Per Mary: " "Jerusalem will [continue to] be trampled on by the nations" whence the creative "[continue to]" embellishment to the text?

Why was Daniel speaking in mystery novel clues instead of just saying the important things as facts?
So that the wicked won't understand, of course! (Daniel 12:10)

That was great Mary I just looked it up and it is so totally amazing that they twist the Bible like they do.

Because they HAD NO NUMBERS! The letters of their alphabet did double-duty for numbers. Imagine if we had to do that in English! A=1, B=2, C=3 etc. Could you even balance your checkbook? (Can you anyway? :)

I will take a shot at an even simpler K.I.S.S. explanation of 1914:

1914 was figured using rather bad arithmetic originally.
Did you know that?
When Russell computed the year 1914 he got there by assuming the date of Jerusalem's destruction as 606 b.c.e.
Did you know that?
When it was pointed out that there is no year ZERO he changed the date of Jerusalem's destruction to 607 b.c.e.
Did you know that?
