1. And now, my son Methuselah, I will show you all my visions that I have seen, recounting them to you.

2. I had two visions before I got married, and they were very different. The first one was when I was learning to write: the second one I saw a terrible vision before I married your mother.

3. I prayed to the Lord about these visions. I saw in a vision while at my grandfather Mahalaleel's house, the heaven collapse and fall to the earth.

4. When it fell, I saw the earth swallowed up in a great abyss, with mountains, hills, and trees being thrown into the abyss.

5. Then a word came to my mouth, and I cried out, saying, "The earth is destroyed!"

6. My grandfather Mahalaleel woke me up and asked why I was crying and lamenting.

7. I told him the whole vision, and he said, "You have seen a terrible thing, my son, the sin on earth must be destroyed with great destruction."

8. Now, son, pray to the Lord that a remnant may remain on earth, and that He does not destroy it entirely. From heaven, great destruction will come to the earth.

9. After this, I prayed, wrote down my prayer for future generations, and will show you everything, my son Methuselah.

10. After I went outside and saw the sun rise in the east, the moon set in the west, and the stars, I praised the Lord for His creation.

11. I blessed the Lord and spoke with my mouth and tongue that God had created for mankind to speak with.

12. "Blessed be You, O Lord, King, Great and mighty in Your greatness, Lord of all creation of the heaven, King of kings and God of the world.

13. Your power and kingship will last forever, and Your dominion will endure through all generations. All the heavens are Your throne, and the earth Your footstool forever.

14. You have made and rule all things, and nothing is too hard for You.

15. Wisdom does not depart from Your throne or turn away from Your presence.

16. You know, see, and hear everything, and nothing is hidden from You because You see everything.

17. The angels in the heavens have sinned and men's actions have brought upon them God's wrath until the day of judgment.

18. I pray to you, O God, to spare some of mankind on earth and not destroy all flesh, leaving the earth desolate for eternity.

19. Remove from the earth those who have angered You, but let the righteous and upright flourish as an everlasting seed, without turning away from the prayers of Your servant.

20. Following this, I had another dream, and I will share the entire vision with you, my son.

21. Enoch spoke to his son Methuselah, asking him to listen to the dream vision he had before marrying his mother, Edna.

22. In his vision, Enoch saw a white bull come out of the earth, followed by a heifer and two bulls, one black and one red. {Adam, Eve, Cain and Abel}

23. The black bull attacked and chased the red one, causing it to disappear from sight. {Cain eliminated Abel}

24. The black bull grew, accompanied by the heifer, and many oxen resembling him followed. {Cain's wife & seed}

25. The heifer searched for the red bull in vain, lamenting its loss and seeking it desperately. {Eve sought Abel}

26. Eventually, the black bull calmed the heifer and she stopped crying for the red bull.

27. The heifer then bore a white bull and later many white bulls and black cows. {Eve bore Seth and other sons/daughters}

28. The white bull grew to be great and produced more white bulls that resembled him.

29. Enoch saw a star fall from the heavens and feed among the oxen in his sleep. {Fallen Angel feed-fornicate}

30. The large black oxen changed their surroundings and lived together, along with their cattle. {Cain's descendants}

31. More stars descended from heaven to join the first star as bulls, grazing among the cattle. {More fallen angels fornicate}

32. These star-bulls impregnated the cows, leading to the birth of elephants, camels, and asses. {Begot Giants Nephilim}

33. The oxen were frightened by these beings, biting, devouring, and goring each other with their horns.

34. As they started to consume the oxen, the people of the earth trembled in fear and fled from the scene.

35. Witnessing the chaos, Enoch saw the earth cry out as the beings began to attack and eat each other. {Wars of Giants}

36. Looking up to heaven once more, Enoch saw white beings descending, with four of them taking him up to a high tower. {Holy Angels took Enoch into high heavenly place}

37. Three of these beings lifted Enoch away from the earth's inhabitants to show him the tower and the surrounding landscape.

38. Instructed to observe the elephants, camels, asses, stars, and oxen, Enoch watched as one of the beings bound and cast a fallen star into an abyss. {Leader of the fallen angel cast into bottomless pit by one of the Archangels}

39. The narrow and dark abyss was where the fallen star was imprisoned by the being, causing a quake on earth.

40. Another being armed elephants, camels, and asses with swords, leading to a violent confrontation that shook the earth.

41. As Enoch continued to watch, one of the beings cast the stars, resembling horses with human appendages, into an abyss.

42. In a mysterious exchange, one of the beings transformed the white bull into a man who constructed a vessel to live in with three other bulls. {Noah, his 3 sons & the Ark}

43. Once more, Enoch gazed at a vision of a heavenly roof with seven streams of water flowing into an enclosure. {Flood waters from heaven above}

44. Fountains opened on the surface of the enclosure, causing the water to rise and cover the entire area with its swelling tide.

46. The water continued to rise as darkness and mist enveloped it, overflowing and covering the entire enclosure.

47. All the animals gathered in the enclosure sank and perished in the rising water, unable to escape its depths.

48. While the vessel Enoch was shown floated above the water, all the other creatures drowned, disappearing from sight.

49. Enoch watched as the water drained from the high roof, leveling the chasms of the earth and revealing new abysses. {fountains of the deep}

50. As the water receded, light emerged, and the vessel settled on the earth, emerging from the darkness.

51. The transformed white bull emerged from the vessel with three other bulls, each of different colors, one of those three was white like that bull, and one of them was red as blood, and one black: and that white bull departed from them. {White - Shem, Red - Japheth, Black - Ham}

52. A new era began as diverse wild animals and birds emerged, including lions, tigers, wolves, dogs, hyenas, wild boars, foxes, squirrels, swine, falcons, vultures, kites, eagles, and ravens, while a white bull was born among them. {Abraham-white bull was born}

53. The animals started to reproduce and to bite one another, with the white bull giving birth to a wild ass and a white bull, leading to increasing numbers. {Wild Ass - Ishmael, white Bull - Isaac}. And the wild asses {Ishmaelites} multiplied. But that bull {Isaac} which was born from him begat a black wild boar {Esau} and a white sheep {Jacob}; and the former begat many boars, but that sheep begat twelve sheep {12 Tribes}.
54 And when those twelve sheep had grown, they gave up one of them {Joseph} to the asses {Ishmaelites}, and those asses again gave up that sheep to the wolves {Egyptians}, and that sheep grew up among the wolves.

55 And the Lord brought the eleven sheep to live with it and to pasture with it among the wolves: and they multiplied and became many flocks of sheep.

56 And the wolves began to fear them, and they oppressed them until they destroyed their little ones; till they cry aloud on account of their little ones, and to complain to their Lord.

57 And a sheep {Moses} which had been saved from the wolves fled and escaped to the wild asses {Midianites or descendants of Ishmael}; and I saw the sheep how they lamented and cried, and besought their Lord with all their might, till that Lord of the sheep descended at the voice of the sheep from a lofty abode, and came to them and pastured them.

58 And He called that sheep which had escaped the wolves, and spoke with it conceming the wolves that it should admonish them not to touch the sheep.

59. Following the Lord's guidance, the sheep approached the wolves and spoke to them, urging them not to harm the sheep again.

60. Despite the sheep's efforts, the wolves continued to oppress them, leading to further distress and outcry from the sheep.

61. The Lord intervened, causing the sheep to fight back against the wolves, who in turn lamented as the sheep remained calm.

62. Eventually, the sheep were able to escape from the wolves, who were blinded and continued to pursue them with all their might.

63. The Lord led the sheep as their leader, with a dazzling and glorious presence that inspired all the sheep to follow Him.

64. The wolves chased the sheep until they reached a divided sea, where the Lord stood between them, protecting the sheep from the wolves.

65. Unaware of the sheep's presence, the wolves followed them into the sea, only to be engulfed and drowned as the water rose around them.

66. Upon seeing the Lord, the wolves tried to flee, but the sea closed in on them, causing their demise as they were covered by the water.

67. Enoch witnessed the wolves' destruction as they perished in the sea while the sheep escaped to a barren wilderness.

68. In the wilderness, the Lord provided for the sheep, giving them water and grass as the sheep began to perceive their surroundings.

69. A particular sheep led the others to a high rock, where the Lord sent it back to pasture them.

70. The appearance of the Lord filled the sheep with fear and reverence as they trembled before His majesty.

71. The sheep recognized their inability to withstand the Lord's presence, feeling awe-struck by His power.

72. The leading sheep ascended the rock again, but some of the sheep strayed and became blinded, leading to the Lord's anger.

73. The angered Lord descended to the sheep, finding many blind and deviating from the right path.

74. Fearing the Lord's presence, the sheep desired to return to safety, while the leading sheep took action to guide the stray ones back.

75. Through the leading sheep's actions, the lost ones were brought back to the fold, restoring order and unity among the sheep.

76. In the vision, the sheep transformed into a man and built a house for the Lord, housing all the sheep within it.

77. As the previous leader sheep fell asleep, a new generation of sheep emerged, finding nourishment in a pasture by a stream of water. {Aaron died}

78. The transformed human-like leader sheep left their flock, causing the other sheep to seek and mourn for it deeply. {Moses disappeared, though died}

79. After the mourning period, two new sheep emerged as leaders in place of the departed ones, guiding the flock to a good and prosperous land. {Joshua & Phinehas}

80. The sheep found contentment in the pleasant land where the house built for the Lord stood, providing shelter and peace.

81. Periodically, the sheep's vision was clear, but at times obscured, until a new sheep arose and led them back, opening their eyes. {Era of the Judges}

82 And the dogs and the foxes and the wild boars began to devour those sheep till the Lord of the sheep raised up another sheep a ram from their midst, which led them. And that ram began to butt on either side those dogs, foxes, and wild boars till he had destroyed them all. {King era, Saul}

83 And that sheep whose eyes were opened saw that ram, which was amongst the sheep, till it forsook its glory and began to butt those sheep and trampled upon them, and behaved itself unseemly. {Samuel-Sheep with opened eyes}

84 And the Lord of the sheep sent the lamb to another lamb and raised it to being a ram and leader of the sheep instead of that ram which had forsaken its glory. {David}

85 And it went to it and spoke to it alone, and raised it to being a ram, and made it the prince and leader of the sheep; but during all these things those dogs oppressed the sheep. {Dogs-Philistines}

86 And the first ram pursued that second ram, and that second ram arose and fled before it; and I saw till those dogs pulled down the first ram. {Ram 1-Saul, Ram 2-David}

{This is about half the entire dreams Enoch saw: To be continued in the next post}

2. Virtuous people are admired and emulated while they are alive, and their influence continues even after they are gone. They are honored and respected throughout history.

