                 “But go thy way till the end be: for thou shalt rest and stand in thy
                                   lot at the end of the days.” Daniel 12:13.


               present  at  times  in  Italy,  the  recognized


               religion of the Roman emperor and the empire


               itself, the northern kingdom, which now had


               its  seat  at  Constantinople,  was  the  Catholic


               faith, as proclaimed at Nice. As Constantinople


               was  the  representative  of  this  northern


               division in his day, so later, between 527 and


               565,  Justinian  became  champion  of  the


               Catholic cause.



               According to the vision of Daniel 7, the Roman


               kingdom  would  be  divided  into  ten  parts,


               represented  by  the  ten  horns  of  the  fourth



               beast, and three of these kingdoms should be


               plucked up by another power. It is this part of


               the  history  of  the  fourth  kingdom  which  is


               related  in  Daniel  11,  beginning  with  verse


               twenty-five.
