It was God's command that Jerusalem should be rebuilt.
It was through Cyrus that the command was issued.
- Isaiah 44:24 Thus saith the LORD, thy redeemer, and he that formed thee from the womb, I am the LORD that maketh all things; that stretcheth forth the heavens alone; that spreadeth abroad the earth by myself;
- 25 That frustrateth the tokens of the liars, and maketh diviners mad; that turneth wise men backward, and maketh their knowledge foolish;
- 26 That confirmeth the word of his servant, and performeth the counsel of his messengers; that saith to Jerusalem, Thou shalt be inhabited; and to the cities of Judah, Ye shall be built, and I will raise up the decayed places thereof:
Cyrus understood this.
- Isaiah 44:27 That saith to the deep, Be dry, and I will dry up thy rivers:
- 28 That saith of Cyrus, He is my shepherd, and shall perform all my pleasure: even saying to Jerusalem, Thou shalt be built; and to the temple, Thy foundation shall be laid.
- Ezra 1:2 Thus saith Cyrus king of Persia, The LORD God of heaven hath given me all the kingdoms of the earth; and he hath charged me to build him an house at Jerusalem, which is in Judah.

“... as Young points out, the word ‘sevens’ is in the masculine plural instead of the usual feminine plural. No clear explanation is given except that Young feels ‘it was for the deliberate purpose of calling attention to the fact that the word “sevens” is employed in an unusual sense.’”
“...Young finally concludes after some discussion that Keil and Kliefoth are correct when they hold that the word ‘sevens’ does not necessarily mean year-weeks, but an intentionally indefinite designation of a period of time
No! They're holding on to the FACTS, even though they haven't been able figure out the significance.
... or certainly discount HIS text ...... we can "delete his text" until he says "airplane" or "rocket"????
... or ~helicopter, ~tank, ~computer, or any other depictions which ARE FOUND IS SCRIPTURE, because obviously those "literal" terms are not found in Scripture.... we can "delete his text" until he says "airplane" or "rocket"????
I can only tell you what Scripture actually says. If you like the lies of the commentators, then good luck. -- But it's hard to build a house on sand.Looks like guesswork piled into creative-writing.

Are there two of you? There must be, because I'm getting answers to issues that haven't even been raised.... In Real life - all Bible timelines are contiguous as Daniel 9:1-4 points out.

The fact that the building was stalled is not a valid point as it was the the publication of God's command that was the starting point of the 70 weeks,
... when God says "knowledge shall be increased and men shall run to and fro" we can "delete his text" until he says "airplane" or "rocket"????
I choose the Bible.
See, -- I think there's two of you because one says to "delete his text", and the other says "I choose the Bible".
Well I'm glad to finally clear that up, and that all three of us agree.One says it is foolish to delete God's text on such a flimsy excuse as "we did not find the word AIRPLANE in the Bible" -- and then says "I choose the Bible".
Real life matters.
Well I'm glad to finally clear that up, and that all three of us agree.
Do you think we can convince others that Scripture does not have to say ~mass transit~ for us to believe that Daniel is depicting the end times?
Daniel 12:4 ... Many shall run to and fro, and knowledge shall increase.”
... and also do you think we should perceive that computers are cited in this verse, and is included in the calculation used to identify the a/c?
Rev. 13:18 This calls for wisdom: let him who has understanding reckon the number of the beast, for it is a human number, its number is six hundred and sixty-six.
... which would cover BOTH of Daniel's references?
Great to hear.Indeed I do think that.
"cited"?? I think you are mixing your metaphors.
Using the SAME methodology to "calculate" the number of the a/c's name, you can sum "Computer" to 666. -- And it's not a "coincidence".Computers are not mentioned in Rev 13.
Is this the "other" guy again? I wish the two of you were "on the same page". -- Would you please send the first guy back?Which does not mean that computers cannot exist - but Rev 13 is not talking about computers.
Exactly the angel's reference.on the other hand your reference to -- Daniel 12:4 ... Many shall run to and fro, and knowledge shall increase.” Could indeed "include" the technology that we have in computer science.
Daniel 12:4 ... and knowledge shall increase.”
What makes this possible without computers and the internet?
Great to hear.

Furthermore "binary" in-and-of-itself appears to validate the Rev. 13 premise and methodology.
