Daniel 10:1-2
New Catholic Bible
Israel’s Suffering and Deliverance[a]
Chapter 10
Vision of the Hellenistic Wars. 1 In the third year of Cyrus, king of Persia, a revelation was given to Daniel, who had been given the name Belteshazzar. The revelation, which dealt with a great conflict, was valid, and its meaning was disclosed to him in a vision.
2 At that time I, Daniel, had been mourning for three weeks.

- Daniel 10:1 Another coded presentation of contemporary history; the puzzle solves itself if we compare what is said here with what we know from other sources about the events and personages that mattered in Palestine at the beginning of the second century. If Daniel is artificially located in the time of Cyrus, it is to facilitate the spread of his coded message. Observe that in this final vision, a very important place is still given to the angels and the assertion of a resurrection.
