What Does Daniel 10:7 Mean?
Daniel alone beheld the vision. The men with him saw nothing, yet a great trembling seized them, and they fled to hide. Something of the heavenly presence pressed upon them even though it was hidden from their eyes.
There are moments God grants to one and not to the crowd. Daniel's companions sensed the holy weight without seeing its source, much as Paul's companions on the Damascus road heard a sound but did not see the Lord. Revelation is a gift, given as God chooses. To be the one entrusted with sight is both a privilege and a burden, for it leaves the seer standing alone before what others cannot bear.
