How do we know that the Messiah is central to the prophecies in Daniel?

Answered in 1 source

The prophecies in Daniel clearly assert the coming of the Messiah, who will bring reconciliation and everlasting righteousness.

Daniel’s prophecies, particularly in chapter 9 verses 24-27, explicitly reference the coming of the Messiah, highlighting His roles in ending transgression, making reconciliation for iniquity, and bringing in everlasting righteousness. The promise of the Messiah is central to understanding the narrative of the Book of Daniel, as it charts the divine plan of salvation where Christ's atoning sacrifice fulfills all sacrificial systems outlined in the Law. Furthermore, the descriptions of the Messiah denote His sacrificial role and His ultimate triumph over sin and death, reinforcing the notion that God’s redemptive grace is fully realized in Christ, the fulfillment of Old Testament prophecies.