3. On the other hand, the offspring of the wicked will not prosper and their descendants will not establish a lasting legacy.

4. Even if the unrighteous seem to flourish for a time, they will ultimately be uprooted and destroyed by their own wrongdoings.

5. Their legacy will not last, as their accomplishments will be hollow and unsatisfying.

6. Children born out of sin are a testimony to the wickedness of their parents and will bring shame upon them.

7. A righteous person, even if they die young, will find peace in the afterlife.

8. True wisdom and a blameless life are what truly make a person honorable, not simply the number of years they have lived.

9. Gray hair symbolizes wisdom, and a life lived without blemish is a sign of true old age.

10. A person who pleases God will be loved and respected, even in the midst of sinners.

11. The righteous will be protected from evil and deception, even in death.

12. The temptations of wickedness and desires can cloud a person's judgment and lead them astray.

13. A person who achieves perfection quickly will have a fulfilling life, even if it is cut short.

14. The soul that pleases God will be protected from wickedness and will be saved from harm.

15. Those who do not understand the grace and mercy of the chosen ones will be condemned when the righteous are vindicated.

16. A righteous person who dies young will condemn the ungodly who live long, showing that a life of virtue is more valuable than years of sin.

17. The ungodly will not understand the fate of the wise and righteous, but the Lord will protect and honor them.

18. The unrighteous will be despised and ultimately dishonored, while the righteous will be preserved in memory forever.

19. The wicked will be punished for their sins and their deeds will be evidence against them.

20. The ungodly will face judgment for their sins, and their wrongdoing will be exposed for all to see.

Wisdom 5:1-23

3. They will lament having mocked and derided him, now recognizing his true worth.

4. They will realize that they were foolish to disregard his righteous life and honorable end.

5. They will question why they did not recognize him as a child of God and among the saints.

6. They will acknowledge that they strayed from the path of truth and righteousness, living in darkness and ignorance.

7. They will see that their pursuit of lawlessness and destruction led them astray, and they did not follow the ways of the Lord.

8. They will realize that their arrogance, riches, and boasting brought them no true benefit.

9. Their worldly possessions and achievements will fade away like a passing shadow, leaving no lasting impact.

10. Their lives will be like a ship or a bird passing through, leaving no trace behind.

11. Their existence will be fleeting and insignificant, like a bird flying through the air.

12. They will pass through life without leaving a mark, like an arrow shot through the air.

13. Their lives will be consumed by wickedness, with no sign of virtue to show for their actions.

14. The hope of the ungodly will be fleeting and insubstantial, like chaff blown by the wind.

16. They will be crowned with dignity and beauty by the Lord, who will protect and shield them.

17. The Lord will use His power to punish His enemies and defend the righteous.

20. The forces of the world will join them in battle against their enemies.

21. Lightning and hailstones will be unleashed with precision and force.

22. The elements of nature will be turned against their enemies, overwhelming them with fury.

23. A mighty storm will sweep through the land, bringing desolation and justice to all.

DANIEL 4:26

[Daniel 4:26 NKJV] - “And inasmuch as they gave the command to leave the stump and roots of the tree, your kingdom shall be assured to you, after you come to know that Heaven rules.

[Daniel 4:26 AMP] - And in that it was commanded to leave the stump with the roots of the tree [in the earth], your kingdom shall be restored to you after you recognize (understand fully) that Heaven rules.

It's not just "Kingdom of God" but also "Kingdom of Heaven:" In this bible verse above, knowing that "Most High (God) Rules" also means knowing that "Heaven Rules." Father in heaven, I know and acknowledge that heaven rules the earth and men, but yet I pray Your Wil be done on earth as it is in heaven. For Your Will be done on earth as It is in heaven remains has been lacking in the earth where the Heaven rules.

Now a command to "Leave or spare the Tree's Roots and Stump in the Ground" carried two meaning: *1* It literally meant the tree shall not be uprooted though it be cut down, *2* It impliedly meant the Kingdom of Nebuchadnezzar shall be restored back to him after comes to the knowledge that the heaven rules.

So it's a message of "Restoration of Kingdom" through gaining certain "Knowledge." The Lord's apostles was seeking "Knowledge of the Time of Restoration of the Kingdom back to Israel," but that was neither the knowledge nor the restoration of kingdom the Lord called them to apostolate. As it is written,

[Acts 1:6‭-‬8 BSB] — So when they came together, they asked Him, “Lord, will You at this time restore the kingdom to Israel?” Jesus replied, “It is not for you to know times or seasons that the Father has fixed by His own authority. But you will receive power when the Holy Spirit comes upon you, and you will be My witnesses in Jerusalem, and in all Judea and Samaria, and to the ends of the earth.”

That was the last question the Apostles or any man asked the Lord before He ascended back to heaven — "Will You at this time restore the kingdom to Israel?"

—*a*— The Time the Lord would restore the Kingdom back to Nebuchadnezzar is when he knows and acknowledges "The heaven rules." But,

—*b*— The Time the Lord would restore the Kingdom back to Israel is not when Israel knows and acknowledges the heaven rules, but when Israel shall know and say, "Blessed is He who comes in the name of the Lord."

Nevertheless, just as Nebuchadnezzar's Tree was broken off but the root and stump were left in the ground pending the time of the restoration of the kingdom to him, even so were branches of Israel's Olive Tree broken off but the root for their restoration still holds for their time of restoration to come. As it is written,

[b][Romans 11:15‭-‬29] — "For if their being cast away is the reconciling of the world, what will their acceptance be but life from the dead? For if the firstfruit is holy, the lump is also holy; and if the root is holy, so are the branches. And if some of the branches were broken off, and you, being a wild olive tree, were grafted in among them, and with them became a partaker of the root and fatness of the olive tree, do not boast against the branches. But if you do boast, remember that you do not support the root, but the root supports you. You will say then, “Branches were broken off that I might be grafted in.” Well said. Because of unbelief they were broken off, and you stand by faith. Do not be haughty, but fear. For if God did not spare the natural branches, He may not spare you either. Therefore consider the goodness and severity of God: on those who fell, severity; but toward you, goodness, if you continue in His goodness. Otherwise you also will be cut off. And they also, if they do not continue in unbelief, will be grafted in, for God is able to graft them in again. For if you were cut out of the olive tree which is wild by nature, and were grafted contrary to nature into a cultivated olive tree, how much more will these, who are natural branches, be grafted into their own olive tree? For I do not desire, brethren, that you should be ignorant of this mystery, lest you should be wise in your own opinion, that blindness in part has happened to Israel until the fullness of the Gentiles has come in. And so all Israel will be saved, as it is written: “The Deliverer will come out of Zion, And He will turn away ungodliness from Jacob; For this is My covenant with them, When I take away their sins.” Concerning the gospel they are enemies for your sake, but concerning the election they are beloved for the sake of the fathers. For the gifts and the calling of God are without repentance."[/b]

Just like to Israel in this regard, the gifts and calling of God to Nebuchadnezzar too were without repentance, and hence there's restoration of the kingdom back to Nebuchadnezzar. But that was not the case with Saul, for to Saul as King of Israel the gifts and calling of God were with repentance and regrets; for God regretted or repented that He gave the kingdom to Saul in the first place, and He also rejected Saul from, after choosing him to, being king, [1 Samuel 15:35].

Look at the top Bible verse above: "A command to leave the Root and Stump of that Tree that was destroyed in the ground" - Let's name it 'Root is the Ground.' And I say, the message of the "Root in the Ground" was better than the message of the "Handwriting on the Wall."

*A* According to the meaning of the "Root in the Ground" — Your kingdom shall be restored to you when you know the heaven rules above and through your kingdom. But,

*B* According to the meaning of the "Handwriting on the Wall" — Your kingdom is taken away from you, splitted in two and shared to the Medes and the Persians,

There are those to who the Lord Jesus called blessed because to them is given the Kingdom of Heaven — "Blessed are the poor in spirit and the persecuted for righteousness sake, for theirs is the Kingdom of heaven" (Matthew 5:3,10). There are also those from who the Lord Jesus took away the kingdom of heaven and gave the Kingdom to others. As it is written,

[Matthew 21:43‭-‬44 AMP] — Therefore I tell you, the kingdom of God will be taken away from you and given to [another] people who will produce the fruit of it. And he who falls on this Stone will be broken to pieces; but he on whom it falls will be crushed.”

DANIEL 4:25

[Daniel 4:25 NKJV] - They shall drive you from men, your dwelling shall be with the beasts of the field, and they shall make you eat grass like oxen. They shall wet you with the dew of heaven, and seven times shall pass over you, till you know that the Most High rules in the kingdom of men, and gives it to whomever He chooses.

[Daniel 4:25 GWN] - "You will be forced away from people and live with the wild animals. You will eat grass like cattle. The dew from the sky will make you wet. And seven time periods will pass until you realize that the Most High has power over human kingdoms and that he gives them to whomever he wishes."


The Goal in that deliberation on Ahab in the general meeting in heaven was this: "Who will persuade Ahab to go up to Ramoth-Gilead and fall?" From the view of the goal, the methods or ways of achieving the goal was heard and the spirit with the best suggestion or the most likely to succeed bidder was awarded the job of achieving that goal, which was to persuade or convince Ahab the king to march into war against Ramoth-Gilead.

The Goal in that deliberation on Job in the general meeting was this: 'To persuade Satan that there is a man (Job) Satan had never been able to make to fall out from the fear of God into any kind of Satan's temptation or sin" (Satan succeded in making Adam and Eve to sin against God and made many to also sin, but Job was out of Satan's abilities). From the view of the goal, Satan blamed the hedge, the health and the prosperity of God given to Job as the reason for Satan's failures at making Job to sin or blaspheme God. Satan's requests for achieving the goal was heard and those things that made Job secure/protected, rich/wealthy, and healthy, were transferred into Satan's hand/possession: - Change of ownership transpired over the things Job had, for they were now given to Satan. If Satan liked he could allow Job to continue having them or if not he could take them away from Satan, if those were the resources he needed to try and either prove God wrong about Job or Satan would get persuaded that a man or son of man could overcome him in weakness, in sickness, in sorrow and in poverty, just as much as in strength, in health, in comfort and in prosperity/riches.

In the top Bible verse above, the goal was this: "Persuade Nebuchadnezzar at the peak or summit of his heaven-reaching greatness and worldwide boundless dominion that there's an Invisible Ruler, the Most High, who rules in the kingdoms of men even when those kingdoms of men literally have visible kings." This was not able convincing an Atheist that an Invisible God true exists, but convincing a king of kings that an Invisible Ruler rules even in his dominion and kingdoms of men, and that this Invisible Ruler is the Most High, higher than the highest. Others are just higher authority, but He is the Highest Authority or Most High or the Supreme overall.

