Daniel 8:18
Now as he was speaking with me, I was in a deep sleep on my face toward the ground: but he touched me, and set me upright.
Cross-reference
Daniel 8:17 records the initial terrified fall that leads directly into the deep sleep and touch here — sequential narrative connection.
In Daniel 8:27, the vision leaves Daniel sick and appalled, showing that the touch in 8:18 provided only temporary relief.
In Daniel 10:8, Daniel loses all strength and his appearance changes, paralleling the physical collapse of deep sleep in 8:18 — both overwhelming visionary experiences.
In Daniel 10:9, Daniel again falls into a deep sleep with face to the ground — nearly identical phrasing, reinforcing the pattern of visionary encounters.
In Daniel 10:10, a hand touches and sets Daniel trembling on hands and knees — similar angelic touch after collapse, but here not fully restored.
In Daniel 10:18, another angel touches and strengthens Daniel just as here. Both scenes show divine touch reviving the prostrate prophet.
In Daniel 9:21, Gabriel again touches Daniel at the time of evening sacrifice, mirroring the angelic touch that raises him from deep sleep here.

In Job 4:13, deep sleep falls during visions of the night — matching Daniel's experience of deep sleep in a vision.
