Story behind the song
This song was composed on 10/29/2025. With it, I have composed the last song section still needed to complete the Book of Daniel. I now have composed music for 24 books of the Bible. This is the continuation of prophecies concerning the intertestamental period of the Bible, after Alexander the Great divided up his empire among four of his generals.
Lyrics
29At the appointed time he shall return and go toward the south; but it shall not be like the former or the latter.
30For ships from Cyprus shall come against him; therefore he shall be grieved, and return in rage against the holy covenant, and do damage. So he shall return and show regard for those who forsake the holy covenant.
31And forces shall be mustered by him, and they shall defile the sanctuary fortress; then they shall take away the daily sacrifices, and place there the abomination of desolation.
32Those who do wickedly against the covenant he shall corrupt with flattery; but the people who know their God shall be strong, and carry out great exploits.
33And those of the people who understand shall instruct many; yet for many days they shall fall by sword and flame, by captivity and plundering.
34Now when they fall, they shall be aided with a little help; but many shall join with them by intrigue.
35And some of those of understanding shall fall, to refine them, purify them, and make them white, until the time of the end; because it is still for the appointed time.
36"Then the king shall do according to his own will: he shall exalt and magnify himself above every god, shall speak blasphemies against the God of gods, and shall prosper till the wrath has been accomplished; for what has been determined shall be done.
37He shall regard neither the God of his fathers nor the desire of women, nor regard any god; for he shall exalt himself above them all.
38But in their place he shall honor a god of fortresses; and a god which his fathers did not know he shall honor with gold and silver, with precious stones and pleasant things.
39Thus he shall act against the strongest fortresses with a foreign god, which he shall acknowledge, and advance its glory; and he shall cause them to rule over many, and divide the land for gain.
40"At the time of the end the king of the South shall attack him; and the king of the North shall come against him like a whirlwind, with chariots, horsemen, and with many ships; and he shall enter the countries, overwhelm them, and pass through.
41He shall also enter the Glorious Land, and many countries shall be overthrown; but these shall escape from his hand: Edom, Moab, and the prominent people of Ammon.
42He shall stretch out his hand against the countries, and the land of Egypt shall not escape.
43He shall have power over the treasures of gold and silver, and over all the precious things of Egypt; also the Libyans and Ethiopians shall follow at his heels.
44But news from the east and the north shall trouble him; therefore he shall go out with great fury to destroy and annihilate many.
45And he shall plant the tents of his palace between the seas and the glorious holy mountain; yet he shall come to his end, and no one will help him.
