This imagery of horns as symbols of power and authority is consistent with other biblical passages, such as <a href="/revelation/17-12.htm">Revelation 17:12</a>, where horns also symbolize kings. The number ten may signify completeness or a full set of rulers within this empire.<p><b>and the other horn that came up</b><br>This other horn is often identified as a future ruler or power that emerges after the initial ten. In prophetic literature, such as in Daniel and Revelation, horns often symbolize leaders or kingdoms. This horn's emergence suggests a shift in power dynamics, indicating a new, significant force that disrupts the established order.<p><b>before which three of them fell</b><br>The phrase indicates that three of the original ten horns (kings or kingdoms) are subdued or overthrown by the new horn. This suggests a consolidation of power and a significant change in the political landscape. Historically, this could be seen as a reference to the rise of a dominant leader who eliminates rivals to establish control.<p><b>the horn whose appearance was more imposing than the others</b><br>This horn is described as more imposing, indicating its greater power or influence compared to the others. This could symbolize a particularly charismatic or forceful leader. The imposing nature of this horn suggests it has a significant impact on the world stage, aligning with descriptions of the Antichrist in eschatological interpretations.<p><b>with eyes and with a mouth that spoke words of arrogance</b><br>The eyes suggest intelligence or insight, while the mouth speaking arrogantly indicates blasphemy or prideful declarations against God. This description aligns with the characteristics of the "man of lawlessness" in <a href="/2_thessalonians/2-3.htm">2 Thessalonians 2:3-4</a>, who exalts himself above all that is called God. The imagery underscores the horn's defiance and opposition to divine authority, a common theme in apocalyptic literature.<div class="vheading2">Persons / Places / Events</div>1. <b><a href="/topical/d/daniel.htm">Daniel</a></b><br>The prophet who receives the vision.
