This is simply a very quick review of the highlights of those things discussed in the last several posts. This is needed only as we now return to the Olivet Discourse and those things that will help our understanding of the Olivet Discourse are listed below.
- The Prophecy is Messianic and centered in Judea and deals with the Jews covenant relationship
- The prophecy ONLY introduces ONE character - Jesus Christ - Messiah the Prince
- The time constraints of God’s faithful word last 490 years
- Nothing in the context allows for a Gap - as no where else in Scripture
- Jesus fulfills the six prophetic announcements
- 1. Finish transgression
- 2. Put an end to sin
- 3. Atone for iniquity
- 4. Bring in everlasting righteousness
- 5. Seal up vision and prophecy (fulfill)
- 6. Anoint the Most Holy
- The destruction of Jerusalem is decreed during the 490 years but carried out a generation later
- The passage is Messianic and not about the Antichrist!
The above will help us address in the following post as to what should be seen as this “abomination of desolation” discussed in the Olivet Discourse.
