a vile person. One of the twelve titles given to the antichrist. See note on Daniel 7:8. The prophecy concerning him is continuous to the end of the chapter. It is parallel with Daniel 7:8, &c.; Daniel 8:9, &c.; and Daniel 9:26; Daniel 9:27. He is not another successional king of the north, but. totally different and unique personage, still future. He comes in by "flatteries", and in Daniel 11:40 he is attacked by both. "king of the south" and. "king of the north". Note the parallel exhibited in App-89.
vile. despicable. Compare Psalms 15:4.
they shall not give. to whom was not given.
honour. dignity.
peaceably. unexpectedly: i.e. in. time of careless security (Compare Daniel 8:25). Compare Ezekiel 16:49 ("abundance of idleness").
