Our FATHER, YHVH, has told us all things in HIS HOLY Word.
Eccl 1:9-10
9 The thing that hath been, it is that which shall be; and that which is done is that which shall be done: and there is no new thing under the sun.
10 Is there any thing whereof it may be said, See, this is new? it hath been already of old time, which was before us. KJV
In this study, we shall be look at the "Seventy weeks" of years, as it applies to this final generation.
In no way does this study takes away from the longer view of the "Seventy weeks" utilizing the "gap theory", but only brings it into focus from a different viewpoint for this last generation.
You will also find several pages of History included in this study. This 'History' begins in the year 1492 A.D..
It is important that you make yourself familiar with this 'History', in order to understand the study.
Dan 9
1 In the first year of Darius the son of Ahasuerus, of the seed of the
Medes, which was made king over the realm of the Chaldeans;
2 In the first year of his reign I Daniel understood by books the number
of the years, whereof the word of the LORD came to Jeremiah the prophet,
that he would accomplish seventy years in the desolations of
Jerusalem.
Before we can go any further, we have need to consider this
"whereof the word of the LORD came to Jeremiah the prophet, that
he would accomplish seventy years in the desolations of Jerusalem.".
"that he would accomplish seventy years in the desolations
of Jerusalem."
The number "seventy" is indicative of
"Universality" and refers to "Israel and Her
Restoration".
Let us look at these definitions, so that there is no misunderstanding
of YHVH'S Plan and Purpose.
"that he would accomplish"

JEREMIAH ... "YHVH lifts up"
The major prophet during the decline and fall of the southern kingdom of
Judah and author of the Book of Jeremiah. He prophesied during the
reigns of the last five kings of Judah.
Jeremiah was born in the village of Anathoth, situated north of
Jerusalem in the territory of Benjamin (Jer 1:1-2). He was called to
the prophetic ministry in the 13 th year of Josiah's reign, about
627 B.C.. He must have been a young man at the time, since his
ministry lasted for about 40 years-through the very last days of the
nation of Judah when the capital city of Jerusalem was destroyed.
Jeremiah's call is one of the most instructive passages in his book. God
declared that he had sanctioned him as a prophet even before he was born
(Jer 1:5). But the young man responded with words of inadequacy:
"Ah, Lord God!" (Jer 1:6). These words actually mean "No,
Lord God!" Jeremiah pleaded that he was a youth and that he lacked
the ability to speak. But God replied that he was being called not
because of age or ability but because God had chosen him.
Immediately Jeremiah saw the hand of God reaching out and touching his
mouth. "Behold, I have put My words in your mouth," God
declared (Jer 1:9). From that moment, the words of the prophet were
to be the words of God. And his ministry was to consist of tearing
down and rebuilding, uprooting and replanting: "See, I have this
day set you over the kingdoms, to root out and to pull down, to destroy
and to throw down, to build and to plant" (Jer 1:10).
Because of the negative nature of Jeremiah's ministry, judgmental texts
abound in his book. Jeremiah was destined from the very beginning to be
a prophet of doom. He was even forbidden to marry so he could devote
himself fully to the task of preaching God's judgment (Jer 16:1-13). A
prophet of doom cannot be a happy man. All of Jeremiah's life was
wrapped up in the knowledge that God was about to bring an end to the
holy city and cast off His Covenant People.
Jeremiah is often called "the weeping prophet" because he wept
openly about the sins of his nation (Jer 9:1). He was also depressed at
times about the futility of his message. As the years passed and his
words of judgment went unheeded, he lamented his unfortunate state:
"O Lord, You induced me, and I was persuaded; You are stronger than
I, and have prevailed. I am in derision daily; everyone mocks me"
(Jer 20:7).
At times Jeremiah tried to hold back from his prophetic proclamation.
But he found that the word of the Lord was "like a burning fire
shut up in my bones" (Jer 20:9). He had no choice but to proclaim
the harsh message of God's judgment.
Jeremiah did not weep and lament because of weakness, nor did he
proclaim evil because of a dark and gloomy personality. He cried out
because of his love for his people and his God. This characteristic of
the prophet is actually a tribute to his sensitivity and deep concern.
