Interesting thing, because he's the one who gives the countdown, God, through him.

有趣的是，倒計時是由上帝通過他發出的。

But it's amazing because when you open up the New Testament, guess who it is who's revealing that the countdown is going to be fulfilled?

但令人驚奇的是，當你翻開《新約全書》，猜猜是誰在揭示倒計時即將實現？

Verse 20.

第 20 節

That's the context.

這就是背景。

While I was speaking and praying, confessing my sin and the sin of my people, Israel, and making my request to the Lord my God for his holy hill, Jerusalem, while I was still in prayer, Gabriel, the man I had seen in the earlier vision, came to me in swift flight about the time of the evening sacrifice.

就在我說話和禱告，承認我和我的子民以色列人的罪，並向耶和華我的上帝提出對他的聖山耶路撒冷的請求時，就在我還在禱告時，加百列，也就是我在之前的異象中看到的那個人，在傍晚獻祭的時候飛快地來到了我的面前。

He instructed me and said to me, Daniel, I've now come to give you insight and understanding.

他訓示我，對我說：丹尼爾，我現在來給你啟示和理解。

As soon as you began to pray, a word went out, and I have, which I have come to tell you, for you are highly esteemed.

你一開始禱告，就有一句話傳了出去，我有，我是來告訴你的，因為你備受尊敬。

Therefore consider the word and understand the vision.

是以，請思考這個詞，理解這個願景。

Seventy-sevens are decreed for your people and your holy city to finish the transgression, to put an end to sin, to atone for evil, to bring in everlasting righteousness, to seal up vision and prophecy, and to anoint the Most Holy.

為你的子民和你的聖城定下了七十個七，以結束過犯，結束罪惡，為邪惡贖罪，帶來永恆的公義，封住異象和預言，膏抹至聖。

Know and understand this.

瞭解並理解這一點。

From the time the word goes forth to restore and rebuild Jerusalem, until the Anointed One, the Ruler, comes, there will be seven sevens and sixty-two sevens.

從傳出恢復和重建耶路撒冷的資訊開始，直到受膏者、統治者降臨，將有七個七和六十二個七。

It will be rebuilt with street and trench, but in times of trouble.

它將與街道和壕溝一起重建，但在困難時期。

After the sixty-two sevens, the Anointed One will be put to death and will have nothing.

六十二個七之後，受膏者將被處死，一無所有。

The people of the Ruler, or the Prince who is to come, will destroy the city and the sanctuary.

統治者或即將到來的王子的子民將摧毀城市和聖所。

The end will come like a flood.

末日將如洪水般來臨。

He will confirm a covenant with one, with many, for one seven.

他將與一個人、許多人、七個人立約。

In the middle of the seven he will put an end to sacrifice and offering.

在這七個中間，他將結束祭祀和獻祭。

And at the temple he will set up an abomination that causes desolation until the end that is decreed is poured out on him.

他要在聖殿裡設立憎惡，造成荒涼，直到所定的末日傾倒在他身上。

Okay.

好的

This is one of the, this is one of the most amazing prophecies ever given.

這是有史以來最驚人的預言之一。

So amazing that there was a man, there was a rabbi in Eastern Europe, an Orthodox rabbi who saw this.

令人驚奇的是，有一個人，東歐的一個拉比，一個東正教拉比看到了這一幕。

And this alone caused him to become a believer in Jesus.

僅憑這一點，他就成了耶穌的信徒。

And he started an organization called the American Board of Missionaries of the Jews.

他成立了一個名為 "美國猶太人傳教士委員會 "的組織。

Now it's called Chosen People.

現在，它被稱為 "天選之人"。

And from that organization came Jews for Jesus.

從這個組織中產生了 "猶太人擁護耶穌 "組織。

It all started with this prophecy.

一切都源於這個預言。

Let's first establish what we have seen here.

讓我們首先確定我們在這裡看到了什麼。

The prophecy is so powerful, so exact.

預言是如此有力，如此準確。

It has been argued by anti-missionaries and those who oppose the Gospel, since it was fulfilled, that the main argument of the, against it, among these, is that it's not talking about the Messiah.

反傳教士和反對《福音書》的人認為，自從《福音書》應驗以來，反對《福音書》的人的主要論點是，《福音書》沒有提到彌賽亞。

Because the same word can be translated, an anointed.

因為同一個詞可以翻譯為 "受膏者"。

It can be an anointed priest, or an anointed person.

可以是受膏的牧師，也可以是受膏的人。

It's used in the Bible, an anointed.

