Daniel 7:26

Arthur Peake's Commentary on the Bible - Daniel 7:1-28

Daniel 7. The Vision of the Four Beasts.— From this point onwards the Book becomes purely apocalyptic. The vision of the four beasts is parallel to the vision of the image in Daniel 2. The beasts rise out of the sea. The first is a lion with eagle’ s wings, the second a bear, the third a leopard, the fourth a nameless and terrible creature with ten horns. Among the ten horns of the fourth beast there arises another “ little horn” with the eyes of a man, which destroys three of the other... read more

Preacher's Complete Homiletical Commentary - Daniel 7:26

HOMILETICSSECT. XXV.—THE JUDGMENT OF THE BEAST AND THE LITTLE HORN (Chap. Daniel 7:9-12; Daniel 7:26)Hitherto we have not met with much difficulty in the way of interpretation. Little room has been left either for doubt or hesitation. The case is somewhat different now. We approach the region of unfulfilled prophecy, naturally more difficult of interpretation, and leaving more room for mistake and difference of opinion. The field is interesting and inviting, but demands caution in its... read more

Sermon Bible Commentary - Daniel 7:1-28

Daniel 7:1-28 The principles which underlie this prophecy are at once profoundly suggestive and exceedingly important. I. Foremost among them we find the terribly significant truth that earthly power in and of itself degenerates into brutality. The appropriate symbol of a great empire is a wild beast. II. Observe that the tendency of this brutality is to increase. The four beasts that Daniel saw came in this order; first the lion, then the bear, then the panther, then that composite, unnamed,... read more

Scofield's Reference Notes - Daniel 7:26

and they shall The end of Gentile world-power. (1) In the beast vision of Daniel 7:0. the fourth beast is declared to be "the fourth kingdom," i.e. the Roman empire, the "iron" kingdom of Daniel 2:0. The "ten horns" upon the fourth beast (Roman empire), Daniel 7:7 are declared to be "ten kings that shall arise" (Daniel 7:24) answering to the ten toes of the image vision of Daniel 2:0. The ten kingdoms, covering the regions formerly ruled by Rome, will constitute, therefore, the form in which... read more

Chuck Smith Bible Commentary - Daniel 7:1-28

Chapter 7Now at this point we come to, more or less, the end of the historic part of the book of Daniel. And beginning with chapter 7, we are now gonna go back and deal with visions that Daniel had during previous years. In other words, as we go to chapter 7, this particular vision came to Daniel in the first year that Belshazzar was king. You see, our story has taken us out to the end of Daniel's life during the reigns of Darius and Cyrus, the Medo-Persian kings. But now going back, we're... read more

Sutcliffe's Commentary on the Old and New Testaments - Daniel 7:1-28

Daniel 7:1 . In the first year of Belshazzar. The book of Daniel is divided into two parts; the first six chapters being historic, and the latter prophetic. This dream of Daniel’s has a connection with that which regarded Nebuchadnezzar, in Daniel 2:15; Daniel 2:26. Both those princes were proud and wicked men; yet God had mercy on them and on their people, and was graciously pleased to give them admonition by special revelations of future times. Daniel dreamed of the four beasts, but the... read more

Daniel 7:4-28And four great beasts came up from the sea.The Four BeastsI. THE ELEMENT OUT OF WHICH THE WORLD-KINGDOMS CAME INTO EXISTENCE. “Four beasts came up from the sea.” The sea, when looked at in some of its aspects, is a most fit symbol of the means by which human kingdoms without godliness have made progress in the world. 1. There is the element of treachery. The sea is at one moment calm, and apparently harmless; and the next, sending a nation into mourning by overwhelming her vessels... read more

Whedon's Commentary on the Bible - Daniel 7:26

26. See notes Daniel 7:10. This does not refer to the General Judgment, but to the punishment of Antiochus by divinely directed agents after the close of the period represented by the “time, times, and half a time.” “The ministering agents of the Most High are continually interposing in history, removing kings and setting up kings (Daniel 2:0;21), and this they will continue to do unto the end, that is, until the divine purpose is consummated. Just when this end will be and how it will be... read more