Jeremiah's laments remind us of the weeping of the Savior (Matt
23:37-39).
As Jeremiah predicted, the nation of Judah was eventually punished by
God because of its sin and disobedience. In 587 BC Jerusalem
was destroyed and the leading citizens were deported to Babylon.
Jeremiah remained in Jerusalem with a group of his fellow citizens under
the authority of a ruling governor appointed by Babylon. But he
was forced to seek safety in Egypt after the people of Jerusalem
revolted against Babylonian rule. He continued his preaching in Egypt
(Jer 43-44). This is the last we hear of Jeremiah. There is no record of
what happened to the prophet during these years of his ministry.
In the New Testament (KJV) Jeremiah was referred to as Jeremy (Matt
2:17; 27:9) and Jeremias (Matt 16:14).
(from Nelson's
Illustrated Bible Dictionary, Copyright (c)1986, Thomas Nelson
Publishers)
Note when FATHER'S HOLY SPIRIT overtook Jeremiah's spirit.
Jer 1:9 "Then the LORD put forth his hand, and touched my
mouth. And the LORD said unto me, Behold, I have put my words in thy
mouth." KJV
This can be likened unto the 2nd Baptism, in that YHVH'S Words
were the only words which would flow forth through Jeremiah's vocal
cords and from his mouth, from that day forth.
Let us look at the second Baptism, the Baptism of YHVH'S HOLY SPIRIT.
907 baptizo-
1) to dip repeatedly, to immerse, to submerge (used of vessels sunk)
2) to cleanse by dipping or submerging, to wash, to make clean with
water,
to wash oneself, to bathe
3) to overwhelm Not to be confused with 0911, bapto.
The clearest example that shows the meaning of baptizo is a text from
the Greek poet and physician Nicander,
who lived about 200 B. C. It is a recipe for making pickles and is
helpful because it uses both words.
Nicander says that in order to make a pickle, the vegetable should first
be `dipped' (bapto) into boiling water and then `baptized' (baptizo) in
the vinegar solution. Both verbs concern the immersing of vegetables in
a solution. But the first is temporary.
The second, the act of baptizing the vegetable, produces a permanent
change.
When used in the New Testament, this word more often refers to our union
and identification with Christ than to our water baptism. For example,
Mark 16:16. `He that believes and is baptized shall be saved'. Christ is
saying that mere intellectual assent is not enough. There must be a
union with him, a real change, like the vegetable to the pickle! --Bible
Study Magazine, James Montgomery Boice (May, 1989).
Jeremiah
no longer had any "freewill". His 'will' was given over to
YHVH completely.
Therefore, any coming against Jeremiah, would be really coming against
YHVH.
JOSIAH
The 16 th king of Judah, the son of AMON, and the grandson of Manasseh (2
Kings 21:23-23:30). The three decades of Josiah's reign were characterized
by peace, prosperity, and reform. Hence, they were among the happiest
years experienced by Judah. King Josiah devoted himself to pleasing God
and reinstituting Israel's observance of the Mosaic Law. That a wicked
king like Amon could have such a godly son and successor is a tribute to
the grace of God. The Bible focuses almost exclusively on Josiah's
spiritual reform, which climaxed in the 18 th year of his reign with the
discovery of the Book of the Law.
Josiah's reform actually occurred in three stages. Ascending to the throne
at age eight, he apparently was blessed with God-fearing advisors who
resisted the idolatrous influence of his father. More importantly,
however, at the age of 16 (stage one), Josiah personally "began to
seek the God of his father David" (2 Chron 34:3).
At the age of 20 (stage two), Josiah began to cleanse Jerusalem and the
land of Judah of idolatrous objects (2 Chron 34:3-7). His reform was even
more extensive than that of his predecessor, HEZEKIAH (2 Kings 18:4; 2
Chron 29:3-36). Josiah extended his cleansing of the land into the
territory of fallen Israel; at the time Israel was nominally controlled by
Assyria. Josiah personally supervised the destruction of the altars of the
Baals, the incense altars, the wooden images, the carved images, and the
molded images as far north as the cities of Naphtali. Josiah's efforts
were aided by the death of the great Assyrian king, Ashurbanipal, which
brought about a serious decline in Assyria's power and allowed Josiah
freedom to pursue his reforms.
