I don’t know about 70 but in 32 weeks I’ll be in Israel with Dr. T!

Dr Tabor much appreciate your critical analysis of Bible prophecy. This is fabulous work.

I appreciate the wealth of knowledge that Dr Tabor has offered via these lectures. I very much appreciate how Mr Tabor has compiled the various source materials and presented them in way that is both tangible and entertaining. Thank you, sir for your efforts to educate those who would seek knowledge.

I was hoping you would release a video today Dr. Tabor. Thank you for your hard work. Most of us will need to view this more than once to grasp it all and pick up on every nuance. 🧚‍♀

Dr Tabor, you sound really happy an excited talking about this subject. I like the energy. Its a lotta fun. Shalom

Thank you for using the timeline graphics. This chapter was much easier to grasp when seeing the times being shown linearly. This book was one I have avoided but you are making it enjoyable...or at least tolerable. Thank you for the time to record it and the time to edit it. We can see where you have removed bits and I know that takes a lot of time and thinking about where to make the cuts.

Fantastic series so far. Was looking forward to the next episode and watching it right away.

Good morning professor. Thank you!

Thank you Dr. Tabor! Appreciate your work and your willingness to share! Shalom!

Thank you Dr. Tabor!

Please anyone who believes we are living in the "end times" do NOT use this as an excuse to NOT care about the only planet we call home, the Earth. We must leave a living planet for future generations. Thank you as always Dr Tabor for the video

The starting point is the most difficult issue. You have to read this passage backwards to understand what's going on. (i.e., the starting point isn't all that important. What really matters is the final 7, after which the promises in verse 24 are supposed to be fulfilled.) Read verses 26 and 27... describing the 70th Seven, or the final 7 years. That's a virtually perfect description of what happened between 171 and 164 BC. The key words are abomination of desolation and stoppage of sacrifices--which are very clear, and extremely rare events. Antiochus IV did both, c. 167 BC. Sacrifices resumed 3 years later. (1 Macc 4.) Compare these two events to Daniel 11 v. 31, which is obviously talking about Antiochus as well. Everything else in these two verses match Antiochus' persecution of the Jews during that period. What is the likelihood that Daniel is NOT describing Antiochus? Is it all just one big coincidence? This is why interpretations that stretch the dating out further are all a big mess. The prophecy is over! 😀

Thank You Dr Tabor. looking forward to more...

Well put, James, well put. I have always stood by Daniel’s quote that the book is sealed. Daniel himself didn’t seem to understand much of his prophecies and therefore how should we suppose to understand? We are not meant to understand the times, though we may “read the headlines “ here and there but as we all know how that these have also been very deceiving

Wow...now where do we go??? I've never understood about the "rapture" any way!! I don't really want to read about it either! Onward we go!

Thank you for sharing your knowledge. You would think if the evangelicals really think this is end of times there would be more life lived to please God and less Life of Brian. Sigh. But thank you.

Jesus didn't say "When the desolating sacrilege is set up..." He said to run for the hills when you see it standing where it should not be. That conversation occurred less than 200 years after Antiochus set the thing up. Thankfully, his disciples weren't as ignorant, concerning these matters, as you or I.

Thank you

In the 7th to 2nd c BCE in Israel/Judah, was anyone accurately counting years from before the current ruler?

Thank you very much.

Thank you for this video effort, james. ----------- As I´ve noticed before under the #4 video, and also in private mails to James: When non initiated interpretors of ancient texts from different cultures have no clues of the mythical language and it´s spiritual and cosmological symbolics, they interpret it all by taking it literally to account for biased horizontal historical human matters. -------------- In this way, even this video title statement: “The Fundamental Flaw of Popular Christian Prophecy Beliefs”, can when the initial interpretation is skewed, show to be a wrong conclusion if the context deal with cosmological matters of creation in general. ----------- If its James ‘ general intention not to make judgements et all, I think this video title indirectly could very well be a miss. ------- A genuine prophecy doesn´t fail - only interpretors do. And regarding the latter, it goes partly for both the experiencer but especially for those who´re trying to interpret in hindsight what other persons have experienced spiritually.

Regarding dates in minute 15:30 If we take 434 years from 515 BC we get to 81 BC. Onias III was deposed in 175 BC. That 94 years earlier. From 515 BC to 175 Bc that’s only 340 years. What am I missing here?

