Eschatology of the Prophet Daniel (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798231019120)

In this work I explain the visions of the Jewish prophet Daniel, who lived during the time of the Jewish deportation by the Babylonian empire. His book is not addressed by the rabbis in their studies, however, in Christian eschatology, his works are fully present, however, based on a long series of erroneous interpretations that do not correspond to the facts. The vision of the statue of Nebuchadnezzar II, who observes the great empires that would be established in the world, beginning with his own (the Babylonian), in the form of the golden head of the statue. Then the vision of the 4 beasts. This prophecy requires the information later given to the Jewish scribes Baruk and Ezra, where the matters of these beasts and the fourth kingdom, the one that changes until the end, are explained.
Next, the vision of the goat and the ram. As in Daniel's visions, and what is known from the Hellenistic accounts, after Alexander's death power was passed, not to his heirs (who were killed), but to his 4 generals. This story is complemented by other Jewish accounts such as the Maccabean Chronicles and the works of the Jewish historian Titus Flavius Josephus. This is also known as the first Abomination of Desolation, instigated by Antiochus IV Epiphanes. The explanation of 9 in the book of Daniel would follow these events. The vision of 70 conspiracies relating from the days of Daniel to the destruction of Judea. The prophet is told how 7 of these conspiracies would develop to reestablish the Jews in their land from the days of the reign of Cyrus the Great. Later the Messiah would appear and fulfill 63 conspiracies, but would be killed and then removed from the midst of his people. His followers would fulfill a New Covenant established by him before and during the military struggle of the Jews against the Romans, whose devastating effects would begin with the troops of Titus destroying the temple (the last Abomination of Desolation) and would end in the days of Emperor Hadrian, who would expel the Jews from their land. The vision of a northern kingdom against a southern kingdom. Here the broadest version of the historical events of that time - and of this book - occurs, which begin with that brutal war between the Persian Empire and the Macedonian Empire, advances until humiliating the Persians, and divides the power of Alexander the Great to Seleucus, Ptolemy, Cassander and Lysimachus. To conclude, all these warlike confrontations began to disarm when the Roman Republic was eclipsed by the imperial power, and thus began the expansionism and desire for power of conquest of the Caesars.
