Two regular guys read Daniel 9 in the NIV, moving from a heartfelt national confession to Gabriel’s message about the seventy sevens. We weigh major views on the timelines, center on the anointed one, and end with practical ways to pray with humility and hope.

• context of exile and Jeremiah’s seventy years
• Daniel’s “we” confession and national repentance
• humility that appeals to mercy not merit
• God’s righteousness in judgment and covenant faithfulness
• Gabriel’s arrival and purpose to give understanding
• survey of views on the seventy sevens
• the anointed one and the shape of atonement
• why date-setting distracts from obedience
• applying corporate confession and accountability
• knowing Scripture to spot truth and counterfeits

Read it and weep. Well, I don't know if you'll cry or not, but read it.
