But what about # 3? Was the last 7 years set aside just for the Messiah to complete His mission? Why crucified in the “midst of the 7 years? You are certainly right about 8:25. But he, the one who goes against God is revealed not only in chapter 8 but in 7 and 11. But that discussion should...

Thank you and I will look at your response this evening, best wishes!

David, sorry but you are right, Scripture does interpret Scripture. But more often than not, it is usually SO difficult to find the pieces that fit along side of them. Do you agree that God had set aside the last 7 years for Christ? (This is directly connected to the 3.5 year issue you selected).?

Thanks David, but I noticed that you had commented on more than one element. This will cause us, especially me, to provide a lengthy response that is more like a “buckshot “ approach rather than a rifle fire that is focused on one target. Ok, you have selected # 3 which deals with the “midst of...

Thanks David and if you do not mind, I would like to discuss our (all within this forum that are participating) different interpretations on this very difficult topic. There are so many separate elements mentioned in your reply. They certainly do interact or connect with each other but perhaps...

Reflective narrative: The Restorative and the Destructive verses - A Prophetic Divide Before continuing into the next two verses—arguably among the most controversial in all of Scripture—it is vital to pause and recognize the prophetic structure God has intentionally given Daniel in chapter 9...

Marty, here is just a cut / paste narrative found in the chapter 7 commentary on Daniel. The little horn cannot come until the cross that occurs during the reign of pagan Rome - the 4th kindom. Reflective Narrative: Hidden in the Feet, Revealed in the Horns: God’s Law and God’s People and the...

Marty, I apologize, I promised I would sent you a cut / paste for trhe 4 riders... here are the last two.... Revelation 6:5-6 (Third seal) 5 When He opened the third seal, I heard the third living creature say, “Come and see.” So I looked, and behold, a black horse, and he who sat on it had a...

Thanks Marty… if you would, please let me know who you believe the little horn is and when did / does he arrive. Also, what specifically do you disagree with in my interpretation that the papacy is the little horn. Thanks so much and you and your family are always in my prayers. God bless always.

Yes, the prophecies are FOR YOUR PEOPLE (Daniel’ people) and FOR YOUR CITY (Daniel’s city). Because they were part of God’s plan of restoring them back to Jerusalem - Daniel is written TO THEM, but they (Jews) are not the ones that will be fulfilling them. Jesus came TO THEM TO FULFILL HIS...

Well, I wish the best for you but I would respectfully ask that you might consider getting into a Bible study — there are plenty online that you can choose from, and I hope there are groups where you live that you can attend. You are indeed missing out on so much of meaning of His Word. Many...

Do you are completely ignoring the 40 days in the desert and His attendance of the 4 Passovers? How can one arrive at the end of their ministry? Who is teaching you?

Do you realize the 70 weeks of years prophecy is a literal 490 years broken into 3 sections- 7 then, 62 and the final 1 week? And each “week” is 7 years long? So, AFTER the completion of the 7 and 62 weeks (483 literal years), THEN THE MESSIAH. So, the Messiah ARRIVES…. The very first thing...

I can assure you that the Holy Spirit did reveal the interpretations to me during my long study of Daniel. Now what?

Marty, here is the draft for the red horse of chapter 6: Revelation 6:3-4 (second seal) 3 When He opened the second seal, I heard the second living creature saying, “Come and see.” 4 Another horse, fiery red, went out. And it was granted to the one who sat on it to take peace from the earth...

Thank you for sharing this. I have indeed read similar interpretations like Mr. Fortners. There is no consensus among scholars regarding the identity of the white horse or most of Revelation. Both Daniel and Revelation are more than difficult to unpack. But I do see the structure of Revelation a...

I don’t believe we are in disagreement here. The Book of Daniel is a prophetic writing that begins in the context of Jerusalem’s fall and the exile of its people to Babylon around 606 BC. From that point, Daniel records not only the events that unfold during the seventy-year captivity, but also...

Marty, here is a draft for the first horseman in Revelation - the white horse. I will post the next horse tomorrow but I would like your (and anyone's) thoughts on this. Thanks. Revelation 6:1-2 (First seal) 1 Now I saw when the Lamb opened one of the seals; and I heard one of the four living...

I would say that Daniel may be approximately 80% symbolic / prophetic while Revelation is around 90 - 95 % symbolic. Despite “today’s accepted interpretations” for both books, Daniel is not a history book and should not be interpreted as such! For the most part, “today’s accepted...
