However, they remained <\/span><b>away from God,<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> bringing many catastrophes to their territory.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">One of these catastrophes was the invasion of the kingdom of Judah by the Babylonian empire of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.tubibliaonline.com\/en\/nebuchadnezzar-in-the-bible\/\">Nebuchadnezzar<\/a> II. <\/span><b>Nebuchadnezzar II<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">. With it, Jerusalem was destroyed, and the temple also disappeared; something fundamental for the Jews.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Many of the inhabitants of these territories went <\/span><b>exiled to Babylon. <\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Although, it was not a difficult time for everyone. Some were able to climb the ladder in their new destination and reach the highest positions in the empire.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Daniel was part of this group, being chosen by King Nebuchadnezzar to be educated in the court. There he lived with other young Hebrew men, while <\/span><b>maintained their faith and their Jewish<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> and their Jewish customs without turning away from God.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">This is how he spent his whole life, in which different episodes took place, which are told in the form of an autobiography <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">in the Book of Daniel. For this reason, you will get to know Daniel&#8217;s life much better by reading his own book.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Meaning_of_Daniel_in_the_Bible\"><\/span><b>Meaning of Daniel in the Bible<\/b><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Daniel is a very popular name nowadays, and you should know that, apart from being a beautiful name, it is one of the<strong> oldest names in the world<\/strong><\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><strong>\u00a0known<\/strong> and has a very deep meaning given by its Hebrew origin.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The word Daniel can be separated in Hebrew as &#8220;Dan-i-el&#8221;, which literally means: <\/span><b>&#8220;God is my judge.&#8221;<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">. This meaning is closely linked to the history of the biblical character, since it was God who helped him and saved him from the false justice exercised by the despot monarchs with whom he lived.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The feminine version of the name is <\/span><b>Daniela<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> and means the same as the masculine.

However, these survive the fire thanks to the Lord without taking any damage.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Finally, the last chapter, concerning Nebuchadnezzar, deals with an episode of the king&#8217;s madness.<\/span><b> madness of the king<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> induced by God. The Lord made him become a beast and graze in the field for seven weeks until the king, at last, recognized him as the true God.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><b>Daniel 5 and Daniel 6: The fall of the empire<\/b><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Daniel survived several kings, until he reached the last king of the Babylonian empire: Belshazzar.

The troops of the Persian king Cyrus II the Great entered Babylon and the Jews were liberated. However, the process of returning to his homeland was much slower.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">During the reign of a later Persian king, Darius; a law was written that did not allow people to pray to God.

Now, let&#8217;s take a closer look at them and see what they mean.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3 style=\"text-align: center;\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Vision_of_the_four_beasts\"><\/span><b>Vision of the four beasts<\/b><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Daniel&#8217;s first vision occurs in <\/span><b>Daniel 7<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">where he explains that he sees four beasts coming out of the sea fighting each other. These represent four distinct kingdoms that battle each other for supremacy in the world.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Lion and eagle symbolize the Babylonian empire of Nebuchadnezzar and the bear symbolizes the Medo-Persian empire that ended the Babylonian empire and liberated the Jews. The third animal, a leopard, represents the Greek empire of <\/span><b>Alexander the Great <\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">with four heads because at his death it was divided into four parts.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Finally, the <\/span><b>Roman Empire<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, a<\/span> <span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">fierce and fearsome beast that lasts much longer than the other three. However, it is also destroyed by the power of God, whose government is eternal and immutable.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Daniel speaks of the coming of the <\/span><b>son of man <\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">a title given to Jesus on many occasions in the Gospels. Daniel does not fail in his prophecy and does so with amazing accuracy, thank God.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Vision_of_the_ram_and_the_goat\"><\/span><b>Vision of the ram and the goat<\/b><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In the next chapter, we again have a vision about the succession of empires. In this case, the ram with <\/span><b>two horns<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> represents the Medo-Persian empire, one horn being the Medes and the other the Persians.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">They are not equal, for the Persians had much more power than the Medes. However, this ram was attacked by a billy goat with<\/span><b> a very prominent horn<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">. This great horn represents Alexander the Great and the goat his empire.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">When the big horn is broken, i.e., Alexander dies, it is replaced by four smaller horns<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u00a0symbolizing the division of the empire as it happened in reality.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">From one of these new horns, a smaller horn comes out, which would correspond to the Syrian king <\/span><b>Antiochus IV <\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">who also ruled over Israel. Some 2300 days after this, the temple in Jerusalem was purified.<\/span><\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">&#8220;And he said, &#8216;Unto two thousand and three hundred evenings and mornings; then shall the sanctuary be cleansed'&#8221;.

