No prophecy of the scripture is of any private interpretation.
The 11th chapter of the book of Daniel is not a departure from the prophetic chain fround in that which is taught in the 2nd, the 7th, and the 8th chapters.
After this I saw in the night visions, and behold a fourth beast [Pagan Rome] dreadful and terrible, and strong exceedingly; and it had great iron teeth: it devoured and brake in pieces, and stamped the residue with the feet of it: and it was diverse from all the beasts that were before it; and it had ten horns.
I considered the horns, and, behold, there came up among them another little horn before whom there were three of the first horns plucked up by the roots: and, behold, in this horn were eyes like the eyes of man and a mouth speaking great things.
{Daniel 7:7-8}
…
Thus he said, The fourth beast shall be the fourth kingdom upon earth, which shall be diverse from all kingdoms, and shall devour the whole earth, and shall tread it down, and break it in pieces.
And the ten horns out of this kingdom are ten kings that shall arise: and another [Papal Rome] shall rise after them; and he shall be diverse (claiming authority over church and state craft; the spiritual sword and the temporal sword) from the first, and he shall subdue three kings.
(The Heruli 493 A.D.; The Vandals 534 A.D.; The Ostrogoths 538 A.D.)
And he shall speak great words against the most High, and shall wear out the saints of the most High, and think to change times and laws and they shall be given into his hand until a time and times and the dividing of time.
(Same dispensation of the time of the Gentiles; and the time of the two witnesses.)
But the judgment shall sit, and they shall take away his dominion, to consume and to destroy it unto the end.
{Daniel 7:23-26}
Historicism is biblical
Declaring the end from the beginning and from ancient times the things that are not yet done, saying, My counsel shall stand, and I will do all my pleasure:
{Isaiah 46:10}
“Write the things which thou hast seen, and the things which are, and the things which shall be hereafter;”
{Revelation 1:19}
Prophetic continuance is histrorisim.
And when thou hast accomplished them, lie again on thy right side, and thou shalt bear the iniquity of the house of Judah forty days: 👉I have appointed thee each day for a year.
{Ezekiel 4:6}
After the number of the days in which ye searched the land, even forty days,
👉each day for a year, shall ye bear your iniquities, even forty years, and ye shall know my breach of promise.
{Numbers 14:34}
"And when ye shall see Jerusalem compassed with armies, [67-70 A.D.]
then know that the desolation (Dan 9:27) thereof is nigh.
Then let them which are in Judaea flee to the mountains; and let them which are in the midst of it depart out; and let not them that are in the countries enter thereinto.
For these be the days of vengeance, that all things which are written [Dan 9:26-27] may be fulfilled.
But woe unto them that are with child, and to them that give suck, in those days! for there shall be great distress in the land, and wrath upon this people.
And they shall fall by the edge of the sword, and shall be led away captive into all nations: and Jerusalem shall be trodden down of the Gentiles,
👉until the Times Of The Gentiles be fulfilled.”
{Luke 21:20-24}
But the court which is without the temple leave out, and measure it not; for it is given unto the Gentiles: and the holy city shall they tread under foot
👉forty and two months.
Same time dispensation as,
And I will give power unto my TWO WITNESSES and they shall prophesy
👉a thousand two hundred and threescore days, clothed in sackcloth.
{Revelation 11:2-3}
Same time dispensation as,
And the ten horns out of this kingdom are ten kings that shall arise: and another ["little horn" Dan 7:8] shall rise after them; and he shall be diverse from the first, and he shall subdue three kings.
And he shall speak great words against the most High, and shall wear out the saints of the most High, and think to change times and laws: and they shall be given into his hand until 👉a time and times and the dividing of time.
{Daniel 7:24-25}
–Time of the Gentiles:
A time = 360
Times = 720
The dividing of time (an half Dan 12:7) =180.
= 1,260 prophetic days = 1,260 years.
forty and two months = 1,260 days or a thousand two hundred and threescore days.
–From 538 – 1798 A.D. ("the time of the end") when this beast received a deadly wound, but the deadly wound was healed in 1929 when this false church's secular sword was restored unto her, although her spiritual sword she never lost, for she boast that she is the mother church.
And I saw one of his heads as it were wounded to death; and his deadly wound was healed: and 👉all the world wondered after the beast.
