NETBible

But Daniel made up his mind 1  that he would not defile 2  himself with the royal delicacies or the royal wine. 3  He therefore asked the overseer of the court officials for permission not to defile himself.

NET Notes

tn Heb “placed on his heart.”

tn Or “would not make himself ceremonially unclean”; TEV “become ritually unclean.”

sn Various reasons have been suggested as to why such food would defile Daniel. Perhaps it had to do with violations of Mosaic law with regard to unclean foods, or perhaps it had to do with such food having been offered to idols. Daniel’s practice in this regard is strikingly different from that of Esther, who was able successfully to conceal her Jewish identity.

tn Heb “with the delicacies of the king and with the wine of his drinking.”
