Why are some interpreters not being honest with the text involving Daniel 9:27?

[Eternally Grateful]

You don't have to say it. Do you know what a 490 year continuous time period means? It means no gaps. But, you add a huge gap to the prophecy. You have so much trouble understanding what is being talked about here. I think you are in over your head here.

there are many gaps in ot prophecy.

Jesus showed one when he read fro the prophet in Luke 4: 17

And He was handed the book of the prophet Isaiah. And when He had opened the book, He found the place where it was written:

18 “The Spirit of the Lord is upon Me,
Because He has anointed Me
To preach the gospel to the poor;
He has sent Me [i]to heal the brokenhearted,
To proclaim liberty to the captives
And recovery of sight to the blind,
To set at liberty those who are[j]oppressed;
19 To proclaim the acceptable year of the Lord.”

Now if you go back to the actual prophecy, You see Jesus topped where he did for a reason. Because he fulfilled that prophecy as he was there. But the rest of that prophecy would not be fulfilled yet and still has not. So you see a prophetic gap in the passage.

Here is the actual prophecy

Is 61
The Spirit of the Lord God is upon Me,
Because the Lord has anointed Me
To preach good tidings to the poor;
He has sent Me to [a]heal the brokenhearted,
To proclaim liberty to the captives,
And the opening of the prison to those who are bound;
2 To proclaim the acceptable year of the Lord,

This is what Jesus read.


And the day of vengeance of our God;
To comfort all who mourn,
3 To console those who mourn in Zion,
To give them beauty for ashes,
The oil of joy for mourning,
The garment of praise for the spirit of heaviness;
That they may be called trees of righteousness,
The planting of the Lord, that He may be glorified.”
4 And they shall rebuild the old ruins,
They shall raise up the former desolations,
And they shall repair the ruined cities,
The desolations of many generations.
5 Strangers shall stand and feed your flocks,
And the sons of the foreigner
Shall be your plowmen and your vinedressers.
6 But you shall be named the priests of the Lord,
They shall call you the servants of our God.
You shall eat the riches of the Gentiles,
And in their glory you shall boast.
7 Instead of your shame you shall havedouble honor,
And instead of confusion they shall rejoice in their portion.
Therefore in their land they shall possess double;
Everlasting joy shall be theirs.

As you can see, there is a break in the prophecy. The rest has not happened yet. So there is a gap that one can not see in the prophecy, anyone looking would see it as one event, but it is not.

In between these two events, what we see in Dan 9 has occured.. The city is destroyed and left in ruins.. The fulfillment of the second part of this prophecy says israel will rebuild the ruined cities..


490 years just means 490 years. Don‘t say there is no gap. When you can not prove it, and in the text itself. A gap is plain to see.

It already was completed. There is no indication whatsoever that there would be a gap in the prophecy. You are adding that to the scripture.

Again, I already proved this to be in error. There is a lot of indication. And we have precedence as I just showed in this post. Where other prophecies have a gap.

That is wrong. All you have to offer is lies.

Again, practice what you preacH, I will not be talked down to. You either discuss the text. Or prove your pride is to deep to be broken,

I'm talking about what Jesus did to fulfill the prophecy and He did it for Israel. It just so happens that He also did it for everyone else, but no one is being replaced here. When someone has to resort to blatant lies like this, you know you have nothing to support your doctrine. You instead desperately lie in an attempt to make the opposing doctrine look bad. But, anyone with discernment can see through that.

THE PROPHECY IS NOT ABOUT WHATY JESUS WOULD

ITS ABOUT WHEN ISREaL WOULD REPENT AND BE RESTORED.WHICH IS WHAT DAVID PRAYED FOR.

Sorry, I feel like I am talking to a wall.. You’re not listening to a word I am saying.

 

[Eternally Grateful]

I do. Thanks.

No you do not. If you did, I would not suggest to you that you should

What are you talking about? Can you try being specific so I don't have to guess as to what you're talking about here? I hope I'm not asking too much. What exactly am I preaching that I'm supposedly not practicing?

If you would look at what you said, and the post I responded to. You should have figured it out

This is what you said

Please pray for discernment. You currently are very lacking in it.

You should practice what you preach.

