2 | The case for the 360 day prophetic year | Daniel | Calvary Pete | 181202 | ||
In Genesis we read that there were 150 days from the 17th day of the 2nd month until the 17th day of the 7th month (7:11, 24; 8:3-4). 150 days divided by 5 months equals 30 days per month. 30 days per month times 12 months per year equals a 360-day year. In Esther we read of Ahasuerus’ banquet which lasted 180 days (1:4). This indirectly supports a 30-day month, in which case the feast lasted a full 6 months. And while our Jewish fellow no doubt rejects the divine authority of the Book of Revelation, he must at least accept its value as an historical document written by a Judean in 1st Century AD. It ascribes 1260 days to a 42 month period, once again equaling 30 days per month (11:1-3). Also compare Daniel’s “time, times and half a time” in 7:25 and 12:7 (generally interpreted as a year, two years and half a year, or three and a half years – cf. Revelation 12:6, 14) with Revelation 13:5-8 which appears to ascribe 1260 days to the same period of time. Once again, 30 days per month. Both passages presumably speak of the second half of the final 7 years of the Seventy Sevens (known among some Christian groups as the “Great Tribulation” of Matthew 21:24) during which time the Antichrist will, according this view, put an end to the temporarily reestablished temple sacrifices (Daniel 7:25; 9:27; 12:11). Finally, compare Daniel 12:7 (three and a half years) with 12:11 (1260 days). | ||||||
