Daniel 2:41
Context2:41 In that you were seeing feet and toes 1 partly of wet clay 2 and partly of iron, so this will be a divided kingdom. Some of the strength of iron will be in it, for you saw iron mixed with wet clay. 3
Daniel 2:43
Context2:43 And 4 in that you saw iron mixed with wet clay, so people will be mixed 5 with one another 6 without adhering to one another, just as 7 iron does not mix with clay.
1 tc The LXX lacks “and toes.”
2 tn Aram “potter’s clay.”
3 tn Aram “clay of clay” (also in v. 43).
4 tc The present translation reads the conjunction, with most medieval Hebrew
5 sn The reference to people being mixed is usually understood to refer to intermarriage.
6 tn Aram “with the seed of men.”
7 tc The present translation reads הֵיךְ דִּי (hekh diy) rather than the MT הֵא־כְדִי (he’-khÿdi). It is a case of wrong word division.
