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.

A Connection
with Daniel. Just search the bible for “ten horns” and the fourth beast of Daniel is tied to the second beast of John in chapters 12, 13, and 17 of the Apocalypse. This connection to Daniel can help us identify the beasts which may be easier than identifying the ten horns and the seven heads. What would the beasts of Daniel have in common with the beasts of John?

A Treasure Hunt
one clue leads to another. One thousand years leads to Constantinople and Babylon the Great which leads to 666. Next step is to identify the ten horns and the seven heads. The numbers are trustworthy and need no interpretation. Let’s see what fits with “ten”, the next number.

A Sea of Glass
mingled with fire. Greek fire was used to defeat the Muslim attack on Constantinople. The Sea of Marmara was like a sheet of glass. The year was 666. “2 And I saw as it were a sea of glass mingled with fire: and them that had gotten the victory over the beast, and over his image, and over his mark, and over the number of his name, stand on the sea of glass, having the harps of God.” An amazing fit.

A Missing Date
in history. Nothing happened. So what was going on just before or after that date? Gibbon has something in 668 but it requires a calculation. “Forty-six years after the flight of Mahomet from Mecca, his disciples appeared in arms under the walls of Constantinople.” His 46 years is interesting. If you put 46 in an Islamic calendar converter, you get 666.

A Number
a mark, a start, a beginning, a date, a year. Nearly every product sold today has a mark which is the date of its origin. Number in Daniel refers to years. So what happened in the year 666? Which calendar do you use? The Julian calendar that started in 44 BC? 622 of the Gregorian calendar would be 666 of the Julian calendar and the beginning of the Islamic calendar, the Hegira

A Mystery
and that is just one of the characteristics of Babylon the Great. It had many waters, it is a mystery, it had seven hills, it is fallen, it had trade, and it can be found no more at all. No other city had all these characteristics. Only Constantinople. A great city.

A Big Number
and a literal interpretation is where to start. There is only one where they reigned with Christ. The Byzantine Empire and it comes with Constantinople, its capital, which is a perfect fit for Babylon the Great. If the big pieces fit, it won’t be hard to get the little ones to fit.

A Fit
with what seems to be prophesied. Historical events alone can verify the fulfillment of prophecy. There is only one requirement. That it fit with other big pieces based on numbers alone. Numbers do not require interpretation. Only numbers can be trusted. Start with numbers.