If I'm not mistaken the decree from cyrus was just that, a decree, that never came to fruition. Most of the temple was built during the decree from artaxeres if I'm not mistaken

Thank you very much

I would be interested to see if the Mamluk Muslims victory against the Mongols in the year 1260 could be construed in the 1260 year prophecy that's often foretold in the Bible. The Mongols were an unstoppable force at this time and were defeated in modern day Israel/Jordan border area I believe. The Mongols (in general) were not respectful of Jews, Christians, or Muslims, or any religion for that matter, but of course some would later become Christians and Muslims

What we're told is that we're dealing with an All-Powerful, Omniscient God who stands outside of time and knows PRECISELY when shit's goin' down. Sure is strange that we get cute, metaphorical language as a necessary lubricant to wriggle out of unfortunate miscalculations and misinterpretations from all different angles. Hmm? Sounds an awful lot like men are makin' shit up and filling in the blanks as they go along. 🤣

What about the anagram of these things??

I think Daniel was told messiah would come in what we would call AD 33. This corresponds very well with the time Colin Humphries has calculated when Jesus appeared in procession to Jerusalem and a few days later was executed, just as Daniel was told. Interestingly Humphries didnt use Daniel when he was trying to work out the time of Jesus' death.

The 490 years ends at 138 AD (3898 Hebrew Year) with the death of Hadrian. It's all there, ya just have to see it. The fundamental flaw is using secular dating for biblical events. The 2300, 1290 and 1335 days also fit this time period.

Interpretations are not The word of God. Don’t have headache on them. I believe Only the one who revealed this to Daniel is responsible to make them happen in His own time and way. Relax, be merciful, just, forgiven, and if possible have peace with all men. Shalom

Was Daniel written during the Maccabean period or was his prophecy partially correct? When do Scholars think Daniel was written?

👍👍👍

I (and a lot of scholars) think the "word to restore" is c. 587 BC. Jeremiah 30 18, and 31 38-40 say that God promised him that Jerusalem was to be rebuilt. That's possibly the "word to restore and rebuild Jerusalem." Then, 7 Sevens (49 years) later, Cyrus arrives, actually allowing the Jews rebuild. (Daniel may have been reading Isaiah 44 28 and 45 13, which (mistakenly) predict that Cyrus--called a "mashiach" in Isaiah 45 1--would rebuild Jerusalem.) Then, 62 Sevens follow, and Onias (the "mashiach" in v. 26) is cut off. That's not exactly 62 Sevens... but the 100 Year War lasted 116 years! The 70 years in Jeremiah 29 apparently lasted just under 50 years. (c. 587 to 538 BC) Jeremiah 29 is the time of Jerusalem's desolation... which started when they were exiled, and ended when they returned under Cyrus. There's no reason to assume that the 70 Sevens have to be exactly 490 years. The idea that the Sevens have to come out exactly is what evangelicals do... but they have to "reverse engineer" the calculation, and they keep playing with the data until it comes out like they want it to. That's why it took a *couple thousand years* for someone to figure out the interpretations that most evangelicals use today.

The Jewish interpretation was always that the first anointed one was Cyrus Yeshayahu 45:1 So said the Lord to His anointed one, to Cyrus, whose right hand I held, to flatten nations before him, and the loins of kings I will loosen, to open portals before him, and gates shall not be closed. And he was the one that first fulfilled the word of Jeremiah since Daniel prophecy was all about interpreting the original prophecy of Jeremiah Yirmiyahu 29:10 For so said the Lord: For at the completion of seventy years of Babylon I will remember you, and I will fulfill My good word toward you, to restore you to this place. Ezra 1:1 And in the first year of Cyrus, the king of Persia, at the completion of the word of the Lord from the mouth of Jeremiah, the Lord aroused the Spirit of Cyrus, the king of Persia, and he issued a proclamation throughout his kingdom, and also in writing, saying: And god says of Cyrus that he would rebuild the city Yeshayahu 44:26-28 He fulfills the word of His servant, and the counsel of His messenger He completes; Who says of Jerusalem, "It shall be settled," and of the cities of Judah, "They shall be built, and its ruins I will erect." Who says to the deep, "Be dry, and I will dry up your rivers." Who says of Cyrus, "He is My shepherd, and all My desire he shall fulfill," and to say of Jerusalem, "It shall be built, and the Temple shall be founded."so Jews start the 49 years from the destruction of temple to the decree of Cyrus.the problem of the Christian interpretation is that jersaulem was already being rebuilt but it was started and stopped over the course of a 100 years but the utterance of the Hebrew prophetic word ultimately refers to Jeremiah’s prophecy and daniels prophecy is in the context of Jeremiah and it was 49 years from the destruction of the temple to the decree of Cyrus but after that the Jewish interpretation offers great difficulties because of the inaccuracies of the Jewish calendar and the missing years.

