King Nebuchadnezzar we know is the Head of Gold...Babylonian Empire...606 BC...
Read it for yourself...No private interpretation...Daniel 2:38..."You are that head of gold."
“The great God has shown the king what will take place in the future. The dream is true and its interpretation is trustworthy.”
46 Then King Nebuchadnezzar fell prostrate before Daniel and paid him honor and ordered that an offering and incense be presented to him. 47 The king said to Daniel, “Surely your God is the God of gods and the Lord of kings and a revealer of mysteries, for you were able to reveal this mystery.”
What Next?... Read along at Daniel 2:31-33...
31 “Your Majesty looked, and there before you stood a large statue—an enormous, dazzling statue, awesome in appearance. 32 The head of the statue was made of pure Gold, Babylon which is modern day Iraq!) its chest and arms of silver, its belly and thighs of bronze, 33 its legs of iron, its feet partly of iron and partly of baked clay. (Its Chest and Arms of Silver)...lets read together verse 39-43, 39 “After you, another kingdom will arise, inferior to yours. ( Next, a third kingdom, one of bronze, will rule over the whole earth. 40 Finally, there will be a fourth kingdom, strong as iron—for iron breaks and smashes everything—and as iron breaks things to pieces, so it will crush and break all the others. 41 Just as you saw that the feet and toes were partly of baked clay and partly of iron, so this will be a divided kingdom; yet it will have some of the strength of iron in it, even as you saw iron mixed with clay. 42 As the toes were partly iron and partly clay, so this kingdom will be partly strong and partly brittle. 43 And just as you saw the iron mixed with baked clay, so the people will be a mixture and will not remain united, any more than iron mixes with clay....So we have read about the Babylonian Empire...Right? We didn't make it up...Read verse 45,"the interpretation thereof sure!"
Grace, Peace and Joy in Christ Jesus...