There was a time Israel asked Samuel for a king over Israel, as in, a man to rule over them. Samuel was displeased because their setting up a physical man as king meant rejecting the Invisible and Most High God as King, preferring the kingdoms of men instead of the Kingdom of God as other kingdoms or nations (1 Samuel . So the presence of a physical king in the kingdoms of men was supposed to mean the absence of the reign of God there, but that was not the case atall: Rather the presence of physical kings, rulers or governments, enhanced more of the Invisible influence, rulership and control of the Most High in those Kingdoms of Men or kingdoms where men were the visible kings/rulers.

Here, the goal was to persuade and establish to even the worlds outside Israel, that the Most High do not need the absence of a man king to rule in the kingdom of men; but instead He now gives those kingdoms to the men He chooses, particularly the humble and basest of them. (This Humility or Lowliness in the men God gives the Kingdom of Men was an important detail Daniel omitted in his interpretation in the top bible verse above, which is why when Daniel advised the king on this matter, Daniel only mentioned repentance to righteousness and mercy but omitted humility. So later this terrible thing still happened to Nebuchadnezzar, not because of lacking righteousness in sin nor lacking mercy towards the poor, but because of lacking humility in pride. Daniel was yet to fully grasp grace and treasures of humility as at then).

Since the goal was to persuade such great king that the Most High rules in the Kingdoms of men, how that plays out for two rulers or two captain to be in the same ship, is not just by one being invisible (Even though Invisibility does not mean Absence of the Most High); rather it is basically by the visible one remaining in the humility to the Invisible and the Invisible being the Most High and the Kingmaker to the visible man who is king over the kingdom. This is more message of Humility and the fact that God exalts the humble and pulls down the proud, than it is a message of righteousness or mercy of sitting king. Yes, a king's throne is established by righteousness and mercy according to "Proverbs 16:12, 25:5, Isaiah 16:5;" but the goal of the visions was not about establishing the throne of Nebuchadnezzar but about establishing the Most High's Rules and Authority in Kingmaking in the kingdoms of men. So it's basically "Humility" for it's not the king man proving himself to God, but rather God proving Himself to men that He rules and ordains higher powers/government as well as pulls down/removes them.

Imagine two Arms of Government or Kingdom: One Arm is the Executive, the head, the Commander in Chief and the Sole Administrator. But the other Arm is usually behind the scenes, and the most potent power this arm has is the ability to either impeach/remove the other arm or make/ordain anyone of his choice to replace the Executive Arm anytime. The first Arm is the Decree-Maker or Executive Order or Commander in Chief, but the second Arm is the King-Maker. Which of these two Arms has more power than the other? Supposing you have Apps, AIs, Bots, and Machines, that can execute things far more efficiently than you, and command more than you do or know to do, and are stronger than you, but you have the power to install and uninstall them, to program and deprogram them anytime.

It's simple, the Watchers wanted to prove the point to the greatest earthly king then that He (the Most High) rules in the kingdoms of men: and that point is to be proven by removing that sitting king whom no earth man could have removed from being king except those higher than him; and after proving the Most High can remove him from the kingdom, seven years later they would prove to him the second part/aspect that the Most High can give or make even the most base or downtrodden to become king of the kingdoms of men, when they again return him back into his kingdom without him seeing how possible for him to get that back.

The Centurion, in proving he was a man under authority but also a man with authority, could command those under him to do this or go to anywhere, and they would do as he said. The Lord Jesus, in proving He had power on earth to forgive sins, gave an order to a paralyzed man (whose paralysis was judgment or retribution for his sins) to rise up against the paralysis and walk free from the paralysis, and it was so.

When God was challenging Job to prove to God that Job has powers or abilities as a god, God taunted Job to do some things if he could, and if he does them even God Himself would praise or confess to Job. One of the things God wanted Job to prove himself with is for Job to look at all the proud men on earth and humble them low. That ability to humble/abase the proud and to exalt the base/humble is an attribute of divinity. There are Beasts, Dragons or Proud Elements (including the former Lucifer and the Antichrist) that if you can abase them, then you have proven your divinity in and beyond kingdom authority. As it is written,

[Job 40:9‭-‬14 NKJV] — Have you an arm like God? Or can you thunder with a voice like His? Then adorn yourself with majesty and splendor, And array yourself with glory and beauty. Disperse the rage of your wrath; Look on everyone who is proud, and humble him. Look on everyone who is proud, and bring him low; Tread down the wicked in their place. Hide them in the dust together, Bind their faces in hidden darkness. Then I will also confess to you That your own right hand can save you.

Let's conclude the top Bible verse above with these five enumerations:

*1* The Goal of getting that great King of Babylon empire to know and confess that "The Most High rules in the Kingdoms of men and appoints their Kings as He pleases (and that their pride cannot prevent Him from removing them, neither can humbleness or baseness prevent Him from making them kings).

*2* To get Nebuchadnezzar the great king at that point to know and acknowledge that, as in the goal, required removing king Nebuchadnezzar from being king (and later returning him to being king), which was humanly impossible to do in all nations of the world then. No coup d'etat or conspiracy or group of people/kings could have removed Nebuchadnezzar from being king.

*3* Even if God removed Nebuchadnezzar from being king, wherever he goes or wherever he is among men, people would still take him as king because his dominion already reached the ends of the earth. So it was not possible for Nebuchadnezzar to not be king and walk as ordinary man on earth again, unless death separates him from the living and from the kingdom. He was that head of gold in the vision, not just his kingdom, and he was that tree. The kingdom and the man (Nebuchadnezzar) were one or the same at that time.

*4* So the only way to remove or separate him from the kingdom without his death among the living, was by removing or separating him from humanity, from being a man. Because even if he was a madman, he would still be king or kingdom of a mad king. But the wisdom of God separated him from being a man into being an beast or animal that eats grass and totally off from normal society being able to have any use for him. The Most High and His Watchers worked that purpose.

*5* To keep him away from the kingdom and therefore from his pride, was to keep him away from being a man: for once he becomes a man again, the kingdom would automatically go back to reuniting with Nebuchadnezzar. But He who was able to separate Nebuchadnezzar from the kingdom for seven years to where he could never return from by human strength and was able return him back after seven years from where no human abilities or technology could have returned him from, He who accomplished these on him is surely the Most Ruler in the kingdoms of men, and the King-maker as well as the man-maker thereof. They said, "To be a man is not a day's job;" but they shall say, "To be a man is God's job." For He who made the beast become man in a day is He who made the man become king of the kingdoms in a day.

DANIEL 4:24

[Daniel 4:24 BSB] - This is the interpretation, O king, and this is the decree that the Most High has issued against my Lord the king:

[Daniel 4:24 FBV] - This is what it means, Your Majesty, and what the Most High has decreed will happen to my Lord the king.



In this bible verse, the Interpreter guaranteed "The interpretation/meaning" of the vision and "The Decree/Saying of the Most High" were exactly the same. This means, the interpretation or meaning the interpreter was going to share on that vision/scripture was not going to be different from what the Most High God decreed or said and meant in the same.

I have crossed interpreters, teachers or pastors who when they interpret, explain or give meaning to God's scriptures, prophecies or visions, their interpretation or message would be different from that which the Most high God decreed, declared or is even saying by those scriptures or signs. They do this especially when they are in the presence of a king, politician, governor, rich men or powerful men. E.g.

Four hundred prophets were prophesying before two kings, telling those kings to go up against Ramoth-Gilead and prosper with divine prosperity, and one made horn sign and gave the interpretation/meaning in the same tune of God endorsing those kings, and they sincerely felt the Spirit of God was the one moving them, but it was a lying spirit that came upon those prophets, and their interpretation or message was different from what the Most High decreed upon that king, Ahab.

[2 Chronicles 18:11‭-‬24 BSB] — [b]And all the prophets were prophesying the same, saying, “Go up to Ramoth-gilead and prosper, for the Lord will deliver it into the hand of the king.” Then the messenger who had gone to call Micaiah instructed him, “Behold, with one accord the words of the prophets are favorable to the king. So please let your words be like theirs, and speak favorably.” But Micaiah said, “As surely as the Lord lives, I will speak whatever my God tells me.” When Micaiah arrived, the king asked him, “Micaiah, should we go to war against Ramoth-gilead, or should we refrain?” “Go up and triumph,” Micaiah replied, “for they will be given into your hand.” But the king said to him, “How many times must I make you swear not to tell me anything but the truth in the name of the Lord?” So Micaiah declared: “I saw all Israel scattered on the hills like sheep without a shepherd. And the Lord said, ‘These people have no master; let each one return home in peace.’” Then the king of Israel said to Jehoshaphat, “Did I not tell you that he never prophesies good for me, but only bad?” Micaiah continued, “Therefore hear the word of the Lord: I saw the Lord sitting on His throne, and all the host of heaven standing on His right and on His left. And the Lord said, ‘Who will entice Ahab king of Israel to march up and fall at Ramoth-gilead?’ And one suggested this, and another that. Then a spirit came forward, stood before the Lord, and said, ‘I will entice him.’ ‘By what means?’ asked the Lord. And he replied, ‘I will go out and be a lying spirit in the mouths of all his prophets.’ ‘You will surely entice him and prevail,’ said the Lord. ‘Go and do it.’ So you see, the Lord has put a lying spirit in the mouths of these prophets of yours, and the Lord has pronounced disaster against you.” Then Zedekiah son of Chenaanah went up, struck Micaiah in the face, and demanded, “Which way did the Spirit of the Lord go when He departed from me to speak with you?” Micaiah replied, “You will soon see, on that day when you go and hide in an inner room.”[/b]

Behold in the top Bible verse above, Daniel would still give the true meaning or true interpretation and message that exactly matches what the Most High God has pronounced or decreed upon the king Nebuchadnezzar, inspite of his human feelings for his lord or boss, Nebuchadnezzar the king, and though he earlier wished it applies to the enemy or hater of his boss and not to him. It was not a pleasant message or interpretation to say to a king or dignitaries that one respects, but it's required in a steward or servant of Christ that a man be found faithful and true as handlers of the Words of the Most High God and the Gospel.

[2 Corinthians 2:17 ICB] — We do not sell the word of God for a profit as many other people do. But in Christ we speak the truth before God. We speak as men sent from God.