Your friend got the timeline right. it is 2023. You shall see :)

Good morning mr. Professor😮 and Daniel chapter 12 1290 days,1335 days and 1260 days 😢has this been fulfilled? your critic ❓🤔🧐

A seventy "sabuim" prophecy of Daniel and a seventy year prophecy of Jeremiah. 70 years: Daniel's mourning and fasting was for three "sabuim" certainly not 210 years, Daniel was fasting and mourning for three years at the most. And Ezra later mentions Daniel among those who returned...

This prophecy doesn't work for Christian purposes. They know when they want the messianic figure to appear, so they work backwards from that point to find a claimed starting point. The known concrete date in the prophecy is the ending point, so we should look at how the unnamed messiah relates to that point. The messianic figure is cut off in the same 7 year period that the temple was destroyed...so it certainly can't be Jesus

If you want to understand the prophecies, it is imperative to understand the hieroglyphics and Egyptian life. How many times does God have to tell you Egypt in order for you to get it through your heads about what is the pure evil of this world and what created this world that you live in? When god said you are broken, I see why! Thanks for the perspective

You numbers don’t add up… where are you starting the countdown? 515? 587? 564? Take 490 off of any of these dates and we are way past 164… I’m missing something

That square is Fort Antonio. real temple was by the spring in old city of Dawid. Lets talk about that 'rapture'. What does scripture say? Proverbs 2:20-22: "Walk in the way of goodness, and guard the paths of righteousness. For the straight shall dwell in the earth, And the perfect be left in it; But the wrong shall be cut off from the earth, And the treacherous ones plucked out of it." Are they sure they want to be the one plucked out?? but wait there's more Matthew13:30 ‘Let both grow together (ppl on earth, those of faith and those who are posers) until the harvest/rapture, and at the time of harvest/rapture I shall say to the reapers, “First gather the darnel [first!]and bind them in bundles to burn them, but gather the wheat into my granary [afterward].” ’ I think they are predicting that right as they forsake Torah which means they have no place on earth after the Messiah's return.

i don't like that rendering of 25b it seems less likely

After cataloguing these various competing interpretations of the prophetic timeline(s) given in DANIEL, it might be appropriate to give the interpretation which the Rabbinical Jews give to them. Rabbi Tovia Singer has done several videos (i.e. on TENAK TALK) explaining how Jews have interpreted it, in opposition to the interpretations Christian apologists have written about.

Isn't the Temple simply a more permanent version of the Tabernacle, which, in my understanding, a picture of man's body [the tent] and that which dwells within the body, depicted by the implements in the tabernacle? The Holy of Holies is positioned on the far end of the tabernacle, about where the head/skull would be on the body. The skull is where the brain is located, which is the biological device that's used to communicate with the Spirit. Our head has two temples on either side. Isn't this where we communicate with our God? I believe that the brain is God's designed device that's used to interact with our eternal Spirit that dwells within us. When the body dies, the brain dies as well, but the Spirit returns to the Creator/Father that gave it Life...

Oh, umm, it means 70 "weeks" of millenia. That's the ticket

2023-(7x490) =1407 bce, Numbers and Deuteronomy maybe, describing the Promised Land ……hmmmmmm.

Jesus didn't set dates, so why do those who profess to follow him?

Creation is made up of repeating patterns - the manifestation of fractal equations - but God's creative team riffs on those patterns. The adversary uses patterns of the past to prophecy the victory the adversary has planned in it's Matrix hell parallel universe. God's team then dances around the "whack-a-messiah" traps laid by the adversary to extend the midpoint of creation in the prime universe of creation once again, as more spiritual universes are created to house the worshipers of new gods and demons promoted to full ownership of their own universe - room of the heavenly kingdom - in the last round of the game. It's a fun game, if you know how to play, and who the real God is and avoid worshiping almighty "one" imposters.

