“The prince
Of the kingdom
Of Persia
Opposed me
For twenty-one days.
Then,
Michael,
One of the chief princes,
Came to help me.
I left him there
With the prince
Of the kingdom
Of Persia.
I have come
To help you understand
What is to happen
To your people
At the end of the days.
There is a further vision
For those days.”
Somehow or other this man or angel Gabriel got involved in a conflict with the King of Persia for 21 days. However, the good angel Michael, one of the chief princes or archangels, came to help him against this prince of Persia. This man or angel Gabriel then came to help Daniel understand what was going to happen to his people in the future, at the end of days.
