Daniel 8:11

Yea, he magnified [himself] even to the prince of the host, and by him the daily [sacrifice] was taken away, and the place of his sanctuary was cast down.

Ver. 11. Yea, he magnified himself.] He extolled or extended himself, such was his insolence.

Even to (or against) the prince of the host.] Christ, the captain of his people's sufferings, and of their salvation. Heb 2:10 He bare a hostile spirit against the God of the Jews - such a hell hound hardly ever was born - casting him out of his place, and setting up in his room Jupiter Olympus - that is, the devil; he defaced also and burned up the books of the law, all he could light on. 1Ma 1:54-59
