Daniel 12:1 ..."time of distress..thy people escape..written in Book" Israel/Jerusalem/Judea

[LittleLambofJesus]

I want to explore the similarity between Daniel 12: and Luke 21:36 concerning the phrase "and thy people shall escape".

First, let's examine the word used for "escape" in the OT and NT.
Dan 12 is talking about Daniel and his people, the Southern Kingdom of the House of Judah, the Jews

4422 malat a primitive root;
properly, to be smooth, i.e. (by implication) to escape (as if by slipperiness); causatively, to release or rescue; specifically, to bring forth young, emit sparks:--deliver (self), escape, lay, leap out, let alone, let go, preserve, save, X speedily, X surely.

Daniel 12:1
"And in that time/season Michael shall stand-up, the great chief prince, the one standing over sons of thy people.
And a time of distress<06869>, which not occurred since to become of a nation until that time. And in that time, thy people shall escape<4422>, everyone being found written in the scroll. [Luke 21:23-36]

Jesus talking to His Disciples in the 70ad Jerusalem/Temple Discourse

Luke 21:
23 “But woe to those who are pregnant and to those who are nursing babies in those days! For there will be great distress in the land and wrath upon this people.

36 “Yet be being vigilant/watching in every season, beseeching that ye should be being strong to be escaping<1628> all these, the being about to be becoming,
and to stand before the Son of the Man.

1 Thessalonians 5:3
For when they say, “Peace and safety!” then sudden destruction comes upon them, as labor pains upon a pregnant woman. And they shall not escape<1628>.

1628. ek-pheugo from 1537 and 5343; to flee out:--escape, flee. [5343. pheugo fyoo'-go apparently a primary verb; to run away (literally or figuratively); by implication, to shun; by analogy, to vanish:--escape, flee (away).]

Daniel 12:1
"And in that time/season Michael shall stand-up, the great chief prince, the one standing over sons of thy people.
And a time of distress<06869>, which not occurred since to become of a nation until that time. And in that time, thy people shall escape<4422>, everyone being found written in the scroll. [Luke 21:23-36]

There is only 1 other verse in Daniel that uses the word for "escape".

And that is concerning the Great NORTH/SOUTH CIVIL WAR:

Daniel 10:1
In the third year of Cyrus king of Persia, a revelation was given to Daniel (who was called Belteshazzar). Its message was true and it concerned a great war/host<6635>. The understanding of the message came to him in a vision.

Daniel 11:41
“He shall also enter the Glorious Land, and many countries shall be overthrown; but these shall escape<4422> from his hand: Edom, Moab, and the prominent people of Ammon.

Daniel 10:1
In the third year of Cyrus king of Persia, a revelation was given to Daniel (who was called Belteshazzar). Its message was true and it concerned a great war/host<6635>. The understanding of the message came to him in a vision.
==================================
The more I look at Dan 10:1, the more it appears to resemble the great Armageddon/Gog-Magog war in Revelation.........
That Hebrew word #H6635 occurs in only 4 other verses in Daniel, all in Chapt 8.

6635 tsaba' tsaw-baw' or (feminine) tsbadah {tseb-aw-aw'}; from 6633;
a mass of persons (or figuratively, things), especially reg. organized for war (an army); by implication, a campaign, literally or figuratively (specifically, hardship, worship):--appointed time, (+) army, (+) battle, company, host, service, soldiers, waiting upon, war(-fare).

Daniel 8:
10 And it grew up to the host of heaven; and it cast down some of the host and some of the stars to the ground, and trampled them.
11 He even exalted himself as high as the Prince of the host; and by him the daily sacrifices were taken away, and the place of His sanctuary was cast down.
12 Because of transgression, an army was given over to the horn to oppose the daily sacrifices; and he cast truth down to the ground. He did all this and prospered.
13 Then I heard a holy one speaking; and another holy one said to that certain one who was speaking, “How long will the vision be, concerning the daily sacrifices and the transgression of desolation, the giving of both the sanctuary and the host to be trampled underfoot?”
===================
Sounds very similar to this event in Revelation. Amazing!

Rev 12:4
His tail drew a third of the stars of heaven and threw them to the land. And the dragon stood before the woman who was ready to give birth, to devour her Child as soon as it was born.

A Preterist commentary on Daniel 12 I ran across:

Daniel Chapter 12: A Preterist Commentary - Revelation Revolution

Daniel Chapter 12: A Preterist Commentary


The EXACT Fulfillment of the 1290 and 1335 Days Prophecy and More!

Daniel Chapter 12: A Preterist Commentary: Summary and Highlights
In the following preterist commentary on Daniel chapter 12, Daniel 12 is shown to have literally occurred in the first century. The 1,290 days prophecy of Daniel 12:11 correctly predicts that there would be 1,290 days between the termination of the regular sacrifice to Caesar in A.D. 66 to the arrival of the abomination that causes desolation (the Roman army and their abominable idols of Zeus, Caesar and Rome) at Jerusalem in Shabbat of A.D. 70. There were also 1335 days between the cessation of the regular sacrifice to Caesar and the beginning of the siege of Jerusalem.

There were also EXACTLY 1335 days from the 9th of Av in A.D. 70 when the Roman army worshipped the imago of the beast in the holy Temple to the first day of peace after the end of the Jewish War at the fall of Masada on Passover of A.D. 74. The reference to the time, times and half a time, or three and a half years, in Daniel 12:7 is the interval between the arrival of the Roman Army in Israel at the Feast of Tabernacles in A.D. 66 to the siege of Jerusalem on Passover of A.D. 70. The rise of Michael in Daniel 12:1 is described in Revelation 12:7-9. Here Michael and his angels fight against the Devil and his army. Was this war in heaven seen in the sky at the start of the Jewish revolt? Describing this war in heaven, Tacitus writes, “In the sky appeared a vision of armies in conflict, of glittering armour.”1

The following may seem unbelievable. However, all information is taken from unbiased historical records and is easily verifiable. Sources listed at the end.
