Seventy Weeks — Timing of the Messiah

Fulfilled
538 BC — Babylon
Seventy 'sevens' are decreed for your people and your holy city. From the time the word goes out to restore and rebuild Jerusalem until the Anointed One comes, there will be seven 'sevens' and sixty-two 'sevens.' After the sixty-two 'sevens,' the Anointed One will be put to death and will have nothing.
Historical Fulfilment

Scholars calculate 69 'weeks' (483 years) from Artaxerxes' decree to rebuild Jerusalem (445 BC) to approximately 33 AD — aligning with Jesus' triumphal entry and crucifixion.
