NET Notes

¹tn Heb “said.” So also in v. 12.

²tn Heb “Chaldeans.” The term Chaldeans (Hebrew כַּשְׂדִּים, kasdim) is used in the book of Daniel both in an ethnic sense and, as here, to refer to a caste of Babylonian wise men and astrologers.

³tn Heb “to explain to the king his dreams.”

⁴tn Heb “stood before the king.”
