Daniel has two parts:
- The history of the Gentile empires, beginning with Nebuchadnezzar, the head of gold.
- Daniel’s special vision (beginning with chap. 7), marking out the condition and circumstances of the saints in relation to these empires. We have the coming of judgment to set them all aside in favour of Israel. But he only comes to the door of the millennium without unfolding it.
