Yep ehehe.

Ezekiel [and Daniel] are a challenge to read.....they go together with Revelation like white on rice.......

YLT)
Ezekiel 1
1 And it cometh to pass, in the thirtieth year, in the fourth [month], in the fifth of the month,
and I [am] in the midst of the Removed by the river Chebar, the heavens have been opened, and I see visions of Elohiym.
2 In the fifth of the month — it is the fifth year of the removal of the king Jehoiachin —
3 hath the word of Jehovah certainly been unto Ezekiel son of Buzi the priest, in the land of the Chaldeans, by the river Chebar,
and there is on him there a hand of Yahweh.

Stoning of Stephen against the Law
Stoning of Stephen against the Law

Acts 7:
56 and said, "Look! I see the heavens having been opened and the Son of the Man standing out of rights of the God!"
59 And they stoned Stephen, calling upon [the Lord], and saying, "Lord Jesus, receive my spirit"

Revelation 19:11
And I saw the heaven being opened/anewgmenon <455> (5772) and behold!
A white horse and the One sitting on it being called Faithful and True.
And in justice He is judging and battling.

Antiochus Epiphanes sacrificing a pig on the alter in the Temple in Macabbean times was an abomination of desolation.
The Roman soldiers under Titus in 70 AD carrying their standards into the Temple and destroying it was an abomination of desolation (and I think that was the one warned about in Olivet Discourse - and parallels Luke's 'when you see Jerusalem surrounded by armies') .
But I don't know if Revelation records an abomination of desolation.

I don't think Revelation had to speak of the abomination that caused desolation, since Revelation picks up Matthew's prophecy, and adds to it, after the fact. Because Revelation gathers all of the prophetic loose-ends, otherwise, Revelation 22:11 would have no meaning.

The testimony of Jesus is the spirit of prophecy. And Jesus taught the Kingdom Gospel to correct the erring believer, just as prophecy is invariably meant to do. You are essentially correct about the abomination that causes the desolation, IMHO.

But Josephus seems to think that the temple fell because they killed James the Just, as well as because the rebels wouldn't stop to think about what the consequences of their actions must be. A very bad element will choose for their followers the death that only they themselves deserve. Josephus says the leaders wouldn't let them go, when the Romans offered it. This is not a singular incident in their history, since R. Wise did the same thing to them in the great war. The cause of the desolation was at least twofold: They made a ruling heathen mad at them--which extended to their religion, and the "spiritual" leaders had become none other than the worthless shepherd.

The first prophets, as well as Jesus, say that bad shepherds feed themselves (and follow their own agendas) at the cost of the lives of the sheep. And so, the hirelings of John 10:12-13 are become the worthless shepherd in Zechariah 11:15-17.

I hear there are no vacancies left at those ehehe


The military of the king of the north stationed in Jerusalem has fallen dead and Jerusalem has been taken by the beast.The two witnesses lay dead in the street.
How does the king of the north order his armed forces to respond?

http://biblehub.com/daniel/11-31.htm

Keep in mind.He wants to inihalate many.What device shouldhe use to cause desolation and destruction?

http://biblehub.com/daniel/11-44.htm


What would you order your armed forces to use to cause desolation?

and Revelation 12, the Virtuous Woman (= true spiritual Israel remnant amongst whom the Messiah was born, amidst whom Jesus ministered, and from whom came the original Jewish Apostles & Disciples who started the Church) flees to the Wilderness for 1260 days ?

Cp. Christians fled to Pella during the siege of Jerusalem in 70 AD

I don't think that the 1260 days are meant to match either the 3 1/2 years or the 42 months. Time is a funny thing in prophecy. IMHO, the timestamp is not the thing to be followed, but the thing that says you are there. I think the same thing about the Name, Mark, and Number... the number being the verification, rather than the object of the search.

And the fact is that God has hidden them for their protection, on that dark day when they too were lost. The Lost Sheep of the House of Israel and the Lost Sheep of the House of Judah/Benjamin, are blended with the gentiles, so that nobody knows who they are... which is the reason that the beast has to mark his own followers, so that he can find the ones he came here to destroy. He will spend 5 months making these marks, IMHO.

Interesting. I love war strategy games.

I thought it would be wise to look up "king/s of the north and south:

Kings of the North is only shown in 4 verses.
"kings" AND "of" AND "north"occurs 17 times in 4 verses

Jeremiah 25:26
all the kings of the north, far and near, one with another; and all the kingdoms of the world which are on the face of the earth.
Also the king of Sheshach[fn] shall drink after them.

Jeremiah 50:41
“Behold, a people shall come from the north,
And a great nation and many kings
Shall be raised up from the ends of the earth.

Ezekiel 26:7
“For thus says the Lord GOD: ‘Behold, I will bring against Tyre from the north Nebuchadnezzar[fn] king of Babylon, king of kings,
with horses, with chariots, and with horsemen, and an army with many people.

