Daniele 9:17 Meaning and Commentary

Daniel 9:17

Now therefore, O our God
This being our miserable case, and the seventy years' captivity being at an end, and thou still our covenant God, whom we profess and worship: hear the prayer of thy servant, and his supplications;
which he had put up in an humble manner, consisting of various petitions for grace and mercy before expressed: and cause thy face to shine upon thy sanctuary that is desolate;
the temple; its walls demolished, its altars thrown down, and the whole in ruins; a melancholy scene! the Lord, suffering these things, seemed to frown upon it, and upon his people, that used to serve him there; wherefore it is entreated that he would smile upon it again, and upon them, and cause it to be rebuilt, and his worship restored in it: and this is asked for the Lord's sake:
that is, for Christ's sake, who is Lord of all, especially of his chosen people, by creation, redemption, and marriage, as well as by their own consent and profession; and for whose sake, and in whose name, all requests are to be made to God, he being the only Mediator between God and man; and for the sake of whose blood, righteousness, and mediation, all the blessings of goodness are given unto men; and who also was Lord and proprietor of the temple, and was to come into it, as well as was the antitype of it.

Daniele 9:17 In-Context

15 Ed ora, o Signore, Iddio nostro, che traesti il tuo popolo fuori del paese d’Egitto con mano potente, e ti facesti il nome che hai oggi, noi abbiamo peccato, abbiamo operato malvagiamente.
16 O Signore, secondo tutte le tue opere di giustizia, fa’, ti prego, che la tua ira e il tuo furore si ritraggano dalla tua città di Gerusalemme, il tuo monte santo; poiché per i nostri peccati e per le iniquità de’ nostri padri, Gerusalemme e il tuo popolo sono esposti al vituperio di tutti quelli che ci circondano.
17 Ora dunque, o Dio nostro, ascolta la preghiera del tuo servo e le sue supplicazioni, e fa’ risplendere il tuo volto sul tuo desolato santuario, per amor del Signore!
18 O mio Dio, inclina il tuo orecchio, ed ascolta; apri gli occhi e guarda le nostre desolazioni, e la città sulla quale è invocato il tuo nome; perché noi umilmente presentiamo le nostre supplicazioni nel tuo cospetto, fondati non sulle nostre opere giuste, ma sulle tue grandi compassioni.
19 O Signore, ascolta! Signore, perdona! Signore, sii attento ed agisci; non indugiare, per amor di te stesso, o mio Dio, perché il tuo nome è invocato sulla tua città e sul tuo popolo!"