 

[Spiritual Israelite]

OMG

Please refrain from using God's name in vain on a Christian forum. You are unbelievably immature. Are you a child?

i do not know if you are being serious and just overlooked it.

Why would you question that? I am a Christian and take sin seriously. I believe lying is a sin. I'm not going to lie about something like that. Why would I?

Or are still trying to act like you did nto see it because you do not want to answer It.

LOL. Look at how many of your posts I've responded to. It should be clear that I do. I don't avoid responding to your posts. But, for some reason I'm ignoring that one? No. I could easily have missed one since there are so many. How can you not understand that?

Post 142

I quoted myself again in post 186, and asked you to respond to it.

Now here is the third time, PS. I have looked at every post you have made since post # 142 and you have yet to even mention it.

so here, This will be the third time, are you still going to ignore it?

I haven't ignored it. You are a liar. Are you comfortable with that? And you're judging me, acting as if you know what I've seen. If I missed that post, so what? It it very obvious by now that I try to respond to all of your posts that I see. Give me a break, kid.

In response your post n which you said that there is NOTHING IN THE TEXT THAT WOULD EVEN SUGGEST A GAP. I wrote this (again for the third time)

Again, How can you look at the passage and say this?

25. Know therefore and understand,
That from the going forth of the command to restore Jerusalem

This was fulfilled in Neh 2 when Nehimiah was given the command to restor Jerusalem

Until Messiah the Prince, There shall be seven weeks and sixty-two weeks;
The [h]street shall be built again, and the [i]wall,
Even in troublesome times.

This was fulfilled when Jesus rode into Jerusalem on a donkey as the prophet prophesied his entrance

Zechariah 9:9

The Coming King​

“Rejoice greatly, O daughter of Zion! Shout, O daughter of Jerusalem! Behold, your King is coming to you; He is just and having salvation, Lowly and riding on a donkey, A colt, the foal of a donkey

Also note Up until this time, jesus continued to say, it is not my time yet. This is what he was talking about. He could not enter jerusalem as king until his time.

Up until now. 69 weeks (7 plus 62) has been literally fulfilled. You would think the 70th week would start the next day. However what does the text say


26 “And after the sixty-two weeks
Messiah shall be cut off, but not for Himself;

The first event after the 69th week, is messiah would be cut off. This happened immediately after he entered jerusalem as he was arrested, tried and crucified.

I disagree that when it says "unto Messiah" it's referring to Him riding into Jerusalem on a donkey. Instead, I believe that it's referring to when He would be revealed as the Messiah which first happened here:

John 1:29 The next day John seeth Jesus coming unto him, and saith, Behold the Lamb of God, which taketh away the sin of the world. 30 This is he of whom I said, After me cometh a man which is preferred before me: for he was before me. 31 And I knew him not: but that he should be made manifest to Israel, therefore am I come baptizing with water. 32 And John bare record, saying, I saw the Spirit descending from heaven like a dove, and it abode upon him. 33 And I knew him not: but he that sent me to baptize with water, the same said unto me, Upon whom thou shalt see the Spirit descending, and remaining on him, the same is he which baptizeth with the Holy Ghost. 34 And I saw, and bare record that this is the Son of God.

Also, I disagree with your claim that He would be cut off immediately after the 69th week ended. It does not say how long after the 69th week ended that the Messiah would be cut off. Can you acknowledge that?

then there is another event

And the people of the prince who is to come
Shall destroy the city and the sanctuary.

This happens after Jesus is cut off. almost 40 years later.. Yet we still have not begun the 70th week yet

There is nothing to indicate that the destruction of the city had to occur within the 70 week time period. The things that had to be completed during and the by the end of the 70 week time period are listed in Daniel 9:24.

This destruction will not just be an event, it will continue for a time

The end of it shall be with a flood,
And till the end of the war desolations are determined.

The end of this destruction will come at a time when these war desolations, which continue today, are determined to continue.

We still have not started the 70 weeks, yet we have 2000 years almost since the 69th week ended..

How can the 70th week not even have started yet when it says the Messiah would be cut off after the end of the first 69 weeks? Last I checked, 70 comes after 69. So, His death had to fall within the 70th week.

