It is adding to scripture. No mention of Antichrist so that is adding.
No, you add to scripture in many instances, I never would do that, you not understanding the passage doesn't mean others are adding, as a matter of fact well over 90 percent of Christendom sees that passage as the Anti-Christ because that is who it is.
I gave a timeline, 7 weeks 49 years for the temple to be completed, from the Cyrus published God's decree, then 69 weeks till the anointing of Jesus at his baptism, then 3½ weeks of his ministry till he was cut off. halfway through the seventy weeks. The ECF recognised that, so they were left with 3½ weeks which they didn't know what to do with, however the answer is that the covenant ministry continued to be Jews till the conversion of Cornelius, when it was no longer a fully Jewish covenant but was open to all believers.
That is the logical and literal understanding.
Its given in THREE TIMELINES and you can't grasp its about three time periods !! Have you ever really pondered why its given as three prophecies? A 49 years Prophecy, a 434 year prophecy and a 7 year prophecy.
So its not 69 Weeks per se, and that is why the Prophecy states its a 7 week AND and 62 week, or in other words BOTH PROPHECIES have to come to pass, then a THIRD PROPHECY has to come to pass.
25 Know therefore
and understand, that from the going forth of the commandment to restore and to build Jerusalem unto the Messiah the Prince shall be
seven weeks, and threescore and two weeks: the
street shall be built again, and the wall, even in troublous times.
Nowhere does it say or imply these prophetic events have to be back to back, that is coming from you and others in your ilk, sorry, its just not factual, else it would have just been a 70 Week Event Prophecy. I think the first 69 weeks are back to back, but its still separate prophecies,we had 7x7 which is the first marker, the wall/city of Jerusalem is rebuilt, from Cyrus' order until completion. Then it was 62 weeks or 334 years until Messiah was CUT OFF/Killed/Sacrificed.
The Church Age is thus instituted, God sees Israel as Dead Men's Bones just like Ezekiel Prophesied. He planed all along on reviving those Dead Men's Bones and He did just that in 1948.But the final Week is not about the time period from 1948 until the Rapture, that is still the "Time of the Gentiles" the FINAL WEEK will not start until the Rapture happens and Israel enters into a Peace Plan with the European Anti-Christ, then in the MIDDLE OF THE WEEK, he reneges on all of his bogus promises.
Daniel 8:24 And his power shall be mighty,
but not by his own power: and he shall destroy wonderfully, and shall prosper, and practise, and shall
destroy the mighty and the holy people.
25 And through his policy also he shall cause craft to prosper in his hand; and he shall magnify himself in his heart,
and by peace shall destroy many: he shall also stand up against the Prince of princes; but he shall be broken without hand.
In Rev. ch. 6 the Red Horse TAKES PEACE from the earth, inferring he came to power via PEACE.
So the STREET and the WALL she be built even in troubled times says Dan. 9:25, then the 62 weeks prophecy comes to pass.
AND the Final WEEK........7 YEARS, still awaits.
26
And after threescore and two weeks shall Messiah be cut off (NOT after 62 and 1/2 weeks NOT 2009 either !! ), but not for himself: and the
people (Romans FOURTH BEAST) of the
prince that shall come (Anti-Christ some 2000 odd years later = SHALL COME) shall
destroy the city and the sanctuary (70 AD Event); and the end thereof shall be with a flood, and unto the end of the war desolations are determined.
27
And he (SAME Anti-Christ) shall confirm the
covenant (AGREEMENT)with many for one week: and
in the midst of the week he shall cause the sacrifice and the oblation to cease (He stops Israel from Worshiping Jesus since they have already REPENTED), and for the overspreading of abominations he shall make it desolate, even until the consummation, and that determined shall be poured upon the desolate. (The ABOMINATION OF DESOLATION IS SET UP)
Some people just can't understand the Old English of the KJV, so I don't understand why they don't try other versions I understand the KJV fine but I admit it took much practice and study.
The 70 Weeks of Years (HCSB......Holman version)
Daniel 9:20 While I was speaking, praying, confessing my sin and the sin of my people Israel, and presenting my petition before Yahweh my God concerning the holy mountain of my God— 21 while I was praying, Gabriel, the man I had seen in the first vision, came to me in my extreme weariness, about the time of the evening offering. 22 He gave me this explanation:
“Daniel, I’ve come now to give you understanding. 23 At the beginning of your petitions an answer went out, and I have come to give it, for you are treasured by God. So consider the message and understand the vision:
24
Seventy weeks are decreed
about your people and your holy city— (Not about Jesus PER SE)
to
bring the rebellion to an end, ( Israel is still in REBELLION !! )
to
put a stop to sin, ( Israels sin REMAINS )
to wipe away iniquity, ( Israels INIQUITY REMAINS )
to bring in everlasting righteousness,
to seal up vision and prophecy,
and to anoint the most holy place.
