Ep 149. Daniel chapter 9: Seventy Sevens (Women's Bible Study)

Judah's time in exile is almost over according to the word of the Lord to Jeremiah. As Daniel is reading Jeremiah's scroll, he comes across the passage where God tells Jeremiah that the people of Judah will serve the king of Babylon for 70 years. Now since Daniel is also a student of the Torah, he also knows that the final phase of judgement (namely, exile) doesn't end until there is repentance and a turning back to the Lord. So what's a man of God to do? Daniel sets out to be the voice of contrition for his people, pleading for mercy according to the covenant promises God has made. And he receives a supernatural answer. The angel Gabriel visits Daniel again to explain how and when restoration will take place. Not when the 70 years end, but when 70 Sevens have passed. You know my motto: Don't get bogged down in the specific details. We can understand even amid the interpretations of the experts, that quite frankly, are a little messy, in my opinion.   Here is the link for the sermon I mentioned at the beginning: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/a-model-confession/id1473052173?i=1000668065351     For a little extra for no charge, follow She Walks Worthy Podcast on Facebook or Instagram: https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=61566142198837 SheWalksWorthyPodcast (@shewalksworthypodcast) • Instagram photos and videos Follow along for Women's Bible Study or Bible Study for Women (however you prefer to say it!), Beginners Bible Study, Teen Bible Study, Bible Study for New Christians, Busy Mom's Bible Study, Working Woman Bible Study, Mature Christian Bible Study,    Daniel chapter 9 | Seventy Weeks | 70 Sevens | Daniel's Confession |
