Daniel 11:25
_ _ A fuller detail of what was summarily stated (Daniel 11:22-24). This is the first of Antiochus’ three (Daniel 11:29) open invasions of Egypt.
_ _ against the king of the south — against Ptolemy Philometer. Subsequently, Ptolemy Physcon (the Gross), or Euergetes II, was made king by the Egyptians, as Ptolemy Philometer was in Antiochus’ hands.
_ _ great army — as distinguished from the “small people” (Daniel 11:23) with which he first came. This was his first open expedition; he was emboldened by success to it. Antiochus “entered Egypt with an overwhelming multitude, with chariots, elephants, and cavalry” (1 Maccabees 1:17).
_ _ stirred up — by the necessity, though naturally indolent.
_ _ not stand — Philometer was defeated.
_ _ they shall forecast, etc. — His own nobles shall frame treacherous “devices” against him (see Daniel 11:26). Euloeus and Lenoeus maladministered his affairs. Antiochus, when checked at last at Alexandria, left Ptolemy Philometer at Memphis as king, pretending that his whole object was to support Philometer’s claims against the usurper Physcon. |
Daniel 11:25
But he shall not stand — He might have prospered, if he had not been betrayed by Eulaius, Benaeus, and the rest of his nobles, corrupted by Antiochus. |