25 Know and understand this:
From the issuing of the decree
to restore and rebuild Jerusalem
until Messiah the Prince
will be
seven weeks and 62 weeks.
It will be rebuilt with a plaza and a moat,
but in difficult times.
26
After those 62 weeks
the Messiah will be cut off ( Not after 62 1/2 weeks !! )
and will have nothing.
The
people (Romans) of the
coming prince (Anti-Christ)
will destroy the city and the sanctuary.
The end will come with a flood,
and until the end there will be war;
desolations are decreed.
27
He will make a firm covenant
with many for one week, (HELLO there is ONE WEEK LEFT !! 42 Months/1260..)
but in the
middle of the week (42 Months...1260...time, times and 1/2 time)
he will put a stop to sacrifice and offering.
And the abomination of desolation
will be on a wing of the temple
until the decreed destruction
is poured out on the desolator.”
The Anti-Christ places an IMAGE of himself in a WING of the Temple !!
Another thing is that the prince is not the subject of that verse, his people are. The prince does nothing in that prophecy, but to come. You have added a new character to the prophecy who does a number of things which are not in scripture.
The PRINCE that is to come is spoken of in verse 27. Remember, God is giving a Prophecy about Israel, Jerusalem and its inhabitants unto Daniel so that he may understand Jeremiahs prophetic uttering's.
Thus he tells him about the Wall being Built (7x7) Jesus dying (62x7 plus the 7x7) and about Israel making a PEACE DEAL with the Anti-Christ/Assyrian/Man of Sin/Little Horn in the Final Week of Israels Repentance Decree. I don't think Daniel is ever told there will be a 2000 some odd year Church Age, why would he be told that? The Prophecy is about ISRAEL....Thus the 2000 year SKIP, Israel is as Dead Men's Bones !! For 2000 years.
42 Months.......Middle of the WEEK......1260 Days........Time, times and 1/2 time.
Why do you think everything in Revelation/END TIMES is designed around a HALF A WEEK ? And this prince to come reneges on his deal in the MIDDLE OF THE WEEK.
The people of the price were to destroy the temple and sanctuary, they did and it is not there now. Or are you blind?
That is what I stated, the people (ROMANS) of the PRINCE TO COME (End Time PEACE MAKER, the Anti-Christ that makes a SEVEN YEAR PEACE DEAL). Where does the Anti-Christ arise from? The FOURTH BEAST !! Well of course he does. (ROME). He arises in the LATTER TIME from the Fourth Beast by way of one of the Four Generals.......Greece is where he HAS TO BE BORN. Greece is in the European Union. Nothing else fits. I have a blog on this.
You play fast and loose with scripture to fit your Darbyite ideas.
90 percent of Christendom agree with me on this.
Look at the scripture carefully.
- Daniel 9:26 And 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 shall be with a flood, and unto the end of the war desolations are determined.
1stly. he could not be cut off in 2000. I have heard that nonsense before. He was cut off after 69 weeks, what comes after 69? 70 of course. He was cut off in the 70th week, in the midst of the week, 3½ years after his baptism. In the midst of a prophetic week and also of the literal week.
69 WEEKS.............NOT 69 1/2 WEEKS !! There is a week left.
2ndly.
- 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.
The next thing you get wrong is that the prince who you say is still in the future, will carry out the events in verse 7, WRONG. As the prince is not the subject, the he must refer back to the last person mentioned, Messiah, the prince.
Wrong, the prince that is TO COME is the Anti-Christ in verse 26. Therefore the HE in verse 27 refers to the Anti-Christ also.
- Romans 15:8 Now I say that Jesus Christ was a minister of the circumcision for the truth of God, to confirm the promises made unto the fathers:
What promises could they be but the covenant. Christ confirmed the covenant.
Wrong, Abraham and God confirmed the Covenant via the PROMISE..........
P. S. this applies to post 85 also. Its the PROMISE. Abraham was counted as Righteous because he BELIEVED GOD !! Via the PROMISE !!
