Daniel 8:1

[Chronologically, the visions in chapters 7 and 8 occur long before the events in chapter 5, which describes Belshazzar's feast. The fact that Daniel had had these visions more than ten years before that event helped him to interpret the writing on the wall. From chapter 8 until the end of the book, the text is written in Hebrew. The middle section, between 2:4 and 7:28, is written in Aramaic. The visions in chapters 2, 7, and 8 have several points of contact where the same kingdoms are described. The switch back to Hebrew, here in chapter 8, indicates that the vision here is directed specifically at the Jewish people. From dealing with general world events, it now describes in more detail how the great powers will affect Israel and the temple, see Dan. 8:9, 11.]
In the third year of King Belshazzar's reign [over Babylon, around 551-550 BC], I, Daniel, had another vision after the one I had seen before [two years earlier, see Dan. 7:1].
