1,260 Days = 42 Months = 3 1/2 Years = Time of The Beast
Last Updated : December 15, 2010
If you are an avid student of prophecy, then you will know
that in Daniel and the Book of Revelation, we are told that
the Beast stops the Daily Sacrifice in the Temple, sets up
the Abomination of Desolation, blasphemes against God, and
persecutes the Saints of the Most High God for a period of
three and a half Jewish years. This period is mentioned in
these prophetic books as the following:
1. "forty-two months"
2. "1,260 days"
3. "time and times and the dividing of time" (3 1/2)
4. "time, times, and an half" (3 1/2)
The Prophet Daniel also mentions a 1,290 day period, as well
as a 1,335 day period. This latter time span is the same as
44.4 Jewish months at thirty days each, while the 1,290 days
equals exactly forty-three Jewish months. Following are the
specific verses where these time spans are mentioned in both
Daniel and Revelation. I have added a few words in brackets
in order to clarify what is being said:
"And he [the Beast] shall speak great words against the most
High, and shall wear out the saints of the most High, and
think to change times and laws: and they shall be given into
his hand until a time and times and the dividing of time."
Daniel 7:25, KJV
"And I heard the man clothed in linen, which was upon the
waters of the river, when he held up his right hand and his
left hand unto heaven, and sware by him that liveth for ever
that it shall be for a time, times, and an half; and when he
[the Beast] shall have accomplished to scatter the power of
the holy people, all these things shall be finished."
Daniel 12:7, KJV
"And from the time that the daily sacrifice shall be taken
away, and the abomination that maketh desolate set up, there
shall be a thousand two hundred and ninety days. Blessed is
he that waiteth, and cometh to the thousand three hundred
and five and thirty days."
Daniel 12:11-12, KJV
"But the court which is without the temple leave out, and
measure it not; for it is given unto the Gentiles: and the
holy city shall they tread under foot forty and two months.
And I will give power unto my two witnesses, and they shall
prophesy a thousand two hundred and threescore days, clothed
in sackcloth."
Revelation 11:2-3, KJV
"And the woman fled into the wilderness, where she hath a
place prepared of God, that they should feed her there a
thousand two hundred and threescore days."
Revelation 12:6, KJV
"And there was given unto him [the Beast] a mouth speaking
great things and blasphemies; and power was given unto him
to continue forty and two months. And he opened his mouth in
blasphemy against God, to blaspheme his name, and his
tabernacle, and them that dwell in heaven. And it was given
unto him to make war with the saints, and to overcome them:
and power was given him over all kindreds, and tongues, and
nations."
Revelation 13:5-7, KJV
