gathering of Israel to their land, makes a Pre -Millennial kingdom, except

that of the Antichristian Beast, impossible.

Passages and quotations could be multiplied, but we have seen

sufficient to show that Israel will remain in their dispersion and will not

be completely restored and regathered until Babylon is overthrown.  Gentile

dominion ends with the fall of Babylon, and this is set forth under the

symbol of a great image smashed to pieces by a stone cut out without hands

(Dan. 2).  The bearing upon the state of affairs at the time of the end, that

this image of Nebuchadnezzar's dream has, is considered under the title,

Image of Daniel 2 (p. 317).
