The Seventh Paradox of Power Through Suffering

Daniel 9 is about the paradox of power through suffering.

And this actually carries through the visions of Daniel at the second half of the book where things get real psychedelic it's my favorite part I like it but again.

Later on an anointed one a Messiah who has to suffer before the kingdom of God can come.
