God sees all

IMG_1664Daniel 11:2-45

The details in this prophecy relate to the origin and result of the rule of Antiochus IV, who called himself Epiphanes – an appearance of God.  He was the Old Testament Anti-Messiah. Part of this prophecy is (mistakenly) viewed by some interpreters as having to do with a future Antichrist.  But this text is a continuation of the theme of chapter 10, and has to do with the fate of the Jews before the end of the indignation (God’s wrath against his own people for their idolatry).  Some insist that this had to have been written after the fact, because its details are so accurate.  It was accurate because God sees all and knows all.  He is not limited as we are.

LORD, you know our future. We trust you to put an end to your enemies.