{Revelation 13:3}
The beast that thou sawest was, and is not; and shall ascend out of the bottomless pit, and go into perdition: and they that dwell on the earth 👉shall wonder, whose names were not written in the book of life from the foundation of the world, when they behold the beast that was, and is not, and yet is.
{Revelation 17:8}
Historicism (prophetic continuance) principle:
And when thou hast accomplished them, lie again on thy right side, and thou shalt bear the iniquity of the house of Judah forty days: 👉I have appointed thee each day for a year.
{Ezekiel 4:6}
After the number of the days in which ye searched the land, even forty days,
👉each day for a year, shall ye bear your iniquities, even forty years, and ye shall know my breach of promise.
{Numbers 14:34}
And the vision of the evening and the morning which was told is true: wherefore shut thou up the vision; for it shall be for many days. (2,300 prophetic days = years)
And I Daniel fainted, and was sick certain days; afterward I rose up, and did the king's business; and I was astonished at the vision,
👉but none understood it.
{Daniel 8:26-27}
In the first year (years later in the 68th year of the exile) of his [Darius] reign I Daniel understood by books the number of the years, whereof the word of YHWH came to Jeremiah the prophet, that he would accomplish seventy years in the desolations of Jerusalem.
{Daniel 9:2}
…
Yea, whiles I was speaking in prayer, even the man Gabriel, whom I had seen in the vision at the beginning, being caused to fly swiftly, touched me about the time of the evening oblation.
And he informed me, and talked with me, and said, O Daniel, I am now come forth to give thee skill and understanding
At the beginning of thy supplications the commandment came forth, and I am come to shew thee; for thou art greatly beloved: therefore understand the matter, and consider the vision (of the 2,300 years in Daniel 8).
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, [49 years] and threescore and two weeks: the street shall be built again, and the wall, even in troublous times.
{Daniel 9:21-23,25}
<>
The Jews do not deny the first part of this prophecy, (and that the day for a year principle applies to it) it's only after threescore and two weeks, do they deny the coming of their Messiah.
Jesus Christ did not come in a vacuum.
He confirmed his new covenant promised in (Jer 31:31-34) for three and a half years, after his anointing by the Holy Spirt at the beginning of his ministry. Like king David before, Jesus would be anointed 'again' at his death, when he became our passover Lamb in the middle of the seventieth week, with three and a half years remaining (grace) of the final seventieth week under the covenant God made with their fathers "Thy people".
This is why the gospel was preach exclusively within the boards of the promise land, before Christ chose Paul to bring his gospel unto the Gentile nation to bring them into the common wealth of Israel (Jeshurun his people).
<>
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.
{Daniel 9:26}
^
This is not part of the seventy weeks.
It's the consequences of the abominations made in the temple, after Christ had put an end to the sacrifices and the oblations of the daily. It was a prince (lower-case) of Rome (the fourth beast of Daniel 7) who stood in the holy place in 70 A.D.
☆The seventy weeks are determined from the terminus que [457 B.C.] of the 2,300 evenings and mornings, and the cleansing of the sanctuary (judgment 'yom kippur')
👉in heaven.
And I saw another angel fly in the midst of heaven, having the everlasting gospel to preach unto them that dwell on the earth, and to every nation, and kindred, and tongue, and people,
Saying with a loud voice, Fear God, and give glory to him; for the hour of his judgment is come and worship him that made heaven, and earth, and the sea, and the fountains of waters
{Revelation 14 6-7}
Daniel 9:27….is speaking of the new covenant that Jesus Christ our promised Messiah confirms with many, for three and a half years of the seventieth week, (not as the unlearned, who give this covenant to the antichrist) from his anointing~baptism at the age of thirty, to his sacrifice and death, and resurrection when he was thirty three years of age, for the remission of sins.
By so much was Jesus made a surety of a better testament. [G1242]
{Hebrews 7:22}
But now hath he obtained a more excellent ministry, by how much also he is the mediator of a better covenant, [G1242] which was established upon better promises.
{Hebrews 8:6}
For this is the covenant [G1242] that I will make with the house of Israel after those days, saith the Lord; I will put my laws into their mind, and write them in their hearts: and I will be to them a God, and they shall be to me a people:
{Hebrews 8:10}
For where a testament [G1242] is, there must also of necessity be the death of the testator.
