Commentary Critical and Explanatory on the Whole Bible - Daniel 8:23

23. transgressors are come to the full—This does not hold good of the times of Antiochus, but of the closing times of the Christian era. Compare Luke 18:8; 2 Timothy 3:1-9, as to the wickedness of the world in general just before Christ's second coming. Israel's guilt, too, shall then be at the full, when they who rejected Christ shall receive Antichrist; fulfilling Jesus words, "I am come in My Father's name, and ye receive Me not; if another shall come in his own name, him ye will receive"... read more

24. not by his own power—which in the beginning was "little" (Daniel 8:9; Daniel 7:8); but by gaining over others through craft, the once little horn became "mighty" (compare Daniel 8:25; Daniel 11:23). To be fully realized by Antichrist. He shall act by the power of Satan, who shall then be permitted to work through him in unrestricted license, such as he has not now (Daniel 11:23- :); hence the ten kingdoms shall give the beast their power (2 Thessalonians 2:9-12; Revelation 17:13). prosper... read more

25. by peace—by pretending "peace" and friendship; in the midst of security [GESENIUS], suddenly striking his blow (compare Note, see on :-). "A spoiler at noon-day." also . . . against the Prince of princes—not merely against the Jews (Daniel 8:11; Daniel 11:36). broken without hand—by God's special visitation. The stone "cut out of the mountain without hands," that is, Christ is to smite the world power image on his feet (Daniel 2:34), that is, in its last development (compare Daniel 2:34-... read more

Almost all scholars recognize that Antiochus Epiphanes fulfilled what Gabriel predicted in these verses (cf. 1 Maccabees 1:10). [Note: Pentecost, "Daniel," p. 1359.] He arose in the latter period of the Diacochi, the four kingdoms that came into existence after Alexander’s death, following many transgressors of God’s will. Antiochus Epiphanes was bold and deceptive. He was powerful because God allowed him to be so. He did much damage, especially to Jerusalem and the temple. He became prosperous... read more

John Dummelow's Commentary on the Bible - Daniel 8:1-27

The Vision of the Ram and the He-GoatIn the third year of Belshazzar Daniel has a vision in which he seems to stand by the river Ulai, near Susa (Daniel 8:1-2). He sees a two-homed ram which behaves aggressively for a time (Daniel 8:3-4), but is attacked and overthrown by a he-goat which comes rapidly from the w, (Daniel 8:5-7). The he-goat has a notable horn (Daniel 8:5), which is presently broken, and instead of which four others come up (Daniel 8:8). From one of these there springs a little... read more

Ellicott's Commentary for English Readers - Daniel 8:23

(23) Transgressors . . .—When transgressors have filled up the measure of their guilt so as to exceed the limits of God’s mercy, then this event shall take place. The transgressors are the apostate Jews. Here, as in the other visions, the particulars respecting the most prominent objects of the vision are given more fully in the interpretation than in the early part of the chapter. The king is represented as being “of a fierce countenance,” he is shameless, he has no reluctance in pursuing the... read more

(24) Not by his own power.—Not might, but cunning, will cause his success. (Comp. 1MMalachi 1:10, &c.) Thus his destructive powers become astonishing.The mighty.—No special individuals are pointed out, but rulers in general. read more

(25) Through his policy.—This is explained more fully in the next two sentences. Through his craft he succeeds, and becomes able to destroy many unexpectedly, and finally raises up himself against God.Without hand.—Not by the hand of man (comp. Daniel 2:34), but by the act of God. read more

Daniel 8:2 In his Remarkable Passages of the Life and Death of Mr. John Semple, minister of Carsphairn in Galloway, Patrick Walker tells how 'that night after his wife died, he spent the whole ensuing night in prayer and meditation in his garden. The next morning, one of his elders coming to see him, and lamenting his great loss and want of rest, he replied: "I declare I have not, all night, had one thought of the death of my wife, I have been so taken up in meditating on heavenly things. I... read more
