Daniel 11:45

Verse Daniel 11:45. He shalt plant the tabernacles] He shall make a last stand in Judea, and there shall his power be smitten.

He shall come to his end, and none shall help him] All his confederate and tributary kingdoms, states, and provinces shall desert him, and leave that government to come to a shameful end.

IN the interpretation of this chapter I have generally followed Bp. Newton, in his most excellent Dissertations on the Prophecies, consulting other eminent authors occasionally.

From the beginning of the chapter Daniel 11:1 to the end of Daniel 11:30 all is very clear and plain, relative to the Grecian, Syrian, and Egyptian histories; from the thirty-first verse to the end, Daniel 11:31-27 the mode of interpretation is not so satisfactory, in its application to the times since Christ. Yet possibly these alone may be intended; though the whole might be, with considerable ease, applied to the remaining part of the Syrian and Egyptian history. It is a wonderful piece of prophecy, and of great utility to the cause of Divine revelation.
