Hebrew Bible · Daniel

Daniel 8:9–14

The little horn and sanctuary crisis

HISTORY
Strongly Supported

The vision describes a horn that attacks the sanctuary and interrupts the regular service.

It waxed great, even to the host of heaven... and by him the daily sacrifice was taken away...

King James Version (public domain) unless otherwise noted

Immediate context and meaning

The interpreting angel situates the vision within the Greek kingdom and a fierce ruler.

Historical setting

  • The Antiochus IV crisis supplies the strongest historical correlation, while later typological and future readings remain influential.

TEXTINTERPRETATION

Sequence must be demonstrated, not assumed

A passage's internal order is evidence. A cross-book chronology is an interpretation that must disclose which texts are being combined, where gaps or recapitulation are proposed, and which alternatives remain viable.
