Hi, my questions today refers to the 7 years of tribulation that will take place in the future. From the source of the series of movies called the "left behind series". They say he will confirm a convenant with many for 7 years. Now when I actually open up the bible and look into this reference and look up daniel 9:27. This is what the "new rivesed standard version" bible says: "He shall make a strong covenant with many for one week, and for half of the week he shall make a sacrifice and offering cease; and in their place shall be an abomination that desolates, until the decreed end is poured out upon the desolator." Why does the bible say "one week" and other sources say 7 years of tribulation? Correct me if I'm wrong and which is accurate? Thank you. |

'HOW LONG IS SEVENTY WEEKS? 'How long is seventy weeks? The Hebrew word for "weeks" is shavuim and is best translated "sevens." This phrase refers to a period of seventy sevens, and it can mean days, weeks, months or years. How are we to know to which it refers? By the context...'

I believe there are two words of interest as identified by John Walvoord's "Daniel, The Key to Prophetic Revelation", p.271, and defined by Strongs, being shibrah H7651 (masculine, - a less concise term), and shabuwa #H7620 (feminine, - a more concise term). I presume that the author intentionally used two time lines, rather than the one which translators portend. Thus one should consider that the seven "shibrah" and the sixty-two "shibrah" are not weeks, but the seventieth "shabuwa" is a week. Accordingly, one should evaluate whether Daniel 9:2 cites an OT book for confirmation. If so, then the book of Psalms is proposed by J.R. Church, "Hidden Prophecies in the Psalms", representing this 19th book for the 1900's, with respective chapters associated to the years. Given the above, if Psalms 23 (1923) is a foundational chapter, and Psalms 24 (1924) depicts the "going forth of the word to establish and rebuild Jerusalem", and David Ben-Gurion arising to prominance in 1931, then we should find a peace accord in 1993 and an assassination after 1993 (i.e., 1995). The end of this peace accord should occur in 2000. The anti-christ will come after this seventieth week. So to answer your question, Daniel 9:2 states "years", which represent a 365-day span of time. The seventieth "week" is the Dayton/Oslo peace accord which is a seven-year span of time. Apparently neither of these time lines is associated with the 42 months of tribulation as described in Revelation 13. |
