Notes

Daniel 12:2

Everlasting life is entirely free from shame or disgrace (compare Genesis 2:25; 3:7).

Daniel 12:1–7

In the end times, God will save his people and defeat all enemies, including death.

Daniel 11:2–12:7

The messenger shared a broad overview of history. It started with Persia, continued through the fall of Greece, and covered the rise and fall of a wicked king or several kings (Daniel 11:21–45). It concluded with the final resurrection and victory of God's people.

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.
