    Daniel 7:11 “the beast.”

    Ok, I think we can call it a day. Thanks.

    Daniel 7:11 “the beast.”

    There is nothing that tells you the clay will be destroyed. You are not understanding that Jesus did not come to destroy but to divide. He is using the clay, and Himself as the Potter (found in the OT) to symbolize the separation of His people, not only away from pagan Rome but into those that...

    Daniel 7:11 “the beast.”

    Would you mind unpacking 2:41 for me? What specifically is the meaning? Who are the actors? When do these things take place? What has caused these events and changes? This is one of the four (41-44) EXTREMELY difficult verses to interpret. The ONLY verses that surpass these 4 are those found...

    Daniel 7:11 “the beast.”

    There are only 4 beasts or kingdoms that God had brought out of the sea. The 4 are repeated in chapter 7. God’s earthly kingdom that He set up at the cross was not “brought out of the sea.” It was not from the earth or the sea. There is a very specific reason why God selected the 4 beast...

    Daniel 7:11 “the beast.”

    Davy, I am writing this post to you after reading the last post from Trevor. Apparently, he does not seem interested in continuing our discussion on Daniel. At this time, you are the only individual that MAY be interested.. if not, you can also let me know and the discussion about verse 7:11...

    Daniel 7:11 “the beast.”

    I cannot discuss Revelation at this time … but the Book of Daniel. And we cannot discuss chapter 7 until we discuss chapter 2. I certainly am not telling you that your interpretations are wrong or faulty but here to DISCUSS an alternative interpretation. And that discussion is now to...

    Daniel 7:11 “the beast.”

    Sorry, I am not following you here. Is the 4th kingdom in the metal man image in chapter 2 the Roman Empire? It is important, in my studies, that one interprets chapter 2 on its own and then move onto to chapter 7 where God builds off of His chapter 2 “blueprint.” Further, Daniel was written...

    Daniel 7:11 “the beast.”

    I do understand that this is indeed one of the many interpretations found in the community today. But I have found that unless 34 is interpreted as His first coming and He came, not to destroy, as many Jews expected (destroying Rome in a military like manner and freeing Israel from their...

    Daniel 7:11 “the beast.”

    Thanks .. the 4th beast is the same in both chapters…

    Daniel 7:11 “the beast.”

    Thank you again. I find we are so close in our interpretations… nice to find! But I would like to continue since we do have some different views (which is fine of course). Regarding the 4th kingdom, you are indeed correct- pagan Rome is the 4th kingdom and was present at the time of the...

    Daniel 7:11 “the beast.”

    But you really did not answer the question. What kingdom was ruling at the time of the Messiah? And you are correct, “in the days of these kings,” do in fact represent the kings mentioned in chapter’s 2 and 7 - in the “days of the kings” revealed in the metal man image. It is during this 4...

    Daniel 7:11 “the beast.”

    Very nice and thank you! The only question I would like to ask you is for you tell explain your thoughts on when the 4th beast was or will be slain. Now, we agree the 4th beast kingdom is indeed Rome but wasn’t Rome slain? Thanks

    Daniel 7:11 “the beast.”

    Thanks, but who was the kingdom that was ruling at the time of the Messiah? Was this the same kingdom that was identified in chapter 2 as the fourth kingdom? Was not the third kingdom in chapter’s 2, 7, 8, and 11 Greece?

    Daniel 7:11 “the beast.”

    In Daniel 7:11 he writes that the beast will be slain….. Who is this beast? When was this beast slain? Is this one of the 4 kingdoms identified in chapter 2? Why is this (if it is) so relevant in this chapter?

    This is the context of how Dan. 9:24-27 should be considered!

    I believe we should simply move on. Best wishes.

    This is the context of how Dan. 9:24-27 should be considered!

    I think you have misunderstood the verse and have twisted things. That is alright because Daniel is such a difficult book to interpret. Many believe it also must follow our English grammatical rules- but it was not written that way nor does it / or must it be interpreted that way. It all must...

    Maybe you might want to study the wording of the verse- who destroyed the city verses who is the prince that COMES AFTER that individual who destroyed the city. Good luck.

    This is the context of how Dan. 9:24-27 should be considered!

    Thanks for your response. For what it is worth, here is a cut / paste found within the Daniel 8:12 narrative in the commentary on Daniel: The “Host” (army) Given to the Little Horn In Daniel 8:12, the term often translated “army” does not need to be confined to a military force in the...

    Is is possible that the term "army" used here does not mean a military army?