For a testament [G1242] is of force after men are dead: otherwise it is of no strength at all while the testator liveth.
{Hebrews 9:16-17}
For this is my blood of the new testament, [G1242] which is shed for many for the remission of sins.
{Matthew 26:28}
And he said unto them, This is my blood of the new testament, [G1242] which is shed for many.
{Mark 14:24}
Likewise also the cup after supper, saying, This cup is the new testament [G1242] in my blood, which is shed for you.
{Luke 22:20}
Seventy weeks are determined [cut off of 2,300 prophetic days = years] upon thy people and upon thy holy city
…to finish the transgression, and
(Jn 19:30; Col 2:13-14; Is 53:12)
…to make an end of sins, and
(Jn 1:29; 1Jn 3:5; Jn 5:14; Jn 8:11; Rom 6:6-7; 1 Cor 15:3; Heb 9:26-28; Heb 10:14)
…to make reconciliation for iniquity, and
(Rom 5:10; 2 Cor 5:18-19; Col 1:20-22; Eph 2:14-16)
…to bring in everlasting righteousness, and
(Matt 3:15; Rom 3:21-22; Rom 8:4; 2 Cor 5:21)
…to seal up the vision and prophecy, and
(Matt 3:13-17)
…to anoint the most Holy.
(Jn 1:32-34; Mark 1:15; Acts 10:38; Luke 4:18; Is 61:1)
{Daniel 9:24} < The context
And he [the Messiah] shall confirm the covenant with many for ONE WEEK: and IN THE MIDST OF THE WEEK (the seventieth) he [Christ] SHALL CAUSE THE SACRIFICE AND THE OBLATION TO CEASE, and for the overspreading of abominations (the continued temple sacrifices, after Christ one perfect sacrifice.) he shall make it desolate, even until the consummation, and that determined shall be poured upon the desolate. ("Behold your house has been left unto you desolate.")
{Daniel 9:27}
7 weeks + 62 weeks + one week = 70 weeks, to anoint the most Holy, and to seal up the vision and the prophecy.
Then Paul and Barnabas waxed bold, and said, It was necessary that the word of God should first have been spoken to you: (for there were three and a half years remaining grace for "thy people" of the final week.) but seeing ye put it from you, and judge yourselves unworthy of everlasting life lo, we turn to the Gentiles.
For so hath the Lord commanded us, saying, I have set thee to be a light of the Gentiles, that thou shouldest be for salvation unto the ends of the earth.
And when the Gentiles heard this, they were glad, and glorified the word of the Lord: and as many as were ordained to eternal life believed.
{Acts 13:46-48}
To fulfil the word of the LORD by the mouth of Jeremiah, until the land had enjoyed her sabbaths for as long as she lay desolate she kept sabbath, to fulfil threescore and ten years.
{2 Chronicles 36:21}
For 490 years, equal to 70 sabbath rest for the land every seventh year, that Israel and Judah transgressed the law of God.
This is why they received seventy years exiled in bondage in the land of Babylon.
There was no gap in their seventy years in exil, and there is no gap in the 490 years of transgressing the law of God, and there most certainly was no gap unto the coming of the Messiah who did not come in a vacuum, but rather confirmed his covenant with many for there and a half years, and in the land of Israel's inheritance.
The stoning of Steven is when probation closed on the covenant that God made with the their fathers, exactly three and a half years after Jesus Christ, our passover was sacrificed for us, and the gospel of the kingdom of heaven went out unto the Gentiles also.
Your teachings on the Book of Daniel and the book of Revelation flows so smoothly together. Thank you.
I praise God for you and your teaching Rabbi
Just so you understand, the kings of the south and north, are not Egypt and Syria.
Shalom Dr… thank you for your insightful teaching of the book of Daniel. I have used much of it in my small group study as we go through each chapter. May our Father bless you and continue to fill you with the Ruach Hakodesh.
Must be where Crowley rephrased and took upon himself the, "Do what thou wilt." Trash that's permeated music for so long. Makes sense. I don't understand why it's thought that studying out of early scholar's work, esp. for certain passages, makes Biblical sense. We know that there are some passages that God will only reveal understanding as the time draws nearer. Sometimes pastor's are confusing.
Thank you so very much Respected Dr. Baruch Sir our Moreh 🎉🎉🎉💕💕Joy Christie from India
What bible translation is he using?
