A Commentary, Critical, Practical, and Explanatory on the Old and New Testaments, by Robert Jamieson, A.R. Fausset and David Brown [1882]
ten horns--answering to the ten "toes" (Dan 2:41).

out of this kingdom--It is out of the fourth kingdom that ten others arise, whatever exterior territory any of them possess (Rev 13:1; Rev 17:12).

rise after them--yet contemporaneous with them; the ten are contemporaries. Antichrist rises after their rise, at first "little" (Dan 7:8); but after destroying three of the ten, he becomes greater than them all (Dan 7:20-21). The three being gone, he is the eighth (compare Rev 17:11); a distinct head, and yet "of the seven." As the previous world kingdoms had their representative heads (Babylon, Nebuchadnezzar; Persia, Cyrus; Greece, Alexander), so the fourth kingdom and its Antichrists shall have their evil concentrated in the one final Antichrist. As Antiochus Epiphanes, the Antichrist of the third kingdom in Dan 8:23-25, was the personal enemy of God, so the final Antichrist of the fourth kingdom, his antitype. The Church has endured a pagan and a papal persecution; there remains for her an infidel persecution, general, purifying, and cementing [CECIL]. He will not merely, as Popery, substitute himself for Christ in Christ's name, but "deny the Father and the Son" (Jo1 2:22). The persecution is to continue up to Christ's second coming (Dan 7:21-22); the horn of blasphemy cannot therefore be past; for now there is almost a general cessation of persecution.

21 I beheld [01934] [02370], and the same [01797] horn [07162] made [05648] war [07129] with [05974] the saints [06922], and prevailed [03202] against them;
22 Until [05705] the Ancient [06268] of days [03118] came [0858] [01768], and judgment [01780] was given [03052] to the saints [06922] of the most High [05946]; and the time [02166] came [04291] that the saints [06922] possessed [02631] the kingdom [04437].
22 Who [5101] is [2076] a liar [5583] but [1508] he that denieth [720] that [3754] Jesus [2424] is [2076] [3756] the Christ [5547]? He [3778] is [2076] antichrist [500], that denieth [720] the Father [3962] and [2532] the Son [5207].
23 And in the latter time [0319] of their kingdom [04438], when the transgressors [06586] are come to the full [08552], a king [04428] of fierce [05794] countenance [06440], and understanding [0995] dark sentences [02420], shall stand up [05975].
24 And his power [03581] shall be mighty [06105], but not by his own power [03581]: and he shall destroy [07843] wonderfully [06381], and shall prosper [06743], and practise [06213], and shall destroy [07843] the mighty [06099] and the holy [06918] people [05971].
25 And through his policy [07922] also he shall cause craft [04820] to prosper [06743] in his hand [03027]; and he shall magnify [01431] himself in his heart [03824], and by peace [07962] shall destroy [07843] many [07227]: he shall also stand up [05975] against the Prince [08269] of princes [08269]; but he shall be broken [07665] without [0657] hand [03027].
11 And [2532] the beast [2342] that [3739] was [2258], and [2532] is [2076] not [3756], even [2532] he [846] is [2076] the eighth [3590], and [2532] is [2076] of [1537] the seven [2033], and [2532] goeth [5217] into [1519] perdition [684].
20 And of [05922] the ten [06236] horns [07162] that were in his head [07217], and of the other [0317] which came up [05559], and before [04481] [06925] whom three [08532] fell [05308]; even of that horn [07162] that [01797] had eyes [05870], and a mouth [06433] that spake [04449] very great things [07260], whose look [02376] was more [04481] stout [07229] than [04481] his fellows [02273].
21 I beheld [01934] [02370], and the same [01797] horn [07162] made [05648] war [07129] with [05974] the saints [06922], and prevailed [03202] against them;
8 I considered [01934] [07920] the horns [07162], and, behold [0431], there came up [05559] among [0997] them another [0317] little [02192] horn [07162], before [06925] [04481] whom there were three [08532] of [04481] the first [06933] horns [07162] plucked up by the roots [06132]: and, behold [0431], in this [01668] horn [07162] were eyes [05870] like the eyes [05870] of man [0606], and a mouth [06433] speaking [04449] great things [07260].
12 And [2532] the ten [1176] horns [2768] which [3739] thou sawest [1492] are [1526] ten [1176] kings [935], which [3748] have received [2983] no [3768] kingdom [932] as yet [3768]; but [235] receive [2983] power [1849] as [5613] kings [935] one [3391] hour [5610] with [3326] the beast [2342].
1 And [2532] I stood [2476] upon [1909] the sand [285] of the sea [2281], and [2532] saw [1492] a beast [2342] rise up [305] out of [1537] the sea [2281], having [2192] seven [2033] heads [2776] and [2532] ten [1176] horns [2768], and [2532] upon [1909] his [846] horns [2768] ten [1176] crowns [1238], and [2532] upon [1909] his [846] heads [2776] the name [3686] of blasphemy [988].
41 And whereas thou sawest [02370] the feet [07271] and toes [0677], part [04481] of potters [06353]' clay [02635], and part [04481] of iron [06523], the kingdom [04437] shall be [01934] divided [06386]; but [04481] there shall be [01934] in it of [04481] the strength [05326] of the iron [06523], forasmuch as [03606] [06903] thou sawest [02370] the iron [06523] mixed [06151] with miry [02917] clay [02635].
