Expository Notes of Dr. Thomas Constable - Daniel 10:1

1. Daniel’s preparation to receive the vision 10:1-11:1This section can be divided into seven parts.The background of the vision 10:1The third year of Cyrus’ rule as king over Babylon was 536 B.C. Cyrus had begun ruling over Persia in 558 B.C., but Daniel’s and the other biblical writers’ interest in Cyrus was as ruler over Babylon, which he conquered in 539 B.C. (Daniel 5:31). Cyrus had issued his decree allowing the Jews to return to their land and to rebuild their temple in 538 B.C. Some of... read more

Expository Notes of Dr. Thomas Constable - Daniel 10:2-3

Daniel’s personal preparations 10:2-3The vision in chapter 9 came after Daniel had been praying and fasting (Daniel 9:3). The vision that follows also came to him after he had been mourning, fasting, and undoubtedly praying, for three weeks (cf. Daniel 1:11-13). Obviously these were literal weeks of days. Evidently, the previous revelations from God, and the welfare of the Jews-who had returned to Palestine but were encountering opposition, were the reasons for Daniel’s grave concern (cf. Ezra... read more

Expository Notes of Dr. Thomas Constable - Daniel 10:4

Daniel had gone to the Tigris (Hiddekel, AV) River, perhaps to pray for the exiles who had returned, and he had probably gone there with other godly Jews. Passover and the Feast of Unleavened Bread fell on the fourteenth through the twenty-first days of the first month. The Jews did not observe these festivals in captivity as they had formerly in their own land. Three days after these important memorial days, God gave Daniel a vision that he alone saw (cf. Daniel 12:5). read more

Expository Notes of Dr. Thomas Constable - Daniel 10:5-6

The man whom Daniel saw in this vision was probably the Son of God. [Note: Keil, p. 409; Young, p. 225; Walvoord, Daniel . . ., p. 243; Feinberg, p. 141; Whitcomb, p. 138; Campbell, p. 118; Merrill, "A Theology . . .," p. 388; Wiersbe, p. 297; Culver, "Daniel," p. 796.] The Jewish interpreters and some modern Christian scholars preferred the view that he was an angel. [Note: E.g., Leupold, pp. 447-48; Archer, "Daniel," p. 123; Pentecost, "Daniel," pp. 1365-66; Baldwin, p. 180; and Ironside, p.... read more

Expository Notes of Dr. Thomas Constable - Daniel 10:7-9

Daniel’s companions, sensing that something awesome was happening (cf. Acts 9:7; Acts 22:9), hid themselves while Daniel viewed what God showed him (Daniel 10:7). His personal reaction to this vision was also similar to the Apostle John’s (Daniel 10:8; cf. Daniel 8:27; Revelation 1:17). The words of the person Daniel saw, along with his glorious appearance, caused the prophet to faint (Daniel 10:9). read more

Expository Notes of Dr. Thomas Constable - Daniel 10:10-11

The "man" who touched Daniel and who proceeded to speak to him may have been the same one the prophet saw in the vision (Daniel 10:5-6). Walvoord held, correctly I think, that the person in Daniel 10:5-6 was God, but the person in Daniel 10:10-21 was an angel. [Note: Ibid., pp. 243, 245.] The angel described Daniel as a man of high esteem (cf. Daniel 9:23; Daniel 10:19). We know that Daniel enjoyed a good reputation among his contemporaries, but this title probably reflects God’s estimate of... read more
