Daniel 9, False Peace, and the Moment the Mask Comes Off

The Covenant With Many

Dec 28, 2025

In Part I HERE and Part II HERE, we established three immovable truths:

First, the Abrahamic story is not symbolic — it is prophetic.
Second, the fracture between Isaac and Ishmael is not ethnic — it is covenantal.
Third, the Antichrist does not rise through chaos, but through counterfeit unity built on that fracture.

Now we arrive at the passage where theory becomes timeline.

Daniel 9 is where the inheritance war stops being historical and becomes operational.

Daniel’s Vision Was About Messiah — Until It Wasn’t

Daniel 9 is often taught as a mathematical prophecy. Weeks, years, timelines, charts.

But before it is any of those things, it is a covenant prophecy.

Daniel is praying about:

Jerusalem
The people of Israel
The promises of God
The future of redemption

Gabriel’s response confirms that the vision concerns:

The coming of Messiah
The atonement for sin
Everlasting righteousness

But then the prophecy pivots.

And that pivot is where everything changes.

“He Shall Confirm a Covenant With Many”

Daniel 9:27 states:

“He shall confirm a covenant with many for one week, but in the middle of the week he shall bring an end to sacrifice and offering.”

This is not Messiah.

Messiah ends sacrifice by fulfilling it.
This figure ends sacrifice by abolishing it.

This is not salvation.
This is control.

The Hebrew language here is precise. The covenant is not created — it is confirmed.

Meaning:

It already exists in principle
It is already acceptable to many
It is already desirable

The Antichrist does not introduce a new religion.

He formalizes an old one.

Covenant Language Without Covenant Authority

This is the culmination of the Abrahamic fracture.

The covenant “with many” is not the Abrahamic covenant God made.
It is a political-religious framework that borrows Abrahamic legitimacy while rejecting Abrahamic fulfillment.

It appeals to:

Jews longing for security
Muslims longing for recognition
Christians longing for peace

All without demanding submission to Christ.

This is why it works.

The Middle of the Week: When Peace Ends

Daniel says the covenant holds — briefly.

Then something happens.

Sacrifice and offering are stopped.
Authority is centralized.
Worship is redirected.
Blasphemy follows.

Paul describes the same moment:

“He opposes and exalts himself against every so-called god or object of worship, so that he takes his seat in the temple of God.
