Daniel 8:22
Konteks8:22 The horn that was broken 1 and in whose place there arose four others stands for four kingdoms that will arise from his nation, though they will not have his strength.
Daniel 11:15
Konteks11:15 Then the king of the north will advance and will build siege mounds and capture a well-fortified city. 2 The forces of the south will not prevail, not even his finest contingents. 3 They will have no strength to prevail.
[8:22] 1 tn Heb “the broken one.” The word “horn” has been supplied in the translation to clarify the referent.
[11:15] 2 sn This well-fortified city is apparently Sidon. Its capture from the Ptolemies by Antiochus the Great was a strategic victory for the Seleucid kingdom.
[11:15] 3 tn Or “choice troops” (BDB 104 s.v. מִבְחָר), or “elite troops” (HALOT 542 s.v. מִבְחָר).
