In Daniel 9. 24. the Angel tells Daniel that 70 Weeks are determined upon his People and the Holy City, to finish transgression, to make an end of sin, to make reconciliation for the people, and to bring in everlasting righteousness. Then v. 25. he divides them, that from the going forth of the Commandment to Build the City should be seven Weeks, that is, before it should be Built and Finished, so long in Building, 49 years, and 62 Weeks it should be Built, but it should be trouble some times, and so it was with the Jews, what by the Grecian Monarchy, and after the Roman, for when the Messiah Christ came, they were tributary to the Romans; and in the midst of the last Week the Messiah should be cut off, but not for himself, by whose Death the Everlasting Covenant was Sealed, Ratified and Confirmed, and all the Typical Sacrifices and Oblations to cease, as now no longer useful to the true Church of God, and great desolation was to ensue upon that people for their unbelief, which accordingly fell out, and was brought upon them by Titus Son of Vespasian some years after the death of Christ, as Christ also fore-admonished them, ⟨p. 219⟩Mat. 24. 15. Luke 21. 20. Add now these 69 Weeks, of years, and ½ Week (for he was to suffer in the midst of a Week) which amounts to 486 ½ unto the 115 years aforementioned, and it makes up 601 ½. 69 Weeks ½ 486 ½ before 115. In all 601 ½.
