Daniel 2:39 - Wesley's Explanatory Notes

Bible Comments

Another kingdom — This was that of the Medes and Persians, inferior in time for it lasted not half so long as the Assyrian in prosperity and tranquillity; yet, was this wonderful, rich and large for a time. Third kingdom — This was the Grecian monarchy under Alexander the great, called brass, because coarser than the other. Over all the earth — Alexander marched even to the Indies, and was said to conquer the world.

Daniel 2:39

39 And after thee shall arise another kingdom inferior to thee, and another third kingdom of brass, which shall bear rule over all the earth.