聖經》中用的是 "受膏者"。

Plus it says, ... the first word anointed, but the second word prince.

另外它還說，......第一個詞是受膏者，第二個詞是王子。

So it can mean an anointed prince.

是以，它可以指受膏者王子。

That's what they argue.

這就是他們的論點。

But none of the arguments can stand.

但這些論點都站不住腳。

Number one.

第一

Whenever the word anointed is used in the Bible, it is qualified by something.

每當《聖經》中使用 "受膏者 "這個詞時，它都會受到某種限定。

And it gives a context, so you know it's an anointed.

它提供了一個背景，讓你知道這是一個受膏者。

This person is anointed.

這個人是受膏者。

This is an anointed.

這是一位受膏者。

Cyrus, an anointed person.

居魯士，一個受膏者。

But here there is no qualification.

但這裡沒有任何限定條件。

It simply says the anointed.

它只是說受膏者。

It says Mashiach.

上面寫著 "馬西亞"。

That is the word Messiah.

這就是彌賽亞。

There is no qualifier.

沒有限定詞。

It can only be the Messiah.

那隻能是彌賽亞。

Number two.

二號

In Hebrew the adjective comes after the noun, not before it, like in English.

在希伯來語中，形容詞位於名詞之後，而不像英語那樣位於名詞之前。

So if it says Mashiach Nagid, it doesn't mean the anointed prince.

是以，如果上面說的是 "馬希亞奇-納吉德"（Mashiach Nagid），那就不是受膏王子的意思了。

It means the anointed Messiah who is also a prince or ruler.

意思是受膏的彌賽亞，他也是王子或統治者。

Number three.

三號

Rabbis try to argue that Daniel 9 is not about the Messiah.

拉比們試圖爭辯說但以理書第 9 章不是關於彌賽亞的。

But the thing is that, I mean number one, again the very word, this is the word Messiah.

但問題是，我的意思是，第一，還是彌賽亞這個詞。

It's not just talking about Messiah.

這不僅僅是在談論彌賽亞。

It's saying Mashiach.

這是在說馬希亞奇。

And number four.

第四點

Daniel 9 is, is, is the absolute clearest prophecy of when Messiah is coming in the Hebrew scriptures.

但以理書 9 絕對是希伯來經文中關於彌賽亞何時降臨的最清晰預言。

Even the rabbis in their writings say it's about Messiah.

甚至拉比在他們的著作中也說這是關於彌賽亞的。

The ancient rabbis say this is about Messiah.

古代拉比說這是關於彌賽亞的。

On top of it, what is the context?

除此之外，背景是什麼？

The context is this coming of this one is going to bring about an end of sin, atone for iniquity, finish transgression, seal of vision and prophecy.

上下文是這一位的到來將帶來罪的終結、贖罪、結束過犯、封印異象和預言。

Who's going to do that?

誰會這麼做？

It's not going to be Marty the fish salesman.

不會是賣魚的馬蒂。

It's only the Messiah.

只有彌賽亞

Who could do that?

誰能做到這一點？

It's clearly the Messiah.

這顯然是彌賽亞。

On top of that there is an ancient translation of the Bible written by the rabbis before the New Testament called the Septuagint, where they took the Hebrew scriptures, put it in Greek.

此外，在《新約聖經》之前，拉比們還寫了一本古老的《聖經》譯本，叫做《七十士譯本》，他們把希伯來經文翻譯成希臘文。

And you know what they did with this?

你知道他們用這個做了什麼嗎？

When it comes to this it says, literally, it says until Christ comes, is what the rabbis wrote.

拉比是這樣寫的，字面意思是說，直到基督降臨。

The word they wrote is Christos, is Christ.

他們寫的詞是 Christos，即基督。

So it's literally saying until Christ comes and then Christ will be cut off.

是以，字面上的意思是，直到基督降臨，然後基督將被斬首。

The ancient rabbis before the New Testament.

新約》之前的古代拉比。

So it is clearly talking about the Messiah.

是以，這顯然是在談論彌賽亞。

So what is it telling us?

那麼，它在告訴我們什麼呢？

I mean if, without knowing anything else, what is it telling you?

我的意思是，如果在不知道任何其他資訊的情況下，它能告訴你什麼？

It's telling you this.

它在告訴你

It says Messiah will come.

它說彌賽亞將會降臨。

Messiah will be cut off.

彌賽亞將被斬首。

And then what does it say?

然後呢？

It says then the city and the sanctuary will be destroyed.

它說，到那時，城市和聖所都將被摧毀。

What city?

哪個城市？

Jerusalem.

