20 Reasons Series: Day / Year Principle: #8

Reason #8:
"In the book of Daniel, the word ‘days’ can mean ‘years’.


*Daniel 1:5 refers to three years but in Daniel 1:18 the same period is described as ‘days’.

*The seven times of Daniel 4:25 are referred to as ‘days’ in Daniel 4:34. Daniel 5:11 speaks of the days of Nebuchadnezzar. These days were obviously years. Compare, Daniel 2:28, 44 where ‘latter days’ and ‘days of these kings’ means ‘years’. See also, Daniel 8:14, 26; 10:14; 12:13; 11:20; 11:33 in the light of Daniel 7:25; 12:7."
