Satan’s Kingdom Will be Taken Away and Given to Jesus!
In part 1 of this study called Z-11. Was 1914 a Significant Year in Prophecy?, I briefly outlined that the seven TIMES that passed over Nebuchadnezzar SYMBOLIZE the seven 1000 year periods of times given to JUDGE Satan and the fallen angels.
In other words, Satan will be the god of this present world for SIX of those seven 1000 year periods of time.
And Jesus will be the God over the WHOLE earth during the SEVENTH 1000 year period of time to be God’s FAITHFUL and TRUTHFUL witness used by Almighty God to JUDGE the world, according to Acts 17:28-31.
Then Satan will be let loose from being BOUND for 1000 years DURING the REIGN of Jesus, and Yahweh;s EVEMY will DECEIVE the nations to make WAR again after the SEVENTH 1000 years period of time has ENDED.
The earth will then PASS AWAY with a great noise and the elements will melt with fervent heat to destroy Satan, the fallen angels, and all of the wicked humans in the lake of fire, according to 2 Peter 3:9-13.
Jesus will step down from ruling over the earth and commit the Kingdom back into the hands of the his God and Father, according to 1 Corinthians 15:20-28.
Almighty God with then create a NEW Heavens and a NEW Earth where His NEW creation of RIGHTEOUS sons and daughters will INHERIT for all eternity.
And here in part two of that study I will cover the TRUE sound Biblical meaning of the TREE in Nebuchadezzar’s dream in part two of this study.
Let us begin by reading Daniel 4:10-37.
“Thus were the visions of my head in my bed; I saw, and behold a TREE in the midst of the earth, and the height thereof was great.
Daniel 4:11. The tree grew, and was strong, and the height thereof reached unto heaven, and the sight thereof to the end of all the earth:
Daniel 4:12. The leaves thereof were fair, and the fruit thereof much, and in it was meat for all: the beasts of the field had shadow under it, and the fowls of the heaven dwelt in the boughs thereof, and all flesh was fed of it.
Daniel 4:13. I saw in the visions of my head upon my bed, and, behold, a WATCHER and an holy one came down from heaven;
Daniel 4:14. He cried aloud, and said thus, Hew down the TREE, (In Luke 13:18,19, Jesus that a mustard seed growing into a great TREE is likened to what the Kingdom of God.
But the kingdom of Babylon is symbolic for the kingdom of Satan, which is in the process of being CUT DOWN) and cut off his branches, shake off his leaves, and scatter his fruit: let the beasts get away from under it, and the fowls from his branches:
Daniel 4:15. Nevertheless, leave the stump of his roots in the earth, even with a band of iron and brass, (To me, this symbolizes the kingdom of Satan being taken from him and Satan being BOUND in the the bottomless pit for 1000 years.
Then, after the seventh 1000 year period of time is finished, Satan will be loosed and ascend out of the bottomless pit.
And instead of repenting like Nebuchadnezzar, Satan will go right back to DECEIVING the nations to make WAR) in the tender grass of the field; and let it be wet with the dew of heaven, and let his portion be with the beasts in the grass of the earth:
Daniel 4:16. Let his heart be changed from man’s, and let a beast’s heart be given unto him; and let SEVEN TIMES pass over him. (Or let seven 1000 year periods of time be concerning him)
Daniel 4:17. This MATTER (Or according to the root mean of this Hebrew word, this judicial SENTENCE) is by the decree of the WATCHES, (Notice that the angels are involved in decreeing the judgment of Satan) and the demand by the word of the holy ones: (But another possible translation of verse 17 is, This judicial sentence to CUT DOWN the watchers or the fallen angels is the request of the saints) to the intent that the living (Speaking of the angels who are kept alive or who remained alive when God cut down the earth during the previous age before God created man) may know that the most High rules in the kingdom of men, and gives it to whomsoever He will, and sets up over it the basest of men. (This speaks of God giving the kingdom to Jesus and the saints for the AGE of 1000 years)
Daniel 4:18. This dream I king Nebuchadnezzar have seen. Now you, O Belteshazzar, declare the interpretation thereof, forasmuch as all the wise men of my kingdom are not able to make known unto me the interpretation: but you are able; for the spirit of the holy gods is in you.
