G. H. MURPHY: The expression in Dan. 9:25, “Unto the Messiah the Prince,” must extend to the baptism of Christ, not simply to his birth. Messiah signifies the Anointed. John 1:41, margin. When was Christ anointed? and for what was he anointed? When Christ commenced his ministry, he said, The time is fulfilled, which must refer to the sixty-nine weeks, the time given to extend to the Messiah. In Luke 4:18 we read, “The Spirit of the Lord God is upon me because he hath anointed me to preach the gospel to the poor.” This shows that his anointing was by the Spirit of God. And this anointing, according to Acts 10:38, Luke 3:22, was at his baptism.
