Daniels 70th Week, Well Clarified
First, read the text, read the text, READ THE TEXT!!!
Daniel 9
Next some foundation
Hekal, the Hebrew word for Temple, as in The Temple of YHVH
הֵיכָל Hekal
הֵיכָל hêykâl, hay-kawl'; probably from H3201 (in the sense of capacity); a large public building, such as a palace or temple:palace, temple
מִּקְדָּשׁ mikdash
מִקְדָּשׁ miqdâsh, mik-dawsh'; or מִקְּדָשׁ miqqᵉdâsh; (Exodus 15:17), from H6942; a consecrated thing or place, especially, a palace, sanctuary (whether of Jehovah or of idols) or asylum:chapel, hallowed part, holy place, sanctuary.
קֹדֶשׁ kodesh
קֹדֶשׁ qôdesh, ko'-desh; from H6942; a sacred place or thing; rarely abstract, sanctity:consecrated (thing), dedicated (thing), hallowed (thing), holiness, (× most) holy (× day, portion, thing), saint, sanctuary
Examples:
Daniel 9:17 Now, our God, hear the prayers and petitions of your servant. For your sake, Lord, look with favor on your desolate sanctuary.
וְעַתָּה שְׁמַע אֱלֹהֵינוּ אֶל־תְּפִלַּת עַבְדְּךָ וְאֶל־תַּחֲנוּנָיו וְהָאֵר פָּנֶיךָ עַל־מִקְדָּשְׁךָ הַשָּׁמֵם לְמַעַן אֲדֹנָי
מִקְדָּשְׁ mikdash sanctuary
Daniel 9:20 And whiles I was speaking, and praying, and confessing my sin and the sin of my people Israel, and presenting my supplication before the LORD my God for the holy mountain of my God; 21 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.
22 And he informed me, and talked with me, and said, O Daniel, I am now come forth to give thee skill and understanding.
23 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.
24 Seventy weeks are determined upon thy people and upon thy holy city, to finish the transgression, and to make an end of sins, and to make reconciliation for iniquity, and to bring in everlasting righteousness, and to seal up the vision and prophecy, and to anoint the most Holy.
25 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, and threescore and two weeks: the street shall be built again, and the wall, even in troublous times.
26 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.
27 And he shall confirm the covenant with many for one week: and in the midst of the week he shall cause the sacrifice and the oblation to cease, and for the overspreading of abominations he shall make it desolate, even until the consummation, and that determined shall be poured upon the desolate.
Read the text and know...
Here's a fact. A third Temple does not have to be built for the prince/ruler/anti-Christ.
John 8:17 In your own Torah it is written that the testimony of two witnesses is true. 18 I am one who testifies for myself; my other witness is the Father, who sent me.
Matthew 24:1 And Yeshua went out, and departed from the temple: and his disciples came to him for to shew him the buildings of the temple.
2 And Yeshua said unto them, See ye not all these things? verily I say unto you, There shall not be left here one stone upon another, that shall not be thrown down.
Yeshua foretells the destruction of the Temple but doesnt mention a third temple but identifies the holy place.
Matthew 24:15 So when you see standing in the holy place 'the abomination of desolation,' described by the prophet Daniel (let the reader understand),
לָכֵן כַּאֲשֶׁר תִּרְאוּ אֶת־שִׁקּוּץ מְשׁׂמֵם אֲשֶׁר אָמַר דָּנִיֵּאל הַנָּבִיא עוֹמֵד בְּמָקוֹם קָדוֹשׁ הַקּׂרֵא יָבִין
The holy place, not holy Temple
מָקוֹם place, locality, residence
Ben Yehudas Hebrew English Dictionary
Example of holy Temple
Habakkuk 2:20 But YHVH is in his holy temple: let all the earth keep silence before him.
וַיהוָה בְּהֵיכַל קָדְשׁוֹ הַס מִפָּנָיו כָּל־הָאָרֶץ
Hekel Kodesh
Mikdash מִּקְדָּשׁ and Hecal הֵיכָל are words that are translated to Temple.
Neither appear in Daniel 9:27 or Matthew 24:15
And here is the main problem with Daniel 9, verse 26 is a mistranslation.
9:26 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.
וְאַחֲרֵי הַשָּׁבֻעִים שִׁשִּׁים וּשְׁנַיִם יִכָּרֵת מָשִׁיחַ וְאֵין לוֹ וְהָעִיר וְהַקֹּדֶשׁ יַשְׁחִית עַם נָגִיד הַבָּא וְקִצּוֹ בַשֶּׁטֶף וְעַד קֵץ מִלְחָמָה נֶחֱרֶצֶת שֹׁמֵמוֹת
It should read: and the people of the prince that shall come shall destroy the city and the holy.
city עִיר
and the holy וְהַקֹּדֶשׁ
The word translated as sanctuary here is kodesh, holy.
And since the prince (anti-Christ) is a Muslim the temple he uses is already there.
And the two witnesses, Gabriel and Yeshua.
And dont get me started on the KJV, heres a couple more problems.
Isaiah 60:1 Arise, shine; for thy light is come, and the glory of the LORD is risen upon thee.
2 For, behold, the darkness shall cover the earth, and gross darkness the people: but the LORD shall arise upon thee, and his glory shall be seen upon thee.
One day I thought, what the hey is gross darkness? I looked it up and it should read, thick clouds or foggy mist and what kind of weather do you find in London? Self preservation.
Also: Joel 2:19 Yea, the LORD will answer and say unto his people, Behold, I will send you corn, and wine, and oil, and ye shall be satisfied therewith: and I will no more make you a reproach among the heathen: 2:20 But I will remove far off from you the northern army, and will drive him into a land barren and desolate, with his face toward the east sea, and his hinder part toward the utmost sea, and his stink shall come up, and his ill savour shall come up, because he hath done great things.
Now whats the utmost sea? It should read western sea, oops, eastern sea and a western sea? America has done great things...
And there is no seven year tribulation, another mistake from the Late Great Left Behind model.
As Ive stated before Gabriel is only revealing information of two time periods, the coming of The Messiah and the coming of the prince/ruler/anti-Christ. Nehemiah started the countdown to Messiah and the Israeli West Bank barrier shows were in the time of the prince/A-C.
Daniel 9:25 ...the street shall be built again, and the wall, even in troublous times.
Nehemiah 2:17 Then said I unto them, Ye see the distress that we are in, how Jerusalem lieth waste, and the gates thereof are burned with fire: come, and let us build up the wall of Jerusalem, that we be no more a reproach.
Israeli West Bank barrier
The Israeli West Bank barrier is a separation barrier (see "Names of the barrier") being constructed by the State of Israel along and within the West Bank. Upon completion, the barrier's total length will be approximately 760 kilometres (470 mi)[citation needed]. 90% of the barrier is a fence with vehicle-barrier trenches surrounded by an on-average 60 metres (200 ft) wide exclusion area, and 10% of the barrier is an 8 metres (26 ft)-tall concrete wall.[1] The barrier is built mainly in the West Bank and partly along the 1949 Armistice line, or "Green Line" between Israel and Palestinian West Bank. According to the Israeli human rights organization B'Tselem, 8.5% of the West Bank area is on the Israeli side of the barrier, and 3.4% is on the other side but "partly or completely surrounded".