Genesis 1:1 (NKJV)
"king" AND "of" AND "north" occurs 63 times in 12 verses phrase "kings of north" is used, it is used and astounding 8 times in Daniel all in chapter 11!

The 4 verses outside of Daniel again mentions the King of Babylon:

Jeremiah 25:
9 ‘behold, I will send and take all the families of the north,' says the LORD, ‘and Nebuchadnezzar the king of Babylon, My servant............
26
all the kings of the north, far and near, one with another; and all the kingdoms of the world which are on the face of the earth. Also the king of Sheshach[fn] shall drink after them.

Ezekiel 26:7
“For thus says the Lord GOD: ‘Behold, I will bring against Tyre from the north Nebuchadnezzar[fn] king of Babylon,......

I will just mention the 1st and last verses for Daniel, as one can use a concordance to see the rest of them. Interesting

Genesis 1:1 (NKJV)

NKJV)

Daniel 11:
6 “And at the end of some years they shall join forces, for the daughterof the king of the South shall go to the king of the North to make an agreement; but she shall not retain the power of her authority,[fn] and neither he nor his authority[fn] shall stand; but she shall be given up, with those who brought her, and with him who begot her, and with him who strengthened her in those times.
40
“At the time of the end the king of the South shall attack him; and the king of the North shall come against him like a whirlwind, with chariots, horsemen, and with many ships; and he shall enter the countries, overwhelm them, and pass through.

Genesis 1:1 (NKJV)
king north south

These two countries has several wars before the time of the end.

And those wars were even before this man became president.

Daniel 11:31 His forces will rise up and desecrate the temple fortress. They will abolish the daily sacrifice and set up the abomination of desolation.

So ,what would a king order his armed forces to use if he wanted to make Jerusalem or any other city desolate?
Back in those days? Battering rams and catapults.....

The Destruction of Jerusalem - George Peter Holford, 1805AD

As a consequence, the legions were able to build their redoubts almost without any trouble; soon, their catapults started to throw heavy stones into the city.
Under cover of this artillery fire, the Roman soldiers could start to bash the northern wall with their battering-rams..................

In executing the command of Titus, relative to the demolition of Jerusalem, the Roman soldiers not only threw down the buildings, but even dug up their foundations, and so completely levelled the whole circuit of the city, that a stranger would scarcely have known that it had ever been inhabited by human beings....................

Revelation 6:6
And I hear a voice in midst of the four living-ones saying: "choinex of grain/wheat a denarius and three choinex of barleys a denarius, and the oil and the wine no you should be injuring". [John 11:48]

Revelation 16:21
And great Hail as a talent-weight is descending out of the Heaven upon the men.
And the men blaspheme the God out of the blow of the Hail, that great is the blow of it/her, tremendous.

==================================
This vid shows the battering rams and catapults.......

The Abomination of Desolation has to always be applied to the Temple of Worship.

John is given the Revelation by Jesus, within a post Pentecost Blood Covenant Temple context. The only individual (Head of a given Church denomination) and individuals (within Church assemblies), that can bring in the Abomination of Desolation are professing believers, within the Church establishments and assemblies.

The Man of Sin, is the Son of Perdition and this term applies to the EVEN HIM (head of the denominational Church) and to also the professing believers within the Church establishment. They in the Plural sense of the word Anthropos (Man/Peoples) of Sin are like the Judas Iscariots', who violate the Blood Covenant and sell out Jesus Christ. These sons and daughters of Perdition cannot be from outside of the Church Establishment.

You see, the Daily Sacrifice, within the Spiritual Temple Worship Context, are as Living Stones, bringing in sacrifices to God and they for that matter, are the only ones that can bring in, or to introduce the Abomination of Desolation, in place of the Daily Sacrifice.

So what is the Daily Sacrifice for that matter?

A Living Sacrifice

Therefore, I urge you, brothers and sisters, in view of God’s mercy, to offer your bodies as a living sacrifice, holy and pleasing to God—this is your true and proper worship. Do not conform to the pattern of this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind. Then you will be able to test and approve what God’s will is—his good, pleasing and perfect will. (Romans 12:1-2)

Our bodies, which is the Temple of God, are where our wills unite with God, so to present our Living Bodies as daily sacrifices to God, pleasing and conforming to his will. We become the Living Stones within the Temple of the Holy Spirit (Post Pentecost Context).

Unbelievers, CANNOT introduce in place of the Daily Sacrifice The Abomination of Desolation, because only those who knew the truth, claimed to be in Christ Jesus and became delusional, in that they had pleasure in unrighteousness and served a lie.

So what is the lie that is being served?

