Which empire follows Greece in Daniel's vision of the four beasts?
The Roman Empire follows Greece in Daniel's vision of the four beasts. After the Grecian empire falls, the next beast arises, described as dreadful, terrible, and exceedingly strong, representing Rome. The sequence is Babylon, Medo-Persia, Greece, and then Rome.
Les teaches that in Daniel's vision, the bear represents the Medes and Persians, who took over the then-known world. The leopard depicts Alexander the Great and Greece, with four wings and four heads showing the four generals who divided the empire after Alexander died. Then, as Les explains, after the Grecian empire falls, up comes the Roman Empire, which Daniel describes as dreadful, terrible, and exceedingly strong. So the empire that follows Greece is Rome.
After this I saw in the night visions, and behold a fourth beast, dreadful and terrible, and strong exceedingly; and it had great iron teeth: it devoured and brake in pieces, and stamped the residue with the feet of it: and it was diverse from all the beasts that were before it; and it had ten horns.