No Gap???

There's no gap in the prophecy itself, but you are adding one because of doctrinal bias.

27 Then he shall confirm a covenant with many for one week;

here we have the beginning of the 70th week. We do not know what covenant, or even literally who confirms it,

But, we do know. That is referring to the last individual person who was focused on in the prophecy which was the Messiah. So, the covenant referenced there is the new covenant which Jesus confirmed by His blood.

all we know is that he comes from rome, as he is the prince of the people who destroyed the city of Jerusalem.

What happens during this 70th week?


But in the middle of the week
He shall bring an end to sacrifice and offering.
And on the wing of abominations shall be one who makes desolate,
Even until the consummation, which is determined,
Is poured out on the [l]desolate.”

1. In the middle of the week is this abomination which causes desolation. This causes sacriice and burnt offering to cease.
2. Jesus gave a warning, when you see this, Then run, because then there will be great tribulation such as has never been seen before.
3. We also know this great tribulation will be so severe, that nothing on earth has been like it before or after, So bad is it that all life on earth is threatened (see matt 24)
4. We know that this will culminate in the return of the king, jesus himself. Who the kings of the earth will witness his return and his destruction of the gentile rulers (at this time, Dan 2, Dan 7 Dan 9 Dan 11 and Dan 12 will be fulfilled.)

non of this has happened yet? Why? Because it is NOT YET FULFILLED

So please. Stop saying there is no GAP and stop mocking people who believe it is. Because in reality, the fact you can not see a GAP is really amazing, if we get down to it

The fact that you add a gap to the prophecy when no gap is indicated in the prophecy is what is truly amazing. You are making all kinds of assumptions here and that is all your doctrine is based on. There is nothing to indicate that everything written in Daniel 9:27 has to occur during the 70th week. You are only assuming that. The things that had to be fulfilled by the end of the 70th week are listed in Daniel 9:24 and none of them have anything to do with great tribulation and destruction. Think about that.

 

[Eternally Grateful]

You're not getting it. Of course the blood of bulls never took away sins. But, the old covenant animal sacrifices were REQUIRED by God up until Jesus made His once for all sacrifice. After that, they CEASED to be required. That's what the prophecy is about.

No they were not. There was no temple or sacrifice from the time babylon destroyed the temple. Until it was rebuilt and they re0instituted the temple sacrifice.

we are talking about many years where there were Any, if they were required, then no one living and dieting in this day would have been saved

Your trying to read into prophecy something that is not there

he said sacrifice nd burnt offering will CEASE

He did not say THE NEED would cease.

Thats how people mess up prophecy. They try to spiritualize if and refuse to take it literally

Making claims like this is pointless. We all think that anyone who disagrees with our interpretations of prophecy is misinterpreting prophecy. That goes without saying. But, are you humble enough to acknowledge that you are giving your interpretations and not facts?

Of course I am.

But I do not see anyone who is changing my mind with facts.. they only want me to ignore the literal interpretation of prophecy.

Wrong. All of the things listed in Daniel 9:24 are things that only Jesus could accomplish. And He did that by way of His death and resurrection.

Again, you’re in error. This is YOUR interpretation. But it does not fit the context of Gods answer to daniels prayer

Daniel prayed for HIs PEOPLE. And HIs CITY.

Thats the context of the whole prophecy

Dan 9:
13 “As it is written in the Law of Moses, all this disaster has come upon us; yet we have not made our prayer before the Lord our God, that we might turn from our iniquities and understand Your truth. 14 Therefore the Lordhas kept the disaster in mind, and brought it upon us; for the Lord our God is righteous in all the works which He does, though we have not obeyed His voice. 15 And now, O Lord our God, who brought Your people out of the land of Egypt with a mighty hand, and made Yourself a name, as it is this day—we have sinned, we have done wickedly!

16 “O Lord, according to all Your righteousness, I pray, let Your anger and Your fury be turned away from Your city Jerusalem, Your holy mountain; because for our sins, and for the iniquities of our fathers, Jerusalem and Your people are a reproach to all those around us. 17 Now therefore, our God, hear the prayer of Your servant, and his supplications, and for the Lord’s sake cause Your face to shine on Your sanctuary, which is desolate. 18 O my God, incline Your ear and hear; open Your eyes and see our desolations, and the city which is called by Your name; for we do not present our supplications before You because of our righteous deeds, but because of Your great mercies. 19 O Lord, hear! O Lord, forgive! O Lord, listen and act! Do not delay for Your own sake, my God, for Your city and Your people are called by Your name.”

