1 In the 3rd year of Cyrus [derivation
uncertain] [] the king of Persia [The
Dragon, sacred years from 2020Sivan1?] there was a matter revealed to
Daniel [God is my Judge] [AOL], whose name was called Belteshazzar [prince
of Baal] [who was busy being a 1Kings18
prophet of Baal] and the word/saying/matter [was] true, and the
warfare/conflict [was] great. And he understood the matter, and he had understanding in the thing
seen [he finally understood the LW prophecies
for WW3 and the Great Tribulation of Matthew24 and the 2nd and 3rd fire signs
and perhaps some of Daniel7 and Daniel8].
2 In those days [the
days of the 3rd year or the days of the revealing of the matter? It is BOTH] I myself, Daniel,
had been [perfect tense] mourning
[during/for/though all of/through parts of] 3
sevens/weeks days [mourning
presumably as a result of the matter revealed to him in the literal meaning. And
indeed in the word symbolic meaning. 3 weeks of mourning traditionally runs from
Tammuz17
to Ab9 for the Jew (with only 29 days in Tammuz). It is a mourning for the loss of their form of worship
either in the tablets of Moses or the constant features in Solomon's and
Zerubbabel's temples. So here, in the greater meaning, this mourning is for the loss of a form of
worship. It is for the loss of Watchtower form of worship].
3 Dainty bread I did not eat, and no flesh or wine entered into my
mouth [he did not partake], and in no way did I grease/anoint myself [this
is not
a baptism since one cannot baptise oneself. 1NC reserves anoint themselves as
Kings by accepting the cup of the 1NC at the Passover] until [no
'the'] 3
sevens days were filled [no Passover emblems no Passover
lamb for Daniel who is the 1st Watchtower Passover 1NC reserves, during these 3 weeks or at any time before them actually].
EMBARGOED UNTIL THE TIME OF THE END.
