Daniel — the man who interpreted kings' dreams and read writing on walls — admits he didn't understand this vision, and it made him physically sick for days. Sometimes faithfulness means carrying what you can't fully explain.
📢 Chapter 8 — The Vision That Made Sick 🐏
This is Daniel's second major vision, and it's different from the first. The first one (chapter 7) was a sweeping panoramic view of world history — four beasts, a heavenly courtroom, the whole timeline. This one zooms in. It narrows the focus to two specific empires and what happens when unchecked power meets unstoppable arrogance. And unlike a lot of in the Bible, this one comes with its own interpretation — because God sent to explain it personally.
