The prophecy also told of his second coming. Here is the passage:

Seventy weeks are decreed about your people and your holy city, to finish the transgression, to put an end to sin, and to atone for iniquity, to bring in everlasting righteousness, to seal both vision and prophet, and to anoint a most holy place. Know therefore and understand that from the going out of the word to restore and build Jerusalem to the coming of an anointed one, a prince, there shall be seven weeks. Then for sixty-two weeks it shall be built again with squares and moat, but in a troubled time. And after the sixty-two weeks, an anointed one shall be cut off and shall have nothing. And the people of the prince who is to come shall destroy the city and the sanctuary. Its end shall come with a flood, and to the end there shall be war. Desolations are decreed. And he shall make a strong covenant with many for one week, and for half of the week he shall put an end to sacrifice and offering. And on the wing of abominations shall come one who makes desolate, until the decreed end is poured out on the desolator. (Dn 9:24-27)​

In this passage, Gabriel prophesies actual occurrences that attest to the Messiah coming not once but twice. The anointed one came after seven weeks, then again after sixty-two weeks, at which time he put an end to transgression and sin. He atoned for the iniquity of God’s people and bestowed on them an everlasting righteousness. Prophets and prophecies came to an end as he became the one through whom God would speak in the newly anointed most holy place, the paradise we call the church (or the kingdom). Jesus was cut off from his people to become shepherd of a new flock with whom he destroyed the old city and its sanctuary in a ruthless bloody war. Whatever we say about the timeframe in Daniel 9, the object of the prophecy is clear: the coming of Israel’s Messiah and the New Covenant with God.
