Daniel 9:24 Seventy 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.​

​

Detailed Timeline​

Set 1 — Finish the Transgression (515 BC – 445 BC)​

The Second Temple was completed on the third day of Adar, in the sixth year of Darius I — dated to approximately March 12, 515 BC (Ezra 6:15). This fulfilled Jeremiah's seventy-year prophecy of exile (Jer. 25:11, 29:10), measured from the first Temple's destruction in 586 BC. The reason the Jews were exiled was because of their transgression for seventy weeks in not keeping the sabbath year. So since they didn't keep 70 sabbath years God exiled them for seventy years to give the land rest. This is what is referred to as "to finish the transgression".
Artaxerxes I's decree authorizing Nehemiah to rebuild Jerusalem's wall followed in the month of Nisan, the king's twentieth year — 445 BC (Neh. 2:1–8). The interval between these two independently dated, textually attested events is exactly seventy years.

Set 2 — Make an End of Sin (445 BC – 46 AD)​

This set opens with Artaxerxes' decree (445 BC), dated by Sir Robert Anderson to 1 Nisan, March 14, 445 BC (Julian). Anderson's 1894 calculation — refined by Harold Hoehner in 1977 — measures 69 weeks (483 years) as 173,880 days of 360-day "prophetic" years from that date, landing on April 6, 32 AD: Palm Sunday, four days before the traditional crucifixion date. This calculation is well-established in dispensational scholarship, though contested by critics who reject the 360-day-year premise and Anderson's specific start-date assumptions.

However, rather than placing the Messiah's "cutting off" (Dan. 9:26) at the conclusion of the 69th week, I place it at the first year of that week. In Galatians 2:1 Paul goes up to Jerusalem "fourteen years" after a prior visit is read here as marking the point at which the ministry of reconciliation became the church's official ministry (the Jerusalem council) — landing at 46 AD, which independently coincides with the terminus of a full 490-solar-year count from 445 BC. Jesus making an end of sin on the cross does not conclude that same year. Acts is very clear that there was still some question about whether or not they still needed to keep the Jewish rules concerning animal sacrifices, kosher eating and circumcision. That was resolved at this conference 14 years later.

Set 3 — Make Reconciliation for Iniquity (46 AD – 536 AD)​

This set of 70 weeks of years opens at the Jerusalem council's formalization of the Gentile mission. The mission as laid out by Paul is that we have received the ministry of reconciliation. The Apostolic Fathers (Clement of Rome, Ignatius, Polycarp) write as direct successors to the apostles through the late first century. Persecution under successive emperors (Nero, Domitian, Decius, Diocletian) accompanies steady expansion until Constantine's conversion and the Edict of Milan (313) end state persecution. The Council of Nicaea (325) produces the first ecumenical creed; three further councils — Constantinople (381), Ephesus (431), Chalcedon (451) — settle Trinitarian and Christological doctrine through the work of Athanasius, the Cappadocian Fathers, Augustine, Jerome, and John Chrysostom.

The set closes on a genuinely notable historical marker. The Byzantine historian Procopius, writing as a contemporary, recorded that in 536 AD "the sun gave forth its light without brightness... like the sun in eclipse" for the entire year — an atmospheric dust-veil event, now understood as volcanic in origin, that historians regard as the most severe episode of Northern Hemisphere cooling in the last two thousand years. During this time the ministry of reconciliation was codified.

Set 4 — Bring in Everlasting Righteousness (536 AD – 1026 AD)​

The rise of Islam and the rapid Arab conquests of the 630s–700s strip the church of its ancient heartlands — Jerusalem (637), Alexandria (641), Carthage (698) — permanently ending Christian political dominance across the regions. Islam and Judaism are both trying to establish a righteousness of their own during this time.

We have the Islamic conquest, and we have Spanish inquisition and other atrocities. People are doing what is right in their own eyes and trying to justify it with their religion whether it is Islam, Judaism or a dominionism version of Christianity. But behind the scenes there are Christians who come to see that Jesus is our righteousness and our works in trying to bring in the kingdom are bloody rags.

Set 5 — Seal Up the Vision (1026 AD – 1516 AD)​

This set's boundary is anchored by two independently, precisely dated events that both fall in 1516. Erasmus's Novum Instrumentum omne — the first published Greek New Testament on March 1, 1516, becoming the textual basis for Luther's, Tyndale's, and the King James translations. In the same year, Ottoman forces under Selim I captured Jerusalem from the Mamluks in the final weeks of 1516 (the war concluding with the Battle of Ridaniya in January 1517), beginning four centuries of Ottoman rule over the city.

