[11:28]  1 tn Heb “he”; the referent (the king of the north) has been specified in the translation for clarity.

[11:18]  2 tn Heb “his face.” See v. 19 as well.

[11:18]  3 sn The commander is probably the Roman commander, Lucius Cornelius Scipio.

[11:18]  4 tn The Hebrew here is difficult in that the negative בִּלְתִּי (biltiy, “not”) is used in an unusual way. The sense is not entirely clear.

[11:18]  5 tn Heb “his shameful conduct he will return to him.”

[11:30]  3 sn The name Kittim has various designations in extra-biblical literature. It can refer to a location on the island of Cyprus, or more generally to the island itself, or it can be an inclusive term to refer to parts of the Mediterranean world that lay west of the Middle East (e.g., Rome). For ships of Kittim the Greek OT (LXX) has “Romans,” an interpretation followed by a few English versions (e.g., TEV). A number of times in the Dead Sea Scrolls the word is used in reference to the Romans. Other English versions are more generic: “[ships] of the western coastlands” (NIV, NLT); “from the west” (NCV, CEV).

[11:30]  4 sn This is apparently a reference to the Roman forces, led by Gaius Popilius Laenas, which confronted Antiochus when he came to Egypt and demanded that he withdraw or face the wrath of Rome. Antiochus wisely withdrew from Egypt, albeit in a state of bitter frustration.

[11:30]  5 tn Heb “show regard for.”

[11:9]  4 tn Heb “he”; the referent (the king of the north) has been specified in the translation for clarity.

[9:25]  5 tn Or “decree” (NASB, NIV); or “word” (NAB, NRSV).

[9:25]  6 map For location see Map5 B1; Map6 F3; Map7 E2; Map8 F2; Map10 B3; JP1 F4; JP2 F4; JP3 F4; JP4 F4.

[9:25]  7 tn The word “arrives” is added in the translation for clarification.

[9:25]  8 tn Heb “sevens” (also later in this line and in v. 26).

[9:25]  9 tn Heb “it will return and be built.” The expression is a verbal hendiadys.

[10:20]  6 sn The question is rhetorical, intended to encourage reflection on Daniel’s part.

[11:10]  7 sn The sons of Seleucus II Callinicus were Seleucus III Ceraunus (ca. 227-223 B.C.) and Antiochus III the Great (ca. 223-187 B.C.).

[11:10]  8 tn Heb “his”; the referent (the enemy of the king of the north) has been specified in the translation for clarity.

[11:10]  9 tn Heb “and he will certainly come and overflow and cross over and return and be aroused unto a fortress.” The translation has attempted to simplify the syntax of this difficult sequence.

[9:13]  8 tn Heb “we have not pacified the face of.”

[9:13]  9 tn Or “by gaining insight.”

[9:13]  10 tn Heb “by your truth.” The Hebrew term does not refer here to abstract truth, however, but to the reliable moral guidance found in the covenant law. See vv 10-11.

[9:16]  9 tn Or “righteousness.”

[9:16]  10 tn Heb “your anger and your rage.” The synonyms are joined here to emphasize the degree of God’s anger. This is best expressed in English by making one of the terms adjectival (cf. NLT “your furious anger”; CEV “terribly angry”).
