hello for_his_glory, dirtfarmer here
You do know that the Roman empire was divided into the western empire with Rome as it's capital and the eastern empire with Constantinople as it capital? The western fell in 476 AD and the eastern fell in 1453 when it was conquered by the Ottoman Turks and became an Islamic state. The western official language was Latin and the eastern was Greek. The Ottomans ruled until the 19th century and was dismantled by the Belfour Treaty. The league of Arab States, which consist of 10 middle eastern countries that have form a pact to join military forces.
I believe the "league of Arab States" is the beginning of the restoration of the kingdom that the tribulation time will happen and will usher
in the millennium.
A very brief picture of what I believe is about to come.
The League of Arab States being Islamic are not the same ten mentioned in Daniel 7.
The beast rises up out of the sea, Rev 13, as the sea here is symbolic of people and nations as in a sea of humanity, Daniel Chapter 7:1-8; Revelation 17:15. The seven heads are that of the Babylonian Empire, Medo/Persian Empire and Grecian Empire and Roman Empire. The ten horns represent the nations the Roman Empire scattered to when the deadly wound was put upon them, Daniel 7:23-25.
These ten nations were the Anglo-Saxons (English), the Franks (French), Suevi (Portuguese), Visigoths (Spanish), Burgundians (Swiss), Alemanni (Germans), Lombards (Italians), Ostrogoths, Heruli, and the Vandals in northern Africa. The last three being Ostrogoths, Heruli, and the Vandals had already been destroyed by the Roman Empire before their deadly wound came in 1798.
The beast out of the earth, Rev 13:11-18, is the revived Roman Empire (mystery Babylon) which causes man to take its mark, Daniel 7:24, 25 and another shall rise after them; and he shall be diverse from the first, He will think to change times and laws: and they shall be given into his hand until a time and times and the dividing of time.
