Daniel nine is perhaps the most important chapter in the entire Bible regarding God's timing for all eschatological events. Because of this, it's also one of the most contested passages by those whose view of last things is challenged by its teachings.
In this episode we'll look briefly at Daniel's prayer of repentance and set the stage for the seventy weeks prophecy by talking about the ministry of King Cyrus and Jeremiah's prophecy to use him as a catalyst for rebuilding the Temple in Jerusalem. A series of returns would lead to the decree of Artaxerxes and the inauguration of the seventy weeks prophecy.
Not only does this important passage point to the timing of Christ's triumphal entry, but also points to the crucifixion, the destruction of Jerusalem by the Romans, the rebuilding and regathering of Israel as a nation, and the covenant of the prince who is to come that inaugurates the tribulation.
