F. B. Hole's Old and New Testament Commentary - Daniel 6:1-99

Daniel 6 THE MEDO-PERSIAN EMPIRE now became the dominant world power, and Darius became king in Babylon. It appears that historians have difficulty in identifying this man. It may be that he was only a vassal king, under the suzerainty of Cyrus king of Persia; but this is a matter that need not detain us. In the Babylonian section of the new empire he arranged things as he saw fit, and again we find Daniel promoted to a place of great power. The hand of God was in it, though on the human side... read more

The Popular Commentary by Paul E. Kretzmann - Daniel 6:18-28

Daniel's Remarkable Deliverance v. 18. Then the king went to his palace and passed the night fasting, unable to sleep or eat for worry about the fate of Daniel; neither were instruments of music brought before him, rather, "neither were concubines brought to him"; and his sleep went from him, he was in genuine distress, decidedly ill at ease on account of the course into which he had been drawn. v. 19. Then the king arose very early in the morning, with the dawn, as soon as it became light,... read more

Daniel FAITH STOPPING THE MOUTHS OF LIONS Dan_6:16 - Dan_6:28 . Daniel was verging on ninety when this great test of his faithfulness was presented to him. He had been honoured and trusted through all the changes in the kingdom, and, when the Medo-Persian conquest came, the new monarch naturally found in him, as a foreigner, a more reliable minister than in native officials. ‘Envy doth merit as its shade pursue,’ and the crafty trick by which his subordinates tried to procure his fall, was... read more

F.B. Meyer's 'Through the Bible' Commentary - Daniel 6:16-28

“Persecuted for Righteousness’ Sake” Daniel 6:16-28 The plot was an atrocious one, but it hurt its perpetrators more than the victim of their vindictive hatred, Daniel 6:24 . They dug a pit into which they fell themselves. They thought to flatter the king, and secure Daniel’s fall; but their stratagems were like the mines laid at the mouth of a harbor, which are more perilous to those who set them than to others. Still God sends His angels to shut the lions’ mouths, that they may not hurt... read more

G. Campbell Morgan's Exposition on the Whole Bible - Daniel 6:1-28

The last section in the historic portion of the Book is in the reign of Darius. He reorganized the government and distributed the administration among twenty satraps, who, in turn, were responsible to three presidents. Of these Daniel was one, and he was so distinguished by an excellent spirit that Darius proposed to set him over the whole realm. This naturally stirred up jealousy among the other presidents and satraps, who cunningly planned Daniel's downfall. Knowing that they would be... read more

Wells of Living Water Commentary - Daniel 6:1-28

A Man of Affairs Selections from Daniel 6:1-28 INTRODUCTORY WORDS In a previous study, we observed Daniel as a seer. Here we will see him as a man of affairs. As we watch Daniel moving among the great leaders of the Babylonian empire, managing affairs of state with marvelous wisdom, standing head and shoulders above all the men of his day in his moral integrity; we assure ourselves that the seed which produced so great a life was sown in the days of his youth. Daniel, the model youth, was... read more

Peter Pett's Commentary on the Bible - Daniel 6:26-27

‘I make a decree that in all the dominion of my kingdom men tremble and fear before the God of Daniel. For he is the living God, and steadfast for ever, and his kingdom that which shall not be destroyed, and his dominion shall be even to the end. He delivers and rescues and he works signs and wonders in heaven and in earth, who has delivered Daniel from the power of the lions.’ Darius calls on all his peoples to honour the living God of Daniel. Note the contrast between the temporary dominion... read more

Arthur Peake's Commentary on the Bible - Daniel 6:1-28

Daniel 6. Daniel in the Den of Lions.— After giving an account of the reorganisation of the empire by Darius after the fall of Babylon, this chapter describes a conspiracy formed against Daniel by the princes, which resulted in his being thrown into a den of lions for refusing to obey a decree which forbade prayer to God. Daniel is found alive and unhurt the next morning. His accusers are thrown to the lions and instantly devoured. Darius then issues a decree commanding the whole world to... read more

Preacher's Complete Homiletical Commentary - Daniel 6:24-28

HOMILETICSSECT. XXI.—THE JUDGMENT IN BABYLON (Chap. Daniel 6:24-28)The deliverance of Daniel was a signal display of the power of Jehovah and His presence with His people. Even the king, who seemed to have some idea that God might possibly interpose on His servant’s behalf, was probably taken by surprise; like the believers in Mary’s house when Peter, released in answer to their prayer, stood before the door. No sooner was Daniel taken up out of the den than judgment began on his enemies. “The... read more
