Daniel 12
1. Michael shall deliver Israel from their troubles.
5. Daniel is informed of the times.














Blessed is he
The word "blessed" in Hebrew is "אַשְׁרֵי" (ashrei), which conveys a sense of happiness, fortune, and divine favor. In the context of Daniel, this blessing is not merely a temporary or earthly happiness but a profound spiritual state of being favored by God. This echoes the Beatitudes in the New Testament, where Jesus pronounces blessings on those who embody certain spiritual qualities. The blessing here is a promise of divine reward for endurance and faithfulness.

who waits
The Hebrew root for "waits" is "חָכָה" (chakah), which implies a patient, hopeful anticipation. This waiting is not passive but active, involving trust and perseverance. In the biblical narrative, waiting often involves enduring trials and maintaining faith in God's promises. This concept is seen throughout Scripture, such as in Isaiah 40:31, where those who wait on the Lord renew their strength. The waiting here is a test of faith, a call to remain steadfast amidst adversity.

and reaches
The phrase "and reaches" suggests arriving at a destination or goal. In the Hebrew context, it implies successfully enduring a period of trial or tribulation. This reaching is not just about surviving but about achieving a state of readiness and fulfillment of God's plan. It reflects the journey of faith, where believers are called to press on toward the goal, as Paul describes in Philippians 3:14.

the end of the 1,335 days
The "1,335 days" is a specific prophetic period that has intrigued scholars and theologians. In the context of Daniel, these days are part of a larger prophetic timeline concerning the end times. Historically, this period has been interpreted in various ways, often linked to the tribulation and the ultimate deliverance of God's people. The specificity of the number suggests a divinely appointed time, emphasizing God's sovereignty over history. Theologically, it underscores the importance of endurance and faithfulness until God's appointed time of fulfillment. This period is a reminder of the hope and assurance that God’s promises will come to pass, encouraging believers to remain faithful and vigilant.

(12) Blessed is he.--Last words to Daniel. He shall rest in the grave, and stand up in his own lot at the end of the days.

Verse 12. - Blessed is he that waiteth, and cometh to the thousand three hundred and five and thirty days. None of the versions occasion any remark. Blessed is he that waiteth. It might be rendered, Oh the blessed-nesses of him that waiteth! This implies that forty-five days or years after the unknown event that terminates the twelve hundred and ninety days, another event of yet more surpassing interest, and fraught with yet greater benefit, shall occur. It seems most natural to regard this period as including in it that which precedes, though there is no grammatical reason why this period should not commence at the expiry of the twelve hundred and ninety days. In the latter case we are fully more at sea than before.
