Historically, Egypt was known for its vast wealth, particularly in gold and silver, which were symbols of economic strength. The control over these treasures suggests a dominant political and military influence. In biblical context, wealth often signifies power and influence, as seen in the reigns of kings like Solomon (<a href="/1_kings/10-14.htm">1 Kings 10:14-29</a>). This control could also symbolize the broader theme of earthly kingdoms and their transient nature compared to God's eternal kingdom.<p><b>and over all the riches of Egypt</b><br>Egypt, a prominent nation in biblical history, was often seen as a symbol of worldly power and idolatry. The phrase suggests a complete domination over Egypt's resources, reflecting the historical invasions and conquests by foreign powers. Egypt's wealth was not only in precious metals but also in agriculture and trade. This control could be seen as a fulfillment of prophecies regarding the rise and fall of nations, as Egypt was frequently mentioned in prophetic literature (Isaiah 19, <a href="/ezekiel/29.htm">Ezekiel 29-30</a>).<p><b>and the Libyans and Cushites will also submit to him</b><br>Libya and Cush (modern-day Sudan and parts of Ethiopia) were regions south and west of Egypt, known for their own distinct cultures and resources. Their submission indicates a broader geopolitical influence extending beyond Egypt. Historically, these regions had interactions with Israel and Egypt, often as allies or adversaries (<a href="/jeremiah/46-9.htm">Jeremiah 46:9</a>, <a href="/ezekiel/30-4.htm">Ezekiel 30:4-5</a>). The submission of these nations could symbolize the reach of the prophesied ruler's power, aligning with the biblical theme of God's sovereignty over all nations (<a href="/psalms/22-28.htm">Psalm 22:28</a>). This also reflects the eschatological vision where all nations ultimately submit to God's authority.<div class="vheading2">Persons / Places / Events</div>1. <b><a href="/topical/t/the_king_of_the_north.htm">The King of the North</a></b><br>This figure is a central character in <a href="/bsb/daniel/11.htm">Daniel 11</a>, often interpreted as a powerful ruler or empire that rises in opposition to God's people.

The word translated "treasures" is a late one, but evidently the Septuagint translator had <span class="hebrew">מקם</span> (<span class="accented">maqom</span>) instead of <span class="hebrew">מִכְמַנֵי</span>. (<span class="accented">michemanay</span>). Theodotion renders, "And he shall have power over the secret hoards of gold and silver, and over all the desirable things of Egypt, and of Libyans, and of AEthiopians in their fortresses." Theodotion has read <span class="hebrew">מצוריו</span> (<span class="accented">metzorayo</span>) instead of <span class="hebrew">מִצְעָדָיו</span> (<span class="accented">mitz'adoyo</span>). The Peshitta rendering is, "And he shall have power over the house of the treasures of gold and silver, and of the pleasant things of Egypt, and the Libyans, and the Cushites (Ethiopians) are his allies." The Vulgate follows a slightly different rendering, "And he shall rule the treasures of gold and silver, and over all the precious things of Egypt; through Libya and AEthiopia, too, shall he pass." Having a different reading in the last clause from the Massoretic, the natural Hebrew equivalent for <span class="accented">transibit</span> is <span class="hebrew">יַעְבֹר</span> (<span class="accented">ya'bor</span>) - <span class="accented">a</span> word that could scarcelv arise by mistake from that in the text. <span class="accented">He</span> <span class="accented">shall have power over the treasures of gold and silcer</span>, <span class="accented">and over all the precious things of Egypt.</span> Strictly speaking, this never was the case, as Antiochus never wholly conquered Egypt, although in that expedition, in which he had laid siege to Alexandria, he came very near completing his conquest. <span class="accented">And the Libyans and the Ethiopians shall beat his steps.</span> This certainly is not true in the sense in which Jerome takes it, "he shall pass through Libya and Ethiopia." Though Antiochus more than once invaded Egypt, he never passed further into Africa. These nationalities are associated with each other; <span class="accented">e.g.</span> in <a href="/jeremiah/46-8.htm">Jeremiah 46:8, 9</a>, we have, "The Ethiopians and the Libyans that handle the shield." So in <a href="/ezekiel/30-5.htm">Ezekiel 30:5</a> we have the countries spoken of together. It may merely mean that individuals belonging to these nationalities had joined his armies. This is altogether a more ornate and poetical passage than the rest of this chapter, and gives the feeling of a different hand; therefore, probably, it belongs to a time nearer that of Daniel, and contains more of the original prophecy. Professor Fuller remarks on a reference being made to the help Ptolemy received from Cyprus. Cyprus, or Chittim, is referred to in the earlier part of this chapter, but not here. The Lubim and Cushim are contemporary with Edom, Moab, and the sons of Ammon. <span class="p"><br /><br /></span><span class="versiontext"><a href="/commentaries/daniel/11-43.htm">Parallel Commentaries ...