Daniel 9
... When looking at the text in Daniel 9:24-27, we see a word occurring a few times: the word “week”. ... If we take a look at the context, we see that in Daniel 9:1, Daniel is already thinking about years; not days. The desolation of Jerusalem is prophesied in Jeremiah and Daniel reiterates it, pointing out that it is 70 years, or 10 x 7. ... 24 of Daniel 9, we see the parallel between that and the number of years elapsed before their captivity. ... Elsewhere, when Daniel has been talking about a normal day, the word “yamim” is used. ... ” Lest there be any disagreements to what Daniel actually says, he goes on at the end of the verse to say that there will be a wall and a moat built. ... After all the “weeks” spoken of in Daniel, God carefully chose words in Revelation to correspond exactly to what He had said earlier. ... 15 that the abomination of desolation spoken about in Daniel and the fleeing to the mountains, is the same text as we have just looked at in Revelation, about the woman being flown to the wilderness.