At the age of 26 (stage three), Josiah ordered that the Temple be repaired
under the supervision of Hilkiah, the high priest. In the process, a copy
of the Book of the Law was discovered (2 Chron 34:14-15). When it was read
to Josiah, he was horrified to learn how far Judah had departed from the
law of God. This discovery provided a new momentum for the reformation
that was already in progress.
In 609 BC Josiah attempted to block Pharaoh Necho II of Egypt as
he marched north to assist Assyria in her fight with Babylon for world
supremacy. Despite the Pharaoh's assurance to the contrary, Josiah saw
Necho's northern campaign as a threat to Judah's security. When he engaged
Necho in battle at Megiddo, Josiah was seriously injured. He was returned
to Jerusalem, where he died after reigning 31 years. His death was
followed by widespread lamentation (2 Chron 35:20-27). In the New
Testament, Josiah is referred to as Josias (Matt 1:10, KJV).

JERUSALEM
As Jesus had prophesied in Matt 23, the city of Jerusalem was completely
destroyed in A.D. 70 AD. The Temple was destroyed, and the high priesthood
and the SANHEDRIN were abolished. Eventually, a Roman city was erected on
the site, and Jerusalem was regarded as forbidden ground for the Jews.
(from Nelson's Illustrated Bible Dictionary, Copyright (c)1986, Thomas
Nelson Publishers)
Let me caution you not to confuse this
"seventy years" period with the "Seventy
weeks"
(of years), Daniel 9:24.
What did Daniel understand (comprehend)?
"I Daniel understood by books the number of the years,
whereof the word of the LORD came to Jeremiah the prophet, that he
would accomplish seventy years in the desolations of Jerusalem."
Daniel understood this ‘seventy year’ period, and the reasons for
the "desolations
of Jerusalem".
Dan 9
3
And I set my face unto the Lord God, to seek by prayer and supplication,
with fasting, and sackcloth, and ashes:
4 And I prayed unto the LORD my God, and made my confession, and said, O
Lord, the great and dreadful God, keeping the covenant and mercy to them
that love him, and to them that keep his commandments;
5 We have sinned, and have committed iniquity, and have done wickedly,
and have rebelled, even by departing from thy precepts and from thy
judgments:
6 Neither have we hearkened unto thy servants the prophets, which spake
in thy name to our kings, our princes, and our fathers, and to all the
people of the land.
7 O Lord, righteousness belongeth unto thee, but unto us confusion of
faces, as at this day; to the men of Judah, and to the inhabitants of
Jerusalem, and unto all Israel, that are near, and that are far off,
through all the countries whither thou hast driven them, because of
their trespass that they have trespassed against thee.
Daniel understood just how sottish the people were (are).
And, FATHER had needed Daniel to understand these things, just as HE
would have us understand.
Jer 4:22 For my people is foolish, they have not known me;
they are sottish children, and they have none understanding: they are
wise to do evil, but to do good they have no knowledge. KJV
Dan 9
8
O Lord, to us belongeth confusion of face, to our kings, to our princes,
and to our fathers, because we have sinned against thee.
Not only the individual people, but also "to
us belongeth confusion of face, to our kings, to our princes, and to our
fathers, because we have sinned against thee."
This is to say that our civil governments, our civil laws, our rulers
who are not perfect, but are earthly flesh men (for the people wanted
flesh men kings/leaders to rule over them rather than YHVH), and all the
other people we have placed in positions of authority to rule over us in
the past and in the present.
This "confusion of face" refers to "shame".
And, "shame" often drives men even further into
"confusion".
Dan 9
9
To the Lord our God belong mercies and forgivenesses, though we have
rebelled against him;
10 Neither have we obeyed the voice of the LORD our God, to walk in his
laws, which he set before us by his servants the prophets.
