the beginning of the the 69 weeks is given specifically in Daniel, from the order to go out and rebuild Jerusalem and its walls until Messiah the prince is 69 weeks. The year 444 BC and the rebuilding of Jerusalem was ordered by Artexeres in regard to Nehemiah's plea for Jerusalem. The scope of Daniel 9 has 6 specific objectives for the 70 weeks.
“Seventy weeks are determined
For your people and for your holy city,
To finish the transgression,
To make an end of[ sins,
To make reconciliation for iniquity,
To bring in everlasting righteousness,
To seal up vision and prophecy,
And to anoint the Most Holy.
the 69 th week came when Jesus road in the foal of donkey on palm sunday. Jesus said about that day if you had know this thy day of thy visitation, but they who were calling out Hosanna would soon by crying out to release Barabas. The part about Messiah being cut off and the city and sanctuary destroyed are an addendum to the 69th week and neither part of the 69th or 70th week. The Lord came exactly 69 7's from the order to rebuild Jerusalem and the Lord was cut off not for himselff and the city was then destroyed with the sanctuary in 70AD. The 70th week begins when the prince who shall come confirms a covenant with the many for one week or 7 years. In the middle of the 70th week it says of this prince who is of the people who would destroy Jerusalem that he will bring an end to the sacrifice. In Rev we see this is where the dragon gives power to teh beast and the beast survives a mortal would and commits the abomination of desolation in the temple. He then requires the mark of the beast and the false prophet gives life to the image of the beast and all must worship the image or die.
This is all future with a great deal of evidence screaming like Noah" giant ark before the flood that this day is coming. Israel is a nation again and Jerusalem is the center of global religious and political crisis. The worlds religions are uniting as are the governments to form a single authority. The Temple Institute has prepared everything necessary for the resumption of the daily sacrifices not done since 70AD. Hosea 3 says this 4 For the children of Israel shall abide many days without king or prince, without sacrifice or sacred pillar, without ephod or teraphim. 5 Afterward the children of Israel shall return and seek the LORD their God and David their king. They shall fear the LORD and His goodness in the latter days.
You see it has been many days without a sacrifice and Israel has not had a king since Babylon. The return of the sacrifice is linked in Hose to the return of David and Israel seeking the Lord and it is a latter day prophecy. It has been many days with out a sacrifice and many more without a king. The 70th week covenant will soon be formed and Israel will get the return of the sacrifice and in the middle of this week is when the abomination of desolation will take place. The very specifics to support this view are all lined up and on the stage now. The replacement theology that God is done with Israel ignores the obvious literal nature that is witness to the prophecy being literal not allegory.
