Actually, it is not applied to Daniel's 70 weeks, because a WEEK in Hebrew is literally a SEVEN. Not "seven days" or "seven years," just "SEVEN". And the units of days or years are not even mentioned. We read English translations of the word WEEK and think it means seven days. But if you read Hebrew, you would literally read There are 70 sevens. It's like saying DOZENS without saying dozens of "what".
