Daniel 11:44-45

DANIEL—NOTE ON Daniel 11:44 One striking difference between Antiochus IV Epiphanes and the Antichrist lies in the events surrounding the king’s death. Antiochus IV died during a relatively minor campaign against Persia in 164 B.C., not between the sea and Jerusalem after a grand and successful assault on Egypt. When compared to the precision of fulfillment of the early verses of ch. Daniel 11:1, these later verses may be looking for a greater fulfillment that is yet to come at the time of the end. the glorious holy mountain. This is the Temple Mount in Jerusalem.
