Notes, Explanatory and Practical, on the Old and New Testaments (1832-1869)

I Daniel was grieved in my spirit - That is, I was troubled; or my heart was made heavy and sad. This was probably in part because he did not fully understand the meaning of the vision, and partly on account of the fearful and momentous nature of what was indicated by it. So the apostle John Rev 5:4 says, “And I wept much because no man was found worthy to open and to read the book.” In the midst of my body - Margin, as in the Chaldee, sheath.
