Daniel 9:25-26 predicted exact time for the Messiah!

As a Christian with a strong background in the Old Testament, I found this to be the most convincing booklet - packed with information. This is amazing. My sister, Bev, sent me a little book, which was printed years ago, called the Messiah in both Testaments. Not only does it give the most clear presentation of how Jesus, the Messiah, fulfilled 333 specific prophecies - all of which were recorded over 400 years before His birth, but it also clarifies the prophecy in Daniel, which gives us the precise time when He would enter Jerusalem, triumphant, followed by His sacrifice for mankind. I have to share this with you.1. Daniel makes it very clear that the Messiah will come and be "cut off" (die) before the people of the prince (the Romans) shall come and destroy the city (Jerusalem) and the temple. (Daniel 9:26) 2. The Messiah must come 483 years after a specific date in Daniel's time, which was the date of the commandment to restore and build Jerusalem - this was decreed by Artaxerxes in 444 B.C. (Daniel 9:25, 26) The date for the Messiah to make His triumphal entry into Jerusalem would be 70 x 7 or 490 years beyond the date of 444 B.C. 3. The following is an exact quote from the booklet as it refers to the mathematics of Sir Robert Anderson."He starts with March 14, 444 B. C., the date of the commandment to restore and build Jerusalem; and he ends the period with Jesus' triumphal entry into Jerusalem (which he believes was the official presentation of the Messiah as "Prince" to Israel. After careful investigation and consultation with noted astronomers, he gives these startling findings: From 444 B.C. to 32 A.D. is 476 years; 476 x 365 = 173,740 days; from March 14 to April 6 (the day of Christ's triumphal entry) is 24 days; add 116 days for leap years, and you get a total of 173,880 days. Since the "prophetic year" of the Bible is always 360 days, the 69 sevens of this prophecy in Daniel (69 x 7 x 360) is 173,880 days! And so the time given by Daniel from the "commandment to restore and build Jerusalem" to "Messiah the Prince" comes out perfectly to the very day!" 4. Jesus of Nazareth fulfills ALL the specifications as to His lineage, His birthplace, and the time of His birth. Amazingly, within a generation of Christ's sufferings on the cross, the temple was destroyed (70 A.D.), the Jewish priesthood ceased to exist, the sacrifices were no longer offered, the Jews' genealogical records were destroyed, and the people of Israel were driven out of their land, sold into slavery, and dispersed to the four corners of the earth. Hence, it has been utterly impossible for a "Messiah" to come with proper credentials such as the Old Testament demands and such as Jesus of Nazareth presented.
