Think about that! During the time of Babylonian world power, the Bible foretold that the succeeding powers would be Medo- Persia and Greece. Moreover. as noted earlier, the Bible specifically stated that "as soon as it became mighty the great horn"-Alexander-be "broken" and would be replaced by four others, adding further than none of them would Alexander's prosperity. - DANIEL 11:4.
That prophecy was fulfilled in detail. Alexander became king in 336 B.C.E., at the age of 32. No single individual succeeded Alexander as absolute ruler, nor did any of his offspring. Rather, his four leading generals-Lysimachus, Cassander, Seleucus, and Ptolemy-"proclaimed themselves kings" and took over the empire, states the book The Hellenistic Age.
