Daniel 7 1 In the first year of Belshazzar king of Babylon Daniel had a dream and
visions of his head upon his bed: then he wrote the dream, and told the sum of the matters.
2 Daniel spake and said, I saw in my vision by night,
and, behold, the four winds of the heaven, (the Four Social Group Forces), strove upon the great sea (of the Western World).
3
And four great beasts (of sexually misdirected economics: [Dan 3:1-5]) came up from the sea, diverse one from another.
4 The first was (Babylon), like a lion, and had eagle’s
wings: [Hosea
8:1], I beheld till the wings thereof were plucked, and it was lifted up from the earth, and made stand
upon the feet as a man, and, (Nebo, God of knowledge, science, writing), a man’s heart, (a mind; [Hebrew: Leb]) was given to it [Dan 4:16].
5 And behold another beast,
a second, like to a bear, and it raised up itself on one side, (Persia more powerful than the Medes), and it had three ribs in the mouth of it between the teeth of it (that were the three wars preceding its establishment): and they, (the messengers of the Lord to Cyrus the Great: [Isaiah 45:1-5]), said thus unto it, Arise, (against Babylon), devour much flesh.
6 After this I beheld, and lo another, like a leopard, (Greece), which had upon the back of it four wings, (the spirit of the four division of that kingdom
after Alexander the Great), of a fowl, (the Sky
God, Zeus); the beast had also four
heads (of Greek divided political power that would come after Alexander’s death); and dominion (over the Western World) was given to it.
7 After this I saw in the night visions, and behold a fourth beast,
(Rome), dreadful and terrible, and strong
exceedingly; and it had great iron teeth (of short iron swords): it devoured (all the Western World), and brake in pieces (of Constantinople in the East, and Rome in the West), and stamped the residue with the feet of it, (the ten
toes of the European Nations comprising it):
and it was diverse from all the beasts that were before it; and it had ten horns (of political powers to come: 1. Undivided Empire: Diocletian: [to 305 AD], 2. Western Roman Empire: Augustus: [to 476 AD], 3.
Eastern
Christian Roman, Byzantine Empire: [1453 AD] 4. Charlemagne, [800 - 1000 AD] 5.
Holy
Roman Empire, [1200 AD-1492 AD] 6. Italy: Renaissance:
[16th century] 7. Spain, [17th century] 8. France, [18th-19th
Century] 9. Britain, [19th-20th century] 10. Nazi Germany, [20th century])
Link to the whole History from head to toe.
Dan 7:9 I beheld, (in 467AD: [Dan 9:24-27]) till the thrones (of Christianity) were cast down: [Rev 20:4], and
the Ancient of days, (the
Word: [John 1:1]) did sit (upon
all the Empire of Rome), whose garment, (The Scriptures), was white as snow, and the hair of his head like the pure wool: his throne,
(The Torah), was like the fiery flame, and his wheels: [Ezekiel 1:16],
(the Nevi’im and
the Kethuvim, the Prophets and the Writings), as burning
fire, (The Old Testament).
Dan 7:10 A fiery stream (of proseltyzing: [Rev 9: 9,10]) issued and came forth from (the locusts: [Rev 9:3,7]) before him: thousand thousands ministered
unto him, and ten thousand times ten thousand, (144,000 monks: [Rev 7:5-8; 14:4]) stood before him: the judgment was set, (in Universal Christianity, 380 AD: [Rev
20:4]), and the books, (the Old
Testament and the canonized New Testament, 382AD)
were opened.
