Abomination » The abomination that makes desolate
The people of Israel and Judah have made me furious because they are evil. The people, their kings and officials, their priests and prophets, and the Judeans and those who live in Jerusalem have turned their backs, not their faces to me.

God said to me: Son of man, look toward the north. So I looked toward the north. There in the entrance to the north gate beside the altar, I saw the idol that provokes jealousy and stirs up God's anger. He asked me: Son of man, do you see what the people of Israel are doing? The people of Israel are doing very disgusting things here, things that will force me to go far away from my holy place. But you will see even more disgusting things.

It magnified itself, even to the prince of the host. It took the continual burnt offering from him and the place of his sanctuary was thrown down. The host was given over to it together with the continual burnt offering through transgression. It cast down truth to the ground, and whatever it wanted to do and prospered. Then I heard a holy one speak and another holy one said to it: How long will the vision be concerning the continual burnt-offering and the transgression that makes desolate to give both the sanctuary and the host to be trampled under foot? He said to me: Two thousand and three hundred evenings and mornings. Then the sanctuary will be cleansed.

Then one will stand up in his place who will send an oppressor (tax collecter) to pass through the glory of the kingdom.

And after the alliance made with him he will work deceitfully. He will come up, and will become strong, with a small nation of people. In time of security he will come even upon the richest places of the province. He will do that which his fathers have not done, nor his fathers' fathers. He will scatter among them prey, and spoil, and substance. He will devise his devices against the strongholds, even for a time. He will stir up his power and his courage against the king of the south with a great army. The king of the south will war in battle with an exceeding great and mighty army, but he will not stand. This is because they will devise schemes against him. Those who eat of his rich foods will destroy him. His army will overflow and many will fall down slain. And as for both these kings, their hearts will be inclined to do bad things. They will speak lies at one table and nothing will succeed. The end will come at the time appointed.

At the time appointed he will invade the south again. But the outcome will not be the same as it was at the earlier time. For ships of Kittim will come against him. He will be grieved and will return. He will have indignation against the holy covenant and will do what he pleases. He will even return, and show favor to those who forsake the holy covenant. His armed forces will stand with him, and they will profane the sanctuary, even the fortress, and will take away the continual burnt offering. They will set up the abomination that makes desolate.

I heard the man clothed in linen, when he held up his right hand and his left hand to heaven, and swore by him that lives forever: It will be for three and one half years; and when they have made an end of breaking in pieces the power of the holy people, all these things will be finished. read more.

He took up our infirmities and carried our sorrows. We considered him stricken by God, smitten by him, and afflicted. But he was pierced for our transgressions! He was crushed for our iniquities!
