Daniel 6:8 Meaning and Commentary

Daniel 6:8

Now, O king, establish the decree, and sign the writing
For they had not only agreed upon it among themselves what to propose, as to the substance of it; but they had drawn it up in writing, ready to be signed, which they urge to have done immediately: that it be not changed, according to the law of the Medes and Persians,
which altereth not;
when once signed by the king: mention being made of both the Medes and Persians, shows that these two nations were now united in one government; that Darius and Cyrus were partners in the empire; and it is easy to account for it why the Medes are mentioned first; because Darius was the Mede, and Cyrus the Persian; the one the uncle, the other the nephew; but afterwards, when a Persian only was on the throne, then the Persian is mentioned first, ( Esther 1:19 ) .

Daniel 6:8 In-Context

6 E assim os supervisores e os sátrapas, de comum acordo, foram falar com o rei: “Ó rei Dario, vive para sempre!
7 Todos os supervisores reais, os prefeitos, os sátrapas, os conselheiros e os governadores concordaram em que o rei deve emitir um decreto ordenando que todo aquele que orar a qualquer deus ou a qualquer homem nos próximos trinta dias, exceto a ti, ó rei, seja atirado na cova dos leões.
8 Agora, ó rei, emite o decreto e assina-o para que não seja alterado, conforme a lei dos medos e dos persas, que não pode ser revogada”.
9 E o rei Dario assinou o decreto.
10 Quando Daniel soube que o decreto tinha sido publicado, foi para casa, para o seu quarto, no andar de cima, cujas janelas davam para Jerusalém e ali fez o que costumava fazer: três vezes por dia ele se ajoelhava e orava, agradecendo ao seu Deus.
