Go and rest



In this last of Daniel's visions, He sees a great war, and it greatly disturbs him.

Normally, when Daniel has a vision, the meaning and the answer come to him quickly, but in this case, he remains in the dark for 3 weeks. That is a long time.

Why does Satan not want Daniel to know the meaning of this vision?

What makes this vision so much different than the rest? Do they not all have wars and horrible things happening? This one does not even have dreadful beasts. So why does this vision warrant such a fierce heavenly battle, just to bring the meaning to us?

Perhaps because it focuses in on the eternal consequences of man's decisions, the eternal destiny of both the wicked and the righteous.

Perhaps also because it tells us how we should live, in light of the current world situation.

May God give you rest and peace as the chaos approaches.
