Ellicott's Commentary
Ellicott's Commentary for English Readers(23) The commandment.--The marginal version is to be preferred, which points to the revelation which follows Daniel 9:24-27. The title "greatly beloved" occurs again (Daniel 10:11; Daniel 10:19). It implies that Daniel was worthy of this proof of God's love. St. Jerome compares (2Samuel 12:25) Jedidiah.Parallel Commentaries ...HebrewAt the beginningבִּתְחִלַּ֨ת (biṯ·ḥil·laṯ)Preposition-b | Noun - feminine singular constructStrong's 8462: A commencement, rel, originalof your petitions,תַּחֲנוּנֶ֜יךָ (ta·ḥă·nū·ne·ḵā)Noun - masculine plural construct | second person masculine singularStrong's 8469: Supplication for favoran answerדָבָ֗ר (ḏā·ḇār)Noun - masculine singularStrong's 1697: A word, a matter, thing, a causewent out,יָצָ֣א (yā·ṣā)Verb - Qal - Perfect - third person masculine singularStrong's 3318: To go, bring, out, direct and proximand Iוַאֲנִי֙ (wa·’ă·nî)Conjunctive waw | Pronoun - first person common singularStrong's 589: Ihave comeבָּ֣אתִי (bā·ṯî)Verb - Qal - Perfect - first person common singularStrong's 935: To come in, come, go in, goto tell [you],לְהַגִּ֔יד (lə·hag·gîḏ)Preposition-l | Verb - Hifil - Infinitive constructStrong's 5046: To be conspicuousforכִּ֥י (kî)ConjunctionStrong's 3588: A relative conjunctionyou [are]אָ֑תָּה (’āt·tāh)Pronoun - second person masculine singularStrong's 859: Thou and thee, ye and youhighly precious.חֲמוּד֖וֹת (ḥă·mū·ḏō·wṯ)Adjective - masculine singularStrong's 2530: To desire, take pleasure inSo considerוּבִין֙ (ū·ḇîn)Conjunctive waw | Verb - Qal - Imperative - masculine singularStrong's 995: To separate mentally, understandthe messageבַּדָּבָ֔ר (bad·dā·ḇār)Preposition-b, Article | Noun - masculine singularStrong's 1697: A word, a matter, thing, a causeand understandוְהָבֵ֖ן (wə·hā·ḇên)Conjunctive waw | Verb - Hifil - Imperative - masculine singularStrong's 995: To separate mentally, understandthe vision:בַּמַּרְאֶֽה׃ (bam·mar·’eh)Preposition-b, Article | Noun - masculine singularStrong's 4758: Sight, appearance, visionJump to PreviousBeginning Beloved Command Commandment Commencement Consider Dearly Declare Esteemed First Forth Gain Greatly Heed Highly Issued Loved Matter Message Petitions Prayer Shew Show Soon Supplications Thought Understand Understanding Vision Word
