More good prophecy insights here from Chris White. Everything does point to a very Jewish Messiah (Antichrist) confirming a covenant and re-establishing the daily sacrifices of the Old Covenant.

The Seven-Year Covenant
Then he shall confirm a covenant with many for one week; But in the middle of the week He shall bring an end to sacrifice and offering. (Daniel 9:27a)
Here in the last verse of Daniel chapter 9, we have a reference to the Antichrist making some kind of covenant with many people. This verse gives weight to the thesis that the Antichrist will claim to be the Jewish Messiah. Even until very recently, I've assumed that this verse was referring to a "seven-year peace agreement." It has become so common for people to refer to this verse as a peace treaty of some sort that I confess I sort of took it for granted.
However, there is no reason to think this covenant is speaking of a peace treaty. In all the Bible versions I have available to me though Bible software and the Internet (a considerable number), the word "peace" is not mentioned or even implied. In addition, I suggest that whatever this covenant is that the Antichrist makes must be a covenant that was already in place, based on the underlying Hebrew text.
I believe this verse is referring to the Antichrist trying to fulfill the modern Jewish expectations of a "new covenant" that the Messiah will make in the last days. This concept is detailed in many places in the Old Testament, but a notable one is in Jeremiah 31:31, which states: "Behold, the days are coming, says the LORD, when I will make a new covenant with the house of Israel and with the house of Judah."
Both Christians and Jews believe this verse is messianic, but their two views of this "new covenant" are vastly different. The Jews believe this means that when the Messiah comes, He will reconfirm the covenant they already had; that is, the Messiah will make it possible for them to once again abide by the laws given by Moses, especially regarding the daily sacrifices in the temple. The Jewish view of the phrase "new covenant" is no more than a renewed national commitment to abide by God's laws.






At the end of thirty-two months of study at a college (Latin: collegium, “the connection of associates”) or university (Latin: universitas, “the whole, aggregate”),
The great secret concerning the whole human race has been, at its quintessential base, required to be kept secret to all but those worthy.
Like a maze, the stories in myth over the many millennia have been intentionally obfuscated in order to hide the secrets from the vulgar. Often, the paths that lead to the discovery behind the meaning of the stories, characters, and ideas in myth often come to abrupt ends where the student must retrace his steps back to alternate paths in order to gain understanding. The paths of a maze mimic the method of exploration and discovery used in this book, and are consistent with the nature of the subjects covered. In the account of Theseus and the Minotaur, Theseus was given a ball of thread known as the “clue” that led him through the Labyrinth. This book will be the thread or clue through the maze, where each subject explored will add to the unraveling of confusion and lay out a path so that an escape to understanding is possible.
