THE BOOK OF DANIEL (CHAPTER SEVEN---PART ONE)

                         CHAPTER SEVEN IS THREE YEARS BEFORE CHAPTER SIX.

                            BELSHAZZAR IS STILL ALIVE IN THIS CHAPTER.

IN THE LAST CHAPTER DANIEL WAS THROWN IN THE DEN OF LIONS FOR NOT OBEYING THE DECREE OF THE KING. THE KING WAS TRICKED BY HIS OWN GOVERNORS TO SIGN A DEGREE TO STOP ALLOWING DANIEL TO WORSHIP HIS GOD. THEREFORE, DANIEL WAS THROWN INTO THE DEN OF LIONS FOR DISOBEYING, BUT THE LORD RESCUED HIM. 

THE KING PUNISHED THOSE EVIL GOVERNORS (HE LOVED DANIEL), BY THROWING THEM AND THEIR FAMILIES INTO THE DEN OF LIONS AND THEY WERE ALL CONSUMED.

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.

THIS WAS IN 429 B.C. DANIEL BEING 84 YEARS OLD. THREE YEARS BEFORE THE EVENTS OF CHAPTER SIX.
THIS VISION (CHAPTER 7) IS STILL IN CHALDEE (THE GENTILE LANGUAGE), BECAUSE IT IS THE CONTINUATION OF 2:44, AND SHOWS WHAT WILL TAKE PLACE IN "THE DAYS OF THOSE KINGS" BEFORE THE STONE STRIKES THE IMAGE. IT BRINGS US UP TO THE END OF GENTILE DOMINION OVER ISRAEL.

BELSHAZAR WAS THE LAST KING OF BABYLON.

THE FUTURE KING OF BABYLON (CONFUSION IN THE HEBREW) IS SATAN.

7:2  Daniel spake and said, "I saw in my vision by night, and, behold, the four winds of the heaven strove upon the great sea.

THE FOUR WINDS REPRESENT THE END OF THIS EARTH AGE (REV. 7). ALL BLOWING AT THE SAME TIME BRINGING THE END.

SEA IS SYMBOLIC OF PEOPLE, NATIONS, MULTITUDES (REV. 17:15).

7:3 And four great beasts came up from the sea, diverse one from another.

THEY ARE THE 4 HEAD DYNASTIES: 1. EDUCATION. 2. POLITICAL. 3. ECONOMY. 4. RELIGION.

7:4  The first was like a lion (LOOKED LIKE A LION), and had eagle's wings (THE WINGS THAT GOD SAID, I WILL PROTECT YOU): 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 (LOOKED LIKE A MAN), and a man's heart was given to it.

THIS IS THE KENITE SYSTEM...THE ONE WORLD ORDER.

7:5  And behold another beast, a second, like to a bear (A BEAR IS SYMBOLIC OF RUSSIA). and it raised up itself on one side, and it had three ribs in the mouth of it between the teeth of it, 'Arise, devour much flesh.'

THERE WAS A 5TH PART THAT HAD TO DO WITH THE NATIONS.

7:6  After this I beheld, and lo another, like a leopard (THE KENITES), which had upon the back of it four wings of a fowl; the beast had also four heads; and dominion was given to it. 

7:7  After this I saw in the night visions, and behold a fourth beast, dreadful and terrible, and strong exceedingly; and it had great iron teeth: it devoured and brake in pieces, and stamped the residue with the feet of it: and it was diverse from all the beasts that were before it; and it had ten horns.

THE 10 HORNS ARE THE 10 RULERS OF THE WORLD THAT WILL BRING FORTH THE WORLD PEACE. THE 10 HORNS ARE ADDRESSED IN REV. 17:12.

THEY ARE DREADFUL AND TERRIBLE BECAUSE OF THE DECEPTION.

7:8  I considered the horns, and, behold, there came up among them another little horn (SATAN), before whom there were three of the first horns plucked up by the roots (LITERALLY DESTROY THEM): and, behold, in this horn were eyes like the eyes of a man (ISAIAH 14. 'IS THIS THE MAN (SATAN) THAT DECEIVETH THE WHOLE WORLD? MAN=ISH, NOT ADAM. MEANING HE IS CREATED FROM A DIFFERENT SUBSTANCE THAT US. HE IS NOT FLESH), and a mouth speaking great things.

THE LITTLE HORN=A HORN OF SMALL BEGINNINGS. THIS IDENTIFIES THE FIRST OF 12 TITLES GIVEN TO THE POWER COMMONLY KNOWN AS THE ANTICHRIST (SATAN). OTHER TITLES ARE THE KING OF BABYLON (ISAIAH 14:4), THE ASSYRIAN (ISAIAH 14:25), LUCIFER,  "SON OF THE MORNING", IN OPPOSITION TO "THE BRIGHT AND MORNING STAR" (ISAIAH 14:12), "THE PRINCE THAT SHALL COME" (DANIEL 9:26), "THE KING OF FIERCE COUNTENANCE" (DANIEL 8:23), "THE VILE PERSON" (DANIEL 11:21), "THE WILFUL KING (DANIEL 11:36), "THE MAN OF SIN", (II THESS. 2:3), "THE SON OF PERDITION" (II THESS. 2:3), "THAT WICKED OR LAWLESS ONE (II THESS. 2:8, REV. 13:18), "THE BEAST WITH TEN HORNS" (REV. 13:1).

MAKE A NOTE OF REV. 17:12.

7:9  I beheld till the thrones were cast down (THE SEATS FOR JUDGMENT. THOSE THRONES WERE DESTROYED. THE REFERENCE IS TO THIS, REV. 4:2), and the Ancient of days did sit, Whose garment was white as snow (PURE), and the hair of His head like the pure wool: His throne was like the fiery flame, and His wheels as burning fire (THIS IS GOD'S VEHICLE (EZ. 1). HIS THRONE WAS INSIDE THAT VEHICLE).

7:10  A fiery stream issued  and came forth from before Him: thousands ministered unto Him (WAITING UPON HIM), and ten thousand times ten thousand stood before Him (STANDING, INDICATING READINESS FOR SERVICE): the judgment was set (THE JUDGE WHO ACTUALLY SAT ON THAT SEAT).

DON'T MISS PART TWO.

