DANIEL 2:32-34
[32] This image's head was of fine gold, his breast and his arms of silver, his belly and his thighs of brass,
[33] His legs of iron, his feet part of iron and part of clay.
[34] Thou sawest till that a stone was cut
out without hands, which smote the image upon his feet that were of iron
and clay, and brake them to pieces.
These verses in Daniel Chapter 2 is
the focal centerpiece of all Bible Prophecy. First, let us examine what
we have to work with.
What ever this hulking image is, it filled Nebuchadnezzar with a horror of fear, waking him from a sound sleep.
We are led to believe that this is
the form of a human man. A huge hulking man. As powerful of a man as
Nebuchadnezzar was, this image was fearful enough to even overpower the
king.
This image had a head of gold, chest
and arms of silver, stomach and thighs of brass, and then legs of iron
with feet iron mixed with clay.
Now in the verses to come, we will
take this image apart, examine it and see what the Lord Jesus would have
us to learn from it all.
Notice also Daniel uses the phrase...thou sawest. This is to assure the king that he is not mentally deficient. But that he really did see this image.
