Messiah's Arrival: The Keys

Описание: Did you know Daniel revealed the timing of Messiah's coming?

Discover how Daniel 9, the 70 "weeks" prophecy, and the decree to rebuild Jerusalem reveal the timing of Messiah's coming in this detailed Bible study of Daniel 9:24–27. Often considered one of the most important Messianic prophecies in Scripture, this passage lays out a prophetic timeline that points to the arrival of Messiah and God’s redemptive plan for Israel.

This first video in the series highlights three crucial interpretive keys. It clarifies why the Hebrew term translated as "weeks" refers to 70 units of seven years, totaling 490 years. It also presents biblical evidence demonstrating that a prophetic year consists of 360 days, drawing from Genesis, Daniel, and Revelation. Finally, it identifies the correct starting point for the prophecy: the decree issued in 444 BC by Artaxerxes to restore and rebuild Jerusalem.

Make sure to check out part two to apply these three keys in calculating the timing of Messiah’s arrival.
