But you, go your way until the end; you will rest, and will stand in your allotted place at the end of the days—concluding the entire prophecy by assuring Daniel that he will rest in death before witnessing fulfillment but that he will be resurrected and stand in his assigned place when all things are accomplished. The promise of resurrection to Daniel specifically personalizes the eschatological hope and assures the prophet of participation in ultimate redemption. The assurance of "allotted place" affirms that each righteous person has a predetermined role in God's fulfillment.