"To the Lord our God belong mercies and
forgivenesses"
Our FATHER authored/created compassion and tender love. And, HE has the
capacity to forgive us of even some of the most horrific sins, yet, we
(as a people) have rebelled and still yet rebel against HIM.
It is as if we bite the very Hand that feeds us.
Why do we (earthly flesh men) do this?
Dan 9
11
Yea, all Israel have transgressed thy law, even by departing, that they
might not obey thy voice; therefore the curse is poured upon us, and the
oath that is written in the law of Moses the servant of God, because we
have sinned against him.
12 And he hath confirmed his words, which he spake against us, and
against our judges that judged us, by bringing upon us a great evil: for
under the whole heaven hath not been done as hath been done upon
Jerusalem.
13 As it is written in the law of Moses, all this evil is come upon us:
yet made we not our prayer before the LORD our God, that we might turn
from our iniquities, and understand thy truth.
"Yea, all Israel have transgressed thy law"
{Exodus, chapters 20 through 23}
Not only Israel (the 12 tribes), but also the whole world.
Yet, until the ethnos are given a genuine opportunity to hear and
understand YHVH'S unvarnished Holy Truth, they can not be held totally
responsible.
Dan 9
14
Therefore hath the LORD watched upon the evil, and brought it upon us:
for the LORD our God is righteous in all his works which he doeth: for
we obeyed not his voice.
15 And now, O Lord our God, that hast brought thy people forth out of
the land of Egypt with a mighty hand, and hast gotten thee renown, as at
this day; we have sinned, we have done wickedly.
Dan 9
16
O Lord, according to all thy righteousness, I beseech thee, let thine
anger and thy fury be turned away from thy city Jerusalem, thy holy
mountain: because for our sins, and for the iniquities of our
fathers, Jerusalem and thy people are become a reproach to all that are
about us.
Dan 9
17
Now therefore, O our God, hear the prayer of thy servant, and his
supplications, and cause thy face to shine upon thy sanctuary that is
desolate, for the Lord's sake.
For our sakes? No.
For HIS, 'Adonay YHVH'S sake.
Dan 9
18
O my God, incline thine ear, and hear; open thine eyes, and behold our
desolations, and the city which is called by thy name: for we do not
present our supplications before thee for our righteousnesses, but for
thy great mercies.
19 O Lord, hear; O Lord, forgive; O Lord, hearken and do; defer not, for
thine own sake, O my God: for thy city and thy people are called by thy
name.
Have you ever prayed to Our FATHER as honestly, as deeply, and as
sincerely as Daniel?
Have you made supplication unto FATHER'S for HIS sake?
We must realize that FATHER is so very hurt by HIS children, especially,
those of Israel (the twelve tribes) to whom HE has blessed so much.
We have tears, sympathy or empathy for man, animals, and things, but, do
we have understanding of Our FATHER'S emotions?
Dan 9
20
And whiles I was speaking, and praying, and confessing my sin and the
sin of my people Israel, and presenting my supplication before the LORD
my God for the holy mountain of my God;
21 Yea, whiles I was speaking in prayer, even the man Gabriel, whom I
had seen in the vision at the beginning, being caused to fly swiftly,
touched me about the time of the evening oblation.
22 And he informed me, and talked with me, and said, O Daniel, I am now
come forth to give thee skill and understanding.
23 At the beginning of thy supplications the commandment came forth, and
I am come to shew thee; for thou art greatly beloved: therefore
understand the matter, and consider the vision.
Gabriel ("even the man Gabriel")
OT:376
'iysh (eesh); contracted for OT:582 [or perhaps rather from an unused
root meaning to be extant]; a man as an individual or a
male person; often used as an adjunct to a more definite term (and
in such cases frequently not expressed in translation):

Gabriel is an ArchAngel, therefore, he has never been born in earthly
flesh.
It was/is against YHVH'S Law for one of HIS 'Elohiym to be born of
"the water".
