> The Proper Antecedent of qiso in Dan 9:26b
> I have done a study to identify the actual antecedent of qiso in Dan 9:26b 
> (lit. "his end") and the one that most naturally (i.e., grammatically and 
> syntactically) concords with the 3ms personal pronoun is "the people" 
> (masc. sing.) which is mentioned before in the phrase ‘the people of the 
> Coming Ruler.'
> Some commentators (e.g., Keil & Delitzch) have argued for a reference to 
> ("the Ruler/Prince") but this is grammatically and syntactically not 
> possible (or at least, not probable) for the word "the Ruler" is in 
> "adjectival apposition" to "the people", (an "adnomial" -Waltke and 
> O'Connor, IBHS, 73 #4.6.1), and not a subject and thus not a likely 
> candidate in the same way as adjectival appositions in construct 
> expressions (also with people): "a people of old" (Isa 44:7; Ezek 26:20); 
> "people of rebellion" (Isa 30:9); "holy people" [‘people of holiness'] (Dan 
> 12:7), among other such examples, are not possible subject antecedents.
> Does any know of, or have, a linguistic, and/or exegetical, objections to 
> this antecedent identification? (If necessary, my full exegetical study of 
> Dan 9:26b can be supplied in PDF form to requesting personal email 
> addresses.. (4 pages)).