GOD BLESS

THE BOOK OF DANIEL (CHAPTER SIX---PART TWO)

                                                               THE DEN OF LIONS

DANIEL WAS THE HEAD OF THE GOVERNMENT DURING DARIUS REIGN AND THE OTHER GOVERMENTAL OFFICIALS WERE NOT HAPPY ABOUT THAT.  THEY TRICKED THE KING TO SIGN A DECREE THAT WOULD HAVE CAUSED ANYONE  TO BE PUT TO DEATH IF HE WAS CAUGHT WORSHIPPING ANY GOD.

THE KING CARED ABOUT DANIEL BUT HE SIGNED THE DECREE WITHOUT REALIZING WHAT HE DID. THE DECREE COULD NOT BE CHANGED AFTER THE KING SIGNED IT.

THESE EVIL GOVERMENTAL OFFICIALS MADE SURE THAT THEY LET THE KING KNOW THAT DANIEL WAS WORSHIPPING HIS GOD THREE TIMES A DAY.

THE KING LOST HIS SLEEP OVER THIS MATTER BECAUSE HE DID NOT WANT DANIEL TO BE PUT TO DEATH.

LET'S CONTINUE WITH THE CONCLUSION OF THE CHAPTER.

Daniel 6:16  Then the king commanded, and they brought Daniel, and cast him into the den of lions. Now the king spake and said unto Daniel, "Thy God Whom thou servest continually, He will deliver thee."

GOD TAKES CARE OF HIS OWN. HE IS NOT ONLY GOING TO DELIVER HIM BUT HE WILL PUNISH HIS ADVERSARIES.

6:17  And a stone was brought, and laid upon the mouth of the den; and the king sealed it with his own signet, and with the signet of his lords; that the purpose might not be changed concerning Daniel.

THE KING WOULDN'T LOOK GOOD AMONG HIS PEOPLE IF HE DIDN'T GO AHEAD WITH THE DECREE.

6:18  Then the king went to his palace, and passed the night fasting: neither were instruments of music brought before him, and his sleep went from him.

SHOWING THE LONGSTANDING AFFECTION WHICH DARIUS HAD FOR DANIEL.

THERE WERE NO PARTIES FOR HIM.

6:19  Then the king arose very early in the morning, and went in haste unto the den of lions.

6:20  And when he came to the den, he cried with a lamentable voice unto Daniel: and the king spake and said to Daniel, "O Daniel, servant of the living God, is thy God Whom thou servest continually, able to deliver thee from the lions ?"

6:21  Then said Daniel unto the king, "O king, live forever.

6:22  My God hath sent His angel, and hath shut the lions mouths, that they have not hurt me: forasmuch as before Him innocensy (PURITY) was found in me: and also before thee, O king, have I done no hurt.

DANIEL KNEW THAT GOD WAS GOING TO RESCUE HIM.

6:23  Then was the king exceeding glad for him (ANOTHER PROOF OF THE LONGSTANDING FRIENDSHIP BETWEEN DARIUS AND DANIEL), and commanded that they should take Daniel up out of the den. So Daniel was taken up out of the den, and no manner of hurt was found upon him, because he believed in his God.

DANIEL HAD THE SEAL OF GOD IN HIS FOREHEAD.

6:24  And the king commanded, and they brought those men which had accused Daniel, and they cast them into the den of lions, them, their children, and their wives; and the lions had the mastery of them, and brake all their bones in pieces or ever they came at the bottom of the den.

GOD AVENGES HIS OWN.

6:25  Then king Darius wrote unto all people, nations, and languages, that dwell in all the earth; "Peace be multiplied unto you."

A TYPE OF THE NEW WORLD ORDER.

6:26  I make a decree, That in every dominion of my kingdom men tremble and fear (RESPECT) before the God of Daniel: for He is the living God, and stedfast forever, and His kingdom that which shall not be destroyed, and His dominion shall be even unto the end.

6:27  He delivereth and rescueth, and He worketh signs and wonders in heaven and in earth, Who hath delivered Daniel from the power of the lions."

BEFORE YOU RESCUE SOMEONE THEY MUST BE IN DANGER. GOD RESCUED HIM FROM THAT DANGER.

6:28  So this Daniel prospered in the reign of Darius, and in the reign of Cyrus the Persian.

CYRUS WAS THE SON OF DARIUS THE MEDE. HE IS THE YOUNG DARIUS, HIS FATHER BEING THE OLD.

GOD NAMED CYRUS BEFORE HE WAS EVEN BORN. 

GOD BLESS

THE BOOK OF DANIEL (CHAPTER SIX---PART ONE)

 

                                                              THE PLOT TO SLAY DANIEL

Daniel 6:1 It pleased Darius to set over the kingdom an hundred and twenty princes, which should be over the whole kingdom;

HE SET UP GOVERNORS TO BE OVER THE KINGDOM. 

DARIUS THE MEDIAN OF 5:31 IS THE ARTAXERXES (THE GREAT KING) OF NEH. 2:1 AND EZRA 6:14, AHASUERUS OF ESTHER 1:1. THESE NAMES ARE ALL USED OF ONE AND THE SAME PERSON.

6:2  And over these three presidents; of whom Daniel was first: that the princes might give accounts (ACCOUNTANTS) unto them, and the king should have no damage.

6:3  Then this Daniel was preferred (FAVOURED) above the presidents and princes, because an excellent spirit was in him (REFERRING TO THE AFFECTIONATE REGARD IN WHICH DARIUS HELD DANIEL AFTER MANY YEARS OF FAITHFUL SERVICE); and the king thought to set him over the whole realm.

SHOWING THAT DANIEL WAS WELL KNOWN TO DARIUS THE MEDIAN, AND APPRECIATED.

6:4  Then the presidents and princes sought to find occasion against Daniel concerning the kingdom; but they could find none occasion nor fault; forasmuch as he was faithful, neither was there any error of fault found in him.

DANIEL WAS OVER THE GOVERNMENT AND THE TAXING, AND THE ACCOUNTING. HE WAS THEIR CHIEF EXECUTIVE, AND HE DID NOT  OVERDUE IT WITH TAXES BY BEING GREEDY.

THEY DID NOT LIKE HIM.

6:5  Then said these men, "We shall not find any occasion against this Daniel, except we find it against him concerning the law of his God."

THEY KNEW DANIEL WOULD OBEY THE LAW.

