Daniel 9:
In the time of King Darius,
who now ruled Medes and Persia (which included Babylon after the fall of
Babylon), Daniel prayed to God about the scriptures and the word that was given
to Jeremiah. It said that the destruction of Jerusalem and the slavery of
Judah will be 70 years. Daniel prayed that God should forgive the
wickedness of his people and their fathers for disobeying the words and warnings of
the prophets, as well as keep God's covenant with all of Israel about their shame of
slavery. Daniel insists that he does not make any request to God because
they are righteous, but because God is merciful. He also asked God to
remember God's city of Jerusalem that bears God's name and God's sanctuary in
it. Daniel is basically requesting an end to Israeli slavery in Babylon
(now under Medes and Persia) so that they could return back home to Canaan (Israel and
Judah) in order to rebuild their home. As he prayed, Gabriel, the man who
spoke to him in the past vision, came to give him more understanding and an
immediate answer from God. Gabriel stated that it was actually 77 years
for the holy city to finish transgression, atone for Israel's wickedness, seal
up the vision and prophecy, and anoint the most holy place. Gabriel also
makes it clear that it will take seven sevens (maybe 77 years) and sixty-two
sevens (maybe 627 years) between the degree to rebuild Jerusalem and the time
the anointed one comes (Jesus). Jesus would be cut of after sixty-two
sevens and the people of the ruler (Satan) will come to destroy the city and
sanctuary, bring endless wars, put an end to God's sacrifices, as well as set up
an abomination on the church to cause desolation (image of White Jesus) until
the end will come for him. |

Daniel 10:
In the reign of Cyprus, king
of Persia, Daniel saw the vision of a man by the Tigris river. The man
said he was sent to Daniel because Daniel was highly esteemed. He
explained to Daniel that God sent a response to his prayer as soon as he humbled
himself before God and sought knowledge, but the prince of Persia (Satan as
ruler of the earth takes on the title of the current world power) delayed him
for 21 days until Michael, one of the chief princes, came to assist him so he
could come. He asked Daniel if Daniel knew why he came. He then said
he had to return to fight the prince of Persia and after that the prince of
Greece would come (a new attack on the children of God from Satan with a new
world power). Gabriel was going to reveal all in the book of truth to
Daniel because no one stood with him except Michael (prince of the saints), so
Daniel stood up to support him.
Daniel 11:
Gabriel
tells Daniel that Persia will have 4 more kings and the fourth one will use its
wealth to stir up trouble against Greece and be defeated. Greece will have
a great leader, but after him, his kingdom will not go to his descendants but to
others and become 4 weaker kingdoms (this eventually happened in world history).
He goes on to talk about all the commotion and disorder in leadership the
Europeans rulers of the earth will bring to the world between the king of the
North and South, as well as their descendants. He also talks about the
slavery, colonization, and destruction of Africa (Libya, Egypt, Nubian (Sudan))
and the taking of their gold, silver, and resources, but God will destroy them at
the end with no one to help him. The evil ones know their end would come,
but they want to do as they please as the supreme gods.
