    11. The Year-Day Principle in History

    How long has the year-day principle been used by Bible expositors? Is it something new?QSEW 14.3

    Ellen White indicates that Christ Himself must have used this principle (see question 16). Rabbi Akiba recognized the year-day principle as early as 130 AD. Julius Africanus, in 240 AD interpreted the 70 weeks on this basis. Benjamin Nahawendi, who lived in the ninth century AD interpreted the 2300 days as years. Martin Luther used this principle in the interpretation of time prophecies. (See L. E. Froom, Prophetic Faith of Our Fathers, Volume 1, Page 280; Volume 2, pages 194, 1950 279.)QSEW 14.4
