When was YESHUA’s Ministry, Death, and Resurrection?
(Part 3)

(Part 1) (Part 2)

Last but not least, the 70 weeks prophecy of Daniyyel/Daniel within Dan 9:24, 25, 26, 27.

This is a straight Hebrew to English translation:
Weeks/sevens seventy WE will decree/determine/cut-off/divide upon/over/on your people and upon/over/on your holy/set-apart city/encampment/excitement to/for/onto restrict/restrain/withhold/shut-up the transgression/revolt/rebellion/sin and to seal/seal-up/close-up and to seal/seal-up/close-up sinful-things/sins/offenses/penalties/sacrifices/offenders sinful-things/sins/offenses/penalties/sacrifices/offenders and to/for cover-over/make-propitiation/pacify/cancel/make-atonement iniquity/guilt/punishment-for-iniquity/perversity and to/for the bring/come/go in rightness/righteousness forever/long-duration/antiquity/perpetual/everlasting and to seal/seal-up/close-up vision/revelation and prophecy/prophet and to anoint/smear/rub-with-oil/consecrate Holy/set-apart Holies.

Dan 9:24, 25, 26, 27

This is a modified Hebrew to English translation for clarification:
70 weeks/sevens (490) WE will decree/determine(d)/cut-off/divide upon/over/on your people and upon/over/on your holy/set-apart city/encampment/excitement to/for/onto restrict/restrain/withhold/shut-up the transgression/revolt/rebellion/sin and to seal/seal-up/close-up and to seal/seal-up/close-up (all) sinful-things/sins/offenses/penalties/sacrifices/offenders sinful-things/sins/offenses/penalties/sacrifices/offenders and to/for cover-over/make-propitiation/pacify/cancel/make-atonement-for iniquity/guilt/punishment-for-iniquity/perversity and to/for the bring/come/go in rightness/righteousness forever/long-duration/antiquity/perpetual/everlasting and to seal/seal-up/close-up vision/revelation and prophecy/prophet and to anoint/smear/rub-with-oil/consecrate (the) Holy/set-apart (of) Holies.

And, the strong/mighty/act-insolently covenant to/for/onto (a) great-many, (will be for) one week/period-of-seven, and (in the) middle/half (of) the week/period-of-seven HE/he will shabbat/cease/desist/rest sacrifice and offering, and upon/over (the) wing/extremity/corner/edge (of the) detested-thing/Abomination/idol from/of/out-of Desolat(ion)/appalled/devastate and until/as-far-as/even-to/up-to (the) completion/complete-destruction/consumption and (that) she was determined/decided/cut/sharpened (to be) pour-forth/pour-out upon/over (the) Desolat(ion)/appalled/devastate. Dan 9:24, 25, 26, 27

This is the chosen bold text with extra removed for easier reading:
70 weeks determined upon your people and upon your holy city to restrain/shut-up the transgression/rebellion and to seal/close-up (all) sinful-things/sins/offenses/penalties/sacrifices/offenders and to cover-over/make-propitiation/make-atonement-for iniquity/guilt/punishment-for-iniquity and to bring in rightness/righteousness forever and to seal vision/revelation and prophecy/prophet and to anoint (the) Holy (of) Holies. And, know and you will be-wise/understand, from going-forth (of the) word/decree to return and for building Yerushalaim/Jerusalem until/as-far-as/even-to/up-to (the) Mashiach/Messiah/Anointed Ruler, (there will be) 7 weeks and 62 weeks, you will return and (it) will be built (with) plaza and trench/wall and (even) in the times (of) distress/constraint. And, after the 62 weeks HE, (the) Mashiach/Messiah/Anointed, will be chewed/consumed/cut-down/cut-off/to-covenant, and not for HIMSELF, and they will ruin/corrupt/decay/destroy the city and the Holy,

(the) people (of the) Ruler/ruler coming, and HIS/his end (will be) with (a) flood/overflowing and until/as-far-as/even-to/up-to (the) end (of the) war are determined desolations/devastations.