Thank you Dr Tabor. I note the translation of Daniel 9:25 (English Standard Version) speaks of Jerusalem being built with ‘squares’ (i.e. the broad open areas of an expanded city) and a trench.When King Agrippa I (41-44) laid the foundation for the Third Wall of Jerusalem there was reported to be an upswing in Messianic expectation because it made the city look much more ‘square’ in shape and it had a planned 90 towers. Agrippa had to leave it unfinished due to fears Claudius would suspect a rebellion under the Jewish king.

Ive seen many vids of James and find them interesting. However i never see what he believes , or what he thinks is real , Jesus or what prophecies etc. He should not just say what he disagrees with but where he stands on the tough topics. If he doesnt believe in the bible or Jesus then say that. Its like being against a war , but not having a plan or idea of what to do with the enemy problem. Just pointing out the bad parts of war.....no alternatives....

The "prophetic gap" sinks many evangelical interpretations. We have a period of 70 Sevens, or 490 years. The first 69 Sevens, or 483 years, supposedly come out exactly, to the year! Then, the 70th Seven pauses between 30 (or 33) and 70 A.D. (The destruction of Jerusalem and the Temple.) And then it pauses again, from 70 A.D., until thousands of years in the future! The evangelical justification for a "gap" doesn't work. They will say that the Temple is destroyed in verse 26, and then later, there are sacrifices taking place, which are then stopped. So it must refer to a later (3rd) Temple, when we get into verse 27. This is simplistic thinking. For example, the "covenant" occurs *during* the final Seven... so that's one prediction that overlaps the others. The problem here is that they're assuming these predictions occur in the exact order listed, and that there is no overlap in these predictions. Obviously, the Temple can be "destroyed" as a process, occurring over a period of years, coinciding with the time during which sacrifices are stopped, and after the abomination of desolation. That's exactly what happened in the 160s BC.

Did the Israelites prophecy of the destruction of Babylon by the Assyrians or the Persians ( I can’t remember who ) come true? I was raised as a Jehovahs Witness and they always refer to that prophecy to prove the Bible as something to believe in. I think Danial was the one that prophesied that distinction. Or was it written after the destruction already took place.

Where did you get this rubbish translation of Daniel 9:24-27 ? Try the Septuagint it’s so much clearer.

Observation #1: NEHEMIAH (who was of "royal" stock) and Ezra, who was of priestly, are the ONLY TWO Judes mentioned in the "Old Testament" presiding over the rebuilding of Jerusalem. A clue might be in the "Book of Ezra", which states that Ezra was commissioned by Artaxerxes (I) to go to the site of Jerusalem "in the SEVENTH YEAR of his reign". According to the "Book of Nehemiah", HE was commissioned in the twentieth year of Artaxerxes' reign to go back and build the walls of the city and was governor of Judah for TWELVE YEARS. There MIGHT be a discrepancy here and they went TOGETHER in the SEVENTH year, because TWELVE YEARS later would come to the NINETEENTH regnal, the year JUST BEFORE Nehemiah supposedly received his commission. THUS, we COULD plausibly assume that the SEVENTH regnal year of Artaxerxes (I), was the END of the SEVEN Heptads of 49 years from the decree to REBUILD the city to the arrival of a "messiah/prince". Chronology is complexical but according to the seemingly best source I could find on Iranian history and culture, "encyclopediairanica.org", Artaxerxes (I) is generally dated to have begun his reign in 465 BC. SEVEN years later would be 458 BC. So 49 years before THAT would make the decree that of Cyrus in 507 BC. Though the "Biblical" account only mentions that Cyrus allowed the Judes to rebuild their TEMPLE, it would NOT have made sense to have a 🏛️ WITHOUT a CITY for it to serve and to support its operation, and 🏛️s in ancient times were the CENTRAL FOCUS of cities. So 490 years until "The END" from 507 BC would be 17 BC! The VERY YEAR according to Josephus that the 🏛️ Herod had begun building two years earlier in 19 BC was FINISHED (though NOT the surrounding courts).

