But didn’t the little horn come out of the 4th kingdom? And isn’t the 4th kingdom, after Greece, pagan Rome? And wasn’t pagan Rome slain and its body destroyed by ~ 467 AD (7:11)? So, does that all mean the little horn HAD to come before pagan Rome was destroyed but after pagan Rome came to...

How about this: 1) He was born as a man - just like us, 2) He received the Holy Spirit on the first day of the 70th week when He was baptized by John and “anointed by His Father” - and just like us, we have to receive the Holy Spirit for salvation, 3) He physically died- just as we will, 4) He...

Thanks for the comments. So you don’t believe the 2300 day prophecy could refer to the Messiah as opposed to AE? Also, are you saying that verses 9-19, and 23-26 are not speaking about the 4th kingdom as opposed to the 3rd? And the reason I mention this is because the most important kingdom...

Yes, there really is not much given in the scriptures on his siblings or His early life. But the scriptures do give us that He had no less than 4 brothers and perhaps 2 sisters. Meaning, if they all came after Jesus, they would have been between 1 year and 11 years old at the time He went to...

Very kind of you!Thank you.

Interesting question! I am not sure but there may not be much written on this subject, however, here are my thoughts: 1) John was the youngest of the apostles and perhaps the strongest due to his youth. This would ensure she was taken care of up until her death. He was the only apostle that was...

Thanks. I am attempting to lay out the interpretations as we move from verse to verse. Believe me, Daniel does indeed interpret Daniel! It was written for the Jews and His city to prophecize the restoration of city and the people from Babylon. The 490 years covers the time from 457 BC to 33/34...

Thank you again for your thoughts.

Thank you! Yes, it would definitely be at His first coming. It would only be at His first coming where the purpose would be to break apart those of His people that He could mold, to go out into the world and preach the gospel. So, that means the 10 toes (which were not struck), but were also...

Thanks again for your detailed thoughts. If you do not mind, I would like to back track a little and ask you a few questions. 1) If you agreed that 2:34 is indeed the first coming of the Messiah, then this reflects the “symbolic Stone” that strikes the feet (only) and breaks the iron and the...

it does and thanks for your response!

Thank you for your response! Do you agree the 10 toes were in existence before the cross, after the cross and will continue until His return? Do you see the 10 toes are the same as the 10 horns and the 10 kings? Do you have a thought on the identity of the "little horn" who came out of pagan...

If you care to continue, perhaps you might want to comment on my thoughts mentioned in #159 - agree / disagree, alternative view or considerations, etc. As I mentioned, these and so many others offer a completely different set of interpretations from "today's accepted interpretations" that are...

Now I am confused! I took it that you were politely telling me that you did not want to continue with this discussion. Your reply did not contradict my thoughts. - in fact, I believe you stated you had beliefs or thoughts that 2:34 was also His first coming. Sorry if I read your reply...

Ok, and thanks for your reply! Best wishes always!

Well, thank you again for your interesting response. It appears we are not very far apart in our interpretations.... because the "foundations" of Daniel - the 4 kingdoms are indeed agreed. And I believe that is exactly why they were placed within God's prophecies.- to establish the formal...

Thank you very much for your response! Well, I certainly agree with you the 4th kingdom beast that came out of the earth or the sea is indeed Rome. And I will make a point of identifying this 4th kingdom even further as 'pagan Rome." It was pagan Rome who would be ruing at the time of the...

Great, let’s move on to verse 20 and 21. What is happening, when, why, etc? Thanks

With all due respect, you repeated your interpretation. These verses are rather clear in identifying the actors and timing - 4th kingdom. Perhaps you might take verse 19 and provide a brief description / interpretation? Thanks.

Would you mind telling me who is being mentioned in 7:19-25? What kingdom did he arrive and when? Doesn't the "little horn" continue until the end of time when he will be destroyed without human hands?
