Daniel 10:14
French (La Bible expliquée)
Et maintenant je viens pour te faire comprendre ce qui arrivera à ton peuple dans l'avenir, car voici encore une vision qui concerne ce temps-là.” L'image des anges de Dieu combattant les divinités protectrices de la Perse et de la Grèce et qui ont besoin de renfort peut étonner. Mais par cette image, la captivité du message divin est mise en relation avec la réalité politique: les pouvoirs perse, puis grec, empêchent l'épanouissement de la foi. Si Daniel, qui a servi les administrations babylonienne et perse, a pu éviter toute forme de compromission, il n'en va pas de même pour le peuple saint: la soumission à un pouvoir idolâtre nuit à la libre expression de la foi et contrarie la relation avec Dieu.
What Does This Mean?
In this verse, an angel is speaking to Daniel and says that he has come to explain what will happen to the Jewish people in the future because the vision involves events far into the future.

Imagine you have a friend who knows about things that are going to happen when you grow up. Your friend tells you, 'I'm here to tell you what life might be like for your family and friends way into the future.' That's kind of like what this angel is doing with Daniel.
