Daniel 7:2

French NEG79 1979 (Segond Nouvelle Edition de Genève 1979)

Daniel commença et dit: Je regardais pendant ma vision nocturne, et voici, les quatre vents des cieux firent irruption sur la grande mer.

Que signifie ce verset ?

Daniel describes a vision he had at night where he saw the four winds of heaven fighting on a great sea. This shows how powerful forces are clashing, causing turmoil.

Expliqué aux enfants

Imagine you’re looking out at the ocean during a big storm with lots of wind coming from all directions. The waves get really wild and choppy because of these strong winds. That’s kind of what Daniel saw in his dream, but it was much bigger and more intense!

Contexte historique

Daniel wrote this around 530 BCE while in exile in Babylon. He was a prophet to the Jewish people who were living under foreign rule. This vision likely reflects their struggles and uncertainties.
