Daniel 10:1-3

A Visão do Homem Vestido de Linho

1 No terceiro ano de Ciro, rei da Pérsia, Daniel, chamado Beltessazar, recebeu uma revelação. A mensagem era verdadeira e falava de uma grande guerra.^[a] Na visão que teve, ele entendeu a mensagem.

2 Naquela ocasião eu, Daniel, passei três semanas chorando.

3 Não comi nada saboroso; carne e vinho nem provei; e não usei nenhuma essência aromática, até se passarem as três semanas.

Daniel 10:1-3 Meaning and Commentary

INTRODUCTION TO DANIEL 10

This chapter is an introduction to the prophecies contained in the two following chapters; and begins with an account of Daniel's mourning and fasting, preparatory to the vision he had, Da 10:1-3, and of the appearance of Christ to him, with the time and place of it; who is described by his clothing, and the several parts of his body, which were very glorious, he appearing in a human form, Da 10:4-6, then follows an account of the effects it had upon him, Da 10:7-9, and of what encouragement and strength he received from him, by words and touches, to listen to what he said; and to expect a discovery and an understanding of things of moment and importance, which should be in future times, Da 10:10-21.
