Prophecies fulfilled- the Book Daniel

AIarts

Daniel, from his name sake, could have ancestor or close blood relationships with the marginalised Dan tribe, even though he was, most likely, born in Judea. He and his friends are tools to glorify God in Babylon and he has served as a prophet for multiple international prophecies.

The Book of Daniel in the Bible contains many prophecies that have been fulfilled or will be fulfilled in the future. Some of the prophecies that have been fulfilled are:

- The rise and fall of four empires: Babylon, Medo-Persia, Greece and Rome. Daniel saw these empires as a statue made of different metals in Nebuchadnezzar's dream (Daniel 2) and as four beasts in his own vision (Daniel 7). He also received more details about the kingdoms of Medo-Persia and Greece from the angel Gabriel (Daniel 8).

- The coming of the Messiah and His death. Daniel was given a timeline of 70 weeks (or 490 years) from the decree to rebuild Jerusalem until the appearance of the Messiah and His death (Daniel 9:24-27). This prophecy was fulfilled by Jesus Christ, who entered Jerusalem as the Messiah in A.D. 30 and was crucified in A.D. 33.

- The historical events involving the kings of the north and south. Daniel was shown a detailed prophecy of the conflicts between the Seleucid Empire (the king of the north) and the Ptolemaic Empire (the king of the south), which were successors of Alexander the Great's empire. This prophecy covers the period from the fourth century B.C. to the second century B.C. and includes many accurate details about wars, alliances, intrigues and invasions (Daniel 11:1-35).