6:6  Then these presidents and princes assembled together to the king, and said thus unto him, "King Darius, live forever.

6:7  All the presidents of the kingdom, the governors, and the princes, the counsellors, and the captains, have consulted together to establish a royal statute, and to make a firm decree, that whosoever shall ask a petition of any God or man for thirty days, save of thee, O king, he shall be cast into the den of lions.

THEIR MOTIVE WAS TO GET RID OF DANIEL.

6:8  Now, O king, establish the decree, and sign the writing (PUT IT IN WRITING), that it be not changed, according to the law of the Medes and Persians, which altereth not."

THEY KNEW THAT IF THE KING SEALED THAT DECREE IT WOULD HAVE BECOME LAW, AND EVEN THE KING COULD NOT HAVE CHANGED IT IF HE WANTED TO.

6:9  Wherefore king Darius signed the writing of the decree.

IT BECAME A LAW.

6:10  Now when Daniel knew that the writing was signed, he went into his house; and his windows being open in his chamber toward Jerusalem (BECAUSE THEY WERE CAPTIVE. THEY HAD TO DO IT 3 TIMES A DAY, I KINGS 8:48), he kneeled upon his knees three times a day, and prayed, and gave thanks before his God, as he did aforetime.

6:11  Then these men assembled, and found Daniel praying and making supplication before his God.

6:12  Then they came near, and spake before the king concerning the king's decree; "Hast thou not signed a decree, that every man that shall ask a petition of any God or man within thirty days, save of thee, O king, shall be cast into the den of lions?" The king answered and said, "The thing is true, according to the law of the Medes and Persians, which altereth not (WHEN IT BECOMES A LAW IT CANNOT BE CHANGED)."

6:13  Then answered they and said before the king, "That Daniel, which is of the children of the captivity of Judah, regardeth not thee, O king, nor the decree that thou hast signed, but maketh his petition three times a day (HE IS DISOBEYING YOU 3 TIMES A DAY)."

6:14  Then the king, when he heard these words, was sore displeased with himself, and set his heart on Daniel to deliver him: and he labored till the going down of the sun to deliver him.

THE KING CARED ABOUT DANIEL A LOT AND HE WAS TRYING TO FIND A WAY TO SAVE DANIEL. HE KNOWS HE WAS TRICKED TO SIGN THAT DECREE.

6:15  Then these men assembled unto the king, and said unto the king, "Know, O king, that the law of Medes and Persians is, That no decree nor statute which the king establiseth may be changed."

IN OTHER WORDS, YOU HAVEN'T GOT A CHANCE O KING.

LESSON: DO NOT ALLOW GREEDY PEOPLE TO PLACE ANY CONDITION OR RULE UPON YOU. BE FAITHFUL TO GOD.

DON'T MISS PART TWO.

GOD BLESS

THE BOOK OF DANIEL (CHAPTER FIVE---PART ONE)

 

                                 BELSHAZZAR'S VISION OF THE HAND. HIS DOOM.

BELSHAZZAR( PRINCE OF BAAL) WAS NEBUCHADNEZZAR'S GRANDSON. HE WAS A DRUNK AND AN IDOL WORSHIPPER.

THE BOOK OF DANIEL IS DIVIDED INTO TWO PARTS: THE FIRST PART IS HISTORIC, WHILE THE LATTER IS PROPHETIC.

DANIEL'S ENTIRE PROPHECY WAS GIVEN IN THE TIME OF JUDAH'S CAPTIVITY BY THE KING OF BABYLON.  HE WAS ONLY A TYPE AND TEACHES US WHAT WILL HAPPEN UNDER THE RULE OF SATAN AS THE FUTURE KING OF BABYLON.

Daniel 5:1  Belshazzar (PRINCE OF BAAL) the king made a great feast to a thousand of his lords, and drank wine before the thousand.

5:2  Belshazzar, whiles he tasted the wine, commanded to bring the golden and silver vessels which his father (GRANDFATHER) Nebuchadnezzar had taken out of the temple which was in Jerusalem; that the king, and his princes, his wives, and his concubines, might drink therein.

HE WAS ORGANIZING A DRUNKEN ORGY.

THOSE VESSELS WERE SACRED, AND SYMBOLIC OF WHAT WOULD BECOME THE HOLY COMMUNION. IT WAS A BLASPHEMY WHAT HE DID.

5:3  Then they brought the golden vessels that were taken out of the temple of the house of God which was at Jerusalem; and the king, and his princes, his wives, and his concubines, drank in them.

AND AGAIN, THIS WAS A BLASPHEMY AGAINST GOD.

5:4  They drank wine, and praised the gods of gold, and of silver, of brass, of iron, of wood, and of stone.

GOLD, SILVER, BRASS, IRON, WOOD, STONE= SIX.

NUMBER #6 DENOTES THE HUMAN NUMBER IN BIBLICAL NUMERICS.

THE GREAT MEN WHO HAVE STOOD OUT IN DEFIANCE OF GOD (GOLIATH, THE KING OF BABYLON, AND THE FUTURE KING OF BABYLON=SATAN) ARE ALL EMPHATICALLY MARKED BY THIS NUMBER.

5:5  In the same hour (INSTANTLY) came forth fingers of a man's hand, and wrote over against the candlestick upon the plaister of the wall of the king's palace: and the king saw the part of the hand that wrote.

5:6  Then the king's countenance was changed, and his thoughts troubled him, so that the joints of his loins were loosed, and his knees smote one against another.

HE WAS VERY SCARED.

5:7  The king cried aloud to bring in the astrologers, the Chaldeans (WISE MEN), and the soothsayers. And the king spake, and said to the wise men of Babylon, "Whosoever shall read this writing, and shew me the interpretation thereof, shall be clothed with scarlet (PURPLE=THE COLOR OF ROYALTY), and have a chain of gold about his neck, and shall be the third ruler in the kingdom (HE WOULD BE RESPONSIBLE FOR THE THIRD KINGDOM)."

5:8  Then came in all the king's wise men: but they could not read the writing, nor make known to the king the interpretation thereof.

5:9  Then was king Belshazzar greatly troubled, and his countenance was changed in him, and his lords were astonied.

HE DID NOT HAVE A GOOD DAY.

