Notes

Daniel 7:24–25

the ten horns are ten kings: This number might refer to ten specific individuals, or it might symbolize that this kingdom lasted through the reigns of many kings (compare Revelation 13:1).
Then another king, who is the little horn (Daniel 7:21), will defy the Most High. He will oppress the holy people by:
- speaking against the Lord,
- interfering with their worship,
- trying to force them to follow his religion, and
- constantly threatening them.
a time, and times, and half a time: The text does not clearly state the length of time. However, the period of oppression for the holy people will be limited and will come to an end suddenly and unexpectedly.

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).