[1 Thessalonians 2:3‭-‬6 BSB] — For our appeal does not arise from deceit or ulterior motives or trickery. Instead, we speak as those approved by God to be entrusted with the gospel, not in order to please men but God, who examines our hearts. As you know, we never used words of flattery or any pretext for greed. God is our witness! Nor did we seek praise from you or from anyone else, although as apostles of Christ we had authority to demand it.

Let your interpretation or explanation of prophecies/scriptures be the same as the sayings/decrees of the Spirit of God to the churches, and do not make sectarian or private interpretation to what the Spirit of God is saying to the churches. As it is written,

[2 Peter 1:20-21] — "Knowing this first, that no prophecy of the scripture is of any private interpretation. For the prophecy came not in old time by the will of man: but holy men of God spoke as they were moved by the Holy Ghost."

[1 Peter 4:11] — "If any man speak, let him speak as the oracles of God; if any man minister, let him do it as of the ability which God gives: that God in all things may be glorified through Jesus Christ, to whom be praise and dominion for ever and ever. Amen."

DANIEL 4:23

[Daniel 4:23 AFV] - And as the king saw a watcher and a holy one coming down from heaven, and saying, 'Cut the tree down and destroy it; yet leave the stump of the roots of it in the earth, even with a band of iron and bronze, in the tender grass of the field; and let it be wet with the dew of heaven, and let his portion be with the animals of the field until seven times pass over him.'

[Daniel 4:23 GNB] - While your majesty was watching, an angel came down from heaven and said, 'Cut the tree down and destroy it, but leave the stump in the ground. Wrap a band of iron and bronze around it, and leave it there in the field with the grass. Let the dew fall on this man, and let him live there with the animals for seven years.'



It's in one and same dream, but that one dream contained two basic visions. It's like how they say in drama or theatre art, "Act One, Scene one and Scene Two." In the beginning of "Revelation 12" John wrote he saw a wonder appear in heaven consisting of a woman clothed with the sun, moon under her feet and crown of 12 stars on her head, being at the point of childbearing. Then suddenly another wonder appeared in the same heaven consisting of a great red dragon with seven heads with the specific number of crowns. Each of these were different visions or appearances made in the same revelation in as much as both of them did not appear at the same time in that revelation or dream.

So if they do not appear or occur at the same time in the environment/platform of the dream or revelation, and one suddenly appeared or occured into the realm that the first already appeared or had been, then they are two or more distinct visions in the same dream or revelation. So Nebuchadnezzar had a dream but had visions in the dream according to Daniel 4:5

In the top Bible verse above, Daniel the interpreter was beginning the refferencing and interpreting of the second vision Nebuchadnezzar saw in that dream. The first vision was focusing on the glories, beauties, strengths, powers, greatness, dominion, fame and activities of that Tree. But herein was the second vision focusing on "He/What came after to undo what came before."

Have this clue, when you have a dream in which the first vision brings the building up or goodness of some things in the vision, but later there came in another vision or appearance of some things bringing the destruction or pulling down of what was built or good in the first comer, then take that clue as a sign that the interpretation of the dream will have unpleasant or bad news ending. Better to begin seeing things down or bad in condition in a dream but in the ending things were built or improved, than seeing them built and good in the beginning of a dream but in the ending they were ruined.

Let it occur to you that many of the Kings that had troubling dreams and visions of their heads in the night saw things in the beginning of their dream in good conditions, but later saw the latter condition of those things getting ruined or destroyed by the second visions/comers that appeared in the same dream. For example:

*A* Pharaoh of Egypt first saw seven fatted cows (built and in good conditions) come out of the river nile in the first vision of his first dream; but later in the same dream saw seven terrible cows (in bad conditions) come out of the same river in the second vision or appearance of that first dream; and the second comers devoured or ruined the first comers.

*B* Pharaoh of Egypt second dream was like the first dream, only that the elements were now plants of corn instead of cows.

*C* Chief Baker of Pharaoh in prison first saw in his dream three white baskets full of baked food or confectionaries for Pharaoh (good things) in his first vision; but later in his second vision of the same dream the birds appeared devouring or ruining the food stuffs in those baskets on his head (bad news).

*D* Nebuchadnezzar's first dream had a vision of a giant statue of man (built and in good conditions) standing tall in the first vision of his first dream; but later in the same dream he saw a Stone cut without hands fell upon the feet of the statue in the second vision or appearance of that first dream; and the second comer (the Stone) destroyed or ruined the first comer, the Wind that blew inside the dream helped the Stone in eradicating every traces of the Statue. However, that dream did not truly end in sorrow or bad news because the Stone that destroyed the first comer suddenly began to grew and enlarge into greatness and dominion far more greater than the first comer had ever been to filling the entire globe. That was not just goodnews but gospel. For unlike how the seven terrible cows that devoured the seven fatted ones did not become built-up or great in Pharaoh's dream but remained as terrible as they were after destroying the built and good ones; the Stone in Nebuchadnezzar's dream destroyed but also built up far greater than it destroyed in the same dream.

*E* Nebuchadnezzar's second dream had a vision of a great heaven-reaching tree (built and in good conditions) standing and doing prosperously in the first vision of his second dream; but later in the same dream he saw a Watcher (holy One) appear coming down from heaven and sentenced that tree to a judgment that would cut the tree down, destroy it but not total destruction because its stump would still be spared but bound with brass and steel, and the man of the tree driven into sharing portions and heart with the beasts of the field, getting wet from heavenly dews but eating grassess trampled by animals for seven years in the second vision or appearance of that second dream; and the second comer (the Watcher and His Declaration) destroyed or ruined the first comer. However, there was comtemplation of hope and gospel of restoration or rebuilding what was destroyed or ruined in a new, different or better way.

I already shared some of the things to understand about the watcher's speech and things said in the top bible verse above when the top bible verse was "Daniel 4:13-17" in my preceding commentaries. I would upload them in my website after i am done with this chapter.

DANIEL 4:22

[Daniel 4:22 BSB] - You, O king, are that tree! For you have become great and strong; your greatness has grown to reach the sky, and your dominion extends to the ends of the earth.

[Daniel 4:22 GNB] - "Your Majesty, you are the tree, tall and strong. You have grown so great that you reach the sky, and your power extends over the whole world.



The Lord is that Spirit the filled the heavens and earth,but Nebuchadnezzar the king was that Tree whose greatness reached the heavens and whose dominion extends throughout the entire earth. Thus was the final establishment of the Link or Connection of the Tree in the Vision to the physical man. Not every man has been able to point the character or person in a mysterious vision, prophecy or revelation, to a man or woman in the physical. When the Son of Man, Jesus Christ, walked the earth, not every spiritual man was able to link or point to Him as He who was prophesied, foretold or revealed to come. Even those who knew the prophecy that Elijah must come first before Messiah comes, they were still preaching and teaching that while right under their nose John the Baptist was the Elijah to come and the Lord Jesus was the Christ or Messiah, but they still could not link those who were in prophecies/visions to those who they were neighboring with.

That is basic difference between "Having Knowledge/Understanding" and "Having Discernment" as an interpreter. Not all interpreters who have the understanding or knowledge also have the discernment to connect, link or recognise in physical what they already know in the spiritual. Discernment is the ability to know the physical or manifest linkage/connection to hidden, invisible or spiritual things/ideas/personalities.

My point here is that there may be interpreters who can explain the idea, theory or exegesis, of a vision, revelation, scripture or sign, but yet those interpreters cannot connect or link even the actors or characters in their theories to practical identification or recognition of them. Just as the Lord Jesus Christ was walking with the two on the road to Emmaus from Jerusalem; and the LORD Himself was explaining everything from books to books of the scriptures the things written about Him (Jesus) to the two, and they were understanding the link, but failed to know/discern on time the most important link of knowing the same Man talking to them is the Man in the revelations, prophecies, visions etc. It's like some who are good in mathematics but cannot apply his knowledge of mathematics into practical daily activities or like someone good in video games or movies but do not have same intuition in practical living as he does in virtual/abstract worlds.

Somehow, some of the people who condemned or rejected the Lord Jesus Christ were teachers or interpreters who knew the law and the prophets about Him but did not have ability of discerning or linking the Character in their ideal knowledge/doctrine to the Man manifest before them. Even now, there may be interpreters who understand the theories about the Antichrist, but that does not mean they can easily discern or point to any man on earth and say this man is that man in the vision or prophesy. Who was that disciple of the Lord that found Nathanael and said, "We have found Him of whom Moses wrote in the Law and the Prophets, Jesus of Nazareth, the son of Joseph." And Nathanael asked him, "Can anything good come out of Nazareth?" He was Philip of Bathsaida, who was able to link the Man in physical with the Man in Moses and the Prophets writings and prophecies.

Supposing two ministers of God, Mr. A and Mr. B, do give words of knowledge or interpretation:

*1* Mr. A would speak in the midst of a crowded congregation, saying, "The Lord says there is someone here, this and that happened or will happen to you." But Mr. A does not even know who he is talking about nor can he identify the person among the crowd assuming the Lord said that to him. And because there's probability or chance of such among the crowd so that even more than one person could fit that description, all the crowd would just shout Amen to that Mr. A's speech.

*2* On the other hand, Mr. B speaking in the midst of similar crowded congregation, saying the same thing but very precise, pointing out either the name, the marks, the personal identification, coloration or description of the person's identity in the midst of the multitude, without any ambiguity nor playing with chances.

Surely, Mr. B is better interpreter because he is not only able to link spiritual things to spiritual alone, but he is also able to link spiritual things to physical in the realities of flesh and blood.

Thus, Daniel a higher interpreter was able to link the spiritual or figurative to the physical, saying, "You, o king, are that Tree" (that was seen in the vision). And Daniel also explained the reason to be because "For you have become great and strong; your greatness has grown to reach the sky, and your dominion extends to the ends of the earth." That tree was reflecting his achievements and what he had become in the heights and expanse of man's epitome of strength, greatness and dominion.

Talking about "Greatness and Dominion" as applied by Daniel here: Both grew, but they did not grow in the same axis or direction:

*A* Greatness grows Vertically - reaching through the heavens in height

*B* Dominion grows Horizontally - expanding in territories until reaching the ends of all the earth.

Greatness is measured in heights, and Dominion is measured in spans/spreads. And since there were not too many things in visions or dreams that either grew from earth to heavens in height or grew to cover the entire earth in spreads, let mention dreams or visions that had any of such in the bible.

1. The Flood of Noah [Both Greatness (height) and Dominion (spread)], the Smoking of the Fire and Brimstone that destroyed Sodom and Gomorrah [height only], the Tower of Babel pursuing height or greatness.

