You are just reading this into the passage. This is all just your Christianity. It says nothing like this.
That is exactly what it says. I did not read anything into it. I can share with you in precise detail what that prophecy is saying:
There are 70 weeks of years. They commence from the call to rebuild Jerusalem. This happened in 455 B. C. E.
There are 7 weeks and also 62 weeks. The first 7 weeks or 49 years was how long it took to rebuild Jerusalem. The next 434 years leads to 29 C. E. when Jesus was baptized in water and with holy spirit.
At the end of the 62 weeks Messiah (the Christ) would be cut off or put to death, in order to make atonement for error, and to finish off sin. This happened at the half of the last week, the 70th week of years, or 3 1/2 years after 29 C. E. At his death on Passover Nisan 14, 33 C. E. he caused "gift offering to cease." That is the holy temple arrangement in Jerusalem was no longer needed. The Law Covenant given to Moses was done away with.
Because the Jews murdered Jesus Christ, the Messiah, the Savior of the world, God's son, and because Jehovah God has already foreseen it, what was decided upon the city Jerusalem, and the holy place, it's temple was destruction.
This happened at the hands of the "people of a leader" that is the Roman Armies, sent by Cestius Gallus commanded by his son, Titus.
There is no reading anything into this prophecy other than exactly what it states, and exactly what happened in real life.
The wing of disgusting things causing desolation were the pagan Roman standards. You see it was a disgusting thing for the Jews to have a pagan Roman standard in the temple courtyard. The Romans seiged Jerusalem and the disgusting thing was in her. Jesus even spoke of this prophecy and applied it to Jerusalem itself. There is NO getting over the fact that it referred to the Roman armies destruction of Jerusalem, or the fact that Jesus was a real prophet and said it himself:
“
Therefore, when you catch sight of the disgusting thing that causes desolation, as spoken about by Daniel the prophet, standing in a holy place (let the reader use discernment), 16 then let those in Ju·deʹa begin fleeing to the mountains. 17 Let the man on the housetop not come down to take the goods out of his house, 18 and let the man in the field not return to pick up his outer garment. 19 Woe to the pregnant women and those nursing a baby in those days! 20 Keep praying that your flight may not occur in wintertime nor on the Sabbath day; 21 for then there will be great tribulation such as has not occurred since the world’s beginning until now, no, nor will occur again. 22 In fact, unless those days were cut short, no flesh would be saved; but on account of the chosen ones those days will be cut short."-Matthew 24:15-22.
(Daniel 9:24-27) . . . “
There are 70 weeks that have been determined for your people and your holy city, in order to terminate the transgression, to finish off sin, to make atonement for error, to bring in everlasting righteousness, to seal up the vision and the prophecy, and to anoint the Holy of Holies. 25 You should know and understand that from the issuing of the word to restore and to rebuild Jerusalem until Mes·siʹah the Leader, there will be 7 weeks, also 62 weeks. She will be restored and rebuilt, with a public square and moat, but in times of distress. 26 “And after the 62 weeks, Mes·siʹah will be cut off, with nothing for himself. “And the people of a leader who is coming will destroy the city and the holy place. And its end will be by the flood. And until the end there will be war; what is decided upon is desolations. 27 “And he will keep the covenant in force for the many for one week; and at the half of the week, he will cause sacrifice and gift offering to cease. “And on the wing of disgusting things there will be the one causing desolation; and until an extermination, what was decided on will be poured out also on the one lying desolate.”
