Exegesis
The narrative begins with the vav-consecutive veyasem {וְיָשֵׂ֣ם | wə·yā·śēm} ‘and he will set’, indicating a resolute action.
In context — Daniel 11:17
And he will set his face to come with the strength of his whole kingdom, and equitable terms will be with him; and he will carry them out. And he will give the daughter of women to him for destruction , but it will not stand, and it will not be for him.
