John 5:43 I am come in my Father's name, and ye receive me not: if another shall come in his own name, him ye will receive.

John 19:12-15, 15. "We have no king but Caesar".

When the Roman armies came to Israel, they came in the name of Caesar and not some god.

Jesus made this prophecy in 33 AD ish, at that time it was Caesar who the leaders of Israel accepted.

To pull this out of the first century context and apply it to sometime 1900 years later cannot be supported, in my opinion.

The Jews (Judaism) are looking for such a person, instead of Jesus who they reject as being their messiah.     You can go to any Jewish (Judaism) web site to validate that.    Such as the Judaism 101 web site.

There are many children of Israel who have entered the gospel kingdom in our present time.

Many in Israel today and others are still looking for a material world land mass kingdom with borders on maps of the planet. Jesus said that His kingdom is not of this world.

His kingdom will continue for eternity while this material heaven and earth flies away, like chaff or a bird, Dan 2:35, Rev 20:11.

Jesus's return, His Second Coming is in Ezekiel 39:21-29.   Jesus Himself speaking in the text.

These scriptures still have the Ezek 38-39 battles fought with bows and arrows and spears, etc., as the context.

Gog/Magog - then the 7 years (verse 9) - then Armageddon (verses 17-20) - then Jesus's return (verses 21-29)

Gog/Magog, Then 7 years of peace? What 7 years is this? It cannot be the 7 years of Dan 9, because that prophecy ends with the desolation of Jerusalem in 70 AD.

Then Armageddon?

Then Jesus returns?

----

Ezek 39:25-29, Does seem to have images of when Jesus comes, but this was fulfilled long ago.

 As far as seeing the face of Jesus in a literal form, Ex 33:20, shows that you that you cannot see the face of God and live. So His literal presence on this planet would kill everybody.

The bows, arrows, spears represent weapons of war.   In the latter days, latter years of Ezekiel 38:8, Ezekiel 38:16, those of course will be mechanized weapons of modern day warfare.

The 7 years following Gog/Magog is the same 7 year 70th week of Daniel 9:27.

Right after Gog/Magog, the prince who shall come will be anointed the king of Israel, as the thought-to-be messiah by the Jews (for a while), thus becoming the Antichrist.

The person goes through 5 stages, described in blue on my chart

As the Antichrist, he will confirm the Mt. Sinai covenant for 7 years as Moses required back in Deuteronomy 31:9-13 of all future leaders of Israel to do on a 7 year cycle.    Which the confirmation action will be a big speech from the temple mount to the nation of Israel, that God gave the land of Israel as theirs forever.

Of course, such a speech is not possible with the Muslim presence on the temple mount.  But that obstacle will be removed by the Gog/Magog event.

The "latter years", so, anywhere the the KJV says "latter", that means at the close of history, or what?

Are you just using the translation of the word to set the timeline?

Latter to what? Daniel and Ezekiel wrote during the Babylonian captivity. The event of Ezek 38-39 and Dan 9, take place many years from them, in later years.

Just taking the translation of the word "latter" and basing the timeline on the theory that the translation automatically is for the end of time is not firm.

It's like saying, "There is the word, latter", so it is automatic that it means the end of time period.

There are many "latter/later" times in the Bible. The end of the Law, the end of 70 AD Jerusalem, the end of the trib period, the end of this world, etc..

When we say "latter/later", it should be defined as to what time period we are talking about. By doing that, I believe that it would be recognized that the Ezek 38-39 time period is not the same as Dan 9 70th week.

The timeline anchor of Dan 9 is Jesus in the 1st century and the destruction/desolation of Jerusalem in 70 AD ish.

------

Are the latter times just before Jesus returns?

If Jesus reigns for a literal 1000 years and then the Rev 20 battle happens, isn't that the latter years, instead of before Jesus comes?

If there are 1000 years to go after Jesus comes, then the times just before Jesus comes would not be the latter years?

---

The Bible has both literal and symbolic passages and verses. The Ezek 38-39 passages have both.

Someone might place the Ezek 38-39 passage as future. Then say, "The weapons MUST be symbolic because it is future to us".

Instead, just take it for what it is saying, that the weapons used are from a time past and the passage is in the past.

Well, Jesus is "cut off" in the middle of the 70th week. 

That shows that the 70th week was in the time of Jesus, 33 AD ish.

"We have no king but Caesar", Jn 19:15. The Jews accepted Caesar as their king and savior of the nation. 

