Since we have been discussing
the abomination that maketh desolate in Daniel, I thought I might include this prophetic and historic challenge for the readers, so that all may learn
how the following prophecy was fulfilled by Judas Maccabeus.
Today, that event is celebrated by the Jews as
Hanukkah.
Dan.12[
11] And from the time that the daily sacrifice shall be taken away, and
the abomination that maketh desolate set up, there shall be a thousand two hundred and ninety
[1290] days.
[
12]
Blessed is he that
waiteth, and
cometh to the thousand three hundred and five and thirty
[1335] days. When one does the math of 1335 minus 1290 the answer is 45 days.
Spiritually speaking, do you know what that time of "restoration" points to?
Ans. The "Blessing" of the Day of Pentecost.
Oh, you don't think so? Then listen to Jesus:
Acts.1[
4] And, being assembled together with them, commanded them that they should not depart from Jerusalem, but
wait for the promise of the Father, which, saith he, ye have heard of me.
That prophecy was fulfilled, but from out of Daniel you
WON'T hear that from popular "church-ianity".
Daniel 8[
13] Then I heard one saint speaking, and another saint said unto that certain saint which spake, How long shall be the vision concerning the daily sacrifice, and the transgression of desolation, to give both the sanctuary and the host [army of Israel] to be trodden under foot?
[14] And he said unto me, Unto two thousand and three hundred [2300] days; then shall the sanctuary be cleansed [restored].
Please see 1 Maccabees 4:36-61.
Now, since the books of 1&2 Maccabees do have the
actual Jewish
dates recorded, one can actually do the math for an exact time line of
"the abomination that maketh desolate", that was
committed by Antiochus Epiphanes, and when Judas Maccabeus
cleansed/restored the sanctuary.
For all that detail, one must now include the
1290 days and the
1335 days, as prophesied in Daniel 12:9-13, and do the math according to the books of Maccabees. Does that take work in studying it?
Yes, it does!!
I find it strange that
present day "
church-ianity" has no understanding or explanation for these prophetic and historic time lines, and therefore ignores and excludes them completely.
Why is it they never seem to discuss or study it?
The simple answer is it doesn't fit into their sloppy and BOGUS narrative!!
Did you know that
the book of Daniel was for Israel, as the book of Revelation is for Christ's "Born Again Church"?
When the angel Gabriel spoke to Daniel about "the end", he was meaning
the END of Israel, as being the preferential people of God, and
not the end of time itself.
Do not swallow the slop that popular "church-ianty" is feeding you! Do
your own study and research.
