Daniel 3:10 Meaning and Commentary

Daniel 3:10

Thou, O king, hast made a decree
According to his own mind and will, and which he had published as such to his subjects: that every man;
let him be who he will, high or low, rich or poor, in whatsoever station or condition: that shall hear the sound of the cornet, flute, harp, sackbut,
psaltery, and dulcimer, and all kinds of music;
such as had been just then blown or played on: shall fall down and worship the golden image;
which the king had ordered to be made and set up, and now dedicated, and had been worshipped by men of all ranks.

Daniel 3:10 In-Context

8 Wherefore at that time certain Kasdim (Chaldeans) came near, and accused the Yehudim.

9 They spoke and said to the king Nevuchadnetzar, O king, live for ever.

10 Thou, O king, hast made a decree, that every man that shall hear the sound of the horn, flute, harp, lyre, psaltery, and pipes, and all kinds of music, shall fall down and worship the golden tzelem;

11 And whoso falleth not down and worshipeth, that he should be cast into the midst of a burning fiery attun (furnace).

12 There are certain Yehudim whom thou hast set over the affairs of the province of Babylon, Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego; these men, O king, have disregarded thee; they serve (pay-lammed-chet, serve as deity) not thy g-ds, nor worship the golden tzelem which thou hast set up.