We know that Satan's fallen angels (former members of YHVH'S
Governmental Hierarchy, 'Elohiym) unlawfully mated with earthly flesh
women, and created gibbors (vessels/bodies [clones] of
themselves). Yet, these fallen angels had already been condemned to
perish because they were able to commit (were held responsible because
of the greater power and knowledge that they possessed as 'Elohiym) and
did committed 'the unforgivable sin' in the 1st Heaven age/dimension.
All who have or will be "born of water",
legally (lawfully, according to YHVH'S Law) must do so by direction of
YHVH'S HOLY "Spirit", and according to HIS timing and
HOLY Plan.
John 3:5 Jesus answered, Verily, verily, I say unto thee,
Except a man be born of water
and
of
the Spirit,
he cannot enter into the kingdom of God. KJV

Why has FATHER sent the Archangel Gabriel unto Daniel?

Daniel was given the ability to hear and fully comprehend this
message, the prophecy, and the instructions which YHVH sent to him
through Gabriel.
Now, the question is, "Can we understand it completely?"
We can work on it, and do our best, while listening to that which YHVH
has given unto us in HIS HOLY Word, and through HIS HOLY SPIRIT.
2 Tim 2:15-16
15 Study to shew thyself approved unto God, a workman that needeth not
to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth.
16 But shun profane and vain babblings: for they will increase unto more
ungodliness. KJV
Eccl 1:9-11
9 The thing that hath been, it is that which shall be; and that which is
done is that which shall be done: and there is no new thing under the
sun.
10 Is there any thing whereof it may be said, See, this is new? it hath
been already of old time, which was before us.
11 There is no remembrance of former things; neither shall there be any
remembrance of things that are to come with those that shall come after.
KJV
FATHER has given unto us some good scholars.
And, some of these goodly servants unto YHVH have spoken of the
"gap theory", which comes between the first 'sixty-nine'
"weeks" of years, and the last "week" of years in
Daniel 9:24-26 and Daniel 9:27.
This is an excellent theory, which gives a good look at prophecy which
was to occur over a long period of time.
Now, since "The thing that hath been, it is that which
shall be" and "that which is done is that which shall
be done", and we know there is "no
new thing under the sun", then it is conceivable and likely that this "Seventy
weeks"
can be seen repeated, and from different viewpoints according to the
generation through YHVH'S HOLY Word.
This is the final generation of earthly flesh. We are living in the
"end times", and experiencing so much that was prophesied to
occur in these end days.
In the next portion of this study, we shall be considering this "Seventy
weeks"
of years in a little different way
than the "gap theory".
---
So, let us look at these "Seventy weeks"
in a little different way, without use of the "gap theory".
This, in no way, takes away from the longer view of the "Seventy
weeks"
utilizing the "gap theory", but only brings it into focus from
a different viewpoint for this last generation.
Dan 9
24
Seventy weeks are determined upon thy people and upon thy holy city, 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.
25 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: the street
shall be built again, and the wall, even in troublous times.
26 And after threescore and two 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.
27 And he shall confirm the covenant with many for one week: and in the
midst of the week he shall cause the sacrifice and the oblation to
cease, and for the overspreading of abominations he shall make it
desolate, even until the consummation, and that determined shall be
poured upon the desolate.

"Seventy weeks are determined upon thy
people and upon thy holy city, 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."
It is important that we understand correctly that
which was written.
Let us first look at the definitions for the words written.
This "Seventy weeks"
refers to 'seventy weeks of years'.
It is in reference to "weeks"
(counting by sevens) as
was documented in Leviticus 25. {More
on this shall be presented later in this study.}
SEVENTY WEEKS
A term that the prophet Daniel used in his prophecy of the future (Dan
9:24-27). In Daniel's vision, God revealed that the Captivity of His
people in Babylon would come to an end and they would be restored to
glory as a nation within a period of 70 weeks of seven years each-or a
total of 490 years.
Scholars interpret this seventy weeks prophecy in different ways. Some
insist that Daniel is not a book of prophecy at all but that he was
writing about events that had already happened. Others believe the
490-year period came to a grand climax with Jesus' death on the cross.
Still others believe this prophecy is yet to be fulfilled in the future.
