                 CHAPTER XII INTRODUCTION TO THE LAST


                                         VISION (Chapter 10)



               The last three chapters of the book of Daniel


               are  inseparable,  for  they  relate  the  last


               recorded  vision  of  the  prophet.  The  tenth


               chapter is preliminary to a detailed history of


               the  world,  and  is  valuable  because  of  the


               important spiritual lessons which it contains.


               Daniel was an old man, and nearing the end of


               a long and eventful career, but his last days


               were full of anxiety for his race, and he still


               carried  the  burden  of  their  captivity  on  his



               heart. Since the events recorded in the ninth


               chapter, he had been in the lions’ den, thrust


               there  because  of  the  cruel  hatred  of  men  in


               high positions. His godly life was a constant


               rebuke to the corruption of men in office, and
