Daniel Chapter 10 Vs. 6

Daniel's Terrifying Vision of a Man

Daniel 10:6 "His body also [was] like the beryl, and his face as the appearance of lightning, and his eyes as lamps of fire, and his arms and his feet like in colour to polished brass, and the voice of his words like the voice of a multitude."




The messenger, whom Daniel sees in a vision, verses 1, and 7, was distinct from the angel Michael, from whom he needed assistance, v.13.

Angels, who dwell in the presence of God who is light, are themselves clothed with light, and Daniel saw something of heaven’s glory reflected in this one who visited him (Dan. 10:5-6).

Look, with me, at Revelation 1:13-16

"And in the midst of the seven candlesticks [one] like unto the Son of man, clothed with a garment down to the foot, and girt about the paps with a golden girdle." "His head and [his] hairs [were] white like wool, as white as snow; and his eyes [were] as a flame of fire;" “And his feet like unto fine brass, as if they burned in a furnace; and his voice as the sound of many waters.” “And he had in his right hand seven stars: and out of his mouth went a sharp twoedged sword: and his countenance [was] as the sun shineth in his strength.”

Daniel’s reaction is similar to John’s Rev. 1:17.

Rev. 1:17 "And when I saw him, I fell at his feet as dead. And he laid his right hand upon me, saying unto me, Fear not; I am the first and the last:"
