The People Were In Expectation Of the Messiahs Arrival

Posted on January 21, 2013 by ideacreamanuela

From the going forth of the word to restore and to rebuild

Jerusalem until Messiah the Leader, there will be seven weeks,also sixty-two weeks.Daniel 9:25.

Fulfillment: The period of time specified in Daniels prophecy

amounts to 69 units of 7 years each, or 483 years. The rebuilding of

Jerusalem began in 455 B.C.E. As prophesied, 483 years (69 weeks

of years) later, in 29 C.E., Jesus became the Anointed One, or

Messiah, when he was baptized and anointed with Gods holy spirit.*

Luke 3:21, 22.

What history reveals:

In the early part of the first century C.E., the people were in expectation of the Messiahs

arrival. (Luke 3:15) In his bookA History of Messianic Speculation in Israel,Jewish scholar

Abba Hillel Silver writes that the period before the destruction of Jerusalem witnessed a

remarkable outburst of Messianic emotionalism. He also notes that the Messiah was

expected around the second quarter of the first century. The anticipation of the Jews, Silver

writes, was based on the popular chronology of that day.
