who is him in the book of Danial ch.11: 1 ?

Answer 1

Look at the context: It's clearly the messenger angel speaking of Michael the Archangel:

Daniel 11:1 says, "I [the messenger angel], in the first year of Darius, the Mede, even I, stood to confirm and to strengthen [the archangel Michael]. " Michael had helped out that angel about three years previously (Dan. 10:1) when the decree allowing the Jewish people to return to their land was issued. Apparently the demon named "the prince of Persia" (Dan. 10:13) was trying to prevent that return, and that's why Michael needed assistance. That gives us insight into how the holy angels enforce God's will in the midst of demonic activity.

The messenger angel brought a revelation of God's future plans for His people. Though Daniel was told that his people would continue to suffer through the tribulation until the establishment of the millennial kingdom (Dan. 12:2) , it was a comfort for him to know that his people would be under the protection of God's holy angels throughout that period.

Answer 2

Darius, meaning the holder, or governor, was the name, or title, of a number of ancient Persian kings (see Ancient Empires - Persia). Darius the Mede is known in The Bible record in connection to two famous incidents involving the prophet Daniel. Darius came to power when Belshazzar was deposed after the famous Writing On The Wall incident, and Daniel In The Lion's Den occurred during Darius' reign.

Darius the Mede named as "King of Babylon" in the Book of Daniel, variously identified (sometimes assumed to be Gubaru).

Gubaru (c. 601 BC – ?) was the Median governor of Babylon following the conquest of that city by Persian ruler Cyrus the Great. Some have claimed that he is the Darius named in the Book of Daniel, suggesting that Darius was a title assumed by Median kings

Answer 3

Very hard question. It appears to be the angel that visited Daniel at chapter 10; 5 and 6. This unnamed angel strenghthens Daniel and then proceeds to give him the prophecy of the Kings of north and south.

I made a mistake, it's Michael the Archangel that is referred to as him.

Answer 4

I think "him" in Daniel 11:1 is referring to Michael the archangel. I think that an angel was telling Daniel that he was going to support and protect the archangel Michael against the evil principalities or demonic spirit princes.

Answer 5

Father K gave you the correct response. It is important to read before the present chapter as well as after to understand. Daniel was a prophet. Bible studies will help you understand this better. You cannot take one verse and question who the him is without reading the whole chapter.

Best of hunting to you.
