Context — Kings of the South and North
30Ships of Kittim will come against him, and he will lose heart. Then he will turn back and rage against the holy covenant and do damage. So he will return and show favor to those who forsake the holy covenant.
31His forces will rise up and desecrate the temple fortress. They will abolish the daily sacrifice and set up the abomination of desolation.
32With flattery he will corrupt those who violate the covenant, but the people who know their God will firmly resist him.
33Those with insight will instruct many, though for a time they will fall by sword or flame, or be captured or plundered. 34Now when they fall, they will be granted a little help, but many will join them insincerely.Cross References

Daniel 11:32 Summary
This verse is saying that the enemy will try to deceive and corrupt people by using flattery, but those who truly know and love God will be able to resist his tactics. It's like when someone is trying to convince you to do something that you know is wrong, but you stand firm because you know what is right. As it says in Psalm 119:11, 'I have hidden your word in my heart that I might not sin against you', and in 1 Corinthians 10:13, 'God is faithful; he will not let you be tempted beyond what you can bear'. We can trust in God's power and promises to help us stand firm against the enemy's attacks.

Matthew Poole's Commentary on Daniel 11:32
By gifts, preferments, and promises he drew away great multitudes of this wretched people of Judea, always bent to backsliding, to his idolatrous and heathenish practices and interest: but they that adhere to the true worship of God, and are zealous for it, shall scorn Antiochus’ s gifts, and abhor his ways, and defy his force, not loving their lives to the death; as you have many instances, /APC ,63; /APC 2Mac 5$ 6$ 7$ 8$; and also how Judas Maccabeus and his few followers did exploits against Nicanor and others.
Trapp's Commentary on Daniel 11:32
Daniel 11:32 And such as do wickedly against the covenant shall he corrupt by flatteries: but the people that do know their God shall be strong, and do [exploits].Ver. 32. And such as do wickedly against the covenant.] Apostates sin not common sins, as Korah and his complices died not common deaths. Forsakers of the covenant will soon become wicked doers against the covenant, as here, till they become altogether filthy. “ - non debet aratro, Dignum opus exercens, vultum in sua terga referre. ” - Sedulius. But the people that do know their God.] The faithful Hassideans and zealots, who know and worship their God aright, these shall persevere, and overcome all allurements and fears of the world; Irritamenta et terriculamenta.
Ellicott's Commentary on Daniel 11:32
(32) Such as do wickedly.—In these verses are traced the effects of the apostasy upon the people of God. These persons have been already spoken of in Daniel 11:30. They had begun with indifference to true religion, they have now become intolerant of it. Corrupt.—Literally, make profane. On the Hebrew notion of profanity, see Cheyne’s Isaiah, vol. 1, p. 3. These persons have now become as the heathen. (See 1Ma 2:17-18.) But the people. . . .—While the large mass of people becomes obedient to the persecutor, there is a party of true believers remaining, who are “strong,” or rather, confirm the covenant, and “do,” i.e., succeed in their attempt. That such a party existed in the time of Antiochus Epiphanes appears from 1Ma 1:62, &c., 1Ma 2:3, &c. Similarly in all times of persecution there will be a remnant, though it may be very small. which will remain firm to their covenant with God. (Comp. 1 Kings 19:18.)
Adam Clarke's Commentary on Daniel 11:32
Verse 32. Such as do wickedly against the covenant] This if understood of the Christian Jews; for the NEW had now succeeded to the OLD, the whole of the Jewish ritual having been abolished, and Jerusalem filled with heathen temples. And he-the Roman power, did all he could by flatteries, as well as threats, to corrupt the Christians, and cause them to sacrifice to the statues of the emperors. But the people that do know their God] The genuine Christians. Shall be strong] Shall be strengthened by his grace and Spirit. And do exploits.] Continue steadfast in all temptations, hold fast their faith, and enjoy a good conscience.
Cambridge Bible on Daniel 11:32
32. And such as do wickedly (Daniel 9:5, Daniel 12:10) against the covenant] the disloyal Jews. shall he make profane (Jeremiah 23:11)] by abetting them in their designs, he will lead them from bad to worse. In Syr. the root here used acquired the special sense of gentile (e.g. Matthew 6:7; Matthew 18:17, Pesh.), apostate, and represents, for instance, Hellenic, Greek (2Ma 4:10; 2Ma 11:24, Pesh.); and possibly the word may have the definite sense of make apostates here (cf. R.V. pervert). by flatteries] by specious representations, or promises, pointing out for example the advantages that would accrue to those who renounced their Judaism. Cf. the promises held out (1Ma 2:18) to Mattathias (‘thou and thy house shall be in the number of the king’s friends, and thou and thy sons shall be honoured with silver and gold and many gifts’). Mattathias turned a deaf ear to such inducements; but the prospect of Antiochus’ favour might easily influence men who were less staunch in their convictions. but the people that do know their God shall shew strength] i.e. exhibit firmness, constancy (cf. Deuteronomy 12:23 ‘be strong, firm, not to eat the blood’; Joshua 1:7; 1 Chronicles 28:7), neither to yield to temptation nor to desert their religion for fear of the consequences. The decree of Antiochus led to numerous martyrdoms, many of the loyal Israelites submitting to death, even with torture, rather than renounce their faith. Cf. 1Ma 1:62 f. ‘And many in Israel were strong (i.e. firm: the Greek word used stands for ηζχ in 1 Samuel 30:6; Ezra 10:4, and elsewhere), and were fortified (like a strong city,—ὀχυρώθησαν) in themselves, not to eat unclean things (κοινά).
And they chose to die, that they might not be defiled with the meats, nor profane the holy covenant; and they died.’ and do] they also will do, or act, in the pregnant sense of the word (cf. on Daniel 8:12), in their cause, not less than the ambitious heathen king (Daniel 8:12; Daniel 8:24, Daniel 11:28; Daniel 11:30) in his.
Barnes' Notes on Daniel 11:32
And such as do wickedly against the covenant - That is, among the Jews. They who apostatized, and who became willing to receive the religion of foreigners. There “was” such a party in Jerusalem, and it was numerous.
Whedon's Commentary on Daniel 11:32
32. Corrupt — Rather, pervert, that is, “make profane.” The Books of the Maccabees contain the mention of many of the wiles and bribes by which he induced multitudes of Jews to become renegades.
