Jamieson-Fausset-Brown Commentary

Daniel 11:10

_ _ his sons — the two sons of the king of the north, Seleucus Callinicus, upon his death by a fall from his horse, namely, Seleucus Ceraunus and Antiochus the Great.

_ _ one shall ... come — Ceraunus having died, Antiochus alone prosecuted the war with Ptolemy Philopater, Euergetes’ son, until he had recovered all the parts of Syria subjugated by Euergetes.

_ _ pass through — like an “overflowing” torrent (Daniel 11:22, Daniel 11:26, Daniel 11:40; Isaiah 8:8). Antiochus penetrated to Dura (near Caesarea), where he gave Ptolemy a four months’ truce.

_ _ return — renew the war at the expiration of the truce (so Daniel 11:13).

_ _ even to his fortress — Ptolemy’s; Raphia, a border-fortress of Egypt against incursions by way of Edom and Arabia-Petraea, near Gaza; here Antiochus was vanquished.

Matthew Henry's Commentary

See commentary on Daniel 11:5-20.

John Wesley's Explanatory Notes

Daniel 11:10

But his sons — He means the sons of the king of the north, shall be incensed with the deeds of Ptolemaeus Euergetes, and his son Ptolemaeus Philopator. One shall come — Antiochus the great, shall pass through Syria and recover what the king of Egypt took from his father. Even to his fortress — To Raphia, which was a strong fortress at the entrance of Egypt.

Geneva Bible Translation Notes

Daniel 11:10

But his (x) sons shall be stirred up, and shall assemble a multitude of great forces: and [one] (y) shall certainly come, and overflow, and pass through: then shall he (z) return, and be stirred up, [even] to his fortress.

(x) Meaning Seleucus and Antiochus the great, the sons of Calinicus, will make war against Ptolemais Philopater, the son of Philadelphus.

(y) For his older brother Seleucus died, or was slain while the armies were preparing for war.

(z) That is, Philopater, when he will see Antiochus take great dominions from him in Syria, and also ready to invade Egypt.
