a year 

A Julian Calendar – 

A beginning in 44 BC.  622 in the Gregorian calendar, which began in 1582, was the beginning of the Islamic calendar.  666 in the Julian calendar marked the start of Islam.  A number in Daniel 9:2 refers to the number of years.  That is what Daniel understood by books.  A calendar conversion requires a calculation.

A Him Or An It – 

A translation problem.  Can you find the beast if you are looking for a “him” instead of an “it”?  In Revelation 13:1: 20 have “his horns”, 20 have “its horns”, 15 have “It had ten horns” .  We need Daniel 7:7 to clear this up.  “It had ten horns” is a clear winner.  You need to look for an “it” and not a “him” to find the beast.  It makes a difference.

A Fulfillment of Prophecy – 

A connection with numbers that can be trusted.  Your interpretation, not so much.  Translators can’t be trusted but somehow they get the numbers right.  If you have an ear, listen to what numbers and history can tell you.  It is the only way the fulfillment of prophecy can be confirmed.  Anything else is just someone’s interpretation.

A Year – 

A date, a beginning, a start, a mark.  Nearly every product sold today has a date marking its beginning.  The word “number” in Daniel refers to years.  Historians are good at ignoring what may have happened in the year 666 but we do know Islam was getting ready to attack Constantinople about that time.
