Daniel’s 70th Week (Daniel 9:24-27)

Within the last few centuries many earnest, Godly and sincere Bible commentators and teachers have sought to interpret the meaning of Daniel’s Seventieth Week. Of course whenever we look at a Bible verse we also need to look at it in the light of its context by looking at the verses that precede it and follow it. Also we need to look at the Co-texts, that is to say what the Bible also teaches in relation to the verse we are seeking to interpret. Also we need to look at it in the light of when it was written, to whom it was written, what it meant for them at the time and what it means for us today.

The translation used is the English Translation of the Septuagint, which gives us a very clear meaning of this prophecy. The conclusion arrived at concerning this passage of scripture will differ from most of the modern prophecy teachers today. To be true to the text itself several different reliable translations were considered. The text of the English translation of the Septuagint is quite clear in its meaning and application.