2. The Ladder in Jacob's dream (Greatness with height reaching heaven) and the Stone in Nebuchadnezzar's first dream that grew in spread as a Mountain that covered the entire earth (Dominion/Kingdom of Heaven). Both that Ladder and the Stone link to the Lord Jesus Christ.

3. O Lord, Be You exalted above all heavens, and let Your Glory be above all the earth (Psalms 57:5,11), and the earth shall be filled with the knowledge of the glory of the LORD, as the waters cover the sea (Habakkuk 2:14).

4. In Revelation, the sins or iniquities of Babylon was so great that it reached the heavens in height having spread her fornication through out the world (Revelation 18:5). But in better contrast, the faithfulness and Righteousness of God reaches far more into the heavens than the sins of Babylon. As it is written,

LORD, Your stedfast Love extends to the heavens; Your Faithfulness reaches to the skies. Your Righteousness is towering like the majestic mountains; your Wisdom is like the depths of the sea. People and animals are in Your care. (Psalms 36:5-6)

DANIEL 4:21

[Daniel 4:21 BSB] — whose foliage was beautiful and whose fruit was abundant, providing food for all, under which the beasts of the field lived, and in whose branches the birds of the air nested—

[Daniel 4:21 AKJV] — "Whose leaves were fair, and the fruit thereof much, and in it was meat for all; under which the beasts of the field dwelled, and on whose branches the fowls of the heaven had their habitation:"


In this bible verse above, the interpreter (Daniel) continued linking together the various aspects and multidimensionality of the same Tree, especially considering one cannot naturally point to any earthly Tree that has/does all of those things that same Tree had/did in the top bible verses or in the vision. On earth as it is now, these attributes ascribed to that one Tree would have been distributed among various trees or would take almost all trees around coming together to achieve what that single Tree had achieved alone in the vision. Examples:

*1* A Tree whose leaves (foliage) were beautiful and fair: The tree that has this must be among the "Lilies or Flower-Trees" and such trees that have beautiful leaves or are as fair flowers usually have thorns in their branches, weak branches or produce little food/fruits for all. While many of the Trees that produce more food/fruits come with leaves that are not so attractive nor beautiful. But that Tree in the Visionic Dream had/did all these qualities as single (body count).

*2* A Tree whose fruit was abundant, and providing food for all: Naturally, you don't find one earthly tree capable of bearing fruits for all, or have abundance of food for all nations and creatures on earth. It takes almost all the food crops and fruit trees to produce enough to feed the whole world, not one single tree alone. But that Tree in the Visionic Dream had/did all these qualities singularly.

*3* A Tree under which the Beasts of the Field dwelt: Naturally, you don't find an earthly tree capable of bearing or accommodating various beasts of the field alone unless that tree is big enough to fund the entire building of Noah's Ark from its resources alone. But that Tree in the Visionic Dream had/did all these qualities alone. Technically, the Beasts of the Field became the Beasts of that Tree.

*4* A Tree on whose branches the Birds of heaven had their habitats: Naturally, you don't find an earthly tree capable of bearing or accommodating various birds of heaven alone. But that Tree in the Visionic Dream had/did all these qualities alone. Technically, the Birds of heaven became Birds of that Tree.

People have said, "Jack of all trades is master of none;" but that Tree was doing all those and was also master of them all. Yet, the Tree's body count was one person.

Remember, the interpreter was establishing the linking in the top bible verse above, and we saw that tree alone doing what naturally would take an entire group or collection of various trees to do. Yet that does mean or link the Tree in the vision to represent multiple persons; rather inspite of all those feats, the tree was just one single individual: (Not a nation, not an organization or a body of people).

In contrast to this, there are visions in which one tree, one man or one animal, represent different people or kingdoms, just as Nebuchadnezzar's first dream was a statue of one man but in interpretation that one man represented various kings of kings or kingdoms till the endtimes. Example of a Tree that represents various people is as the True Vine (The Lord Jesus) while the Branches and Fruits on that Vine are His People. As Paul related, One Body but having many Members of the One Body represent different people. Or a beast in a vision, in which the beast is one but having a number of heads and horns that represent different individuals.

In the preceding top bible verse I pointed out that lookalikes, semblance or ethnicity in visions do not determine a True Interpreter's linkage or connectivity; rather the Mind or Message of God through the interpreter determines the links or connection. But in this top bible verse I hereby point out that true interpreters also have "Numbering System or Number Bases" different from how natural people would statistically number or count persons, times or things in a vision.

Like Joseph the interpreter, three branches of a vine tree may not represent people but represent three days (time), while seven tree of corn in one stalk represent seven years. Interpreters have the Mind of God to know His message or meaning intended when they hear or behold the coded and encrypted data in a heavenly vision/communication: This usually come as Word of Knowledge in them.

UNVEILING THE TREE-LINK

DANIEL 4:20

[Daniel 4:20 NKJV] — “The tree that you saw, which grew and became strong, whose height reached to the heavens and which could be seen by all the earth,

[Daniel 4:20 AMPC] — The tree that you saw, which grew [great] and was strong, whose height reached to the heavens and which was visible to all the earth,



In this bible verse above, the interpreter (Daniel) began to unveil the eyes of the seer (Nebuchadnezzar the visioner/dreamer) in the same vision the seer saw with the references to the things he saw and knew, particularly the details of the tree.

Many times, unveiling the eyes that already see so that the eyes can see through unveiled (or without veil) clearly, is like making someone to see things in 3D (Three dimensions) that he already saw in 2D (Two Dimensions) or to perceive things in 4D (Four dimensions) that he already or only saw in 3-D.

However in spiritual terms, we are not after seeing things in dimensions, but seeing things in how God and His Holy Heavens see those things. So our 2D, 3D, 4D, 5D etc, are simply seeing things by the Holy Spirit of God from and as the Sight of God views/sees them, with eternal parameters and seeing the links or connections. Sometimes all unveiling the eyes just needs is to make a seer see the links or connections, just as Daniel was about to make Nebuchadnezzar to see the link or connection of that tree to himself the seer. That's in situations when you do not know the person or thing you are seeing is either you, your loved one, or the Lord Himself, because of the appearance or masking. There are also cases of false links or presumptions that unveiling the eyes breaks off from how the seer saw those things in self-centeredness or selfish ambition. It's like when Haman presumed (falsely linked) or read himself into being the man the kingdom of Persia (that overthrew Nebuchadnezzar's Babylonian kingdom) wished to honor and to give national/international awards, just because the king favored and enquired from him. Such false links are called "Deceptions" by which Lucifer was deceived, and the devil uses such to deceive; but unveiling the eyes cast such deceptions away.

Talking about "Linking or Connections" in unveiling of a Seer's: — In the top bible above, Daniel the interpreter began "Linking" that Tree which the Seer Saw until he finally linked that Tree to the Seer's Being:

*1* First, Daniel linked: — The tree that you saw links to that tree which grew; - The fact that there was "Growing up" or "Increase" that brought some changes to that tree he saw does not make the grown tree different from the first sighted.

*2* Secondly, Daniel linked: — The same tree is that which grew strong: — The fact that there was "Growing Strength" or "Increase in Might" that brought some changes to that tree he saw does not make the stronger tree different from the first sighted.

*3* Thirdly, Daniel linked: — The same tree is that whose height reached the heavens: — The fact that there was "Growing Height" or "Increase in Tallness" that brought some changes to that tree he saw does not make the stronger tree different from the first sighted, even when the top of the tree was in the heavens, the watchers in the holy heavens were talking about the tree as the trending news

*4* Fourthly, Daniel linked: — The same tree he saw is that which was seen and visible in all the earth: — The fact that there was migration from "obscurity" to "worldwide visibility or fame" so that the tree that was once hidden could no longer be hidden anywhere or by any covering/building on earth did not change it. Are you the same tree he first sighted when you could only be seen by caring visioners in dreams that appeared unreal, but now even outside dreams or special visions everybody sees you without needing binoculars to see you? Yes, the same.

So the interpreter established the links or connection: For there are "Differences or Changes" in mysterious visions that are more connected or linked in sameness or similarities, than the seemingly similarities or likeness in them are connected. For example:

Pharaoh had two dreams or visions in the same night: In one vision, there were seven fatted cows and seven lean cows - all having one common similarity of being "Cows" or "Cattle family." In the second vision, there were seven fatted plants or trees of corn and then seven lean trees of corn on one stalk - all having one common similarity of being plants of the same seedling. But when Joseph the interpreter began establishing their "Linking" or "Connection;" he revealed the seven fatted cows were more related or same with fat trees of corn than they appear related to their family of cattle or grain. Their natural boundaries of specie and similitude was not used in judging their linking or connection; rather their roles in the message of God which they represented in the communication is what is used to establish their links or connection. It's like saying, a foreigner from outside your family, tribe or country is more related or linked to you in same calling and goals than your own brethren or members of your own sects who are more likely to devour you like the Lean cows/trees devoured their fatted brethren.

Nathan gave a parable of a poor man that was living with a sheep he treated as his daughter, so that he shared things in common with that sheep until a rich man somewhere came and grab that poor man's sheep to prepare meat for his visitor (traveller) even though the rich man had many sheep of his own that he did not want to use. In the linkage, the sheep in the parable was more linked to humans than to animal sheep. Sheep in that parable here were wives, visitor here meant sexual urge/libido that came to the rich man, the rich man was David the king, the poor man was Uriah, and the poor man's sheep that was butchered and used for meat to the rich man's visitor was Uriah's wife (married woman) that David took and slept with inorder to meet his sexual urge and libido in adultery which is fornication
[2 Samuel 12:1-12].

ATTUNEMENT OF A MAN OF GOD

DANIEL 4:19

[Daniel 4:19 AKJV] — "Then Daniel, whose name was Belteshazzar, was astonished for one hour, and his thoughts troubled him. The king spoke, and said, Belteshazzar, let not the dream, or the interpretation thereof, trouble you. Belteshazzar answered and said, My lord, the dream be to them that hate you, and the interpretation thereof to your enemies."

[Daniel 4:19 FBV] — When Daniel (also called Belteshazzar) heard this, he was upset for a while, disturbed as he thought about it. The king told him, “Belteshazzar, don't be worried about the dream and what it means.” “My Lord, I only wish this dream was for those who hate you and the explanation for your enemies,” Daniel replied.



