According to context of Daniel 7, both theĀ “time, times, and half a time”, and the time when the “saints took possession of the kingdom” are connected to the coming of the Son of Man in verses 13-14. As we will demonstrate, these two eschatological events identify the coming of the Son of Man in Daniel 7, and by implication Mathew 16:27-28, as the second coming of Christ, fulfilled in AD70.