Now for some fun, Daniels so called Seventh Week.
And Gabriel said, ...there will be seven sevens, and sixty-two sevens.
Which add up to 69 sevens, where is the other week? Ill save that for another article.
I prefer this translation
NASB
Daniel 9:27 "And he will make a firm covenant with the many for one week, but in the middle of the week he will put a stop to sacrifice and grain offering; and on the wing of abominations will come one who makes desolate, even until a complete destruction, one that is decreed, is poured out on the one who makes desolate."
וְהִגְבִּיר בְּרִית לָרַבִּים שָׁבוּעַ אֶחָד וַחֲצִי הַשָּׁבוּעַ יַשְׁבִּית זֶבַח וּמִנְחָה וְעַל כְּנַף שִׁקּוּצִים מְשֹׁמֵם וְעַד־כָּלָה וְנֶחֱרָצָה תִּתַּךְ עַל־שֹׁמֵם
Yeshua put an end to the sacrifice It is finished! John 19:30
It astounds me why anyone would assign what Yeshua accomplished on the cross to a mythical middle of a seven year tribulation by the anti-Christ? Time is up for that nonsense.
Passover 3790 is the middle of a shmita cycle (seven) 30 C.E.
Read all about it...
Why Didnt the Red Ribbon on the Head of the Scapegoat Turn White in 30 C.E.?
Clip:
The Talmud relates, however, that 40 years before the destruction of the Second Temple the scarlet colored strip of wool did not turn white. The text of the Talmud which missionaries quote states,
The Rabbis taught that forty years prior to the destruction of the Temple the lot did not come up in the [high priests] right hand nor did the tongue of scarlet wool become white
(Talmud, Tractate Yoma 39b)
Citing the above statement, missionaries contend that the year the scarlet ribbon ceased to turn white coincides with the time that Jesus was crucified. After all, they argue, 40 years prior to the destruction of the Second Temple corresponds to the year 30 C.E,3 which is approximately the time of Jesus crucifixion. They conclude, therefore, that the cessation of the whitening of the scarlet ribbon clearly indicates that God was no longer accepting animal sacrifices, and the Jewish people, therefore, needed to turn to Jesus as their only avenue for atonement. Ultimately, this argument asserts that the reason why the scarlet strip of wool did not turn white in the year 30 C.E. was due to the fact that the sins of the Jews were not forgiven because they did not accept Jesus as their messiah.

