And so what started as a cultural love for everything Greek turned into a godless, blasphemous anarchy in the heart of this wicked man (Antiochus). 40,000 Jews die in this time of blood letting over just a few day period. 40,000 more are taken slaves and carted away. It's a time of tremendous blackness. But, even there you see God's perfect wisdom. It was measured out. And in the middle of that, the abomination of desolation happens about the half way point of that 2,300 (days). So that you could say from the abomination of desolation in 168 BC until the purification of the Temple in 165 BC there are 2,300 evening and morning sacrifices (stopped) or 1,150 days... In God's wisdom, He's guiding everything, it's all happening according to plan.
... What is the Lord's purpose in this? Why does He allow this to happen? What's his purpose?