Set 6 — Seal Up the Prophecy (1516 AD – 2006 AD)​

Opens with Erasmus's Greek New Testament (March 1516) and Luther's Ninety-Five Theses (October 1517) arriving within eighteen months of each other, together fueling the Reformation. The British and Foreign Bible Society (1804), the Gideons International (1899, dedicated specifically to Scripture distribution), and Wycliffe Bible Translators/SIL International (1942 onward, translating Scripture into previously unwritten languages) drive Scripture into the majority of the world's major languages by the close of the twentieth century.

For the Jews, this period runs from the absorption of Sephardic exiles into Ottoman territory after 1492, to the Balfour Declaration and Allenby's capture of Jerusalem from Ottoman rule (1917 — exactly four hundred years after the Ottoman conquest that opens this set), the Holocaust (1933–1945), the establishment of the State of Israel (1948), the Six-Day War and reunification of Jerusalem (1967), and the Yom Kippur War (1973). All prophetic fulfillments.

The set closes in 2006: Hamas wins the Palestinian legislative elections in January; the Second Lebanon War runs July–August; Saddam Hussein is sentenced to death in November and executed by hanging in Baghdad on December 30, 2006 — within the final two days of the calendar year. The pieces being put in place for the upcoming wars.

This period begins with Ottoman forces under Selim I capturing Jerusalem and ends with Saddam Hussein being executed.

1. Finish the transgression refers to Israel finishing the transgression they made in not keeping the sabbath years.
2. Make an end of sin is the once for all sacrifice Jesus made to redeem us. This is the gospel that we are saved by grace.
3. Make reconciliation for iniquity is the fact that we have been given the ministry of reconciliation.
4. Bring in everlasting righteousness, the church is God's Poiema, masterpiece, created for good works, not for military conquest.
5. Seal up the vision refers to having a complete translation of the Greek New Testament.
6. Seal up the prophecy refers to printing and publishing the Bible, with over 8 billion Bibles having been published as well as internet versions.

OK. I see that sinister forces are stuffing "Bible studies" into Cracker Jack boxes.

Thanks for the heads up. I will be sure to get the warning out there.

Chronister and Fruchtenbaum will be mercifully excluded of course. The shock of reading that stuff would land them in hospital.

I note that there is widespread disagreement among those who hold to the idea that the 70 weeks are not yet concluded.
I see it as one of the easiest prophesies in the OT, because a timeline is provided.
The timeline is part of the prophesy, and without it there are so many possible interpretations that the prophesy becomes almost meaningless.
So my understanding of what those points are about:
1.Jesus, 2.Jesus, 3.Jesus,.4.Jesus, 5.Jesus and 6. Jesus.

"360 days each, but 7 years that are 365.25 days each"

Well, I see that you have stumbled right out of the gate ROFL.

Your claim that the final 7 years (the 70th Week of Daniel) suddenly shifts to standard solar years of 365.25 days breaks the mathematical harmony built into biblical prophecy.

Scripture defines its own prophetic calendar. By comparing parallel passages across Daniel and Revelation, we can mathematically prove that a prophetic year is strictly **360 days**, divided into **12 months of 30 days each**.

## The Mathematical Proof: Daniel & Revelation
The most airtight proof comes from comparing how Daniel and the Apostle John describe the exact same future time period: the second half of Daniel's 70th week (the 7 years).
Scripture uses three different phrasing metrics to describe this 3.5-year period (half of the 7-year week). When you align them, the math only works if a year is exactly 360 days.

### 1. In Days: 1,260 Days
* **Revelation 11:3:** *"And I will give power to my two witnesses, and they will prophesy **1,260 days**, clothed in sackcloth."*
* **Revelation 12:6:** *"Then the woman fled into the wilderness, where she has a place prepared by God, that they should feed her there **1,260 days**."*
### 2. In Months: 42 Months
* **Revelation 11:2:** *"...And they will tread the holy city underfoot for **42 months**."*
* **Revelation 13:5:** *"...And he was given authority to continue for **42 months**."*
### 3. In Years: 3.5 Years ("Time, Times, and Half a Time")
In Hebrew and apocalyptic literature, a "time" equals one year, "times" equals two years, and "half a time" equals half a year. Totaling **3.5 years**.
* **Daniel 7:25 & 12:7:** The saints are given into the enemy's hand for a *"time and times and half a time."*
* **Revelation 12:14:** The woman is nourished in the wilderness for a *"time and times and half a time."*


### Bringing the Math Together
If we take these inspired definitions of the *exact same window of time*, the calculation is simple arithmetic:
If the final 7 years were meant to switch to 365.25-day solar years, 3.5 years would equal roughly 1,278 days. The text explicitly says 1,260.

## Other Scriptural Citations for the 360-Day Year
The 360-day calendar is not an invention unique to the end times; it is the foundational calendar used throughout Scripture before solar/lunar adjustments.

