1 tn Aram “answered and said.”

2 tn Aram “from the midst of the fire.” For stylistic reasons the words “the midst of” have been left untranslated.

3 tn Aram “in strength.”

4 tn Aram “and thus he was saying.”

5 tn Aram “The king answered and said to Daniel.” This phrase has not been included in the translation for stylistic reasons; it is redundant in English.

6 tn Heb “for your name is called over your city and your people.” See the note on this expression in v 18.

7 sn This chapter begins the final unit in the book of Daniel, consisting of chapters 10-12. The traditional chapter divisions to some extent obscure the relationship of these chapters.

8 tc The LXX has “first.”

sn Cyrus’ third year would have been ca. 536 B.C. Daniel would have been approximately eighty-four years old at this time.

9 tn The meaning of the Hebrew word צָבָא (tsava’) is uncertain in this context. The word most often refers to an army or warfare. It may also mean “hard service,” and many commentators take that to be the sense here (i.e., “the service was great”). The present translation assumes the reference to be to the spiritual conflicts described, for example, in 10:1611:1.
