(Let The Reader Understand) ?
I wish I could think of a quicker way to explain it.
But when I read this:
I doubt that you'll like my explanation.
Me and a couple other guys figured this abomination business out in a forum post one time. It was one of the most exciting forum experiences that I've ever had. The one guy was Russian Orthodox or something. He hated the USA. That got in the way of his understanding.
The best way I can think to explain it is, is to let the reader figure it out for him or herself. Just take the prophetic time period, the 1290 days, and reverse engineer it for the event that caused the USA to become the "holy place", (a place prepared by God).
But first, notice how Luke removes the Abomination from the Olivet Discourse, and places it in Chapter 17. This is the biggie hint. This is important.
Matthew 24 mentions the "Abomination" STANDING IN THE HOLY PLACE.
Then we get this:
"Let no one on the housetop go down to take anything out of the house. Let no one in the field go back to get their cloak.
Luke moves these verses to Chapter 17, right after the mention of the "days of Lot".
28“It was the same in the days of Lot. People were eating and drinking, buying and selling, planting and building.
29But the day Lot left Sodom, fire and sulfur rained down from heaven and destroyed them all.
31On that day no one who is on the housetop, with possessions inside, should go down to get them. Likewise, no one in the field should go back for anything.
See it? Luke replaces the "abomination of desolation", with the "days of Lot".
Daniel 12:11 is just another answer offered to the original question:
“How long shall it be till the end of these wonders?”
Daily/AoD<-------1290Days------->EoW
(At the end of these wonders the sun will be darkened and the moon will not give it's light)
Remember that a "law", or a legal decision can be "set up", or made to "stand".
