Daniel

The previous post is obviously related to Daniel 9. I recommend you read the whole chapter, and compare it to this and this. As I write this post we are 1.5 years into the first half week, and 1335 days will bring us to Rosh HaShana 5776. After the first half week ends, the second half "week" and third half "week" still await. Half a Shmita period, a Shmita period and two Shmita periods. Another instance of time, times, and a half. The principle is 1335/1290 = 14.5/14. The wise will understand.
