A Number In Daniel
A number of years. A date? A common mark on products sold today. So what happened in the year 666? Nothing. Historians avoid that year but history does show Islam getting ready to attack Constantinople the capital of an empire where Christians reigned with Christ for a thousand years.
A Connection With History
A prophecy fulfilled in history connected with numbers. Bible translations, versions, and interpretations vary considerably but somehow agree on numbers and colors so they can be reliably used to connect prophecy with history. Historians don’t always agree on numbers but they do get close enough.
A Prophecy Fulfilled
A number to connect them. Numbers can be trusted. Your interpretation, not so much. There are way too many different translations of the bible but they all seem to agree on the numbers. Only history can confirm the fulfillment of prophecy and only numbers can reliably connect history to prophecy.

A Dynasty
A number seven connecting history with the fulfillment of prophecy. Historians have identified the seven dynasties of the Roman Empire. This gives us the beast that was, and is not, and yet is when you combine it with the ten dynasties of Islam. This is in addition to the numbers 1000 and 666 that have already been shown to fit.

A Historian
A calculation. Go ahead, pick an Islamic calendar converter and put 46 in it. You get 666. 46 is the number Gibbon used. 46 years after the Hijri year Constantinople was attacked. A date is a mark. Gibbon notes the problems with dates. Also noted is the Greek fire used to defeat the attackers.

A Date
A clue from Daniel 9:2 where number refers to years. History shows Islam getting ready to attack Constantinople in the year 666. Based on 44 BC, 666 in the Julian calendar is 622 in the Gregorian calendar (started in 1582) and the beginning of the Islamic calendar. Gibbon also had a problem with dates.

A Thousand Years
A place to start. There is only one thousand year empire and it was a Christian one where they reigned with Christ. The Byzantine Empire. This is where you start. Will it fit with the other numbers: 666, ten horns, seven heads, and five are fallen???? The “ten horns” connect Daniel and the word number.

A Greek Fire
A significant passage in the Apocalypse. In defense of Constantinople they used Greek Fire on the Sea of Marmara which was like a sheet of glass and the year was 666. A sea of glass mingled with fire: and them that had gotten the victory over the beast, and over his image, and over his mark, and over the number of his name. Islam.

A Calendar
A date, a mark, a beginning. A common year 44 BC. The Julian calendar preceded the Gregorian calendar which didn’t start until 1582. The Islamic calendar started in 622 CE and that would be 666 of the Julian calendar which was in effect at that time. The Hegira marks the beginning of Islam.
