TSNTyndale Study Notes:

24:15-25 This prophecy provides more specific details than the first three. Based on another vision from the Almighty (24:16), it lists some of the enemies that Israel would defeat in the future and predicts the emergence of an outstanding leader who would play a major role in these military victories (24:17).
