These words are written in military terms. The prince of the host is Christ. the word to should be against. This Antiochus, inside God 's church, is fighting against Christ.

The world "sacrifice" does not belong to the text of Daniel 8:11, because it is not there in the Hebrew original text. It was added there by the translators and that is why it is italised. Daniel 8:11 should therefore read: "Yea, he magnified himself even to the prince of the host, and by him the daily was taken away, and the place of his sanctuary was cast down."
