In the fifties it was Nasser of Egypt.īabylon has never been shown as a beast in the bible. Iran is regarded as Israel's main enemy at present.
Today Turkey has turned from a neutral position regarding Israel to a negative one with ominous consequences for the future. Later, the Persians and Turks added to the diversity of cultures.
#EDWARD BISHOP ELLIOTT HORAE APOCALYPTICAE PDF SKIN#
The leopard is the only beast here with two skin colorings - yellow and black, representing the two sources of Arabian culture - Semitic and Hamitic. The four wings represent the rapidity of conquest by Islam and the four heads the four centers of Islam - Arabia, Iran, Egypt, and Turkey, each historically dominating. The leopard with four heads and four wings represents the persecution of the Jews by Islam.
This is slow for a beast with four wings. It took Alexander 10 years to conquer all of the Persian empire (334 BC to 324 BC). The Muslims captured Jerusalem in 638 AD. The third empire is Rome, and the fourth is the Muslim conquest of the Middle East with its capitol at Mecca. It is no more than a transition from the Persian empire to the Roman, and Rome was occupied fighting the Persians and Parthians even after they had conquered the Middle East. So, the so-called Greek empire isn't in the same category as the Babylonian, Persian and Roman empires. Both of these so-called empires were nothing more than artificial military dictatorships. Alexander actually wanted his capitol to be the city of Babylon before he died, not understanding it wouldn't work. If a truly Greek empire had formed, the capitol would have been in Greece or Macedonia, the same way as in all other empires - Assyria, Egypt, Babylon, Persia, etc. Both were conquered by the Greek army - but there were no physical locations of Greeks traditionally living in these areas to form a capitol they were foreigners - so they both began to import Greeks by immigration to administer the government. In this sense, the Seleucid and Ptolemaic empires don't technically qualify.
