That is irrelevant.John was in the wilderness, the Jordan river, not Jerusalem.
It talks about the rebuilding of Jerusalem but it does not say that "unto Messiah" has to do with the Messiah being revealed in Jerusalem. That is your ASSUMPTION.The prophecy in Daniel 9:25 is to take place in Jerusalem, as that is what the 70 weeks are appointed to in Daniel 9:24 in the text.
Again, it does not say "unto the revealing of the Messiah in Jerusalem". You are adding that to the text. Where He was first revealed is not relevant to the prophecy.The center of activity for the prophecies in Daniel 9:24 is Jerusalem.
24 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.
.
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.
