The focus of Daniel 9:24-27 seems to be, as far as I understand, the events happening after the 62 week period or in my view events occurring at least 69 weeks or 483 years after the edict to build the walls of Jerusalem (Ez 7:11).
As previously mentioned, one of these events is the appearing of The Messiah Prince (v. 25).
Another is the death of the Messiah (v. 26). Still another is the destruction of the temple and city (v. 26). Then it describes him (Messiah) confirming a covenant with many,
a ceasing (shabat) of sacrifice and offering in the middle of the last or 70th week; the last part of the verse gives the reason or cause of the destruction of the desolate city (Jerusalem) as being idolatry or false worship (shiqqutz).
It is my understanding that this 70 week time period or 7 week and 62 week and one week period of Daniel 9: 24-27 are consecutive.