耶路撒冷

Obviously.

很明顯

That's what it's talking about.

這就是它所說的。

And what's the sanctuary?

避難所是什麼？

The temple.

寺廟

So therefore Messiah will come.

是以，彌賽亞將會降臨。

Then the city Jerusalem and the sanctuary, the temple, will be destroyed.

然後，耶路撒冷城和聖所，即聖殿，將被摧毀。

So do we know if that happened?

那麼，我們知道這是否發生過嗎？

Well it happened.

就這樣發生了。

It happened in the year 70 AD.

事情發生在公元 70 年。

The destruction of Jerusalem and the temple.

耶路撒冷和聖殿的毀滅

So what does that, what does that mean?

這意味著什麼？

It means whoever the Messiah is, he had to have come before the date 70 AD.

這意味著，無論彌賽亞是誰，他都必須在公元 70 年之前到來。

No matter what.

無論如何

Anybody who comes after that is disqualified.

在此之後的任何人都將被取消資格。

And there have been many Jewish people who came up among the Jewish people and said we're the Messiah, after the fact they cannot be.

有許多猶太人站出來說，我們就是彌賽亞，但事實上他們不可能是彌賽亞。

Do we know of anybody who came before the year 70 AD who came as Messiah and has a reasonable claim?

我們知道有誰在公元 70 年前以彌賽亞的身份降臨，並有合理的說法嗎？

Is there anybody in Jewish history?

猶太曆史上有人嗎？

There's only one.

只有一個

In all of Jewish history before the year 70 AD, actually after it just as well, but before the year there's only one contender.

在公元 70 年之前的所有猶太曆史中，其實公元 70 年之後也一樣，但在公元 70 年之前，只有一個競爭者。

There's no number two runner up.

沒有第二名。

There's only one.

只有一個

And he happens to be known around the world as the Christ, which is the translation of Messiah.

他恰好被世人稱為 "基督"，也就是 "彌賽亞 "的譯音。

Only one.

只有一個

There's only one famous for dying for sins.

為罪孽而死的人只有一個。

Daniel 9.

但以理書 9.

He'll be cut off.

他會被切斷。

He'll make an end of sin.

他將終結罪惡。

Matches up with Isaiah 53.

與《以賽亞書》第 53 章不謀而合。

He will die for sin.

他將為罪而死。

Could God, you put it all together.

上帝啊，你把這一切都串聯起來了。

Could God make this any clearer than that?

上帝還能說得更清楚嗎？

But then there are the 77's.

但還有 77 型號。

What are they?

它們是什麼？

Sometimes you'll hear it said the 70 weeks of Daniel.

有時你會聽到有人說是但以理書中的 70 周。

The 77's.

77年代

Well the word is, it just in Hebrew says 77.

這個詞在希伯來語中是 77。

So we translate that as weeks or sevens.

是以，我們將其翻譯為周或七。

Now what is it?

現在是什麼？

77's of what?

77 的什麼？

It's a time period clearly.

這顯然是一個時間段。

Is it 77's of days?

是 77 天嗎？

It can't be.

不可能

Because 77's of days would be 490 days.

因為 77 的天數就是 490 天。

And it's talking about, it's saying Jerusalem's going to be rebuilt.

它說，耶路撒冷將被重建。

The temple's going to be rebuilt.

聖殿將被重建。

It's all going to be, well you cannot do that in a year, less than a year and a half.

你不可能在一年或不到一年半的時間內做到這一點。

The context clearly is years.

背景顯然是歲月。

And it's already there in the context.

這一點在上下文中已經有所體現。

How does Daniel begin it?

丹尼爾是如何開始的？

Daniel begins by saying, I was studying the words of the prophet Jeremiah.

但以理一開始就說，我正在研讀先知耶利米的話。

And Jeremiah, it was revealed to him that the Jewish people would be in exile for how many?

還有耶利米，他得到啟示，猶太人將被流放多少年？

Seventy years.

七十年

Seventy years.

七十年

Now why were they in exile for 70 years?

為什麼他們要流亡 70 年？

Why?

為什麼？

They were there for, I mean of course for judgment.

他們在那裡，我是說當然是為了審判。

But why 70 years?

但為什麼是 70 年？

God says it.

上帝說的

He says they will be in exile for every Sabbath year they did not observe.

他說，他們每不遵守一年安息日，就會被流放一年。

Now it's not, it's for many, you know, they were offering up their children as sacrifices.

現在不是了，對許多人來說，你知道，他們把自己的孩子當作祭品獻祭。

But the timing is linked to the Sabbath year, the Shemitah.

