To what did Gabriel now direct Daniel's attention?
Answer
"At the beginning of thy supplications the commandment came forth, and I am come to show thee; for thou
art greatly beloved: therefore understand the matter, and consider the vision." Dan. 9:23.
NOTES - There is abundant evidence that the instruction in the ninth chapter of Daniel
supplements and interprets the vision of the eighth chapter. Note the following facts:1. Daniel did not understand the vision concerning the treading down of his people and the
sanctuary, and therefore searched the prophecies anew concerning the period of captivity.
3. From whose words did Christ say the disciples ought to have learned of His death and resurrection?
How are the rise and work of this power described?
Why do the inhabitants of heaven worship God?
Who made the Sabbath day holy?
What is set forth as the basis for hope and comfort?
What will the saints do in the new earth?
How long will they possess the future kingdom?