Daniel too was troubled by that dream (vision) of the king: but his disturbance was not arising from lacking capacity to comprehend, understand or interpret the dream (vision) meaning (unlike the case with the others disturbed/troubled by it before Daniel); instead, Daniel's disturbance (troubling) arose from understanding or knowing the meaning (interpretation) and message but lacking capacity to alter (change), prevent or redirect the application or implication of the dream (vision) away from his lord (Nebuchadnezzar) to apply to the enemies (haters) of his lord.

What a vision? If you hear or see it without knowing its meaning you are in trouble, and if you hear or see it knowing its meaning or message you are also in trouble and responsibility is on you to help save or warn those who are in danger thereof or targeted. So the only way to avoid trouble that comes with either not knowing or knowing the meaning of such visions (mysteries) is by never hearing or seeing them (unawareness/cluelessness). Yet even with that, ignorance or lack of knowledge destroys the oblivious (clueless).

Nevertheless, such troubling or fears like Daniel had in the bible verse above was neither from God nor endorsed by God. It does not always please God when we find His messages fearful, disturbing and scary, when in reality and in truth the messages of God are glorious, wonderful, attractive, full of wisdom and riches: our fallen nature sees His Truths as bitter, when His Truths are sweeter than honey. So God doesn't play mind games with us, but reality and truth: God is Fearful, and the Fear of God is the Beginning of true Wisdom; but also and more so, God is Love, and the Love of God is the Height of true Wisdom.

We saw the Watcher (holy one) from heaven come and speak that message to the king in dream without the Watcher being troubled or disturbed by the message to the king. If the holy one from heaven was not disturbed/troubled by the message, and the Holy Spirit in Daniel was not disturbed/troubled by the message, then Daniel being disturbed or troubled by the message was according to his flesh (carnal) and not according to the Holy Spirit or Holy Ones in heaven (spiritual).

So Nebuchadnezzar himself was more aligned with the Holy Spirit than Daniel was in this very bible verse, because Nebuchadnezzar exhorted Daniel to not allow either the dream or its interpretation (message) to trouble him.

You see that even men of God that are supposed to be spiritually minded sometimes are out of alignment with the Lord and His Spirit when those men of God are aligning and approaching with human methods and human compassion. You know how some doctors and nurses are trained to subdue some natural feelings for patients or sick ones in the sight of their blood and pains in order to administer to them the proper and right treatment that would cure them and help them better. That's how ministers and men of God must subdue in their approach human compassion (sympathy) to administer divine solutions to the problems and needs of men. The Lord has told us that human compassion many times worked contrary to human oppression in solving people's problems. And that even He Himself (Jesus) did not heal or improved everyone He had human compassion for when He walked the earth even though He had the power to just wave His Hand and remove all poverty, all sickness and all pains/troubles, in all human, and He had the compassion or urge to do so, yet He did move by human compassion but subjected Himself to the Will or Spirit of His Father. He feels our pains and sufferings because He's full of both human and divine Compassion and Love; and He even weeps for us with groanings and intercessions, yet He does not take laws into His Hand either to act out of compassion (positively) or to act out of condemnation (negatively) by taking laws into His Hand without His Father's Will and Spirit leading Him no matter the fact that all power in heaven and earth is wield by Him (The Lord Jesus Christ).

There were many sick and needy people in the Lord's community among His relations, and though the Lord Jesus was anointed with the Holy Ghost and went about doing good and healing all, yet He did not heal all of them in His own country. There were many widows and orphans in Israel in the days of Elijah, and he had the word of power to relieve them of their hunger and penury, yet he was not sent by God to any of the widow and orphanage home in Israel but sent to travel out of Israel to a widow and orphanage home outside Israel among the Sidonians. There were many lepers in Israel including those lepers that found food for the starving country, but Elisha that had the power to heal did not heal any leper in the entire Israel except lepers from Syria (Naaman).

I'm not talking to you as an ordinary man about compassion, because God already commanded you to have compassion for your neighbor as a good Samaritan. But if you are bearing the anointing and power of God or a man of God, the rules about showing or having compassion are different from ordinary people's rules. As a man of God, you can abuse the anointing or grace of God on you by human compassion or sympathy just as Saul's second disobedience was having compassion on some Amalekites and was thus rejected from being king; which is why some pastors out of compassion are preaching and prophesying prosperity, miracles and healing messages to the people in need but in a spiritual perspective those pastors are doing more damage by their compassionate and comfortable ministrations than they intended. This is not saying all compassionate or comfortable messages or ministerations are doing so. Rather I'm saying let even your compassion and desire for the prosperity, blessings, healings and miracles of your people or congregation be led by the Will and Spirit of God.

As a man of God, if you remove consequences (responsibilities) of people's actions and replace consequences with compassion, you fail as a true man of God. However, you can have someone, especially the Lord Jesus, to share consequences of other people's actions, but they must also share partly or know the consequences even when another man carries the weight for them. That's the greatest compassion a man of God shows to anyone - Declaring the consequences of their actions and then making them behold or see the Lord Jesus who suffers or the people who suffer these. This just as the Lord could have just remove the suffering in the world by compassion or return Adam back into the Garden without the sufferings: but instead of expressing such kind of love or compassion, the Love of God was expressed by His Son coming to suffer the consequences on men's behalf: Thus both Consequences and Compassion were fulfilled in His Cross.

Not like Daniel did in the top Bible verse above, wherein Daniel was showing compassion to his lord, Nebuchadnezzar, but removing consequences from him and putting the consequences of Nebuchadnezzar's sins on the haters or enemies of Nebuchadnezzar by wishing or praying the application of that dream should be to the enemies and haters of Nebuchadnezzar instead of to Nebuchadnezzar. In some way, what Daniel was saying to his lord Nebuchadnezzar in this bible verse above was like what Peter was saying to his Lord Jesus, saying God forbid those things (sufferings/humiliation/death) from befalling You (Jesus) as prophesied or revealed by the Lord (Matthew 16:21-23).

Do you think Peter is more loving or more compassionate than the Father God towards the Lord Jesus Christ the Son of God? Do you think Daniel is more loving or more compassionate than God towards the king Nebuchadnezzar? Do you think you are more or more compassionate than God towards any man?

Now supposing this wish or prayer of Daniel came through, and that dream or vision of Nebuchadnezzar was then applied to his enemies or haters, leaving Nebuchadnezzar to continue as he is by the compassion and intercession of Daniel without consequences on Nebuchadnezzar's pride and wickedness: That means the king of pride would not have been stopped or humiliated from arrogating all the glory to himself and to the power of his own majesty. Meaning he would not have known or seen the power of God or the Kingdom of God because the living would not have known that there's a Most High above this great king, and that the Most High rules even beyond how much that king rules in the kingdoms of men, and the Most High is the True King-Maker. Neither would Nebuchadnezzar the king repent and convert into the faith because Daniel's prayer/wish prevented and deflected this heavenly vision out of compassion for his boss and lord or out of opportunity of staying supportive and relevant in his office and job under his boss.

On the flip side, those enemies or haters of Daniel's boss would have become the beasts, suffered seven years with beast's understanding, and then regain better understanding of the Kingdom of God and the rules of the most High, and because they became most humbled or basest among men, the Most High who set the basest or most humbled of men over the kingdoms of men would have set the enemies and haters of Nebuchadnezzar over the kingdoms of men instead of Nebuchadnezzar. Therefore Daniel shall witness how another base or humble one that was actually an enemy or hater of his boss, Nebuchadnezzar, shall become set over the kingdoms of men as the leader of the Medo-Persian empire.

DANIEL 4:18

[Daniel 4:18 NKJV] — “This dream I, King Nebuchadnezzar, have seen. Now you, Belteshazzar, declare its interpretation, since all the wise men of my kingdom are not able to make known to me the interpretation; but you are able, for the Spirit of the Holy God is in you.”

[Daniel 4:18 FBV] — This is what I, King Nebuchadnezzar, saw in my dream. Now it's up to you, Belteshazzar, to give me the explanation as you have before. None of the wise men in my kingdom could explain it to me. But you can, because the spirit of the holy gods is in you.”

My point is unlike what Nebuchadnezzar in the Bible verse above was implying, having the Holy Spirit of the Holy God in you does not still guarantee your ability to interpret or understand hard dreams or visions or mysteries revealed, unless God gave you the gifts of understanding/interpretation of visions and mysteries. It was not just the Spirit of God in Daniel, but also the "Understanding of Visions and Dreams" in Daniel, which was not even in Shadrach, Meshach and Abednego:

[Daniel 1:17 NKJV] — As for these four young men, God gave them knowledge and skill in all literature and wisdom; and Daniel had understanding in all visions and dreams.

To be an interpreter is to be one man among a thousand and to have ability to communicate understanding of dreams, visions or mysteries. Such Interpreters are not common but are as one in a thousand men.

[Job 33:23 AKJV] — "If there be a messenger with him, an interpreter, one among a thousand, to show to man His uprightness:"

For instance, even with having the Holy Spirit of God in Christians, yet not all Christians fully understand the scriptures, the revelations, the visions or the mysteries of God. That is also why after God gave the Church the Holy Spirit, He still had to give them Apostles, Prophets, Pastors and Teachers, for them to attain the Knowledge of Christ and mysteries of God. Why would they still need these interpreters if having the Holy Spirit of God inside them was enough? Didn't the Lord Jesus promise that when the Spirit of Truth comes He would guide or teach us all things as the Teacher Himself? Each of us have the Holy Spirit of God, and yet we still need each other for learning, for interpretation and understanding, for edification of the Church that already has the Holy Spirit of God inside Her.

Again, at a point, even Daniel that had the Spirit of the Holy God inside him at a point saw visions that were beyond him and needed angels to interpret or unveil his visions to him.

Now, let's group the men mentioned in the bible verse above into three groups:

*1* Group One: Those who are seers, able to see or received Dreams and Visions from God, but are neither with understanding of their visions nor able to interpret.

*2" Group Two: Those who are wise men (intelligent men), but they are not understanding men in visions, dreams and in the mysteries of God.

*3* Group Three: Those who have understanding in visions by the Spirit of God.

In the last days, God poured out His Holy Spirit upon all flesh, sons and daughters are prophesying by the Spirit of God, old men are dreaming dreams in their old age by the Spirit of God, and young men are seeing visions in their youth by the Spirit of God. Nothing was said about them having understanding or interpreting their prophecies, their dreams and their visions.

In terms of 'Visions/dreams' and 'Understanding/interpretation:'

*A* The scripture dreams/visions Nebuchadnezzar saw were beyond him in terms of understanding but not beyond a Holy Spirit filled man of God called Daniel. True to what Nebuchadnezzar said in the top bible verse above. Same with Pharaoh's dreams/visions in the scriptures greater than him in terms of understanding but not greater than a Holy Spirit filled man of God called Joseph.

