In Daniel 10 we begin the final section of the book. Chapter 10 introduces the final vision that will encompass chapters 11-12 and also gives us a clear glimpse into the ongoing battle between God and evil forces in the heavenly places!

Last week we saw Daniel praying and asking for God's mercy. This week Bro. Zach finishes chapter 9 by looking at God's response to Daniel. Spoiler alert: God reveals to Daniel what the end of time will look like!

As we turn our attention to Daniel 9 we spend our first week looking at Daneil's prayer, the rich theology found in it, and see how it reflects the Mosaic covenant and foreshadows the New Covenant to come though Jesus Christ.

In Daniel 8 we see Daniel being given a vision about a Ram with lopsided horns, a Goat with a large horn between its eyes, and a small horn that grows up. In this we see a prediction about Persia, Greece, and a strong ruler that lifted himself in opposition to God, and learned that is not a good idea!
