Daniele 2:25 Meaning and Commentary

Daniel 2:25

Then Arioch brought in Daniel before the king in haste
As knowing how impatient the king was to have his dream, and the interpretation of it, told him; and how pleasing this would be to him, and be a means of ingratiating and establishing him in his affections, as well as for the sake of saving the lives of the wise men: and said thus unto him, I have found a man of the captives of Judah:
as if he had made it his business to inquire after a man capable of answering the king's demands; whereas he sought after Daniel at first, not for this purpose, but to destroy him; and now Daniel made his application to him for introduction to the king, and was not looked after by Arioch; but he here did as courtiers do, make the most of everything to their own advantage, to insinuate themselves into the favour of princes: it looks by this as if Arioch did not know of Daniel's having been with the king before, and of the promise he had made him; that granting him time, he would satisfy him in the matter requested, which he was now ready to do, as he had told Arioch; and therefore he adds, that will make known unto the king the interpretation;
that is, of his dream.

Daniele 2:25 In-Context

23 O Dio de’ miei padri, io ti rendo gloria, e lode, che tu mi hai data sapienza, e forza; e mi hai ora dichiarato quel che noi ti abbiam domandato, avendoci fatto assapere ciò che il re richiede.
24 Per tanto, Daniele entrò da Arioc, al quale, il re avea data commissione di far morire i savi di Babilonia; e andò, e gli disse così: Non far morire i savi di Babilonia; menami davanti al re, ed io gli dichiarerò l’interpretazione del sogno.
25 Allora Arioc menò prestamente Daniele davanti al re, e gli disse così: Io ho trovato un uomo, d’infra i Giudei, che sono in cattività, il quale dichiarerà al re l’interpretazione del suo sogno.
26 Il re prese a dire a Daniele, il cui nome era Beltsasar: Mi puoi tu dichiarare il sogno, che io ho veduto, e la sua interpretazione?
27 Daniele rispose davanti al re, e disse: Il segreto, che il re domanda, nè savi, nè astrologi, nè magi, nè indovini, non possono dichiararlo al re.
