What reading level is The Two Later Visions of Daniel Historically Explained book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
The arms of the flood may thus be viewed as probably equivalent here to " the arms of Egypt. " The words will refer, therefore, to the first • campaign of Antiochus against Egypt, placed by the best chronologers, a. C. 171, in the fourth year of his reign.
It is plain that, on the accession of Antiochus, Pales- tine was in the power of the Syrian kings. Though Coele Syria and Phenice are said to have been ceded by Antiochus the Great as the dowry of Cleopatra, it would seem that this amounted r...eally to nothing- more than a nominal share of the sovereignty, and a division of the revenues, for throughout the reign of Seleucus they were subject to Syria. The aggression does not appear to have been entirely on the part of Antiochus. We may infer, from a fragment of Diodorus (Tom. Ix. P. 414), that the " arms of the flood" or of Egypt, were first in the field.
* Ptolemy, king of Egypt, knowing that his ancestors had held Ccele Syria, made great preparations, intend- ing to reclaim it. For he hoped that as it had been lost by an unjust war, he might justly reclaim it by the same laws of arms.
