Daniel Lesson 28: The Ram and Goat Vision

This lesson is on Daniel 8:1-10. With chapter 8, we begin to look at the third section of Daniel which we have entitled, "Daniel Prophetic History of Israel". The prophetic vision of Daniel 8 begins with the conflict of the two world powers that would sequentially follow Babylon (Medo-Persia and Greece), but the focus then narrows down to the specific persecution to occur in a small place on the map called Judah. In Daniel 7, we learn about the coming "little horn" of the last days - the Antichrist, who will arise from a revived form of Ancient Rome. In Daniel 8, we learn much about another "little horn" who came out of the Greek Empire to serve as a prophetic type of evil character and actions of the end-times' Antichrist.
