Prophecies of Daniel could symbolize the Fascist invasion of Haile Selassie's Ethiopia since there can be no doubt that the reference in Daniel 7 is to God as Judge; hence Daniel means "God Has Judged", "God is Judge", or "God Will Judge", and HIM did judge the League of (many) Nations in June 1936 saying:
"I, Qedamawi Haile Selassie, Emperor of Ethiopia, am here today to claim that JUSTICE which is due to my people, and the assistance promised to it eight months ago, when fifty nations asserted that aggression had been committed in violation of international treaties"
"Apart from the Kingdom of the Lord there is not on this earth any nation that is superior to any other. Should it happen that a strong Government finds it may with impunity destroy a weak people, then the hour strikes for that weak people to appeal to the League of Nations to give its JUDGEMENT in all freedom. GOD AND HISTORY WILL REMEMBER YOUR JUDGEMENT"
Daniel 7:25 "And he (Mussolini) shall speak great words against the most High (HIM), and shall wear out the saints of the most High (Ethiopians), and think to change times and laws: and they shall be given into his hand until a time and times and the dividing of time."
First we must realized "Time" is only relevant in this 3rd dimension (density) and is seem as an Illusion since the sun does not rise and set; the earth moves around the sun and this action is filtered through the spectrum as seasons, night and day etc. As Color is to broken light as sound is to broken movement. Each thing impresses upon the other; prism or crystal reveals the hidden Seven rays of the sun-life giver to earth.
Time spelled backward is the word "Emit", meaning something that is send forth or goes out from a source; secretion of a gland or solar flares of the sun etc.
A "Time" in the book of Daniel symbolize to me a point of time as measured in hours (o'clock) and then can be converted into lunar months and solar years.
Some theologians interpret "time and times and the dividing of time" as 3.5 years but I say a time symbolize a day, which is 24 hours. The second "times" in Daniel 7:25 is not plural but singular as the same Hebrew word "Iddan"is used:
Time=24 hrs
Time=24 hrs
half of Time=12 hrs
24+24+12=60 (60 second in a minute & 60 minute in an hour)
60 months and their is 12 months within a year (60/12)=5 years
or
60 hours is 5 days and 5 days symbolize 5 years
Selassie went into exile exactly 5 years (May 5, 1936 - May 5, 1941)
"The date (May 5, 1941) Haile Selassie chose to re-enter his capital was heavy with symbolism. Exactly five years before, on May 5, 1936, the Italian Army moved into the capital of Ethiopia, forcing Selassie into exile"
May 5 is also Cinco de Mayo
Revelation 12:14 "And to the woman (imperial family) were given two wings of a great eagle (Train & British ship), that she might fly into the wilderness (Bath, England), into her place, where she is nourished for a time, and times, and half a time (5 years), from the face of the serpent (Fascist Italy)."
The "two wings of a great eagle" symbolize the two means of transportation the Ethiopian Imperial family uses to exile Ethiopia. The Imperial Family traveled by train to Djibouti in French Somaliland where they boarded the British cruiser HMS Enterprise to sail into exile.
The word "cherub" has no etymology in the Hebrew language. Both the word and the concept is Babylonian, not Hebrew and remember Ezekiel was in Babylon when he saw this great sight (Land of the Sumerian's Anunnaki). Cherub can be derived from the Hebrew root ק;ר;ב; (qarab) and it's cognate to the Assyrian word kirbu, meaning "midst" (middle part or among). Another root word is the masculine noun ק;ר;ב; (qerab), meaning battle or war (a hostile approach - Job 38:23) i.e the army is approaching.
So even though a Cherubim is an angelic being with the capabilities of flight but in Ezekiel 10 it symbolize a steam train, which HIM used to escape the hostile fascist Italian army that was approaching.
Ezekiel 10 symbolized a Steam Train which is a series of railroad cars moved as a unit by a locomotive. These locomotives are fueled by burning combustible material—usually coal, wood, or oil—to produce steam in a boiler
Ezekiel 10:2-13 "And he spake unto the man clothed with linen, and said, Go in between the wheels, even under the cherub, and fill thine hand with coals of fire from between the cherubims, and scatter them over the city. And he went in in my sight. Now the cherubims stood on the right side of the house, when the man went in; and the cloud filled the inner court. Then the glory of the Lord went up from the cherub, and stood over the threshold of the house; and the house was filled with the cloud (smoke or steam from the train), and the court was full of the brightness of the Lord's glory. And the sound of the cherubims' wings (train sound) was heard even to the outer court, as the voice of the Almighty God when he speaketh. And it came to pass, that when he had commanded the man clothed with linen, saying, Take fire from between the wheels, from between the cherubims (smoke issuing between the wheels of the train); then he went in, and stood beside the wheels. and one cherub stretched forth his hand from between the cherubims unto the fire that was between the cherubims (shoveling coal in furnace of steam locomotive), and took thereof, and put it into the hands of him that was clothed with linen: who took it, and went out. And there appeared in the cherubims the form of a man's hand under their wings. And when I looked, behold the four wheels (leading wheels) by the cherubims, one wheel by one cherub, and another wheel by another cherub (series of railroad cars): and the appearance of the wheels was as the colour of a beryl stone. And as for their appearances, they four had one likeness, as if a wheel had been in the midst of a wheel (spoked wheels of the train). When they went, they went upon their four sides; they turned not as they went, but to the place whither the head looked they followed it (locomotive); they turned not as they went. And their whole body, and their backs, and their hands, and their wings, and the wheels, were full of eyes round about (windows), even the wheels that they four had (spokes). As for the wheels, it was cried unto them in my hearing, O wheel."
Steam trains has 3 type of wheels: leading wheels, driving wheels and trailing wheels: In the notation a locomotive with two leading axles (four wheels) in front, then three driving axles (six wheels) and then one trailing axle (two wheels) is classified as 4-6-2. This can also be represented 'graphically' as ooOOOo.
