And I heard, but I understood not: then said I, O my Lord, what shall be the end of these things?
I heard, but I understood not. Daniel "understood" the main features of the vision as to Antiochus (Daniel 10:1; Daniel 10:14), but not as to the times. 1 Peter 1:10-12 refers mainly to Daniel: for it is he who foretells "the suffering of Christ, and the glory that should follow;" it is he who prophesies "not unto himself, but unto us;" it is he who "inquired and searched diligently, searching what, or what manner of time, the Spirit of Christ in him did signify."
