Gabriel said "Jerusalem" - not merely the temple. Unlike those of Cyrus and Darius which are limited to rebuilding the temple, Artaxerxes' decree issued during his 7th year reign in 457 B.C. goes well beyond and provides for the following:I'm not sure what you are looking at but here is the verse in 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.
Here is the decree in Ezra 7. Can you kindly point out the verses that show a decree to rebuild Jerusalem? I don't see any.
Ezra 7:15-23
Reestablishment of the Temple /Sacrifices/Law of God
Ezra 7:24
Reestablishment of Temple Priesthood officiates/Temple Office holders
Ezra 7:25
Reestablishment of Judges/Magistrates/Scribes for execution of municipal duties to the public
Ezra 7:26
Reestablishment of Constabulary/Prison System to enforce rulings and incarcerate/execute offenders
Ezra 7:27-28; Ezra 9:9
Reestablishment of the Jerusalem Wall
As you can see, the decree of Artaxerxes in 457 B.C. is the only one comprehensive enough to fulfill Gabriel's prophecy which says "restore and build Jerusalem". If we count 69 Weeks, we come to 27 A.D. when Jesus was baptized, 31 A.D. when He was crucified, and 34 A.D. when Saul was commissioned "Paul" to take the Gospel to the Gentiles.
According to JEWS who HATE Jesus, Christianity, and have fought to conceal Messianic truth from the world with their Rabbinical Curse? Messianic Jews REFUSE to acknowledge Jesus as the fulfillment of Daniel 9, some preferring the Roman catholic Futurism.Flimsy point???????? The point is Rock of Gibraltar solid. It could not be any more solid. AD 31 cannot be the year Jesus was crucified as Jesus died on a Friday, on the preparation day of the Passover. In AD 31 Passover is on a Monday. Cut and dried FACT.
I've already shown you that you got BAD INTEL, friend. Atmospheric conditions which often obscured atmospheric observations is most likely why Passover fell on Friday, and Reverse Engineering the date from our day means nothing - what matters is that the Jews reckoning of the new moon resulted in a Friday on which "Christ our Passover is sacrificed for us".What the Jews think about this prophecy is irrelevant. We have the information needed regardless of the Jew.
Again, irrelevant. We know that the date of preparation of the Passover falls on the 14th of Nissan. The 14th of Nisan falls on Monday in 31 AD not a Friday as required. Cut and dried FACT. 31 AD is not a viable year.
No, it's merely a reinstatement of the 457 decree - not a new decree. Please show where anything in addition to the 457 decree is mentioned...it's not there, friend!The decree in 444 BC is the decree to rebuild Jerusalem.
No, it's 27 A.D. as the Syro-Macedonian calendar indicates and when Christ died. Arguing that the Syro-Macedonian calendar is not the one Luke used to reckon Luke 3 is like arguing American Christians use the Jewish calendar to reckon chronological events instead of the Gregorian calendar.The 15th year of Tiberius is 29 AD not 27 AD. Just because Tiberius had a co-regency in 12 AD does mean that was the 1st year of Tiberius. AD 12 would be the 39th year of Caesar Augustus, not the 1st year of Tiberius. Secondly, 31 AD does not fulfill the lunar requirements only 30 AD AND 33 AD are viable dates. And we know that neither 31 AD nor 30 AD have a day of preparation of Passover on Friday. That leaves 33 AD as the year Christ died.
