If it refers to the idolatrous image which the Seleucids (Syrian-Greeks) placed in the Jewish Temple, then the answer is 165 BCE, when the Maccabees rededicated the Temple to God. Though some passages in Daniel are explained as prophesying the wars of the Maccabees, the one which your Question is quoting (Daniel 12:11) is interpreted by Jewish commentaries as referring to the Second Destruction (in 68 CE), when the Romans razed the Temple and put their idols in its place. By that time, the Maccabees were no longer extant.

When did Daniel's first Abomination that causes desolation take place and what was it?

The Syrian ruler, Antiochus IV Epiphanes (175-164 BCE) punished Jewish attempts at resistance by attacking Jerusalem, slaughtering the population, plundering the Temple and erecting a statue to Zeus on the Temple altar of burnt offering. This was what the author of Daniel referred to as "the abomination of desolation". It began in 169 BCE and continued in 167 BCE.This persecution constituted the context of the Book of Daniel, which used descriptions of the Babylonian kings of the 6th century BCE to decry the Syrian rulers of the second century BCE.

Was Vatican 2 the abomination of desolation Mt2415?

The phrase "abomination of desolation" refers to Matthew 24:15 (KJV): "So when you see standing in the holy place 'the abomination that causes desolation,' spoken of through the prophet Daniel-let the reader understand." This is referring to Daniel 9:27, "He will confirm a covenant with many for one 'seven.' In the middle of the 'seven' he will put an end to sacrifice and offering. And on a wing [of the temple] he will set up an abomination that causes desolation, until the end that is decreed is poured out on him." In 167 B.C. a Greek ruler by the name of Antiochus Epiphanies set up an altar to Zeus over the altar of burnt offerings in the Jewish temple in Jerusalem. He also sacrificed a pig on the altar in the Temple in Jerusalem. This event is known as "The Abomination Of Desolation". Greek Ruler,Antiochus Epiphanies setting up of an altar to Zeus over the altar of burnt offerings in the Jewish temple in Jerusalem was merely a shadow of what was to come in the future. This shadow of things to come formula can even be seen within the Definition of Antiochus Epiphanies last name "Epiphany".. An epiphany (from the ancient Greek "ἐπιφάνεια", epiphaneia, "manifestation, striking appearance") is the sudden realization or comprehension of the (larger) essence or meaning of something. This is also further proof that We are all named by God before we are even in the womb. Using The Truth Within Words formula one can link these historical facts and biblical accounts to those who are behind this future event..The Truth Within Words formula will allow you to see who sets up The Abomination That Causes Desolation,the image it will be in,and much more... I use a secret teaching of Jesus that the world is not yet aware of.The bible teaches that Jesus is the word and the truth is inside of Him.I use this same formula to discover truths which might be hidden within our own words that we use today (in english,greek alphabet). The Prophet Daniel talks of a great ruler who will send his army to invade a land and set up this abomination that causes desolation.Daniel Chapter11 Verse 31-32 Daniel states "His armed forces will rise up to desecrate the temple fortress and abolish the daily sacrifice.Then they will set up the abomination that causes desolation.With flattery he will corrupt those who have violated the covenant,but the people who know their God will firmly resist him".. The first thing one sees in this passage is "armed forces will rise up to desecrate the temple fortress".I figured the name of this army might be located within the words "The Abomination That Causes Desolation"..I unscrambled the words and found "The United States Coalition"(with only 10 letters left over that i could not unscramble at the time).. coincidence?I dont see how such a coincidence could be possible if i could do it more than once or twice. Just write down the words "The Abomination That Causes Desolation" and circle out the letters needed to make the words "The United States Coalition".. (THE) (A)B(O)M(I)(N)A(T)(I)(O)(N) (T)H(A)(T) (C)A(U)S(E)(S) (D)(E)(S)O(L)A(T)(I)ON = THE UNITED STATES COALITION
