TTN Tyndale Theme Notes:

The Little Horn

The little horn in Daniel’s vision stands for a king; it has personal features such as human eyes and a mouth. This imagery is characteristic of apocalyptic literature. The little horn captures Daniel’s attention because of its “boastful speech” and its violent actions against other kings, God’s people, and the Most High.

What or who is the little horn? The little horn of Daniel 7:8 is closely tied to the figures of evil in 9:27 and 11:40-45. Antiochus IV Epiphanes (8:9-14, 23-25; 11:21-39) has characteristics similar to the little horn of 7:8, but they do not appear to be identical. Ancient and modern interpreters have held that the little horn is the Antichrist to come. Some maintain that certain historical persons of the Greek and Roman empires have preliminarily fulfilled the vision (e.g., Antiochus IV Epiphanes, Nero, Caligula, Domitian). According to this view, this being yet to come will be a man, not a demon or Satan.

It is also helpful to see the little horn as representing the embodiment of evil that is directed against God and his people. Some interpreters believe that no single man will fulfill this vision, but that the vision represents the evil forces at work in the world. Others hold that the Antichrist has already come. The idea of the Antichrist does seem to have an ultimate fulfillment, as suggested by the New Testament (see 2 Thes 2:3-12; 1 John 2:18; 4:3; 2 Jn 1:7; Rev 13:1, 5; 16:13-14; 17:11; 19:20-21; 20:10).

Regardless, this little horn reminds God’s people that evil violently opposes God and his people. The king described here usurps the kingdoms of this world (Dan 7:8), but his demonic system will not prevail because evil will be destroyed. God’s people can take comfort in knowing that this onslaught and manifestation of evil will be short lived (Rev 12:12) and the works of this hellish kingdom will be demolished (Dan 7:11-12). God’s chosen leader, the one “like a son of man” installed by the Ancient One (7:13-14), will rule by God’s divine approval and power, and his reign will prevail in an indestructible kingdom. God’s people are encouraged to endure and be faithful. They live in hope of a righteous kingdom in which God will live among his people (see Rev 21:3). “The passionate commitment of the Lord of Heaven’s Armies will make this happen!” (Isa 9:7).

UTN uW Translation Notes:

וְ⁠דִינָ֖⁠א יִתִּ֑ב

and,court,the sit

This means that the judge will be ready to investigate evidence and make his judgment. Alternate translation: “But the judge will judge” or “The judge will sit down”

Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / activepassive

וְ⁠שָׁלְטָנֵ֣⁠הּ יְהַעְדּ֔וֹן לְ⁠הַשְׁמָדָ֥ה וּ⁠לְ⁠הוֹבָדָ֖ה

and,dominion,his taken_away to,consumed and,to,destroyed

If your language does not use the passive form in this way, you can state this in active form or in another way that is natural in your language. Alternate translation: “the members of the court will take the royal power away from the newest king, and they will consume him and destroy him”

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / metonymy

וְ⁠שָׁלְטָנֵ֣⁠הּ

and,dominion,his

Here, dominion refers to “authority.” See how you translated this in Daniel 7:14.
