Digital Verbum Edition
Excerpt: "Someone has said, “A text without the context is a pre-text.” No Scripture better illustrates that fact than does DANIEL 9:24-27. The words in this passage are spoken so clearly and simply—free from figurative language—it is amazing that in recent years Christians should be so confused by the diverse and contradictory theories foisted upon them in the name of Bible exegesis."
