DREAMS AND SYMBOLS
FROM THE BIBLE - PART 1

WARNING TO KING ABIMELECH
 Genesis 20:3 NKJV)
 3 But God came to Abimelech in a dream by
night, and said to him, “Indeed you are a
dead man because of the woman whom you
have taken, for she is a man‟s wife.”

GENESIS 31:10-12 (NKJV)
 10 “And it happened, at the time when the flocks
conceived, that I lifted my eyes and saw in a
dream, and behold, the rams which leaped upon
the flocks were streaked, speckled, and gray-
spotted. 11 Then the Angel of God spoke to me
in a dream, saying, „Jacob.‟ And I said, „Here I
am.‟ 12 And He said, „Lift your eyes now and
see, all the rams which leap on the
flocks are streaked, speckled, and gray-spotted;
for I have seen all that Laban is doing to you.

ORDER GIVEN TO JACOB
 Genesis 31:13
 New King James Version (NKJV)
 13 I am the God of Bethel, where you
anointed the pillar and where you made a
vow to Me. Now arise, get out of this
land, and return to the land of your family.‟”

 6 So he said to them, “Please hear this dream
which I have dreamed: 7 There we were, binding
sheaves in the field. Then behold, my sheaf
arose and also stood upright; and indeed your
sheaves stood all around and bowed down to
my sheaf.”
 8 And his brothers said to him, “Shall you indeed
reign over us? Or shall you indeed have
dominion over us?” So they hated him even
more for his dreams and for his words.

 9 Then he dreamed still another dream and told
it to his brothers, and said, “Look, I have
dreamed another dream. And this time, the
sun, the moon, and the eleven stars bowed
down to me.”
 10 So he told it to his father and his brothers; and
his father rebuked him and said to
him, “What is this dream that you have
dreamed? Shall your mother and I and your
brothers indeed come to bow down to the earth
before you?”

INTERPRETATION BELONG TO GOD
 Genesis 40:8 (NKJV)
 8 And they said to him, “We each have had a
dream, and there is no interpreter of it.”
 So Joseph said to them, “Do not
interpretations belong to God? Tell them to
me, please.”

9 Then the chief butler told his dream to Joseph, and said
to him, “Behold, in my dream a vine was before
me,10 and in the vine were three branches; it was as
though it budded, its blossoms shot forth, and its
clusters brought forth ripe grapes. 11 Then Pharaoh‟s
cup was in my hand; and I took the grapes and pressed
them into Pharaoh‟s cup, and placed the cup in
Pharaoh‟s hand.” 12 And Joseph said to him, “This is the
interpretation of it: The three branches are three
days. 13 Now within three days Pharaoh will lift up your
head and restore you to your place, and you will put
Pharaoh‟s cup in his hand according to the former
manner, when you were his butler.

 16 When the chief baker saw that the
interpretation was good, he said to Joseph, “I
also was in my dream, and there were three
white baskets on my head. 17 In the uppermost
basket were all kinds of baked goods for
Pharaoh, and the birds ate them out of the
basket on my head.” 18 So Joseph answered
and said, “This is the interpretation of it: The
three baskets are three days. 19 Within three
days Pharaoh will lift off your head from you and
hang you on a tree; and the birds will eat your
flesh from you.”

PHARAOH’S DREAMS OF THE COWS
AND THE GRAIN HEADS

GENESIS 41:1-4 (NIV) PHARAOH’S DREAMS
 41 When two full years had passed, Pharaoh
had a dream: He was standing by the
Nile, 2 when out of the river there came up
seven cows, sleek and fat, and they grazed
among the reeds. 3 After them, seven other
cows, ugly and gaunt, came up out of the
Nile and stood beside those on the
riverbank. 4 And the cows that were ugly and
gaunt ate up the seven sleek, fat cows. Then
Pharaoh woke up.

DANIEL 2:27-30 (NKJV)
 27 Daniel answered in the presence of the
king, and said, “The secret which the king
has demanded, the wise men, the
astrologers, the magicians, and the
soothsayers cannot declare to the king. 28 But
there is a God in heaven who reveals
secrets, and He has made known to King
Nebuchadnezzar what will be in the latter
days. Your dream, and the visions of your
head upon your bed, were these:

NEBUCHADNEZZAR’S DREAM:
THE GREAT IMAGE

 31 “You, O king, were watching; and behold, a
great image! This great image, whose
splendor was excellent, stood before you;
and its form was awesome. 32 This image‟s
head was of fine gold, its chest and arms of
silver, its belly and thighs of bronze, 33 its legs
of iron, its feet partly of iron and partly of clay.

THE GREAT IMAGE REPRESENTATION

 34 You watched while a stone was cut out
without hands, which struck the image on its
feet of iron and clay, and broke them in
pieces. 35 Then the iron, the clay, the
bronze, the silver, and the gold were crushed
together, and became like chaff from the
summer threshing floors; the wind carried
them away so that no trace of them was
found. And the stone that struck the image
became a great mountain and filled the
whole earth.

 There are many dreams in the Bible, we will
have a view to some of them in the future.
