Bible Note: Greetings CDBJ! I'm afraid I'm still confused! The Hebrew word 'Amad' is a Qal stem verb. The Enhanced Strong's lists the following definitions for it: ******************************************** 1) to stand, remain, endure, take one’s stand 1a) (Qal) 1a1) to stand, take one’s stand, be in a standing attitude, stand forth, take a stand, present oneself, attend upon, be or become servant of 1a2) to stand still, stop (moving or doing), cease 1a3) to tarry, delay, remain, continue, abide, endure, persist, be steadfast 1a4) to make a stand, hold one’s ground 1a5) to stand upright, remain standing, stand up, rise, be erect, be upright 1a6) to arise, appear, come on the scene, stand forth, appear, rise up or against 1a7) to stand with, take one’s stand, be appointed, grow flat, grow insipid ******************************************** The problem with correlating Dan. 12:1 with 2 Thes. 2:7 is that 'Amad' does not mean 'to disappear' or 'to be removed'. It means 'to take a stand or stand'. So, where did you get the definitions of 'cease, leave, and rise up'? I checked several sources and never saw those listed as options. Just curious!
