Notes

Daniel 10:5–6

The man in linen clothing is an unknown messenger of the Lord (compare Daniel 10:16, 18; 12:6–7; see also Ezekiel 9:3).

Daniel 10:1–12:13

This final vision spans from 536 BC to a future when Daniel will rise from the dead and receive his inheritance. All earthly kingdoms will be destroyed. The eternal kingdom of the Son of Man will arise. God's people will finally be rescued, and death, the ultimate enemy, will be defeated.
