Jerusalem And Daniel's Seventy Weeks (8 of 17)
JERUSALEM CENTER OF WORLD DESTINY

Daniel 9:24-27
Today we are in part eight of our study on Jerusalem the center of world destiny. Today's lesson is "Jerusalem and Daniel's 70 Weeks". Now I want us to turn to Daniel chapter 9.

Well Daniel the prophet had been in Babylon for many years. He was carried there as a youth into Babylonian captivity in 500 plus BC. When Jerusalem fell to the Babylonians Daniel was one of the first captives who was carried there. So get in mind the time line that Daniel is going to be talking abou ...