It goes back to the lie in the Garden, where man was deceived to serve man, rather than to serve God. The ecumenical headway that is made, both religiously and legislatively is to abandon God's objective moral laws and to conform to the trending ways of the world and to serve the Creature, rather than to serve the Creator. The progressive Liberal Theological movement and its Ecumenical head (EVEN HIM), has been instrumental in setting up the pieces for the "Falling Away"from the faith in Christ Jesus.

The Black Dragon of Apostasy is being revealed slowly and now, we have many Sons of Perdition manifesting within the Church Establishment, claiming to be of God, but denying the authority of God (Jesus Christ) altogether.

Are we here yet?

These prophesies have nothing to do with the 1st Century Church.

Matt and Mar both mention both Daniel and the AoD in all the NT which I find rather perplexing seeing as how this has perplexed many Christian theologians over the centuries.
However, by looking at the divine Greek, I was able to see that the exact form of "reading<314>" used in the 2 Gospel chapters is used in only 1 other verse in the NT:

Genesis 1:1 (NKJV)
G314 ἀναγινώσκω ἀναγινώσκων — 3x

Matthew 24:15
"Whenever then ye may be seeing the abomination of the desolation, the being declared thru Daniel the Prophet having-stood in a place, holy (the one-reading/anaginwskwn <314> (5723) let him be understanding"
[Mark 13:14]

Revelation 1:3
Happy/blessed the one reading/ana-ginwskwn <314> (5723) and the ones hearing the words of the prophecy and keepings the in it having been written for the time nigh.

Luke doesn't mention the AoD but rather the Jerusalem encompassed by armies....
However, the same exact form of the word "written<1125>" is shown in only 1 verse of Revelation, Revelation 1:3....fascinating.......

Luke 21:
20 “But when you see Jerusalem surrounded by armies, then know that its desolation is near.
22 That days of vengeance/out-justing these are, of the to be filled all the having been written/gegrammena <1125> (5772).

Revelation 1:3
Blessed the one reading/anaginwskwn <314> (5723), and the ones hearing, the Words of the Prophecy, and keepings in it/her having been written/gegrammena <1125> (5772), for the Time Is-Near/egguV <1451>.

Luke 21:
20 “But when you see Jerusalem surrounded by armies, then know that its desolation is near.
24“And they will fall by the edge of the sword, and be led away captive into all nations.
And Jerusalem will be trampled by Gentiles until the times of the Gentiles are fulfilled.

Revelation 11:2
and the Court/aulhn <833> the without of the Sanctuary, be Casting-Out! out-side, and thou mayest not be measuring it,
that it was given to the nations.
And the holy city they shall be trampling forty and two months

Genesis 1:1 (NKJV)

2050. eremosis er-ay'-mo-sis from 2049;
despoliation:--desolation.
G2050 matches the Greek ἐρήμωσις (erēmōsis), occurs 3 times in 3 verses

Matthew 24:15
“Therefore when you see the ‘abomination of one desolating/ desolation<2050>,’[fn] spoken of by Daniel the prophet, standing in the holy place” (whoever reads, let him understand),
Mark 13:14
“So when you see the ‘abomination of one desolating/desolation<2050>,’[fn] spoken of by Daniel the prophet,[fn] standing where it ought not” (let the reader understand), “then let those who are in Judea flee to the mountains.
Luke 21:20
“But when you see Jerusalem surrounded by armies, then know that its desolation<2050> is near.

Then there is this other form used in just 5 verses of the NT,
1 each in Matt and Luk and 3 times in Revelation

2049. eremoo er-ay-mo'-o from 2048;
to lay waste (literally or figuratively):--(bring to, make) desolate(-ion), come to nought.

Mathew 12:25
But Jesus knew their thoughts, and said to them: “Every kingdom divided against itself is brought to desolation<2048>, and every city or house divided against itself will not stand
Luke 11:17
But He, knowing their thoughts, said to them: “Every kingdom divided against itself is brought to desolation<2048>, and a house divided against a house falls.

It appears the 10 horns/kings are gentile nations that desolate Jerusalem in 70ad.
Could be the Romans plus other Gentiles?

Revelation 17:16
“And the ten horns which you saw on[fn] the beast, these will hate the harlot,
make Her desolate<2048> and naked, eat her flesh and burn her with fire.
Revelation 18:
17 ‘For in one hour such great riches came to nothing<2048>.’ Every shipmaster, all who travel by ship, sailors, and as many as trade on the sea, stood at a distance
19 “They threw dust on their heads and cried out, weeping and wailing, and saying, ‘Alas, alas, that great City, in which all who had ships on the sea became rich by her wealth! For in one hour She is made desolate<2048>.

Then there is #g2048:

2048. eremos er'-ay-mos of uncertain affinity;
lonesome, i.e. (by implication) waste (usually as a noun, 5561 being implied):--
desert, desolate, solitary, wilderness.