The most amazing thing about all this is that it all came true exactly and now history is as we know it.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Seventy_Weeks_Prophecy\"><\/span><b>Seventy Weeks Prophecy<\/b><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<blockquote>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><i><br \/>\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">&#8220;<\/span><\/i><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Know therefore and understand, that from the going forth of the commandment to restore and to build Jerusalem until Messiah the Prince, there shall be seven weeks, and threescore and two weeks; the street and the wall shall be built again in troublous times.&#8221; (Daniel 9:25 NKJV1960)<\/span><br \/>\n<\/i><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">This is the best known prophecy of Daniel. It happens while he is praying, and the archangel Gabriel appears to him again to tell him when he would be the <\/span><b>Messiah&#8217;s arrival<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">They talk about <\/span><b>69 weeks<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> from a decree to restore and build Jerusalem. There are many interpretations as to when the countdown begins, but you should know that we are not talking about the weeks we know today.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">At that time, week meant a group of seven years, so it is a <strong>p<\/strong><\/span><b>eriod of 483 years<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">. The dates agree if one takes as the beginning the rebuilding of Jerusalem by Nehemiah and some point in the life of Jesus by another.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Again, we see how the Book of Daniel accurately predicts the future and we see how the Messiah is Our Lord Jesus. It also predicts that <\/span><b>Jesus will die executed<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> and the temple again destroyed.<\/span><\/p>\n<div class=\"lyte-wrapper fourthree\" title=\"Bible Brilliance - Daniel&amp;#039;s Seventy Weeks\" style=\"width:640px;max-width:100%;margin:5px auto;\"><div class=\"lyMe\" id=\"WYL_Dva0G0ZcIK4\" itemprop=\"video\" itemscope itemtype=\"https:\/\/schema.org\/VideoObject\"><div><meta itemprop=\"thumbnailUrl\" content=\"https:\/\/www.tubibliaonline.com\/wp-content\/plugins\/wp-youtube-lyte\/lyteCache.php?origThumbUrl=https%3A%2F%2Fi.ytimg.com%2Fvi%2FDva0G0ZcIK4%2Fhqdefault.jpg\" \/><meta itemprop=\"embedURL\" content=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/Dva0G0ZcIK4\" \/><meta itemprop=\"duration\" content=\"PT5M9S\" \/><meta itemprop=\"uploadDate\" content=\"2016-11-12T01:31:57Z\" \/><\/div><div id=\"lyte_Dva0G0ZcIK4\" data-src=\"https:\/\/www.tubibliaonline.com\/wp-content\/plugins\/wp-youtube-lyte\/lyteCache.php?origThumbUrl=https%3A%2F%2Fi.ytimg.com%2Fvi%2FDva0G0ZcIK4%2Fhqdefault.jpg\" class=\"pL\"><div class=\"tC\"><div class=\"tT\" itemprop=\"name\">Bible Brilliance - Daniel&#039;s Seventy Weeks<\/div><\/div><div class=\"play\"><\/div><div class=\"ctrl\"><div class=\"Lctrl\"><\/div><div class=\"Rctrl\"><\/div><\/div><\/div><noscript><a href=\"https:\/\/youtu.be\/Dva0G0ZcIK4\" rel=\"nofollow\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.tubibliaonline.com\/wp-content\/plugins\/wp-youtube-lyte\/lyteCache.php?origThumbUrl=https%3A%2F%2Fi.ytimg.com%2Fvi%2FDva0G0ZcIK4%2F0.jpg\" alt=\"Bible Brilliance - Daniel&amp;#039;s Seventy Weeks\" width=\"640\" height=\"460\" \/><br \/>Watch this video on YouTube<\/a><\/noscript><meta itemprop=\"description\" content=\"An explanation of my favorite messianic prophecy in the whole Bible - Daniel&#039;s Seventy Weeks.
