Daniel 6:25 - Forerunner Commentary

Daniel 6:25

23 Now the king was exceedingly glad for him, and commanded that they should take Daniel up out of the den. So Daniel was taken up out of the den, and no injury whatever was found on him, ^abecause he believed in his God.

Darius Honors God

24 And the king gave the command, ^aand they brought those men who had accused Daniel, and they cast them into the den of lions—them, ^btheir children, and their wives; and the lions overpowered them, and broke all their bones in pieces before they ever came to the bottom of the den.

25 ^aThen King Darius wrote: To all peoples, nations, and languages that dwell in all the earth: Peace be multiplied to you.

26 ^aI make a decree that in every dominion of my kingdom men must ^btremble and fear before the God of Daniel.
^cFor He is the living God,
And steadfast forever;
His kingdom is the one which shall not be ^ddestroyed,
And His dominion shall endure to the end.

27 He delivers and rescues,
^aAnd He works signs and wonders
In heaven and on earth,
Who has delivered Daniel from the¹ power of the lions.

28 So this Daniel prospered in the reign of Darius ^aand in the reign of ^bCyrus the Persian.