Daniel 4:19. Then Daniel, whose name was Belteshazzar, was astonied for one hour, and his thoughts troubled him. The king spoke, and said, Belteshazzar, let not the dream, or the interpretation thereof, trouble you. Belteshazzar answered and said, My lord, the dream is to them that hate you, and the interpretation thereof to your enemies. (Now, the enemies of Satan and the fallen angels are the good angels or the other side of heaven which Satan waged a war against.
In other words, the dream is FOR the side which God will give the kingdom to in the end)
Daniel 4:20. The TREE that you saw, which grew, and was strong, whose height reached unto the heaven, and the sight thereof to all the earth;
Daniel 4:21. Whose leaves were fair, and the fruit thereof much, and in it was meat for all; under which the beasts of the field dwelt, and upon whose branches the fowls of the heaven had their habitation:
Daniel 4:22. It is you, O king, that are grown and become strong: for your greatness is grown, and reaches unto heaven, and your dominion to the end of the earth.
Daniel 4:23. And whereas the king saw a WATCHER and an holy one coming down from heaven, and saying, Hew the TREE down, and destroy it; (Or cut down the tree and bind it) yet (Or surely) leave the stump of the roots thereof in the earth, even with a band of iron and brass, (Again, to me, this speaks of Satan being cast down from being the god of this present world and then BOUND in the heart of the earth for 1000 years during the SEVEN TIME concerning his sentence of allotted time before he is judged and cast into the lake of fire) in the tender grass of the field; and let it be wet with the dew of heaven, and let his portion be with the beasts of the field, till seven times pass over him; (Speaking of the seven 1000 year long periods of time before the final judgment of God concerning Satan and the fallen angels)
Daniel 4:24. This is the interpretation, O king, and this is the decree of the most High, which is come upon my lord the king:
Daniel 4:25. That they shall drive you from men, and your dwelling shall be with the beasts of the field, and they shall make you to eat grass as oxen, and they shall wet you with the dew of heaven, and seven times shall pass over you, till thou know that the most High rules in the kingdom of MEN, (The Hebrew word translated as men is NOT the usual word for HUMAN beings.
The root word carries the meaning of desperately wicked.
Thus, the word “MEN” could be referring to Satan and the fallen angels.
And that agrees with God taking the DOMINION of the kingdom over the earth from Satan and GIVING the kingdom unto Jesus and the saints) and gives it to whomsoever he will.
Daniel 4:26. And whereas they commanded to leave the stump of the tree roots; your kingdom shall be sure unto you, AFTER that you shall have known that the heavens do rule. (Or after you shall ACKNOWLEDGE that the heavens do RULE.
To me, this speaks of God’s grace and that if Satan would just repent, then God would forgive him.
But from the evidence in the Scriptures, Satan will CONTINUE to be desperately wicked and never repent)
Daniel 4:27. Wherefore, O king, let my counsel be acceptable unto you, and break off your sins by righteousness, and your iniquities by showing mercy to the poor; if it may be a lengthening of your tranquility.
Daniel 4:28. All this came upon the king Nebuchadnezzar.
Daniel 4:29. At the end of twelve months he walked in the palace of the kingdom of Babylon. (Or corresponding to the kingdom of CONFUSION)
Daniel 4:30. The king spoke, and said, Is not this great Babylon, that I have built for the house (Or for the family) of the kingdom by the might of my power, and for the honor of my majesty?
Daniel 4:31. While the word was in the king’s mouth, there fell a voice from heaven, saying, O king Nebuchadnezzar, to you it is spoken; The kingdom is departed from you.
Daniel 4:32. And they shall drive you from MEN, and your dwelling shall be with the beasts of the field: they shall make you to eat grass as oxen, and seven times shall pass over you, until you know that the most High rules in the kingdom of MEN, and gives it to whomsoever He will.
Daniel 4:33. The same hour was the thing fulfilled upon Nebuchadnezzar: and he was driven from MEN, (To me, this speaks of Satan being cast out of the third and the second heaven and bound to the first heaven, the atmosphere of the earth for SEVEN 1000 year periods of time) and did eat grass as oxen, and his body was wet with the dew of heaven, till his hairs were grown like eagles’ feathers, and his nails like birds’ claws. (I found that Nebuchadnezzer was ill before he died.
One source said a Babylonian king had a stomach ulcer, but it did not say the kings name was Nebuchadnezzer.
But if it was, then eating grass helps the stomach when dogs eat grass.
So, that could be one of the meanings of eating grass, as opposed to that being all Nebuchanezzer ate.
