The Book of Daniel foreshadows the coming of the anointed one , Joshua , the first post-Exilic High Priest .
The 70 weeks/490 years are subdivided , with seven `` weeks '' from the `` going forth of the word to rebuild and restore Jerusalem '' to the coming of an `` anointed one '' , while the final `` week '' is marked by the violent death of another `` anointed one '' , probably the High Priest Onias III ( ousted to make way for Jason and murdered in 171 BC ) , and the profanation of the Temple .