So starting from the later date the crucifixion lines up very well with the Daniel 70 week prophecy. The greatest argument levelled here is that it was not the end. Unfortunately Mr. Tabor is severely mistaken and for all his serious research has failed to understand that prophecy is communicated through hyperbolic metaphor. In fact much speech of the day was hyperbolic. Think of Jesus’ words to poke out your own eye or cut off your own hand. He wasn’t speaking literally obviously. The prophetic literature wasn’t talking about THE END. That’s modern American nonsense for the most part. It was talk about AN END. That is the end of a “age.” 70AD definitely meets these requirements. The Roman Empire “ends” with with a civil war and the end of the Julio-Claudian dynasty set up by Julius Caesar. Vespasian (who’s son destroys Jerusalem) wins the war and starts a new Roman dynasty. But not before the city of Rome itself suffers catastrophic damage as well. Judaism “ends” with the destruction of the temple. No Jew since then has practiced Judaism as it is laid out in the Torah. Only a Talmudic version of it. There is no Judaism without the temple. This is “END” enough and was life changing for most in the Empire and for Jews of the day. The end did come. We need to stop thinking it will be the cessation of all time and space. That may come but that is not in Daniel.

Thanks, what about israel becoming a nation in 1948 + 'this generation' = 75yrs average age,

One thing I want to say. The bible uses the terms, "Kingdom of God (KoG)" and "Kingdom of Heaven (KoH)" pretty often. What I've seen is that we tend to think they are the same thing, but I don't think that's the case. Jesus said that the "Kingdom of God" isn't something you can see with your own eyes. He said it'll be inside you (Luke 17:20-21). Either he was being a hippie, or that the KoG is spiritual or has to do with the heart. The KoH on the other hand, that's the one we can see and actually go into. If that's the case, then the KoG and KoH are not the same thing. When the stone not cut by hand destroys the statue, it establishes the KoG, not the KoH. Historically, Christianity is the one that destroyed the Roman Empire. It started small with just Jesus and his disciples, and covered the whole earth to where we are now. The conclusion therefore, is that the KoG has already come and has been here for a while. This explanation can satisfy some of the prophecies in the bible. Not all of them, but it helps clear some confusion and misunderstandings.

Ok didn’t Daniel say it was sealed until the end? Shouldn’t be a surprise they didn’t buy it before and it’s quite suspicious they even had that theory since Daniel wasn’t edited until around the time of the Maccabean shit went down? I really like you but your biases are pretty annoying. You really haven’t presented the Christians side fairly and I don’t even agree with them myself. But here’s another attempt to get you to think for yourself. You already know the Ottomans also made a decree to build those walls. 1535 to be precise. And it took all of 62 weeks for Jerusalem in times of trouble to be reunited in that 6 day war. There’s that astronomical sign described in Rev 12 that occurred precisely at the end of 69 weeks. Notice also in Daniel 11 the tents planted between the seas? And that the king is colonial in nature overflowing borders? It sounds like U.S.A. and that second count means right now. So the reason it’s broken into 62 and 7 is because the punishment on Jerusalem was doubled just as Isa 40 predicted. I’m telling the truth and shutting mouths at the same time. It’s not that hard. Jesus knew he was also the prince who was coming and those were his own that would trample the Torah.

