Commentary on Daniel 11:13

Theological / Devotional

Shall return. The accession of the child Ptolemy V presented Antiochus III with the opportunity of avenging himself upon the Egyptians. In 201 B.C. he invaded Palestine again.

After certain years. Literally, “at the end of times, years.” The reference is probably to the period of some 16 years (217-201 B.C.) between the Battle of Raphia (see on verse 11) and Antiochus’ second campaign against the south.
