5/30/26 Daniel 7: The 4th Beast & the Ten Horns
7 “After that, in my vision at night I looked, and there before me was a fourth beast—terrifying and frightening and very powerful. It had large iron teeth; it crushed and devoured its victims and trampled underfoot whatever was left. It was different from all the former beasts, and it had ten horns.
Daniel sees something in the 4th that unlike the others he deems as terrifying & frightening which says something given what we know historically. Comparing beast four with the other 3 in way of how Daniel describes is very startling and should say a lot to us. Note that he distinguishes only the 4th beast indirect terms and not symbolism when he says very powerful. Power can be used as a means to identify authority.
The iron teeth let’s get into that obviously there’s a direct correlation there with iron and consuming as it says crushed and devoured its victims because let’s be honest that’s what teeth do. But these teeth are iron. Some say that this is a correlation with a specific empire or nation and that may not be the case it just may be Daniel’s way of saying that the teeth are incredibly strong and hard to damage. The devouring of its victims has a different connotation then what you’re probably accustomed to hearing and that once it devours they disappear. I mean because when we look at this this is a correlation with chewing your food and eating it and so this means that this 4th beast consumes the resources of the nations that it will come against and it will erase those cultures from the earth.
Let’s break this down a little bit further and get into the adjectives that Daniel utilizes here. Terrifying-obviously this is derived from the word terror in which we also get the term terrorism. The word here is emtaniy (Em-taw-nee). It is the only time this word is used to describe the Impression of dread beyond ordinary fear, marking this beast as uniquely horrible among the four. Even more compelling it is a term utilized from the Aramaic for well loaned. Well loaned also means mighty. So the mirror reputation of this beast and the might of which it devours all the stand opposed to it presents itself with a reputation because it seems insurmountable.
Terrifying is a psychological affect which dwells with fear, intimidation & is given a heightened advantage by potentially making it more ominous that it is. This is a decide warfare tactic in many forms of competition & combat because it is easier to defeat an opponent that has already considered that the opposition is greater than themselves. This could mean that the 4th beast operates in acts of terrorism for that purpose such as the religion of peace who behead those who do not give into their forced compliance & conversion command.
The new international version uses the term frightening. Well, there is correlation it is not the original word used. Again this word is aramaic and it is dchal, (deh-khal) meaning to make afraid and some aspects it is a double inference as to the amount of fear this beast causes when utilized with terrible. This final beast is the fiercest in human history. Daniel utilizes the object of fear in two different sources, first is the creative powers-relating to the governmental empires or kings and the apocalyptic beasts that produced dread through coercive strength. The second is the creator alone rightfully commands reverent fear that leads to worship and obedience found in 6:26-27.
These words are used in the original Aramaic translation but the original reads just a bit different than how it is presented in our western bibles that are translated into English. It reads like this,
“after this saw I in visions night the and behold a fourth beast 4th dreadful and terrible and strong exceedingly and teeth iron it had huge it was devouring and breaking pieces and residue the regel with its feet trampling and it was different from all beasts the were before it and horns 10 it had.”
Obviously that’s a little different than what ours is translated as. But the meaning is maintained there are just different emphasis in the original that we may overlook. The authority of which this beast operates is exceeding, what we need to note here is that in spite of that it is still consuming. For a prophecy student this means that there is no stagnation or satisfaction with what this beast already possesses. It is a machine that will not stop. Where this beast derives from & where it ends is not clear here but can be made clear with tying it into the passages in other prophecies in other books including but not limited to the book of Revelation.
I point to this beneath the feet aspect. This means it is not even close. This is a demonstration of the strength of the 4th beast. Conquering the opposition and essentially putting the throat under foot with the gun barrel or sword at the throat pointed downward. This is no stalemate this is a checkmate.
For this to occur in this age of warfare there has to be an unleashing of technology that is sovereign to the opposition it faces. We live in an age of direct energy weaponry, an age of being able to utilize control of aspects of nature against a respective target. This high tech form of conquest also includes superiority in penetrating defenses both physical & automated that is beyond the common knowledge of we the people. As patriotic as we are & as assured we may be under the current administration let us remove ourselves from the global stage & ask who or what could this machine of a 4th beast be? There are less than four countries who could fit this description & as your mind wanders on that let’s consider the final point here in Daniels statement.
V7 10 Horns. Interpretation wise horns usually represent power, in Daniel it is used to represent a wind instrument in Daniel 3, & here in 7 represents power, potentially 10 nations. Nations= is a common market.
1951 Coal & Steel treaty. established the European Coal and Steel Community (ECSC). This treaty was a significant step towards European integration after World War II, aiming to promote economic cooperation among its founding members: Belgium, France, Italy, Luxembourg, the Netherlands, and West Germany.
Then it became 15, then more. Then EU formed & from the original 10 to more than 10. Their emblem is the Tower of Babel. Which is also the shape of the headquarters known as the EU Parliament building.
The founders of the European Union used this picture of the Tower of Babel by renaissance painter Peter Bruegel on some of its posters over the years with the phrase in French “Many tongues, one voice.” David Hathaway was told by a journalist that members of the European Parliament knew what the Tower of Babel was and what it meant.
The Women on the Beast sculpture is outside the front of the building of the Council of Ministers in Europe. It has also appeared on European bank notes and currency, but at national and European level and pieces of art featuring this image can be found on the Berlin Wall and in the parliaments of Brussels and Strasbourg.
IS there a spiritual side to the vigorous UK European Referendum debate that has been ignored due to it being a proverbial “elephant in the room”?
If it was the German empires who destroyed the Roman empire in the 5th Century in Europe, physically part of Babylon came to Germany. Is there a restored Roman empire as allegedly given to the prophet Daniel in the Biblical Old Testament?
They advertised based on the Peter Breughel painting of the Tower of Babel in 1563. On the slogan on the poster it says in French “many tongues, one voice” The 12 stars on the European flag are meant to signify the ‘Crown of Mary’, ‘Queen of Heaven’ but in Babylonian culture the title ‘Queen of Heaven’ was given the title of the earthly mother of Nimrod, builder of Babylon.
‘Will EU get destroyed like blueprint?’
Did a previous Roman empire collapse because of its obsession with civil servants and dependence on its laws, structures and bureaucracy?
Was it destroyed by an accumulation of bureaucracy but the physical destruction of this empire came via the Germanic tribes of Europe but this happened in Europe, not Babylon, where all previous world empires crashed including the Greek and Mido-Persian empires?
In the Hathaway video whilst he was filming it, he says he asked a Strasbourg-born journalist if she understood the meaning of the tower. She said she did and she also confirmed that the members of the European Parliament also understood that it represented Babel from the Bible, and that the purpose of the European Union was to finish what Nimrod and the people together had failed to do some 3,500 years ago.
In Ch.2 the statute vision is represented 2 legs 10 toes, 5 east, 5 west. Roman empire countries not in common market. Egypt Ethiopia Turkey Syria Iraq Morocco Israel Jordan Islam is the reason due to accessibility. They will only surrender to an Islamic leader. As islam sweeps the world given access to isolated countries by governmental leaders who accept payoffs & orders from UN/WEF leaders can we see this beast forming now?
My belief is the ten kings represented with the ten horns are from the vision of the Club of Rome from back in 1972.
