Notes

Daniel 10:7–9

Daniel reacted like most people do when they see heavenly beings (compare Joshua 5:14; Isaiah 6:5; Acts 9:7–9; Revelation 1:17).

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.
