Daniel Eleven: History in Advance, Part One

The Pre-Trib Prophecy Podcast

Friends,
We'll take chapter 11 in two parts. Part one is history written in advance. Daniel is given history future in striking detail. The Glorious Man revealed to Daniel the rise of Alexander the Great and his fall, plus the breaking of Greece into four kingdoms after Alexander. Great attention is given to the kings of the South and the North as chapter 11 traces the dynasties of the Ptolemies and the Seleucids.
The entire chapter brings us forward to the typology of Antiochus Epiphanes, who would be a type of tyrant that we expect to see in the coming antichrist of the last days. Often the Bible uses historical events as typologies of things to come.
As we complete chapter 11 and get into chapter 12, we'll see God develop this typology...but transfer the characteristics of historical Antiochus to a coming leader who will emerge from a different kingdom in the days ahead.
