Commentary on Daniel 7:2
Daniel's vision begins dramatically: "Daniel spake and said, I saw in my vision by night, and, behold, the four winds of the heaven strove upon the great sea." The "four winds" represent divine judgment and providence from all directions (cf. Jeremiah 49:36; Zechariah 2:6). The "great sea" symbolizes nations in chaos and rebellion (Psalm 65:7; Isaiah 17:12; Revelation 17:15). The violent striving produces the coming beasts—human kingdoms emerge from chaotic nations through divine providence. God sovereignly orchestrates even tumultuous political developments.