5:10 Now the queen (QUEEN MOTHER = NITOCRIS, NEBUCHADNEZZAR'S DAUGHTER IN LAW) by reason of the words of the king and his lords cane into the banquet house: and the queen spake and said, "O king, live forever: let not thy thoughts trouble thee, nor let thy countenance be changed:

5:11  There is a man in thy kingdom, in whom is the spirit of the holy gods; and in the days of thy father (GRANDFATHER) light and understanding and wisdom, like the wisdom of the gods, was found in him; whom the king Nebuchadnezzar thy father, the king, I say, thy father, made master of the magicians, astrologers, Chaldeans, and soothsayers;

5:12  Forasmuch as an excellent spirit, and knowledge, and understanding, interpreting of dreams, and shewing of hard sentences, and dissolving of doubts, were found in the same Daniel, whom the king named Belteshazzar: now let Daniel be called, and he will shew the interpretation."

5:13  Then was Daniel brought in before the king. And the king spake and said unto Daniel, "Art thou that Daniel, which art of the children of the captivity of Judah (SHOWING THAT THE KING HAD NO PERSONAL KNOWLEDGE OF DANIEL, OR HAD DISREGARDED HIM), whom the king my father (GRANDFATHER) brought out of Jewry (THERE IS NOT SUCH A WORD IN THE TEXTS. IT'S JUDAH).

5:14  I have ever heard of thee, that the spirit of the gods is in thee, and that light and understanding and excellent wisdom is found in thee.

DON'T MISS THE INTERPRETATION OF THE DREAM IN PART TWO.

GOD BLESS

THE BOOK OF DANIEL (CHAPTER 4)

 

IN THIS CHAPTER WE ARE GOING TO SEE NEBUCHADNEZZAR'S DREAM OF THE GREAT TREE.

DANIEL IN THE HEBREW MEANS GOD IS MY JUDGE, OR GOD WILL JUDGE. HE WAS FROM THE ROYAL SEED OF JUDAH, AND HIS ENTIRE PROPHECY WAS GIVEN IN THE CAPTIVITY OF THE KING OF BABYLON. NEBUCHADNEZZAR WAS ONLY A TYPE AND SETS FORTH OF WHAT SHALL HAPPEN UNDER THE REIGN OF THE KING OF BABYLON (SATAN) IN THE END GENERATION.

Daniel 4:1  Nebuchadnezzar the king, unto all the people, the nations, and languages, that dwell in all the earth; "Peace be multiplied unto you.

THE FALSE CHRIST OF THE END TIMES WILL BE COMING PEACEFULLY (8:25).

4:2  I thought it good to shew the signs and wonders (ASTONISHING THINGS) that the HIGH God had wrought toward me.

4:3  How great are His signs ! and how mighty are His wonders ! His kingdom is an everlasting kingdom, and His dominion is from generation to generation.

4:4  I Nebuchadnezzar was at rest in mine house, and flourishing in my palace:

4:5  I saw a dream which made me afraid, and the thoughts upon my bed and the visions of my head troubled me.

HE DID NOT UNDERSTAND IT.

4:6  Therefore made I a decree to bring in all the wise men of Babylon before me (PROBABLY DONE FROM MOTIVES OF STATE POLICY, OR ACTING ON DANIEL'S OWN ADVICE), that they might make known unto me the interpretation of the dream.

4:7  Then came in the magicians, the astrologers, the Chaldeans, and the soothsayers (HIS RELIGIOUS COMMUNITY): and I told the dream before them; but they did not make known unto me the interpretation thereof.

4:8  But at the last Daniel came in before me, whoso name was Belteshazzar (O BEL PROTECT HIM), according to the name of my god, and in whom is the spirit of the holy gods: and before him I told the dream, saying,

4:9  'O Belteshazzar, master of the magicians (DANIEL STILL HELD THE POSITION GIVEN HIM IN 2:48), because I know that the spirit of the holy gods is in thee, and no secret troubleth thee, tell me the visions of my dream that I have seen, and the interpretation thereof.

4:10  Thus were the visions of mine head in my bed; I saw, and behold a tree in the midst of the earth, and the height thereof was great.

TREES ARE SYMBOLIC OF MEN.

THE TWO TREES IN THE GARDEN OF EDEN: THE TREE OF LIFE (CHRIST), AND THE TREE OF THE KNOWLEDGE OF GOOD AND EVIL.

GOD USES SYMBOLISM TO BRING FORTH HIS MESSAGE.

4:11  The tree grew, and was strong, and the height thereof reached unto heaven, and the sight thereof to the end of all the earth:

4:12  The leaves thereof were fair, and the fruit thereof much, and in it was meat for all: the beasts of the field had shadow under it, and the fowls of the heaven dwelt in the boughs thereof, and all flesh was fed of it.

THE TREE IS NEBUCHADNEZZAR, BUT IN THE FUTURE IS THE FALSE CHRIST WHO COMES PROSPEROUSLY.

4:13  I saw in the visions of my head upon my bed, and behold, a watcher (A CHALDEE NAME FOR AN ANGELIC BEING, WATCHING OVER THE AFFAIRS OF MEN) and an holy one (AN HOLY ANGEL) came down from heaven;

4:14  He cried aloud, and said thus, 'Hew down the tree, and cut off his branches, shake off his leaves, and scatter his fruit: let the beasts get away from under it, and the fowls from his branches:

THE TREE WAS NEBUCHADNEZZAR AND SATAN WHEN HE WAS ALLOWED TO WALK THE EARTH UNTIL CHRIST STOPPED IT.

4:15  Nevertheless leave the stump of his roots in the earth, even with a band of iron and brass (SATAN'S CONTROL=Rev. 9:11), in the tender grass of the field; and let it be wet with the dew of heaven, and let his portion be with the beasts in the grass of the earth (SATAN IS IN HEAVEN= REV. 12:7):

4:16  Let his heart be changed from man's and let a beast's heart be given unto him; and let seven times pass over him (4 YEARS).

THE FIGURE HERE CHANGES FROM A TREE TO THAT OF A BEAST, MENTIONED IN VERSE 15.

4:17  This matter is by the decree of the watchers (ANGELS), and the demand (MANDATE) by the word of the holy ones: to the intent that the living may know that the MOST HIGH ruleth in the kingdom of men, and giveth it to whomsoever He will, and setteth up over it the basest (LOWEST) of men.'

