The biblical account of Daniel the prophet begins as he and other young men from Judah were taken captive by King Nebuchadnezzar of Babylon (Daniel 1:1-4) in approximately 604 B.C. This captivity of citizens of Judah in Babylon lasted for 70 years, as God had foretold through the prophet Jeremiah (Jeremiah 25:11).. and : In the first year of the reign of Darius (around 539 B.C.), Daniel came to understand, or simply proved to himself again, the prophecy of Jeremiah that predicted a 70-year captivity of his people (Daniel 9:1-2). The end of the 70 years was approaching at that time. Daniel was likely in his 80s or 90s by that time. He lived a long life, but the Bible does not tell us how old he was when he died.

Please watch my entire series on the 70 Weeks. I prove that what you state (and what many still believe) is very much in error. No where is it stated that the Babylonian exile was 70 years long.

What is the title of your book. I would like to buy it. Can I find it on Amazon?

It's "Hidden Rhythms in Prophecy"

EclipseEventSigns. - Hello, it's me again. I have your video awhile back. Your stance is one of "calculation" to determine when the Messiah was to appear. After all of your "calculations" you have deter mined that Messiah appeared when he entered into Jerusalem "Triumphantly". You have too many ASSUMPTIONS in your theory. First of all the Prophecy states that "from the decree", which we do not have to know exactly what day or year that was, i.e. no "calculations" are needed. We KNOW that God is accurate so I believe that He meant what He said and accomplished what He said would be accomplished. I know from Scripture, as Recorded by Matthew and Luke, that Jesus was born around the time of a certain Roman Caesar and a Certain Idumean King. I gather that any Elementary student can determine when those people ruled. No EXACT date is needed. What is needed is the Proper interpretation of what the Angel told Daniel. Did the Angel. What is meant by "unto or until Messiah mean? You say it has reference to his "Triumphal", as you call it, entry into Jerusalem supposedly being proclaimed as King and Son of David. If you do such a thing you CHANGE the constant meaning of "weeks" from "weeks" of Years to a "week" of Days. By what law of either hermeneutics or space time continuum can you do such a "change"? If you are going to use the argument that "shabua" can mean 7 of anything and so it can mean 7 days then you are using a logical fallacy. A "dozen" means 12 of anything. But, if I tell you that I am going to give you a "dozen" crates each with 144 or 12 dozen apples, and after opening the last crate, you only find 12 apples, would you think I was being truthful? I mean, after all, the last crate was a "dozen", wasn't it. No my friend, you can't CHANGE the definition of words to suit your "calculations". The "weeks" in Daniel are ALL "weeks" of Years. Simple elementary math tells us that 70 "weeks" of Years equals 490 consecutive Years. The Prophecy says "unto Messiah" which I take, without "calculations" but by just READING the Historical Accounts, that the Man (not the baby or child) Jesus of Nazareth was HERALDED by John the Baptist as the Messiah, the Christ, which the Voice from Heaven verified. Daniel was not given a vision of Messiah as King which is why Jesus did not ride into Jerusalem riding on a "white horse with a sword". He rode in on the "foal of an ass". What is so "Triumphal" about THAT?? No, my friend, the Messiah made his appearance publicly to the People of Judea as the Messiah WHEN he was publicly proclaimed to he "the Lamb of God who takes away sin of the world". For 3 1/2 Years he preached and CONFIRMED Messianic Gospel of the Kingdom TO COME, WHEN GOD WOULD DETERMINE, which as we know NOW, was not at that specific time. Again, Jesus, AFTER having fulfilled the time to appear, AFTER the second section of 62 Years, i.e. in the 484th Year of the 490 Years Prophecy, was "cut off" in the middle of those 7 last YEARS, i.e. in the middle of the 487th Year. We do not need to know what Gregorian, Julian, Roman, or Jewish Calendar Year that was. We have God's infallible prophecy to tell us that it DID HAPPEN. We are not left to our own devices to CHANGE anything which has been written. 70 "weeks" of Years is 70 "weeks" of Years and we cannot "mix and match" meanings if words to suit our "theories", wouldn't you agree? Again, the 70 "weeks" Prophecy about the Suffering Servant Messiah, what Jesus himself said, "was fulfilled in your ears" to those in the Synagogue, stopping short of the remaining sentence, the part about his "second" coming, which Daniel had nothing to say about. Why do people want so desperately to put words in Daniel's mouth? The Prophecy was simply about Jesus' first appearance to Israel as the Suffering Servant Messiah and not as King of kings and Lord if lords. The "problem" with Christians with respect to the 70 "weeks" Prophecy is not with faulty "calculations" but with faulty EXEGESIS, otherwise known as ISEGESIS, i.e., introducing one's own biases INTO the text.

I haven't even presented how to accurately solve the prophecy. You'll have to wait. Your assumptions are invalid.

@@eclipseeventsigns - Nope!! They are quite valid because I do not have to CHANGE any meanings of words to understand the Prophecy nor rely on Calendars of any type to understand what is plainly stated and recorded in the Scriptures. Besides, the Jews of the FIRST Century were the only ones who needed to know EXACTLY what day the Messiah would aappear if they had only known the "time of their visitation". Your "calculations" are NOT NEEDED for proper EXEGESIS of the Prophecy. It's just another "rabbit trail" which leads to a bottomless hole.

You will find that no one else has come up with this view before. Mainly it's because people have not studied the actual Hebrew text very closely.

@@str.77 Matthew does not explicitly state they knew the year. But they obviously did because they stated the sign they saw in the heavens pointed to the Jewish messiah being born in Judah.
