“And when he had spoken such words unto me, I set my face toward the ground, and I became dumb.”
As the angel speaks these words, Daniel fixes his gaze downward and becomes mute—indicating the profound psychological and spiritual impact of receiving such weighty disclosure about future suffering and vindication. The loss of speech reflects the inadequacy of human language to express response to apocalyptic revelation. The downward gaze suggests intense internal focus and emotional processing.