4:18  This dream I king Nebuchadnezzar have seen. Now thou, O Belteshazzar, declare the interpretation thereof, forasmuch as all the wise men of my kingdom are not able to make known unto me the interpretation: but thou art able; for the spirit of the holy gods is in thee.'

NEBUCHADNEZZAR WOULD HAVE GIVEN A DISEASE.

4:19  Then Daniel, whose name was Belteshazzar, was astonied for one hour (FUTURE= ONE HOUR WITH THE BEAST= REV. 17), and his thoughts troubled him. The king spake, and said, 'Belteshazzar, let not the dream, or the interpretation thereof, trouble thee.' Belteshazzar answered and said, 'My lord, the dream be to them that hate thee, and the interpretation thereof to thine enemies.

4:20  The tree that thou sawest, which grew, and was strong, whose height reached unto the heaven, and the sight thereof to all the earth;

HE IS IN BOTH PLACES.

4:21  Whose leaves were fair, and the fruit thereof much, and in it was meat for all; under which the beasts of the field dwelt, and upon whose branches the fowls of the heaven had their habitation:

IT FED EVERYONE.

SATAN WILL BRING A FAKE PEACE IN THE NEAR FUTURE.

4:22  It is thou, O king, that art grown and become strong: for thy greatness is grown, and reacheth unto heaven, and thy dominion to the end of the earth.

THIS IS GOING TO BE IN THE END.

4:23  And whereas the king saw a watcher and an holy one coming down from heaven, and saying, Hew the tree down, and destroy it; yet leave the stump of the roots thereof in the earth, even with a band of iron and brass, in the tender grass of the field; and let it be wet with the dew of heaven, and let his portion be with the beasts of the field, till seven times pass over him;

SEVEN TIMES= 4 YEARS HISTORICALLY. 

NUMBER # 4 IS THE NUMBER  GOD COMMUNICATES WITH YOU, IN BIBLICAL NUMERICS.

4:24  This is the interpretation, O king, and this is the decree of the MOST HIGH, which is come upon my lord the king:

THIS IS WHAT IS GOING TO HAPPEN TO YOU.

4:25  That they shall drive thee from men, and thy dwelling shall be with the beasts of the field, and they shall make thee to eat grass as oxen, and they shall wet thee with the dew of heaven, and seven times shall pass over thee, till thou know that the MOST HIGH ruleth in the kingdom of men, and giveth it to whomsoever He will (HE PROMISED THE KINGDOM OF HEAVEN TO US).

THE MENTAL DISEASE OF NEBUCHADNEZZAR IS RARE. IT IS CALLED LYCANTHROPY (FROM THE GREEK= LUKOS= A WOLF, AND ANTHROPOS= A MAN), BECAUSE THE MAN IMAGINES HIMSELF TO BE A WOLF, OR SOME OTHER ANIMAL.

4:26  And whereas they commanded to leave the stump of the tree roots; thy kingdom shall be sure unto thee, after that thou shalt have known that the heavens do rule.

NEBUCHADNEZZAR WILL BE CONVERTED AFTER HIS DISEASE.

4:27 Wherefore, O king, let my counsel be acceptable unto thee, and break off thy sins by righteousness (RIGHTEOUSNESS NEVER SIGNIFIES ALMS OR ALMGIVING), and thine iniquities by shewing mercy to the poor (CAPTIVES); if it may be a lengthening of thy tranquility.'

YOUR PEACEFULNESS WILL CONTINUE IF YOU REPENT.

4:28  All this came upon the king Nebuchadnezzar.

4:29  At the end of twelve months he walked in the palace of the kingdom of Babylon.

4:30  The king spake, and said, 'not this great Babylon, that I have built for the house of the kingdom (THE ROYAL PALACE) by the might (GOD'S MIGHT, NOT HIS) of my power, and for the honor of my majesty?'

HE DID NOT GIVE CREDIT TO GOD.

4:31  While the word was in the king's mouth, there fell a voice from heaven, saying, 'O king Nebuchadnezzar, to thee it is spoken; The kingdom is departed from thee.

THERE ARE CONSEQUENSES IF YOU DON'T GIVE GOD THE CREDIT FOR ALL YOUR BLESSINGS. 

4:32  And they shall drive thee from men, and thy dwelling shall be with the beast of the field: they shall make thee to eat grass as oxen, and seven times (4 YEARS) shall pass over thee, until thou know that the MOST HIGH ruleth in the kingdom of men, and giveth it to whomsoever He will.'

4:33  The same hour was the thing fulfilled upon Nebuchadnezzar: and he was driven from men, and did eat grass as oxen, and his body was wet with the dew of heaven, till his hairs were grown like eagles' feathers, and his nails like birds' claws.

SATAN WILL BE PLAYING THE ROLE OF AN EAGLE IN REV. 12.

4:34  And at the end of the days I Nebuchadnezzar lifted up mine eyes unto heaven, and mine understanding returned unto me, and I blessed the MOST HIGH, and I praised and honored Him That liveth forever, Whose dominion is an everlasting dominion, and His kingdom is from generation to generation:

 A GREAT CHANGE HAS HAPPENED HERE; NEBUCHADNEZZAR IS CONVERTED.

4:35  And all the inhabitants of the earth as reputed as nothing: and He doeth according to His will in the army of heaven, and among the inhabitants of the earth: none can stay His hand, or say unto Him, 'doest Thou?' 

YOU DON'T QUESTION GOD; HE DOES WHATSOEVER HE PLEASES.

4:36  At the same time my reason returned me; and for the glory of my kingdom, mine  and brightness returned unto me; and my counsellors and my lords sought unto me; and I was established in my kingdom, excellent majesty was added unto me.

4:37  Now I Nebuchadnezzar praise and extol and honor the King of heaven, all Whose works are truth, and His ways judgment: those that walk in pride He is able to abase (PUT YOU DOWN)."

GOD BLESS

THE BOOK OF DANIEL (CHAPTER THREE)

 

                                 DANIEL'S COMPANIONS AND THE FIERY FURNACE.

Daniel 3:1  Nebuchadnezzar the king made an image of gold, whose height was threescore cubits, and the breadth thereof six cubits (666): he set it up in the plain of Dura (12 miles SOUTHEAST OF BABYLON).

