Commentary on Daniel 11:3

Theological / Devotional

A mighty king. Heb. melek gibbor, “a valiant [warrior] king.” This clearly refers to Alexander the Great (336-323 B.C.).

Great dominion. Alexander’s dominion extended from Macedonia and Greece to northwestern India, from Egypt to the Jaxartes River east of the Caspian Sea — the largest empire the world had yet known (see on Daniel 2:39 ; 7:6).
