Daniel 11:36 meaning and explanation

Then the king will do as he pleases and will exalt and magnify himself above every god, and he will speak monstrous things against the God of gods. He will be successful until the time of wrath is completed, for what has been decreed must be accomplished.

Daniel 11:36, Berean Standard Bible

The speaker is the angel who has been unfolding history to Daniel, and here the long prophecy turns to a king who exalts himself above every god. In the flow of chapter 11, this figure follows the desecrator of the temple in verse 31, and many readers see him as a later, climactic tyrant.