Thank you Lord
Wow, in one point you are wrong. Daniel 11, 1 there is not Daniel speaking and telling, it's the angel Gabriel, who is talking. And the angel told to Daniel, that he (the angel Gabriel) was with Darius in his first year to strengthen and empower him. That is really clear. ^^
From Daniel 10, 20 all the was through und to Daniel 12, 4 is online the angel Gabriel speaking and he tells Daniel all the things, which were yet to come.^^
Can't wait to hear the follow up…thank you God bless you.
Daniel cleary talks about Alexander the Great and his generals who take over.
English captions please
"the Prince of Persia which withstood Gabriel" in Daniel chapter 10 indicates that there is a spiritual "Persia" (Prince of Persia).
I believe that has something to do with the interpretation of this text as well as others in the Minor Prophets.
Here is wisdom and understanding; we must buy the power of the Holy Spirit be able to discern Kings and kingdoms whether they are earthly or spiritual in order to properly understand the full context and the meaning of every text.
Thank you for your teaching brother God bless you in all that you do for the kingdom of heaven which is near at hand.
awesome! Shabbat Shalom
Jesus, while remaining in Heaven, has returned for us as foretold. The end has come according to the Book of Daniel. We have entered the "age to come" foretold by Jesus in the Harmonious Gospel of St. Mark, chapter 10, verse 30, on December 30, 2018 A.D., the Glorious Manifestation of Our King, Lord, and Savior.
This comment provided on the 323rd day of the 2nd year of the General Resurrection of the Dead.
The specifics of the Book of Daniel include the foretelling of the exact days of Jesus' baptism, crucifixion, and return in glory.
There is no more antichrist because the spirit of antichrist was destroyed by the breath of Jesus' mouth at the glory of His coming.
Almost two years after Christ's return, many people are still talking about looking for an event which has already come.
As God is the cause of all things, it can be seen that the Father in Heaven has literally blessed His Son with a Christmas present last year. the corona virus. If you believe in Jesus, the virus is harmless; if you don't believe in Jesus, you deserve it.
It also might pose a question to some, what are we going to get for Christmas this year. (?)
Remember, the Great Flood began with just one drop of rain.

Because in the beginning was the Word, there is first evidence of Christ's return in prophecy. I was shown this beginning in 2012 A.D.
According to the Book of Daniel, Jesus has already returned and we have entered the "age to come" foretold by Jesus in the Harmonious Gospel of St. Mark, chapter ten, verse thirty on December 30, 2018 A.D., the Glorious Manifestation of Our King, Lord, and Savior.
This comment provided on the 284th day of the 2nd year of the General Resurrection of the Dead.

Thank you Sir, for these teachings. More grace and Blessings.
Interesting..but little confused as well, why there are multiple interpretations to this chapter..Also , I am doing a comparitive study of what the people of India (especially the southern part Tamil Nadu , Korkai) who were having trade with Greece (as mentioned in Tamil Literature ) would have been doing with respect to understand the true God at this time…Archiealogical excavations proved there is no idol worship at this time..quite encouraging..have they part way with Noah's descendants and able to maintain that God is light…. and later on got into hero worship and got converted into idol due to mix with Aryans (from persia region..?)…it will be quite interesting to know what happened to rest of world during Daniel period..I will try to sum up from India perspective..
This is Gabriel speaking, why?because he speaks into chapter 12 as well.
Gabriel is taking the central stage here through the entire chapter as he speaks and explains everything that will happen in the last days. I am so happy to have Gabriel and Michael on our side because there is no one else on our side besides Yeshua.
6:18 – The person speaking in the first verse isn't Daniel but Gabriel as it continues on from where chapter 10 finishes in verse 21.
Daniel 10:21 KJV — But I will shew thee that which is noted in the scripture of truth: and there is none that holdeth with me in these things, but Michael your prince.
The prophecy in Chapter 11 is 'that which is notes in the scripture of truth'. Then Daniel 11:1 Gabriel continues telling Daniel:
Daniel 11:1 KJV — Also I in the first year of Darius the Mede, even I, stood to confirm and to strengthen him.
This is Gabriel who strengthens Darius, just as he strengthens Daniel in the previous chapter 10.
Daniel 10:18 KJV — Then there came again and touched me one like the appearance of a man, and he strengthened me,
God bless.
