In order to understand this prophecy one must recognize the day for a year principle. 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. Know therefore and understand, from the going forth of the commandment to restore and to build Jerusalem unto the Messiah the Prince seven weeks, and threescore and two weeks: the street shall be built again, and the wall, even in troublous times.Īnd after threescore and two weeks shall Messiah be cut off, but not for himself: and the people of the prince that shall come shall destroy the city and the sanctuary and the end thereof with a flood, and unto the end of the war desolations are determined. The following two paragraphs describe a symbolic time which is the one alluded to in Mark 1:15 and Galatians 4:4 Seventy Weeks are Determinedĭaniel 9: 24-27 states, “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. It is important to know in both Daniel and Revelation there is much symbolism and some of it relates to time. In view of the above two texts a major question is are there any significant time periods mentioned in the Bible? The answer is yes. Two texts with potent meanings are: “The time is fulfilled, and the kingdom of God is at hand: repent ye, and believe the gospel.” Mark 1:15 and “when the fulness of the time was come, God sent forth his Son, made of a woman, made under the law” Gal.4:4. So we need to look at one of His prophecies. One of the most important ways to prove the Bible is true and that He can predict the future is to note His claim as follows: “I God, and none else God, and none like me, declaring the end from the beginning, and from ancient times that are not done.“ Isa.46:9,10.
