The problem with this author’s entire analysis (other than the fact that its believability rests on many “ifs”) is based on one simple fact; he has failed to conclusively demonstrate anywhere in the Bible where a distinct chronology involving time employs a gap of several thousands of years to fulfill.
While it is creative, it is fundamentally unbiblical. Without the need for a “gap” there is no reason to believe that the “He” reference in Daniel 9:27 is not referring to Messiah.
Besides, how can an alleged “literalist” take the phrase “the command To restore and build Jerusalem” as Jeremiah’s prophecy rather than an actual command?
Yet another example of the futurists’ “literal when convenient” hermeneutics.
