Let me ask you this if I can stop laughing first at your proposterous proposed math. This 3.5 years, are they literal years? If yes, how many literal days does 3.5 years involve? Can they fit within a time period involving 7 literal days? After all, you yourself insist 490 literal days are meant.
The time period of (the two witnesses) is 1260 days, the time period of (the beast) is 42 months, the very same time frame in "Parallel Teachings"
Daniel's literal 69 weeks or 483 literal days take place "before" (the beast) is revealed in Jerusalem, in the middle of the literal 70th week he is revealed as the 42 month or 1260 day or 3.5 year tribulation begins, simple, clear, easy to understand my claim that's in chronological order
Daniel 9:24-27, Seventy "Future" Literal Weeks Explained?
Daniel's 70 weeks are literal 7 day periods, or 490 "Future" literal days.
If Daniel meant 490 years he would have written
(Four Hundred Ninety Years)
Daniel had no restrictions in "Writing" exact numerology as seen below.
Daniel 6:1KJV
It pleased Darius to set over the kingdom
an hundred and twenty princes, which should be over the whole kingdom;
Daniel 8:14KJV
And he said unto me, Unto
two thousand and three hundred days; then shall the sanctuary be cleansed.
Daniel 12:11KJV
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 days.
Below in Daniel 10:2-3 we see just another example of Daniel's literal weeks, as Daniel mourned and fasted for 3 literal weeks or 21 days.
Daniel 10:2-3KJV
2 In those days I Daniel was mourning
three full weeks.
3 I ate no pleasant bread, neither came flesh nor wine in my mouth, neither did I anoint myself at all, till
three whole weeks were fulfilled.
Below in Daniel 9:24-27 we see 70 literal "Future" weeks or 490 days.
When the "Future" call/commandment goes out in Jerusalem to build unto the Jewish Meshiach/Messiah that they wait for (They Denied Jesus Christ) this will start the 7 week period in preparing to build.
62 literal weeks will be in building, and Meshiach/Messiah will be cut off by the future armies surrounding Jerusalem, this stops the building. Luke 21:24, Rev 11:2
The 70th literal week will see (The Beast/The Antichrist) revealed in making a covenant, and in the middle of this literal week he proclaims to be Meshiach/Messiah God to the Jews, and Jesus returned to the apostate church, to start a Millennium on earth.
The 3.5 year tribulation starts at this time, where (The Beast) and (Two Witnesses) will be present on this earth together, a remake of Moses/Aaron against Pharoh of Egypt in literal plagues brought by the (Two Witnesses) upon this world as often as they will Revelation 11:6, the sealed church is protected from these plagues
Daniel 9:24-27KJV
24
Seventy weeks 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.
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 weeks: the street shall be built again, and the wall, even in troublous times.
26 And after threescore and two 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.
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.
