Daniel 2300 days Daniel 8:13 Then I heard one saint speaking, and another saint said unto that certain saint which spake, How long shall be the vision concerning the daily sacrifice, and the transgression of desolation, to give both the sanctuary and the host to be trodden under foot? 14 And he said unto me, Unto two thousand and three hundred days; then shall the sanctuary be cleansed. Many Christians see a single event in verse 13, represented by " concerning the daily sacrifice, and the transgression of desolation, to give both the sanctuary and the host to be trodden under foot?" But I see two events. Verse 13 speaks of the fate of the daily sacrifice after it is restored and re-instituted by the Jews. The first event is "the daily sacrifice". It speaks of day 1 when this daily sacrifice is restored by the Jews at some point of tribulation.The second event is the fate of this daily sacrifice represented by "the transgression of desolation, to give both the sanctuary and the host to be trodden under foot" This event shall take place in mid trib when AC breaks the covenant and changes the times and law of Israel ( Daniel 7:25). The time is their feast and the law is their Torah. Their sanctuary shall also be trodden under foot by gentiles. If we take away the second event " the transgression of desolation, to give both the sanctuary and the host to be trodden under foot" from verse 13, we have this; "How long shall be the vision concerning the daily sacrifice? And he said unto me, Unto two thousand and three hundred days; then shall the sanctuary be cleansed." Daniel was told the daily sacrifice can only lasts 2300 days. After these period, sanctuary be cleansed and Holy can be restored. It simply means from the first day the daily sacrifice is restored and re-instituted by the Jews, the fate of this daily sacrifice can only last 2300 days. But during these 2300 days, this daily sacrifice shall be interrupted by "the transgression of desolation, to give both the sanctuary and the host to be trodden under foot". This transgression of desolation is inserted to foretell the tragic fate of this daily sacrifice. Having said this, to calculate which day shall the daily sacrifice be restored by the Jews based on my timeline, here's the calculation. From my previous thread, abomination ends on April 8 2026 with AC being thrown into the lake of fire. Subtract 2300 days from April 8 2026, we come to December 21 2019. December 21 falls on the eve of Hanukkah. There is a special meaning for the Jews to restore their sacrifice on Hanukkah. First, they have witnessed Gog/Magog in summer and God's miraculous protection on them. Second, this should remind them how God delivered them during Maccabean revolt and how their ancestors rededicated their feast on the ancient Hanukkah. These two shall give them strong reason to rededicate the old testament sacrifice on Hanukkah this year, if rapture does take place in spring. A note here. Even though they don't have a temple yet to perform the sacrifice, they can build a tent outside Temple Mount to carry out the service.
