"...what befall thy people (Israel) 'in the latter' days." (Dan 10:14) (77:1) see

Then the Lord makes the following promise to Daniel: (77:2)

"I will shew thee that which is noted in the scripture of truth..." (77:3)

In this very same verse, Daniel is told.. that only Michael, the Chief Prince of Persia, understands the meaning of this latter day vision. The Lord says to Daniel: (77:4)

"..and there is none that holdeth with me (God) in these things, but Michael your prince." (Dan 10:21) (77:5) see

..unlike the prince of.. Persia who resisted Daniel. The Lord calls Michael 'your prince'.. (77:6)

The name Michael, translated into English, means One who looks like God. This is yet another way of saying "the Glory of God".... (77:7)

"And at that time shall Michael stand up, the great prince which standeth for the children of thy people... and at that time thy people shall be delivered..." (Dan 12:1) (77:12) see
