Daniel 11:29
At the time appointed he shall return, and come toward the south; but it shall not be as the former, or as the latter. At the time appointed he shall return, and come toward the south; but it shall not be as the former, or as the latter.
Daniel 11:29 belongs to the wonderful prophecies of Daniel 7-12 given to Daniel as God's ambassador to reveal the mysteries of ages to come. It was not fully understood even by Daniel himself and was to be shut up and sealed even to the time of the end. Before Daniel's life work closed he was given the blessed assurance that at the end of the days, in the closing period of this world's history, he would again stand in his lot and place.
The prophecy of which the verse is part has nearly reached its complete fulfillment, being almost completely fulfilled. It points toward the coming scenes of trouble. Those scenes of trouble will soon take place while the world is stirred by the spirit of war.
