This phrase highlights Daniel's attention to the "horn," which represents a powerful ruler or kingdom. The "arrogant words" suggest blasphemy or defiance against God, reminiscent of the Antichrist in eschatological interpretations. This connects to <a href="/revelation/13-5.htm">Revelation 13:5-6</a>, where the beast speaks blasphemies. Historically, this could allude to rulers like Antiochus IV Epiphanes, known for his persecution of the Jews and desecration of the Temple. The persistence in watching indicates the importance of vigilance and discernment in understanding prophetic visions.As I continued to watch, the beast was slain, The "beast" symbolizes a kingdom or empire, often interpreted as a representation of oppressive regimes throughout history. The slaying of the beast signifies divine judgment and the ultimate triumph of God's sovereignty over evil. This echoes themes found in <a href="/revelation/19-20.htm">Revelation 19:20</a>, where the beast is captured and defeated. The imagery of slaying underscores the finality and decisiveness of God's intervention in human history.and its body was destroyed and thrown into the blazing fire. The destruction and casting into the "blazing fire" symbolize complete and utter judgment. Fire is a common biblical motif for purification and judgment, as seen in passages like <a href="/matthew/25-41.htm">Matthew 25:41</a>, where eternal fire is prepared for the devil and his angels. This imagery reinforces the idea of God's ultimate justice and the eradication of evil. The finality of the beast's destruction serves as a reassurance of God's control over history and the eventual establishment of His eternal kingdom.<div class="vheading2">Persons / Places / Events</div>1. <a href="/topical/d/daniel.htm">Daniel</a> The prophet who receives the vision.

We might have expected that the crowning scene of this vision would have been the uprooting of the little horn and the complete destruction of it, but it appears that the blaspheming spirit with which it was inspired issued from the fourth monster, which "was slain and burned."Burning flame.--Such is the doctrine of final retribution, as revealed to Daniel. (Comp. <a href="/isaiah/66-24.htm" title="And they shall go forth, and look on the carcasses of the men that have transgressed against me: for their worm shall not die, neither shall their fire be quenched; and they shall be an abhorring to all flesh.">Isaiah 66:24</a>; <a href="/revelation/19-20.htm" title="And the beast was taken, and with him the false prophet that worked miracles before him, with which he deceived them that had received the mark of the beast, and them that worshipped his image.

The Septuagint Version has been translated from the same text; but the word translated "because" is rendered τότε, "then," according to the usual meaning of the word. Theodotion has a doublet. The Peshitta is much briefer, "I saw that this beast was slain, and its body destroyed, and it was cast into the flame of fire." The voice of the great words; that is, blasphemies. The punishment of blasphemy among the Babylonians was burning. On account of the blasphemies of the little horn, the whole empire to which it belonged was destroyed. If we regard the fourth beast as Rome, and the little horn the imperial dignity, it was on account of its blasphemies that the empire really ceased. The blasphemous claim to divinity wrought madness in the minds of such youths as Caligula, Nero, Commodus, Caracalla, and Heliogabalus. The process might be a slow one. God had his purpose in the history of the race to work out by the Roman Empire; yet it was none the less the madness of the emperors that brought the empire down. The way the provinces were harried by barbarians East and West could well be described as burning the body of it with fire. <a href="/commentaries/daniel/7-11.htm">Parallel Commentaries ...