And he will make a firm covenant, or confirm the covenant, The Covenant/Brit not a peace treaty.
Yeshua, the messenger of the covenant. Brit בְּרִית
Malachi 3:1 Behold, I will send my messenger, and he shall prepare the way before me: and the LORD, whom ye seek, shall suddenly come to his temple, even the messenger of the covenant, whom ye delight in: behold, he shall come, saith the LORD of hosts.
Yeshua, confirmed the covenant. Brit בְּרִית
Daniel 9:27 He will confirm a covenant with many for one seven. In the middle of the seven he will put an end to sacrifice and offering
3790, 30 C.E. the middle of a week
Other witnesses to the three and a half year tribulation.
Revelation 11:2 But leave out the court which is outside the temple, and do not measure it, for it has been given to the Gentiles. And they will tread the holy city underfoot for forty-two months.
42 months = 3 and a half years
3 And I will give power to my two witnesses, and they will prophesy one thousand two hundred and sixty days, clothed in sackcloth.
42 (months) x 30 (days) = 1260= three and a half (lunar) years
Revelation 12:14 But the woman was given two wings of a great eagle, that she might fly into the wilderness to her place, where she is nourished for a time and times and half a time, from the presence of the serpent.
Revelation 13:5 And he was given a mouth speaking great things and blasphemies, and he was given authority to continue for forty-two months.
And...
Daniel 7:24 And the ten horns out of this kingdom are ten kings that shall arise: and another shall rise after them; and he shall be diverse from the first, and he shall subdue three kings.
Subdue
שְׁפַל shᵉphal, shef-al'; (Aramaic) corresponding to H8213:abase, humble, put down subdue.
Daniel 7:25 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.
So the gentiles, the witnesses, the woman and the prince/ruler/anti-Christ each are assigned three and a half years, not seven.
And...
Three were uprooted, Muammar Gaddafi, Hosni Mubarak and Saddam Hussein and uprooted is the perfect word as these three had nearly 100 years of combined rule, no small feat indeed.

Fact: 666 years after the crucifixion/resurrection (30 C.E.) Abd al-Malik standardized Islamic currency.
30 (C.E.) + 666 = 696 C.E.
Gold coin of Abd al-Malik
The gold dinar struck in the year 77 of the Islamic calendar, (AD 696-7) is significant for a number of reasons: it is the first issue of Islamic coinage without pictorial representation and represent... Read more at

He ordered that the coins be stamped with the sentence: "Allah is Unique, Allah is Eternal". He ordered the removal of human figures and animals from the coins and that they be replaced with letters. This command was then carried on throughout all the history of Islam.
Umar Ibn al-Khattab established the known standard relationship between them based on their weights: "7 dinars must be equivalent to 10 dirhams."
"Allah is Unique, Allah is Eternal"
Revelation 13:1 And he stood upon the sand of the sea. And I saw a beast coming up out of the sea, having ten horns, and seven heads, and on his horns ten diadems, and upon his heads names of blasphemy.
The dinar and dirham the mark/mint of the beast
Daniel 12:11 And from the time that the daily sacrifice shall be taken away, and the abomination that maketh desolate set up, there shall be a thousand two hundred and ninety years.
30 (C.E.) + 1290 = 1320 C.E.
The Content of Abu Madein Al-Ghouths Legacy
It is noteworthy to register the contents of a document by the great learned scholar, Abu Madein Shueib Ben Al-Mujahed Abu Abdallah Mohd Ben Al-Sheikh Al-Imam, the Blessing of the Muslims, and the rest of the ancestors, Abu Madein Shueib Al-Maghraby Al-Ottomany Al-Maleky, who was buried in Telmesan. This document, written on 29 Ramadan 720 H (2 November 1320 CE) during the life of the grandson, indicated that he had dedicated two places, which he had been running by himself.
The first place was the village of Ein Karem and consisted of plains and rough terrain, houses for its people, orchards of pomegranate, olives, figs and oak trees, water wells, and old Roman vineyards. The document showed the borders of the village from the four directions: Al-Malha Al-Kubra south, Ein Qaroun, Qalounia, Harash, Sataf and Zawyet Al-Bukhtyari north, Ein Al-Sheqaq west, and Al-Malha Al-Kubra and Beit Marmeil east.
The second place is located in Jerusalem itself known as Qantara Asabat Um Al-Banat at Bab Al-Selsela, including a large building (Ewan), a large house, a yard, a facility and an underground store and a cellar. Although the document had showed the limits in great detail of the one in Ein Karem, it did not do the same for this one; however, it did show its four limits, especially the eastern side which ends at Al-Buraq. The document added that this legacy will remain through the ages and it has been confirmed throughout its history. The document added that both Ein Karem and the Ewan have been dedicated to the Moors in Jerusalem or those visiting the city regardless of their color, trade, sex, age or status, and nobody could fight the Moors over this Waqf, which they could make use of it in different ways, such as rental, agriculture or sharing, and the priority will be for the newcomers then the indebted and so on.
The document stated that the revenue of these estates should be given to the Moors in Mecca and Medina, but if there is nobody to take it, the revenues should be sent to the two Holy Shrines. Concerning the estate attendant, he should be elected by the Moors in the cities themselves after the death of Abu Al-Ghouth, and this attendant has to be an honest and pious Muslim who takes care of the estates and invests them properly.
The Temple mount Waqf is the abomination of desolation spoken of by the prophet Daniel.
Daniel 11:37 He shall give no heed to the gods of his fathers, [Chemosh, Molech] or to the one beloved by women; [Ashtoreth] he shall not give heed to any other god, for he shall magnify himself above all.
38 He shall honor the god of fortresses instead of these; [Allah] a god whom his fathers did not know he shall honor with gold and silver, with precious stones and costly gifts.
39 He shall deal with the strongest fortresses by the help of a foreign god; [Allah] those who acknowledge him he shall magnify with honor. He shall make them rulers over many and shall divide the land for a price.
2 Kings 23:13 The king also desecrated the high places that were east of Jerusalem on the south of the Hill of Corruption--the ones Solomon king of Israel had built for Ashtoreth the vile goddess of the Sidonians, for Chemosh the vile god of Moab, and for Molech the detestable god of the people of Ammon.

