Talk:Daniel 9

We believe in the imminent return of our Lord for His saints The Rapture

to be followed by a period of judgment The Great Tribulation

and then His final return to Earth with His saints

to Rule and reign for 1000 years (The Millennium).

The focus of the prophecy is the nation of Israel and the city of Jerusalem.

• “Finish the transgression”
• “Make an end of sin”
• “Make atonement for iniquity”
• “Bring in everlasting righteousness”
• “Seal up vision and prophecy”
• “Anoint the most holy place”

Millennial Temple described in Ezekiel 40-48

The prophecy says that the starting point of the 70 weeks of years

will be “the issuing of a decree to restore and rebuild Jerusalem” (Daniel 9.25).

the first remnant of Jews were allowed to return to Jerusalem in 536 BC under Zerubbabel.

Jerusalem was in ruins, having been destroyed by Nebuchadnezzar in 586 BC

The captivity began in 605 BC, before the destruction of Jerusalem,

when Nebuchadnezzar took Daniel and other “youths” to Babylon — Daniel 1.1-4.)

538 BC — Cyrus, King of Persia, issued a decree to Zerubbabel

to rebuild the Temple in Jerusalem (2 Chronicles 36.22-23; Ezra 1.1-3; and Ezra 6.1-5)

457 BC — Artaxerxes, King of Persia,

issued a decree to Ezra authorizing him to reinstitute the Temple services,

appoint judges and magistrates, and teach the Law (Ezra 7.11-26)

445 BC — Artaxerxes issued a decree to Nehemiah

to rebuild the walls of Jerusalem (Nehemiah 2.1-8).

Jesus will come the first time at the end of 483 years

ca 31 AD and will be “cut off”

a covenant with the Jewish people that allows them to rebuild their Temple

and will enable them to reinstitute their sacrificial system

ca 20?? +3.5

ca 20?? +7 Jesus will return the second time at the end of a seven year period

Moses said it would be a time of “distress”

that would occur in “the latter days” (Deuteronomy 4.30).

Jeremiah called it “the time of Jacob’s distress” (Jeremiah 30.7).

Daniel characterized it as “a time of distress such as never occurred

since there was a nation until that time” (Daniel 12.1).

Zechariah says two-thirds of the Jews will “be cut off and perish”

during that terrible time (Zechariah 13.8).
