Definitions for Daniel 10:15

Clarke's Daniel 10:15 Bible Commentary

I set my face toward the ground - He was standing upright, Daniel 10:11, and he now bent his body in reverence, and looked down upon the ground.

And became dumb - Found himself unable to speak.

Barnes's Daniel 10:15 Bible Commentary

And when he had spoken such words ... - Daniel was naturally overcome by the communication which had been made to him. The manner in which the prayer was answered seems to have been entirely different from what he had expected. The presence of a heavenly being; the majesty of his appearance; the assurance that he gave that he had come to answer his prayer; and the fact that he had important revelations to make respecting the future, overcame him, and he laid his face upon the ground in silence. Is there any one of us who would not be awed into profound silence if a heavenly messenger should stand before us to disclose what was to occur to us, to our families, to our friends, to our country, in far-distant years?

Wesley's Daniel 10:15 Bible Commentary

10:15 I set my face - I prostrated myself upon the earth.And I became dumb - Thro' astonishment.
