People's Commentary (NT)
Revelation 9:15 And the four angels were loosed. Whatever these angels represent, they are no longer restrained. It is implied that there were four agencies, or a fourfold division. Which were prepared for an hour, and a day, and a month, and a year. The Greek word "eniautos" used that for the regular solar year of 365-1/4 days, Julius Caesar having reformed the calendar. This would make 365-1/4, plus 30, plus 1, plus 1/12, equal 396-1/3 days. Or, a day being a symbol of a year, 396 years and four months.