This is what Gabriel was sent to tell Daniel about. This is the context. Everything to do with the 70 weeks has to do with this..

You’re not using this as context. Your going outside of this, and saying that is fulfillment, it is not

The only think the messiah did in the3 70 weeks was enter jerusalem, and get cut off..

the rest of it had to do with other players..

Making an end of sin? Only Jesus could do that.

yet Israel is still in sin, even today

John 1:29 The next day John seeth Jesus coming unto him, and saith, Behold the Lamb of God, which taketh away the sin of the world.

Yes, He takes the penalty of sin, bit he did not cause israel to repent and stop the sin that caused them to be dispersed. And caused jerusalem and the temple to lay in desolation and destruction. The context of the passage

Make reconciliation for iniquity? Only Jesus could do that.

We agree,, and because of what Jesus did on the cross. Everything else will come to fruition.

2 Corinthians 5:17 Therefore if any man be in Christ, he is a new creature: old things are passed away; behold, all things are become new. 18 And all things are of God, who hath reconciled us to himself by Jesus Christ, and hath given to us the ministry of reconciliation; 19 To wit, that God was in Christ, reconciling the world unto himself, not imputing their trespasses unto them; and hath committed unto us the word of reconciliation. 20 Now then we are ambassadors for Christ, as though God did beseech you by us: we pray you in Christ's stead, be ye reconciled to God. 21 For he hath made him to be sin for us, who knew no sin; that we might be made the righteousness of God in him.


Did Jesus not die for David's people? Of course He did. So, just because He also died for the rest of the world doesn't mean His death and resurrection can't relate to making and end of sin and bringing reconciliation for Israel.

But thats not what the prophecy is about.

ITS ABOUT ISREAL, THE CITY OF JERUSALEM, and THE TEMPLE.

Read Daniel 9. All of it. Not just the passage you want to focus on

No other option in your limited mind. Not all Israelites reject God. Why are you acting as if they all do? The prophecy isn't about what the people of Israel would do, it's about what Jesus would do for them.

The prophecy is not about neither.

it is about God remembering the land, remembering the holy city by his name, and remembering the house of God. And the people who are scattered amount the gentiles. Who are a reproach to God.

again, READ THE WHOLE chapter

If you think that making an end of sin is talking about the literal end of sin, then does this mean you don't believe the 70th week will end until after the thousand years and after Satan's little season? Sin will continue until that time.

lol..

I believe what the passage says

Daniel prayed because the city lay in ruins, and thr people were scattered because of their sin

I believe from that time until today, israel is still in that same sin, they still have refused to repent.

But one day they will repent. And God will answer daniels prayer. And the 70 weeks will be fulfilled.

 

[Truth7t7]

(1) The first part (7 weeks) relates to the rebuilding of Jerusalem.
(2) The second part (62 weeks) takes up to the beginning of Christ’s earthly ministry.
(3) The third part (1 week) begins with the start of Christ’s public ministry (AD 27) and sees the crucifixion half way through it (AD 30), which is the start of the clock of natural Israel’s probationary opportunity (40 yrs) to accept or reject the Messiah’s message and His once-all-sufficient atonement. The concluding 3 ½ yrs saw Israel’s wanton rejection of the once-all-sufficient atonement, the rebellious continuation of the NOW abolished order of Old Testament sacrifice (which is “the overspreading of abominations”). The Jews rebellion saw the destruction of their temple in AD 70 (which was 40 yrs later), which caused the termination of their now abolished temple sacrifices.

