七十個七期(英語:Seventy Weeks)的異象記載在《希伯來聖經》的《但以理書》第9章第24-27節(第24節:「為你本國之民和你聖城,已經定了七十個七。要止住罪過,除淨罪惡,贖盡罪孽,引進(或作彰顯)永義,封住異象和預言,並膏至聖者(者或作至聖所)。」),是一個對猶太人和基督徒都相當重要的聖經預言。
另外,《馬太福音》第18章記載,當彼得進前來問耶穌「我弟兄得罪我,我當饒恕他幾次呢?到七次可以嗎?」時,「耶穌說,我對你說,不是到七次,乃是到七十個七次(英語:seventy-seven times)」(《馬太福音》第18章第22節);接著,耶穌做了一個刻薄寡恩不憐恤人的惡僕逼債的比喻」 (《馬太福音》第18章第23-35節)。
內容
大利烏元年,以色列先知但以理在被擄之地巴比倫,從《希伯來聖經·耶利米書》中得知YHWH臨到先知耶利米的預言,知道耶路撒冷荒涼的年數,七十年為滿,便懇切禁食禱告。於是天使加百列讓他看見七十個七的異象:「「為你本國之民和你聖城,已經定了七十個七日。要止住罪過,除淨罪惡,贖盡罪孽,引進永義,封住異象和預言,並膏那至 聖的。你當知道,當明白,從出令重新建造耶路撒冷,直到有 彌賽亞 君王的時候,必有七個七日和六十二個七日。正在艱難的時候,耶路撒冷城連街帶城牆都必重新建造。過了六十二個七日,那 彌賽亞必被剪除,卻非為自己;必有一王的民來毀滅這城和聖所,至終必如洪水沖沒。必有爭戰,一直到底,荒涼的事已經定了。七日之內,他必與許多人堅定盟約;七日之間,他必使祭祀與供獻止息,又行毀壞遍佈可憎的,直到完滿,以後那結局既定的就被傾在荒涼之上。」[1] kjv 中譯
