• As it is written in Amos the prophet:
• Amos 3:7 Surely the Lord GOD will do nothing, but he revealeth his secret unto his servants the prophets.
• And so, in this prophetic passage of the Holy Scriptures, the ram represents the Medo-Persian empire. Its two horns represent the Medes and the Persians, who together defeated the Babylonian Empire. Even while Belshazzar of Babylon is still king, God told his saints about world events in the future - the coming of both the Medo-Persian Empire and the Greek Empire.
