A Commentary, Critical, Practical, and Explanatory on the Old and New Testaments, by Robert Jamieson, A.R. Fausset and David Brown [1882] |
the last end of the indignation--God's displeasure against the Jews for their sins. For their comfort they are told, the calamities about to come are not to be for ever. The "time" is limited (Dan 9:27; Dan 11:27, Dan 11:35-36; Dan 12:7; Hab 2:3). |
Notes on the Bible, by Albert Barnes, [1834] |
And he said, Behold, I will make thee know what shall be in the last end of the indignation - In the future time when the Divine indignation shall be manifest toward the Hebrew people; to wit, by suffering the evils to come upon them which Antiochus would inflict. It is everywhere represented that these calamities would occur as a proof of the Divine displeasure on account of their sins. Compare Dan 9:24; Dan 11:35; 2 Macc. 7:33.
For at the time appointed the end shall be - It shall not always continue. There is a definite period marked out in the Divine purpose, and when that period shall arrive, the end of all this will take place. See the notes at Dan 8:17. |
The Scofield Bible Commentary, by Cyrus Ingerson Scofield, [1917] |
end
Two "ends" are in view here:
(1) historically, the end of the third, or Grecian empire of Alexander out of one of the divisions of which the little horn of verse 9 (Dan 8:9) (Antiochus) arose;
(2) prophetically, the end of the times of the Gentiles (Luk 21:24); (Rev 16:14) when the "little horn" of (Dan 7:8); (Dan 7:24-26) the Beast, will arise -- Daniel's final time of the end.
(See Scofield) - (Dan 12:4). |
