The Bible Says
但以理书 5:29-31 含义

尽管听说他的王国即将灭亡,伯沙撒仍然信守诺言。这又是一个讽刺。这位傲慢的国王并没有拒绝这个不受欢迎的消息。也许他希望通过承认上帝,他可以免受审判。他下令对任何能解释墙上文字的人履行承诺的奖励,这个人就是但以理。所以但以理穿着紫色衣服脖子上戴着金项链。在解释文字之前,但以理拒绝了这些奖励,但无论他的喜好如何,这些奖励都赐予了他。

伯沙撒命令其他仆人将礼物送给但以理。除了华丽的衣服和珠宝外,伯沙撒还通过一项公告授予但以理作为王国第三位统治者的权力。这将是短暂的,因为现在很明显上帝会把巴比伦交给米底人和波斯人。不过,这与但以理的职业生涯是一致的。他在巴比伦的一生都以他向国王解释上帝启示的天赋而闻名,每次都得到提拔和赞扬。

这次新的晋升,是所有权力中最迅速的一次,在巴比伦却是短暂的。上帝的信息是及时和真实的,因为当晚迦勒底王伯沙撒就被杀了。米底和波斯军队占领了巴比伦城,伯沙撒在征服中立即被杀。

伯沙撒死后,玛代人大流士继承了王国。这段文字以权力的过渡结束。尽管但以理在巴比伦王国的崛起时间很短,但下一章以但以理的高位开篇。当波斯人从城墙下攻占这座城市时,很少有人丧命。几乎整个城市都被占领了。我们可以想象大流士采访国王和他的贵族,他们恰好聚集在一起,并了解到但以理预言巴比伦将被玛代人和波斯人攻占的故事。因此,尽管但以理作为第三位统治者的统治时间很短,但这可能使他在大流士的政府中一跃成为显赫人物。

丹尼尔幸存下来,继续在巴比伦服务,同时仍然忠于他的上帝。他是异乡的陌生人-生活在这个世界,却不属于这个世界。
