The Little Horn: Antiochus, Antichrist, and Apocalyptic Literature

by Wendy Widder | Jun 28, 2015 | Apocalyptic literature, Daniel 7, The Book of Daniel

It’s time to wrap up Daniel 7, but first we should talk a little bit more about the little horn. The little horn appears in two of Daniel’s visions: chapters 7 and 8. In the first, it is an eleventh horn on the fourth beast, displacing three horns when it appears. In...

One Small Foot and Two Little Horns

by Wendy Widder | May 3, 2015 | Apocalyptic literature, Daniel 7, Daniel 8, The Book of Daniel

The dermatologist recently took a sharp (but sterile) instrument to my foot and then ordered me to elevate it as much as possible and not to exercise for two weeks. These haven’t been hard orders to follow since not even sandals are comfortable when you have stitches...

Last night was National Turn-Back-the-Clock night, which is widely embraced by most people I know (so long as they don’t have small children at home). Hooray for an extra hour to do something (Read: sleep!)! What I can’t figure out is how, with that extra hour of...
