"TO EAR:  The Metallic Image Still Has 2 Feet & 10 Toes When the Lord Jesus Christ Smites The 2 Feet"


In your 1/21 post DONNA DANNA - TOES AND HORNS (fivedoves.com) you stated the following in regard to the metallic iron leg being cut off on the Western side of the Roman Empire and that the toes (part clay & part iron) were never seen again:

 "Rome did not proceed into history on two equally sturdy legs after it divided. It was more like one good strong leg that proceeded via the Eastern Roman/Byzantine Empire, while the other leg on the Western Roman side was cut off and ceased to exist in AD 476, when Odoacer (Germanic barbarians, Huns etc.), invaded from North of the Rhine and Danube Rivers, and he became the Ruler of Italy."

"The details given for the statue vision in Daniel 2 can therefore only be regarded as a general overview regarding the fourth kingdom’s future mixture of iron and clay, as foreign influences invaded and permeated the post-division stage of Europe that had once been the Roman Empire. Eventually both parts would break up into multiple kingdoms of disparity, being partly strong and partly fragile, but not at the same time. The Western Roman Empire came to an end in AD 476, and the Roman Imperial insignia went east to Constantinople until 1453!  The toes were never seen again!'

Daniel 2:33 shows us the metallic image's legs of iron, and his feet were part iron and part of clay. Daniel 2:34-35 shows the Lord Jesus Christ (the stone) smiting the image on its feet of iron and clay, and He breaks them into pieces.  He doesn't smite one remaining foot of a leg that wasn't cut off because He smites the 2 feet.  So that means that the 2 feet and their toes are existing at the time the Lord Jesus Christ smites them and sets up His kingdom on Earth.  

Daniel 2:34-35, "Thou sawest till that a stone was cut out without hands, which smote the image upon his feet that were of iron and clay, and brake them to pieces. Then was the iron, the clay, the brass, the silver, and the gold, broken to pieces together, and became like the chaff of the summer threshingfloors; and the wind carried them away, that no place was found for them: and the stone that smote the image became a great mountain, and filled the whole earth."

Also, your understanding of the 4th kingdom as shown in your 1/21 post DONNA DANNA - Shia or Shiite Head (fivedoves.com) is completely different than mine from what you stated below:

"Daniel 7 is about 4 beast/empires that will rise up, with particular emphasis on the European part of the 4th beast/Holy Roman Empire (1st Reich), German Empire (2nd Reich), Nazi Germany (3rd Reich) and Inquisitions that persecuted the saints of God (Jews) during the 9th to 20th Century, eventually causing the Holocaust. The 4th beast ‘little horn’ and Germany died in flames in 1945. Afterward, the Jews received their kingdom inheritance: the State of Israel in 1948 (Dan. 7:27)."

As I understand it from the Bible verses, this 4th kingdom with the 2 feet and toes of iron and clay are also discussed in Daniel 2:40-45. In fact Daniel 2:44-45 says, in the days of these kings,(the kings who are the 10 toes or 10 horns) the God of heaven sets up His kingdom. 

Daniel 2:44-45, "And in the days of these kings shall the God of heaven set up a kingdom, which shall never be destroyed: and the kingdom shall not be left to other people, but it shall break in pieces and consume all these kingdoms, and it shall stand for ever. Forasmuch as thou sawest that the stone was cut out of the mountain without hands, and that it brake in pieces the iron, the brass, the clay, the silver, and the gold; the great God hath made known to the king what shall come to pass hereafter: and the dream is certain, and the interpretation thereof sure."

And how I can prove that the 10 toes on the feet of the metallic image are the 10 horns of both Daniel 7 and Rev. 13 is the fact that there are 10 horns in the 4th beast's head and another horn (the same little horn discussed in Dan.7:7-8) "made war with the saints and prevailed against them until the Ancient of days came and judgment was given to the saints of the most High; and the time came that the saints possessed the kingdom" according to Daniel 7:20-22 which will be at the Lord's Jesus Christ's 2nd coming when He sets up His kingdom on Earth.  Then in the next verses in Dan. 7:23-25 it tells about the 4th beast which is the 4th kingdom on earth that devours the whole earth and the 10 horns out of this kingdom are ten kings that shall arise and another shall arise after them (the little horn who arises to become a horn or king) and he subdues 3 kings which are the 3 that he plucked up by the roots in Dan. 7:8. Daniel 7:25 says, "And he shall speak great words against the most High, and shall wear out the saints of the most High, and think to change times and laws: and they shall be given into his hand until a time and times and the dividing of time" meaning 1 yr. and 2 yrs. and 1/2 year which is the same as 3 1/2 yrs. or the 42 months reign of the Antichrist (in Rev. 13:5) who was the little horn that rose to power to become a horn which is a king.  Then Daniel 7:26-27 says the following:

Daniel 7:26-27, "But the judgment shall sit, and they shall take away his dominion, to consume and to destroy it unto the end. And the kingdom and dominion, and the greatness of the kingdom under the whole heaven, shall be given to the people of the saints of the most High, whose kingdom is an everlasting kingdom, and all dominions shall serve and obey him."

Also even though Nebuchadnezzar's dream of the metallic image with feet and toes of clay and iron Daniel 2:31-45 and Daniel's dream in Daniel 7:1-14 were 50 years apart, they represent the same 4 empires. The metals in the Nebuchadnezzar's image are gold as Babylonia Empire, silver as Media-Persia Empire, brass as Grecian Empire, iron legs as Roman Empire that split in two between the Holy Roman Empire on the West and the Byzantine Empire in the East and part clay & part iron feet and toes of the final Roman Empire which consists of 10 kings from the old Roman Empire.  And the 4 beasts in Daniel 7:1-14 are the lion with eagle wings which was the Babylonia Empire, the 2nd beast was the bear that raised itself on one side was Media-Persian Empire with the raised up side representing Persia that took control of the kingdom after Media, the leopard with 4 wings on its back and 4 heads was the Grecian Empire under Alexander the Great whose 4 generals representing the heads took over the Empire upon his death, and the 4th beast with the 10 horns is the Final Roman Empire with 2 feet and toes part of clay and part of iron which are the ten toes although the Bible doesn't say there are 10 toes, but it doesn't say that some of the toes or leg are cut off either.  And the little horn that comes up among the 10 horns is the Antichrist.

My understanding of the identity of the 7 heads and 10 horns agrees with the author of the article at The Identity of the 7 Heads and the 10 Horns on the Beast of Revelation 13 (focusonjerusalem.com) and that the 10 toes of Daniel 2 are the 10 horns of Daniel 7 and Revelation 13.
