Daniel 11:25

Context

1 tn The preposition מִן (min) is probably temporal here (so BDB 583 s.v. 7.c; cf. KJV, NAB, NASB, NIV, NRSV), although it could also be understood here as indicating means (so J. Goldingay, Daniel [WBC], 279, n. 23a; cf. TEV, NLT).

2 tn Heb “nation.”

3 tn Heb “heart.”

4 sn This king of the south was Ptolemy Philometer (ca. 181-145 B.C.).
