A Connection
between the beasts of Daniel and the beasts of the Apocalypse. The ten horns ties the fourth beast of Daniel to the second beast of John. Can we tie we tie the two beasts, seven heads, and ten horns to the Byzantine Empire? We can but we can’t call it proof. For that we have to get all the pieces to fit.
A Holy Place
spoken of by Daniel. What is in the holy place now? Does the Dome of the Rock make Islam the fourth beast of Daniel? If the king of the north is responsible for it, that would make Mohammed the king of the south and Fatimah his daughter. Muawiyah is the king of the north and his dynasty built the Dome of the Rock. Can this be connected to the beasts of the Apocalypse?
A Beast
according to Daniel? What do Babylon, Persia, Greece, and Rome have in common? The temple. The first was destroyed by Babylon. Persia helped build the second. Greece desecrated the second which was destroyed by Rome. Are there any other candidates? Islam’s Dome of the Rock is preventing the third. What else can Daniel tell us?
A Thousand Year
period where they reigned with Christ. It was a Christian empire and that would be the Byzantine Empire. Does it come with two beasts, seven heads, and ten horns? Let us start with the two beasts. What makes a beast a beast? Daniel knows beasts. What can he tell us?
A Book
that directed John to prophesy again. The time was near not for the second coming but for the first coming. Today the time is near for the second one. What was prophesied should be clear now and only history can verify that but you can’t rely on your interpretation. You can only rely on numbers and maybe colors that don’t need interpretation. So let us start with numbers and historical events that might fit what appears to be prophesied. Is there a thousand years where they reigned with Christ?
A Project
left undone. His unpublished work on the Apocalypse was saved, translated, and put online. All interested in the Apocalypse should consider his views which includes dynasties as the meaning of seven heads and ten horns. Newton felt our understanding of the Apocalypse would continue to improve as we approach the end. Daniel assures us of that.

A Key
that unlocks the door to understanding the Apocalypse. The Church Fathers did not have this advantage. Because of this, in the end knowledge shall be increased. Because of the cloud, it will reach all nations. Behold, he cometh with clouds; and every eye shall see him. This could be a sign that the time is at hand.

A King of the South
with a daughter. One of his princes, or commanders as other versions would have it, would become a stronger king of the north who shall place the abomination of desolation. Fatimah is the daughter of Mohammed and Muawiyah was his commader in the north. A perfect fit.

A Beast
a beast? The Temple. Don’t mess with the Temple. Babylon, Greece, Rome, and Islam did. The first beast destroyed the first Temple. The second desecrated the second. The third destroyed the second. The fourth is preventing the third. Another connection. Does Islam fit with other parts of Daniel? We shall see.

A Fit
with John when it comes to beasts. The “ten horns” is not the only connection. The beast John saw was like a leopard just like Daniel’s third beast. It was also like a bear just like Daniel’s second beast. It was also like a lion just like Daniel’s first beast. The last two beasts of Daniel are the two beasts of the Apocalypse. Another connection. Another fit.
