John Trapp on Daniel 8:17

Ver. 17. So he came near where I ſtood] Let our obedience be like that of the Angels, prompt and preſent.

I was afraid] Through humane frailty and conſcience of ſin.

Ʋnderſtand O ſon of man] Ezekeil and Daniel only of all the Prophets, are ſo called: haply leſt they ſhould be exalted above meaſure with the abundance of the revelations.

For at the time of the end ſhall be the viſion] i. e. That this viſion of the daily ſacrifice intermitted for ſo many years, and the abomination of deſolation (the picture of Jupiter Olympius) ſet up in the Sanctuary, ſhall be toward the end of the Greek Monarchy.