It appears you also believe and teach the prince to come, the "He" is Jesus Christ creating desolation

You also deny that the literal, visible, second coming is seen below, when human eyes in the tribes of the earth see the future coming of Jesus in the heavens, you also deny the resurrection of believers seen as the angels gather, you pass this literal future event off as a 70AD judgement upon Israel, this lie is found in reformed preterist eschatology that you promote and teach

(Reformed Preterist Eschatology In 70AD Fulfillment Is A Lie)

(They Shall See The Son Of Man Coming)

(He Shall Send His Angels, They Shall Gather Together His Elect)

Matthew 24: 30-31KJV
30 And then shall appear the sign of the Son of man in heaven: and then shall all the tribes of the earth mourn, and they shall see the Son of man coming in the clouds of heaven with power and great glory.
31 And he shall send his angels with a great sound of a trumpet, and they shall gather together his elect from the four winds, from one end of heaven to the other.

 

[Eternally Grateful]

Please refrain from using God's name in vain on a Christian forum. You are unbelievably immature. Are you a child?

No, just frustrated because I feel like I am talking to a child..

Why would you question that? I am a Christian and take sin seriously. I believe lying is a sin. I'm not going to lie about something like that. Why would I?

You Tell me.. What else would I to believe, I posted it twice. And you never responded to it..

LOL. Look at how many of your posts I've responded to. It should be clear that I do. I don't avoid responding to your posts. But, for some reason I'm ignoring that one? No. I could easily have missed one since there are so many. How can you not understand that?


I haven't ignored it. You are a liar. Are you comfortable with that? And you're judging me, acting as if you know what I've seen. If I missed that post, so what? It it very obvious by now that I try to respond to all of your posts that I see. Give me a break, kid.


I disagree that when it says "unto Messiah" it's referring to Him riding into Jerusalem on a donkey. Instead, I believe that it's referring to when He would be revealed as the Messiah which first happened here:

John 1:29 The next day John seeth Jesus coming unto him, and saith, Behold the Lamb of God, which taketh away the sin of the world. 30 This is he of whom I said, After me cometh a man which is preferred before me: for he was before me. 31 And I knew him not: but that he should be made manifest to Israel, therefore am I come baptizing with water. 32 And John bare record, saying, I saw the Spirit descending from heaven like a dove, and it abode upon him. 33 And I knew him not: but he that sent me to baptize with water, the same said unto me, Upon whom thou shalt see the Spirit descending, and remaining on him, the same is he which baptizeth with the Holy Ghost. 34 And I saw, and bare record that this is the Son of God.

Also, I disagree with your claim that He would be cut off immediately after the 69th week ended. It does not say how long after the 69th week ended that the Messiah would be cut off. Can you acknowledge that?


There is nothing to indicate that the destruction of the city had to occur within the 70 week time period. The things that had to be completed during and the by the end of the 70 week time period are listed in Daniel 9:24.


How can the 70th week not even have started yet when it says the Messiah would be cut off after the end of the first 69 weeks? Last I checked, 70 comes after 69. So, His death had to fall within the 70th week.


There's no gap in the prophecy itself, but you are adding one because of doctrinal bias.


But, we do know. That is referring to the last individual person who was focused on in the prophecy which was the Messiah. So, the covenant referenced there is the new covenant which Jesus confirmed by His blood.

yawn

Funny how I broke the passage down

all you do is go all over the place. Then say I do not know what I am talking about.


The fact you ignore that there is a gap. When their plainly is. Is truly amazing..

 

[Spiritual Israelite]

there are many gaps in ot prophecy.

LOL. Not in any that refer to a prophecy that was to be fulfilled within a certain time period. The prophecy itself indicates that certain things would occur during a continuous 490 year time period and it lists six things that would be fulfilled by the end of that time period. There is no indication WHATSOEVER that there would be any gaps in the prophecy. That is a figment of your imagination.

490 years just means 490 years. Don‘t say there is no gap. When you can not prove it, and in the text itself. A gap is plain to see.

There is no gap to see at all. You are making things up. You are the one adding to the scripture, not me. There is no gap indicated in the scripture, so I don't try to add one just because I'm desperate to make the text fit with my doctrine.

Again, I already proved this to be in error.

You have proved nothing except that you like to act as if your opinions are facts.

There is a lot of indication. And we have precedence as I just showed in this post. Where other prophecies have a gap.