Josephus was closely connected to the Herodian dynasty and the Hellenistic elite of Alexandria and Asia Minor. His miraculous elevation from Jewish rebel leader to trusted scribe of Vespasian and sole historian of the 1st Jewish Revolt was no accident, nor was his fantasy account of the destruction of Jerusalem that Joseph Atwill's "Caesar's Messiah" so convincingly linked to a narrative that paints Vespasian and his son Titus as the new "combined" Romano-Jewish-Greek-Persian-Egyptian messianic line. Vespasian's father spent a long stretch as a tax collector in Asia province and got very "friendly" with the natives, who lauded him as the most honest Roman tax collector they ever saw. When he returned, he brought with him his 2nd son - who he talked his Roman wife into adopting and raising as her own. Although the first son rose earlier in the cursus honorum, Vespasian somehow eclipsed him and wound up serendipitously with the largest and best trained troops in the eastern empire when Nero was assassinated. Also why Vespasian had the contacts in the east to be able to breed the best mules in Rome from Arabian horses and Palestinian asses (where the oldest evicence of donkey riding comes from). Folks, he had already been selected to be the 2nd attempt to link the Hellenistic elites with Roman elites to build a new line of god-kings of kings in Rome. That's why the Empire fell so easily in his lap despite the head start of Galba, Otho, and Vitellius. When Cleopatra was repudiated by Rome and defeated by Octavian, they bided their time till a weak descendant of the Julio-Claudians gave them another opportunity, and made sure no stronger claimant emerged before their boy Vespasian could come from the safety of his legions in the East. Look at Vespasian's coins and compare to other Romans of the time. He doesn't look Roman, does he? He looks more Semitic. Titus had a torrid affair with Berenice, Herod's granddaugher, and they intended to make her empress, but again the Roman people would have none of it. Vespasian's granddaughter was one of the first Christian saints, and her husband - a kinsman of hers - was one Clemens - almost surely the first historically documented Pope, Clement I. When the Flavian line ended with Domitian, the eastern ambitions went underground, likely to Gaul - where the legends of the messiah line being preserved there emerged from to haunt later Popes. They were almost reignited with the descendants of Julia Domna, but faded again till one Flavius Constantine - who combined the older western messianic lines of the Tuatha de Danaan and Eastern Flavian lines - managed to rise to the purple and saw the "miracle" vision that won the battle of the Milvian bridge, flying the the sign of a Chi Rho, not a cross. And the Chi Rho monogram has been found as early as 200BC in pagan contexts, Christ meaning simply "savior" - analogous to the Hindu Krishna, and coming from the same mythological traditions. It is the symbol of the last non-human messiah, Chiron the Centaur - the tutor of Herakles. Not a centhippus, half horse, but half bull - like the giant statues of Assyria. Who the Hindus depersonified into the nebulous creator of all "Brahma" - like the Brahma bull, see? I could go on and on cleaning up the fractured fairy tales of ancient cultural marxisms. Do some open minded research instead of eyes wide shut "critical" thinking for a change, and you'll find there's a lot of hints of the truth in the Bible and other ancient religious works, but a lot of things doctored to suit the latest ruling powers. The truth lies in spiritual science, not narcissistic children's fantasies of almighty best friends. Power corrupts, absolute power corrupts absolutely - both above and below. Almighty Gods are adversary imposters who took advantage of God leading by example and taking the bitter pill of reincarnation amnesia and karma till he fully reawoke as the real Messiah - a better version of God, trained in the same school of hard knocks all of you face in your own messiah missions.

Do you know why the Resurrection is in the book of Luke, Matthew and John is in there? To let you know you won't recognize him, but the Followers of Jesus are awaiting in Galilee, while his enemies are waiting on a hill called Armageddon. You have on Emperor's Clothes James Tabor. Luke 23:34 Jesus said, “Father, forgive them, for they do not know what they are doing.” And they divided up his clothes by casting lots. Rev 16: 15 “Look, I come like a thief! Blessed is the one who stays awake and remains clothed, so as not to go naked and be shamefully exposed.” 16 Then they gathered the kings together to the place that in Hebrew is called Armageddon.

The darkest apocalypses happen in adversary universes. In the prime universe, the apocalypse may go by and you'll never know it till you die and see how your heaven has been remodeled since your last visit, or what you've been taught to expect. Want to get an idea what the possibilities are? Study the range of NDE's people have been having in recent years, and avoid putting too much credence in the ones that are now preaching easy enlightenment, easy salvation, and easy unlimited power to create in your desired image - those folks are headed for the adversary's Matrix movie afterlife, having swallowed the Potemkin propaganda of the princes, princesses, and hermaphrodites of lies.

Its a dual prophecy. The 490 years for the house of Israel started in 1534 ad. when Henry the 8th broke away from the catholic church to start the reformation (command to rebuild). It ends in 2024. As does Revelation 12:1 and Daniel 12:12. Also Hosea 6:2-3. According to my calculations.

According To Jesus there won't be one stone left upon another. He was talking about all temples in churches is God does not live in temples made with human hands. The name Jesus in Spanish is pronounced Hey Zeus.

There is no "coming evil ruler"..... the "man of sin", the "lawless one" , the "son of perdition" etc.....these are all metaphors for the "CARNAL MIND" of mankind. Just as the "serpent", the "devil" the "Dragon" and "Satan" etc........these are all metaphors for the SAME "CARNAL MIND" of mankind . "That old serpent called the devil and Satan who DECEIVES THE WHOLE WORLD. " ( Revelation 12:9 )

