Daniel had visions that are highly symbolic and sometimes difficult to understand. He had a dream about four kingdoms that would rule, similar to the dream he interpreted for King Nebuchadnezzar, and a vision of 70 weeks that indicated it was time for the people of Judah to return to Jerusalem. In his prophesy of the 70 weeks, he gives a precise prediction of the coming of the Messiah and the beginning of His Kingdom which shall be without end.