### 1. The Genesis Flood Account (The Earliest Anchor)
In Genesis, Moses gives us precise dates that show a 30-day month and a 360-day year were standard from the beginning:
* **The Flood Starts:** The 17th day of the 2nd month (Genesis 7:11).
* **The Ark Rests:** The 17th day of the 7th month (Genesis 8:4).
* **The Duration:** Exactly **5 months** later.
* **The Exact Day Count:** Genesis 7:24 and 8:3 explicitly state that the water prevailed for **150 days**.
Divide 150 days by 5 months, and you get exactly **30 days per month**. Multiply that by 12 months, and you have a **360-day year**.

### 2. King Artaxerxes' Decree to Christ's Triumphal Entry
Historically, Sir Robert Anderson (*The Coming Prince*) demonstrated that the first 69 weeks of Daniel's prophecy (483 prophetic years) were fulfilled to the exact day using the 360-day calendar.
From the decree of Artaxerxes to rebuild Jerusalem (March 14, 445 BC) to Jesus’ Triumphal Entry into Jerusalem (April 6, 32 AD) is exactly 173,880 days.
If you calculate that span using standard solar years (including leap years), it hits the exact same number.

God calculated the history *and* the prophecy on a 360-day cycle.
> **Summary:** Your attempt to insert 365.25-day solar years into the final 7 years fails biblically. Scripture is entirely self-consistent. From Genesis to Revelation, God's prophetic clock operates on 30-day months and 360-day years.

No, you missed the point, a Shemitah is always from Rosh Hashanah of one year to the next. It is possible that from one year to the next it is fewer than 365.25 days, but over a seven year period that is highly unlikely to impossible to be 38 days less.

This is the problem, if you accept that Antichrist reigns for 2,520 days that is 7 years that are 360 days each. But here is the problem, the Antichrist is not revealed in his reign until after the rapture. The restrainer must be removed first. The Day of the Lord is the day of the Lord's judgment and judgment must begin with the house of God. So then, the 70th week begins with judgment on the house of God which is the rapture. Then after Satan and his hosts are defeated you have Christ in his victory with His people. You are not going to go from Armageddon to the wedding feast in one day. Armageddon will certainly be on the 9th of Av, and the victory will be the 15th of Av when the Jews realize the curse has ceased. That is 45 days before Feast of Trumpets and Day of atonement and Feast of Tabernacles.

As long as you hold to this idea that the 70th week equals the 2,520 days of the Antichrist you cannot line up anything.

What are you saying? Do you really think the 70th week is the same thing as 2,520 days? Don't you know that the restrainer has to be removed before the antichrist can be revealed? And why would you think that the two witnesses, the two lampstands would have their ministry begin the same day the Antichrist is revealed? That makes no sense at all. And do you really think the "Day of the Lord" equals the Antichrist reign?! Are you nuts, you think the Lord would share his glory with the Antichrist? What is this the kindergarten class on the seventieth week? Why do you think they have different terms if they were all the same thing? The Day of the Lord is the Day of the Lord's judgment, not Antichrists. 2,520 days is how many days he has been given, but, the Day of the Lord must begin with judgment on the house of God, not by AntiChrist but by God. Do you know anything? The two lampstands begin their ministry on the first day of Hanukah, that is also the day that you can no longer give the first fruits of oil to God. The "door closes" on that day to offering the oil to God. Feast of Trumpets, or "Day of the awakening blast" is the first day that you can offer the new oil to God. That is when the foolish virgins are told to go and buy oil from those that sell. They return after the door is shut, referring to the first day of Hanukah when the ministry of the two lampstands begins. 1,260 days later is 2nd Passover, the day that the two witnesses are killed. It is mostly in the first half of the AntiChrists reign, but in reality their ministry starts about two months after Antichrist's reign starts. Have you even studied this topic? God is the same today, yesterday and forever. He tells you the end from the beginning because it is proof that He alone is God. These days all begin and end on appointed days. All of your AI posts have made your head soft.

Unless those days be shortened, no flesh would be saved.
Calculate that in there.

Ok, so let me see if I understand correctly, God is same yesterday, today and forever. He gives us a very precise description of Jesus crucifixion, including the fact that He is the lamb of God which takes away the sin of the world, how Jesus would be crucified, the things he would say on the cross, what time, he is slain, etc. But then when it comes to everything else it is all kind of general. Why is it exactly so many years to the crucifixion? Well that is because of this 70 weeks doctrine which is the same thing as forgiving someone 70x7 times. But then after the crucifixion, if we ask why is there this period of time known as the church age, well it is "who knows", how long is the church age? "who knows". The period of time for the Jews to be punished and removed from the land was very specific in the Old testament, but now if you ask it is "who knows". So the God who was incredibly precise, the one who told you the end from the beginning because only God can do that, now he is more "live and let live"? What happened? When did God change so dramatically?

