"Gold of Uphaz" & Antichrist

DOES THE "GOLD OF UPHAZ" INDICATE THE
MIDDLE EAST SOURCE OF THE ANTICHRIST?

Daniel 10:5 --

"Then I lifted up mine eyes, and looked, and behold a certain man clothed in linen, whose loins were girded with fine gold of Uphaz:"

If this "certain man" of Daniel's vision in 10:5, 6 is a representation of the Antichrist, as indicated in the Angel Gabriet's interpretation in 11:21-45, the reference to the "gold of Uphaz" apparently indicates where the Antichrist will come from, which would be the Middle East.

There is only one other Scripture about "Uphaz," namely, Jeremiah 10:8, 9 where the "gold from Uphaz" is associated with idol worship. Jeremiah was in Babylonian captivity and he writes about this idolatry in chapter 10. This places the "gold from Uphaz" in the Middle East which at that time was under Babylonian rule.

This "gold of Uphaz" symbol indicates that the
"certain man" (Antichrist) will come from the Middle
East.

Note: The "beryl" in Daniel 10:5, 6 is associated with SATAN in Ezekie 28:13.
