Daniel Two – The Dream of the Metallic Image

Head of Gold the beasts of the field and the fowls of the
heaven hath he given into thine hand, and
Babylon hath made thee ruler over them all. Thou art
this head of gold. Daniel 2:38

Breast of Silver And after thee shall arise another

Medo-Persia kingdom inferior to thee.
Daniel 2:39

Thighs of Brass ... and another third kingdom of brass,

Greece which shall bear rule over all the earth.
Daniel 2:39

Legs of Iron And the fourth kingdom shall be strong

as iron: forasmuch as iron breaketh in
Rome pieces and subdueth all things: and as
iron that breaketh all these, shall it
[B.C. 168 - A.D. 476] break in pieces and bruise. Daniel 2:40

Feet of Iron & Clay And whereas thou sawest the feet and toes, part
of potters’ clay, and part of iron, the kingdom
Divided Nation of shall be divided; but there shall be in it of the
Western Europe strength of the iron, forasmuch as thou sawest
the iron mixed with miry clay. Daniel 2:41
