Daniel 9:1-27 — it THE PRAYING PROPHET (1-19) (1,2) Though a prophet of God Daniel still sought to understand Gods Word. While pondering Jeremiah 25:8-11 he understood the 70 year captivity was almost over. Remember: Judah owed God 70 years, because for the 490 years they were in the land they were to have set aside every 7th year for the land to have a Sabbaths rest. They never did. After they stacked up owing God 70, God said that’s enough. Maybe to forgive 70 x 7 is literal number? That

Numbers 1:1-54 — carnal Christians whose belief & disobedience prevent them from entering into all that God has for them. While it may be necessary to pass through wilderness experiences, one does not have to live there! For Israel, an 11 day journey became a 40-year agony! Genesis pictures God’s people as pilgrims & strangers, looking for their inheritance. Exodus & Leviticus depicts Israel as a holy nation of priests, worshiping the Lord.
