15 And when he had spoken H1696 such words H1697 unto me, I set H5414 my face H6440 toward the ground, H776 and I became dumb. H481
In that day H3117 shall thy mouth H6310 be opened H6605 to him which is escaped, H6412 and thou shalt speak, H1696 and be no more dumb: H481 and thou shalt be a sign H4159 unto them; and they shall know H3045 that I am the LORD. H3068
And, G2532 behold, G2400 thou G2071 shalt be dumb, G4623 and G2532 not G3361 able G1410 to speak, G2980 until G891 the day G2250 that G3739 these things G5023 shall be performed, G1096 because G473 G3739 thou believest G4100 not G3756 my G3450 words, G3056 which G3748 shall be fulfilled G4137 in G1519 their G846 season. G2540
Yet heard H8085 I the voice H6963 of his words: H1697 and when I heard H8085 the voice H6963 of his words, H1697 then was I in a deep sleep H7290 on my face, H6440 and my face H6440 toward the ground. H776

Commentary on Daniel 10 Matthew Henry Commentary
Chapter 10
This chapter and the two next (which conclude this book) make up one entire vision and prophecy, which was communicated to Daniel for the use of the church, not by signs and figures, as before (ch. 7 and 8), but by express words; and this was about two years after the vision in the foregoing chapter. Daniel prayed daily, but had a vision only now and then. In this chapter we have some things introductory to the prophecy, in the eleventh chapter the particular predictions, and ch. 12 the conclusion of it. This chapter shows us,
Dan 10:1-9
This vision is dated in the third year of Cyrus, that is, of his reign after the conquest of Babylon, his third year since Daniel became acquainted with him and a subject to him. Here is,
Dan 10:10-21
Much ado here is to bring Daniel to be able to bear what Christ has to say to him. Still we have him in a fright, hardly and very slowly recovering himself; but he is still answered and supported with good words and comfortable words. Let us see how Daniel is by degrees brought to himself, and gather up the several passages that are to the same purport.
