What will the Antichrist do in Daniel 9:27?
Daniel 9:27 states that the Antichrist, called the prince that shall come, will confirm or make a covenant with many, specifically Israel, for one week—seven years in Bible language. This signing marks the appearance of the man and empire, beginning the seven-year treaty.
Les explains that Daniel 9:27 is where Daniel writes that he, the Antichrist, or this prince that shall come up in verse 26, shall confirm or 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 man and the empire make their appearance at the signing of that seven-year treaty. He also notes that this man is given a mouth speaking great things and blasphemies, that Daniel said he would worship only the God of forces and blaspheme God, and that he has economic and military clout, so people worship him and ask who is like him and able to make war with him.
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.
