Daniel 8:25

And through his policy also he shall cause craft to prosper in his hand; and he shall magnify himself in his heart, and by peace shall destroy many: he shall also stand up against the Prince of princes; but he shall be broken without hand.

This verse refers to Herod the Great who was broken by disease.

Revelation 12:4

And in his tail drew the third part of the stars of heaven, and did cast them to the earth: and the dragon stood before the woman which was ready to be delivered, for to devour her child as soon as it was born.

Herod attempted to try to stop the ascension of the Prince of princes to the throne in earth, and the dragon tried to prevent the ascension The Prince of princes to the Throne in Heaven.

Perhaps, the visions of Daniel have had earthly histories and the visions of John were/are the behind the scenes Heavenly histories.

Many likely have noticed that Daniel's visions help the elect of the "thy people" in earthly governments in time to reach by faith the Government established in Christ Jesus. The visions of Daniel and the prophets of old end at Christ and new visions by born again believers begin in Christ Jesus. John by Revelation like Daniel was granted visions of the gospel age, from Jesus to the end of time which are spiritual in understanding. Thus, we must be born again to understand this present Kingdom of Peace and the time that remains. It is later than many think.
