| | |Now, the prophet Daniel had been in Babylon for '''sixty-eight years'''. You who wants to run references back, and save yourself some of the time, that I’ve had to—to looking it up. Sixty-eight years! '''He went into captivity in b.c. 606''', and when '''the vision came to him was—was b.c. 538. 538 from 606, leaves sixty-eight.''' Sixty-eight years he had been in Babylon, amongst heathens, and still had the victory.<ref>William Branham, 61-0730M - Gabriel's Instructions To Daniel, para.72</ref> | ||

C. 606, and 68 years''' had elapsed since then.<ref>Clarence Larkin, Dispensational Truth, or “God’s Plan and Purpose in the Ages“ (Philadelphia, PA: Clarence Larkin, 1918), 49.</ref> | |||
