How many years of Daniel's 490-year prophecy were fulfilled when Christ died?
Only exactly 483 years of Daniel's 490-year prophecy were fulfilled by the time Christ was crucified. That left 7 years unfulfilled, identified as Daniel's 70th week, the final 7-year period still belonging to Israel's prophetic timeline and awaiting future fulfillment.
Les explains that Daniel's 490-year prophecy goes back to Daniel chapter 9. Only 483 years were fulfilled by the time Christ was crucified, leaving 7 years unfulfilled. Since the church age has been sandwiched between the 483 years and the final 7 years, once the Body of Christ is finished and the church is gone, God will pick up where He left off with Israel. This final 7-year period is Daniel's 70th week, and Revelation unfolds God's dealing with the human race, particularly Israel, beginning with the Antichrist signing a 7-year treaty with Israel.
