The Bible Says
但以理书 8:3-4 含义

但以理正在目睹另一个异象。在异象中,他站在苏萨的乌莱运河旁,苏萨是伯沙撒统治时期巴比伦帝国的城市之一,伯沙撒是尼布甲尼撒的孙子。

一幕暴力的场面出现了。丹尼尔抬眼一看,他看见一只长着两只角的公羊。这只动物站在水渠前。这是一只参差不齐的动物,它的两只角,但一只比另一只长,较长的那只角最后长出来。这种描述听起来好像两只角是在丹尼尔眼前长出来的,一只角停止生长,而第二只角在第一只角之后开始生长,但最终却比第一只角长。

异象中的公羊开始朝多个方向猛冲。它向西、向北、向南猛冲。但以理看到其他野兽在公羊面前站立不住。其他动物要么逃离它,要么被它顶伤、踩踏。公羊猛冲得如此狂野,完全占据了主导地位,以致但以理写道,没有人能从它的威力下拯救它们。每只动物都逃跑或倒在公羊脚下。公羊为所欲为,自高自大。公羊不仅力量强大,势不可挡,而且骄傲自大。它毫无节制。它想干什么就干什么。在这场胜利中,它荣耀了自己。

本章后面会向但以理解释这一异象(但以理书 8:16)。这只长着参差不齐的角的公羊“代表玛代和波斯王”(但以理书 8:20)。在异象出现时,巴比伦仍然是最强大的国家,但自从尼布甲尼撒死后,玛代和波斯一直在积聚力量。玛代最初是更强大的国家,与波斯结盟,但波斯国王居鲁士和一队叛逆的玛代人将在公元前 550 年的帕萨尔加德战役中击败玛代国王阿斯提阿格斯,将两个国家的权力交给波斯人居鲁士。但以理看到这只公羊两个角,一个比另一个长,但在异象中,第二个角比第一个角。在玛代之后,波斯变得更加强大,它是最后出现的两个角较长的一个

米底亚-波斯帝国征服了西方、北方和南方。它统治的领土比巴比伦帝国更大。数百年来,没有其他国家(野兽能与它抗衡。这个帝国随心所欲,像其他帝国一样自我膨胀。它是从现代巴基斯坦到土耳其的最高权力,覆盖了大约 200 万平方英里的领土(见资源部分中的地图)
