    7. Daniel 8:14 Points to October 22, 1844

    How can October 22, 1844, be found in Daniel 8:14?QSEW 10.4

    A detailed answer is given in The Seventh-day Adventist Bible Commentary. Basic to the Adventist interpretation are the following five points:QSEW 10.5

    (1) Both the 2300 days of Daniel 8 and the seventy weeks of Daniel 9 are to be explained on the year-day principle (that is, one prophetic day equals one calendar year).QSEW 10.6

    (2) The seventy weeks form the first part of the 2300-day prophecy, and thus both have the same starting point.QSEW 10.7

    (3) The “commandment to restore and to build Jerusalem,” which begins the two time periods, went forth with the decree of Artaxerxes in 457 BC.QSEW 11.1

    (4) When these time periods are begun at 457 BC we arrive at 27 AD for Christ’s baptism, 31 AD for His crucifixion, and 1844 for the cleansing of the sanctuary.QSEW 11.2

    (5) The cleansing of the sanctuary in 1844 commenced on the day in that year when the Jewish Day of Atonement occurred, which was October 22.QSEW 11.3