Then Caesar desolated Jerusalem and the temple, just as Dan 9 said that he would. But, Caesar was only allowed to do that because Jesus/God withdrew the covenant protection over Jerusalem.

Jesus/God brought the armies of Rome to desolate Jerusalem just as He had said that He would do.

The military of Israel controls the Temple Mount. Those of Islam are only allowed to be there. Israel could make the speech anytime that they wanted to.

Ezek 39:29, If God literally showed His face to people, they would all die, Ex 33:20. This means that God is not literally showing His face, but only that God's favor is upon them.

So it doesn't show the coming of Jesus at the resur/rapt.

To understand what Moses required of the future leaders of Israel to confirm the Mt. Sinai covenant,  you need to consider the scene of Deuteronomy 31.

Deuteronomy 31:1 And Moses went and spake these words unto all Israel.

The children of Israel were about to go into the promised land.   Moses at 120 years old would not being going in with them because earlier in the Exodus he disobeyed God in striking the rock instead of speaking to it, for water to flow out from.

So Moses in Deuteronomy 31 made a final big speech to the nation of Israel.

In verses 9-13, Moses made a law that they were to follow regarding the Mt. Sinai covenant, to remember all of the difficulty the children of Israel went through, in order to receive the promised land.

9 And Moses wrote this law, and delivered it unto the priests the sons of Levi, which bare the ark of the covenant of the LORD, and unto all the elders of Israel.

10 And Moses commanded them, saying, At the end of every seven years, in the solemnity of the year of release, in the feast of tabernacles,

Moses objective was that future generations of Israel be reminded that God gave the land of Israel as theirs forever.     And the process Moses laid out was that the leaders of future generations, as long as they were in the land, would speak to the gathering of the nation, from a place of God's choosing.      To remind them, that by the Mt. Sinai covenant, they received the promised land as theirs forever.

11 When all Israel is come to appear before the LORD thy God in the place which he shall choose, thou shalt read this law before all Israel in their hearing.

12 Gather the people together, men, and women, and children, and thy stranger that is within thy gates, that they may hear, and that they may learn, and fear the LORD your God, and observe to do all the words of this law:

And that the speech to the gathering of the nation was to be made from a place of God's choosing (the Jews currently take that place to be the temple mount - as I have been told by them).     And on a cycle of every 7 years.   

13 And that their children, which have not known any thing, may hear, and learn to fear the LORD your God, as long as ye live in the land whither ye go over Jordan to possess it.

In verse 13, Moses was referring to the young people of distant future generations who were long separated from the days of the Exodus, and the purpose of the law that Moses made was to keep it fresh in the future children of Israel minds on how they ended up in the promised land of Israel.

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

So this is what will begin the 7 year 70th week of Daniel 9:27.    The prince that shall come,will be perceived by the Jews as being their long awaited King of Israel messiah.  And playing out that role, the Antichrist will make the big speech that Moses required back in Deuteronomy 31:9-13.

I agree that Moses told Israel what to do regarding the reading of  the Law.

I agree that Israel regards the Mount as revered.

I disagree that the Bible says that the Antichrist will give a speech there.

--- 

Dan 9:25, Jesus is Messiah the Prince.

Jesus has already confirmed the covenant in 33 AD, Gal 3:17.

Dan 9:26, Jesus is the Prince that brings armies to desolate Jerusalem in 70 AD.

God is the one who brings armies against Jerusalem, Ezek 38:4, hooks in their jaws.

----

If the 70 weeks didn't end like they were supposed to in 37 AD, then the prophecy would be longer than 490 years, which would make the prophecy false.

The timeline anchor is Jesus being cut off in the middle of the 70th week. That would be 70 1/2 weeks. So this shows that the 70th week had already started when Jesus died, it was halfway through the 70th week.

The remaining 3 1/2 years is from the death of Jesus until Israel rejected the confirmed covenant and the gentiles were allowed in.

Does the text of Daniel 9:26 say...

26 And after threescore and two and a half weeks shall Messiah be cut off, but not for himself: and the people of the prince that shall come shall destroy the city and the sanctuary; and the end thereof shall be with a flood, and unto the end of the war desolations are determined.

...no, it does not.

Daniel 9:27 is that confirmation of the covenant for 7 years takes place - first...... to begin the 7 year 70th week.      Then in middle of the seven years, the prince that shall come will cause the sacrifice and oblation to ceaste, followed by abominations, making it (the temple) desolate.