It's not about the crucifixion. Too much is being conflated here. God is being precise with events about the end times. 70 weeks is 70 weeks. What's the church age, all the apostles and prophets say society gets worse before the end. God is not "live and let live" that's a critical error. Believe in God and live, don't believe and burn forever, that's the message that never changes.

Antichrist's reign is 2,520 days, that is shortener than 7 years that are 365.25 days. But then the wrath of God is significantly shorter period of time than that.

The point is that Jesus was conceived on an appointed day, born on an appointed day, circumcised on an appointed day, crucified on an appointed day, resurrected on an appointed day, ascended on an appointed day, and poured out the Spirit as the New wine on an appointed day. God tells us that He does this, giving us appointed days which are "dress rehearsals" for these events because He is God, He can tell the end from the beginning and there is none else. The idea that this is who God was but now he has changed and doesn't do that is rejected by the Bible which tells us that is not true.

Look man, Daniel 9 does NOT contain the term "Shemitah". It does not even cite the term "year".....at all.

Furthermore, the PRE TRIB rapture harmonizes perfectly with the Jewish wedding protocol statements made by Jesus Himself flawlessly.

And all of this concatenates flawlessly with everything Paul has to say on the matter.

That preposterous theory you proffered regarding Dan 9 was absolutely rubbish BTW. Just a hopeless embarrassing mess.

Garbage in garbage out.

Jesus comes back on an appointed day too, a day that only the Father knows. Jesus comes back to end the world and judge everyone that ever lived. God has not changed.

So prove it, show me your timeline with everything falling on appointed days? This is simply baloney.

Shemitah is the sabbath year. In Daniel 9 he talks about 70 weeks. That term week means a group of seven and in this case it is seven years, the seventh year of each of these weeks is a Shemitah. How can you pretend to teach about the seventieth week if you you don't even understand that?

 

[ZNP]

Look man....your are serious confused.

No, put your cracker jack down, and answer the questions.

1. Does judgment begin at the house of God, yes or no?

2. Does the restrainer have to be removed before the man of sin can be revealed, yes or no?

3. Is the day of the Lord the Day of the judgement of Jesus or of the Antichrist?

4. If Jesus defeats the armies of Antichrist then does that mean the day of defeat is the last day of Antichrist's reign, yes or no?

5. Why would the Bible use the term 70th week and 2,520 days for the same thing?

6. If the seventieth week begins with the judgement on the house of God, before the Antichrist is revealed, and if the Antichrist is defeated before the end of the seventieth week, then how could the two time periods be the same length?

If you can't answer the most basic questions about the Day of the Lord then why would you even open your mouth about this subject?

A week is a group of seven. We think of seven days, but in the Old Testament the 70 weeks of Daniel is not 70 weeks of days, it is 70 weeks of years. That is 70x7=490 years. When Jesus said you need to forgive 70x7 times he was saying 70 weeks. That is the significance of the seventy weeks. What did you think the seventieth week meant?

The text doesn't say that. You're conflating it into Jesus telling Peter to forgive, and you can forgive more than 77 times too btw.

70 weeks = 1 year and 3 to 4 months roughly.

Read the books of Moses, it is very clear, God's law says that every seventh year is a sabbath year known as a Shemitah and that God counts weeks of years. The reason that Israel was carried off to Babylon for 70 years was because they failed to keep the sabbath years for the the previous 70 weeks of years, so God expelled them to give the land the 70 years of rest it needed.

I know what the Shemitah is. This isn't about that nor is it about years. It's about the reign of the Antichrist and the Beast near the end of the world. It's a lot of reading but these are all talking about one and the same event.

Antichrist does not reign for the whole time, his reign is 2,520 days, that is 84 months that are 30 days each and his reign ends on the 9th of Av with the Jews realizing the curse is over on the 15th of Av. There is absolutely no scriptural basis to say that the Day of the Lord or the seventieth week is 2,520 days. That is specifically the period of Time that the antichrist reigns until he is defeated. Likewise there is no scriptural basis to say that the ministry of the two witnesses, which is 1,260 days is precisely in the first half of the Antichrist's reign. People who teach this are making baseless assumptions that they haven't tested because they do not fit any biblical prophecies relevant to that. You can make a case from the Bible that the two witnesses begin their ministry on the first day of Hanukah and are killed on 2nd Passover. But you cannot make a case that Antichrist begins then. The two witnesses were prefigured by the Maccabees and they were responding to Antiochus Epiphanes. The very typology proves the man of sin is revealed first, then the second the two witnesses begin their ministry second. And both of those things happen after the rapture, after the restrainer has been removed.
