1 | What does the statue symbolize? | Dan 2:31 | Aspilos | 60036 | ||
Is the statue in Nebuchadnezzar's dream symbolic of the four great empires from Babylon to Rome and of the nations from which Rome was divided? | ||||||
2 | What does the statue symbolize? | Dan 2:31 | ateo | 60174 | ||
It's more believable that the 4 empires are Babylon, Lydia, Media-Persia, and Greece. Why, you ask? Daniel was probably not written until the 2nd century BCE-the time when the Greeks controlled the area today known as the Middle East. Therefore, it seems the writer was trying to encourage his people during their time of persecution from the Greeks. | ||||||

4 | From where is the KIngdom Lydia? | Dan 2:31 | EdB | 60207 | ||
inheavenseyes I'm not Ateo but the Lydian Empire was a small empire that existed round the time of Babylonian empire in what is now called Turkey. Sardis is believed to have been it's capital city. The Lydian Empire played no significant role in Israel's history and is not mentioned in the Book of Daniel. Your absolutely right the four Empires of Daniel are the Babylonian, Medo-Persian, Grecian, and Roman. Ateo is totally off base with his stated assumptions. EdB |
