Context

Daniel 10:6

Context
10:6 His body resembled yellow jasper, 5  and his face had an appearance like lightning. His eyes were like blazing torches; 6  his arms and feet had the gleam of polished bronze. His voice 7  thundered forth like the sound of a large crowd.

1 tn The words “all this” are added in the translation for stylistic reasons and for clarification.

2 tn Heb “and behold, a he-goat of the goats.”

3 tn Or “of the whole earth” (NAB, ASV, NASB, NRSV).

4 tn Heb “a horn of vision” [or “conspicuousness”], i.e., “a conspicuous horn,” one easily seen.

5 tn The Hebrew word translated “yellow jasper” is תַּרשִׁישׁ (tarshish); it appears to be a semiprecious stone, but its exact identity is somewhat uncertain. It may be the yellow jasper, although this is conjectural. Cf. NAB, NIV “chrysolite”; NASB, NRSV “beryl.”

6 tn Heb “torches of fire.”

7 tn Heb “The sound of his words” (cf. v. 9).
