We agree, the Little Horn can not be Antiochus, he however was a type A.C. and he had a type False Prophet under him, and thus we get the full archetype(s) of the end times. Jason (real name Yeshua) was of the persuasion that all Jews should take on the culture of the Greeks, serve their gods, buy into ther love and approval of homosexuality et al. Did you know the name Gym (Gymnasium) comes from the Greek and they built these Gyms for men only two play sports in, NAKED (LOL) and this is true, look it. So, when we see the end time Little Horn prophecy where it says he will change "Times and Laws" this is a likeness unto Antiochus and Jason, it really means they will seek to change "Culture & Traditions" like Marriage between only a man and woman, the Jewish Feast Holidays, the Worshiping of Jesus freely, Israel allows freedom of choice in worshipping.
This can all be looked up, it is historical facts. Jason's brother was a Pious high priest, Jason offered Antiochus a bribe and was named the high priest, his brother Onias III was killed. Jason then did what Antiochus wanted him to do, because he was already of that persuasion. He welcomed Antiochus into the temple of God to offer a sacrifice on the altar of God unto Zeus. He then put out and edict that mandated all Jews become Hellenized, this action led to a revolt, known as the Maccabean Revolt. Then whilst Antiochus was on the Eastern front in battle he died via a disease, or "Without Hands" just like the coming Anti-Christ will die "Without Hands" when Jesus speaks victory. Antiochus and Jason defiling the temple is why we got Hanukkah in the first place, the temple had to be cleansed. So, Jason and Antiochus defiled the temple of God just like the False Prophet and Little Horn/A.C./Beast will do via the AoD. The False Prophet does this via the Anti-Christs orders at the 1290, which happens 30 days before he conquers Israel at the 1260 event.
As per the 10 divisions, the number 10 simply means COMPLETION. The bride has 10 virgins, so that number represents the complete church. In Rev. 2:10 the church of Smyrna was to have 10 days of tribulation, that means for the complete church age there will be tribulation, as Jesus tells us in John 16:33 so, it all jibes. The 10 plagues of God, the 10 Commandments of God always point to completion by God or a representation of the complete Judgement and Laws of God. So, not understand these prophetic ways of God leads people down wrong paths. The E.U. reuniting is the 10, when it was 7 or 8 when it was 16 or 20 then lastly when it was 27 etc. etc. etc. That way God's always correct, the E.U. is the complete number thereof at any moment in time, sans the number 10.
Correct, but the Greek Beast is NOT FINISHED........I am about to throw you a curve ball I was given in the last month or so. Why does Daniel 2 say the 3rd Beast conquers the whole world? When we know that Alexander the Great never conquered the complete Mediterranean Sea Region? That is what it means, the EARTH being spoken about in the 7 Headed 10 Horned Region, meaning only the Mediterranean Sea Region. Thus as we can see below, Greece never conquered the complete region, but Rome did in 117 AD.
Notice, Alexander the Great never conquered Rome to the East nor most of North Africa

Then lets look at Rome circa 117 AD.

Notice which Beast conquers the whole earth [being spoken about] above? It was only Rome. But in spite of that lets look at this Dan. 2 scripture.
Dan. 2:39 And after thee shall arise another kingdom inferior to thee, and
another third kingdom of brass, which shall bear rule over all the earth.
But how can Greece bear rule over the whole earth being spoken about, the Mediterranean Sea Region when they never conquered the whole earth being spoken about, as Rome did? This bothered me a bit in the past, but I just thought it proved the whole world never gets conquered by this end tie beast, but alas, it show the last beast who is ONE MAN, has ties to both Greece and Rome, he is born in Greece as we see that Daniel 8:9 mandates, and he comes to political power in the E.U. as Dan. 7:7-8 mandates. So, the way Dan. 2:39 is fulfilled is a man born in Greece (of Assyrian blood) arises to power as the E.U. President and he is the Little Horn tat goes forth conquering in Dan. 11:40-43, who then dies in vs. 45. Since when has the RCC or Pope fought wars? This last beast fulfills Dan. 2:39 by doing the exact same thing Rome did, he conquers the whole Mediterranean Sea Region.
When we look at the European Neighborhood Policy, where the E.U. has 7 year agreements with Israel and every nation on the Mediterranean Sea Region, we see who the Beast is the E.U. who conquers Israel and THE MANY seen in Dan. 8:25 and Dan. 9:27, but we see the actual wars in Dan. 11:40-43.

We know he attacks Turkey because of Dan. 8:9, he conquers to the East (Seleucus/Turkey) and to the South (Ptolemy/Egypt). Then in Dan. 11:40-43 we get a play be play where we see he conquers MANY COUNTRIES to get at Israel, then he conquers the whole North Africa coastline, he is however not allowed to conquer Edom, Moab and Ammon (where Israel flees unto in Jordan).
This is all he conquers, he dies in verse 45, NOWHERE do we see that he conquers the entire world, that us just a myth, and bad interpretation of prophecy. The 7 Heads and 10 Horns only match the Mediterranean Sea Region area. So, we agree, it is not Antiochus, but he was the archetype. And Greece has to have a man in their lineage, who actually conquers the whole region being spoken about.
Agreed, but it can only be ONE MAN, who rules over Israel for 1260 days brother.
