Commentary

Commentary on Daniel 8:13

Theological / Devotional

How long? The question is tersely stated in the Hebrew, which reads literally, “How long the vision, the continual, the desolating transgression to give both sanctuary and host to trampling.”

Daily sacrifice. See on v. 11.

The transgression of desolation. This term covers both pagan and papal systems of false religion in conflict with the religion of God (see on vs. 9, 11).

Sanctuary. See on v. 14.

Host. See on v. 10.
