"abomination that causes desolation"

the abomination was the continuance of the daily sacrifice that God ended with Jesus and it took forty years before God destroyed the whole show temple and all.

I wouldn't be inclined to accept the interpretation that the Temple sacrificial system would be the abomination of desolation.

1. Paul declared the law to be good and holy.

2. Paul and the early church regularly engaged in Temple ritual after the resurrection.

3. Those sacrifices were a picture of the one sacrifice, so they are recommended by Hebrews to be reflected upon in a holy manner.
