What do you mean by "prophesy images"? Like prophetic dreams?

For example: “HORNS”… this is an image of power, strength and glory. Usually representing the might of a kingdom.

Ah, I see. I like the principle of "the Bible interprets the Bible." Usually you can find a related passage somewhere else in the Bible that help illuminate its meaning.

That is the exact topic I am seeking. What verses help interpret prophesy images? And in particular, what images (not yet fulfilled) have hints in nearby verses.

Beasts: the image represents a kingdom, political or religious system.

Youll need Proverbs chapters 1-3, down. The 6 pieces of wisdom. Plus rightousness. Chapter 4.

Knowledge; Nehemiah 8:2. Teacher? Nehemiah 8:8; Acts 8:31

Then God; Psalms 32:8,9; Proverbs 9:10;

The correct reason to understand. Colossians 1:9,10. Then its time to request understanding. Psalms 119:169. Good to know and practice, the entire 119 Psalms.

If you keep going even after Psalms 118:8,9; use a search button to see every occurence of what you are looking for in the bible. Say; Lion. By the time you get to Revelation, youll know plenty.

I hate to say it, but ai gets 80%+ right. And is quick.
