Context — The Vision of Danielgenerated

18While he was speaking with me, I fell into a deep sleep, with my face to the ground. Then he touched me, helped me to my feet,
19and said, “Behold, I will make known to you what will happen in the latter time of wrath, because it concerns the appointed time of the end.
20The two-horned ram that you saw represents the kings of Media and Persia.
21The shaggy goat represents the king of Greece, and the large horn between his eyes is the first king.

Daniel 8:19 describes a moment when an angel speaks to Daniel, revealing significant events that will occur in the future, specifically during a time marked by divine wrath. This passage emphasizes the certainty of what is to come and connects to the broader themes of prophecy and divine judgment found throughout the book of Daniel.

The Key Word מוֹדִֽיעֲךָ֔, mo.di.'a.Khagenerated

The word מוֹדִֽיעֲךָ֔ (mo.di.'a.Kha) comes from the root יָדַע (yada`), which means 'to know.' In this context, it indicates the act of making something known or revealing information. The parsing as a Hiphil participle shows that the subject is actively causing knowledge to be imparted.

This term is significant as it conveys the idea of divine revelation, where the angel is tasked with disclosing future events to Daniel. It highlights the role of the messenger in communicating God's plans.


How Translations Differ — measured against the Berean Standard Biblegenerated

Sentence Structuregenerated

The verse is structured around the finite verb יֹּ֨אמֶר֙ (he said), which governs the entire statement. The main clause is followed by a participial phrase that introduces the subject of the revelation.

The Hebrew word order places emphasis on the act of speaking and the subsequent revelation, highlighting the importance of the message being conveyed.


Septuagint Backgroundgenerated

In the Septuagint, the Hebrew verb מוֹדִֽיעֲךָ֔ is rendered with the Greek σοι (soi), meaning 'to you.' This choice narrows the focus of the revelation directly to Daniel, emphasizing the personal nature of the message.

This translation choice indicates a direct communication from the angel to Daniel, reinforcing the significance of the prophecy being made known to him.

The Hebrew word אֲשֶׁר (*asher*) is a relative pronoun that can mean 'who,' 'which,' or 'that.' It serves various grammatical functions, including as an adverb or conjunction, indicating relationships between clauses, places, or conditions. Variants like בַאֲשֶׁר (*ba-asher*), מֵאֲשֶׁר (*me-asher*), and כַּאֲשֶׁר (*ka-asher*) expand its usage to specific contexts such as location, causation, and time.

In the Norman period, however, "of" was taken to represent the French de (a use well developed by the time of Chaucer), and in the Elizabethan period both senses of "of" were in common use. But after about 1600 the later force of the word became predominant, and in the earlier sense (which is now practically obsolete) it was replaced by other prepositions.

qets, 'ephec, kalah; telos, sunteleo:

The end of anything is its termination, hence, also, final object or purpose.

It is the translation of several Hebrew and Greek words, chiefly in the Old Testament of qets (properly, "a cutting off") and other words from the same root (Ge 6:13, "The end of all flesh is come before me"); 'acharith, "hinder part," is also frequently translated "end" (De 11:12; Ps 37:37,38, American Revised Version: "There is a happy end to the man of peace .... The end of the wicked shall be cut off"; the English Revised Version "latter end" (Ps 37:37), margin "reward" or "future posterity"; Ps 73:17

Easton's Bible Dictionary

End

In Heb. 13:7, is the rendering of the unusual Greek word ekbasin, meaning “outcome”, i.e., death. It occurs only elsewhere in 1 Cor. 10:13, where it is rendered “escape.”
