The Seventy weeks prophecy of Daniel 9 is an amazing prophecy, that: (1) Gives a Probationary time line for the Nation of Israel to Repent of their sins, refrain from transgressing the Everlasting Covenant that God made with them AND also the return to Statues, Ordinances and Judgments in the Law of Moses. At the End of this Seventy weeks probationer period, if the Nation fail to return to God; to keep his Covenant that he enjoined with them, and to perform the Statues, ordinances and judgment that were written in the Law of Moses. Then they would cease to be a Nation before God and thus would no longer be fit to be called his chosen people. (2) Accurately predicting the time of the Messiah's arrival, the institution of the Promised Covenant, the sacrificial death of the Messiah, and things that the Messiah would do at different time in his ministry. |

Now, let us dive into the studying of this amazing prophecy.

DANIEL 9:24 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. |

How manys days are their in Seventy weeks? It's a simple Math... First of all we have to find out how many days are there in a week. And if you were to read Genesis 1 & 2 you will see that there are Seven days in a week. So then you would have to simply multiply the Seven days x Seventy which will give you 490 days |

But this time line that the angel gave Daniel is a prophetic time line, meaning that the days mentioned are NOT Literal days, rather its a prophetic day. And if you were to read the Book of Numbers where God told the Israelities through Moses that he was going to let them wander the wilderness for forty days and Moses then said to the people, that those Forty days represents Forty years NUMBERS 14:34 34. After the number of the days in which ye searched the land, even forty days, each day for a year, shall ye bear your iniquities, even forty years, and ye shall know my breach of promise. |

Also, God told Ezekeil that he is going to punish the Tribe of Judah for forty days but he was speaking forty prophetic days, which amounts to forty years. EZEKIEL 4:6 6. And when thou hast accomplished them, lie again on thy right side, and thou shalt bear the iniquity of the house of Judah forty days: I have appointed thee each day for a year. |

Bible Scholars both Jewish and non Jewish calls this principle of a day representing a year. The day-year principle. |

@elijah_2 | 24 March 11 | |
Therefore: In applying the day-year principle to the 490 days time line we will get NOT 490 literal days rather we will get 490 years

So God gave the Nation of Israel a 490 years probationer period to return to him; to return to his covenant with them AND the statues, ordinances and judgments laid out in the Book of the Law or else they will ceased to be a Nation before him. And they will no longer be fit to be called his people.
