In '''Daniel's image''' in the second chapter of the [[Book of Daniel]] in the [[Bible]] we find the story of Babylonian King [[Nebuchadnezzar]] who has a troubling dream which none of the wise men of the kingdom can decipher for him. He calls in the prophet [[Daniel (prophet)|Daniel]] who is among a group of [[Hebrews]] taken captive by the [[Babylonians]]. The king demands an interpretation of the dream. Daniel relates that the king has had a vision of a statue. The head, chest, belly and legs of this statue, Daniel reveals, represent successive world ruling kingdoms. | In '''Daniel's image''' in the second chapter of the [[Book of Daniel]] in the [[Bible]] we find the story of Babylonian King [[Nebuchadnezzar]] who has a troubling dream which none of the wise men of the kingdom can decipher for him.
