you’ll understand where I’m coming from

I'm sorry, but where would that be? Unlike RJR_fan, neither your handle nor your rhetoric affords us obvious clues.

Throughout this thread.

My point is that the linked article stresses the need for a literal interpretation of scripture to understand that Dan 9:26 has been fulfilled. The author then proceeded to explain in detail why without once addressing Jerusalem experiencing a flood as described in the verse (Dan 9:26).

The thread creator (TaraP) then interpreted flood to mean an illuminating light event. When pressed on the subject, the thread creator then interpreted flood as meaning a "flood of knowledge".

Such interpretations may be ok but they are not what one would call literal interpretations and the author stated a literal interpretation was required.

The fatal flaw in this illuminating/knowledge literal interpretation of the word flood is that Zech 14:4-8 says there will be no light and that waters will flow from the mount of Olives to the east and west.

Therefore, in order to not have Dan 9:26 not contradict Zech 14:4-8, a literal interpretation of the word flood in Dan 9:26 should mean a water event and Dan 9:26 can not have been fulfilled as the author claims.
