What answer was addressed to Daniel?
Answer
"And he said unto me, Unto two thousand and three hundred days; then shall the sanctuary be cleansed!'
Verse 14.
NOTE - In verse 13, R.V., the vision is dearly defined. It is "the vision concerning the continual
burnt offering [or continual mediation], and the transgression that makes desolate," which results in giving
both the sanctuary and the people of God to be trodden underfoot. The time when the vision was to have its
special application is stated in verse 17 to be "at the time of the end," or in the last days. This is additional
proof that this prophecy was to find its complete fulfillment in papal Rome as pagan Rome passed away
many centuries ago. The sanctuary and the twenty-three-hundred-day period here referred to are considered
at length in succeeding readings in this volume.
