- the prince of Grecia:
- "Afterª thisª I beheld,ªª°° and loª another,ª like a leopard,ª which had uponª the backª of it fourª wingsª of¹ a fowl;ª the beastª had also fourª heads;ª and dominionª was givenª° to it." {Dan 7:6} + "And as I¹ was¹ considering,ª° behold,¹ an he² goatª¹ cameª° from¹ the westª on¹ the faceª of the whole¹ earth,ª and touchedª° not¹ the ground:ª and the goatª [had] a notableª hornª between¹ his eyes.ª ... Therefore the he² goatª¹ waxed very² great:ª°¹¹ and when he was strong,ª° the greatª hornª was broken;ª° and for¹ it came upª° fourª notable onesª toward the fourª windsª of heaven.ª" {Dan 8:5-8} + "And the roughª goatª [is] the kingª of Grecia:ª and the greatª hornª that¹ [is] between¹ his eyesª [is] the firstª king.ª" {Dan 8:21} + "And now¹ will I shewª° thee the truth.ª Behold,¹ there shall stand upª° yet¹ threeª kingsª in Persia;ª and the fourthª shall be far² richerª°¹¹ than [they] all:²¹¹ and by his strengthª through his richesª he shall stir upª° all¹ against¹ the realmª of Grecia.ª ... And when he shall stand up,ª° his kingdomª shall be broken,ª° and shall be dividedª° toward the fourª windsª of heaven;ª and not¹ to his posterity,ª nor¹ according to his dominionª which¹ he ruled:ª° for¹ his kingdomª shall be plucked up,ª° even for othersª beside¹¹ those.¹" {Dan 11:2-4}
