Daniel 9:24 - The first of the six purposes of Daniel's 70 Weeks is "....to finish transgressions." In effect, God will use The Tribulation to bring final closure to the rebellion the Jews have always had against the divine authority of their Messiah. In Romans, Paul clarifies that the Jews' unbelief is divinely-ordained; it does not violate God's commitment, character, communications, or conditions in any way.
