Latter-day Saints - Nebuchadnezzar's Dream


Expert: Brian Rogers - 5/10/2009

Question
As I understand Daniels interpretation of Nebuchadnezzar's Dream the head of Gold is Babylonia, the Persia is the breast and arms of silver, Macadonia is the belly and thighs of brass, the divided Roman Empire with one capital at Rome and one at Constantinople is the legs of iron, then the ten toes are ten kingdoms to come out of the Roman Empire.  What ten kingdoms came out of the Roman Empire and what are the dates of their exhistance?

Thank you,
Penny McKenzie

Answer
Penny,

I must admit you got me on this one. The only treatise I have ever read on the topic was a LDS perception written in 1902 by B.H Roberts. I took a quick look at it on the internet and it did not address what nations comprised the ten toes.

Sorry, I wish I had more on it for you. You may want to email the scholars over at www.fairlds.org and see what they may have on it.

Good luck,

brian
