Daniel 8:2-12

Listen to Daniel 8:2-12
2 En esta visi贸n me encontraba en la fortaleza de Susa, en la provincia de Elam, de pie junto al r铆o Ulai.
3 Cuando levant茅 los ojos, vi un carnero con dos cuernos largos, de pie junto al r铆o.
Uno de los cuernos era m谩s largo que el otro, a pesar de que le hab铆a crecido despu茅s.
4 El carnero embest铆a todo lo que encontraba a su paso hacia el occidente, el norte y el sur. Nadie pod铆a hacerle frente ni ayudar a sus v铆ctimas. El carnero hac铆a lo que quer铆a y se hizo muy poderoso.
5 Mientras yo observaba, de pronto apareci贸 un chivo desde el occidente y atraves贸 el campo con tanta rapidez que ni siquiera toc贸 la tierra. Este chivo, que ten铆a un cuerno enorme entre los ojos,
6 se dirigi贸 hacia el carnero de dos cuernos que yo hab铆a visto parado junto al r铆o y se abalanz贸 con furia sobre 茅l.
7 El chivo atac贸 con violencia al carnero y le dio un golpe que le quebr贸 ambos cuernos. El carnero qued贸 indefenso y el chivo lo derrib贸 y lo pisote贸. Nadie pudo rescatar al carnero del poder del chivo.
8 El chivo se hizo poderoso, pero cuando alcanz贸 el m谩ximo de su poder, se quebr贸 el enorme cuerno que ten铆a. En su lugar crecieron cuatro cuernos prominentes que apuntaban hacia los cuatro puntos cardinales.
9 Luego, de uno de los cuernos prominentes sali贸 un cuerno peque帽o cuyo poder creci贸 en gran manera. Se extend铆a hacia el sur y hacia el oriente y hacia el glorioso territorio de Israel.
10 Su poder lleg贸 hasta los cielos, donde atac贸 al ej茅rcito de los cielos y arroj贸 a la tierra a algunos de los seres celestiales y a algunas de las estrellas y los pisote贸.
11 Incluso desafi贸 al comandante del ej茅rcito de los cielos cancelando los sacrificios diarios que le ofrec铆an al comandante y destruyendo su templo.
12 No se le permiti贸 al ej茅rcito de los cielos responder a esta rebeli贸n. As铆 que se detuvieron los sacrificios diarios y la verdad fue derrocada. El cuerno tuvo 茅xito en todo lo que hizo.

Daniel 8:2-12 Meaning and Commentary

INTRODUCTION TO DANIEL 8

This chapter contains the vision of a ram and he goat, and the interpretation of it. It begins with observing the time and place of the vision, Da 8:1,2, then describes the ram seen; by the place of his situation; by his two horns; and by his pushing several ways with so much force and fury, that none could stand before him, or deliver: out of his hands, Da 8:3,4 next the he goat appears, and is described by the part from whence he came; the swiftness of his motion; the notable horn between his eyes; and his running to ram in great fury, smiting him between his horns, casting him to the ground, and trampling upon him, and none to deliver, Da 8:5-7 but, after waxing great and powerful, its horn was broken, and four more rose up in its stead, and out of one of them a little horn, Da 8:8,9 which little horn is described by its power and prevalence to the south and to the east, towards the pleasant land, the host of heaven, and the Prince of the host; and by it the stars were cast down and trampled upon, the daily sacrifice made to cease; the place of the sanctuary cast down, and truth itself, Da 8:9-12, and upon inquiry it appeared that these sacred things were to continue in this desolate condition unto 2300 days, Da 8:13,14. Daniel being desirous of knowing the meaning of this vision, the Angel Gabriel is ordered by Christ to give him an understanding of it; who drew near to him, and awaked him out of his sleep, and gave him the interpretation of it; Da 8:15-19, which is as follows; the ram; with two horns, signifies the kings of Media and Persia; the rough goat, the king of Greece; and the great horn the first king, Alexander the great; and the four horns, four kingdoms which rose up out of the Grecian empire upon his death, Da 8:20-22, and the little horn a king of fierce countenance, Antiochus Epiphanes; who is, described by his craft, and cunning, by his power and might, and by the destruction he should make; Da 8:23-25, this vision the angel assures the prophet was true, and bids him shut it up, since it was for many days, Da 8:26, upon which Daniel fainted, and was sick for a time; but afterwards recovered, so as to be able to do the king's business; but astonished at the vision himself, and which was not understood by others, Da 8:27.
