"Nebuchadnezzar's Dream Daniel Interprets"
Daniel 2:1-30 Tells us Nebuchadnezzar had a dream and couldn't remember the dream and was going to kill all the wise men of Babylon (Iraq) because no one could reveal his dream to him. Daniel interprets his dream and saves all the lives of the wise men. Daniel was blessed by Nebuchadnezzar and made ruler over whole province or Babylon.
Daniel 2:31-36 Daniel describes to Nebuchadnezzar his dream
1. Head of Fine Gold,
2. Breast and Arms of Silver,
3. Belly and Thighs of Brass,
4. Legs of Iron, Feet Part Iron and Part Clay
Though sawest till a stone was cut out without hands, and smote the image on the feet and destroyed the image.
Daniel 2:37-45 Daniel interprets the dream to Nebuchadnezzar.
1st Beast
1. Head of Fine Gold,
Daniel 2:37-38 Daniel tells Nebuchadnezzar he is the head of gold
(Babylonian Empire, 606 B.C.--539 B.C., is the first beast)
2nd Beast
2. Breast and Arms of Silver,
Daniel 2:39 Daniel tells Nebuchadnezzar after him will arise a kingdom that will be inferior to him.
(Media-Persia Empire, 539 B.C.--333 B.C., is the second beast)
3rd Beast
3. Belly and Thighs of Brass,
Daniel 2:39 Daniel tells Nebuchadnezzar that another kingdom of brass would rule next.
(Greca ( Greece ) Empire, 333 B.C.--66 B.C. ., is the third beast)
4th Beast
4. Legs of Iron, Feet Part Iron and Part Clay
Daniel 2:40 Daniel tells Nebuchadnezzar about the fourth beast that shall rule over all the earth.
(Roman Republic 66 B.C. - 31 B.C.) (Roman Empire, 31 B.C.--1453 A. D., is the fourth beast)
4th Beast
Daniel 2:40-45 The fourth kingdom mixed iron and clay but they shall mingle with the seed of men but not cleave one to another. And in the days of these kings God of heaven will set up a Kingdom (Jesus Was Born 4 B.C., Later Crucified and began Kingdom of God) that will never be destroyed. The image will be broke in pieces by the stone (Jesus) that was cut out of the mountain (Empire) without hands.
It is important to relate to, that a mountain is an Empire at this time. Jesus was born during the Roman Empire. He was that stone, and also described in scripture that Jesus was the stone that the builders rejected and became the head of the corner and the Chief Building Stone.
Matthew 21:42 Jesus saith unto them, Did ye never read in the scriptures, The stone which the builders rejected, the same is become the head of the corner: this is the Lord's doing, and it is marvellous in our eyes?
Mark 12:10 And have ye not read this scripture; The
stone which the builders rejected is become the head of the corner:
Luke 20:17 And he beheld them, and said, What is this then that is written, The
stone which the builders rejected, the same is become the head of the corner?
We know their are 4 Beast and 4 Empires Daniel has described, and also the empire that was in Daniels Days before the Babylonian Empire, the Assyrian Empire.
