Commentary Critical and Explanatory on the Whole Bible - Daniel 12:6
6. one—namely, of the two ( :-). man . . . in linen—who had spoken up to this point. God impelled the angel to ask in order to waken us out of our torpor, seeing that the very "angels desire to look into" the things affecting man's redemption ( :-), as setting forth the glory of their Lord and ours ( :-). How long . . . to the end of these wonders—This question of the angel refers to the final dealings of God in general, Antichrist's overthrow, and the resurrection. Daniel's question ( :-)... read more

Expository Notes of Dr. Thomas Constable - Daniel 12:5-6
The first question 12:5-6Daniel now saw two other individuals, undoubtedly angels, besides the one who had been addressing him since Daniel 10:11, standing on either side of the Tigris River (cf. Daniel 10:4). One of these angels asked a question of the man (Son of Man) dressed in linen (cf. Daniel 10:5-6) who was above the river. He wanted to know how long it would be until the end of the events just related (cf. 1 Peter 1:10-12), namely, the things having to do with Israel’s final persecution... read more

John Dummelow's Commentary on the Bible - Daniel 12:1-13
The Final VisionThese chs, form a connected whole, with three sub-divisions. Dan 10:1 to Dan 11:1 are introductory; Dan 11:2 to Dan 12:4 contain a detailed account of future events down to the 'time of the end.' This time is further defined in the concluding section, Daniel 12:5-13.(a) Introduction (Dan 10:1 to Dan 11:1)In the third year of Cyrus, after three weeks of mourning and fasting, Daniel has a vision by the river Hiddekel of a glorious angelic being (Dan 10:1-10), who addresses him in... read more

Ellicott's Commentary for English Readers - Daniel 12:6
(6) And one said.—The speaker is evidently one of the persons just mentioned, but the LXX. and St. Jerome suppose Daniel to address the man clothed in white linen, who is obviously the same person who has already spoken (Daniel 10:5, &c.). The position which he occupies is striking. He appears “upon” or (see margin) from above, i.e., hovering over the waters of the Tigris. If, as is frequently the case in the symbolical language of Scripture (see Isaiah 8:6-7, Psalms 93:4), waters or... read more

Expositor's Dictionary of Texts - Daniel 12:1-13
Daniel 12:3 I do believe the station of a popular preacher is one of the greatest trials on earth: a man in that position does not stop to soberly calculate how much, or rather how little is done when there appears a great effect, nor to consider how immense is the difference between deeply affecting the feelings and permanently changing the heart. The preacher who causes a great sensation and excited feelings is not necessarily the one who will receive the reward of shining as the stars for... read more

Expositor's Bible Commentary - Daniel 12:1-13
THE EPILOGUE(Daniel 12:1-13)THE twelfth chapter of the Book of Daniel serves as a general epilogue to the Book, and is as little free from difficulties in the interpretation of the details as are the other apocalyptic chapters.The keynote, however, to their right understanding must be given in the words "At that time," with which the first verse opens. The words can only mean "the time" spoken of at the end of the last chapter, the days of that final effort of Antiochus against the holy people... read more

Arno Gaebelein's Annotated Bible - Daniel 12:1-13
CHAPTER 12 The Great Tribulation and Israel’s Deliverance “ And at that time.” What time? The time of the end, the time of trouble such as never was before; the same time to which our Lord refers in Matthew 24:21 . Michael, the great prince which standeth for the Jewish people, is now also mentioned again. He will stand up and take a leading part in the events of that time. From the book of Revelation we learn (chapter 12) that there will be war in heaven, that is where Satan has his dominion... read more
