The seven years (7) (1290 days) (1335 days) (6) 105 days; and these 105 days are (30) + (30 × 2) + (30 ÷ 2) = 30 days, two times, and half a time, such that the unit of time The interpretation of the unit of time in the Book of Daniel here is 30 days.

Fifth Section: This section clarifies when and how the final period of the end times began. The King called it for Daniel, "the time of the end." This time has a direct connection to three kings between whom battles and wars occur. One is called the King of the South, and another is the King of the North, and a third king whose name is not mentioned, but some of his descriptions and actions are mentioned. The King of the North in the Book of Daniel refers to a ruler who has authority over the lands north of Jerusalem, starting from Syria and above. The King of the South refers to a ruler who has authority over the lands south of Jerusalem, specifically the land of Egypt. The King whose name is not mentioned, but whose descriptions and actions are mentioned, is the key to understanding when and how this period began. This period is called in the Book "the time of the end." To know this king, we say, and with the help of God Almighty: The King said to Daniel: "O Daniel, the vision of the evening and the morning which has been told is true. But you, Daniel, shut up the vision, for it pertains to many days hence." "O Daniel, hear the words that I speak to you, and incline your ear to my understanding. For I have seen visions, and the interpretation thereof is not yet known. And I have seen a ram which had two horns, and the two horns were high; but one was higher than the other, though it grew up last. I saw the ram pushing westward, northward, and southward; no beast could stand before him, nor could any escape out of his power; but he did according to his will, and became great. And as I was considering, behold, a he-goat came from the west across the face of the whole earth, which did not touch the ground: and the he-goat had a notable horn between his eyes. And he came to the ram that had two horns, which I had seen standing before the river, and ran unto him in the fury of his power. And I saw him come close unto the ram, and he was enraged against him, and smote the ram, and broke his two horns: and there was no power in the ram to stand before him, but he cast him down to the ground, and stamped upon him: and there was no man that could deliver the ram out of his hand. Therefore the he-goat waxed very great; and when he was great, his great horn was broken, and instead of it there came up four notable horns toward the four winds of heaven. And out of one of them came forth a little horn, which grew exceedingly great toward the south, toward the east, and toward the pleasant land. And it grew up to the host of heaven; and cast down some of the host and of the stars to the ground, and stamped upon them. Yea, he magnified himself even to the prince of the host, and by him the daily sacrifice was taken away, and the place of his sanctuary was cast down. And an host was given him against the daily sacrifice by reason of transgression, and he cast truth down to the ground; and he did it, and prospered. Then I heard a holy one speaking, and another holy one said unto that certain one which spake, How long shall be the vision, concerning the daily sacrifice, and the transgression of desolation, to give both the sanctuary and the host to be trodden under foot? And he said unto me, Unto two thousand and three hundred days; then shall the sanctuary be cleansed. And it came to pass, when I, even I Daniel, had seen the vision, and sought for the meaning, then, behold, there stood before me as it had been the appearance of a man. And I heard a man's voice between the banks of Ulai, which called, and said, Gabriel, make this man to understand the vision. So he came near where I stood: and when he came, I was afraid, and fell upon my face: but he said unto me, Understand, O son of man: for at the time of the end shall be the vision. Now as he was speaking with me, I went out, and the sight of the vision was as it were a great tempest, which tossed me to and fro, and I was weak, and I understood not the vision. And he told me the interpretation of the vision. Daniel 8:11-26.

These days 1290 and 1335 are mentioned at the end of the Book of Daniel in the "Al-Hasaamah" (The Great Tribulation). Daniel said: "What is this that he said to me, 'For two thousand and three hundred days; then shall the sanctuary be cleansed'? And I Daniel fainted, and was sick certain days; afterward I rose up, and did the king's business; and I was astonished at the vision, but no man understood it." Daniel 8:27.
