Lalu ia berkata kepadaku: “Sampai dua ribu tiga ratus petang dan pagi, lalu tempat kudus akan dipulihkan haknya.”
Sefer Daniel; Opportunity in Exile
Sefer Daniel presents numbers and terms indicating the expected arrival time of Mashiach. The phrase “Idan, Idanim UFelag Idan” of Daniel Perek 7 Pasuk 25 might refer to three and a half “idans” or eras. Daniel 8:14 refers to the number 2,300 without mentioning whether they are days, weeks, months or years. Daniel 12:12 refers to the number 1,335. Many use these numbers as a basis to calculate the Keitz, Mashiach’s estimated time of arrival.
Rashi
And from the time the daily sacrifice was removed in order to place a silent abomination in its stead, are days of one thousand two hundred and ninety years since the daily sacrifice was removed until it will be restored in the days of our King Messiah, and this calculation coincides with the calculation of (8:14): “evening and morning, two thousand and three hundred” from the day of their exile to Egypt until the final redemption: Egyptian exile 210; From their Exodus until the First Temple 480; First Temple 410; Babylonian exile 70; Second Temple 420; Totalling 1590. The daily sacrifice was removed six years before the destruction, which equals 1584. Add 1290, and the total sum is 2874; like the numerical value of בֹּקֶר עֶרֶב [574] plus 2300 [2874].

Calculations of Rav Saadia Gaon and the Malbim
Daniel Perek 8 Pesukim 23-25 speak of the rise of a brazen (עַז-פָּנִים) king. His reign of terror will end after a time period of 2300 years according to Daniel 8:14 (the Pasuk does not specify whether it is days or years). Rav Saadia Gaon interprets this as 2300 years from Yetziat Mitzrayim115The Ibn Ezra (Daniel 8:25) questions Rav Saadia Gaon. Ibn Ezra asks why the count begins with Yetzi’at Mitzrayim. Moreover, years are not mentioned in this context. It could possibly mean 2,300 days or weeks.. Yetziat Mitzrayim occurred (according to the Seder Olam) in the year 2448 from Creation. Mashiach’s arrival, accordingly, was scheduled for 4778 = 988 C.E.