Again, that doesn't apply to prophecies that specify a certain amount of time during which they would be fulfilled. Of course, other prophecies will have gaps because there's nothing limiting them to a certain time period during which they must be fulfilled like the Daniel 9:24 prophecy does.

Again, practice what you preacH, I will not be talked down to.

Stop acting like a child and then maybe I won't have to talk to you like one.

You either discuss the text. Or prove your pride is to deep to be broken,

THE PROPHECY IS NOT ABOUT WHATY JESUS WOULD

ITS ABOUT WHEN ISREaL WOULD REPENT AND BE RESTORED.WHICH IS WHAT DAVID PRAYED FOR.

Sorry, I feel like I am talking to a wall.. You’re not listening to a word I am saying.

I'm listening to every word you're saying and it just so happens that I disagree with almost everything you're saying. And you're disagreeing with what I'm saying. Does that mean I should claim you're not listening to what I am saying? No, right? Are you unable to handle it that someone disagrees with you? That's how children are.

 

[Spiritual Israelite]

It appears you also believe and teach the prince to come, the "He" is Jesus Christ creating desolation

You continue to make yourself look bad by frequently making false claims towards others. He does not deny that Matthew 24:30-31 refers to the literal, visible second coming of Christ. And never has. Don't make claims like this towards someone without even knowing how they interpret a given passage. That is foolish.

 

[Truth7t7]

Stop lying. It is a sin to lie. I do not put a gap into Daniel's 70 weeks. You are falsely representing my view. Are you so lacking in confidence in your own view that you have to resort to lying about my view? Pathetic.

Do you believe the 70th week of Daniel was fulfilled at the cross of Calvary, Yes/No?

 

[Truth7t7]

The prophecy itself indicates that certain things would occur during a continuous 490 year time period and it lists six things that would be fulfilled by the end of that time period.

When was this 490 year time period completed, please explain?

 

[Ritajanice]

 

[Spiritual Israelite]

No they were not. There was no temple or sacrifice from the time babylon destroyed the temple. Until it was rebuilt and they re0instituted the temple sacrifice.

he said sacrifice nd burnt offering will CEASE

He did not say THE NEED would cease.

Thats how people mess up prophecy. They try to spiritualize if and refuse to take it literally

Do you think that all prophecy is meant to be taken literally? Have you ever read the book of Daniel or Revelation? We need to understand the context of prophecy instead of assuming we can read it no differently than we read a news article or something like that.

Of course I am.

But I do not see anyone who is changing my mind with facts.. they only want me to ignore the literal interpretation of prophecy.

I wouldn't want you to ignore the literal interpretation of prophecy. I'd want you to be able to differentiate between what is literal and what is symbolic or metaphorical. I don't believe you are good at that.

Again, you’re in error. This is YOUR interpretation.

And you are sharing YOUR interpretation. I'm glad we've established that.

I believe what the passage says

So do I. I just interpret it differently than you do. In your mind, believing what a passage says means to assume it has to be taken 100% literally. That is a horrible way of interpreting scripture since it's beyond obvious that not all scripture is completely literal. If it was, then what was Paul talking about in 1 Corinthians 2 when he said the word of God must be spiritually discerned? There'd be no spiritual discernment necessary if it was all literal.

Daniel prayed because the city lay in ruins, and thr people were scattered because of their sin

I believe from that time until today, israel is still in that same sin, they still have refused to repent.

But one day they will repent. And God will answer daniels prayer. And the 70 weeks will be fulfilled.

Where does the prophecy indicate that the fulfillment of making an end of sin and so on is dependent on the people of Israel as a whole repenting of their sins?

 

[Spiritual Israelite]

When was this 490 year time period completed, please explain?

It has been explained to you many times before by multiple people. Jesus, the Messiah, was cut off/killed in the middle of the 70th week. The gospel then went out first to Jerusalem and the rest of Israel during the second half of the week. That completed the 70th week because the prophecy specifically relates to Israel. After the gospel first went out to Israel it then started to go out to the Gentile nations.

 

[Truth7t7]

He also spoke of the destruction of the physical temple which was standing at the time.