The point everyone forgets is tgat tge "EyT KETZ" prophecy of Daniel is the one about a Final resolution...the real End Time.. and that tgerevis no Messiah to cone and save...ratger tge real Savior is notca Messiah but the Sar Hagadol Michael (implying the angel Michael...captain of the heavenly army of God ) who saves his peopke(the Jees) and Hersukalem/Isreal from the enemies converging to destroy Israel...It is Sar Hagadol Michael who is caled by te Angel Gabriel who gave this prophecy to Daniel by tge term s Moshiah(not Mashiach/Messiah) ,Goail,and Matzil,3 words denoting one who Saves....NOT A MESSIAH/Human Ruler nor even God himself!God cannot be bothered to show up and do tge saving himself...so he entrusts Sar Hagadol Michael to do the job of finishing off Israel's persecute.rs once and for all time the After Michael saves and ends this time trouble that the Jews never experienced so terribly in their history ,then immediately after tge enemies are vanquished,the End of Time cones as the Resurrection of the Dead happens! Even all sinners who scoffed at the truth of the One GOD and his laws will be resurrected...they are not cast to Hell nor a burning lake of fore(Christian ideas and copied by tge Muslims(...no they too get resurrected to face everlasting Shame in whatever place the Resurrection takes place in...the implication isctgat it is right here on Earth ..but maybe not...Daniel does not state where the resurrection of the Dead happens...only that it happens.. So those who followed God and thise who scoffed at God both get resurrected..Tgere is nostatement of A "Finalal Judgement" but the punishment for those who never accepted God (of the Jews/The Creator God) is Everlasting Shame.. a kind if He'll in itself...presumably hurled at them every moment in tormenting their new immortality in whatever place they reside in after Resurrection...Thiose Jews who sin agaivst God or denied Godwho were not dead yet at the time Sar Hagadol Michael resurs Israel from total destruction are also going to live on (implied forever) in this new TIME of Re-Set ...Everyone then will know that God is God..only 1 God..and everyone will worship tge Ibe God...this isvtgebkogical inference for what happens because Daniel does not state anything of any future after the Resurrection.. so you mist imply this as the Final Kingdom of Heaven where only God rules as King...whetger this kind of Heaven Heaven/AfterTime is onEarthborcsonewherecelse is not mentioned.. In any case this Final Resolution where Israel is vodicated and its enemies defeated(but restored after death to a kolnd of living Hell in everlasting shame) has nothing to say about a role for a Messiah...tge pint is the entire "Mrssiabic" concern goes pof! EVENtgecrabbis are proved wrong g...thete is noMrsdiah whose kingdom or priesthood lasts forever...in other words Mesdia=a big so what! Rather the Real END TIME prophecy and tge roke of the angel Michael is what truly counts...Forget Mesduah's..tgeir purpose into Fail...Jesus failed to fulfill the prophecies for saving Israel..He got killed..and you cannot have 3 in1..there us only 1 God...this does not mean tge rabbis wre right...they too got fixated ona Messiah will cone and save and everything will be glorious /peace on earth forever...lion lies down with tge lamb..etc...etc... NO! Messiah's fail...The MOSHIH /GOAIL/MATZiL = SAR HGADOL MICHAEL gets tge ultimate victory...tge Jews winand their persecuting enemies are turned to dust (temporarily as tge get resurrected to everlasting shame in the NEW TiME(if Time even exists anymore). So tge entire "Messianic" prophecies are rally nothing burgers...What counts idtge Real Endi g/NewBeginning.. It also is curious that God cannot be bothered to show up Honself to save abd to get things finally right...he leaves the task to Sar Hagadol Michael to resolve. Thus Daniel does not Praise God as you might assume for Saving Israel from a possible final destruction ...there are no Hallelijahs... It just ends after the Resurrection.. Nothing more is said about what happens next except that those who scoffed at God will face everlasting Shame. That's it. If viewed this way then the entire Messianic exercise that first Jews brought to the World Nd later was adopted by the Christians or Jesus Believers s and having to invent a 2nd Coming and all of that spiel because he failed the 1st time(did not save his people=The Jews) becomes irrelevant! What really matters is tge Sar Hagadol End Time Orophecy...not a Mesdianoc ruler/king connected to the kibe of David. You simply cannot have it both ways. This the mesdianic IFEA ultimately goes poif! Both Christianity and Rabbinic hopes for acidic Messiah ruler who brought gs peace forever go pof! It does not matter and the entire Mesdianoc prophecy corpus turns into sone kind of DVidic Royalist hope that is entirely groundless despite what prophecies were given...because in Daniel tge Sar Hagadol prophecy is revealed to Daniel by angel Gabriel. So you got a choice...Either believe in a Messiah rescuer or believe in angel Gabriel telling tgecrezl truth about how it all ends! If you believe in mesdianoc David's restoration you are calling Angel Gabriel a liar as to tge ultimate resolution ofvthe human problem. If you believe Gabriel told Daniel the true Ending then messianosm goes into the scrap-heap. It is yfat simple. Christianity goes poof! Islam with its idea that Jesus cones back to destroy the Jews in a Final Judgemental all infidels thrown into a lake of hellfore...alk of those non-Jewish ideas goof! Are you willing g to be that roel was not lying? Everladting shame awaits you.😊

