King James Version
41 And whereas thou sawest the feet and toes,
part of potters' clay, and part of iron,
the kingdom shall be divided;
but there shall be in it of the strength of the iron,
forasmuch as thou sawest the iron
mixed with miry clay.
42 And as the toes of the feet were part of iron,
and part of clay,
so the kingdom shall be partly strong,
and partly broken.
Herein begins my notes on the dream interpretation.
Linking it with other verses from the Bible.
JESUS spoke of a kingdom divided.
Matthew 12:25
King James Version
25 And Jesus knew their thoughts,
and said unto them,
Every kingdom divided against itself
is brought to desolation;
and every city or house divided against itself
shall not stand:
On iron:
Jeremiah 6:28
King James Version
28 They are all grievous revolters,
walking with slanders:
they are brass and iron;
they are all corrupters.
On miry clay:
Psalm 40:1-2
King James Version
40 I waited patiently for the Lord;
and he inclined unto me,
and heard my cry.
2 He brought me up also out of an horrible pit,
out of the miry clay,
and set my feet upon a rock,
and established my goings.
That rock is CHRIST.
1 Corinthians 10:4
King James Version
4 And did all drink the same spiritual drink:
for they drank of that spiritual Rock
that followed them:
and that Rock was Christ.
JESUS is the ONLY foundation.
1 Corinthians 3:11
King James Version
11 For other foundation can no man lay
than that is laid,
which is Jesus Christ.
We are to flee evil.
Isaiah 59:7
King James Version
7 Their feet run to evil,
and they make haste to shed innocent blood:
their thoughts are thoughts of iniquity;
wasting and destruction are in their paths.
Instead, we are to walk in the Spirit.
Galatians 5:16
King James Version
16 This I say then,
Walk in the Spirit,
and ye shall not fulfil the lust of the flesh.
In the next post, we shall look more into iron, and miry clay, from another intriguing verse.
And how current times reveal corruption involving man, and CHRIST's enemy.
