The Northern King’s Conquests

40 “At the atime of the end the king of the South shall attack him; and the king of the North shall come against him blike a whirlwind, with chariots, chorsemen, and with many ships; and he shall enter the countries, overwhelm them, and pass through.  
41 He shall also enter the Glorious Land, and many countries shall be overthrown; but these shall escape from his hand: aEdom, Moab, and the prominent people of Ammon.  
42 He shall stretch out his hand against the countries, and the land of aEgypt shall not escape.  
43 He shall have power over the treasures of gold and silver, and over all the precious things of Egypt; also the Libyans and Ethiopians shall follow aat his heels.  
44 But news from the east and the north shall trouble him; therefore he shall go out with great fury to destroy and annihilate many.

Daniel 11:41

Antiochus, according to PORPHYRY, marching against Ptolemy, though he turned from his course to wreak his wrath on the Jews, did not meddle with Edom, Moab, and Ammon on the side of Judea. In 1 Maccabees 4:61; 5:3; etc., it is stated that he used their help in crushing the Jews, of whom they were the ancient enemies. Compare Isaiah 11:14, as to Israel's future retribution, just as the Maccabees made war on them as the friends of Antiochus (1 Maccabees 5:1-68). Antitypically, the Turks under Selim entered Jerusalem on their way to Egypt, and retain "the glorious land" of Palestine to this day. But they never could conquer the Arabs, who are akin to Edom, Moab, and Ammon (Genesis 16:12). So in the case of the final Antichrist.