Was Jesus a Roman ?  No, Jesus was a Jew.

The Romans destroyed the temple and city in 70AD, long after Jesus's first coming.

The little horn person of Daniel 7 and 8 emerges out of the fourth kingdom in Daniel 7:23-24.    The fourth kingdom in Daniel 7 is the Roman Empire.     In the end times, the EU has manifested itself as the Roman Empire.

What is your opinion. Has the 70th week of Daniel begun?

Is there any evidence that the 70th week has begun?

I do not think the 70th week has begun, but I think looking at the transition of Daniel 7:3-8 to Revelation 13:1-2, the first sign I'm expecting to see is the quartering of global governance with one quarter in the Middle East where 10 kingdoms will align with each other. The merging of the symbolic animals in Daniel 7 to the Dragon in Revelation 13 won't happen until the second half of the week, but it seems pretty clear that four contemporaneous diverse kingdoms containing many heads/horns/kings of kingdoms in each are represented. To me, this translates perhaps to a NATO, BRICS, Abraham Accords, etc. type of alliances of nations together into 4 main areas of global governance. Who knows how that could come about, perhaps financial collapse, war, climate change, pandemic, etc.

*begin speculation based on understanding of scripture surrounding 70th week*

What I expect to see starting the 70th week will be the arrival of an Elijah-like figure around Passover that will prepare the hearts of Israel to recognize the rise of an orthodox leader from the line of David in Israel as someone to whom they should listen to. My speculation is that a revealing of the rediscovered Ark of the Covenant will be the catalyst to bring all the tribes of Israel from around the world back to the land and take seriously what is only in orthodox circles now, the return to, and strengthening of, the Mosaic Covenant in the land of Israel. He will be crowned as the king of Israel and will change the times and laws to align with the Mosaic Covenant. He will also initiate the building of the third temple to return to the everlasting statutes God gave Israel to follow regarding ministering at the temple. This is only the wrapping around the poison pill of deception however.

This will inflame the region much more than the red heifers did leading to October 7, and the Middle East will break out into war. Perhaps that is when the global alliances take form? In addition to the surrounding areas coming against Israel, 3 of the 10 kingdoms will as well. As depicted in Daniel 11:40-45, the king of Israel will defeat Egypt and the surrounding areas, purging the land of those who would destroy Israel. I suspect that Isaiah 17 will also be fulfilled in reference to the attack on those in the North and likely Iran for the attack from the East.

Whispers of Messiah will grow in Israel as the temple is dedicated and Israel's enemies are defeated. The great deception will be underway, yet the two witnesses and Christians in Israel will be speaking the truth and warning the people. Perhaps this is why some of Israel don't fall for the deception.

An apparent fulfillment of Ezekiel 38-39 will happen when the king comes back to Jerusalem and is killed almost 3.5 years after the start of the week. As Israel begins to mourn their king, the Elijah-like prophet who prepared the way for and introduced him to the people will seem to raise him from the dead. I think this could be the strong delusion that God sends that they believe a lie, the lie surrounding the warning of Christ of false christs. All Israel and the world will be in amazement at this and in his pride he will enter into the temple and stop the daily sacrifice because he will claim Jeremiah 31:31-34 has been fulfilled and their sins have been forgiven so there is no need for the daily sacrifice. He will claim to be god and most of Israel will be deceived. Malachi 3:1

The expectation will be that all the land of Judea will be holy, and so anyone who denies this new god of Israel must be purged according to his word. Malachi 3:2-6 Families, such an important part of the culture, will turn against each other, perhaps why it's called the time of Jacob's trouble. I think Joel 2 also speaks of this time just before the sixth seal.

So at this point I think that the 70th week will start with war and chaos because Israel will become very strong and unwavering in their determination to return to God. They will have a king over them that will not put up with the capitulation to the chaos for peace. Rather he will create peace by eliminating the chaos and show strength in the region. When Israel is attacked, he will end it without apology. To the world, many will be offended, but to Israel he will prove himself mighty to save. And the fact that Israel will remain powerful through it while building the temple will bring pause to the world. Then, once he is resurrected, the world will wonder at him.

