Context — Daniel’s Visions Interpreted
22until the Ancient of Days arrived and pronounced judgment in favor of the saints of the Most High, and the time came for them to possess the kingdom.
23This is what he said: ‘The fourth beast is a fourth kingdom that will appear on the earth, different from all the other kingdoms, and it will devour the whole earth, trample it down, and crush it.
24And the ten horns are ten kings who will rise from this kingdom. After them another king, different from the earlier ones, will rise and subdue three kings.
25He will speak out against the Most High and oppress the saints of the Most High, intending to change the appointed times and laws; and the saints will be given into his hand for a time, and times, and half a time. 26But the court will convene, and his dominion will be taken away and completely destroyed forever.Cross References

Daniel 7:24 Summary
[Daniel 7:24 talks about a powerful kingdom that will rise in the future, with ten kings and then another king who will be different from the others. This other king will be very powerful and will speak out against God, as seen in Daniel 7:25. He will also try to change the times and laws, but ultimately, he will be destroyed by God, as seen in Daniel 7:26 and Revelation 19:20. This verse reminds us that even though the world may seem to be in chaos, God is still in control and will ultimately triumph over evil, as described in Revelation 20:1-22:6.]
Frequently Asked Questions

Who is the other king that will rise after the ten kings in Daniel 7:24?

Gill's Exposition on Daniel 7:24
And the ten horns out of this kingdom are ten kings that shall arise,..... Or ten kingdoms which sprung out of the Roman empire, or into which it was broken and divided upon the dissolution of it, about A.D.
Jamieson-Fausset-Brown on Daniel 7:24
And the ten horns out of this kingdom are ten kings that shall arise: and another shall rise after them; and he shall be diverse from the first, and he shall subdue three kings.
Matthew Poole's Commentary on Daniel 7:24
Ten kings; which Junius, Piscator, Polanus make to be the kings of Syria, and reckon ten of them, and that is not all neither; the tenth is Antiochus, but this cannot be, for he died one hundred and sixty years before Christ. Others interpret the other that riseth after the ten, and that shall subdue three, to be Mahomet; but Maldonate himself saith it agrees better to antichrist, and the 25th verse too, where he speaks of changing times and laws, which God hath set; none of which things he could do, but that God gives him commission for it, till God’ s set time be fulfilled, which is three years and a half, i.e. one thousand two hundred and sixty years; or forty-two months, which is all the time of the witnesses prophesying in sackcloth, of the church’ s being in the wilderness, and of antichrist’ s reign, 12:6 13:5,6, &c.: mind these places and compare this of Daniel with them, and ,27, how he shall be judged and executed. The sixth and seventh vials will decide, and illustrate all this.
Trapp's Commentary on Daniel 7:24
Daniel 7:24 And the ten horns out of this kingdom [are] ten kings [that] shall arise: and another shall rise after them; and he shall be diverse from the first, and he shall subdue three kings.Ver. 24. And the ten horns out of this kingdom.] He saith not kingdoms: this maketh against those that make the Seleucidae and Legidae, the fourth monarchy. And he shall be diverse from the first.] For the first were secular kings, but he styleth himself chief bishop and head of the Church, having both Peter’ s keys and Paul’ s sword, &c. And he shall subdue three kings.] See on Daniel 7:8.
Cambridge Bible on Daniel 7:24
24. The ten horns are ten kings. and he (emph.) shall be diverse from the former ones] The king represented by the ‘little horn’ will differ from the others, viz. by being aggressive and presumptuous. and he shall subdue three kings] put down (R.V.), as the same word is rendered in the A.V. of Daniel 5:19 and Psalms 75:7. Abase, bring down, lay low, is the idea of the word (Isaiah 2:12; Isaiah 25:11-12; Isaiah 26:5). Cf. Daniel 7:8. On the interpretation, see the Additional Note at the end of the Chapter.
Whedon's Commentary on Daniel 7:24
24. The fourth kingdom is here represented as a beast whose “ten horns” are ten kings. There has been great diversity of opinion as to the particular kings meant.