但時間是與安息年（Shemitah）聯繫在一起的。

So what it's saying here is this.

所以，這裡說的就是這個意思。

For every year that the land didn't rest.

因為土地每一年都沒有休息。

Every seven years was a Sabbath year.

每七年是一個安息年。

The land was supposed to rest.

這片土地本該休養生息。

So now the land is going to rest for all those 70 years, all those 70 Sabbaths.

是以，現在這塊土地要在所有這 70 年、所有這 70 個安息日裡休息。

While the people are going to be in exile.

而人民將被流放。

So now, now, now concentrate. 70 years.

所以，現在，現在，現在集中精力。70年了

Those 70 years in, of exile, of the land resting represents how many years?

這 70 年的流亡生活和土地休養生息代表了多少年？

It's 70, 70 Sabbath years.

這是 70 個安息日，70 年。

So it represents a period of how many years?

那麼它代表了多少年的時間？

490 years that they didn't observe the Sabbath year.

他們不遵守安息年的 490 年。

So it comes up to 70 Sabbath years.

是以，總共有 70 個安息年。

You get it?

你明白了嗎？

Are you with me?

你支持我嗎？

70, how do you do in math?

70，你的數學成績如何？

490 years they did not observe the Sabbath year.

是以，它代表了一段長達 490 年的時間，在這段時間裡，他們進入了 70 年的審判。

Now God is taking 70 years of judgment and he is now decompressing them that they're going to become 490 years to redemption.

現在，上帝把 70 年的審判減壓為 490 年的救贖。

You get it now?

現在明白了嗎？

You had, you had 490 years of sin.

你有，你有 490 年的罪孽。

They get compressed into 70 years of judgment.

他們被壓縮在 70 年的審判中。

Now the 70 years of Daniel are going to become 490 years to Messiah.

現在，但以理書中的 70 年將變成彌賽亞的 490 年。

Okay?

好嗎？

Redemption.

救贖

All right.

好吧

Now, so he's clearly speaking of 77s of years. 490 years to go.

現在，他說的顯然是 77 年。還有 490 年。

Okay.

好的

Now this God is giving a prophetic countdown which no other faith ever does.

現在，這位上帝給出了一個預言性的倒計時，這是其他信仰從未有過的。

No other faith steps out.

沒有其他信仰站出來。

It gives an exact countdown.

它給出了精確的倒計時。

Now interesting, because the Bible says, because Daniel says that Gabriel appeared to me with this.

現在有趣了，因為《聖經》說，因為但以理書說，加百列向我顯現了這個。

When?

什麼時候？

He appeared to me it says at the time of the evening sacrifice.

他向我顯現的時候，是在晚上獻祭的時候。

Now there was, this is the interesting thing, is there was no sacrifice.

有趣的是，當時並沒有人獻祭。

There was no temple.

沒有寺廟。

So why that make a point?

那麼，為什麼要這樣做呢？

There's something about that.

這其中有蹊蹺。

It says he came at the time of the evening sacrifice, but there was no sacrifice.

書上說他在晚上獻祭的時候來了，但並沒有獻祭。

Interesting.

有意思

He still came at the set time.

他還是在規定的時間來了。

Why?

為什麼？

Because the, the evening sacrifice was the final sacrifice of the day.

因為晚上的祭祀是一天中最後的祭祀。

Final sacrifice.

最後的犧牲

And what is the prophecy going to be about?

預言的內容是什麼？

The prophecy is going to be about the final sacrifice of Messiah.

這個預言是關於彌賽亞的最後獻祭。

So he does it at the time of the final sacrifice, even though there's no temple.

是以，儘管沒有神廟，他也會在最後獻祭時這樣做。

But there will be.

但會有的。

Gabriel.

加布裡埃爾

Gabriel.

加布裡埃爾

Gabriel.

加布裡埃爾

Man of valor.

勇敢的人

Angel.

天使

Interesting thing.

有趣的是

Because he's the one who gives the countdown, God through him.

因為是他在倒計時，上帝通過他在倒計時。

But it's amazing because when you open up the New Testament, guess who it is who's revealing that the countdown is going to be fulfilled?

但令人驚奇的是，當你翻開《新約全書》，猜猜是誰在揭示倒計時即將實現？

Gabriel.

加布裡埃爾

Same guy who gave the countdown is the one in the New Testament.

新約》中的倒計時者也是他。

Opens it up when he gives a word to the priest, to the priest, Zechariah, that now it's about to get rolling because that countdown is going to be fulfilled.