*B* However, even the Holy Spirit filled Daniel himself had visions or revelations that were beyond him in terms of understanding but not beyond those angels sent to help him understand.

So spiritually, greater is he who understands or interprets than he who saw visions, dreams or revelations, beyond his understanding or ability to explain. This is because understanding and explaining visions, dreams, revelations or mysteries edifies the church more than seeing/saying them without explanation. It's like one man (Mr. A) comes to you and reads the scriptures (bible reading) to you and then left; but another man (Mr. B) comes to you and explains or interprets all the scriptures (bible you read) opening your understanding in the scriptures: Surely, the interpreter (Mr. B) edified you more than the Bible reader did because he gave you more understanding while the former gave you more hearing or seeing. Spiritually, the one who edifies more is greater than the other in ministry or in ranking of spiritual gifts. Giving someone the understanding of the bible is greater than giving someone the bible as a gift.

What are you sharing while ministering? Hearing or Understanding? Seeing visions or Perceiving (understanding) them? If your ministry is like speaking in tongues, speaking in mysteries or speaking in parables like the Lord Jesus sometimes did, you are basically sharing "Hearings" or "Seeings" to people but not sharing true "Understanding (Edification)" to them. Many ministries are like those of speaking in tongues, parables or mysteries, because though they are ministering sights and sounds, seeings and hearings, (entertainments), they are not imparting understanding or opening of the eye of the blind (unveiling of the veiled eyes) to even those they minister hearings of the words of God and seeings of mighty works, signs and wonders, but empty understanding. As it is written,

[Matthew 13:13-15 BSB] — "This is why I speak to them in parables: ‘Though seeing, they do not see; though hearing, they do not hear or understand.’ In them the prophecy of Isaiah is fulfilled: ‘You will be ever hearing but never understanding; you will be ever seeing but never perceiving. For this people’s heart has grown callous; they hardly hear with their ears, and they have closed their eyes. Otherwise they might see with their eyes, hear with their ears, understand with their hearts, and turn, and I would heal them.’"

Better to be in a church that would speak five words to your understanding, than to be in a church that would speak thousands of words in prayers, in speaking in tongues, in parables, in visions or in mysteries, and not one of those words truly goes into your understanding. Understanding is greater than hearing or seeing things, because understanding edifies more than dramas and shows.
[b]
[1 Corinthians 14:12-13] — "It is the same with you. Since you are eager to have spiritual gifts, strive to excel in gifts that build up the church. Therefore, the one who speaks in a tongue should pray that he may interpret (give understanding)."

Pray that you may interpret means [/b]pray that you may understand and speak true understanding, not just speaking tongues or speaking in hearings to people without communicating understanding that unveils their eyes and edifies them.

It's not only women that Paul commanded to keep silence in the church, for he also commanded whoever has something to say that would require an interpreter to explain after it has been said, such a person should keep silence in the church if there's no interpreter in the church to give understanding of what he says.

[1 Corinthians 14:28 AKJV] — "But if there be no interpreter, let him keep silence in the church; and let him speak to himself, and to God."

[Proverbs 21:16] — "The man that wanders out of the way of understanding shall remain in the church of the dead."

The House of God is edified or built through wisdom with understanding. Thus the more understanding you have to give to members of His Body, the more you have to build the House of God. Are you a wise builder of the House of God? Then you keep feeding His People with Wisdom, Knowledge and Understanding that edify the Church. As it is written,

[Proverbs 24:3-4 NKJV] — "Through wisdom a house is built, And by understanding it is established; By knowledge the rooms are filled With all precious and pleasant riches."

DANIEL 4:17

[Daniel 4:17 NKJV] — ‘This decision is by the decree of the watchers, And the sentence by the word of the holy ones, In order that the living may know That the Most High rules in the kingdom of men, Gives it to whomever He will, And sets over it the lowest of men.’

[Daniel 4:17 AKJV] — "This matter is by the decree of the watchers, and the demand by the word of the holy ones: to the intent that the living may know that the Most High rules in the kingdom of men, and gives it to whomsoever He will, and sets up over it the basest of men."


Does the Council of Watchers or Holy Ones in heaven have the right/authority to issue such decree and court sentence to a reigning king of kings in an entirely different kingdom that does not belong to them but to me ruling men? Do holy angels have authority to judge the living, though they have authority to judge the dead and send them either to Hell, Tartarus or to Paradise, for after death comes judgment? The Lord Jesus once asked a man that requested Him to judge the sharing of their late father's property between him and his greedy brother that wanted to take all their father's property without sharing with his younger brother: The Lord Jesus replied the complainant, saying:

[Luke 12:14] — "Mr. Man, who made Me a Judge or a Divider over you?"

Talk of Jurisdiction, was it within the Jurisdiction of the holy angels or watchers to judge and determine the political leadership and kingdom of the sons of men? The other time that Watchers involved themselves with the daughters of men and with marriages of men, those Watchers caused terrible troubles and problems both on the sons of men and on themselves that mingled their seeds with the daughters of men. Now these sets of holy Watchers are involving themselves with the kingdoms of men and making decisions over dominions, governments and politics of men.



In the top Bible verse above, the decision of the court (Council of holy Watchers) sitting in far heavens sentenced a sitting King of king and sovereign ruler of the earth realm (world) to seven years metamorphic captivity, driving him out of his throne, out of his estate, out of his being a descendant of Adam or Noah as a man, and out of his human heart, to becoming a beast among beasts.

He was not even there in the court that decided his matter and sentenced him without fair hearing/fair trial. Neither was his attorney or lawyer in the Court of Holy Watchers in the heavens, for it's not easy for a man to enter heaven even if it's to attend the sitting of his court case. The Court of Holy Watchers in heaven however sent one of them to come down and declare the decree of the Council to the King so judged. This was way different from how the International Criminal Court (ICC) sat and convicted a sitting Prime of Israel, Benjamin Netanyahu, of war crimes and mass murder, for his war in Gaza, and declared his arrest. Rather more like the Assembly in heaven before the Throne of God, deciding who would go to entice Ahab (then sitting king of Israel) to go and wage war against Ramoth Gilead and thereby be killed (1 Kings 22:19-23). Not talking about a sitting ruler of Iran, who after firing weapons against Israel that couldn't prosper against Israel, his own aircraft crashed and he died with his foreign minister on board.

Again in the top Bible verse above, the Holy Watcher stated there Goal of doing this as an "Example" or "Learning Reference" for all other Living people on earth (including you and I) to learn from what they have done and what happened to the greatest, strongest and most golden kingdom or king of kings then, to know that the Most High rules in the kingdoms of men, and gives it to whomever the Most High wills, and sets over them even the lowest or most humble of them.

*A* To the intent that the Living may know….: - The dead already know the judgments of God and holy angels to some degree, knowing how the Most High rules, not just in the kingdoms of men, but also in the activities of men. The Most High has always been "The LORD" and "The JUDGE" even when He's not "The King" in the kingdoms of men. In the Kingdom of God, He is "the KING" but He remains the LORD (Yahweh or Jehovah) in all kingdoms. The Living must know this, that it's not only after death comes judgment or the rule of God and heavens; but even know that "the Lord is the Judge of both the Living and the dead."

*B* The Most High is the Supreme Court or Supreme Judge over all: The way the world defines or determines jurisdiction or authority to judge and apply is different from the way the holy and higher realms define or have it. The holy and higher realms have jurisdiction and authority to judge and apply according to the Knowledge, the Will and the Mind, of the Most High. With this, even the spiritual can judge all things, even the saints can judge angels, and even the angels can judge the kingdoms of men and judge things. As you saw, the Watchers judged Nebuchadnezzar here, and took credit or ownership of doing so, because they were doing so in union with the Knowledge, the Will and the Mind of the Most High.

[I Corinthians 2:15‭-‬16 NKJV] — But he who is spiritual judges all things, yet he himself is rightly judged by no one. For “who has known the mind of the Lord that he may instruct Him?” But we have the mind of Christ.

*C* The Most High rules in the kingdoms of men, and gives it to whomever the Most High wills, and sets over them even the lowest or most humble of them. — Whether the people voted or not, the Most High is the greatest King-Maker or technically the only King-Maker there really is, notwithstanding those parading themselves as kingmakers or political structures.

In His pre-qualification or selection of candidates, two things precide:
One is His Will: This is solely based on Him in His choices, wisdom, pleasure, counsel, knowledge and His Godhead.
Two is the Humility/Lowliness/Meekness/Submission of a candidate.

"The Most High rules in the Kingdoms of men and yet He sets over them rulers" — wouldn't this be a contradiction or paradox? I am in charge, and I put you in charge, so that I remain in charge — how can you and me (that put you there) be in charge at the same time as if two captains are in the same ship governing?

It's by you that I put there remaining so humble and lowly so that your shining light towards those under you would reveal me in charge through you and though you are in charge. You see why God the Most High that rules in the kingdoms of men can afford to put the most humble, lowest or basest of men as rulers over those kingdoms without undermining the Most High's rulings in those kingdoms.

Nebuchadnezzar as that tree grew (pride) and the tree covered the ability of the people to see the most High God because they were clouded or veiled in seeing only the most high tree as the center of the earth. Have you not seen or heard how some governor or president turned to undermine the former governor or president that put him in that office when he couldn't have been there without the former's help. Nebuchadnezzar thought he could do that to the Most High, but behold the end to his pride in power.

Nevertheless,

Let every soul be subject to the governing authorities. For there is no authority except from God, and the authorities that exist are appointed by God. Therefore whoever resists the authority resists the ordinance of God, and those who resist will bring judgment on themselves. For rulers are not a terror to good works, but to evil. Do you want to be unafraid of the authority? Do what is good, and you will have praise from the same.
[Romans 13:1‭-‬3 NKJV]

DANIEL 4:16

[Daniel 4:16 NKJV] — Let his heart be changed from that of a man, Let him be given the heart of a beast, And let seven times pass over him.

[Daniel 4:16 BSB] — Let his mind be changed from that of a man, and let him be given the mind of a beast till seven times pass him by.



*A* In the myth story of "Beauty and the Beast," it was a sorceress/witch that cursed or cast spells on the handsome prince that changed him from being man to becoming a beast until he learned to love and be loved by a stranger.

*B* But in the true story of "King Nebuchadnezzar the Beast," it was not a sorceress or witch, but a Watcher (a Holy One) from heaven that spoke the decree on the king that changed him from being a man to becoming a beast: not for him to learn to love (because that would require him having or keeping his heart of man even as a beast), but for him to learn the Knowledge of God and be converted for the Kingdom of God. For that, he was given heart of a beast while his heart of man was taken away and worked on by God for seven times Passover.