HE WAS PROUD OF HIMSELF WITH ALL THAT GOLD THAT HE SET AN IMAGE TO WORSHIP. THE IMAGE WAS NOT OF A HUMAN BEING. THE HEIGHT AND BREADTH ARE OUT OF ALL PROPORTION FOR THIS; THE FORMER BEING ONE TO TEN INSTEAD OF ONE TO SIX. 

THIS IS ONLY A TYPE FOR THE IMAGE IN THE BOOK OF REVELATION. 

3:2  Then Nebuchadnezzar the king sent to gather together the princes, the governors, and the captains, the judges, the treasurers, the counselors, the sheriffs, and all the rulers of the provinces, to come to the dedication of the image which Nebuchadnezzar the king had set up.

THIS WOULD HARDLY HAVE TAKEN PLACE TILL AFTER THE CAMPAIGN REFERRED TO IN NOTE ON "CAME" (1:1). IT WAS THEREFORE PROBABLY HELD ABOUT 475 B.C., IN DANIEL'S 38TH YEAR, 20 YEARS AFTER NEBUCHADNEZZAR'S DREAM OF HIMSELF, THE "HEAD OF GOLD" (CHAPTER 2).

FOR THE FUTURE SENSE IT REFERS TO THE POLITICAL BEAST SYSTEM OF REV. 13. 

3:3  Then the princes, the governors, and captains, the judges, the treasurers, the counselors, the sheriffs, and all the rulers of all provinces, were gathered together unto the dedication of the image that Nebuchadnezzar the king had set up; and they stood before the image that Nebuchadnezzar had set up; and they stood before the image that Nebuchadnezzar had set up.

3:4  Then an herald cried aloud, "To you it is commanded, O people, nations, and languages,

3:5  That at what time ye hear the sound of the cornet, flute, harp, sackbut, psaltery, dulcimer, and all kinds of music, ye fall down and worship the golden image that Nebuchadnezzar the king hath set up:

3:6  And whoso falleth not down and worshippeth shall the same hour be cast into the midst of a burning fiery furnace."

3:7  Therefore at that time, when all the people heard the sound of the cornet, flute, harp, sackbut, psaltery, and all kinds of music, all the people, the nations, and the languages, fell down and worshipped the golden image that Nebuchadnezzar the king had set up.

3:8  Wherefore at that time certain Chaldeans came near, and accused the Jews.

3:9  They spake and said to the king Nebuchadnezzar, "O king live forever.

3:10  Thou, O king, hast made a decree, that every man that shall hear the sound of the cornet, flute, harp, sackbut, psaltery, and dulcimer, and all kinds of music, shall fall down and worship the golden image:

OFFICERS OF THE POLITICAL FIELD (REV. 13).

SPIRITUALLY IT WILL BE WORSE IN THE FUTURE.

3:11  And whoso falleth not down and worshippeth, that he should be cast into the midst of a burning fiery furnace.

3:12  There are certain Jews whom thou hast set over the affairs of the province of Babylon, Shadrach, Meshach, and Abed-nego; these men, O king, have not regarded thee: they serve not thy gods, nor worship the golden image which thou hast set up."

3:13  Then Nebuchadnezzar in his rage and fury commanded to bring Shadrach, Meshach, and Abed-nego. Then they brought these men before the king.

3:14  Nebuchadnezzar spake and said unto them, "Is it true, O Shadrach, Meshach, and Abed-nego, do not ye serve my gods, nor worship the golden image which I have set up ?

THE HEAD OF THAT IMAGE WAS SYMBOLIC OF HIM. HE THOUGHT HE WAS PRETTY SPECIAL.

3:15  Now if ye be ready that at what time ye hear the sound of the cornet, flute, harp, sackbut, psaltery, and dulcimer, and all kinds of music, ye fall down and worship the image which I have made; well: but if ye worship not , ye shall be cast the same hour into the midst of a burning fiery furnace; and who is that God that shall deliver you out of my hands ?"

GOD DOES TAKE CARE OF HIS OWN.

3:16  Shadrach, Meshach, and Abed-nego, answered and said to the king, "O Nebuchadnezzar, we are not careful to answer thee in this matter.

IT IS NOT NESECCARY TO ANSWER YOU IN THIS MATTER.

3:17  If it be so, our God Whom we serve is able to deliver us from the burning fiery furnace, and He will deliver us out of thine hand, O king.

THEY HAD AN AMAZING FAITH IN GOD.

3:18  But if not, be it known unto thee, O king, that we will not serve thy gods, nor worship the golden image which thou hast set up."

3:19  Then was Nebuchadnezzar full of fury, and the form of his visage was changed against Shadrach, Meshach, and Abed-nego: therefore he spake, and commanded that they should heat the furnace one seven times more than it was wont to be heated.

3:20  And he commanded the most mighty men that were in his army to bind Shadrach, Meshach, and Abed-nego, and to cast them into the burning fiery furnace.

3:21  Then these men were bound in their coats, their hosen, and their hats, and their other garments, and were cast into the midst of the burning fiery furnace.

THE GOSPEL ARMOR PROTECTS US FROM THE FIERY DARTS OF SATAN.

3:22  Therefore because the king's commandment was urgent, and the furnace exceeding hot, the flame of the fire slew those men that took up Shadrach, Meshach, and Abed-nego.

GOD ALWAYS TAKES CARE OF HIS OWN.

HE KILLED THOSE MEN WHEN  WHEN THEY GOT CLOSE TO THE DOOR.

3:23  And these three men, Shadrach, Meshach, and Abed-nego, fell down bound into the midst of the burning fiery furnace.

3:24  Then Nebuchadnezzar the king was astonied, and rose up in haste, and spake, and said unto his counselors, "Did not we cast three men bound into the mist of the fire?" They answered and said unto the king, "True, O king."

3:25 He answered and said, "Lo, I see four men loose (LOOSE FORM THE WICKEDNESS OF THIS WORLD), walking in the midst of the fire, and they have no hurt; and the form of the fourth is like the son of God."

CHRIST WAS THERE WITH THEM.

WE HAVE NOTHING TO WORRY ABOUT AT THE END TIMES. HE WILL DELIVER US OF ALL EVIL. THEY WERE DELIVERED BY GOD.

3:26  Then Nebuchadnezzar came near to the mouth of the burning fiery furnace, and spake, and said, "Shadrach, Meshach, and Abed-nego, ye servants of the most high God, come forth, and come hither." Then  Shadrach, Meshach, and Abed-nego, came forth of the midst of the fire.

