4) Jerusalem is already built and has been in the hands of Israel since
1967. Placing the entire 70 weeks in the future requires that Jerusalem
would have to be destroyed again, so that a word would be given to restore
it again. But why would a word be needed? Jerusalem is in Israel's hands.
5) v25 - The street shall be built again and the wall. That should refer
to
ancient time when there was one main street and one wall around it.
6) the confirming of the covenant, and the prince causing the sacrifice to
cease (v27) takes place after the city and sanctuary are destroyed (v26).
How could the sacrifices still be going on if the temple was previously
destroyed?
