Daniel 2:23 — Meaning and Application

And he changeth the times and the seasons: he removeth kings, and setteth up kings: he giveth wisdom unto the wise, and knowledge to them that know understanding:

He revealeth the deep and secret things: he knoweth what {is} in the darkness, and the light dwelleth with him.

I thank thee, and praise thee, O thou God of my fathers, who hast given me wisdom and might, and hast made known unto me now what we desired of thee: for thou hast {now} made known unto us the king's matter.

Therefore Daniel went in unto Arioch, whom the king had ordained to destroy the wise {men} of Babylon: he went and said thus unto him; Destroy not the wise {men} of Babylon: bring me in before the king, and I will shew unto the king the interpretation.

Then Arioch brought in Daniel before the king in haste, and said thus unto him, I have found a man of the captives of Judah, that will make known unto the king the interpretation. {I have...: Chaldee, That I have found} {captives...: Chaldee, children of the captivity of Judah}
