At the end of the Book of Daniel, there are two remarkable verses that there is no agreement between Biblical Scholars on what the day references mean.  The Angel Gabriel is giving an additional prophecy to Daniel start in Daniel 12:1-3 dealing with the end-times, where the unknown verses are in verse 11 and 12.
 

When Daniel was writing the verses, there is the remarkable acknowledgment that Daniel did not know what the verses meant as indicated in Daniel 12:8.

In the verse of Daniel 12:4, the "words" (which is meant to be the Word of God ~ scriptures) is dealing with the prophecy that is about to be given which is:

• Sealed until the proper time in the future, and
• Knowledge of the "word", which is implies the scriptures, will be increased as many Biblical Scholars have been noting.

Interestingly, in the verse 5 and 6 of Daniel 12 (shown below), then Daniel sees two other men standing across from one another on a river.  Each was on the opposing riverbank.  One of the two of the two men asks the question "How long shall the fulfillment of these wonders be?"  Note that it is important to notice that these two men were not identified to be Daniel and not the Angel Gabriel. 

Speculation and a theory by this author is:

• Because the two men were clothed in linen, is a possible hint or clue, that they are men that have died already with Salvation which God is using to deliver the message.
• The two men might be Moses and Elijah, who were also called to meet with Jesus Christ as the Mount of Transfiguration event of Matthew 17, Mark 9 and Luke 9: 
  (a) Part of this theory by the author is the possibility that the visit of Moses and Elijah at the Mount of Transfiguration was dealing with them being the Two Witnesses in the Book of Revelation.
  (b) If there is a link with the Two Witnesses, then the two men might be these two men as the verses 5 and 6 are dealing with the ending of the Tribulation Period.
  Some readers might say that Daniel would have recognized Moses and Elijah, but not necessarily, and this theory is just a thought in this author's mind which should be taken as a mere possibility.

The physical floating in the air position of one of the two men, suddenly who was above the waters of the river, is hard to speculate.  Some people might state the possibility that the man "above the waters" is Jesus Christ in a Theophany appearance, as the man knows the future.  This author is not stating the floating man is Jesus Christ, but imagine it might be a thought considered and there are no Biblical Commentaries, that this author could find, to give a good enough theory on the floating man.

When dealing with Daniel 11-12, we are given a starting point of the Abomination of Desolation Event, where we know the Tribulation Period ends after 1260 days, which is 3.5 years, but the two verses state additional days after the Tribulation Period ends.  The question that no Biblical Commentaries have a good answer is what is occurring:

1. During the additional 30 days?
2. During the additional 75 days?

A few Biblical Scholars, including this Author, believe the Judgment Seat of Jesus Christ and the Wedding Supper of the Lamb occurs immediately after the Second Coming of Jesus Christ, which is the ending of the Tribulation Period.  The extra 30 Days and 70 days, may contain the period of time for all these events:

• Judgment Seat of Jesus Christ
• Wedding Supper of the Lamb
• Sheep and Goat Judgment
• Setting up the Millennial Kingdom

(Note: some readers may disagree with the placement of the Judgment Seat of Jesus Christ, where the theory is explanted in the Judgment Seat of Jesus Christ topic.  Also, note that God is not confined to time constraints and God exists outside of His entire Creation.  The Kingdom of God, is not restricted to time, God exists outside of time and there are multiple Time Domains that God has created.)

As detailed in the 70th week in Daniel topic, the week is a period of seven years, where the period is divided into two halves of 3.5 years, which is 1260 days and 1260 days.  God, in all of the prophecies in the Bible. uses 30 day months of 360 day years.  The starting point of the Tribulation Period is the Abomination of Desolation Event.
