What does the goat symbolize in the bible?

In most Bible illustrations, the goat is used to signify stubbornness, rebellion and disobedience.

However, this is quite different from the he-goat in Daniel's prophecy in Daniel chapter 7 and 8. In Daniel's prophecy, a male goat with a great horn at the centre of its head destroyed the ram with two horns. This male goat signifies the Greecian empire which conquered the Medo-Persian Empire (the ram with two horns) with the help of their first king- Alexander, the great (who was the great horn at the middle of the head of the goat). The great horn being later broken in Daniel Chapter 8 signifies the untimely death of Alexander the Great. After his death, his kingdom was divided into four weaker kingdoms (Daniel 8:8,22) namely: Greece and Macedonia, Asian Minor, Egypt and Palestine, Syria and Babylon.