3:27  And the princes, governors, and captains, and the king's counsellors, bein, and delivered His servants that trusted in Him, and have changed the king's word, and yielded their bodies, that they might not serve nor worship any god, except their own God.g gathered together, saw these men, upon whose bodies the fire had no power, nor was an hair of their head singed, neither were their coats changed, nor the smell of fire had passed on them.

NOT EVEN ONE HAIR ON THEIR HEAD OR BURNED, AND THEIR CLOTHES DID NOT EVEN SMELL OF SMOKE.

MAKE A NOTE OF LUKE 21:12-18.

3:28  Then Nebuchadnezzar spake, and said, "Blessed be the God of Shadrach, Meshach, and Abed-nego, Who hath sent His angel, and delivered His servants that trusted in Him, and have changed the king's word, and yielded their bodies, that they might not serve nor worship any god, except their own God.  

3:29  Therefore I make a decree, That every people, nation, and language, which speak anything amiss against the God of Shadrach, Meshach, and Abed-nego, shall be cut in pieces, and their houses shall be made a dunghill: because there is no other God that can deliver after this sort."

3:30  Then the king promoted (PROSPERED) Shadrach, Meshach, and Abed-nego, in the province of Babylon.

NEBUCHADNEZZAR IS ONLY A TYPE.

THE FALSE CHRIST WILL PROSPER THE ONES WHO LOVE HIM. HE WILL BRING THE FAKE PEACE TO THE WORLD.

GOD BLESS

THE BOOK OF DANIEL (CHAPTER TWO---PART TWO)

 

CONTINUING WITH THE BOOK OF DANIEL, CHAPTER TWO, PART TWO.

NEBUCHADNEZZAR, THE KING OF BABYLON HAD A DREAM AND NO ONE FROM HIS RELIGIOUS COMMUNITY COULD INTERPRET.

GOD GAVE DANIEL THE GIFT IN INTERPRETING DREAMS AND VISIONS, AND HE WAS THE ONLY ONE WHO COULD INTERPRET THE KING'S DREAM. THE KING ORDERED THE EXECUTION OF HIS WISE MEN BECAUSE THEY WERE NOT ABLE TO INTERPRET THE KING'S DREAM. HOWEVER, DANIEL INTERVENED SO THEY WEREN'T KILLED.

Daniel 2:23 I thank Thee, and praise Thee, O Thou God of my fathers, Who hast given me wisdom and might, and hast made known unto me now what we desired of Thee: for Thou hast now made known unto us the king's matter." 

GOD GAVE HIM THAT GIFT AND HE WENT STRAIGHT TO GOD TO ASK HIM TO INTERPRET THE DREAM. HE TRUSTED HIM.

2:24  Therefore Daniel went in unto Arioch, whom the king had ordained to destroy the wise men of Babylon: he went and said thus unto him: "Destroy not the wise men of Babylon: bring me in before the king, and I will shew unto the king the interpretation."

2:25  Then Arioch brought in Daniel before the king in haste, and said thus unto him, "I have found a man of the captives of Judah, that will make known unto the king the interpretation."

2:26  The king answered and said to Daniel, whose name was Belteshazzar (O BEL PROTECT HIS LIFE), "Art thou able to make known unto me the dream which I have seen, and the interpretation thereof ?"

2:27  Daniel answered in the presence of the king, and said, "The secret which the king hath demanded cannot the wise men, the astrologers, the magicians, the soothsayers, shew unto the king;

2:28  But there is a God in heaven That revealeth secrets, and maketh known to the king Nebuchadnezzar what shall be in the latter days. Thy dream, and the visions of thy head upon thy bed, are these;

DANIEL WAS ALSO WITNESSING TO NEBUCHADNEZZAR. ONLY THE TRUE GOD OF HEAVEN CAN INTERPRET DREAMS.

THIS DREAM HAD TO DO WITH THE LATTER DAYS.

2:29  As for thee, O king, thy thoughts came into thy mind upon thy bed, what should come to pass hereafter: and He That revealeth secrets maketh known to thee what shall come to pass.

HE LETS HIM KNOW THAT IT WAS GOD WHO WAS SPEAKING, NOT HIM.

2:30  But as for me, this secret is not revealed to me for any wisdom that I have more than any living, but for their sakes that shall make known the interpretation to the king, and that thou mightest know the thoughts of thy heart.

2:31  Thou, O king, sawest, and behold a great image, whose brightness was excellent, stood before thee; and the form thereof was terrible.

THE ONE WORLD SYSTEM SET UP IN 4 PARTS.

2:32  This image's head was of fine gold, his breast and his arms of silver, his belly and his thighs of brass.

1. THE HEAD= BABYLON.

THE 1ST KING IS NEBUCHADNEZZAR ; THE 2ND IS SATAN.

THESE ARE THE  4 STAGES OF SATAN'S RULE; IT BEGINS WITH THE HEAD FOR NEBUCHADNEZZAR WAS THE HEAD OF GOLD. THE KING OF BABYLON NEBUCHADNEZZAR IS ONLY A TYPE. THE 2ND KING OF BAYLON IS SATAN, THE PRINCE OF DARKNESS.

THE MOST PRECIOUS METAL (GOLD), AND THE HIGHEST SPECIFIC GRAVITY WAS AT THE TOP, DECREASING WITH ITS DESCENT.

2. CHEST= MEDO-PERSIA.

3. BELLY= GREECE

2:33  His legs of iron, his feet part of iron and part of clay.

4. IRON LEGS= ROME.

5. FEET MIXED WITH IRON AND CLAY=ARABS. THEY CONTROL THE DOME TODAY.

2:34  Thou sawest till that a stone (CHRIST) was cut out without hands (AN EXPRESSION ALWAYS EMPHASISING THE ABSENCE OF ALL HUMAN INSTRUMENTALITY AND THE ACT OF GOD ALONE), which smote the image upon his feet that were of iron and clay, and brake them to pieces.

THE FIFTH KINGDOM BROKE INTO PIECES.

2:35  Then was the iron, the clay, the brass, the silver, and the gold, broken to pieces together (AS UNITED AT THE TIME OF THE END (FORMING THE 6TH POWER), THE KINGDOM OF THE BEAST), and became like the chaff of the summer threshing floors; and the wind (HOLY SPIRIT) carried them away, that no place was found for them: and the stone that smote the image became a great mountain (NATION), and filled the whole earth.

