Musar sobre Daniel 10:7

Maimonides writes in chapter 45, section 2, of his Moreh Nevuchim that Daniel was not a prophet, this appears confirmed in the Talmud Megillah 3a on the verse in Daniel 10,7: "and I Daniel alone saw the vision; the people that were with me did not see the vision. However, a great fear befell them." In answer to the question who Daniel's companions were the Talmud says that they were the prophets Chagai, Zecharyah and Malachi. The Talmud adds that in some respects Daniel was greater than those prophets, whereas in other respects they were superior to him. Their superiority consisted in the fact that they were prophets, whereas he was not. On the other hand, he was superior in having had the vision, whereas they did not.
