Daniel 8:15-19

Joseph Benson's Commentary of the Old and New Testaments - Daniel 8:17

Daniel 8:17. So he came near where I stood That he might speak more familiarly with him.

And I fell upon my face Not to worship the angel, but because he could not bear the lustre of his glory. But he said unto me, Understand, O son of man We find this is a title given to none of the prophets but Ezekiel and... read more

But he touched me, and set me upright By only a touch of him my strength revived, and I came to myself.

Bridgeway Bible Commentary - Daniel 8:15-27

Gabriel explains the vision (8:15-27)An interpreting angel named Gabriel then set out to explain to the frightened Daniel the meaning of the vision of the ram and the goat (15-18). It was chiefly concerned with the climax of the Jews’ troubles, when God would intervene in mighty judgment against Antiochus (19). But first the Medo-Persian and Greek Empires had to be established (20-22). Cruel, cunning, arrogant and powerful, Antiochus would slaughter the Jews, defile the temple and blaspheme... read more

Coffman Commentaries on the Bible - Daniel 8:15

"And it came to pass when I, even I, Daniel, had seen the vision, that I sought to understand it; and, behold, there stood before me as the appearance of a man. And I heard a man's voice between the banks of the Ulai, which called and said, Gabriel, make this man to understand the vision. So he came near where I stood; and when he came, I was affrighted, and fell upon my face: but he said unto me, Understand, O son of man; for the vision belongeth to the time of the end. Now as he was speaking... read more
