If this is true Trintin we will need to find somewhere in the text that specifies where God is shifting his focus. We know he his speaking directly to these ancient kings because he says so. If he is shifting the subject of his address we will need to find where in the text he tells us this.[/QUOTEn
see that he is refering to principalities powers, and spiritual wickedness If God speaks of them as being in the garden ,then speaks of them as a power of the time ,we can see he is speakng of non human beings .Principalities and powers amd spiritual wickedness in high places maybe. This is not only for their time but also ours and the future , it is prophesy. Jesus is the word; Rev. says that Jesus Christ is the spirit of prophesy. Jesus also opened up the sciptures to his disciples and shewed them that the law and the prophets spoke of him and about him.Whats more we need to be reading the part God speaks to Israel for the wicked life she was leading and as Gods choosen people be beseching God our father to help us to live a life pleasing to him at this time , but anyway I think that the trees in Ez are rulers of this world. Spirits!!! Danial was told that his prophesy was shut up till the end and the knowledge would increase and many would go to and fro.Maybe it is getting close enough to the end that God will begin to give us understandng of Dans visions,The whole world lies in wickedness God knows that we will need his word mor and more,