Hebrews who reject him will be hated by their own for rejecting the perceived messiah. Christians who reject him will be hated because they followed Yeshua, who claimed to be the Messiah, but didn't conquer Israel's enemies like this man just did. And not only did he conquer Israel's enemies, but he also died protecting his people and was raised again from the dead. All the Old Testament prophecies will seem to be fulfilled before their very eyes. This is a great deception, using the truth of God's Word to deceive a blinded people into rejecting the truth and going after a lie, worshiping a false god once again and becoming the harlot riding the Dragon in their unbelief as they are broken off from the Root to whither and die.

But God has a remnant of His people who will not worship a false god. They may still not yet accept Yeshua, but when He comes in great power and glory and gathers His bride, the veil will drop from their eyes and they will look upon Him who they pierced and repent. He will take them into the wilderness prepared for her and speak comfortably to her again.

Sorry, it's hard to talk about the reasons I think will reveal the start of the week without getting into the first half too. Chart laying out much of the details

Matthew 24:3-5, 11, 23-27
And as he sat upon the mount of Olives, the disciples came unto him privately, saying, Tell us, when shall these things be? and what [shall be] the sign of thy coming, and of the end of the world? And Jesus answered and said unto them, Take heed that no man deceive you. For many shall come in my name, saying, I am Christ; and shall deceive many. ... And many false prophets shall rise, and shall deceive many. ... Then if any man shall say unto you, Lo, here [is] Christ, or there; believe [it] not. For there shall arise false Christs, and false prophets, and shall shew great signs and wonders; insomuch that, if [it were] possible, they shall deceive the very elect. Behold, I have told you before. Wherefore if they shall say unto you, Behold, he is in the desert; go not forth: behold, [he is] in the secret chambers; believe [it] not. For as the lightning cometh out of the east, and shineth even unto the west; so shall also the coming of the Son of man be.

The great deception will be underway, yet the two witnesses and Christians in Israel will be speaking the truth and warning the people. Perhaps this is why some of Israel don't fall for the deception.

An apparent fulfillment of Ezekiel 38-39 will happen when the king comes back to Jerusalem and is killed almost 3.5 years after the start of the week. As Israel begins to mourn their king, the Elijah-like prophet who prepared the way for and introduced him to the people will seem to raise him from the dead. I think this could be the strong delusion that God sends that they believe a lie, the lie surrounding the warning of Christ of false christs. All Israel and the world will be in amazement at this and in his pride he will enter into the temple and stop the daily sacrifice because he will claim Jeremiah 31:31-34 has been fulfilled and their sins have been forgiven so there is no need for the daily sacrifice. He will claim to be god and most of Israel will be deceived. Malachi 3:1

The expectation will be that all the land of Judea will be holy, and so anyone who denies this new god of Israel must be purged according to his word. Malachi 3:2-6 Families, such an important part of the culture, will turn against each other, perhaps why it's called the time of Jacob's trouble. I think Joel 2 also speaks of this time just before the sixth seal.

So at this point I think that the 70th week will start with war and chaos because Israel will become very strong and unwavering in their determination to return to God. They will have a king over them that will not put up with the capitulation to the chaos for peace. Rather he will create peace by eliminating the chaos and show strength in the region. When Israel is attacked, he will end it without apology. To the world, many will be offended, but to Israel he will prove himself mighty to save. And the fact that Israel will remain powerful through it while building the temple will bring pause to the world. Then, once he is resurrected, the world will wonder at him.

Hebrews who reject him will be hated by their own for rejecting the perceived messiah. Christians who reject him will be hated because they followed Yeshua, who claimed to be the Messiah, but didn't conquer Israel's enemies like this man just did. And not only did he conquer Israel's enemies, but he also died protecting his people and was raised again from the dead. All the Old Testament prophecies will seem to be fulfilled before their very eyes. This is a great deception, using the truth of God's Word to deceive a blinded people into rejecting the truth and going after a lie, worshiping a false god once again and becoming the harlot riding the Dragon in their unbelief as they are broken off from the Root to whither and die.

But God has a remnant of His people who will not worship a false god. They may still not yet accept Yeshua, but when He comes in great power and glory and gathers His bride, the veil will drop from their eyes and they will look upon Him who they pierced and repent. He will take them into the wilderness prepared for her and speak comfortably to her again.

