Daniel's End-Time Vision
DANIEL'S VISION OF THE END-TIME
ANTICHRIST & TRIBULATION
Daniel refers to the vision of Daniel 10:1-6 as the
"great vision" (10:8). The account of the vision and the angel's
interpretation of the vision extend from 10:1 into the 12th chapter of the book
of Daniel.
The "certain man" of the "great vision" is
revealed in the Angel's interpretation to be the "vile person" (11:21),
who dominates in the Tribulation period.
The fact that the vision refers to the future period
of Tribulation is indicated by Daniel 10:1 ("the time appointed was long"); the
Angel's words in Daniel 10:14 ("Now I am
come to make thee understand what shall befall thy people in the latter
days: for yet the
vision is for many days;" and in Daniel
12:1:
"And at that time shall Michael stand up, the great
prince which standeth for the children of thy people: and there shall be a
time of trouble, such as never was since there was a nation even to that
same time: and at that time thy people shall be delivered, every one
that shall be found written in the book."
This corresponds to Jeremiah 30:7, "the time of Jacob's trouble," the Tribulation
period.
