Context — Daniel’s Vision by the Tigris
9I heard the sound of his words, and as I listened, I fell into a deep sleep, with my face to the ground.
10Suddenly, a hand touched me and set me trembling on my hands and knees.
11He said to me, “Daniel, you are a man who is highly precious. Consider carefully the words that I am about to say to you. Stand up, for I have now been sent to you.” And when he had said this to me, I stood up trembling.
12“Do not be afraid, Daniel,” he said, “for from the first day that you purposed to understand and to humble yourself before your God, your words were heard, and I have come in response to them. 13However, the prince of the kingdom of Persia opposed me for twenty-one days. Then Michael, one of the chief princes, came to help me, for I had been left there with the kings of Persia.Cross References

Daniel 10:11 Summary
[This verse shows that Daniel was a very special person to God, and God sent an angel to talk to him. The angel told Daniel to listen carefully to what he had to say, and Daniel stood up even though he was shaking with fear. This reminds us that when God speaks to us, we should listen carefully and be humble, like Daniel. As the Bible says in Proverbs 1:7, 'the fear of the Lord is the beginning of knowledge', and in Isaiah 66:2, 'these are the ones I look on with favor: those who are humble and contrite in spirit'.]
Frequently Asked Questions
Why did the angel call Daniel a man who is highly precious?
The angel called Daniel a man who is highly precious because Daniel was a faithful servant of God, and God values those who seek to know and obey Him, as seen in Jeremiah 31:3 and Matthew 10:31.
What does it mean for Daniel to consider carefully the words of the angel?
For Daniel to consider carefully the words of the angel means that he was to give thoughtful attention to the message being communicated, much like the Psalmist in Psalm 119:148, who rose early to meditate on God's words.
Why did Daniel stand up trembling after the angel spoke to him?
Daniel stood up trembling because he was in awe of the angel's presence and the weight of the message being delivered, similar to the response of the disciples in Luke 5:8, who were amazed at the miracle they had just witnessed.
What can we learn from the angel's instruction to Daniel to stand up?
The angel's instruction to Daniel to stand up can teach us about the importance of humility and reverence in the presence of God, as seen in Isaiah 6:1-5, where the prophet Isaiah falls on his face before the Lord.
Reflection Questions
- How can I, like Daniel, cultivate a sense of reverence and awe in my daily walk with God?
- What are some ways that I can 'stand up' and be attentive to the voice of the Lord in my life?
- In what ways can I demonstrate my value and appreciation for the preciousness that God has placed on my life, as He did with Daniel?
- How can I apply the principle of careful consideration to the words of Scripture and the leading of the Holy Spirit in my life?
Gill's Exposition on Daniel 10:11
And he said unto me, O Daniel, a man greatly beloved,.... Or, "a man of desires" (u); a most desirable man, lovely to God and men; the same epithet Gabriel gives him, Daniel 9:22, which confirms the
Jamieson-Fausset-Brown on Daniel 10:11
And he said unto me, O Daniel, a man greatly beloved, understand the words that I speak unto thee, and stand upright: for unto thee am I now sent. And when he had spoken this word unto me, I stood trembling.
Matthew Poole's Commentary on Daniel 10:11
A man greatly beloved: the Lord moulds and models us as clay in his hands to receive his impressions: we are not fit for any great thing till we are abased; and yet when we are vilest in our eyes we are most precious in God’ s eyes. Understand the words that I speak unto thee, and stand upright. Thus Saul, when he was struck down, and struck blind, then he received his call and commission to be an apostle, and to know the mystery of Christ: see . When he had spoken this word unto me, I stood trembling: the Lord doth not restore at once his servants from their frailties, that they by gradual comforts may prize every drop of mercy, being not quickened at once, when they are mortified, but may be admonished, by the remains of fears and frailties, to keep their hearts humble.
Trapp's Commentary on Daniel 10:11
Daniel 10:11 And he said unto me, O Daniel, a man greatly beloved, understand the words that I speak unto thee, and stand upright: for unto thee am I now sent. And when he had spoken this word unto me, I stood trembling.Ver. 11. O Daniel, a man greatly beloved.] Such shall know God’ s secrets. See Daniel 9:23. Stand upright.] Heb., Stand upon thy standing. God by his grace and Word will raise up those that humble themselves in his presence. “ Deiecit ut relevet. ”
Ellicott's Commentary on Daniel 10:11
(11) Greatly beloved.—See Daniel 9:23, Note. The assuring words thus addressed to the prophet enabled him to stand upright, but his alarm had not as yet subsided.
Cambridge Bible on Daniel 10:11
11. And he said unto me] The speaker is the dazzling being described in Daniel 10:5-6. thou man greatly beloved] greatly desired, lit. man of desirablenesses: see on Daniel 9:23. stand upright] lit. stand upon thy standing, the idiom explained on Daniel 8:18. for now am I sent unto thee] now, i.e. (Daniel 9:22) at last, after the delay described in Daniel 10:12. trembling] that I should have been accosted by a being so august. The word, as Ezra 10:9 (not as Daniel 10:7, above).
Barnes' Notes on Daniel 10:11
And he said unto me, O Daniel, a man greatly beloved - That is, in heaven. Margin, as in Hebrew, “of desires.” See the notes at Daniel 9:23.