Scripture is very accurate and will say if something needs to be figured to the very day like Ex 12:41. The verses above only indicate from the “word/decree going forth to return” and rebuild Yerushalaim/Jerusalem “until” YESHUA, the Mashiach/Messiah/Anointed Ruler, there would be (7+62=96) 69 periods of seven that we now know is 69 periods of 7 years. So, HE would not “show up” or “start HIS ministry” “until” there was 69 weeks of years, not 68 weeks of years or 70 weeks of year (see Table of the 70 Weeks below). That really gives us a few years HE could “show up.” These periods of 7 years do not line up with the Sabbatical-years/Shemiththah/Shemitah. But, as shown in the table below, the Shemiththah/Shemitah years still line up if the count is exclusive counting only full 7 years Shemiththah/Shemitah year periods. YESHUA still shows up in the 69th week. Cyrus, king of Persia, and Darius did issue decrees to return to Yerushalaim/Jerusalem, but only to rebuild the Temple/House-of-GOD (Ezra 1:1, 2, 3, 4; 6:1, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12) [ref]. Artaxerxes I, king of Persia, reigned from 465 BC to 424 BC [ref]. In his 7th year on the 1st day of 1st Month of Aviv/Abib (Nisan), he gave a decree to return and “make-a-search/inquire of Yerushalaim/Jerusalem” and do whatever seems good according to the will of GOD (Ezra 7:8, 9, 13, 18) [ref] (see Table of the 70 Weeks below). After this decree, 69 periods of 7 years occurs, and YESHUA shows up and officially starts HIS ministry on the 1st day of the 1st Month 2 years into the next 7 year period that would finish 70 weeks of years. Although, HIS ministry really started earlier during the 1st year into the 7 year period. If we are using Shemiththah/Shemitah years, then YESHUA shows up exactly on the 69th Shemiththah/Shemitah year. Also, after the 69 weeks, YESHUA would be “chewed/consumed/cut-down/cut-off/to-covenant.” And, before the 70th week of weeks of years, YESHUA was placed on a Cross “for us” for the punishment of our sin and “not for HIMSELF.” The word “chewed” even fits as explained in the article “The Flesh.” Within the 70 weeks, YESHUA by dying on the Cross did “restrain/shut-up the transgression/rebellion and to seal/close-up (all) sinful-things/sins/offenses/penalties/sacrifices/offenders and to cover-over/make-propitiation/make-atonement-for iniquity/guilt/punishment-for-iniquity and to bring in rightness/righteousness forever and to seal vision/revelation and prophecy/prophet and to anoint (the) Holy (of) Holies.” Notice it says “seal vision/revelation and prophecy/prophet.” It does not say end “vision/revelation and prophecy/prophet.” (The 49 count Shemiththah/Shemitah was used in the table and this writing. If you use the 50 year count Shemiththah/Shemitah, it would line up starting 1 year before the “Count of Weeks of Years” in the table below. So, it would still work as well. See Shemiththah/Shemitah for more details on the 49 vs 50 count Shemiththah/Shemitah.)

The part of the verses (colored green) can be read two different ways. Many prophetic verses in the Bible are fulfill in more than one event, and this is one of those verses. The “ruler” and “he” could be read as YESHUA or the Anti-Christ. Both fit the context. YESHUA is the Ruler coming of the people, and HIS end brought the overflowing of the SPIRIT called Living Water that would last till the end as HE will never leave or forsake the Believer (Jhn 7:38; Heb 13:5; Dt 31:6). YESHUA’s strong and mighty covenant was for the whole world, as many as would say “I do” to it (Jhn 3:15, 16, 17, 18). The middle of 7 can be considered anywhere from 3.5 to 4. The reason is when you reach the end of 7 you are at 8, just like YESHUA arose on the 1st day of the week (which is also the 8th of the week) and judgement of everyone will be after 7000 years at the beginning of 8000 years (Rev 20:7, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15), so YESHUA’s covenant was in the middle around 4000 years. And, HIS covenant through HIS death on the Cross and resurrection from the dead was also 4 years into the 70th week, being in the middle of the 7 year period (see Table of the 70 Weeks below). We can see HE gave a rest/shabbat to sacrifice and offering as shown in Part 1 of this article with the sacrifices no longer being accepted for the 40 years before the 2nd Temple’s destruction. And, this was all in the face of the enemy who was completely defeated at the Cross (Col 2:15; Heb 2:14; Luk 10:19). There will be a future time very soon when the Anti-Christ will make a covenant with many people for one 7 year period that he will break in the middle and end/cease sacrifice and offering in the 3rd Temple until his end in complete-destruction (Rev 11:1, 2, 3, 7, 11; 13:5; Rom 16:20).

All of this shows the Bible was given by a perfect GOD WHO knows the future 100%, and all HIS prophecies come to past. Praise be to the one LORD YEHOVAH, our GOD and KING YESHUA.
