And four great beasts came up from the sea, diverse one from another.
All Commentaries on Daniel 7:3 Go To Daniel 7
George Leo Haydock
AD 1849
Four great beasts; viz. the Chaldeans, Persian, Grecian, and Roman empires. But some rather choose to understand the fourth beast of the successors of Alexander the great, more especially of them that reigned in Asia and Syria, (Challoner) or in Egypt, chap. ii. 40.(Haydock)
