‏ Daniel 9:24

v. 24: Gabriel explains that “seventy weeks” (which are understood as seventy groups of seven years, or 490 years) are determined for the people of Israel and Jerusalem. During this time, God will finish the work of dealing with sin, bringing in everlasting righteousness, and fulfilling prophecy. The “Most Holy” will be anointed, pointing to the coming of the Messiah.
