Hi Sinthesis, Good Afternoon. But it does say that my friend. There are four groups of people that are being spoken of here...Dan 9:27 And (he?) shall make a strong covenant with many for one week, and for half of the week (he?) shall put an end to sacrifice and offering. And on the wing of abominations shall come (one?) who makes desolate, until the decreed end is poured out on (the desolator?).”
In your sentence here who are (the people), (them), (they) and (the desolate) you speak of.
Who did Jesus say (they) were?
Mat 23:37 `Jerusalem, Jerusalem, that art killing the prophets, and stoning those sent unto thee, how often did I will to gather thy children together, as a hen doth gather her own chickens under the wings, and ye did not will.
Mat 23:38 Lo, left desolate to you is your house;
Mat 24:2 and Jesus said to them, `Do ye not see all these? verily I say to you, There may not be left here a stone upon a stone, that shall not be thrown down.'
Luk 19:41 And when he came nigh, having seen the city, he wept over it,
Luk 19:42 saying--`If thou didst know, even thou, at least in this thy day, the things for thy peace; but now they were hid from thine eyes.
Luk 19:43 `Because days shall come upon thee, and thine enemies shall cast around thee a rampart, and compass thee round, and press thee on every side,
Luk 19:44 and lay thee low, and thy children within thee, and they shall not leave in thee a stone upon a stone, because thou didst not know the time of thy inspection.'
The Jewish historian and eyewitness Josephus said this,
"Cesar gave orders that they should now demolish the whole city and temple, except the three towers Phaselus, Hippicus, and Mariamne, and a part of the western wall; but all the rest was laid so completely even with the ground, by those who dug it up from the foundation, that there was nothing left to make those who came thither believe that it had ever been inhabited."