Looks interesting. Bump for later.
Such a HUGE data dump in your post is going to overwhelm anyone who doesn't have access to your notes. That includes practically everyone here I would imagine, but I commend you for all your hard work in attempting to clarify this prophecy.
Eschatology is a jigsaw puzzle with literally an infinite number of pieces.
We don't have enough pieces fully in place to really understand all the players, the time frames, or even which prophesies have been fulfilled and which have not. And if you believe prophecy, some mysteries will necessarily remain so until the proper timing. But I do think we're in a time where more and more pieces are indeed being revealed.
Dan. 12:4 "But you, Daniel, shut up these words and seal the book until the time of the end. Many will roam to and fro, and knowledge will increase.
Your statement/conclusion, quoted at the start, I believe to be accurate. I've come to the same conclusion. I believe a number of other prophesies have likewise been fulfilled.
Changing of times [Council of Nicaea]
Abomination of the desolation [Dome of the Rock?]
False prophet [Mohamed]
Mark of the beast [SSN]
Stopping sacrifices [Church around 425]
These are just some of the prophesies, many are waiting for, which I believe have already been fulfilled. That's not to say future shadows of these prophecy won't happen. Prophecy often involves a prelude which occurs before the main event. It's precisely what the Passover sacrificial lamb represented prior to the actual Crucifixion for those who don't already know that. It's a sign of Divine orchestration.
I only offer a way some of pieces might fit.
One for your consideration has to do with a part of the Daniel seventy week prophecy.
25 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, and threescore and two weeks: the street shall be built again, and the wall, even in troublous times.
26 And after threescore and two weeks shall Messiah be cut off, but not for himself: and the people of the prince "that shall come"[quotes mine] [IMO, this may well refer to the Church during/after Constantine] shall destroy the city and the sanctuary; and the end thereof shall be with a flood, and unto the end of the war [Jews vs Gentiles] desolations are determined.[Perspective is Daniel's and of what will become of his people.]
27 And he [?] shall confirm the covenant with many for one week [?]: and in the midst of the week he shall cause the sacrifice and the oblation to cease [Council of Nicaea in 325 changed the times, and around 425, Jewish sacrifices ended under penalty of death] and for the overspreading of abominations he shall make it desolate, even until the consummation [trib], and that determined shall be poured upon the desolate.
Still researching the [?]s and timelines. The "Obamanation" and "Last Trump" may even now be with us.
Another for your consideration:
IMO, 666 = 6+6+6 = 18 = 1+8 = 9. The number nine is THE "magic" number, the number of digits in your government [the beast] assigned SSN (i.e, the number of A man). Without it, what can you do? That's not to say 666 can't/doesn't represent something else, like perhaps Islam.

The witness of Gabriel
Daniel 9:27 "And he will make a firm covenant with the many for one week, but in the middle of the week he will put a stop to sacrifice and grain offering; and on the wing of abominations will come one who makes desolate, even until a complete destruction, one that is decreed, is poured out on the one who makes desolate." NASB

כְּנַף kânâph, kaw-nawf'; from H3670; an edge or extremity; specifically (of a bird or army) a wing, (of a garment or bedclothing) a flap, (of the earth) a quarter, (of a building) a pinnacle: bird, border, corner, end, feather(-ed), × flying, (one an-) other, overspreading, × quarters, skirt, wing
