Even Daniel admits to being confused by his vision, but this one is explained. He learns that as empires rise and fall a time of great persecution is coming when a king will decisively set himself up against Gods people… and lose! Therefore Daniel trusts God enough to go about his daily business.  What would you do if you knew the end was nigh? Some would buy Ferraris, some would fast, but Daniel...
