After introducing the rest of the book where Daniel understood the message the God has been declaring to him, Daniel described the circumstances around his last recorded vision. He was mourning for three weeks including the week the should have been the feast week for Passover. Instead of, as a people, rejoicing in God's favor towards Israel and remembering the great kindness He showed them, Daniel was fasting and avoiding things that pleased him. But then God gives him a vision. A vision of Christ similar to what John saw in Revelation 1. He saw the glory that Nebuchadnezzar was trying to imitate with the statue in the plain of Babylon, but the glory of Christ is far greater than the glory of gold and silver. It was also much more fear inspiring. Compared to men, Daniel was very holy, but compared to the holiness of God, all Daniel saw was his own corruption. He was stunned and left face down on the ground without strength. It is important that we keep the holiness of God in front of us for if we just compare ourselves to the people in this wicked and corrupt generation, we can look fairly clean. But when we see the holiness of God, we are reminded how much we need a Savoir and how much we repenting we still need to do.
