Hi, John here; Good thread!
So far there is not much to the question to be 'real' sure on though? Perhaps Daniel was wondering about [his] 'allotted portion'?
Rom. 2:7 says: "To them who by patient [CONTINUANCE IN WELL DOING SEEK] for glory and honor and IMMORTALITY, ETERNAL LIFE". He must have not believed that it was a done deal? (seek?)
Then in Daniel 7:10 we see.. "the [JUDGEMENT] was set, and the [BOOKS were opened]." Starting in verse 9 it says.. "I beheld till the thrones were cast down, and the [ANCIENT OF DAYS DID SET] .."
This reminds me of another post from Eccl. 12:13-14 of mans whole duty? "Let us hear the conclusion of the whole matter: Fear God, and keep His commandments: for this is the [WHOLE DUTY OF MAN]. For God shall bring [every work into JUDGEMENT], with every secret thing, whether it [be good, or whether it be evil]." (both!?) Perhaps Daniel was trying to get some extra 'early' security knowledge from his life here?
(all recorded in books
) He should have lived in our day when all believers have it 'secured', huh?

Daniel 12:
13 "But as for you, go your way to the end; then you will enter into rest and rise again for your allotted portion at the end of the age."
What is Daniels "allotted portion at the end of the age."