Sorry, it's hard to talk about the reasons I think will reveal the start of the week without getting into the first half too. Chart laying out much of the details

Matthew 24:3-5, 11, 23-27
And as he sat upon the mount of Olives, the disciples came unto him privately, saying, Tell us, when shall these things be? and what [shall be] the sign of thy coming, and of the end of the world? And Jesus answered and said unto them, Take heed that no man deceive you. For many shall come in my name, saying, I am Christ; and shall deceive many. ... And many false prophets shall rise, and shall deceive many. ... Then if any man shall say unto you, Lo, here [is] Christ, or there; believe [it] not. For there shall arise false Christs, and false prophets, and shall shew great signs and wonders; insomuch that, if [it were] possible, they shall deceive the very elect. Behold, I have told you before. Wherefore if they shall say unto you, Behold, he is in the desert; go not forth: behold, [he is] in the secret chambers; believe [it] not. For as the lightning cometh out of the east, and shineth even unto the west; so shall also the coming of the Son of man be.

Enjoyed the detail on your post. The chart was hard to read though. 

I don't think Day 7 is the start of the Day of the Lord. I think Day 7 is the start of the Millennial kingdom. The Day of the Lord begins at the 6th seal and is one year long.

    • You are coming up higher in this season – above the assignments of character assassination and verbal arrows sent to manage you, contain you, and derail your purpose. Where you have had your dreams and sleep robbed, as well as your peace and clarity robbed – leaving you feeling foggy, confused, and heavy – God is, right now, bringing freedom back -- now you will clearly see the smoke and mirrors that were set to distract you and you will disengage.

      Right now God is declaring a "no access zone" around you, and your enemies will no longer have any entry point into your life. Oil is being poured over you to restore the years that the locust ate and give you back your passion. This is where you will feel a fresh roar begin to erupt from your inner being, and a call to leave the trenches behind and begin your odyssey in your Christ calling moving you to bear fruit that remains as you minister to and disciple others into their Christ identity.

      This is where you leave the trenches and scale the mountain to fight from a different place, from victory, from peace, and from rest. Now watch as God leads you up higher above all the noise, above all the chaos, and shows you where you have been seated all along with Him in heavenly places where you are UNTOUCHABLE. This is where you leave the soul fight, and the mind battle, and learn to fight differently.

      You will know how to live like an eagle and lead others to the same place of safety and protection that God led you to, which broke you out of the silent prison you were in. Put your war boots on and get ready to fight back! Refuse to lay down -- get out of bed and rebuke what is coming at you. Remember where you are seated and live from that place.

      Acts 1:8 - “But you will receive power when the Holy Spirit has come upon you, and you will be my witnesses … to the end of the earth.”

    • George Whitten, the visionary behind Worthy Ministries and Worthy News, explores the timing of the Simchat Torah War in Israel. Is this a water-breaking moment? Does the timing of the conflict on October 7 with Hamas signify something more significant on the horizon?

    • Understanding the Enemy!

      I thought I write about the flip side of a topic, and how to recognize the attempts of the enemy to destroy lives and how you can walk in His victory!

      For the Apostle Paul taught us not to be ignorant of enemy's tactics and strategies.

      2 Corinthians 2:112  Lest Satan should get an advantage of us: for we are not ignorant of his devices. 

      So often, we can learn lessons by learning and playing "devil's" advocate.  When we read this passage,

      Mar 3:26  And if Satan rise up against himself, and be divided, he cannot stand, but hath an end. 
      Mar 3:27  No man can enter into a strong man's house, and spoil his goods, except he will first bind the strongman; and then he will spoil his house. 

      Here we learn a lesson that in order to plunder one's house you must first BIND up the strongman.  While we realize in this particular passage this is referring to God binding up the strongman (Satan) and this is how Satan's house is plundered.  But if you carefully analyze the enemy -- you realize that he uses the same tactics on us!  Your house cannot be plundered -- unless you are first bound.   And then Satan can plunder your house!

    • Abraham and Issac: Pictures of the Resurrection, Part 2
      Shalom everyone,

      As we continue this series the next obvious sign of the resurrection in the Old Testament is the sign of Isaac and Abraham.

      Gen 22:1  After these things God tested Abraham and said to him, "Abraham!" And he said, "Here I am."
      Gen 22:2  He said, "Take your son, your only son Isaac, whom you love, and go to the land of Moriah, and offer him there as a burnt offering on one of the mountains of which I shall tell you."

      So God "tests" Abraham and as a perfect picture of the coming sacrifice of God's only begotten Son (Yeshua - Jesus) God instructs Issac to go and sacrifice his son, Issac.  Where does he say to offer him?  On Moriah -- the exact location of the Temple Mount.