No he didn't, he spoke of the symbolic temple of his body to be destroyed as you have been shown several times, you and the pharisees believe it was a literal temple made of stone that took 46 years to build

John 2:19-22KJV
19 Jesus answered and said unto them, Destroy this temple, and in three days I will raise it up.
20 Then said the Jews, Forty and six years was this temple in building, and wilt thou rear it up in three days?
21 But he spake of the temple of his body.
22 When therefore he was risen from the dead, his disciples remembered that he had said this unto them; and they believed the scripture, and the word which Jesus had said.

 

[Spiritual Israelite]

Do you believe the 70th week of Daniel was fulfilled at the cross of Calvary, Yes/No?

Yes, I believe Jesus confirmed the new covenant in the middle of the 70th week. I've said that many times.

 

[Truth7t7]

I wouldn't want you to ignore the literal interpretation of prophecy. I'd want you to be able to differentiate between what is literal and what is symbolic or metaphorical. I don't believe you are good at that.

Do you believe that Daniel's (Little Horn/The Beast) maintained a literal "Body" as seen below?

(His Body Destroyed)

Daniel 9:11KJV
11 I beheld then because of the voice of the great words which the horn spake: I beheld even till the beast was slain, and his body destroyed, and given to the burning flame.

 

[Spiritual Israelite]

No he didn't, he spoke of the symbolic temple of his body to be destroyed as you have been shown several times, you and the pharisees believe it was a literal temple made of stone that took 46 years to build

John 2:19-22KJV
19 Jesus answered and said unto them, Destroy this temple, and in three days I will raise it up.
20 Then said the Jews, Forty and six years was this temple in building, and wilt thou rear it up in three days?
21 But he spake of the temple of his body.
22 When therefore he was risen from the dead, his disciples remembered that he had said this unto them; and they believed the scripture, and the word which Jesus had said.

You continue to lie about what I believe. Do you know that lying is a sin? I cannot believe how many people on this forum have no conscience about lying. Not once have I denied what the passage you quoted says. So, don't act like I have. Don't try to equate me with the Pharisees. That is nonsense!

What I'm saying is that Jesus ALSO spoke elsewhere about the destruction of the physical temple.

Mark 13:1 And as he went out of the temple, one of his disciples saith unto him, Master, see what manner of stones and what buildings are here! 2 And Jesus answering said unto him, Seest thou these great buildings? there shall not be left one stone upon another, that shall not be thrown down.

Which temple buildings was Jesus referring to here that He said would be destroyed? Do you think this is referring to His body? Did He refer to His body as "these great buildings"?

Do you believe that Daniel's (Little Horn/The Beast) maintained a literal "Body" as seen below?

(His Body Destroyed)

Daniel 9:11KJV
11 I beheld then because of the voice of the great words which the horn spake: I beheld even till the beast was slain, and his body destroyed, and given to the burning flame.

The beast is also said to have seven heads and ten horns. Are we supposed to take that literally, too? Do you think the beast has seven literal heads and ten literal horns? You would have to take that literally in order to be consistent.

Yes, I believe Jesus confirmed the new covenant in the middle of the 70th week. I've said that many times.

Ok you have Jesus on Calvary in 33AD confirming the new covenant in the 70th week

Where, How, and When, was Messiah "Cut Off" at the 69th week seen below?

Do you see the prince destroying the city and sanctuary as 70AD Roman Armies?

Daniel 9:26KJV
26 And after threescore and two weeks shall Messiah be cut off, but not for himself: and the people of the prince that shall come shall destroy the city and the sanctuary; and the end thereof shall be with a flood, and unto the end of the war desolations are determined.

What I'm saying is that Jesus ALSO spoke elsewhere about the destruction of the physical temple.

It's your opinion Jesus spoke of a literal temple of stone in Jerusalem, John below interprets that the temple destroyed was the Lord's body, and his disciples remembered this after his resurrection

Scripture interprets itself, something you completely disregard to maintain your teaching and belief on a false foundation

John 2:19-22KJV
19 Jesus answered and said unto them, Destroy this temple, and in three days I will raise it up.
20 Then said the Jews, Forty and six years was this temple in building, and wilt thou rear it up in three days?
21 But he spake of the temple of his body.
22 When therefore he was risen from the dead, his disciples remembered that he had said this unto them; and they believed the scripture, and the word which Jesus had said.
