One of the key events of the End Times is a coming peace treaty between Israel and her neighbors which the coming antichrist will broker.
We read about this in Daniel 9:27, "And he, [the antichrist, referred to in the previous verse as 'the prince that shall come'] shall confirm the covenant with many for one week [one set of seven years] and in the midst of the week he shall cause the sacrifice and the oblation to cease, and for the overspreading of abominations he shall make it desolate..."
There's a lot to unpack in this verse:
The antichrist is going to make a covenant or treaty with the many in Israel for a seven-year period of time.
In the middle of that seven years, he's going to put an end to sacrifice and offerings, which can only happen in a rebuilt temple.
At the temple, he'll set up an "abomination that causes desolation." The antichrist will enter the temple, declaring that he is God, and will set up an image in the temple that people must worship in order to buy or sell (see Revelation 13). READ MORE
