THE 70 WEEKS OF YEARS OR THE 490 YEARS WOULD START FROM THE TIME THAT KING ARTEXERXES GAVE THE ORDER TO NEHEMIAH TO REBUILD JERUSALEM, the beginning of the deliverance from captivity NEHEMIAH 2 V 1-9 PLEASE NOTE THAT NEHEMIAH STARTED THE REBUILDING 173 YEARS AFTER DANIEL’S PROPHECY WAS MADE
(DANIEL 70 WEEKS)
AT THE END OF THE 490 YEARS THE MORAL HISTORY OF MANKIND WOULD BE CONSUMMATED. AT THE END OF THE 490 YEARS THERE WOULD BE THE FINISH OF TRANSGRESSION….ISRAEL IS UNDER A SINGLE TRANSGRESSION i.e. NOT ACCEPTING THE MESSIAH, THE WORLD TODAY AS WELL IS IN A SIMILAR STATE OF TRANSGRESSION IN NOT ACCEPTING JESUS CHRIST. “To finish transgression and to make an end to sin, and will bring in everlasting righteousness” UP TO THE 69 WEEKS THERE WILL BE THE REBUILDING OF THE TEMPLE IN JERUSALEM. HOWEVER THE 70TH WEEK APPLIES TO WHAT GOD WILL DO TO THE NATION OF ISRAEL. REMEMBER THE TEMPLE WAS FIRST BUILT BY KING SOLOMON, IT WAS DESTROYED 3 TIMES, BUT WILL FINALLY BE REBUILT NEVER TO BE DESTROYED AGAIN. TO THE PEOPLE OF ISRAEL THE TEMPLE WAS A REPRESENTATION OF GOD’S PRESENCE WITH THEM. HOWEVER DURING THESE 70 WEEKS THESE 490 YEARS SOME TIME DURING THIS PERIOD, GOD WOULD SEND A SPECIAL REPRESENTATIVE, HE WOULD SEND THE MESSIAH TO THE NATION OF ISRAEL. DANIEL 9 V 26 AFTER THREE SCORE AND TWO WEEKS (60+2 =62weeks or 434 years) MESSIAH WILL BE CUT OFF…IN OTHER WORDS AFTER (62+7= 69) WEEKS i.e. 483 YEARS…..FROM THE ORDER TO REBUILD JERUSALEM UNTIL THE CRUCIFIXION WAS exactly 483 YEARS. (CHRIST WOULD HAVE TO DIE FOR THE SINS OF THE WORLD Corinthians 5 v 21 ) TO THIS DAY, ISRAEL STUMBLES AT THE PREACHING OF THE CROSS, THERE IS A VEIL PULLED OVER THE EYES OF THE NATION OF ISRAEL ABOUT JESUS CHRIST AND HIS FINISHED WORK ON THE CROSS.
