The kingdom of Syria, which was set up by Seleucus Nicanor, or the conqueror; he was one of Alexander's princes, and became stronger than the other, and had the greatest dominion of all, was the most powerful of all Alexander's successors. It was said that he had no fewer than seven-two kingdoms under him.

both . . . to do mischief--each to the other. speak lies at one table--They shall, under the semblance of intimacy, at Memphis try to deceive one another (see on Da 11:3; Da 11:25). it shall not prosper--Neither of them shall carry his point at this time. yet the end shall be--"the end" of the contest between them is reserved for "the time appointed" (Da 11:29, 30).
