-Visions of the Prophet Daniel-

Daniel, an Israelite of royal descent from the tribe of Judah, was born sometime around 620 B.C. He was already a teenager when Nebuchadnezzar II besieged Jerusalem for the first time in early 605 B.C. Daniel, along with other Jews of royal
blood, was taken to
Babylon. (Dan 1:1-33,6)
There he spent
three years
studying
"the
learning
and the
tongue of the Chaldeans"(Dan 1:4).
He, along with his three friends, was
made a courtier at the court of King
Nebuchadnezzar and later became one of his
wise men and counsellors. (Dan 1:19,20 & 2:13)
DANIEL HAD A VISION OF A TERRIBLE IMAGE THAT
WAS STRUCK AT THE FEET BY A ROCK WHICH TOTALLY DESTROYED IT!… 
Daniel became a prophet of the God of Israel, when in 603 B.C. King Nebuchadnezzar had an amazing dream which he couldn't remember after waking up. He told all his wise men to "remember the dream" for him and to tell him its interpretation, or else they would be "cut in pieces and their houses would be made a dunghill!" As one of the wise men Daniel didn't really care to die like that and so "desired mercies of the God of Heaven concerning this secret, so that Daniel and his fellows wouldn't perish with the rest of the wise men of Babylon! Then was the secret revealed to Daniel in a nightly vision."
His first vision covers the World’s history from his time--600 BC--until our time--beyond the year 2000 AD! He eventually received a series of visions about the future of Israel and of the entire world, especially during the Endtime also called the "latter days" or the "last days"! His visions are recorded in the Biblical book of Daniel in chapters 2, 7, 8, 9, 11 and 12!
