Beloved, this is absolutely mindblowing to me! The Lord Jesus perfectly understood Daniel 9:24-27 and used this prophetic text in Matthew 18:21-22 as an example of what full and complete forgiveness is in RIGHTEOUSNESS! I wonder if Peter truly understood what text Jesus was referring to and its complete meaning, as Jesus taught Peter this Divine lesson on true and full forgiveness and its restoration in RIGHTEOUSNESS!
I wonder if Peter truly understood what text Jesus was referring to as He taught Peter this Divine lesson on true and complete forgiveness and restoration in RIGHTEOUSNESS!
The Lord Jesus also testified as He carried His cross to the children of Israel of that day, and stated in Luke 19:41-43 that, "Only if they knew the time of their visitation" and what would happen in the near future as a result of their being ignorant of the wonderful prophetic truths found in Daniel 9:24-26. O beloved, how many believers in the risen Savior of today miss all the signs and wonders of our hour! No wonder the Rapture Trumpet for the Body of Christ will come as a thief to many in these ever-growing EXPONENTIAL Last Days (1 Thess. 4:13-18; 5:1-4)!
Beloved, below is a brief outline of Jesus' message to Peter on full and complete forgiveness in RIGHTEOUSNESS and its complete and full reconciliation of both parties! Also, it is a deeper look into the beautiful love and reconciliation of Yahweh God with His people Israel in the near future (Zech. 12-14)! The very One teaching Peter on forgiveness and reconciliation in RIGHTEOUSNESS, will be the very One who will be the propitiation for Israel, but also the whole world (Isa. 53, 1 John 4:7-10)! O beloved! How absolutely beautiful is that!
Divine Restoration and Forgiveness in RIGHTEOUSNESS - Daniel 9:24-27
When Jesus said:
“I say not unto thee, Until seven times: but, Until seventy times seven.”
— Matthew 18:22
He used the exact language of Daniel 9:24:
“Seventy weeks (seventy sevens) are determined upon thy people…”
Daniel’s phrase “70 weeks” literally means:
In Hebrew:
shabuim = “sevens”
So 70 sevens = 490
Jesus’ wording directly echoes Daniel’s timeline.
Daniel 9:24–27 lays out six purposes God will accomplish within these “70 sevens”:
Finish the transgression
Make an end of sins
Make reconciliation for iniquity
Bring in everlasting righteousness
Seal up the vision and prophecy
Anoint the Most Holy
These are fulfilled in stages:
First 69 weeks (483 years) → Messiah comes
Gap (church age)
Final 70th week (7 years) → tribulation, covenant, abomination of desolation, restoration
Thus, “70 × 7” is a complete, divine cycle of redemption.
When Peter asked Jesus how often to forgive, Jesus responded:
This is not accidental.
As God is completing His 490-year plan to forgive Israel, so you must forgive fully and completely.
It’s a prophetic hint pointing back to Daniel’s countdown of forgiveness and reconciliation:
Daniel 9:24 → “to make an end of sins”
Matthew 18 → forgive without limit
Jesus was saying:
Forgive as God forgives: completely, fully, perfectly — “70 sevens.”
490 appears repeatedly:
70 × 7 = 490 years of Israel’s sabbath-rest violations → leading to Babylon (2 Chron. 36:21)
70 × 7 = Daniel’s prophetic timetable
70 × 7 = Jesus’ call for complete forgiveness
It always symbolizes:
Daniel 9:24 emphasizes forgiveness:
end of sins
reconciliation
everlasting righteousness
Jesus uses the same number to teach:
Since President Obama has left office and the manifestation of his secular agenda has "seemed" to have diminished, many evangelical Christians have felt at ease about the rise and threat of national and social secularism. And have been encouraging themselves and focusing on President Trump's post-Obama agenda and the restoring of America. Now don't get me wrong, we should do all we can to help promote our founding father's view for America in every way, for we live in time and this is our earthly realm (Psalm 34:14, Heb. 12:14); but NEVER at the expense of putting the Gospel of Jesus Christ or the proclamation of the abundance of current prophetic events, which are EXPONENTIALLY teeming with the manifestation of the very soon coming of the Lord on the back burner.
To my surprise since January 20th, I and others have personally found that prophetic interest among evangelicals has dramatically dropped and has slowed way down since President Trump has taken office. This complacency is not good for God's people and is a demonic straw man and deception to distract and lull God's people into a state of false security and idleness, while the enemy moves his demonic agenda forward (Rev. 13). While God's people seemingly are currently distracted by the temporal and earthly of this vain life, they are neglecting Almighty God's present will for their lives and the ETERNAL Kingdom watchmen duties which we are to seek first (Matt. 6:10, 33). Now dear friends, hear me out if you please. We are not to be running around as "Chicken Littles" causing inaccurate unbiblical fears and falsely spiritualizing current events, creating confusion, for that is what Almighty God has called us NOT to do (1 Cor. 14:33, 40). On the other hand, we are to be with ALL biblical discernment and wisdom to be firstly watching, waiting, serving, glorifying, and proclaiming God's ETERNAL glory and goodness. No matter how things may seem to be moving in Washington in light of our present hour, this does not replace the REALITY that Almighty God's Day of global wrath is indeed very nigh as global events clearly tell us (Rev. 6-19), and His return and Kingdom are even at the door!
How can any society survive when moral absolutes are hated, scoffed at, and demonized by millions of Americans and both political parties? The answer is, “It
will not! nor will it EVER!” Thus, we now see the final sad state and coming downfall of
our
once great and highly respected nation as the Day of the Lord is rapidly approaching (Psalm 11:3, Prov. 14:3). 
And Jesus said unto them, Come ye after me, and I will make you to become fishers of men. (Mark 1:17)
