16<\/strong>. one of them that<\/em> were standing<\/strong> (there)] One of the angels that ‘stood’ before the Almighty ( Dan 7:10<\/em><\/span>), who happened to be nearer than the others to Daniel himself. For the part of interpreter taken by an angel in a vision, cf. Zec 1:7<\/span> to Zec 6:8<\/span> passim<\/em>; and the Apocalypses of Enoch and 2 Esdras. It is characteristic of the later prophecies: in the visions of the earlier prophets (as Amos 7, 8<\/span>, Isaiah 6<\/span>, Jeremiah 1<\/span>, Ezekiel 2-5, 8<\/span>, 9<\/span>, &c.), Jehovah speaks Himself to the prophet. We have the transition in Ezekiel 40-48, where an angel conducts the prophet, and usually explains things to him (Eze 40:3-4<\/span>, &c.), though sometimes Jehovah also speaks Himself (Eze 43:7-9<\/span>, Eze 44:2<\/span>; Eze 44:5<\/span>, &c.).<\/p>\n of all this<\/em> ] better, concerning<\/strong> all this<\/em> (R.V.).<\/p>\n I came near unto one of them that stood by – <\/B>That is, to one of the angels who appeared to stand near the throne. Dan 7:10<\/span>. Compare Dan 8:13<\/span>; Zec 4:4-5<\/span>; Rev 7:13<\/span>. It was natural for Daniel to suppose that the angels who were seen encircling the throne would be able to give him information on the subject, and the answers which Daniel received show that he was not mistaken in his expectation. God has often employed angels to communicate important truths to men, or has made them the medium of communicating his will. Compare Rev 1:1<\/span>; Act 7:53<\/span>; Heb 2:2<\/span>.<\/P> So he told me, and made me know the interpretation of the things – <\/B>He explained the meaning of the symbols, so that Daniel understood them. It would seem probable that Daniel has not recorded all that the angel communicated respecting the vision, but he has preserved so much that we may understand its general signification.<\/P><\/p>\n Unto one of them that stood by; that is, to an angel that ministered, Zec 3:4<\/span>,7<\/span>. <\/P> Asked him the truth of all this; that I might learn of him the true and full meaning of this vision; which the angel readily told him. <\/P> <\/p>\n I came near unto one of them that stood by<\/strong>,…. To one of the angels that attended, either the throne of judgment, or, the Son of man in his approach to his divine Father:<\/p>\n and asked him the truth of all this<\/strong>; the substance of these visions; what these images, presented to his view, were shadows and representations of; so type and truth, shadow and substance, are opposed to each other. The real meaning of all this was what he asked; nor need any be ashamed to ask of whomsoever they can hope to get knowledge of truth, and especially of superiors, of the angels of the churches, or pastors of them:<\/p>\n so he told me, and made me know the interpretation of the things<\/strong>; he interpreted everything in the vision to him, and gave him the true meaning and real design of the whole, as follows: this was asked and told, not when Daniel was awake, and was considering of what he had dreamed; but in his dream, in his vision by night; this was all transacted in a visionary way, both the things and the interpretation of them.<\/p>\n (16) That stood by<\/strong>i.e.<\/em>, one out of the multitudes mentioned (Dan. 7:10<\/span>).<\/p>\n Dan 7:16 I came near unto one of them that stood by, and asked him the truth of all this. So he told me, and made me know the interpretation of the things.<\/p>\n Ver. 16. I came near unto one of them that stood by,<\/strong> ] i.e., <\/em> To one of the holy angels. as <\/em> Dan 7:10 Let us have recourse in like case to Christ’s ministers, who are called “angels of the churches”; like as angels, by a like change of name, are called “ministering spirits.” Heb 1:14 The preaching of the gospel is taken from the angels, Luk 2:10 and given to the ministers: hence Paul was sent to Ananias for further direction, Act 9:10-11 and Cornelius to Peter. Act 10:3-5 <\/p>\n <\/p>\n And asked him the truth,<\/strong> ] i.e., <\/em> The thing hereby signified. See Joh 1:17<\/span> ; Joh 14:7<\/span> ; holy minds are industrious after knowledge.<\/p>\n them.: i.e. the standing ones. <\/p>\n stood = were standing. <\/p>\n asked = made exact inquiry. <\/p>\n truth = certainty. Chaldee. ya’ib. <\/p>\n of = about. <\/p>\n Dan 7:16<\/p>\n Dan 7:16 I came nearH7127 untoH5922 oneH2298 ofH4481 them that stood by,H6966 and askedH1156 H4481 him the truthH3330 ofH5922 allH3606 this.H1836 So he toldH560 me, and made me knowH3046 the interpretationH6591 of the things.H4406 <\/p>\n Dan 7:16<\/p>\n I came near unto one of them that stood by, and asked him the truth of all this. So he told me, and made me know the interpretation of the things.<\/p>\n This dream was very real. Obviously there were beings, probably angels, in attendance during this vision. In John’s Revelation, he also spoke with various characters present in his visions as well. And the characters in both men’s visions helped to explain what it was they were seeing. The identity of this heavenly being is not given here, but we get a clue from Daniel’s vision of the seventy weeks prophecy of who this may have been he spoke with. <\/p>\n Before receiving the vision of the seventy weeks prophecy, Daniel had been in prayer to God concerning the sins of Israel. During that prayer, Daniel received a heavenly visitor who was sent to give him the prophecy of the seventy weeks. Daniel made this statement in his narration of the events, “”even the man Gabriel, whom I had seen in the vision at the beginning”. This was the first vision recorded for us by Daniel so it is possible that this unnamed being to which Daniel said he spoke may have been Gabriel. <\/p>\n one: Dan 7:10, Dan 8:13-16, Dan 10:5, Dan 10:6, Dan 10:11, Dan 10:12, Dan 12:5, Dan 12:6, Zec 1:8-11, Zec 2:3, Zec 3:7, Rev 5:5, Rev 7:13, Rev 7:14 <\/p>\n Reciprocal: Dan 8:15 – sought Zec 1:9 – what Zec 4:4 – What<\/p>\n Dan 7:16, This verse tells ns to whom Daniel told his dream; it was to one of them that stood by. This was evidently some person sent by the Loid to explain to Daniel the interpretation of his dream. It is true that God could have inspired the prophet with the interpretation also even as he did in other instances, but He has not always done his work after the same maimer (Heb 1:1). After the one that stood by had given to Daniel the interpretation of the dream he disappeared from the scene and the rest of the chapter will be the direct words of Daniel, repeated, of course, after the interpretation as he received it. We may be sure that the Lord will give the prophet whatever help is necessary to assure a correct report of that given him.<\/p>\n 7:16 I came near unto {e} one of them that stood by, and asked him the truth of all this.