</a> <a name="lexicon" id="lexicon"></a><div class="vheading">Hebrew</div>Then בֵּאדַ֗יִן (bê·ḏa·yin) Preposition-b | Adverb <a href="/hebrew/strongs_116.htm">Strong's 116: </a> Then, thereupon I kept watching חָזֵ֣ה (ḥā·zêh) Verb - Qal - Participle - masculine singular <a href="/hebrew/strongs_2370.htm">Strong's 2370: </a> To gaze upon, mentally to dream, be usual because of מִן־ (min-) Preposition <a href="/hebrew/strongs_4481.htm">Strong's 4481: </a> From, out of, by, by reason of, at, more than the arrogant רַבְרְבָתָ֔א (raḇ·rə·ḇā·ṯā) Adjective - feminine plural determinate <a href="/hebrew/strongs_7260.htm">Strong's 7260: </a> Very great things words מִלַּיָּ֣א (mil·lay·yā) Noun - feminine plural determinate <a href="/hebrew/strongs_4406.htm">Strong's 4406: </a> A word, command, discourse, subject the horn קַרְנָ֖א (qar·nā) Noun - feminine singular determinate <a href="/hebrew/strongs_7162.htm">Strong's 7162: </a> A horn was speaking. מְמַלֱּלָ֑ה (mə·mal·lĕ·lāh) Verb - Piel - Participle - feminine singular <a href="/hebrew/strongs_4449.htm">Strong's 4449: </a> To speak, say As עַד֩ (‘aḏ) Preposition <a href="/hebrew/strongs_5705.htm">Strong's 5705: </a> Even to, until I continued הֲוֵ֔ית (hă·wêṯ) Verb - Qal - Perfect - first person common singular <a href="/hebrew/strongs_1934.htm">Strong's 1934: </a> To become, come to pass, be to watch, חָזֵ֣ה (ḥā·zêh) Verb - Qal - Participle - masculine singular <a href="/hebrew/strongs_2370.htm">Strong's 2370: </a> To gaze upon, mentally to dream, be usual the beast חֵֽיוְתָא֙ (ḥê·wə·ṯā) Noun - feminine singular determinate <a href="/hebrew/strongs_2423.htm">Strong's 2423: </a> An animal was slain, קְטִילַ֤ת (qə·ṭî·laṯ) Verb - Nifal - Perfect - third person feminine singular <a href="/hebrew/strongs_6992.htm">Strong's 6992: </a> To kill and its body גִּשְׁמַ֔הּ (giš·mah) Noun - masculine singular construct | third person feminine singular <a href="/hebrew/strongs_1655.htm">Strong's 1655: </a> The body, a hard rain) was destroyed וְהוּבַ֣ד (wə·hū·ḇaḏ) Conjunctive waw | Verb - Hofal - Conjunctive perfect - third person masculine singular <a href="/hebrew/strongs_7.htm">Strong's 7: </a> To wander away, lose oneself, to perish and thrown into וִיהִיבַ֖ת (wî·hî·ḇaṯ) Conjunctive waw | Verb - Nifal - Conjunctive perfect - third person feminine singular <a href="/hebrew/strongs_3052.htm">Strong's 3052: </a> To give, to put, imperatively, come the blazing לִיקֵדַ֥ת (lî·qê·ḏaṯ) Preposition-l | Noun - feminine singular construct <a href="/hebrew/strongs_3346.htm">Strong's 3346: </a> A conflagration fire. אֶשָּֽׁא׃ (’eš·šā) Noun - feminine singular <a href="/hebrew/strongs_785.htm">Strong's 785: </a> A fire <div class="vheading">Links</div><a href="/niv/daniel/7-11.htm">Daniel 7:11 NIV</a> <a href="/nlt/daniel/7-11.htm">Daniel 7:11 NLT</a> <a href="/esv/daniel/7-11.htm">Daniel 7:11 ESV</a> <a href="/nasb/daniel/7-11.htm">Daniel 7:11 NASB</a> <a href="/kjv/daniel/7-11.htm">Daniel 7:11 KJV</a> <a href="//bibleapps.com/daniel/7-11.htm">Daniel 7:11 BibleApps.com</a> <a href="//bibliaparalela.com/daniel/7-11.htm">Daniel 7:11 Biblia Paralela</a> <a href="//holybible.com.cn/daniel/7-11.htm">Daniel 7:11 Chinese Bible</a> <a href="//saintebible.com/daniel/7-11.htm">Daniel 7:11 French Bible</a> <a href="/catholic/daniel/7-11.htm">Daniel 7:11 Catholic Bible</a> <a href="/daniel/7-11.htm">OT Prophets: Daniel 7:11 I saw at that time because (Dan.
