"Foreign God" Means "Alien" in Hebrew

Dear sir,

I discovered this morning that the word for a "foreign god" in Daniel 11:39 means "alien" in Hebrew.

Dan.11:39
"Thus, he shall act against the strongest fortresses with a "foreign god" "eloha-nechar")("ch" as in "loch-ness), which he shall acknowledge, and advance its glory and he shall cause them to rule over many and divide the land for gain."

The word "nechar" means foreign or alien.
"nechari" means "an alien".

Indeed in the time of Daniel, a foreigner was also called an alien, but, what struck me is that there was no knowledge then that english would be the world language.

There is a double-meaning here I believe, that could only be known in our time.

The modern word for "alien" in Israel today is "mivachutz", or, "a being from out side".

Often prophecy is full of codes that can only be deciphered in their day.

This passage told to Daniel was said to be for "the time of the end".

This term "the time of the end" is used 4 times between Daniel 11 and 12.

So, when I read the same passage with this thought, I get this:

"Thus he will act against the strongest fortresses (world powers) with an alien-god, (a powerful alien being) which he shall acknowledge (recognize as the progenitor of mankind) and advance its glory (in the eyes of the whole world) and he shall cause them (the aliens) to rule over many (the inhabitants of the earth), and divide the land for gain." (The whole world?)

Just a thought...
