Daniel 10:14 Meaning and Commentary

Daniel 10:14

Now I am come to make thee to understand what shall befall
thy people in the latter days
The contest being over with the prince of Persia, and having got an advantage, and carried his point in favour of the Jews; he came directly to Daniel, to inform him of what should befall the people of the Jews in the succeeding monarchies, especially in the times of Antiochus; and even of all that should befall them until the Messiah came, as Aben Ezra rightly interprets it; for the last days generally design the days of the Messiah; see ( Genesis 49:1 ) ( Isaiah 2:2 ) : for yet the vision is for many days;
before it will be accomplished; reaching not only to the times of Antiochus, three hundred years after this, but even to the times of antichrist, of whom he was a type; and to the resurrection of the dead, and the end of time, as the two next chapters show; see ( Habakkuk 2:3 ) .
