A New Private Interpretation of the Last 7 Years Falsified

There is a new interpretation doing the rounds among some obsessed with Jesuits. Just because one Jesuit had a certain „futurist” interpretation of the future promises and Bible prophecies in Revelation and Daniel, it appears they have thrown out the baby with the bathwater.

Here is the key prophecy in Daniel 9 where the angel Gabriel gives him the answer to his prayer for “thy people and thy holy city!”

 24            Seventy weeks [sevens!] 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.

9:25         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 [62] weeks: the street shall be built again, and the wall, even in troublous times.

9:26         And after threescore and two [62] 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.

9:27         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.
