Daniel 9:26-27, 11:31.
The Abomination of Desolation took place
with Antiochus Epiphanes (IV). However,
for Jesus to refer to it as something to come, it shows us that it will take
place again, by another person or perhaps in an even more devastating way (if
possible). It could be why He specifically
says, “let the reader understand”.
The Old Testament taught the Jews that
they weren’t to eat pig, it was unclean.
The abomination was that Antiochus Epiphanes slaughtered a pig on the
temple altar and then jammed the mean down the throats of the priests – choking
them to death.
