Seventy sevens

Quix - what does that mean?

It means 490 years. But somehow Futurists have to cram an extra 2,000-plus years in there.

It means 490 years.

Ten jubilees. I recall seeing citations from intertestamental Jewish sources that took it that way.

In other words, there isn’t any clear statement in Scripture that the temple must be rebuilt.

Scripture gave an explanation for that . . .

Evidently you don’t choose to believe it.

I knew it meant 490 yrs - what I REALLY meant is the significance to the rest of the scripture. Sorry about that - I didn’t make myself clear.
