So, the above ENDS THE VISION, but if this is how you understand it God has called Antiochus the Little Horn and gave us a vision of Antiochus to end the chapter. Neither of which can be true. The Little Horn is the coming Anti-Christ, not understanding that the 2300 is twice a day (Evening & Morning) sacrifices will throw us down a rabbit hole. Any Daniel understanding that ends with Antiochus makes no sense at all. So, lets see if Gabriel's interpretation clears things up a little.
Dan. 8:16 And I heard a man's voice between the banks of Ulai, which called, and said
, Gabriel, make this man to understand the vision. 17 So he came near where I stood: and when he came, I was afraid, and fell upon my face: but he said unto me, Understand, O son of man:
(1)for at the time of the end shall be the vision. 18 Now as he was speaking with me, I was in a deep sleep on my face toward the ground: but he touched me, and set me upright. 19 And he said, Behold, I will make thee know what shall be in the
(2)last end of the indignation: for at the time appointed the end shall be.
20 The
ram(Persia) which thou sawest having two horns are the kings of Media and Persia. 21
And the rough goat is the king of Grecia: and the great horn that is between his eyes is the
first king(Alex). 22 Now that being
broken(Alex dies), whereas
four stood up for it(Four Generals), four kingdoms shall stand up out of the nation, but not in his power.
23 And in the
(3)latter time of their kingdom, when the
(4)transgressors are come to the full, a king of
(5)fierce countenance, and
(6)understanding dark sentences, shall stand up.
24 And his
(7)power shall be mighty, but not by his own power: and he shall destroy wonderfully, and shall prosper, and practise, and shall destroy the
(8)mighty and the holy people.
25 And through his policy also he shall cause craft to prosper in his hand; and
(9)he shall magnify himself in his heart, and
(10)by peace shall destroy many: he shall also
stand up against the (11)Prince of princes(Jesus); but he
(12) shall be broken without hand.
26 And the
vision of the evening and the morning(Not DAYS, the exact same two Hebrew Words were used in verse 14 where they translated it DAYS) which was told is true: wherefore shut thou up the vision; for it shall be for many
days(different Hebrew word used fir Day here meaning DAY). 27 And I Daniel fainted, and was sick certain days; afterward I rose up, and did the king's business; and I was astonished at the vision, but none understood it.
1.) Gabriel explicitly tells Daniel that this vision is an END TIME VISION! Thus it has to end with the Anti-Christ.
2.) This vision will END the indignation of God towards Israel (490 years of penance), Jews repent/70th week.
3.) Is Greece still a Nation? Yes, so the Latter time of their kingdom has to be NOW. Not 2000 years ago!!
4.) Transgressors come to the full means Gods Wrath is full, that happens with the bowls of Wrath/END TIMES.
5.) The Fierce King is the Anti-Christ, not Antiochus whom cowered before three Roman Senators.
6.) Understanding Dark Sentences basically means he has access to the dark world. Matt. 24:24 Miracles !!
7.) Rev. 13 says that the Dragon gives him his POWER and his SEAT. Rome was more powerful than Antiochus.
8.) He overcomes the
mighty and holy peoples, Antiochus killed a bunch if Jews, but never conquered
Rome.
9.) He will magnify himself over ALL, even over all gods, Antiochus still served Zeus, and was scared of Rome.
10.) He destroys BY PEACE, Antiochus never did this in recorded history, the A.C. will as Dan. 9:27 says.
11.) He stands up (fights) against Jesus (Prince of princes) and we know Antiochus never did that don't we?
12.) He is killed WITHOUT HANDS, Jesus peaks victory. Dan. 2:34 shows us this is Jesus and the END TIMES !!
Dan. 2:34 Thou sawest till that a stone was cut out
without hands, which smote the image upon his feet that were of iron and clay, and brake them to pieces.
Let me add that the 2nd Seal points towards PEACE being taken away from the world. (Point #10 addendum)
Jesus will speak victory, just like he spoke creation.
ALL of these keys match the End Time Anti-Christ, not Antiochus Epiphanes sister. Look, I have big time preacher prophecy guys like Jimmy Evans who makes this same mistake. They must see the 2300 days (Satan is a liar and a schemer) and say this can't be the coming Anti-Christ, he only rules for 1260 days. The word DAY has TWO Hebrew words they translated into day, one means Evening the other means Morning, thus its 2300 evening and morning sacrifices that are taken away. And its not profane meat sacrifices anyway, its Jesus worship that is forbidden. Gabriel came to Daniel in Daniel 9:21 about the time of the EVENING OBLATION !! So, if Daniel had of been forbidden from worshiping God for 2300 Evening AND Morning Oblations how many days would that have taken? Easy answer, 1150 days.
Nothing in Dan. 8:9-14 matches Antiochus, it all matches the Anti-Christ and the End Times. The Little Horn is the Anti-Christ, not Antiochus, Daniel points us towards the END TIMES in each vision, not 2200 years ago. There can be no middle of the week in 70 AD because the week starts with an AGREEMENT (Covenant) between the Anti-Christ, Israel and MANY NATIONS.
God Bless....I will have to show you latter why the Anti--Christ MUST be born in Greece, the key is Daniel 8:9.
