9:1 - Darius
9:27 - Messiah cut off
10:1 - Cyrus
The Messiah in Daniel was cut off between the reigns of Darius & Cyrus, however anyone who studied Persian history, should note that
Darius never preceded Cyrus and Daniel fails to mention Cambyses, Bardiya and Nebonidus.
Cyrus the Great
Cambyses II
Bardiya
Darius I
This is because Alexander was titled 'Lord of Asia' or Κύριος της Ασίας , Κύριος (כורש) , the title in Daniel 9:1 , 'seed of the medes'
only fits Darius III, process of elimination.
Between the reigns of Darius III & Alex, Azemilcus, the last king of Tyre was cut off, more-so since the Bible overly emphases the fall of Tyre,
