ESCHATOLOGY SUMMARY
INTERPRETATIVE CHART
DANIEL 9: 24-27 PROPHECY
Feasts are “Appointed times with the Lord” Lev.
23:1
Feasts are God’s Calendar of Redeeming grace:
The first 4 feasts prophecies were fulfilled at Jesus 1st coming;
The last 3
feasts will be fulfilled at His 2nd coming.
=======================================================================
Prophecy of the 1st AND 2nd
Coming of Jesus:
Dan. 9:24 “Seventy weeks
(70 - 7 periods) are determined upon thy people and
upon Thy holy city (Jerusalem), to finish the transgression, and to make an end of sins, and to make reconciliation
for iniquity, and to bring in everlasting righteousness, and to seal up the vision and prophecy, and to anoint the most Holy.”
“Know therefore and understand, that from the going forth of
the commandment to restore and to build Jerusalem unto the Messiah the Prince shall be
seven weeks, and threescore and two weeks (69-7’s): the street shall be built again, and the wall, even in troublous
times.”
(69 x 7s = 483 years or 173,880 “prophetic”
calendar days; at 360 days / year)
Note the significance of Israel’s ability to restore
the City of Jerusalem in 445 BC, when ordered by Artaxerxes in Neh. 2:1,
5 & 8 (not the temple which had been under construction for 40 years, and not
completed for another 30years; 486 BC – 416 BC. See books
of Ezra & Nehemiah).
The ability to “rebuild Jerusalem”
started the counting of the 69-7s period as ordered by Artaxerxes in Neh. 2:1-8; aka
483 years per Dan. 9:24-27, until Jesus the Messiah came the 1st time; exactly as prophesied.
“Daniel Prophecy Verification Calculations” file.
The above noted web site page verifies the
validity of this scriptural prophecy of Jesus at His 1st coming after 69-7 year periods as prophesied.
===============================================================
Caveat: Dates
stated are not absolute predictions of prophecy fulfillment. However, this Analysis IS a compilation of Scriptures that
deserve thoughtful CONSIDERATION that we might prepare for a Possible “Season” of our Lord’s return, with RESPONSIBLE reactions of the Heart in service to God;
building a “Nehemiah type wall of Spiritual Protection” in preparation to overcome the future trials / tribulation
/ temptations to deny Christ as Lord and God. ALL Years Are Estimates.
===============================================================
Jesus 2nd coming:
Vs. 27: AND He
(God) shall confirm the (His) covenant (of 70 periods of
7 - upon the people & the city - Jerusalem) with many for one week (1 period of 7): and in the midst of the week He (God) shall cause (allow)
the sacrifice and the sacrifices to cease (thru His permissive will of the AntiChrist’s activites), and for the
overspreading of abominations He (Antichrist) shall make it desolate, even until the consummation (End i.e. End of the Age),
and that determined (God’s wrath) shall be poured upon the desolate (the unrepentant at the opening of the 7th
seal.
“Jerusalem Shall Be Trodden Down,
UNTIL The Times Of The Gentiles Be Fulfilled.”
Luke21:24
Note:
2 of 4 Sacrificial Offerings Are Praise Offerings to God - Not Sin:
Burnt
Offerings: Represents complete submission to God's will.
Ezek. 46:1-2, 12 See also Lev. 1:3-5 (i.e. Jesus)
Peace Offering: Expresses gratitude
to God & has nothing to do with sin.
Lev. 7:11-12, 15
Sin Offering: Sin thru ignorance of the law; an
offense to God.
Lev. 4:2, 13
Trespass or Guilt Offering:
Leviticus chapters 5 & 6.
Reference “End Of The Age” file for greater detail)
and Eschatology Foundational Hermeneutics
Dan. 9:27 states: "And He (God) shall confirm the (His) covenant (of 70-7s) with many for one week (1
period of 7)". Therefore the last 70th 7 year period is also subject to the
prophecy concerning the ability to “restore and to build Jerusalem
unto the Messiah the Prince”, for “Seventy
weeks (70 - 7 periods) are determined upon thy people AND the City of Jerusalem”
Because Daniel 9:24 states 70-7s are determined and upon Thy holy city (Jerusalem)
until the completion of all prophecy; Jesus 2nd coming is also prophesied in the last 70th
7 (“Last Days”) of Dan. 9: 24-27.
Thus this 70th 7 year period is also subject to the ability to “rebuild
and restore Jerusalem”.
This finally occurred in 1967, and therefore
the counting “until the coming on the Messiah the Prince” applies here, just as when ordered by Artaxerxes in
Neh. 2:1 !
Therefore, “Last Days” timing is partially
based upon Israel’s ability to rebuild Jerusalem since it’s recapture in 1967. per
Dan. 9:25
“Jerusalem
shall be trodden down, UNTIL the time of the Gentiles be fulfilled.” Luke 21:24
==============================
Additional Note:
Dan.
9:27 also states: "And He (God) shall confirm
the (His) covenant (of 70-7s) with many for one week (1 period of 7)": and
in the midst of the week He (God) shall cause (allow) the sacrifice & oblation to cease”.
Re.: “He (God) shall cause (allow) the sacrifice & oblation to
cease” is thru His (God’s) permissive will:
God
allows the Anti Christ to cause “tribulation” (Peirasmos) upon the
peoples of the earth; as exemplified in His (God’s) permissive will during the first 5 seals
of Rev. 6 & 7 describing events of false religions, wars, famine, pestilence and death by the sword persecutions;
