Theodoret of Cyrus, on Dan 7:3
Theodoret of Cyrus · c. A.D. 393–457
Dan 7:3 · Douay-Rheims
“And four great beasts, different one from another, came up out of the sea.”
On this verse:
“But the prophet, full of disdain for these various metals, sees "four beasts." From those four beasts he understands that those four formidable kingdoms, which will strike fear into all people, will at last have an end, but there will be only one kingdom that will remain for all time without any end, namely, the kingdom that God has prepared for his saints.”
