Jamieson-Fausset-Brown on Daniel 9:21

COM commentary-section · status:draft · license:PD

21. I had seen in the vision at the beginning —namely, in the former vision by the river Ulai ( Daniel 8:1 ; Daniel 8:16 ). fly swiftly —literally, "with weariness," that is, move swiftly as one breathless and wearied out with quick running [GESENIUS]. English Version is better ( Isaiah 6:2 ; Ezekiel 1:6 ; Revelation 14:6 ). time of . . . evening oblation —the ninth hour, three o'clock (compare Revelation 14:6- : ). As formerly, when the temple stood, this hour was devoted to sacrifices, so now to prayer. Daniel, during the whole captivity to the very last, with pious patriotism never forgot God's temple-worship, but speaks of its rites long abolished, as if still in use. return to ' Top of Page ' <a name="verse-22" class="com-number"
