• Sixty-two weeks, dating from the restoration of Jerusalem, ran on till Christ; and that, “after” the termination of this period, He, being rejected, was cut off, and had nothing; for the kingdom and its glory were as a consequence postponed. (“Daniel 9” by E. Dennett)
• It does not say that a prince shall come and destroy the city and the sanctuary, but that the people of the prince that shall come shall do so. In other words, “the prince that shall come” applies to the future, and is indeed, as will be seen in the next verse, the imperial head of the revived Roman empire in the last days. The “people” are identified with him because they are Romans, of the same kingdom that is yet to reappear, and of which this prince will be the leader and the chief. What we have then, in this passage, is the destruction of Jerusalem by the Romans after the death of Christ as God’s judgment upon the Jews for their rejection and crucifixion of their Messiah. (“Daniel 9” by E. Dennett)
• Within one week (seven years) when Christ came, the seventy weeks spoken of by Gabriel had run their course; and had the Jews but received Jesus of Nazareth as their promised Messiah, He would have at once established His kingdom, and brought in all the blessings spoken of in verse 24; but they knew not the time of their visitation. As a consequence the course of the seventy weeks has been interrupted, and God does not count time while His ancient people on earth are out of their inheritance, and scattered over the globe. (“Daniel 9” by E. Dennett)
