I dont, Daniel does, its called context....heretic.
AND Jesus NEVER "prevailed" (by force) seven years of anything.
Indeed you expose yourself to knowing absolutly nothing, so this gives me great pleasure
"gabar” throughout scripture is used in connection with the House of Judah and the House of Joseph and their restoration.
Zechariah 10:6 And
I will strengthen [gabar #H1396] the house of Yahuwdah (Judah), and I will save the house of Yahuwceph (Joseph), and I will bring them again to place them; for I have mercy upon them: and they shall be as though I had not cast them off: for I am YHWH their Elohiym, and will hear them.
Zechariah 10:12And.
I will strengthen [gabar #H1396] them in YHWH; and they shall walk up and down in his name, says YHWH.
Isaiah 42:13 YHWH shall go forth as a mighty man, he shall stir up jealousy like a man of war: he shall cry, yea, roar;
he shall prevail [gabar #H1396] against his enemies.
1stChronicles 5:2 For Yahuwdah (Judah)
prevailed [gabar #H1396} above his brethren, and
of him came the chief ruler ; but the birthright was Yahuwceph’s (Joseph’s).
Genesis 49:26
The blessings of your father have prevailed [gabar #H1396] above the blessings of my progenitors unto the utmost bound of the everlasting hills: they shall be on the head of Yahuwceph (Joseph), and on the crown of the head of him that was separate from his brethren.
Now “Gabar” has only three Hebrew Letters
Gimmel = Foot or burden-bearer, to gather, carry away.
Beyt = the House of Yisra’el.
Resh = the head of a man, first, beginning, chief ruler.
The very word "Gabar" pictures Christ.
Lets look at the next word "briyth" (covenant)
There is an established rule of interpreting scripture and this is called - The Law of First Mention. In otherwords the first time that a concept is presented in scripture, it then becomes the precedent for when the same concept is presented again in other scriptures.
For example, Genesis 15:9 is the first time the concept of
briyth is used
Genesis 15:9 And he said unto him, Take me an heifer of three years old, and a she goat of three years old, and a ram of three years old, and a turtledove, and a young pigeon.
Heifer, Ram and Goat ised for passover and Christ our messiah portrayed the role of all three of these animal sacrifices during his earthly ministry of 3.5 years.
Now of we go to Genesis 15:10
And he took unto him all these, and divided them in the midst, and laid each piece one against another
And what does Daniel 9:27 tell us that Messiah would do? It says that he would
“cause the sacrifices to cease in the midst of the week
Now the next bit is important as its a prophecy that would concern the House of Judah and the House of Joseph being divided as the covenant jas been breached. The animal pieces in Abraham’s covenant were
divided in order to restore the
schism in both houses ( the house of Judah and the house of Ephraim - the christian house) and this is also why
in the midst of the week the last seven years of Daniel’s 70th Week was
divided into two parts of 3.5 years.
Christ fulfilled only
“half” of Daniel’s 70th Week and then he will fulfill the other
“half” through his Two Witnesses, so that both families will no longer be
divided
Hence the below reenactment.
Genesis 15:17 And it came to pass, that, when the sun went down, and it was dark, behold a smoking furnace, and a burning lamp that passed between those pieces.
God gave Abraham details of this covenant by telling him that his descendants would become more numerous than the stars of the heaven and the sand on the seashore. In other words, Abraham would have descendants from the Gentiles nations who would be grafted into the family through the blood of Christ.
Genesis 22:17 That in blessing I will bless you, and in multiplying I will multiply your seed as the stars of the heaven,and as the sand which is upon the sea shore;
And this brings us to the
Daniel 9:27 “many”
Mark 14:24 And he said unto them,
This is my blood of the new covenant, which is shed for MANY.
Now what Marcus fails to grasp is the work Christ come for and that ultimately did not get.
In the story of Jacob, Rachel amd Leah
Jacob worked for
one week (seven years) for Rachel but Jacob was tricked into Leah. Jacob didnt get what he worked for. Loke wise did not get what he came for:
John 1:11 He came unto his own, and his own received him not.
So Christ come for the lost sheep of Israel who were gentiles now being divorced from God and that is when he was given in marriage first to the Gentiles (a symbol of Leah).
We find another prophetic type
King Solomon who was ready to slice a baby in half with a sword.
Both the woman in this story were harlots, just like the house of Judah and the House of Ephraim.
The dead baby represents the crucified Messiah but the living baby represents the resurrected Messiah who is able to redeem these two harlots.
The child represents the inheritance, and as long as both women are in rivalry, the kingdom will continue to be divided and it cannot stand
The woman who loved the child was like the“wise virgin” who would then inherit the “the entire living child” and not a dead child divided into two parts.
Now you can see why Christ had to
divide the two periods of
seven years that Jacob worked for Leah & Rachel, and why he was
cutting in half those two periods of
seven years. In other words, he was
“cutting the covenant” in two pieces, just like God did with Abraham.
In no other place in the whole of scripture do we find that the Anti Christ
“confirms” a covenant for one week.
Scripture demands we must have
two or three witnesses elsewhere in scripture to make a doctrine out of this heretic theory.
Marcus is completely out of his depth concerning these matters. Perhaps pick up a bible and read it next time!
