About this listen


This progression reveals a sobering reality: even when the first three beasts lose their "dominion," the text notes their "lives were prolonged for a season" (Daniel 7:12). This suggests that the spiritual distortions of Babylon, Persia, and Greece linger within the history of all subsequent human systems. This decay eventually produces the Fourth Beast—the Roman system. Described as "different from all others," it possesses iron teeth and loses all connection to the natural world. It is no longer an animal but a machine of total destruction, representing the final maturity of human power separated from the heavenly standard.
