Daniel 11:2 - Forerunner Commentary

Daniel 11:2

1 “Also ^ain the first year of ^bDarius the Mede, I, even I, stood up to confirm and strengthen him.)

2 And now I will tell you the truth: Behold, three more kings will arise in Persia, and the fourth shall be far richer than them all; by his strength, through his riches, he shall stir up all against the realm of Greece.

3 Then ^aa mighty king shall arise, who shall rule with great dominion, and ^bdo according to his will.

4 And when he has arisen, ^ahis kingdom shall be broken up and divided toward the four winds of heaven, but not among his posterity ^bnor according to his dominion with which he ruled; for his kingdom shall be uprooted, even for others besides these.

Warring Kings of North and South

5 “Also the king of the South shall become strong, as well as one of his princes; and he shall gain power over him and have dominion. His dominion shall be a great dominion.

6 And at the end of some years they shall join forces, for the daughter of the king of the South shall go to the king of the North to make an agreement; but she shall not retain the power of her¹ authority, and neither he nor his² authority shall stand; but she shall be given up, with those who brought her, and with him who begot her, and with him who strengthened her in those times.
