Time, Times, and Half a Time | Daniel’s 70th Week Explained
What does the biblical phrase “time, times, and half a time” mean? In this Bible prophecy study, we examine Daniel 9 and 12, Matthew 24, and Revelation 11–13 to understand the prophetic timeline surrounding Daniel’s 70th Week, the Great Tribulation, the Abomination of Desolation, and the return of Christ.
What You’ll Learn
This teaching explains how the Bible connects time, times, and half a time with 42 months and 1,260 days, pointing to a period of three and a half years. You’ll see how these time periods appear throughout Daniel and Revelation and how they fit into the larger seven-year period known as Daniel’s 70th Week.
Daniel’s 70 Weeks and Bible Prophecy
The study examines Daniel 9:24–27, including the 70 weeks, the 69 weeks leading to Messiah, the destruction of Jerusalem, and the future 70th week. It also explores why Israel’s return to the land and control of Jerusalem are important to the prophetic framework presented in this teaching.
The Covenant and the Abomination of Desolation
The final portion focuses on the future seven-year covenant with Israel, the midpoint of the 70th Week, and the Abomination of Desolation. The teaching explains why the covenant is presented as a significant prophetic event and how the first three and a half years relate to the beginning of the prophetic birth pains.
