The Testaments of the Twelve Patriarchs 32
Levi 16
The book of Enoch foretells seventy weeks of going astray that will profane the priesthood and pollute the sacrifices.
1nd now I have learnt in the book of Enoch that for seventy weeks will ye go astray, and will profane the priesthood, and pollute the sacrifices, and corrupt the law, and set at nought the words of the prophets.
2 In perverseness ye will persecute righteous men, and hate the godly; the words of the faithful will ye abhor, and the man who reneweth the law in the power of the Most High will ye call a deceiver; and at last, as ye suppose, ye will slay Him, not understanding His resurrection, wickedly taking upon your own heads the innocent blood.
3 Because of Him shall your holy places be desolate, polluted even to the ground, and ye shall have no place that is clean; but ye shall be among the Gentiles a curse and a dispersion, until He shall again look upon you, and in pity shall take you to Himself through faith and water.

During that time the people will corrupt the law and set at nought the words of the prophets.
They will call a deceiver the man who reneweth the law in the power of the Most High.
As they suppose they will slay Him, not understanding His resurrection, and take innocent blood on their heads.
Holy places will lie desolate and polluted to the ground until He gathers them through faith and water.
