Understanding the Prophecy of Daniel 11:2 - Cyrus, Cambyses II, False Smerdis, Darius I & Xerxes I

This is a Daniel 11:2 "for Dummies" presentation that fills Daniel 11 with all the fun historical stories from Cyrus the Great, Cambyses II, False Smerdis, Darius I and Xerxes I. See the original sources and simple explanations you will ever need to help you understand this utterly literal and actually simple chapter if you know the history. In this chapter you will see progress from Cyrus II aka Cyrus the Great to see his son Cambyses II usurped by False Smerdis (aka Gaumata not to be confused with Bardiya/the real Smerdis) only to be assassinated by Darius I's (aka Darius Hystaspas) coup then brought to full grandeur under Xerxes I. This verse (Daniel 11:1) is so simple, even sceptics must give serious contemplation. Please enjoy my work of some 100 hours.

Proudly presented by The New Loud Cry.

NB: This presentation is self sufficient, but is best to be seen in the light of "Understanding Daniel 11 - Introduction" followed by "Understanding Daniel 11 - Verse 1".
