Question: What are some issues with interpreting the Book of Daniel as a prophetic vision, rather than as history? Are there similar issues with the Book of Revelations (Revelation)? If so what are they?
Question: Why different Languages?
The book of Daniel is one of the most revealing prophecies of the Bible.
Chapter two especially gives extended time scale from “the head” down to the “10 toes”!
It is also one of the most vilified books of the Bible, by Satan’s agents (human and spiritual), because of its most favoured place in the Canon of Scripture; and the fact that Daniel was/is “greatly loved” by God!
Jesus referred to it in Matt. 24 in the context of Satan’s agent (Anti-Christ) re. the timing of part of “Jacob’s Trouble”!
It is hated by humans who have given their lives to Satan, as its predictions have been so far so accurate; and the usual attack is “those events were included after the facts”.
The Aramaic is used from Cp.1 to 6:28, and is historic; and from 7:1 to 12:13 is prophetic and in Hebrew.
