Daniel 11:7

11:7 “There will arise in his ¹  place one from her family line ²  who will come against their army and will enter the stronghold of the king of the north and will move against them successfully. ³ 

Daniel 11:10

11:10 His sons ⁴  will wage war, mustering a large army which will advance like an overflowing river and carrying the battle all the way to the enemy’s ⁵  fortress. ⁶ 

Daniel 11:13

11:13 For the king of the north will again muster an army, one larger than before. At the end of some years he will advance with a huge army and enormous supplies.

[11:7]  ¹ sn The reference is to the king of Egypt.

[11:7]  ² tn Heb “the stock of her roots.”

[11:7]  ³ tn Heb “will deal with them and prevail.”

[11:10]  ⁴ 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]  ⁵ tn Heb “his”; the referent (the enemy of the king of the north) has been specified in the translation for clarity.

[11:10]  ⁶ 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.
