Daniel's
Rise and Fall of Empires
Kings
of the South and the North
Daniel
11:43 "But he shall have power over the treasures of gold and of
silver, and over all the precious things of Egypt: and the Libyans
and the Ethiopians [shall be] at his steps."
he
shall have power... We had mentioned earlier, that this was a man of
great wealth and power. Nothing will be withheld from him. This ruler
is against Christ, and all the believers in Christ. Many nations feel
the same way he does about the Christians and Christ.
and
the... When the Antichrist hears of this invasion, he will move his
army from Europe into the Middle East, sweeping through many
countries… like a flood (Dan.
11:40). He will move quickly
into the land of Israel, the
Beautiful Land (Dan.
11:41; cf. Dan. 11:16; Dan.
8:9). His first strike will
be against Egypt
(Dan.
11:42-43), for Egypt and her
Arab allies (Libyans
and Nubians, Dan.
11:43) are the ones who will
initiate the invasion on Israel. On this occasion the king will not
conquer the territory of Edom,
Moab, and… Ammon (Dan.
11:41), now included in the
present kingdom of Jordan. But he will gain control over “many
countries.”
