• In Bible prophecy, we can find out more about the Greek Empire, and how it came about, by looking at Daniel chapter 7. This prophecy is similar to Nebuchadnezzar’s dream that we looked at in Daniel chapter 2, but contains further details. We read:
• Dan. 7:1   In the first year of Belshazzar king of Babylon Daniel had a dream and visions of his head upon his bed: then he wrote the dream, and told the sum of the matters. 2 Daniel spake and said, I saw in my vision by night, and, behold, the four winds of the heaven strove upon the great sea. 3 And four great beasts came up from the sea, diverse one from another. 4 The first was like a lion, and had eagle’s wings: I beheld till the wings thereof were plucked, and it was lifted up from the earth, and made stand upon the feet as a man, and a man’s heart was given to it.
