Book Of Daniel Prophecy Stating The Future Wars

By Steven Carter


Daniel introduces some very interesting prophecies regarding future kings and leaders that waged big wars to conquer vast territories. In the last few chapters, the archangel Gabriel gave him these visions which he would write about in the book of Daniel Prophecy. To know more about these prophecies, check out the summary of events that happened.

Now, the visions of war are found somewhere in chapters ten, eleven, and twelve, all stating about the wars that may lead up to the final end times. Now, when one would read the vision, he or she would most likely draw some similarities to some prophecies from the book of Revelation. However, there are many other things in this book that have details not written in Revelations.

Chapter ten already predicted the rise of a prince of Persia that would go to war against a supernatural being. The thing about this chapter is that the supernatural being was the one who told Daniel that he is at war with the prince of Persia along with Michael the Archangel. According to the chapter, Archangel Gabriel gave the visions at the third year of Cyrus.

Now, the next chapter would then state the prediction of another war but this time with the prince of Greece. This actually refers to the Macedonia Greece war that was staged by the conqueror Alexander the Great. Accurately, this also depicts the conquests of the great conqueror as well as his downfall giving rise to the next empire.

Next, the vision also showed the rise of the huge Roman Empire that happened sometime during sixty four BC up to seventy AD. This was followed by the fall of Jerusalem when Pompey invaded which was sometime in sixty three BC. Lastly, the angel predicted the death of yet again one of the big kings that would rule the world which is none other than the great Julius Caesar.

The final chapter has some versatility when it comes to interpretation as other researchers would interpret it as the birth and death of Christ. It could be interpreted as the death and resurrection of the Messiah. This shows that after the resurrection of Christ, there was a building of the New Kingdom with many trials before that.

Another interpretation of it, which is popular in Christian millennialism, would be the depiction of the ends times and the rebuilding of modern Israel. In fact, the last few chapters may even have somehow depicted the rise of the Antichrist who was mentioned in the book of revelations. Of these, the last verse also mentions the career of the Antichrist and the fall.

What makes this chapter extremely interesting is that there are so many possible messages that can be deciphered from the book. Another very remarkable thing about these chapters is that they predicted the big wars from big empires even before they happened such as the Macedonia Greek war and more. If one would want to interpret the last chapter as the end of times, then it would make things even more interesting because then there would be more specific details of what to expect leading up to the predictions stated in Revelations.
