Notes

Daniel 7:19–28

Daniel requested and received more information about the fourth beast, the ten horns, and the little horn.

Daniel 7:1–28

This chapter includes a frightening vision (Daniel 7:2–14) and its explanation (7:17–27). The order of kingdoms reminds us of Nebuchadnezzar’s dream about forty-five years earlier (Daniel 2:1–45).
