📚 About this Book
✦ Chapter Overview

In Daniel chapter 10 the prophet Daniel is left alone while his friends are taken to the king’s banquet. A mysterious vision unfolds describing a great horn and a fourth beast, and a fourth wind blowing from the east, which is interpreted as the coming of a divine power that will defeat the nations. The chapter emphasizes God’s sovereign control over history and the ultimate triumph of His kingdom.
