Bible Study: Daniel Chapters 10

Daniel is completely overwhelmed by a vision. Though no one else can see anything, they can tell something is up and they run away. Daniel is really shook up by this one and has to be lifted off the ground by the messenger. After a big build up the messenger just tells him that the Babylonians are going to be over run by Persians and Greeks.

Thoughts:

- For some reason this chapter strikes me as especially strange. Daniel really suffers when the vision and messenger come upon him. All of this for a one liner at the end. Why do visions have such a unhappy effect on the recipient?
