What Does Daniel 6:24 Mean At the command of the king• “At the command of the king” shows that God has turned Darius’s heart (Proverbs 21:1), moving him from coerced participant to active agent of justice. • Though Persian law was considered unchangeable (Daniel 6:8), the king finds a lawful path to reverse the injustice, proving that no human statute can thwart God’s purposes (Acts 5:39). • Earthly rulers bear responsibility to punish evildoers (Romans 13:3-4), and Darius now fulfills that role. the men who had falsely accused Daniel • These officials fabricated charges to eliminate Daniel (Daniel 6:4-5). False witness is detestable to the Lord (Proverbs 6:16-19). • God exposes deceit and defends the innocent (Psalm 7:14-16; Deuteronomy 19:18-19). • Their fate illustrates the principle of poetic justice: “The trouble they cause recoils on them” (Psalm 57:6). were brought and thrown into the den of lions • The same punishment they plotted becomes their own (Galatians 6:7). • Daniel’s earlier deliverance was not due to docile lions; this event proves the miracle (Daniel 6:22-24). • A similar role reversal occurs when Haman is hanged on the gallows he built for Mordecai (Esther 7:9-10). they and their children and wives • Persian custom often executed a traitor’s family to prevent retaliation; Scripture reports the fact without endorsing it. • God’s law for Israel forbade punishing children for a parent’s sin (Deuteronomy 24:16), revealing a higher moral standard. • Sin’s fallout reaches loved ones (Joshua 7:24-25), underscoring the seriousness of conspiring against God’s people. And before they had reached the bottom of the den • The swiftness of judgment proves the lions were ravenous, not satiated (Daniel 6:22). • Visible, immediate destruction removes any doubt about Daniel’s supernatural rescue. • It previews the suddenness of final judgment on the ungodly (Luke 17:26-30; Hebrews 10:27). the lions overpowered them and crushed all their bones • “Overpowered” and “crushed all their bones” depict total, literal destruction, fulfilling “Evil will slay the wicked” (Psalm 34:21). • God lifts the restraint He had placed for Daniel, showing He alone controls nature’s predators (Job 38:39-41). • The scene foreshadows ultimate recompense for those who oppose God’s people (2 Thessalonians 1:6-9; Revelation 20:15). summary Daniel 6:24 records the complete reversal engineered by God: the plotters meet the fate intended for His servant. The verse showcases God’s sovereignty, the certainty of divine justice, and the peril of opposing the faithful. What God delivers from, He can also employ as an instrument of judgment, affirming that righteousness is rewarded and wickedness punished in His perfect timing. Verse 24. - And the king commanded, and they brought those men which had accused Daniel, and they cast them into the den of lions, them, their children, and their wives; and the lions had the mastery of them. and brake all their bones in pieces or ever they came at the bottom of the den. Here the Septuagint text is superior to the Massoretic, as briefer, "Then those two men who had berne witness against Daniel, they, their wives, and their children, were east to the lions, and the lions slew them, and brake their bones." In this account of the punishment meted out to the accusers of Daniel, the victims are only two, with their wives and children. Hitzig contemptuously remarks that the lions' den must have been large to contain a hundred and twenty-two men along with their families - that number he gets by adding to the governors of the provinces the two presidents,colleagues of Daniel. If, however, we assume the Septuagint text to be correct, then this objection falls to the ground. The phrase "or ever they came at the bottom of the den," is an intensification of the narrative. In the Massoretic text it is "all their bones;" in the LXX. it is simply "their bones." Theodotion and the Peshitta agree with the Massoretic text. The slaughter of the wives and children of offenders, with the guilty persons themselves, was the common practice. There are two other accounts of this event - one preserved in the apocryphal story of Bel and the Dragon, and the other in the pages of Josephus. According to the story of Bel and the Dragon, the king, who thus condemns Daniel, is no less a person than Cyrus the great conqueror. The reason of the condemnation is not a decree forbidding all worship, but because Daniel had laid bare the deceit of the priests of Bel, and killed the sacred dragon, the people of Babylon were incensed, and threatened Cyrus that they would burn his house if he did not deliver Daniel into their hands to be cast into the lions' den. The seven lions were starved in order that they might be sure to devour Daniel. For six days he was there in the den. In order that Daniel might not starve, whatever befell the lions, Habacuc was brought from Judaea, carried by the hair of his head, to feed the prophet. The destruction of Daniel's accusers is stated in a mere compendious fashion. The fact that this version is referred to by Irenaeus ('Adv. Haeres.,' 4.), Tertullian ('De Jejuniis,' 7.), and Clement of Alexandria ('Strom.,' 1. p. 329, Morel), shows that early in the second century this narrative was incorporated with the canonical Daniel. This makes it almost necessarily before Christ in the date of its origin. If so, it is difficult to imagine the canonical version to be only a century and a half older. Josephus shows no signs that he knew of this apocryphal addition, but adds a feature for himself, "The enemies of Daniel, when they saw that nothing evil had befallen him, unwilling to attribute his deliverance to Deity and his providence, declared that the lions had been filled with food, and therefore neither attacked Daniel nor approached him, and maintained this to the king. But he, hating their malice, ordered that much flesh be thrown to the lions, and when they had gorged themselves, that the enemies of Daniel be cast into the den, in order that he might learn whether the lions would spare them on account of their being satisfied. It was then manifest to Darius, when the satraps had been thrown in, that Daniel had been preserved by miracle, for the lions spared none of them, but tore them all to pieces as if they had been famishing."Parallel Commentaries ...
