: and in the midst of the week he shall cause the sacrifice and the oblation to cease, and for the overspreading of abominations he shall make it desolate, even until the consummation, and that determined shall be poured upon the desolate.

The part highlighted in red can also be translated as this:-
upon the battlements shall be the idols of the desolator.

So it can also read like this:-
Daniel 9:27

(27) And he shall confirm the covenant with many for one week: and in the midst of the week he shall cause the sacrifice and the oblation to cease, and
upon the battlements shall be the idols of the desolator, even until the consummation, and that determined shall be poured upon the desolate.

Also in regards to Matthew 24:15 look at the verses in Mark and Luke as well
Matthew 24:15
(15) When ye therefore shall see the abomination of desolation, spoken of by Daniel the prophet, stand in the holy place, (whoso readeth, let him understand:)
Mark 13:14
(14) But when ye shall see the abomination of desolation, spoken of by Daniel the prophet, standing where it ought not, (let him that readeth understand,) then let them that be in Judaea flee to the mountains:
Luke 21:20-21
(20) And when ye shall see Jerusalem compassed with armies, then know that the desolation thereof is nigh.
(21) Then let them which are in Judaea flee to the mountains; and let them which are in the midst of it depart out; and let not them that are in the countries enter thereinto.

We need to put all 3 verses together




1. Where did you get that other interpretation of Daniel? I have studied the Hebrew a few times, and never seen anything like that.
2. Yes they should be put together.

A. When you see the abomination (idol) standing where it should not be (the Holy of Holy's)
B. When you see the city of Jerusalem encompassed with ARMIES (plural) which leaves us with a few
things.

1. In 70 AD, it would have been normal to see the roman ARMY (singular) encompassed around jerusalem, especially since jerusalem was under roman authority.
2. Even if you do not agree with this, you must agree with the fact that in AD 70 there was only one Army lead by one general who destroyed jersualem. Not armies, like Jesus stated there would be.

Also in Daniel we have the timeline and sequence of events which line up with what Jesus said.


In dan 9 we have the destruction of the city and Temple. And jesus mentions this in matt 24: 1-2.

Dan 9: And the people of the prince who is to come Shall destroy the city and the sanctuary.

Matt 24: 1-2:
24 Then Jesus went out and departed from the temple, and His disciples came up to show Him the buildings of the temple. 2 And Jesus said to them, “Do you not see all these things? Assuredly, I say to you, not one stone shall be left here upon another, that shall not be thrown down.”


Then Daniel and Jesus mention wars and desolation.


Dan 9: till the end of the war desolations are determined.

mat 24: 6 And you will hear of wars and rumors of wars. See that you are not troubled; for all[a] these things must come to pass,(are determined) but the end is not yet. 7 For nation will rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom. And there will be famines, pestilences,[b] and earthquakes in various places. 8 All these are the beginning of sorrows.

Then after all these things, you have the abomination of desolation. immediately followed by the consumation which is determined by God, is poured out on the desolate (his wrath)

Dan 9: But in the middle of the week He shall bring an end to sacrifice and offering. 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.”

Matt 24: 21 For then there will be great tribulation, such as has not been since the beginning of the world until this time, no, nor ever shall be. 22 And unless those days were shortened, no flesh would be saved; but for the elect’s sake those days will be shortened.

we MUST concentrate on the latter half of what Jesus said. According to Jesus, these days will be so severe that mankind has the ability to make itself extinct. And Christ must return to put a stop to it. or there would be no living human beings. This was not even possible until the advent of Nuclear power.

either way, no matter how you look at it. Daniel 9, nor matt 24 could have possibly not been fulfilled as of yet. Which means they must be yet future.

It is in the marginal reading in the Bible. The marginal reading in the Bible is also inspired.

So it can also read like this:-
Daniel 9:27

(27) And he shall confirm the covenant with many for one week: and in the midst of the week he shall cause the sacrifice and the oblation to cease, and
upon the battlements shall be the idols of the desolator, even until the consummation, and that determined shall be poured upon the desolate.
