Daniel 9:6
Context9:6 We have not paid attention to your servants the prophets, who spoke by your authority 1 to our kings, our leaders, and our ancestors, 2 and to all the inhabitants 3 of the land as well.
Daniel 11:37-38
Context11:37 He will not respect 4 the gods of his fathers – not even the god loved by women. 5 He will not respect any god; he will elevate himself above them all. 11:38 What he will honor is a god of fortresses – a god his fathers did not acknowledge he will honor with gold, silver, valuable stones, and treasured commodities.


[9:6] 1 tn Heb “in your name.” Another option is to translate, “as your representatives.”
[9:6] 2 tn Heb “our fathers” (also in vv. 8, 16). The Hebrew term translated “father” can refer to more distant relationships such as grandfathers or ancestors.
[11:37] 5 tn Heb “[the one] desired by women.” The referent has been specified in the translation for clarity.
