"WHO ARE THE "MANY" ?"



WHO ARE THE "MANY" IN THE FOLLOWING TWO SCRIPTURES ?............


I submit to you that the "many" spoken of in the following TWO Scriptures are exactly THE VERY SAME GROUP in BOTH of the following TWO Scriptures :

Daniel 9:27

"And He shall confirm the covenant with MANY for one week."

Matthew 26:28

"For this is My blood of the New Testament ( Covenant ) which is shed for MANY for the remission of sins."


SO, THERE YOU HAVE IT:

Because the "MANY" spoken of in BOTH of these Scriptures is exactly the very SAME GROUP, the “HE" in Daniel 9:27 is Jesus Christ - NOT THE ANTI-CHRIST !

  

The prophecy of  Daniel 9:27 tells us that "He", Jesus Christ in the future, will confirm the third promise of the Abrahamic Covenant which was that  God would send a Promised Messiah to the " MANY" descendants of Abraham. 

Matthew 26:28 describes Jesus in the act of fulfilling that prophecy for the "MANY" descendants of Abraham spoken of in Daniel 9:27. 

Daniel 9:27 is the prophecy made "WITH MANY" descendants of Abraham, and Matthew 26:28 is the prophecy fulfilled "FOR MANY" descendants of Abraham. Jesus is the One spoken of in BOTH Scriptures !


According to Your Word, come Lord Jesus !
