Daniele 11:13 Meaning and Commentary

Daniel 11:13

For the king of the north shall return
As Antiochus king of Syria did, upon the death of Ptolemy Philopator, who was succeeded by his son Ptolemy Epiphanes, a minor of five years of age: Antiochus took the advantage of this minority, and entered into a league with Philip king of Macedon, to divide the kingdom of Egypt between them; and marched an army into Coelesyria and Palestine, and made himself master of those countries: and shall set forth a multitude greater than the former;
bring a larger army into the field than he had done before, which Jerom says he brought out of the upper parts of Babylon; some say it consisted of three hundred thousand footmen, besides horsemen and elephants: and shall certainly come (after certain years) with a great army, and
with much riches;
with all manner of provisions to supply his numerous army, and all proper accommodations for it; money to pay his soldiers, and beasts of burden to carry their baggage from place to place: this was about fourteen years after the former battle, as Dr. Prideaux F16 observes; and, according to Bishop Usher's annals, thirteen years.

Daniele 11:13 In-Context

11 E il re del Mezzodì, inasprito, uscirà fuori, e combatterà con lui, cioè col re del Settentrione, il qual leverà una gran moltitudine; ma quella moltitudine sarà data in man del re del Mezzodì.
12 E dopo ch’egli avrà disfatta quella moltitudine, il cuor suo s’innalzerà; onde, benchè abbia abbattute delle decine di migliaia, non però sarà fortificato.
13 E il re del Settentrione leverĂ  di nuovo una moltitudine maggiore della primiera; e in capo di qualche tempo, ed anni, egli verrĂ  con grosso esercito, e con grande apparecchio.
14 E in quei tempi molti si leveranno contro al re del Mezzodì; e degli uomini ladroni d’infra il tuo popolo si eleveranno, per adempier la visione; e caderanno.
15 E il re del Settentrione verrà, e farà degli argini, e prenderà le città delle fortezze; e le braccia del Mezzodì, e la scelta del suo popolo non potranno durare, e non vi sarà forza alcuna da resistere.
