Has the 70th Week Already Passed?

Q

I read your writings with great eagerness. This question come as a result of a discussion I’ve had in a forum.
Has the 70th week occurred?

I’ve been taught for many years NO it has not. But this new mathematical equation from a pyramidologist is claimed to prove that it has. That history shows the 70 weeks started in 485 BC and Christ crucified ended it. They threw out a myriad of verses from Daniel 9:25-27, Luke, and Romans to prove the theory.

This is what comes from using extra-biblical sources to interpret the bible. There are several points I could illustrate here, but the simplest and clearest one comes from Daniel 9:26-27. This tells us that after the 69th week the Messiah will be cut off, which means executed, leaving one week unfulfilled. That verse alone seems to destroy the theory that all 70 weeks had been fulfilled at the time of the crucifixion.
