:''So [[Ptolemy I Soter]] [305bc] shall be strong as the dominant power of the South: but [[Seleucus I Nicator|Seleucus the Victor]] who had been sheltered by Ptolemy I after losing [[Babylon]] to [[Antigonus]] [316bc] and served as one of his commanders, shall with [[Ptolemy I Soter|Ptolemy I’s]] support recapture Babylon [312bc].  Thus after this, [[Seleucus I Nicator]] shall wrest the domains of both [[Lysimachus]] and [[Cassander]] [281bc], and so become stronger than [[Ptolemy I Soter|Ptolemy I]]; and he shall have a great dominion.''

:All commentators on this verse are in unison including [[Jerome|Jerome's]] ''Commentary on Daniel''<ref>[[Jerome]], ''Commentary on Daniel'', Chapter 11; https://archive.org/details/20200508-commentary-on-daniel/page/120/mode/2up</ref> and thereby the pagan [[Porphyry|Porphyry's]] [[Preterism]]. Prior to them no extant copy survives.

:'''[[Jerome]]:''' - Identifies [[Ptolemy I Soter]] and while noting that [[Ptolemy I Soter]] helped restor [[Seleucus I Nicator]] to his kingdom, failed to note that Seleucus had been a guest in his court, one of his generals and therefore qualified for the title of "prince".  Thus Jerome skips straight to [[Ptolemy II Philadelphus]] and thereby skipped the chapter's tension between the north and south and failed to note the word 'prevailed' is not a term applied to a son who peacefully comes to the throne.<ref>[[Jerome]], ''Commentary on Daniel'', Chapter 11; https://archive.org/details/20200508-commentary-on-daniel/page/120/mode/2up</ref>
