Thank you Warped Warriors,
I was not aware of Iraneus and Hippolytus interpretation.
Perhaps Darby only promoted this view, not the originator.
With your research, might you be able to find those who interpreted contrary to those two?
Other Anti-Nicene Fathers on Daniel 9:27 -
Clement of Alexandria - The Stromata (Book I, Ch. 25) = Christ
"That the temple accordingly was built in seven weeks, is evident; for it is written in Esdras. And thus Christ became King of the Jews, reigning in Jerusalem in the fulfilment of the seven weeks. And in the sixty and two weeks the whole of Judæa was quiet, and without wars. And Christ our Lord, “the Holy of Holies,” having come and fulfilled the vision and the prophecy, was anointed in His flesh by the Holy Spirit of His Father. In those “sixty and two weeks,” as the prophet said, and
“in the one week,” was He Lord. The half of the week Nero held sway, and in the holy city Jerusalem placed the abomination; and in the half of the week he was taken away, and Otho, and Galba, and Vitellius." - newadvent.org/fathers/02101.htm
Tertullian - An Answer to the Jews (Chapter 8) = Christ
"Accordingly the times must be inquired into of the predicted and future nativity of the Christ, and of His passion, and of the extermination of the city of Jerusalem, that is, its devastation. For Daniel says, that “both
the holy city and the holy place are exterminated together with the coming Leader, and that the pinnacle is destroyed unto ruin.” And so the times of the
coming Christ, the Leader, Isaiah 55:4 must be inquired into, which we shall trace in Daniel; and, after computing them, shall prove Him to be come, even on the ground of the times prescribed, and of competent signs and operations of His. Which matters we prove, again,
on the ground of the consequences which were ever announced as to follow His advent; in order that we may believe all to have been as well fulfilled as foreseen... In such wise, therefore, did Daniel predict concerning Him, as to show both when and in what time He was to set the nations free;
and how, after the passion of the Christ, that city had to be exterminated... Observe we, therefore, the limit—how, in truth, he predicts that there are to be lxx hebdomads, within which if they receive Him, “it shall be built into height and entrenchment, and the times shall be renewed.”
But God, foreseeing what was to be— that they will not merely not receive Him, but will both persecute and deliver Him to death— both recapitulated, and said, that in lx and ii and an half of an hebdomad He is born, and an holy one of holy ones is anointed; but that when vii hebdomads and an half were fulfilling, He had to suffer, and the holy city had to be exterminated after one and an half hebdomad— whereby namely, the seven and an half hebdomads have been completed. For he says thus: “
And the city and the holy place to be exterminated together with the leader who is to come; and they shall be cut short as in a deluge; and he shall destroy the pinnacle unto ruin.” Whence, therefore, do we show that
the Christ came within the lxii and an half hebdomads?" - newadvent.org/fathers/0308.htm
Origen - Origen Against Celsus (Book VI ch. 46) = Antichrist
"To explain each particular here referred to does not belong to our present purpose.
The prophecy also regarding Antichrist is stated in the book of Daniel, and is fitted to make an intelligent and candid reader admire the words as truly divine and prophetic; for in them are mentioned the things relating to
the coming kingdom, beginning with the times of Daniel,
and continuing to the destruction of the world. And any one who chooses may read it. Observe, however, whether
the prophecy regarding Antichrist be not as follows: “And at the latter time of their kingdom, when their sins are coming to the full, there shall arise a king, bold in countenance, and understanding riddles. And his power shall be great, and he shall destroy wonderfully, and prosper, and practise; and shall destroy mighty men, and the holy people. And the yoke of his chain shall prosper: there is craft in his hand, and he shall magnify himself in his heart, and by craft shall destroy many; and he shall stand up for the destruction of many, and shall crush them as eggs in his hand.” What is stated by Paul in the words quoted from him, where he says, “so that he sits in the temple of God, showing himself that he is God,” is in Daniel referred to in the following fashion: “
And on the temple shall be the abomination of desolations, and at the end of the time an end shall be put to the desolation.” So many, out of a greater number of passages, have I thought it right to adduce, that the hearer may understand in some slight degree the meaning of holy Scripture, when it gives us information concerning the devil and Antichrist;" - newadvent.org/fathers/04166.htm
Victorinus - Commentary on the Apocalypse (From the Thirteenth chapter.) = Antichrist
"13. “And he shall make fire come down from heaven in the sight of men.” Yes (as I also have said), in the sight of men. Magicians do these things, by the aid of the apostate angels, even to this day. He shall cause also that
a golden image of Antichrist shall be placed in the temple at Jerusalem,
and that the apostate angel should enter, and thence utter voices and oracles. Moreover, he himself shall contrive that his servants and children should receive as a mark on their foreheads, or on their right hands, the number of his name, lest any one should buy or sell them. Daniel had previously predicted his contempt and provocation of God. “And he shall place,” says he, “his temple within Samaria, upon the illustrious and holy mountain that is at Jerusalem, an image such as Nebuchadnezzar had made.” Daniel 11:45 Thence here he places, and by and by here he renews,
that of which the Lord, admonishing His churches concerning the last times and their dangers, says: “But when you shall see the contempt which is spoken of by Daniel the prophet standing in the holy place, let him who reads understand.” Matthew 24:15; Daniel 9:27 It is called a contempt when God is provoked, because idols are worshipped instead of God, or when the dogma of heretics is introduced in the churches. But it is a turning away because steadfast men, seduced by false signs and portents, are turned away from their salvation. " - newadvent.org/fathers/0712.htm
Clement of Rome - Recognitions (Chapter LXIV.—Temple to Be Destroyed.) [SPURIOUS] = Antichrist
"For we,’ said I, ‘have ascertained beyond doubt that God is much rather displeased with the sacrifices which you offer, the time of sacrifices having now passed away; and because ye will not acknowledge that the time for offering victims is now past, therefore the temple shall be destroyed, and
the abomination of desolation (592)- Dan. ix. 27; Matt. xxiv. 15. shall stand in the holy place; and then the Gospel shall be preached to the Gentiles for a testimony against you, that your unbelief may be judged by their faith." - ccel.org/ccel/schaff/anf08.vi.iii.iii.lxiv.html
Add these together with Irenaeus and Hippolytus for the Anti-Nicene Fathers interpretation of Daniel 9:27, and you have:
Christ = 2
Antichrist = 5
