Daniel 1:14

1:14 So the warden ¹  agreed to their proposal ²  and tested them for ten ³  days.

[1:14]  ¹ tn Heb “he”; the referent (the warden mentioned in v. 11) has been specified in the translation for clarity.

[1:14]  ² tn Heb “listened to them with regard to this matter.”

[1:14]  ³ sn The number ten is sometimes used in the OT as an ideal number of completeness. Cf. v. 20; Zech 8:23; Rev 2:10.
