Daniel 12:2-3

Sutcliffe's Commentary on the Old and New Testaments - Daniel 12:1-13

Daniel 12:1 . At that time shall Michael stand up, the great prince. In the time of Antiochus, Michael the archangel did nothing for the Jews, but leave them in Roman bondage. Therefore under this name we must look for a higher prince than any created angel; even for Messiah the Prince of peace, who is as God, or one with God in the church. His title, as prince and potentate, is expressive of his sovereignty. He comes and stands up for the Israel of God, as captain of “Jehovah’s hosts.”... read more

Daniel 12:1-13And at that time shall Michael stand up.The Great ConsummationIt is a little unfortunate that this chapter has been severed from what immediately precedes it. Here we learn: 1. That the time of the Antichrist will be a time of unexampled distress. The trouble will be more or less upon all people then living upon the earth. 2. The time of the Antichrist is the time when Michael, the great prince over the Children of the prophet’s people, shall stand up in their behalf. Some think... read more

Daniel 12:2Some to everlasting life, and some to shame.Unto Life or Death--Which?Death is not annihilation; the grave is not the end of man. Two facts are indisputable among those who receive the Scriptures. 1. The fact of a general resurrection anterior to the Judgment Day. 2. The righteous will be raised to life eternal; the wicked to “damnation.” The point in the lesson we would enforce--and it is a tremendous point in the matter of personal interest--is embraced in one word “which?” One or... read more

Daniel 12:3And they that be wise.Shining as the StarsThe word prudent or wise means endued with intellect. Some take it transitively, and in this passage their opinion is probably correct, because the office of justifying will soon be assigned to these prudent ones. It is better, however, to take it as meaning those who are endued with understanding. The angel says that the “teachers,” or those who excel in understanding, “shall shine forth as the light of Heaven.” The angel contrasts the... read more

John Trapp Complete Commentary - Daniel 12:2

Dan 12:2 And many of them that sleep in the dust of the earth shall awake, some to everlasting life, and some to shame [and] everlasting contempt. Ver. 2. And many of them that sleep in the dust. ] "Many" for all; as Rom 5:18-19 these are said to sleep, which denoteth the immortality of the soul and the resurrection of the body. (The soul liveth in the sleep of death, as it doth in the sleep of the body in this life). And this the poor Jews, when to lose land and life for the truth, are here... read more

And they that be wise. ] And in addition do what they can do to wisen others to salvation, as all wise ones will; for goodness is diffusive of itself, and would have others to share with it. Charity is no churl. Shall shine as the brightness of the firmament. ] A good amends for their present sufferings. Dan 11:33 Rom 8:18 Solomon... read more

Whedon's Commentary on the Bible - Daniel 12:2

2. Contempt Rather, abhorrence. Many The idea is that of multitudinousness. It neither asserts nor excludes the thought that all shall rise (Thomson). It was left for him who could say, “I am the Resurrection and the Life,” to make the clear, full, and final revelation of the general and universal resurrection. This is one of the most astonishing verses in Daniel. As Behrmann says, we have here the “very last word” on Old Testament eschatology. What may be hinted in Isaiah 26:14; Isaiah... read more

3. They that be wise See Daniel 11:33, and compare Hosea 14:9. In Hosea’s day this was a “new and beautiful doctrine” that the wise could know the ways of the Lord and walk in them. (See particularly Alexander Duff, Old Testament Theology.) We now have the equally new and beautiful doctrine that those who are thus wise shall live forever as heavenly lights. The figure of speech which would compare a wise teacher to a light was not unknown even in ancient Babylon; for on a tablet dating... read more
