Daniel 10:18 Meaning and Commentary

Daniel 10:18

Then there came again and touched me one like the appearance
of a man
Or one like a man again touched him; the same that touched him before, ( Daniel 10:16 ) , perhaps Gabriel, since he uses the same language in the following verse as he does ( Daniel 10:11 ) : and he strengthened me;
both in body and mind, by his free and familiar conversation with him, and the comfortable words he spoke to him, a divine power accompanying them for that purpose.

Daniel 10:18 In-Context

16 Et ecce quasi similitudo filii hominis tetigit labia mea: et aperiens os meum locutus sum, et dixi ad eum, qui stabat contra me: Domine mi, in visione tua dissolutae sunt compages meae, et nihil in me remansit virium.

17 Et quomodo poterit servus Domini mei loqui cum Domino meo? nihil enim in me remansit virium, sed et halitus meus intercluditur.

18 Rursum ergo tetigit me quasi visio hominis, et confortavit me,

19 et dixit: Noli timere vir desideriorum: pax tibi: confortare, et esto robustus. Cumque loqueretur mecum, convalui, et dixi: Loquere Domine mi, quia confortasti me.

20 Et ait: Numquid scis quare venerim ad te? et nunc revertar ut praelier adversum principem Persarum. cum ego egrederer, apparuit princeps Graecorum veniens.