Therefore, from the days of Nebuchadnezzar becoming a Beast and still restored to his kingdom, (till the last Beast who's Mark of the Beast is "666" and is a number of a Man who is the Beast), kings and kingdoms began to appear in visions or revelations as "Beasts" that were not among the living creatures Adam named in the Garden of Eden or among the living creatures Noah brought into the Ark. Nebuchadnezzar pioneered such Kingdoms Beast figures that appeared as hybrids of different beasts and man combined in visions, revelations or prophecies. Daniel would later begin seeing such beasts arising from seas, lands or nowhere, in his visions; and hybrids of them partly lion, partly leopard, partly bear, partly goat or ram, partly dragon, partly serpent, partly woman, partly man etc, - Hybridization.

Such hybridization speaks more of the complexity of the hearts of those kingdoms



This is a Kingdom message that the Words of the Kingdom required special hearts in men to fulfill in the men. You may recall the parable of the Sower, the Soil and the Seeds (Matthew 13:3-23), wherein different Soils (Grounds or Hearts/Minds or Understanding of men) where tested with the same Seeds (Words of the Kingdom) and there were different outcomes that resulted, not based on the power/potency of the Words of the Kingdom (the Seeds) but based on the kinds of heart, mindset or understanding (Grounds/Soils) of the men to whom those Words (Seeds) came.

In the top Bible verse above, is one of the greatest illustration of "Exchange of Hearts" for the fulfilling of the Words of the Kingdom of God in a man who did not have the required heart for those Kingdom Words to bear 100 fold Fruits (to fulfill) in him. It is both literally and illustrative: Having the heart of the man taken from him (for seven years Sabbath rest of his heart to improve his heart) while his heart of man was replaced/substituted with the heart of a beast (heart here means understanding or mindset) for seven years Passovers (Seven Times); in order for that heart of the man to enjoy seven years Sabbath rest from that man (as a ground (Soil) would recuperate and regain more strength and nutrients if left for seven years without the activities of men).

Technically, some of the ground on the wayside street in the parable of the Sower, the Soils and the Seed, would have become good grounds for the Seeds if the Activities of men were suspended from that wayside ground (heart) for years to enjoy Sabbath that breaks fallow grounds to break even. As it is written,

[Leviticus 26:34-35] - "Then shall the land enjoy her sabbaths, as long as it lies desolate, and you be in your enemies' land; even then shall the land rest, and enjoy her sabbaths. As long as it lies desolate it shall rest; because it did not rest in your sabbaths, when you dwelled on it."

Yes, it was Nebuchadnezzar that destroyed that great temple that Solomon built, and threw down the walls of Jerusalem after their ancestors threw down the walls of Jericho; and brought them all into captivity in Babylon for Seventy Years, leaving none of them in their promised land, so that Land or Grounds enjoyed Seventy years Sabbath while the people were in seventy years away in exiles.

[2 Chronicles 36:19‭-‬21 FBV] — Then the Babylonians burned down God's Temple and demolished Jerusalem's walls. They set fire to all the palaces and destroyed everything that had any value. Nebuchadnezzar took into exile in Babylon those who had not been killed. They were slaves for himself and his sons, until the kingdom of Persia took over. So to fulfill the Lord's prophecy given through Jeremiah, the land enjoyed its Sabbaths as rest all the time it was left desolate, keeping the Sabbath until seventy years were completed.

The same Nebuchadnezzar was getting a decree from the Watcher, the Holy One, that his own heart of man shall be taken away from him for seven years, while he would be living with the heart of a beast while those seven times Passover him.


However, it's not just by what's happening to Nebuchadnezzar in the top bible verse above that God changes or develops a man's heart for the Kingdom Words. There was another man who, before he became king in Israel, did not have the required heart for the fulfilling of the Word of the Kingdom: to him God gave another heart (not a heart of beast, but another (a prophet's) heart that would work better with the Spirit of God for the kingdom than the heart that was in him) temporarily for the urgency of the Kingdom Business. As it is written,

[I Samuel 10:9‭-‬12 NKJV] — So it was, when he had turned his back to go from Samuel, that God gave him another heart; and all those signs came to pass that day. When they came there to the hill, there was a group of prophets to meet him; then the Spirit of God came upon him, and he prophesied among them. And it happened, when all who knew him formerly saw that he indeed prophesied among the prophets, that the people said to one another, “What is this that has come upon the son of Kish? Is Saul also among the prophets?” Then a man from there answered and said, “But who is their father?” Therefore it became a proverb: “Is Saul also among the prophets?”

Behold the gospel of God giving to His People another heart and His Spirit - the Exchange of heart for the Spirit of the Kingdom of God:

[Ezekiel 36:26‭-‬29 NKJV] — I will give you a new heart and put a new spirit within you; I will take the heart of stone out of your flesh and give you a heart of flesh. I will put My Spirit within you and cause you to walk in My statutes, and you will keep My judgments and do them. Then you shall dwell in the land that I gave to your fathers; you shall be My people, and I will be your God. I will deliver you from all your uncleannesses. I will call for the grain and multiply it, and bring no famine upon you.

That "New Heart" in this gospel is more than just "Another Heart" given to either Saul or Nebuchadnezzar. To Nebuchadnezzar was given a heart of beast, which implies that heart already belonged to the beast before he was given the heart. But a "New Heart" means it was not belonging to another, neither would a "New Spirit" mean something like the spirit of Elijah on Elisha or in John the Baptist. Rather God who forms the spirit of a man inside (not outside) the man according to "Zechariah 12:1" would create a completely new and clean heart inside (not outside) the man He gives this grace in the Lord Jesus Christ. Written:

[Psalms 51:10‭-‬13 BSB] - Create in me a clean heart, O God, and renew a right spirit within me. Cast me not away from Your presence; take not Your Holy Spirit from me. Restore to me the joy of Your salvation, and sustain me with a willing spirit. Then I will teach transgressors Your ways, and sinners will return to You.

DANIEL 4:15

[Daniel 4:15 NKJV] — Nevertheless leave the stump and roots in the earth, Bound with a band of iron and bronze, In the tender grass of the field. Let it be wet with the dew of heaven, And let him graze with the beasts On the grass of the earth.

[Daniel 4:15 GNT] — But leave the stump in the ground with a band of iron and bronze around it. Leave it there in the field with the grass. “‘Now let the dew fall on this man, and let him live with the animals and the plants.



If you read and understood what I wrote at the preceding Bible Verse to this top Bible verse above, that is, what I wrote at "Daniel 4:14," you would find what I write at this top bible verse as “Sequel." Keywords were two kinds of Fall- "The Fall" by dividing and scattering members that were bonded/united ** compared to "The Fall" by the gathering and entering of Abominations that make desolate or perdition, as the way parasites or viruses enter a host and ruin the infected/host.

In this top Bible verse above, the Watcher (Holy One) was commanding the first kind of Fall (by dividing and scattering) of that Tree, while at the same time the Watcher was also preventing or guarding against the second kind of Fall to it. The first part of the bible verse above was grace that prevents both perdition and the second kind of fall to the Tree, while the second part pushed the first kind of fall.



*1* THE FIRST PART OF THE TOP BIBLE VERSE AGAINST THE SECOND KIND OF FALL

The first part of the top bible verse above states:

"Nevertheless leave the stump and roots in the earth, Bound with a band of iron and bronze, In the tender grass of the field."

This was the grace and mercy of God to Nebuchadnezzar or to that Tree even in the midst of God's judgment upon that Tree.

- Nevertheless leave the stump and roots in the earth: This here means it's not a total fall or perdition, and there was hope for that tree. As it is written,

[Job 14:7-9 BSB] — "For there is hope for a tree: If it is cut down, it will sprout again, and its tender shoots will not fail. If its roots grow old in the ground and its stump dies in the soil, at the scent of water it will bud and put forth twigs like a sapling."

With a band of iron and bronze around it, In the tender grass of the field: This here means securing the Stump and Roots of the truncated Tree against the entrance or invasion of evil spirits or evil viruses, parasites etc., especially because of the last stroke of isolation or separation about to be done to that tree.

Remember that when that evil spirit that left the man returned to the man's house (man's body), the evil spirit found the house was clean, swept but it was empty - meaning even the soul and spirit of the man was not even in the house (his body). So that evil spirit went and invited seven more evil or more wicked spirits than him, and eight of them entered and occupied that empty house [Luke 11:24-26]. Supposing when that evil returned to that man's house that was empty, the evil spirit found there was band of iron and bronze around that house as in under lock, and no way for that evil spirit to enter the house or to know it's empty: then that would be illustrating what the Watcher's doing for that Tree Stump by calling for it to be under the lock and key of Iron and brass around it while the personality and spirit (Nebuchadnezzar) would be driven or cast out of his own Tree house next.



*2* THE SECOND PART OF THE TOP BIBLE VERSE COMPLETING THE FIRST KIND OF FALL

The second part of the top bible verse above states:

"Let it be wet with the dew of heaven, And let him graze with the beasts On the grass of the earth."

Remember the nature of the first kind of fall determined on Tower of Babel or on that Tree had to do with dividing, dispersing and scattering, things and people that built and bonded it together to stand.

- The Watcher first decreed the isolation of the head (root) of the tree from the rest of its body (tops of the tree). Then he decreed:
- Scattering the gathering/bonding of every leaf from the Tree,
- Scattering the gathering/bonding of every Fruit from the Tree,
- Scattering the gathering/bonding of every Branch from the Tree,
- Scattering the gathering/bonding of every animal from the Tree,
- Scattering the gathering/bonding of every Bird from the Tree,

Now the last bonding the Watcher's decree would scatter or isolate from the Tree was the Personality, the Man or Being of the Tree. He was casting the man out of the Tree into animals, just as the Lord Jesus Christ cast out the Demons called "Legion" out of the body of the man into animals called "Swine," and when those evil spirits bonded with the swine, they preferred suicide than to be host to those evil spirits just as Judas Iscariot; and those swine ran into the lake/sea drowned.

Nebuchadnezzar's being was driven from his Tree (his estate/habitation as king among men), and his portion was with the animals of the field that eat grass. And while it happened, he was still getting wet or baptized from the dew of heaven, even as a beast. The dew of heaven would still be wetting this man-beast, so that even as a beast that eat grass, he would not be like the poverty lean seven cows in Pharaoh's dream of famine, but rather as the fatted cows therein without getting eaten or swallowed by any other beast though same seven years was appointed.
