Bar Ḥiyya writes: אם אתה מונה אותם מחרבן שני שהיה בשנת ג׳ אלפים תתכ״ח יכלה החשבון בשנת ה׳ אלפים קי״ח — “If you count them from the Second Destruction, which was in the year 3828, the reckoning ends in the year 5118”, of Daniel’s “days, one thousand two hundred and ninety”. He closes: “perhaps the first end will be for the coming of the redeemer in the salvation of God.” Hebcal converts 1 Tishrei 5118 to 24 September 1357 and 1 Tishrei 5119 to 12 September 1358 (proleptic Gregorian).

About 1378 · “circa septuagesimum octavum annum”
Arnold of Villanova: Antichrist in the holy place about 1378
Predicted dateDaniel’s vision of resurrectionGeneral Judaism

Dating basis
Counting Daniel’s 1,290 days as years from the Jews’ loss of their land, Arnold writes that Antichrist will stand in the holy place “circa septuagesimum octavum annum centenarii sequentis videlicat quarti decimi a salvatoris adventu” (about the seventy-eighth year of the fourteenth century from the Saviour’s coming), adding that he cannot say how much before or after. The reading stands on a correction in the manuscript; Finke notes that Fr. Gentilis gives 1376. The predicted event is Antichrist’s appearance, which Arnold places before the Last Judgment.
Approximate year
Stated 1297. Arnold writes that "we who now count 1,297 years from the coming of the Lord" live in the last two centuries of the age.

In the same summary the fifth period, John’s 1,260 years from 396, runs “to the end of the year one thousand six hundred fifty six”; elsewhere in the book (pp. 328–330, not displayed) Tillinghast calls 1656 “the last year of the Beasts reign, and the Witnesses wearing sackcloth”, while noting that the year count might be the then-current 1654.

1688–1700 · Napier’s stated bounds
Napier: the day of judgment between 1688 and 1700
Predicted dateDaniel’s vision of resurrectionGeneral Judaism

Dating basis
Napier’s Proposition 14 states that the day of God’s judgment appears to fall between 1688 and 1700. He derives 1700 from Daniel’s 1335 days as years counted from 365, 1688 from three periods of 49 years after 1541, and 1697 or 1699 from 1600 stades counted from about 97 or 99. The bounds are his; earlier in the proposition (p. 16, outside the displayed excerpt) he says the precise day and hour are known only to God.
Stated range: between 1688 and 1700, both years named by the author
Stated 1593. Napier's A Plaine Discovery of the Whole Revelation of Saint John was printed at Edinburgh by Robert Waldegrave in 1593.

1694 · “In this year then, or sooner”

Alsted adds 2,625 years, which he says Daniel 12 sets after the end of the seventy weeks, to the year of Christ 69, reaching 2694; subtracting the thousand years gives 1694: “In this year then, or sooner our THOUSAND years shall take their beginning.” He excepts the Last Judgment from what happens within the 2,694 years. The English is the 1643 translation of his Latin Diatribe of 1627; the vision outline in the same book places the last four vials between 1625 and 1694, “in which the 1000 years seem to begin”.
Stated year, with the possibility that it comes sooner

He leaves open whether the days may be shortened so that Christ appears “some years sooner”.
