Most
Bible scholars agree that from the commandment of Artaxerxes in
457 BC to rebuild Jerusalem
and the Temple (Ezr 7:11 -
28), until the baptism of our
Lord is 69 weeks or 483 years. Which
leaves one prophetic week or 7 years, here's where the debates and
false doctrines abound. With a little margin
for error on either
side you
have your 70 weeks or 7×70=490 years. 457
BC to 34 AD is 490 Years. I
believe the 70 weeks ended with the stoning (and biting) of Stephen
in approx 34AD. Half way
through the 70th
week the Lord was crucified for us, and after His Resurrection and
ascendance to Heaven His disciples continued to preach the Gospel to
the Children of Israel until the murder of Stephen (Act
7:54-60). Thenceforth, Peter
received from the Lord to preach
to the
gentiles (Act 10:34-48), and Saul converted
on the road to Damascus (Act 9:3-9) and also preached to the Gentiles.
40 years later, like the time
in the desert, the
destruction and desolation of the Temple and Jerusalem began. It
was indeed the end of physical Israel. The Israel of God from then on
was comprised of believers,
whether they be natural, or grafted in roots into the spiritual olive
tree representing
Israel (Rom
11).
Dan
9:27 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, and for the overspreading of
abominations he shall make it
desolate, even until the consummation, and that determined shall be
poured upon the desolate.
“And
he shall confirm the covenant with many for one week ...” He, is
Jesus Christ, many believe the he is “antichrist” but that is
demonstrably false. Christ confirms the New Covenant or Testament,
with His blood:
Mat
26:28 For this is my blood of the new testament, which is shed for
many for the remission of sins.
Dan
9:27 … and in the midst of the week he
shall cause the sacrifice and the oblation to cease …
His
death on the cross officially caused the end to animal
sacrificial atonement of
sin, although God had told the children
of Israel long before He was not pleased with their animal
sacrifices.
1Sa
15:22 And Samuel said, Hath the LORD as
great
delight in burnt offerings and sacrifices, as in obeying the voice of
the LORD? Behold, to obey is
better than sacrifice, and
to hearken than the fat of rams.
Isa
1:11 To what purpose is
the multitude of your sacrifices unto me? saith the LORD: I am full
of the burnt offerings of rams, and the fat of fed beasts; and I
delight not in the blood of bullocks, or of lambs, or of he goats.
Hos
6:6 For I desired mercy, and not sacrifice; and the knowledge
of God more than burnt offerings.
Mat
9:13 But go ye and learn what that
meaneth, I will have mercy,
and not sacrifice: for I am not come to call the righteous, but
sinners to repentance.
Dan
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.
For
the evil done by the Children of Israel, culminating in the
Crucifixion of Jesus Christ, the wrath of God falls upon that final
generation of the physical seed of Abraham:
Mat
23:29-38
Woe
unto you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! because ye build the
tombs of the prophets, and garnish the sepulchres of the righteous,
And
say, If we had been in the days of our fathers, we would not have
been partakers with them in the blood of the prophets.
Wherefore
ye be witnesses unto yourselves, that ye are the children of them
which killed the prophets.
Fill
ye up then the measure of your fathers.
Ye
serpents,
ye
generation
of vipers, how can ye escape the damnation of hell?
Wherefore,
behold, I send unto you prophets, and wise men, and scribes: and
some
of
them ye shall kill and crucify; and
some
of
them shall ye scourge in your synagogues, and persecute
them
from
city to city:
That
upon you may come all the righteous blood shed upon the earth, from
the blood of righteous Abel unto the blood of Zacharias son of
Barachias, whom ye slew between the temple and
the altar.
Verily
I say unto you, All these things shall come upon this generation.
O
Jerusalem, Jerusalem,
thou
that
killest the prophets, and stonest them which are sent unto thee, how
often would I have gathered thy children together, even as a hen
gathereth her chickens under
her
wings,
and ye would not!
Behold,
your house is left unto you desolate.
Jesus
spoke of it even more specifically in other verses:
Luk
21:20-22 And when ye shall see Jerusalem compassed with
armies, then know that the desolation thereof is nigh. Then let them
which are in Judaea flee to the mountains; and let them which are in
the midst of it depart out; and let not them that are in the
countries enter thereinto. For these be the days of vengeance, that
all things which are written may be fulfilled.
As
you study the 70th
Week, and what is taught today, you'll see the 70th
week delusion ties in to all the other false doctrines, and has a
common thread, to diminish the work of Jesus Christ on the cross, and
to establish that God still owes something to the physical
descendents of
Abraham.
For
further detail on this click here.
The physical
descendents of Abraham and their “Christian” Zionist supporters
say they have a “Special relationship”, or there's two separate
Covenants, one for them, one for everybody else. They say the 70th
week was suspended until the end time, and then there is either a
pre, mid or post return of Jesus during the final 7 years of
tribulation. The common theme is again God owes them still more,
regardless of their lack of faith and disobedience, of course it's
false doctrines. Invented, perverted Judiazation of the Bible. It all ties together, if they accepted the truth of
Daniel 9 they would have to admit that the Messiah, Jesus Christ
already came, and they rejected Him and had Him put to death like the
prophets before Him.
It's way past time
to get real here, face the Biblical truth. Not believing on Jesus and
disobedience of His Commandments will get you a one way ticket to the
Lake of Fire, not an all expense paid homeland. I have said this
before and say it again now: What part of Jesus Christ is the Seed of
Abraham (Gal 3:16) don't you understand?
Daniel Mark