6. THE GOVERNMENTAL SYSTEM OF THE BEAST.

7. SATAN.

THE 6TH IS GOING TO TAKE OVER; THE 7TH WILL COME TO FIX THINGS.

8. HIS DEATH.

2:36  This is the dream; and we will tell the interpretation thereof before the king.

2:37  Thou, O king, art a king of kings: for the God of heaven hath given thee a kingdom, power, and strength, and glory.

GOD HAS GIVEN HIM ALL THESE BLESSINGS. LATER ON, NEBUCHADNEZZAR WILL CONVERT AND HE WILL SERVE THE TRUE GOD.

THE O.T. IS NOT ONLY PROPHECY OF THE END TIMES, BUT ALSO HISTORY OF YAHAVEH'S PEOPLE, ISRAEL; AND OTHER NATIONS ARE REFERRED TO ONLY AS, AND SO FAR AS, THEY COME INTO CONNECTION WITH ISRAEL. BABYLON WAS THE MOST ANCIENT OF KINGDOMS (GEN. 10:10). NEBUCHADNEZZAR WAS NOT THE FIRST KING (DEUT. 32:8); BUT HE WAS THE "HEAD" OR BEGINNING OF GENTILE DOMINION IN THE EARTH WHEN ISRAEL HAD BEEN "REMOVED" (ACCORDING TO JER. 15:4, 24:9, 29:18). THESE SUCCESSIVE KINGDOMS AS RECKONED ONLY AS THEY OBTAINED POSSESSION OF JERUSALEM. THEY EXISTED BEFORE THAT; AND EACH, IN TURN, WAS ABSORBED IN THE ONE THAT SUCCEEDED.

2:38  And wheresoever the children of men dwell, the beasts of the field and the fowls of the heaven hath He given into thine hand, and hath made thee ruler over them all. Thou art this head of gold.

YOU HAVE POWER OVER THEM.

THE HEAD IS THE FIRST OF THE FIVE KINGDOMS.

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.

THE KINGDOM OF MEDO-PERSIA, WHICH SUCCEEDED BABYLON BY OCCUPYING JERUSALEM (II CHR. 36:22).

INFERIOR= AS SILVER IS INFERIOR TO GOLD, IN VALUE AND IN SPECIFIC GRAVITY, SO THE 2ND KINGDOM WAS INFERIOR TO THE 1ST. THE MEDO-PERSIA WAS A GOVERNMENT BY LAW WHICH WAS SUPERIOR TO THE KING.

THE THIRD KINGDOM WAS INFERIOR, AS BEING LESS DESPOTIC.

2:40  And the fourth kingdom shall be strong (HARD AS IRON IN THE HEBREW. THE POWER OF ROME) as iron: forasmuch as iron breaketh in pieces and subdueth all things: and as iron that breaketh all these, shall it break in pieces and bruise.

THE 4TH KINGDOM IS ROME. OBSERVE THAT IT DOES NOT SAY THERE WERE "FOUR, AND NO MORE", AS ALLEGED; BUT THE FOURTH. THE POWER WHICH WAS TO SUCCEED ROME IS THE MOHAMMEDAN POWER WHICH CONTROL THE DOME TODAY.

2:41  And whereas thou sawest the feet and toes, part of potters' clay, and part of iron, the kingdom shall be divided; but there shall be in it of the strength of the iron, forasmuch as thou sawest the iron mixed with miry (MUDDY) clay.

IRON AND CLAY CANNOT MIX.

THIS IS THE POLITICAL SYSTEM OF REV. 13.

2:42  And as the toes of the feet were part of iron, and part of clay, so the kingdom shall be partly strong, and partly broken.

THIS SYSTEM WILL BE VERY FRAGILE.

2:43  And whereas thou sawest iron mixed with miry clay, they shall mingle themselves with the seed of men: but they shall not cleave one to another, even as iron is not mixed with clay.

GOD'S CHILDREN WILL NOT MIX.

THE ONE WORLD SYSTEM BEEN WOVEN TOGETHER; THE WEAVERS STAY BUSY AT THE TASK. WARSAW PACK AND NATO IS BEEN WOVEN TO ONE FORCE. SATAN AND CHRIST (THE FOLLOWERS OF THOSE TWO) CAN NEVER BE WOVEN TOGETHER IN ONE BLANKET. THIS IS WHY THE IRON AND THE CLAY CANNOT MIX.

GEN. 25 STATES THAT TWO NATIONS ARE IN HER WOMB : UNITED STATES---RUSSIA.

2:44  And in the days of these kings shall the God of heaven set up a kingdom, which shall never be destroyed: and the kingdom shall not be left to other people, but it shall break in pieces and consume all these kingdoms, and it shall stand forever.

THESE KINGS REPRESENTED BY THE 10 TOES (10 LEADERS OF THE ONE WORLD SYSTEM).

THIS IS THE END OF THEIR TIME; THAT IS THE MOMENT OF THE GREAT STONE (CHRIST) WHICH WAS REJECTED BY THE WORLD BUILDERS.

2:45  Forasmuch as thou sawest that the stone was cut out of the mountain without hands, and that it brake in pieces the iron, the brass, the clay, the silver, and the gold; the great God hath made known to the king what shall come to pass hereafter: and the dream is certain, and the interpretation thereof sure:

GOD IS BRINGING IN TO PASS.

2:46  Then the king Nebuchadnezzar fell upon his face, and worshipped Daniel, and commanded that they should offer an oblation (A GIFT OFFERING)and sweet odors to him.

2:47  The king answered to Daniel, and said, "Of a truth it is, that your God is a God of gods, and a Lord of kings, and a Revealer of secrets (DREAMS), seeing thou couldest reveal this secret."

2:48  Then the king made Daniel a great man, and gave him many great gifts, and made him ruler over the whole province of Babylon, , and chief of the governors over all the wise men of Babylon.

2:49  Then Daniel requested of the king, and he set Shadrach, Meshach, and Abed-nego, over  the affairs of the province of Babylon: but Daniel sat in the gate of the king.

THE GATE WAS THE JUDGMENT PLACE OF NEBUCHADNEZZAR. HE ALSO TRAVELLED. HE WAS NOT WITH THE OTHER THREE.

GOD BLESS