which includes deceptions by Satan and the “abomination of desolation” by
the “Anti Christ”.
In contrast to the events following the
breaking of the 7th and last seal, consequently opening the scroll; revealing and releasing “God’s
wrath” (Ebrah)upon the unrepentant.
Note:
*Confirm:
Regarding Dan.
9:27: “He shall confirm the covenant” (of 70 periods of 7).
Confirm is from the Hebrew word
“higbir” (Hiph'il form of the verb Gabar) meaning “to confirm
(a covenant), to strengthen”.
See: Hebrew / Greek Interlinear Bible
and Hebrew / Greek Lexicon
However,
the New American Standard (NASB) incorrectly translates “higbir” to the
English verb: “to make” (“karat / poieo” in Hebrew / Greek)
rather; than “to confirm” or “to strengthen”. The NASB
infers there was NO pre-existing covenant “to confirm” or “to strengthen”. This
incorrect translation by the NASB literally changes Scripture, to it’s detriment. "To make" is NOT synonymous
with "to confirm".
NASB translation “to make” is used to heretically
infer the Anti-Christ “makes” a “covenant with the people and the city of Jerusalem”, and consequently, causes major eschatological
interpretation consequences!
This is Satan’s
counterfeit at it’s best; distorting God’s prophecy of His second coming! Unfortunately,
Pre-Tribulation theology uses this translation in justifying the Anti-Christ “making” a covenant with
Israel at the beginning of the 7-year ‘tribulation’ period. It is imperative that a correct translation
‘to confirm’ or ‘to strengthen’ a covenant; be used to show the importance of God’s continued
‘covenant of the full 70 periods of 7s’ with “the people and the CITY OF JERUSALEM”.
Note the ‘confirmation’ or ‘strengthening’
of the entire covenant: this includes the “ability to rebuild Jerusalem”, and applies equally to both periods
(69 7’s & the last 70th 7). Therefore the ability to rebuild Jerusalem
is a key “sign” related to both the 1st & 2nd prophecies related to Jesus coming!
See: Web Site Eschatology Foundational Hermeneutics
See
“End of the Age” &
JESUS’ “PAROUSIA” / “COMING” * for greater detail.
=============================================================
The “Last Days” Timing
Could also be in conjunction
with other factors such as:
In 1948 Israel became one nation again as prophesied
(Ezk. 37:16-22), but did not control Jerusalem
until 1967. Thus Israel had no ability to restore the City of Jerusalem as required in Dan.9:24-27,
as a prerequisite to Jesus' coming a 2nd time.
==============================
The time between the 5th & 6th
Feasts of Trumpets & Atonement is known as:
The 10 days “Days of Awe” / “Affliction” aka:
A time to repent between the Feasts of Trumpets & Atonement before Judgment, culminating at Jubilee; 1 day after
Atonement, which starts at the 50th year; aka Jubilee / Millennial Kingdom.
==============================
Israel’s
holy year is the Jubilee Year. The timing of Jubilee was to years (50) what the timing
of Feast of Weeks (Shavuot / Pentecost) is to days (50). The Feast of Weeks (Shavuot /
Pentecost) occurs on the 50th day; the day after seven weeks, plus 1 day after
Passover. The Jubilee Year occurs every 50th year; the year after seven Sabbatical
years (49 years) Lev. 25:8-11.
Jubilee:
50th year; captives set free at end of the Feast of Atonement. Lev. 25: 8-11
Jubilee is composed of 7 Sabbatical years of 7 years = 49 + 1 year of Jubilee =
50 years. Jubilee starts at the end of 49th year after the Feast of Atonement
(Final Judgment)
==============================
Luke 21:32 Jesus said: “….
This generation shall not pass away, until all be fulfilled.”
40 Year
Generation (See Jesus
on “Last Days”: Mark 13:28-32)
40 years = generation see: Ps. 95:10, Ezek. 29:11, Num. 14:33-34
+ 10 years “Days of Awe” (10 days Repentance; Feast
of Trumpets to Atonement)
Rev. 2: 8-11, Lev.
23:24-27 ("... I have appointed thee each day for a year." Ezek.
4:6)
Generation
+ Repentance
= Jubilee:
(40 yr.; Mark 13:28-32) (10 Days
of Awe) (50 yr.; Lev 25:9-11)
40 years =
Generation see:
Ps. 95:10, Ezek. 29:11, Num. 14:33-34, Num. 32:13
Feast of Trumpets to Feast of Atonement 10
days of Awe. Rev. 2: 8-11, Lev.
23:24-27
Note:
40 + 10 =
50 (40 yr, Generation + 10 Years Days of Awe = Jubilee)
7 x
7 + 1 = 50 (7 Sabbatical Years of 7 Years +1 = Jubilee)
7
x 7 + 1 = 50
Pentecost
- Pentecost:
7 Sabbaths of 7 days + 1 day following Passover = 50
days
7 x 7
+ 1 = 50; 7
Sabbatical Years of 7 Years + 1 = Jubilee
- Jubilee follows 7 Sabbatical years of 7 years
periods
49
+ 1 Year of Jubilee
= 50 years
Jubilee: Captives set free on 50th year. i.e. Millennial
Kingdom
- Jubilee
on 11th day of 7th biblical month
40
+ 10 = 50;
40 yr, Generation + 10 Years Days of Awe = Jubilee
- Jesus arose and spent 40
of the 50 days with them after His resurrection,
leaving 10 days until the Holy Spirit was sent at Pentecost.
- Moses 40 days on Mt Sinai
+ 10 commandments = 50 days
- 40 years
= Generation see: Ps. 95:10, Ezek. 29:11, Num. 14:33-34
- Jews in wilderness 40
years for a generation to die. Num. 32:13
- Jesus in wilderness 40 days
- Saul, David & Solomon all ruled 40 years
- Temple destroyed 40 years
after Jesus started his ministry.
- 10 years “Days of Awe” / Tribulation / Repentance; Trumpets to Atonement
- 10
days Tribulation; Rev. 2: 8-11, Lev. 23:24-27
- 10 Plagues
- 10