When people as sick, in great pain, and nigh unto death, then they do not care about cutting their nails or shaving.
These are just some thoughts that I have)
Daniel 4:34. And at the END of the days I Nebuchadnezzar lifted up mine eyes unto heaven, and mine understanding returned unto me, and I blessed the most High, and I praised and honored him that liveth for ever, whose dominion is an everlasting dominion, and his kingdom is from generation to generation: (Now, I interpret the END of days to be at the time of the final resurrection and the final Day of Judgment at the END of the 1000 year reign of Jesus.
Thus, thus verse could be saying that Nebuchadnezzar will be found written in ANOTHER book of life on the final Day of Judgment.
It also SYMBOLIZED Satan being given the right to DECEIVE the nations one final time to prove to the good angels that he will NEVER repent)
Daniel 4:35. And all the inhabitants of the earth are reputed as nothing: (Or BUT all of the inhabitants of the earth who are accounted as nothing And of THEN) he does according to his will in the army of heaven, (Speaking of the fallen angels) AND among the inhabitants of the earth: and none can stay his hand, or say unto him, What (Or why) are you doing? (This)
Daniel 4:36. At the same time my reason returned unto me; and for the glory of my kingdom, (Or for the GLORY of THE Kingdom of God) my honor and brightness returned unto me; and my counselors and my lords sought unto me; (Or THE counselors and THE lords made petition for me) and I was established in my kingdom, (Or I was made straight or confirmed into the Kingdom of God) and excellent majesty was added unto me. (Or and the excellent majesty of Jesus was given unto me, according to John 17:22)
Daniel 4:37. Now I Nebuchadnezzar praise and extol and honor the King of heaven, all whose works are truth, and his ways judgment: and those that walk in pride he is able to abase.”
Now, the END of days could also mean that Nebuchadnezzar REPENTED when he was nigh unto death.
And thus, God forgave him before he died. I do not find any historical records of Nebuchadnezzar recovering from his sickness and continuing to reign.
So, to me, verse 36 should be translated as the kingdom instead of my kingdom.
This concludes part 2 of the TRUE meaning of Nebuchadnezzar’s dream of the TREE.
To me, the Bible ITSELF does NOT teach a so-called “INVISIBLE” return of Jesus.
I have two in-depth studies on the 1000 year reign of Jesus that give you all of the verses on this subject. And I have two more studies showing WHY the coming of Jesus cannot possibly be and invisible coming
Please read the following four studies.
J-6 a. - The LITERAL 1000 Year Reign of Jesus!
J-6 b. - Is the 1000 Year Reign of Jesus LITERAL?
Z-2. Has Jesus Already RETURNED INVISIBLY?
Z-3. The INVISIBLE COMING of JESUS!
You can also read the other studies showing why and HOW the governing body has ERRED in their interpretation of the Scriptures under the menu heading called ** Z-0. WHY Jehovah’s Witnesses Are NOT Biblical Christianity! **
Thanks for reading, and may God bless you richly as you continue to seek the TRUTH of the WHOLE word of Almighty God.
And to me, the truth concerning who Jesus TRULY is, according to the Bible ITSELF, is the Biblical Unitarian view of Jesus.
Once Christians, Jews, Muslims, and even atheists understand the REASON that Yahweh CREATED the Son of MAN, Jesus, was to have DOMINION over the work of Yahweh’s hands.
And after you understand that the REASON that Yahweh did that is to STILL His ENEMIES, Satan and the fallen angels.
Then you can understand that God made His human Son to become “a” Lord, “a” King, and “a” God, under and subject to his God and Father in order to JUDGE Satan and the fallen angels.
For a deeper understanding of this WAR that Lucifer and one third of the angels waged against the throne of Almighty God, please read the studies under the subject category called ** Q-0 Why Are We Here? Is God at WAR? **.
More studies are coming in this SHORTER Biblical Unitarian view of who Jesus is according to the WHOLE word of God.

This way you can just send ONE link to those who you want to share the TRUE sound Biblical FOUNDATIONAL teachings of the church that Jesus and his Apostles taught in the first century church.
Your brother in our Lord Jesus Christ,
Brother Mark.
My heartfelt prayer is that all Christians RETURN to the TRUE FOUNDATION of the church that is taught by the very Apostles of Jesus in the first century.
So let us all come into the UNITY of the faith and return to what Jesus and his Apostles taught us in SIMPLICITY in the New Testament.
