Daniel 11:7

1 tn January 7, 587 b.c.

Daniel 11:8

2 tn Heb “set your face against.”

Daniel 11:9

3 tn Or “I challenge you.” The phrase “I am against you” may be a formula for challenging someone to combat or a duel. See D. I. Block, Ezekiel (NICOT), 1:201-2, and P. Humbert, “Die Herausforderungsformel ‘h!nn#n’ ?l?K>,’” ZAW 45 (1933): 101-8.

4 tn Heb “jackals,” but many medieval Hebrew mss read correctly “the serpent.” The Hebrew term appears to refer to a serpent in Exodus 7:9-10, 12; Deuteronomy 32:33; and Psalms 91:13. It also refers to large creatures that inhabit the sea (Genesis 1:21; Psalms 148:7). In several passages it is associated with the sea or with the multiheaded sea monster Leviathan (Job 7:12; Psalms 74:13; Isaiah 27:1; 51:9). Because of the Egyptian setting of this prophecy and the reference to the creature’s scales (v. 4), many understand a crocodile to be the referent here (e.g., NCV “a great crocodile”; TEV “you monster crocodile”; CEV “a giant crocodile”).

5 sn In Egyptian theology Pharaoh owned and controlled the Nile. See J. D. Currid, Ancient Egypt and the Old Testament, 240-44.

1 tn Heb “Alas for the day.”

Daniel 11:31

2 tn Heb “a day of clouds.” The expression occurs also in Joel 2:2 and Zephaniah 1:15; it recalls the appearance of God at Mount Sinai (Exodus 19:9, 16, 18).

3 tn Heb “a time.” The words “of judgment” have been added in the translation for clarification (see the following verses).
