Daniel, as Bp. Newton observes, was now very far advanced in
years; for the third year of Cyrus was the 73rd of his
captivity; and being a youth when carried captive, he cannot
be supposed to have been less than ninety. Old as he was, "he
set his heart to understand," the former revelations which had
been made to him, and particularly the vision of the ram and
he-goat, as may be collected from the sequel; and for this
purpose he prayed and fasted three weeks. His fasting and
prayers had the desired effect, for and angel was sent to
unfold to him those mysteries; and whoever would excel in
divine knowledge, must imitate Daniel, and habituate himself
to study, temperance, and devotion.
