First of all I'm not a Dispensationalist.
From my understanding of dispensationalism, pre-mil is only non-disp if they believe there is no difference between the church and Israel and are post trib. This would be historic pre-mil. So if you believe there is no difference between the church and Israel and are post trib, I apologize for lumping you in with the disepensationalists (modern pre-mil).
This is the 70th week, all of it is referring to it. Which part of the above verse has a thing to do with what happened in 70 AD? That verse says---And he shall confirm the covenant with many for one week. Then it goes on to say of the person meant----and in the midst of the week he shall cause the sacrifice and the oblation to cease. That only accounts for half of the week though. What accounts for the remainder of the week then? How can it not be this----and for the overspreading of abominations he shall make it desolate, even until the consummation, and that determined shall be poured upon the desolate?
Just as you argue that a 2000+ year gap must be inserted between the 69th and 70th week, and ALL of daniel 9:27 must be fulfilled in the 70th week, I argue there is no gap between the 69th and 70th week. All of Daniel 9:24 is fulfilled within the 70 weeks and the gap is between the 70th week and the city and sanctuary destruction. There is no biblical teaching to put a gap within a time framed prophecy. There are gaps in prophecy, but not when the prophecy is limited to a time frame. If you care to share other prophecies that are given a specific time frame with large time gaps in between I'd be interested to see them.
And if I argue there is no gap between the 69th and 70th week, there must be a gap in between the 70th week and the city and temple being destroyed with abominations, as the city and sanctuary were not destroyed within 3.5 years of Christ being cut off. There are examples of prophecy, when not given a specific time frame, that have a gap. Therefore, it is more appropriate to insert a gap AFTER the 70 week prophecy and not within.
Of course I don't disagree with that, yet
Daniel 9:27 is not in regards to that though.
Ok, so we agree Christ's death took away the sin offering, good. I think it's interesting to note that the only other scriptures that discuss the taking away of the sacrifice use the hebrew word for "daily" (daniel 8, 11, 12), while daniel 9 specifically uses the hebrew words for sacrifice and offering. You would think that if daniel 9 was talking about the same thing, the hebrew word for "daily" would be there instead of "sacrifice" and offering".
Prove you are not cherry picking in verse 27 by showing which parts of verse 25 are not fulfilled during the first 69 weeks.
From the command to restore Jerusalem until the coming of anointed prince is 7 and 62 weeks
Daniel 9:25 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.
In what period of time is the city rebuilt in troubled times? during the 7 weeks? the 62? 69?
I would argue during the 7 weeks. the 62 weeks being the time between Jerusalem already rebuilt and the coming of Christ.
Does the messiah come within the 69 weeks? at the end? just after?
I would argue, when the 7 and 62 weeks end, the messiah comes.
What we do know, is the messiah is cut off AFTER the 69 weeks.
Daniel 9:26 And AFTER threescore and two weeks shall Messiah be cut off
Therefore the messiah is either cut off during the 70th week, as I would argue, or within a gap as you would argue. One cannot deny the hebrew word for "after"
My point is, if some of what is in verse 27 can happen outside of that week, then the same should be true of verse 25, that some of the things in that verse can happen outside of the 69 weeks as well.
Verse 26 is problem with this though. AFTER 69 weeks the messiah is cut off and the city and sanctuary are destroyed. So either this is happening in the 70th week or it is happening in a gap, before the 70th week starts.
As for the 70th week, are there any other scriptures that state the antichrist will make a covenant? Not that I have found, but there are many times where God states he will make a new covenant. It's interesting to note, that Christ came to establish the new covenant, which correlates perfectly with the 70 week prophecy. And since Christ took away the first (sacrifices and offerings hebrews 10) with his death and resurrection, it is not unreasonable for this to be what is spoken of in Daniel 9:27, especially since Christ's death and resurrection fulfills most of the 6 points of Daniel 9:24, while his ministry and the gospel fulfills the remainder of the 6 points.
