If you mean "the abomination of desolation" then his phrase is found in the book of Daniel (11:31 and 12:11) and was also used by Jesus in the gospels (Matt 24:15 and Mark 13:14).
In Daniel 11:31 it refers to the sacrifice of a pig, by Antiochus Epiphanes, in the temple in Jerusalem in 168 BC. The Jews referred to this act as "the abomination that caused desolation" since it polluted their altar and made sacrifices to God on it impossible. Antiochus further ordered his Jewish subjects to celebrate his subsequent birthdays by offering a pig to Zeus on this altar.
Jesus Christ indicated that another similar atrocity would befall the Jews in the future (Matt. 24:15; Mark 13:14). Daniel 12:11 refers to this future atrocity. So Antiochus' actions were a preview of similar atrocities that are yet to befall the Jews.
The Book of Revelation predicts the coming of a "beast" who will behave as Antiochus did, only on a larger scale (Rev. 13).
The future 'man of sin' and his activities will be the ultimate blasphemous persecution of Israel and the desecration of their temple.
