Daniel 7:1 - Forerunner Commentary

Daniel 7:1

Vision of the Four Beasts

1 In the first year of Belshazzar king of Babylon, ^aDaniel had a dream and ^bvisions of his head while on his bed. Then he wrote down the dream, telling² the main facts.

2 Daniel spoke, saying, “I saw in my vision by night, and behold, the four winds of heaven were stirring up the Great Sea.

3 And four great beasts ^acame up from the sea, each different from the other.

4 The first was ^alike a lion, and had eagle’s wings. I watched till its wings were plucked off; and it was lifted up from the earth and made to stand on two feet like a man, and a ^bman’s heart was given to it.
