I am having difficulties finding a pictorial of the timeline of the 2300 days of Daniel 8:14  If anyone out there has, or knows of one, if you could post it here, I would be grateful. It will help me put together part three of the current series on God's Justice and Judgement. It needs to be dated from B.C. 457 to A.D. 1844. Thanks :)

The Book of Daniel, written in Hebrew and Aramaic, is a book in both the Hebrew Bible (Tanakh) and the Christian Old Testament. The book is set during the Babylonian Captivity, a period when Jews were deported and exiled to Babylon. The book revolves around the figure of Daniel, an Israelite who becomes an adviser to Nebuchadnezzar, the ruler of Babylon from 605 BC - 562 BC.

The book has two distinct parts: a series of six narratives (chapters one to six) and four apocalyptic visions (chapters seven to twelve). The narratives take the form of court stories which focus on tests of religious fidelity involving Daniel and his friends (chapters one, three and six), and Daniel's interpretation of royal dreams and visions (chapters two, four and five). In the second part of the book, Daniel recounts his reception of dreams, visions and angelic interpretations in the first person.

The dating and authorship of Daniel has been a matter of great debate among Jews and Christians. The traditional view holds that the work was written by a prophet named Daniel who lived during the sixth century BC, whereas most modern Biblical scholars maintain that the book was written or redacted in the mid-second century BC and that most of the predictions of the book refer to events that had already occurred. A third viewpoint places the final editorial work in the fourth century BC.  James this is what i came up with. there are many pictures and statues of Daniel but no real ones. Sorry

Hi Thomas, thanks for the information. I've done quite a bit of research, and I'm failing to find a pictorial of the timeline. I have all the details I need to place in there, but a pictorial helps one to understand the prophecy as depicted in Daniel. The timeline actually began in 457 B.C. when the decree was given to restore and rebuild Jerusalem, and ends in 1844 A.D. when Christ went into the most holy apartment of the heavenly sanctuary to begin the investigative judgement. Again, I appreciate your input my friend!

This may also be of assistance James.

2300 days

457 BC The decree to rebuild Jerusalem, spoken of by the angel to Daniel, was given in 457 B.C. (see Daniel 9:25; Ezra 7:11, 12. Thus, the starting date for the 2300-day prophecy is fixed. A day equals a year in Bible prophecy (see Ezekiel 4:6; Numbers 14:34; Mark 1:15; Matthew 18:21, 22; Luke 13:1-7). The 2300 days of Daniel 8:14 are equal to 2300 literal years.

408 BC The rebuilding of Jerusalem was completed by 408 B.C., built "even in troublous times" (Daniel 9:25). Just as Daniel's prophecy stated, the Jews labored against much opposition to restore their beloved city (see Nehemiah chapters 4- 7).

27 AD The Saviour was baptized in 27 A.D., exactly 483 years after the commandment to restore Jerusalem. Messiah in Hebrew and Christ in Greek are the same as anointed in the English. The Messiah was anointed for His work as our Savior by the Holy Spirit at His baptism (see Matthew 3:16; Luke 3:21-23; Acts 10:38).

31 AD In the middle of the seventieth week, The Messiah brought an end to the sacrificial service by dying for the salvation of the world (see Daniel 9:26, 27). The Saviour spoke of His sacrificial death as occurring at a set or fixed time, indicating that He would die at the time foretold in Bible prophecy (see Matthew 26:18; Luke 12:56; 21:8; Romans 5:6; 1 Timothy 2:6; Galatians 4:4).

34 AD The stoning of Stephen, the first Christian martyr, marked the close of Israel's seventyweek (490 year) probation (see Daniel 9:24; Acts 7:54-60). After the stoning of Stephen the gospel was taken to the gentiles, and the Christian church was born. Judaism as a nation gives way to spiritual Israel, the church (see Romans 2:28, 29; Galatians 3:26-29).

508 AD The papal church gains ecclesiastical authority and usurps the priestly ministry of Messiah by setting itself up in a mediatory position between God and the people (see Daniel 8:9- 11; 1 Timothy 2:5, 6; Hebrews 4:15, 16; 7:24, 25; 8:1-5; 2 Thessalonians 2:1-4; Mark 2:7). The darkness would begin to break after 1335 years, in 1843, as the truth of the sanctuary would begin to emerge through a worldwide Bible study revival (see Daniel 12:11-13; Revelation 10).

538 AD The papal church gains civil-political power and begins to persecute the saints of God (see Daniel 7:21, 25; 12:7; Revelation 12:6, 14; 13:5, 7). The political reign of the church would last for 1260 years, from 538 A.D. to 1798.

1798 AD The papal church loses its civil-political power over the masses, receiving the "deadly wound" foretold in prophecy (see Daniel 11:40; Revelation 13:3). The long, dark reign of papal authority was finally broken as Napoleon's general, Berthier, marched into Rome and took the pope captive. 1798 marks the beginning of "the time of the end" (see Daniel 12:4, 9).

1844 AD The glorious truth of Messiah's high priestly mediation in the heavenly sanctuary begins to be restored to the people through the study of Daniel's prophecies (see Daniel 8:14; 12:4). The study of Daniel's prophecies would be followed by a bitter disappointment, which in turn would be followed by a restoration of Biblical truth concerning the sanctuary and the mediation of the Messiah as our Savior (see Revelation chapters 10, 11).

It all comes back to a matter what we believe and what different churchs teach, if at all on subjects such as this one.

Keith.