not really that impressive just a flawed opinion

The KJV, which you claim to read from, as well as the MKJV, ASV, Geneva, RV, even the DRB!, just to name a few point, to the anointing of the MOST HOLY, aka the Messiah, Jesus. This will provide a completely different perspective and understanding. You state that you don't have a specific interpretation preference but this incorrect small detail surreptitiously throws off any reader that is trying to learn from you.

So the main problem with most peoples “interpretation” of Scripture is that the language is taken literal. Prophecy is a genre and abides by its own rules. One of them being hyperbolic language. That is it uses phrases and ideas that are exaggerated to make a point. For instance many prophets talk about “the stars falling from the sky” but this is not literal. Merely an exaggerated metaphor to communicate the falling of powers. I respect James. I hope he is not making the same mistake in his overviews of interpretations.

The 490 years is in error, 70 weeks is not 490 years as you suppose. Going back into the correct wordings, It is 70, 70's, meaning 2 periods of 70 years. There was a Jewish Christian teaching this and how to discern the passage in Jeremiah. It really doesn't matter because it is all over and has been over since 70ad. Daniels 70 week is fulfilled already. The temple was destroyed in 70ad, God keeping his promise that all Israel and Judah would come to judgement for their whorings. The antichrist has happened already, the false prophet, High Priest Phannias ben Samuel, 67-70, was elected by the people. This is an abomination to God Making this the abomination that causes desolation. Only the Levites were to be chosen for the High priest, but Phannias ben Samuel was appointed by the people and caused their deaths. The temple and other grounds were tilled under by the Roman's. The Jewish Revolt of 70ad consumes the scriptures except one point that DEATH is coming for all , Just look around it is increasing every where, Death's cup is almost full. All scripture is fulfilled and there is NO rapture, never has been. Daniel's setting is not about Daniel @41.45, These time statements are about CHIRST, everything in Prophecy points to CHRIST no matter what Book. You are trying to figure when the END will come? Right !!! It is not hard and you don't have to get into Daniel to do it. Everything in the life of Christ on this earth is pointing to Christ. You would being with Christ's birth on Tishri 1, 3737 or September 12/13, 25bce. I am the first and the last. The hebrews began their years with the new year beginning Tishri The first day of light, Elul 29 (which precludes) Elul is a day of darkness. It Officially ends the year. Though Tishri moves on the calendar from months to month it does not always fall in September can move into late October sometimes. Tishri is the month when they must watch for the sighting of the new moon, this is the day not known, for it is only known to God, even Christ said he did not know the day, it is because the day begins when the sliver of the moon is sighted. This sighting is important to begin the rest of the festivals and Passover. All these things had to be done by the law, as Christ had to fulfill the law and he did. The 49 you point out is actually 49.7 months it is the age of Christ. I know this because it is written very plainly in the law. Christ was called home to heaven, in a JUBILEE YEAR 26ad April 21. Continuing on with this is from 26ad Christ crucified, God gave the Israelites 40 years to repent and they would not, so The Great Tribulation began in 66 ad, then the High Priest was set up in the temple and he was sitting in the place of GOD, just as scripture says. 66/67 ad, High Priest , Phannias ben Samuel was set up in the temple, trigging the abomination of Desolation to begin, which ended with GOD DIVORCING both ISRAEL AND JUDAH. All fulfilled But one. The Prophecy of DEATH and HELL... scripture clearly tells us DEATH is still being put down and it will end when the earth stops, as God Said " Time will be nomore". Time can not advance in its normal routine, without the earth stopping in her tracks, all will die and we who are in Christ will go from life to life, the wicked will not get that opportunity and will be cast out of the kingdom. Once we are in the kingdom there will be 1000 years of rest with Christ, this will be the sabbath rest as God rested from all his work, but the sabbath was for man. Hope you can see what God showed me. I have been working on all this for a few years and you know how God works he doesn't always give us revelation until we can understand the scriptures and apply them as it is his will, not the flesh of man that determines when timing is right. Blessings

End time prophets= grifters😂
