Daniel 8 is a tough chapter to work through, and I believe that it was done that way on purpose. But, since it is an important chapter in an important book, it is worth our time to try and understand it.
And, I believe that we have some ability to piece together what can and cannot be the correct interpretation of Daniel 8.
So, let’s try to figure out if the Antichrist MUST come from the region in and around the Middle East – including Greece and parts of central Asia.
Does the Bible say where the Antichrist comes from?
I know that this question sounds strange, but the prophet Daniel speaks about the Last Days. And, he talks about a ‘man of fierce countenance’.
Do you remember what he said?
He’s in Daniel 8, and he’s also referred to as a ‘little horn’. The question is whether this is the Antichrist, or whether it is Antiochus IV Epiphanes.
This is a pretty important discussion, and you need to think about this. If ‘the Little Horn’ is NOT Antiochus Epiphanes, then this is the Antichrist. And, it really sounds like the Antichrist.
