About the seventy weeks

Daniel 9 24 Seventy weeks are determined upon thy people and upon thy holy city, to finish the transgression, and to make an end of sins, and to make reconciliation for iniquity, and to bring in everlasting righteousness, and to seal up the vision and prophecy, and to anoint the most Holy. 25 Know therefore and understand, that from the going forth of the commandment to restore and to build Jerusalem unto the Messiah the Prince shall be seven weeks, and threescore and two weeks: the street shall be built again, and the wall, even in troublous times. 26 And after threescore and two weeks shall Messiah be cut off, but not for himself: and the people of the prince that shall come shall destroy the city and the sanctuary; and the end thereof shall be with a flood, and unto the end of the war desolations are determined. 27 And he shall confirm the covenant with many for one week: and in the midst of the week he shall cause the sacrifice and the oblation to cease, and for the overspreading of abominations he shall make it desolate, even until the consummation, and that determined shall be poured upon the desolate. -kjv Jeremiah 30 7 Alas! for that day is great, so that none is like it: it is even the time of Jacob's trouble, but he shall be saved out of it. -kjv Daniel 9:24-27 deals with the seventy week decree for the people of Israel. Each week represents seven years, so that's a period of 490 years. According to this passage, the first sixty-nine weeks deals from the issuing of the decree, which I believe, took place from 444 B.C., during the time of Nehemiah to restore and rebuild Jerusalem. From that decree until the time of the Messiah, there will be 483 years, 69 x 7 years. Then the Messiah came, I believe that was fulfilled on palm Sunday. But there appears to be a gap and the seventieh week is till awaited and is still yet future. This seven years is the great tribulation which Jeremiah calls "Jacob's trouble".

Is there a link between the Jews rebelling against God and the Holocaust?

Question: Is there a link between the Jews rebelling against God and the Holocaust? Some related scriptures: Acts 4 27 For of a truth against thy holy child Jesus, whom thou hast anointed, both Herod, and Pontius Pilate, with the Gentiles, and the people of Israel, were gathered together, 28 For to do whatsoever thy hand and thy counsel determined before to be done.  -kjv Luke 19 41 And when he was come near, he beheld the city, and wept over it, 42 Saying, If thou hadst known, even thou, at least in this thy day, the things which belong unto thy peace! but now they are hid from thine eyes. 43 For the days shall come upon thee, that thine enemies shall cast a trench about thee, and compass thee round, and keep thee in on every side, 44 And shall lay thee even with the ground, and thy children within thee; and they shall not leave in thee one stone upon another; because thou knewest not the time of thy visitation.  -kjv Answer from Dr Michael Rydelnik on moody radio on openline on Dec 10, 2016: I had a professor many years ago who said that the holocaust happened because the Jews crucified Jesus. He was wrong on two counts. One, the bible teaches that there is universal guilt, Jews and Gentiles who participated in the death of Jesus. You can see that clearly in Acts 4:27-28. And then it says in Luke 19:41, Jesus approached and saw the city of Jerusalem and wept over it and saying if you knew this day what would bring peace but now  it's hidden from your eyes and then it talks about the destruction of Jerusalem and then it says they will crush you. The destruction of Jerusalem happened in AD 70. They will crush you and the children within you to the ground, there will not be one stone or another in you because you did not recognize the time of your visitation. Because the Jewish leadership led the nation to reject the Messiah, it is saying not all Jews reject him but most Jews do, the judgement for that is the destruction of Jerusalem in AD 70. Now, in one minute, I will try to explain the covenant that you see near the end of Deuteronomy, Deuteronomy 28 through 30.  It talks about if you disobey the law, the consequence will be all sorts of bad effects in the land and if you continue to disobey the law of Moses, God told the Jewish people through Moses, then I am going to scatter you into exile. The consequence for disobeying the law is to be exiled. The problem with it is when you are exiled, God says to Israel, you are no longer under my protective custody and then the Gentiles will do with you what they want to do. So, I would see the Holocaust as one of many terrible consequences of being out of God's protective custody in the land of Israel, that's where the protective custody was. So who's at fault here? Was it the Jewish people? No they are outside the land, that's how they got there. But the cause of the Holocaust are the nations who hate Israel and the God of Israel and they are to blame for that.
