Has GOD put an end to the Sin of unbelief in Israel? Your cultish foolishness twisting the scriptures into pretzels you can swallow, no He has not ... YET> Until then the 490 years have not ended. Unless of course your false religion cult of ellen white is calling Daniel a false prophet on the issue.

——>Has GOD put an end to the Sin of unbelief in Israel?

God gave literal Israel 490 concurrent years to make an end of their sins and repent (initially punished by God, taken captive by Babylon). The stoning of Stephen was the last straw. They failed. They are done as God’s chosen people. “your house is left to desolate”. And of course Christ dying on the Cross in the middle of the last week meant that Christ gained victory over sin for the world (meaning Salvation was possible)

(C) “and to make an end of sins,”

- Meaning to the Jews: repent from sin.
- Alludes to the victory of Jesus Christ over sin at the cross.

Dan 9:24

This verse sets the goals of the 70 week prophecy of Daniel.

(A) “Seventy weeks are determined upon thy people and upon thy holy city,”

- This sets the time period at 70 weeks. It is generally accepted here that you must use the day = year prophecy formula (Num 14:34, Ezek 4:6), yielding a time period of 490 years from start to completion.

- The word determined here actually means “cut off”. This 70 weeks are cut off from, or begin at the same time as, the larger 2300 day (year) prophecy of Dan 8:14, which has as it’s focus the cleansing of the sanctuary in heaven, the beginning of Judgment. So both the 70 week (490 year) and the 2300 day (year) prophecy begin at the same date. Note that you can not arbitrarily apply the year for a day principle in one case and not another, you must remain consistent. Dan 8:26 strongly hints that the 2300 day prophecy in verse 14 is not just 2300 days, but many days more than it literally indicates. This would also support using year instead of day.

(B) “to finish the transgression (rebellion),”

- Meaning to the Jews: end your transgression of (rebellion against) God’s Law and return to obedience.
- Alludes to the victory of Jesus Christ over transgression at the cross.

(C) “and to make an end of sins,”

- Meaning to the Jews: repent from sin.
- Alludes to the victory of Jesus Christ over sin at the cross.

(D) “and to make reconciliation for iniquity,”

- Meaning to the Jews: Atonement for sins through sacrificial temple ceremonies (symbolic of Jesus).
- Alludes to the reconciliation for iniquity by Jesus Christ at the cross.

(E) “and to bring in everlasting righteousness,”

- Alludes to the death of Jesus the Messiah at the cross making everlasting righteousness available to all with faith. Without His death at the cross we are all condemned to the second death. By His death on the cross, the requirement of the Law was met and His everlasting righteousness established. Psa 119:142

(F) “and to seal up the vision and prophecy,”

- To fulfill / complete the prophesies of the 70 weeks (the dates of Messiah’s / Jesus’ baptism and crucifixion). Because Daniel predicted these historical events of the 70 weeks with absolute accuracy, we can also trust that the 2300 day (year) prophecy is just as accurate.

(G) “and to anoint the most Holy.”

- As the earthly temple was anointed in Lev 8:10-11, so the heavenly temple was anointed by Jesus as he assumed the role of our High Priest, on his return to heaven. Also, Jesus himself was anointed as the Messiah at His Baptism (Mat 3:16, Mark 1:9, Luke 3:21).

So verse 24 has set the goals of the 70 week prophecy of Daniel. The twofold focus of the prophecy: first on the Jews reconciling themselves with God within the appointed time (490 years), and second, Jesus being baptized and paying the price of sin at the cross for us and becoming our High Priest. Note that there is nothing in verse 24 referring to the millennial kingdom, or the antichrist, or a seven year tribulation and there is nothing to indicate the 490 years are anything but a continuous period of time that ended in 34 A.D.

——>Until then the 490 years have not ended.

Do you not get it? There is no more LITERAL Israel.

Here’s another concept you seem to be unable to grasp...The 490 years is concurrent, including the last 7 years.

- The word determined here actually means “cut off”. This 70 weeks are cut off from, or begin at the same time as, the larger 2300 day (year) prophecy of Dan 8:14, which has as it’s focus the cleansing of the sanctuary in heaven, the beginning of Judgment. So both the 70 week (490 year) and the 2300 day (year) prophecy begin at the same date.
