Few passages in the Old Testament are as enigmatic as Daniel 9:24-27. It makes sense, therefore, that a myriad of interpretations surround these four verses. Expanding on Brevard Childs’s brief work on Daniel, Haydon responds to this question with a canonical approach to Dan 9:24-27: reading a text that is shaped to include future generations of faithful interpreters. The first part lays the groundwork for a canonical approach. Whereas most biblical scholars read Daniel 9 through the lens of historical- and composition-critical tools, Childs and his readers frame the chapter within the larger theological message of the book. The second section is an interpretation of 9:24-27 in its canonical context, doing exegetical and theological work in tandem. Daniel 9:24-27 is, of course, an apocalyptic text leading the reader through the Antiochene crisis and beyond. The theology of the chapter, however, asks us to look back to the Law and the Prophets: Leviticus 25-26 and Jeremiah 25-29 are integral to Daniel 9. Traditions begun in the preceding corpora—rest, sin-debt, and kingdom (Lev 26:34-35; Jer 25:10-12, 29:10-14)—find their culmination in Dan 9:24-27. Haydon’s study brings these texts to bear on the “seventy sevens” in Daniel 9:24. After a careful study of the phrase’s background, we discover that the construction refers to more than a number or even a single event. This time-image points to a larger pattern of rulership wherein leaders rise and fall (vv. 25-26), while the Ancient of Days remains the true King. Ambiguity also plays a part: Daniel 9:24-27 lacks historical detail for a reason—namely, to create an interpretive space that a faith community can occupy. The final form of Dan 9:24-27 is a theological construct allowing multiple generations to live in expectation of God’s rule. A biblical theology of Daniel 9:24-27, moving into the New Testament and contemporary Christian reception, concludes Haydon’s study.

The interpretation of the Seventy Weeks passage of Daniel 9 has been the center of many discussions between Jews and Christians as to its meaning. These controversies have generally revolved around three areas of dispute: • The division of the weeks • The starting date of the Seventy Weeks • The number of “anointed” individuals mentioned in the text and/or his/their identification. In agreement with the Masoretic accents and textual indicators (e.g. verse 26), Jewish commentators divide the time period into three periods: seven weeks, sixty-two weeks, and one week. The last week culminates with the destruction of the Temple, but with an addendum giving hope for the future. Christian renderings of Daniel generally follow the present-day King James Version’s division into two periods of weeks (sixty-nine weeks consisting of seven weeks plus sixty-two weeks and one week). This is also the position maintained by most Christian commentators in explaining this passage. What is the overall purpose of the Seventy Weeks passage? Is this passage messianic? Who are the two anointed individuals mentioned in this passage? How does its description of things to come and eventual fulfillment centuries later give proof of the eventual fulfillment of all God’s promises to Israel? What message does it hold for Jewish history past and future? Does it refer to Christian eschatological beliefs? Does this passage refer in any way to Jesus? To investigate these questions is the purpose of this volume.

Bible prohecy is God showing us history (His-story) in advance. A Divine time measure is a prophecy which is confined to a specific period of time. During this period, the events prophesied must come to pass exactly as foretold. This is the story of the only Messianic Divine time measure recorded in Holy Writ Daniel s Seventy Weeks. The truth of its interpretation begins with a journey back to the Protestant Reformation. It was during this period of Church history that this great prophecy s commonly understood fulfillment was hermeneutically attacked and distorted. The confusing results of this theological assault are with us to this day and manifest itself in the teaching that a seven-year tribulation period is yet to come. This doctrine was birthed in Counter-Reformation Europe during the 16th century. What was this doctrinal assault s ultimate purpose? Who first taught it? Why was this new interpretation of Daniel chapter nine rejected by scholastic Protestant clergy for centuries? Who were its authors trying to protect? What is the true alternative which was believed by all of Christendom for over a millennium? How has this affected our perceptions and understandings of Christ s Kingdom? This book reveals the truth about Daniel s 70th week. Its contents shatter the sand-built foundations of today s popular 21st century Bible prophecy teaching, properly titled Futurism but commonly understood to be Dispensationalism!

Does God Exist? What is the evidence? Breaking Daniel's Seal presents the newly-discovered solution to one of the most important prophecies in the Bible--the Seventy Weeks of Daniel. Daniel's prophecy foretells the appearances of a promised Messiah on specific dates. Unknown until now, this prophecy has been fulfilled multiple times, each precisely to the day. The unmistakable precision leaves very little doubt of the promised Messiah's identity, the Bible's reliability, and God's existence. The Seventy Weeks of Daniel serves as the framework for other Old Testament prophecy. Prophecies from Ezekiel and Jeremiah are set into the framework of the 70 Weeks and are shown to be precisely fulfilled. Breaking Daniel's Seal verifies each fulfillment using the conventional historical record. This book uses evidence and reason, not theology, to verify the biblical text. This book is for every thinking person who has ever wondered if God's existence could be demonstrated objectively.
