Gabriel’s Announcement – Dan 9:24-25 The Messiah The King Commandment to Rebuild Jerusalem LXX Decree of Artaxerxes Longimanus The Triumphal Entry • Seventy weeks are determined upon thy people and upon thy holy city, • to finish the transgression, • to make an end of sins, • to make reconciliation for iniquity, • to bring in everlasting righteousness, • to seal up the vision and prophecy, and • to anoint the most Holy Place. Daniel 9:24 69 Weeks 70th Week Interval The Church A New Creation not “thy people”; Not the Jews Know therefore and understand, that from the going forth of the commandment to restore and to build Jerusalem unto the Messiah the King shall be seven weeks, and threescore and two weeks: the street shall be built again, and the wall, even in troublous times. Daniel 9:25 Abomination of Desolation 7 Weeks 62 Weeks 6 April 32 AD 173,880 Days 14 March 445 BC
Where to start counting?The Decrees to “Rebuild” (1) Cyrus, 537 B.C., Ezra 1:2-4; (2) Darius, Ezra 6:1-5, 8, 12; (3) Artaxerxes, 458 B.C,. Ezra 7:11-26; (4) Artaxerxes, 445 B.C.,Neh 2:5-8, 17, 18. • Commands (#1), (#2), & (#3): were to build the Temple. • Only (#4) was to rebuild the city, the walls, etc. • …from the going forth of the commandment to restore and to build Jerusalem…the street shall be built again, and the wall…. Dan 9:25 The commandment to restore and build Jerusalem was given by Artaxerxes Longimanus on March 14, 445 B.C. (The emphasis on the street and the wall is to avoid confusion with the other mandates involving only the Temple).
The 70th Week – Dan 9:26-27 And after threescore and two weeks shall Messiah be cut off, but not for himself:… Daniel 9:26 69 Weeks 70th Week (Interval) The Church Restrainer Removed Abomination of Desolation Matt 24:15 3 1/2 years 42 months 1,260 days 3 1/2 years 42 months 1,260 days Man of Sin Revealed Apr 32 AD Jerusalem restored Wrath of God Apostasy Beginning of Sorrows The Great Tribulation 70 AD Jun 1967 and in the midst of the week he shall cause the sacrifice and the oblation to cease, Daniel 9:27 and for the overspreading of abominations he shall make it desolate, even until the consummation, and that determined shall be poured upon the desolate. Daniel 9:27 130 AD Covenant Enforced and the people of the prince that shall come shall destroy the city and the sanctuary; Daniel 9:26 And he shall enforce the covenant with [the] many for one week: Daniel 9:27 and the end thereof shall be with a flood, and unto the end of the war desolations are determined. Daniel 9:26
Ezekiel's 430 years - (Ezek 4:1-8). The Bible always seems to deal in 360 day years. Using 360 day years, 2,520 years = 907,200 days Converting the 2,520 years 360 into our 365 day years = 2,483 years 365 plus 9 months and 21 days:
The Servitude of the Nation If you start with the first siege ofNebuchadnezzar, which began the "Servitude of the Nation" in 606 B.C., the 70 years of of Babylonian servitude ended in 537 B.C. Using July 23 (Julian) of the year 537 B.C. as Israel’s release from servitude, then From: 537 y 7 m 23 d BC Duration: 2483 y 9 m 21 d (2,520 years360) Adjusting: 1 y (See note below - no "year 0") Brings us to: 1948 y 5 m 14 d = May 14, 1948 On May 14, 1948, David Ben Gurion, citing the book of Ezekiel as his authority, proclaimed Israel as the new Jewish homeland. The nation Israel was reestablished on the very completion of this 360 year360 x 7 interval from the end of the "Servitude of the Nation" under Babylon. (Ezek 4 and Lev 26) Note: No year “0”. Dating went from 1 BC to 1 AD
The Desolations of Jerusalem If you start with the 3rd siege of Nebuchadnezzar, which began the "Desolations of Jerusalem" in 587 B.C., the seventy years of desolations ended in 518 B.C. Using August 16 (Julian) in the year 518 B.C. as the completion of the desolations of Jerusalem, then 360 years360 punishment x 7 converted to our Julian calendar then From: 518 y 8 m 16 d BC Duration: 2483 y 9 m 21 d (2,520 years360) Adjusting: 1 y (See note below - no "year 0") Brings us to: 1967 y 6 m 7 d = June 7, 1967. On June 7, 1967, as a result of the "Six Day War," the Old City of Jerusalem again came under Israeli control. The ancient punishment of Israel know as the “Desolations of Jerusalem” ended. The 2,520 years360 were accomplished. . (Ezek 4 and Lev 26) Note: No year “0”. Dating went from 1 BC to 1 AD