Matthew 23:38
“See! Your house is left to you desolate<2048>;
Luke 13:35
“See! Your house is left to you desolate<2048>;

You can see the other 3 forms used in Revelation here:

"BEHOLD! YOUR HOUSE IS LEFT TO YE DESOLATE/A WILDERNESS!"

It is not difficult to find the abomination in Revelation - even thought it is not mentioned in so many words. We know from other scriptures, and from Jesus, that those in Judea will flee when they see the abomination - and we see their fleeing in Rev. 12:6. We also know from other scriptures that the abomination will divide the week into two halves. Since John mentions the half-week period of time 5 different times in chapters 11 - 13, we can be assured the abomination is somewhere in these three chapters.

Since the fleeing in in chapter 12, that rules out chapter 13 Therefore we know it must be in 11 or 12. But since the fleeing is in verse 6, and verses 1-5 are on a different subject, that leaves the midpoint ONLY in chapter 11. I maintain that the 7th trumpet will sound in heaven to mark the very moment the man of sin enters the temple and declares he is the God of the Jews.

given Roman imperial influence in the region at the time, worth noting Julius Caesar is famous for saying "divide and conquer" ?

Paul was good at that concerning the corrupt Judean rulers LOL....

The chief priests and sadducees were cohorts and wanted to kill Lazarus:

John 12:10
10 and the chief priests took counsel, that also Lazarus they may kill,
11 because on account of him many of the Jews were going away, and were believing in Jesus.

Acts 23:
6 But perceiving that one group were Sadducees and the other Pharisees, Paul began crying out in the [fn]Council, “Brethren, I am a Pharisee, a son of Pharisees; I am on trial for the hope and resurrection of the dead!”
7 As he said this, there occurred a dissension between the Pharisees and Sadducees, and the assembly was divided.
8 For the Sadducees say that there is no resurrection, nor an angel, nor a spirit, but the Pharisees acknowledge them all.

LUKE 16:
30 "And he said, 'No, father Abraham; but if one goes to them from the dead, they will repent.'
31 But he said to him, 'If they do not hear Moses and the prophets, neither will they be persuaded though one rise from the dead.' "

Divide and rule - Wikipedia

Divide and rule (from Latin dīvide et imperā), or divide and conquer, in politics and sociology is gaining and maintaining power by breaking up larger concentrations of power into pieces that individually have less power than the one implementing the strategy. The concept refers to a strategy that breaks up existing power structures, and especially prevents smaller power groups from linking up, causing rivalries and fomenting discord among the people. It was heavily used by British Empire in India and elsewhere.[1]

Paul was good at that concerning the corrupt Judean rulers LOL....

The chief priests and sadducees were cohorts and wanted to kill Lazarus:

John 12:10
10 and the chief priests took counsel, that also Lazarus they may kill,
11 because on account of him many of the Jews were going away, and were believing in Jesus.

Acts 23:

Something these 2 verses have in common is the both used exact form of the greek words for "reading" and "written" seen in Revelation 1:3

Matthew 24:15 Interlinear:

Matthew 24:15
`Whenever then ye may be seeing the abomination of the desolating, the being declared thru Daniel the prophet, having-stood in a place, holy
(the one-reading/anaginwskwn <314> (5723) let him be understanding) [Mark 13:14]

Luke 21:22 Interlinear:

Luke 21:22
That days of vengeance these are, of the to be filled all the having been written/gegrammena <1125> (5772).

Revelation 1:3 Interlinear:

Greek Concordance: ἀναγινώσκων (anaginōskōn) -- 3 Occurrences
ἀναγινώσκων (anaginōskōn) — 3 Occurrences

Revelation 1:3
Blessed the one reading/anaginwskwn <314> (5723), and the ones hearing, the Words of the Prophecy,
and keepings in it having been written/gegrammena <1125> (5772),
for the Time Is Nigh<1451>.

==================================
and keepings in it having been written/gegrammena <1125> (5772), for the Time Is Nigh<1451>.

It is interesting to see where "having been written" γεγραμμένα is used in the rest of the NT


Greek Concordance: γεγραμμένα (gegrammena) -- 7 Occurrences


Luke 18:31 V-RPM/P-NNP

γεγραμμένα (gegrammena) — 7 Occurrences

Luke 18:31 V-RPM/P-NNP
INT: all things which having been written by the
Luke 21:22 V-RPM/P-ANP
INT: all things that have been written
Luke 24:44 V-RPM/P-ANP
INT: all things that have been written in the

John 12:16 V-RPM/P-NNP
INT: of him written and these things
John 20:30 V-RPM/P-NNP
INT: not are written in the

Acts 13:29 V-RPM/P-ANP
INT: concerning him had been written having taken [him] down from

Revelation 1:3 V-RPM/P-ANP
