Daniel 9:12 Meaning and Commentary

Daniel 9:12

And he hath confirmed his words which he spake against us
That is, he hath made good his threatenings of wrath and vengeance, in case of disobedience to his law: and against our judges that judged us;
kings, and inferior governors, that ruled over them, who perverted justice, and did not execute righteous judgment; and against them the Lord performed what he threatened: by bringing upon us a great evil;
the desolation of the whole land, the destruction of Jerusalem; the death of many by the sword, famine, and pestilence, and the captivity of the rest; all which was a great punishment considered in itself, but, when compared with their offences, was less than they deserved: for under the whole heaven hath not been done as hath been done upon
Jerusalem;
its walls broken down, its houses burnt with fire, even the palaces of the king and nobles, and the temple of the Lord itself; and all its inhabitants destroyed, dispersed, or carried captive; see ( Lamentations 1:12 ) ( Ezekiel 5:9 Ezekiel 5:10 ) .

Daniel 9:12 In-Context

10 Y no obedecimos á la voz de Jehová nuestro Dios, para andar en sus leyes, las cuales puso él delante de nosotros por mano de sus siervos los profetas.
11 Y todo Israel traspasó tu ley apartándose para no oir tu voz: por lo cual ha fluído sobre nosotros la maldición, y el juramento que está escrito en la ley de Moisés, siervo de Dios; porque contra él pecamos.
12 Y él ha verificado su palabra que habló sobre nosotros, y sobre nuestros jueces que nos gobernaron, trayendo sobre nosotros tan grande mal; que nunca fué hecho debajo del cielo como el que fué hecho en Jerusalem.
13 Según está escrito en la ley de Moisés, todo aqueste mal vino sobre nosotros: y no hemos rogado á la faz de Jehová nuestro Dios, para convertirnos de nuestras maldades, y entender tu verdad.
14 Veló por tanto Jehová sobre el mal, y trájolo sobre nosotros; porque justo es Jehová nuestro Dios en todas sus obras que hizo, porque no obedecimos á su voz.
