Adventistische Schriften über: "Prophetic Interpretation in Daniel (1844 and the daily sacrifice)"

The Adventist prophetic interpretation in the context of 1844 is based on the conviction that prophetic time periods in Daniel and Revelation are to be understood according to the year‑day principle. Contrary to critical views that see these periods as short, literal intervals during the time of Antiochus Epiphanes, the writings indicate that the \"many days\" extend into the \"last time.\" This interpretation links historical events inseparably with the approaching great day of God and the end of the prophetic periods.

Prophetic Time Measures and Their Fulfillment

»The problem of the meaning of a prophetic day, month, and time is now solved, insofar as these periods relate to the events of the time; ... it suffices for my purpose to demonstrate that both Daniel and the Revelator use a day for a year and that their prophetic periods are definite and not indefinite.«

»Certainly these terms exclude the notion, which a few commentators favor so much, that Daniel's prophecies extend only a little beyond the times of Antiochus Epiphanes ... That we are now in the \"last days\" of Daniel's \"people\" is much more reasonable to assume.«

»We now devote ourselves to his third and final hint, namely: that the times mentioned to the prophet Daniel and in Revelation are not to be understood such that each day represents a year; rather each day represents only literal time ... we attempted in a few words, through the scriptures themselves, to show that the usual interpretation ... is the correct interpretation.«
