Daniel 2:13
Daniel and his fellows — Daniel and his fellows were not called, because of their youth, which the Chaldeans despised. Here it is observable: The magicians confessed, that knowledge and revelation must come from God, and therefore what Daniel did, was not of any human strength. That the Lord held the governor's hands, so that he did not slay Daniel presently with the first. That Daniel by his prudence and piety, saved all the magicians lives. |
Daniel 2:13
And the decree went forth that the wise [men] should be slain; and they (i) sought Daniel and his fellows to be slain.
(i) Which declares that God would not have his servant united in the company of these sorcerers and astrologers, whose arts were wicked, and therefore justly ought to die, even though the king did it upon a rage and not from zeal. |

The posts went out, being hastened by the king's commandment, and the decree was given in Shushan the palace. And the king and Haman sat down to drink; but the city Shushan was perplexed.
Psalms 94:20 Shall the throne of iniquity have fellowship with thee, which frameth mischief by a law?

The king answered and said, The thing [is] true, according to the law of the Medes and Persians, which altereth not.
