John Gills Exposition of the Bible Commentary - Daniel 11:41

He shall enter also into the glorious land ,.... The land of Israel, as the Syriac version expresses it; or the land of Judea, which the Turk entered into, and got possession of, and still retains, notwithstanding all the attempts made by the European princes to get it out of his hand: and many countries shall be overthrown ; of which the eastern empire listed as Bithynia, Mysia, Lycaonia, Phrygia, and Carlo, and to the Hellesport and the Euxine sea, conquered by Ottoman and his son... read more

John Gills Exposition of the Bible Commentary - Daniel 11:42

He shall stretch forth his hand also upon the countries ,.... Before mentioned, and take possession of them and rule over them, as the Turk does to this day: and the land of Egypt shall not escape ; the hands of the Turk by whom it was taken from the Mamalucs; and is now a province of the Turkish empire, and governed by a Turkish basha, with twenty four princes under him F1 Ibid. (See Dr. Newton's Dissertations on the Prophecies) p. 394. . This was not true of Antiochus, who, after... read more

John Gills Exposition of the Bible Commentary - Daniel 11:43

But he shall have power over the treasures of gold and silver, and over all the precious things of Egypt ,.... The land of Egypt, as it is a very large, so a very rich country, abounding with gold, silver, and precious things; all which came into the hands of the Turk along with it; for when Selim, the ninth emperor of the Turks, conquered the Mamalucs he caused five hundred of the chiefest Egyptian families to be transported to Constantinople; as likewise a great number of Mamalucs' wives... read more

John Gills Exposition of the Bible Commentary - Daniel 11:44

But tidings out of the east and out of the north shall trouble him ,.... This and the following verse respect times and things yet to come, and the interpretation of them is not so certain: perhaps this clause may have a regard to the news brought to the Turk, of the Jews, upon their conversion, being about to return to their own land, from the eastern and northern parts of the world, where they chiefly are at this day; which will greatly alarm him, since their land is part of his dominions:... read more

And he shall plant the tabernacles of his palace ,.... Or "pavilion" F3 אפדנו "praetorii sui", Vatablus. So Aquila in Drusius. ; the tents for his princes and generals that come with him; which shall be placed about his own, and where he will think himself safe and secure, and sure of victory. Symmachus renders the words, "the tents of his cavalry" F4 τας σκηνας του ιπποστασιου αυτου , Symm.; "papiliones equitatus sui", interpr. Hieronymo; " vel potius tentoria equilis sui, ... read more

Adam Clarke's Commentary on the Bible - Daniel 11:32

Such as do wickedly against the covenant - This if understood of the Christian Jews, for the New had now succeeded to the Old, the whole of the Jewish ritual having been abolished, and Jerusalem filled with heathen temples. And he - the Roman power, did all he could by flatteries, as well as threats, to corrupt the Christians, and cause them to sacrifice to the statues of the emperors. But the people that do know their God - The genuine Christians. Shall be strong - Shall be... read more

Adam Clarke's Commentary on the Bible - Daniel 11:33

And they that understand - The apostles and primitive Christians in general, who understood from the prophets, and his own actions, that Jesus was the true Messiah. Instruct many - Preach the Gospel every where, and convert multitudes to the faith. Yet they shall fall by the sword, and by flame, by captivity, and by spoil, many days - They were exposed to the malice and fury of their enemies, during Ten State Persecutions, and suffered all kinds of tortures, with but little... read more

Adam Clarke's Commentary on the Bible - Daniel 11:34

Now when they shall fall - When the storm of the tenth persecution under Diocletian, which lasted ten years, fell upon them, they were sorely oppressed. They shall be holpen with a little help - By Constantine; who, while he removed all persecution, and promoted the temporal prosperity of the Christian Church, yet added little to its spiritual perfection and strength. For many, now seeing the Christians in prosperity: - Cleave to them with flatteries - Became Christians Because the... read more

Adam Clarke's Commentary on the Bible - Daniel 11:35

And some of them of understanding - Disputes on certain points of religion soon agitated the Christian Church; and now, having no outward persecution, they began to persecute each other. And many excellent men, men of understanding, fell victims because they would not embrace erroneous doctrines, when professed by the state. But this was permitted: - To try them, and to purge, and to make them white - To bring all to the pure profession, possession, and practice of Christianity. To... read more

Adam Clarke's Commentary on the Bible - Daniel 11:36

And the king shall do according to his will - This may apply to Antiochus, who exalted himself above every god, called himself a god, sported with all religion, profaned the temple, etc., etc. But others think an antichristian power in the Church is intended; for in the language of this prophecy king is taken for power, a kingdom, etc. That such a power did spring up in the Church that acted in an arbitrary manner against all laws, human and Divine, is well known. This power showed itself in... read more
