Today's Reading
This last vision recorded by Daniel contains the most detail. He received it after many years of captivity. In fact, Cyrus of Persia was the king who sent captives back to rebuild the Temple in Jerusalem. Centuries of events are included in the vision, which is hard for me to follow.
To me, the most interesting part of this passage is the picture it give of spiritual war going on in the invisible realm. The image of the archangel Michael fighting against the demon prince of Persia is confirmation that our true foes (Ephesians 6) are spiritual forces rather than flesh and blood.
