Good night everyone. Thank you Bobby Jo for posting this subject. It has been enlightening. I still have some more studying to do, so maybe I'll get more to add to my knowledge later.

The problem with this...other than the fact that is does not eliminate the possibility the heptads are "days" to which the "day/year" principle would apply...is that how do you amputate 490 years from 6.5 years? Impossible.FALSE. "Seventy weeks" is literally "seventy SEVENS" (Heb shabua = heptads, which can mean either a week of days or a week of years. Check any lexicon you like. The entire prophecy of Daniel's 70 weeks confirms that those are weeks of years, thus 70 x 7 = 490 years.
At the same time the days are literally days because from both Daniel and Revelation: 1260 days = 42 months = 3 1/2 years = times (1 yr) + times (2 years) + half a time (six months). Thus 2300 days = 6 years and approx 5 months), and 3 1/2 years is about half of that.
Actually I quit "posting" on the OP. I'm merely denying LUDICROUS doctrines. If I were Posting, I'd be providing information on the OP, but it seems that people are happier having their ears tickled.

The implication that I'm brainwashed doesn't bother me, but what does is that you've not provided any argument as to why any of that Q & A is wrong.@Phoneman777
Jesuit ideas? It is just plain old fashioned history. Besides, I'm not Catholic. :)
I was raised SDA, so immediately recognized your graph. You might want to think for yourself by the Spirit.

Really? Gabriel comes to explain the 2,300 by immediately launching into the revelation about the 70, yet they have "nothing to do with each other"?They have nothing to do with each other! Two different prophecies. Only SDA's got them combined.
The start of the 490 was in 457 B.C. when Artaxerxes gave command to "restore and build Jerusalem".The start of the 490 years was during Medea Persia, and the start of the 2300 was during the world reign of Greece.
The start of the 490 was in 457 B.C. when Artaxerxes gave command to "restore and build Jerusalem".
Since they're amputated from the 2,300, they start in 457 B.C. as well.

The little horn doesn't come out of the four horns, but the four winds. Check noun/pronoun gender agreement and you'll see.Think about it. The little horn out of one of the 4 generals after Alexander the Great was Antiochus Ephiphanes the IV. He defiled the Jewish temple by sacrificing a pig on the altar to Zeus. The Maccabean revolt was to cleanse this abomination. The revolt lasted 2300 days, 6 1/3 years.
Catch my fly ball!
444 is merely a "re-enstatement" of his original decree, once he was satisfied the Israelites were on the level. The decree went out in 457 B.C. :)There are two dates for Artexerses. One is 444 BC. But I think 457 BC is becoming more popular. Out of 4 decrees, only one includes the streets and wall.
sweet dreams, my dear sister in Christ!Okay, I'll check out Gabriel and get back to you. Right now it is storming and I'm going to bed. I love to sleep in thunder.

Besides, Antiochus cannot even stand in the same room with the likes of Artaxerxes, Cyrus, Darius, or Alexander the Gr8, yet somehow he's "exceeding great" beyond those guys? He was a world class chump.
Question: When Jesus referred to "the AoD spoken of by Daniel the prophet", did He put that event in the past or the future?...the "little horn" as being the Antiochus Epiphanes, who committed the "AoD"
