    Yeah I was sarcastically taking it literal as real stars. As a "literal" joke. I hope he doesn't believe actual stars will fall. Anyways Moving on.

    A star is a luminous ball of gas, mostly hydrogen and helium, held together by its own gravity. Nuclear fusion reactions in its core support the star against gravity and produce photons and heat, as well as small amounts of heavier elements. The word star can mean any heavenly body. It can also...

    Oh I get Tcass, you thought he wanted me to learn Hebrew over the weekend and then download Daniel in Hebrew and read it. That is a honest mistake, I can see how you came to that conclusion.

    Clearly you still don't understand the point I was trying to make. Im sorry I can not use crayons and glitter to explain my threads on here. But alright, if you THINK you proved me wrong, ( I never made a statement to be proven right or wrong ) I was asking HIM to explain that verse. Not saying...

    The whole context of the commentary was the 70 weeks. Where he said This passage was Daniel 9:27, because thats the passage I was talking about. "The he in Daniel 9:27, is talking about the Messiah". That was the only passage I was talking about. Remember convenater this is how scripture is...

    My thesis fails? Oh my. You are totally missing the point. The point of this is in Russia and you are on Jupiter. My actual view of this is they are not anything to do with space, but with people. But thanks for thinking you understood my point. Asteroids (from Greek ἀστήρ 'star' and εἶδος...

    I agree, I'm just seeing what robycop3 thinks is literal or not

    That was the whole topic of conversation, and he wanted me to read the K&D commentary on the 70 weeks of daniel, because I was "thinking in english". The Hebrew in this passage is the 70 weeks passage. So I'm not sure how covenanter is wrong. That is the commentary he recommended to, within...

    The point was.... robycop3 is a literalist, a shooting star/ a meteor is not a star, never was a star and never will be a star. So Im trying to figure out where he draws his line between what he keeps saying is literal and what he believes is symbolic. If matthew 24 has to be literal why can't...

    Show me PROOF/EVIDENCE/DOCUMENTATION Revelations 6:13 and the stars in the sky fell to earth, as figs drop from a fig tree when shaken by a strong wind. on how that is literally possible. Until you do that, your literal interpretation of the events is moot and untrue.

    Oh yes what what I'm gathering that was the conclusion of the K&D commentary. Daniels 70 weeks are consecutive. No need for a 2000 year plus time gap.

    K&D Against this new attempt to solve the mystery of the seventy weeks, Hofmann, in Schriftbew. ii. 2, p. 594, raises the objection, "that in Dan 9:26 a period must be described which belongs to the past, and in Dan 9:27, on the contrary, another which belongs to the time of the end; this makes...

    24) Seventy weeks (490 years) are determined upon your people and upon your holy city, to finish the transgression, and to make an end of sins, and to make reconciliation for iniquity, and to bring in everlasting righteousness, and to seal up the vision and prophecy, and to anoint the Holy of...

    You are complicating that verse even more past my point against a future antichrist.

    I spent 3 hours this morning reading commentaries, and 99% of the futurist ones said pretty much, verse 27 has happened yet, so it must be a future antichrist, or they just said this is referring to the antichrist. They have no idea where they get that idea, one even said the semi colon...

    Nah its just the creditably of futurists is lacking. Its been the end of the word for 2000 years, and yet here we are. If this was around 1948, we would all be having a talk about how the Fig tree is Israel getting its leaves back. But here we are more than a generation after it and no planes...

    I will look at that commentary but EVEN on Jewish website dan 9:27 reads. I will read that commentary, But even after looking at jewish commentaries, The antecedent of the word "he, refers back to the the anointed one to most of them, does it have to in Hebrew? No I think they gave a couple...
