“And he informed me, and talked with me, and said, O Daniel, I am now come forth to give thee skill and understanding.”
Gabriel instructs Daniel to consider the message and understand the vision—preparing him to receive complex eschatological chronology that will explain the timeline of restoration. The exhortation to "understand" emphasizes that revelation requires active cognitive engagement, not merely passive reception. This sets the framework for the highly structured prophecy of seventy weeks to follow.
