Don't count on anything said here because
1, the Rev said what it was talking about would happen immediately, and support for what the posts say above is from the Rev--not a good idea.
2, we have only one actual link from Jesus to Dan 9, and it is about the awful person who is in the temple and leading a rebellion (8:13). When Jesus quoted this, he was talking about the rebellion that desolated Israel in the 1st century, and likewise Paul when he mentioned the despicable character in the temple.
Once you contradict those things, you are just relying on 19th and 20th century teachers--quite removed from the original time. That's why the interruption theory is so necessary to them (prophecy has been interrupted until just recently). The two things just mentioned have to stay intact.
Also, any time the OT prophets spoke of the fortunes of Israel, it was never secular as today's Israel is. There is never the conception that the secular nation could show up totally apart from an apostolic kind of renewal and it would be the prophetic Israel. It was synced with the coming of the Spirit to bless all nations, which took place in the apostles' generation.
