Daniel 10:19 And said, O man greatly beloved, fear not: peace be to you, be strong, yes, be strong… I. THE NAME GIVEN TO DANIEL. "Greatly beloved." Compare John 21-20. We too are each of us the objects of God's love. (Ephesians 2:4, 5). II. THE PEACE WISHED UNTO DANIEL. It is that which St. Paul speaks about. (Romans 5:1; Romans 4:25) If you don't feel that you have the peace, trust God, and he will give you consciousness of it. III. THE THREEFOLD CHARGE. Fear not. Why should you fear? Your Sins are washed away. Christ's righteousness is yours. Be strong. In thy testimony before men. In faith, giving glory to God. Believe, Faith is to be exercised in temporal matters. (J. Duncan Craig, D.D.) Parallel Verses KJV: And said, O man greatly beloved, fear not: peace be unto thee, be strong, yea, be strong. And when he had spoken unto me, I was strengthened, and said, Let my lord speak; for thou hast strengthened me. |
