Daniel 10:13
_ _ prince of ... Persia — the angel of darkness that represented the Persian world power, to which Israel was then subject. This verse gives the reason why, though Daniel’s “words were heard from the first day” (Daniel 10:12), the good angel did not come to him until more than three weeks had elapsed (Daniel 10:4).
_ _ one and twenty days — answering to the three weeks of Daniel’s mourning (Daniel 10:2).
_ _ Michael — that is, “Who is like God?” Though an archangel, “one of the chief princes,” Michael was not to be compared to God.
_ _ help me — Michael, as patron of Israel before God (Daniel 10:21; Daniel 12:1), “helped” to influence the Persian king to permit the Jews’ return to Jerusalem.
_ _ I remained — I was detained there with the kings of Persia, that is, with the angel of the Persian rulers, with whom I had to contend, and from whom I should not have got free, but for the help of Michael. Gesenius translates, “I obtained the ascendency,” that is, I gained my point against the adverse angel of Persia, so as to influence the Persian authorities to favor Israel’s restoration. |
Daniel 10:13
Withstood me — God suffered the wicked counsels of Cambyses to take place awhile; but Daniel by his prayers, and the angel by his power, overcame him at last: and this very thing laid a foundation of the ruin of the Persian monarchies. Michael — Michael here is commonly supposed to mean Christ. I remained — To counter — work their designs against the people of God. |
Daniel 10:13
But the (h) prince of the kingdom of Persia withstood me one and twenty days: but, lo, (i) Michael, one of the chief princes, came to help me; and I remained there with the kings of Persia.
(h) Meaning Cambyses, who reigned in his father's absence, and did not only for this time hinder the building of the temple, but would have further raged, if God had not sent me to resist him: and therefore I have stayed for the profit of the Church.
(i) Even though God could by one angel destroy all the world, yet to assure his children of his love he sends forth double power, even Michael, that is, Christ Jesus the head of angels. |
- the prince:
Daniel 10:20 Then said he, Knowest thou wherefore I come unto thee? and now will I return to fight with the prince of Persia: and when I am gone forth, lo, the prince of Grecia shall come.

Ezra 4:24 Then ceased the work of the house of God which [is] at Jerusalem. So it ceased unto the second year of the reign of Darius king of Persia.
Zechariah 3:1-2 And he shewed me Joshua the high priest standing before the angel of the LORD, and Satan standing at his right hand to resist him. ... And the LORD said unto Satan, The LORD rebuke thee, O Satan; even the LORD that hath chosen Jerusalem rebuke thee: [is] not this a brand plucked out of the fire?

Daniel 12:1 And at that time shall Michael stand up, the great prince which standeth for the children of thy people: and there shall be a time of trouble, such as never was since there was a nation [even] to that same time: and at that time thy people shall be delivered, every one that shall be found written in the book.
