Daniel10:20

Ver. 20. Knoweſt thou wherefore I came unto thee?] q.d. I told thee that before, ver. 14. and I look thou ſhouldeſt remember it.

I will return to fight with the Prince of Perſia] To defeat and prevent his tyranny and cruel intents againſt thy people (ſee ver. 13.) not without the devils hand and help.

And when I am gone forth] ſc. Out of Perſia.

Loe the Prince of Graecia] Great Alexander, whom I will fetch in, ſo that the Perſians ſhall have henceforth little leiſure or mind to meddle with the Jews. There were other Grecian Captains alſo before Alexander who found the Perſians ſomewhat to do, as Leonides, Miltiades, Themiſtocles: but he overturned their Monarchy.
