The Interpretation of the Dream
15 “I, Dan iel, was trou bled in spir it, and the vi
sions that passed through my mind dis turbed me.
16 I ap proached one of those stand ing there and
asked him the mean ing of all this.
“So he told me and gave me the in ter pre ta tion
of these things: 17 ‘The four great beasts are four
kings that will rise from the earth. 18 But the holy
peo ple of the Most High will re ceive the king dom
and will pos sess it for ev er — yes, for ever and ever.’
19 “Then I want ed to know the mean ing of the
fourth beast, which was dif fer ent from all the
oth ers and most ter ri fy ing, with its iron teeth
and bronze claws — the beast that crushed and
de voured its vic tims and tram pled un der foot what
ev er was left. 20 I also want ed to know about the ten
horns on its head and about the oth er horn that
Thousands upon thousands attended him;
ten thousand times ten thousand stood
before him.
The court was seated,
and the books were opened.
11 “Then I con tin ued to watch be cause of the
boast ful words the horn was speak ing. I kept look
ing un til the beast was slain and its body de stroyed
and thrown into the blaz ing fire. 12 (The oth er
beasts had been stripped of their au thor i ty, but
were al lowed to live for a pe ri od of time.)
13 “In my vi sion at night I looked, and there be
fore me was one like a son of man, a com ing with
the clouds of heav en. He ap proached the An cient
of Days and was led into his pres ence. 14 He was
giv en au thor i ty, glo ry and sov er eign pow er; all
na tions and peo ples of ev ery lan guage wor shiped
him. His do min ion is an ever last ing do min ion that
will not pass away, and his king dom is one that
will nev er be de stroyed.
a 13 The Aramaic phrase bar enash means human being. The
phrase son of man is retained here because of its use in the New
Testament as a title of Jesus, probably based largely on this verse.
7:13–14 Following the judgment by the Ancient of Days,
a human Messianic figure appears. He is presented
before the Ancient One and given a dominion that will
never pass away.
7:13 one like a son of man The Aramaic phrase used
here is an idiom that can be translated as “one like a
human being.” Jesus adopts this phrase as a title (“Son
of Man”). “One like a son of man” is probably best under-
stood as a Messianic reference—which makes the most
sense in light of Da 7:14. If the vision of ch. 7 parallels that
of ch. 2, the figure refers to the fifth kingdom (2:44). Mes-
sianic expectations of the time anticipated one who would
drive out foreign enemies, legitimize the temple religion
and usher in a period of utopia for the people of Israel.
7:15–28 For the first time in the book, Daniel could
not make sense of a vision and needed someone to
explain it to him. He questions one of the throne room
attendants, who clarifies the meaning of the beasts and
the little horn. The account ends with the anticipation of
God’s kingdom and a glimmer of hope. The vision will be
expanded upon in later chapters.
7:16 I approached one of those standing there
Perhaps Gabriel (see 9:21).
7:17 four great beasts are four kings The four kings
represent four kingdoms (see v. 3 and note).
7:18 the holy people of the Most High The Aramaic
word used here is probably an inclusive term referring
to saints and angels.
