Abstract

This article is the second and final part of a study examining the literary structure of Daniel 10–12. The first article identified seven passage sections and highlighted the literary elements supporting its structure. This second part analyzes the markers that define the central section, specifically Daniel 11:16–31, which addresses the theme of the Roman kings. Special attention is given to the oracle predicting the death of the Messiah (11:22b), emphasizing the unique themes and key phrases surrounding this declaration in the section on Imperial Rome (11:16–31). Additionally, internal divisions are proposed for each of the seven sections of Daniel 10–12. Finally, inferences are drawn to guide selecting the most suitable hermeneutical approach for studying the text.
