Daniel 2:35 Meaning and Explanation
“Then was the iron, the clay, the brass, the silver, and the gold, broken to pieces together, and became like the chaff of the summer threshingfloors; and the wind carried them away, that no place was found for them: and the stone that smote the image became a great mountain, and filled the whole earth.”

What Does Daniel 2:35 Mean?
The entire image, gold and silver and bronze and iron and clay, is shattered together and swept away like chaff before the wind, leaving no trace. Then the stone that struck it grows into a great mountain that fills the whole earth.
Here the vision reaches its glorious climax. The kingdoms of men, for all their splendor, prove as light as husks at harvest; the kingdom God establishes fills everything and endures. Christians have long seen in this stone-become-mountain the everlasting kingdom of Christ, born small and unnoticed, yet destined to fill the earth and outlast every throne.
