AMPLIFIED 2015 | Daniel 9:26 "Then after the sixty-two weeks [of years] the Anointed One will be cut off [and denied His Messianic kingdom] and have nothing [and no one to defend Him], and the people of the [other] prince who is to come will destroy the city and the sanctuary. Its end will come with a flood; even to the end there will be war; desolations are determined. [Is 53:7-9; Nah 1:8; Matt 24:6-14] |
Bible Question:
Please explain... "and the people of the prince who is to come will destroy the city and the sanctuary" and "its end will come with a flood; even to the end there will be war; desolations are determined." |
Bible Answer: "it is the prince who is to come who is the subject of the last clause, and it is his end that will come with a flood, not the end of the city." 'THE TEXT 'Following the Hebrew word order, a more accurate and literal translation of verse 26 would read: 'After the sixty-two sevens, the Messiah will be cut off and have nothing, and the city and the sanctuary will be destroyed by the people of a prince who is to come, and his end shall come with a flood; the war shall continue to the end; destruction is decreed. 'Notice that it is the prince who is to come who is the subject of the last clause, and it is his end that will come with a flood, not the end of the city. Therefore, clearly it is this same prince who is to come who is the object of verse 27, not the Messiah as some would want us to believe. The "one who makes desolate" of verse 27 is a future leader who will confirm a covenant (treaty) with many people for 7 years. After 3-1/2 years, in the middle of the "week," he will put a stop to the temple sacrifices and set up what Jesus called the "abomination of desolation" (Matt. 24:15).'
