Second Coming of Lord Jesus seventy weeks

70 weeks = 490 years

When this period of 70 weeks started?

Israelites under the captivity

First Babylon kings – for 70 years

Next Persian kings (kings specified in bible - Cyrus, Darius, Artaxerxes)

Daniel 9:25-27

Our future is clearly mentioned.

4 decrees given by the 3 Persian kings - Cyrus, Darius, Artaxerxes

1^st decree by Cyrus: regarding building the

To build him a house at Jerusalem

2 chronicles - 36:22; 23

2^nd decree by Darius (also build house of god in Jerusalem)

Ezra 6:6-12

3^rd decree by Artaxerxes (regarding to build the house of god in Jerusalem)

Ezra 7:11- 28 (verse 27)

4^th decree again by Artaxerxes

Nehemiah 2:5-8

This request also given to king Artaxerxes by Nehemiah

To build the city of Jerusalem, not the building of house of god.

So first 3 decrees to build the house of god in Jerusalem, but fourth decree is to build the city of Jerusalem.

Daniel 9: Verse 25

The day when the decree to build the city of Jerusalem, this period of 70 years started.

When Gabriel, spoke these things to Daniel, they are under the Babylon .

Meaning still Persians still didn’t come.

So Gabriel revealed the future, to Daniel

445 B.C march 14 – history tells that this day decree is passed by king Artaxerxes

70 year period started

To understand 70 weeks, divide into 3 parts/3 periods:

7 weeks = 49 years

62 weeks = 434 years = then total of 483 years

1 week = 7 years

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Division of 70 weeks.

7 weeks -     49  (Daniel 9 : 25,26)

62 weeks - 434  (v 26)

1 week -         7 (v 27)

--------------------------

                 =  490 years

---------------------------

“Know therefore and understand,
That from the going forth of the command
To restore and build Jerusalem
Until Messiah the Prince,
There shall be seven weeks and sixty-two weeks;

So 7+62 = 69 weeks (483 years - To restore and build Jerusalem

Until Messiah the Prince)

first 49 years - in Nehemaih built the Jerusalem town.

After second 62 weeks (434) years - Messaiah will be cutoff.

and then 

Matthew 21:

Luke 19: 41,42 

42 saying, “If you had known, even you, especially in this your day

the day represents the 62 weeks finished.

Entry into Jerusalem - 62 weeks (434) years completed.

Daniel 9:26 (And the people of the prince who is to come

Shall destroy the city and the sanctuary.) - This prophecy has 2 implications.

History says king Roman king titus destroyed Jeruslem.

Then this verse also implies that anti christ will come with his people and destroy.

So bible experts expect that anticrist will be from Rome.