Note the feasts relationship to God’s ordained numerical sequencing:
7 day week ending on a Sabbath
7
months of 7 feasts ending on the ultimate Sabbath, the Feast of Tabernacles
7
years culminating in a Sabbatical year
7 Sabbatical years of 7

Feast of Weeks / Shavuot / Pentecost
70 periods of 7 (Dan. 9:24-27) “End of the Age” prophecy
7 year period at the “End of the
Age” (Dan. 9:24-27’s: The 70th 7-year
period)

Rev. 16:16-17, 17:1
SUMMARY:
Therefore, the 7-year “End of
the Age” period is in the 7th Sabbatical of 7 years.
During the last 7 years
in the 10 years “Days of Awe”,
Starting
on the Feast of Trumpets in the 4th year, of the 10 years “Days of Awe”, With
the “counting” starting in 1967 when Israel had the ability to “restore and rebuild Jerusalem” and
had reborn in 1948 as “one nation in the latter days”.
This also correlates with 70 years
from the time Israel became a nation in 1948.
End of the Age:
1967
+ 40 + 10 = 2017;
40
year Generation + 10 Days (Feast of Trumpets to Atonement)
1967 + 50 = 2017; 1967 + 50 years
to Year of Jubilee aka Millennial Kingdom
1948
+ 70 = 2018 Completion
Note: From 1967
The END of 40 years is 2008
The end of 50 years is 2018 - completes 70 years
From 1948
The END of 70 years is 2019
The
year between 2018 - 2019 represents Jubilee;
Aka Millennial Kingdom / Marriage Supper of the Lamb
Note: Biblically, the first month starts in the
month of Nissan (approximately April or May) in 2017.

Sabbatical Jubilee once every 7 years: Debts/payments
forgiven for 1 year (i.e. Jubilee / Millennial Kingdom), slaves freed, land returned to owner (God). Lev.
25:8--13, 23
Conclusion of the 6th Feast: Judgment
completed on Yom Kippur / Atonement, starts Year of Jubilee is marked by a single long blast of the shofar
(Trumpet - Ram’s Horn). It is symbolic of “when the ram’s
horn sounded long …” which marked the conclusion of the Revelation of the Law to Moses at
Sinai. (Ex. 19:13).

The 7 Feasts of the Lord as outlined in Leviticus 23 outlines God’s
redemptive plan for mankind: These 7 Feasts are prophecies related to God’s calendar of redeeming grace for
all mankind, and is the foundation upon which ALL of Sscripture is based.
Just as Jesus fulfilled the prophecies related to His first coming in the first 4 four feasts, Jesus is about to fulfill
the 5th & 6th feasts of Trumpets and Atonement. The 7th and last feast,
called the Feast of Tabernacles, will be fulfilled at a later time after the Millennial Kingdom. Note

When I say unto the wicked, O wicked man, thou shalt surely die; if thou dost not speak to warn the wicked from his way, that
