- Daniel had understanding:
- or, he made Daniel understand, "O Belteshazzar,ª masterª of the magicians,ª because¹ Iª knowª° that¹ the spiritª of the holyª godsª [is] in thee, and noªª secretª troublethª° thee, tellª° me the visionsª of my dreamª that¹ I have seen,ª° and the interpretationª thereof. ... Thus [were] the visionsª of mine headª inª my bed;ª I saw,ªª°° and beholdª a treeª in the midstª of the earth,ª and the heightª thereof [was] great.ª" {Dan 4:9-10} + "There isª a manª in thy kingdom,ª in whom¹ [is] the spiritª of the holyª gods;ª and in the daysª of thy fatherª lightª and understandingª and wisdom,ª like the wisdomª of the gods,ª was foundª° in him; whom the kingª Nebuchadnezzarª thy father,ª the king,ª [I say], thy father,ª madeª° masterª of the magicians,ª astrologers,ª Chaldeans,ª [and] soothsayers;ª° ... Forasmuch asªª¹ an excellentª spirit,ª and knowledge,ª and understanding,ª interpreting²°¹ of dreams,ª and shewingª of hard sentences,ª and dissolvingª° of doubts,ª were foundª° in the same Daniel,ª whom¹ the kingª namedªª° Belteshazzar:ª nowª let Danielª be called,ª° and he will shewª° the interpretation.ª" {Dan 5:11-12} + "I have even heardª° of¹ thee, that¹ the spiritª of the godsª [is] in thee,² and [that] lightª and understandingª and excellentª wisdomª is foundª° in thee." {Dan 5:14} + "In the thirdª yearª of Cyrusª kingª of Persiaª a thingª was revealedª° unto Daniel,ª whose¹ nameª was calledª° Belteshazzar;ª and the thingª [was] true,ª but the time appointedª [was] long:ª and he understoodª°¹ the thing,ª and had understandingª of the vision.ª" {Dan 10:1} + "And it came to pass¹ in the morningª that his spiritª was troubled;ª° and he sentª° and called²° for¹¹ all¹ the magiciansª of Egypt,ª and all¹ the wise menª thereof: and Pharaohª toldª° them¹ his dream;ª but [there was] none¹ that could interpretª° them unto Pharaoh.ª ... And Pharaohª saidª° unto¹ Joseph,ª I have dreamedª° a dream,ª and [there is] none¹ that can interpretª° it: and I¹ have heardª° sayª° of¹ thee, [that] thou canst understandª° a dreamª to interpretª° it." {Gen 41:8-15} + "And he said,ª° Hearª° now¹ my words:ª If¹ there be¹ a prophetª among you, [I] the LORDª will make myself knownª° unto¹ him in a vision,ª [and] will speakª° unto him in a dream.ª" {Num 12:6} + "And he soughtª°¹ Godª in the daysª of Zechariah,ª who had understandingª° in the visionsª° of God:ª and as long asª he soughtª°¹ the LORD,ª Godª made him to prosper.ª°" {2Ch 26:5} + "Behold,¹ thou¹ [art] wiserª than Daniel;ª¹ there is no¹ secretª° that they can hideª° from thee:" {Ezk 28:3} + "Butª the¹ manifestationª of the¹ Spiritª is givenª° to every manª toª profit¹ withal.²° ... Butª allª theseª workethª° that oneª andª the¹ selfsameª Spirit,ª dividingª° to every manª severallyª asª he will.ª°" {1Co 12:7-11}
