And I fully understand that..I guess I was just having some issue with why 1290 years and 1335 years mentioned in Daniel
9:12-12 has significance to us today.....
But yes I do think that GOD does want this to be an unknown due to the Rapture

Those are days and not years. The Tribulation is split up into "two" -- 1,260-day halves (1,260 days is 42 months is 3-1/2 years)... with the last half -- having some significance in terms of 1,290 days and then (with some more days added), 1,335 days.
The significance of the last half of the Tribulation with the "day count" of 1,260 days, then 1,290 days and then 1,335 days -- does mean something, but it's not clear what it means (as to what "events" are occuring at those "day-markers"...
I would say that the 1,260-day-mark (in the last half of the Tribulation) has to do with the Messiah of Israel (Jesus) returning to the earth. Then (and guesses on my part) the 1,290-day-mark is the completion of the Messiah's war upon all those who oppose Him. And then the 1,335-day-mark is the Sheep and Goat Judgment of the nations....
Whoever makes it through all that (who was still living here on earth) -- "goes into the Kingdom" (the Millennial reign of Christ on earth).
And also, it's worth to note that parts of those verses in those chapters that you mention, have already been fulfilled in the past. There's a particular spot that Bible prophecy teachers "pick it up" and mark Daniel's prophecies as "still yet future" -- as opposed to those which have already happened (in that section that you mention).
