What does the Antichrist do in Daniel 9:27?
In Daniel 9:27, the prince who shall come—the Antichrist—confirms or makes a covenant with many, Israel, for one week. That one week is seven years in Bible language. This signing marks his appearance and the start of the seven-year treaty.
Les explains that Daniel 9:27 is where Daniel writes of the Antichrist, the prince that shall come mentioned in verse 26. He shall confirm, make, or sign a covenant with many, Israel, for one week, which is seven years in Bible language. Les connects this to Revelation, where the beast is worshiped, has economic and military clout, and is given a mouth speaking great things and blasphemies. This man and empire make their appearance at the signing of that seven-year treaty.
And he shall confirm the covenant with many for one week: and in the midst of the week he shall cause the sacrifice and the oblation to cease, and for the overspreading of abominations he shall make it desolate, even until the consummation, and that determined shall be poured upon the desolate.