</a></span><span class="p"><br /><br /><br /></span><a name="lexicon" id="lexicon"></a><div class="vheading">Hebrew</div><span class="word">He will gain control</span><br /><span class="heb">וּמָשַׁ֗ל</span> <span class="translit">(ū·mā·šal)</span><br /><span class="parse">Conjunctive waw | Verb - Qal - Conjunctive perfect - third person masculine singular<br /></span><span class="str"><a href="/hebrew/strongs_4910.htm">Strong's 4910: </a> </span><span class="str2">To rule, have dominion, reign</span><br /><br /><span class="word">of the treasures</span><br /><span class="heb">בְּמִכְמַנֵּי֙</span> <span class="translit">(bə·miḵ·man·nê)</span><br /><span class="parse">Preposition-b | Noun - masculine plural construct<br /></span><span class="str"><a href="/hebrew/strongs_4362.htm">Strong's 4362: </a> </span><span class="str2">Hidden stores</span><br /><br /><span class="word">of gold</span><br /><span class="heb">הַזָּהָ֣ב</span> <span class="translit">(haz·zā·hāḇ)</span><br /><span class="parse">Article | Noun - masculine singular<br /></span><span class="str"><a href="/hebrew/strongs_2091.htm">Strong's 2091: </a> </span><span class="str2">Gold, something gold-colored, as oil, a clear sky</span><br /><br /><span class="word">and silver</span><br /><span class="heb">וְהַכֶּ֔סֶף</span> <span class="translit">(wə·hak·ke·sep̄)</span><br /><span class="parse">Conjunctive waw, Article | Noun - masculine singular<br /></span><span class="str"><a href="/hebrew/strongs_3701.htm">Strong's 3701: </a> </span><span class="str2">Silver, money</span><br /><br /><span class="word">and over all</span><br /><span class="heb">וּבְכֹ֖ל</span> <span class="translit">(ū·ḇə·ḵōl)</span><br /><span class="parse">Conjunctive waw, Preposition-b | Noun - masculine singular construct<br /></span><span class="str"><a href="/hebrew/strongs_3605.htm">Strong's 3605: </a> </span><span class="str2">The whole, all, any, every</span><br /><br /><span class="word">the riches</span><br /><span class="heb">חֲמֻד֣וֹת</span> <span class="translit">(ḥă·mu·ḏō·wṯ)</span><br /><span class="parse">Noun - feminine plural construct<br /></span><span class="str"><a href="/hebrew/strongs_2530.htm">Strong's 2530: </a> </span><span class="str2">To desire, take pleasure in</span><br /><br /><span class="word">of Egypt,</span><br /><span class="heb">מִצְרָ֑יִם</span> <span class="translit">(miṣ·rā·yim)</span><br /><span class="parse">Noun - proper - feminine singular<br /></span><span class="str"><a href="/hebrew/strongs_4714.htm">Strong's 4714: </a> </span><span class="str2">Egypt -- a son of Ham, also his descendants and their country in Northwest Africa</span><br /><br /><span class="word">and the Libyans</span><br /><span class="heb">וְלֻבִ֥ים</span> <span class="translit">(wə·lu·ḇîm)</span><br /><span class="parse">Conjunctive waw | Noun - proper - masculine plural<br /></span><span class="str"><a href="/hebrew/strongs_3864.htm">Strong's 3864: </a> </span><span class="str2">Lubim -- inhabitants of North Africa</span><br /><br /><span class="word">and Cushites</span><br /><span class="heb">וְכֻשִׁ֖ים</span> <span class="translit">(wə·ḵu·šîm)</span><br /><span class="parse">Conjunctive waw | Noun - proper - masculine plural<br /></span><span class="str"><a href="/hebrew/strongs_3569.htm">Strong's 3569: </a> </span><span class="str2">Cushite -- descendant of Cush</span><br /><br /><span class="word">will also submit to him.</span><br /><span class="heb">בְּמִצְעָדָֽיו׃</span> <span class="translit">(bə·miṣ·‘ā·ḏāw)</span><br /><span class="parse">Preposition-b | Noun - masculine plural construct | third person masculine singular<br /></span><span class="str"><a href="/hebrew/strongs_4703.htm">Strong's 4703: </a> </span><span class="str2">A step, companionship</span><br /><span class="p"><br /><br /></span><div class="vheading">Links</div><a href="/niv/daniel/11-43.htm">Daniel 11:43 NIV</a><br /><a href="/nlt/daniel/11-43.htm">Daniel 11:43 NLT</a><br /><a href="/esv/daniel/11-43.htm">Daniel 11:43 ESV</a><br /><a href="/nasb/daniel/11-43.htm">Daniel 11:43 NASB</a><br /><a href="/kjv/daniel/11-43.htm">Daniel 11:43 KJV</a><span class="p"><br /><br /></span><a href="//bibleapps.com/daniel/11-43.htm">Daniel 11:43 BibleApps.com</a><br /><a href="//bibliaparalela.com/daniel/11-43.htm">Daniel 11:43 Biblia Paralela</a><br /><a href="//holybible.com.cn/daniel/11-43.htm">Daniel 11:43 Chinese Bible</a><br /><a href="//saintebible.com/daniel/11-43.htm">Daniel 11:43 French Bible</a><br /><a href="/catholic/daniel/11-43.htm">Daniel 11:43 Catholic Bible</a><span class="p"><br /><br /></span><a href="/daniel/11-43.htm">OT Prophets: Daniel 11:43 But he shall have power over (Dan.
