Daniel 9:26

After threescore, etc.] RV 'after the threescore,' etc. Messiah] RV 'the' (better, 'an') 'anointed one.' A different person from the 'anointed one' of Daniel 9:25 is evidently meant. The one appears at the end of 7, and the other at the end of 69 'weeks.' The reference is probably to the high priest Onias III, who was deposed by Antiochus in 175 b.c., and murdered by a rival in 171 b.c. (2Ma 4:7-9, 2Ma 4:23-27, 2Ma 4:32-36), But not for himself] RV 'and shall have nothing,' an obscure phrase, meaning perhaps,' shall have no legitimate successor.' The prince that shall come] Antiochus Epiphanes. See on Daniel 8:11.

The end thereof] RV 'his end.' Unto the end of the war] RV 'Even unto the end' (see Daniel 8:17; Daniel 8:19) 'shall be war.'
