Yehezkiel 14:20

14:20 Even if Noah, Daniel, and Job were in it, as surely as I live, declares the sovereign Lord, they could not save their own son or daughter; they would save only their own lives by their righteousness.

Yehezkiel 28:3

28:3 Look, you are wiser than Daniel; ¹ 

no secret is hidden from you. ² 

Daniel 1:6

1:6 As it turned out, ³  among these young men ⁴  were some from Judah: ⁵  Daniel, Hananiah, Mishael, and Azariah. ⁶ 

[28:3]  ¹ sn Or perhaps “Danel” (so TEV), referring to a ruler known from Canaanite legend. See the note on “Daniel” in 14:14. A reference to Danel (preserved in legend at Ugarit, near the northern end of the Phoenician coast) makes more sense here when addressing Tyre than in 14:14.

[28:3]  ² sn The tone here is sarcastic, reflecting the ruler’s view of himself.

[1:6]  ³ tn Heb “and it happened that.”

[1:6]  ⁴ tn Heb “among them”; the referent (the young men taken captive from Judah) has been specified in the translation for clarity.

[1:6]  ⁵ tn Heb “the sons of Judah.”

[1:6]  ⁶ sn The names reflect a Jewish heritage. In Hebrew Daniel means “God is my judge”; Hananiah means “the Lord is gracious”; Mishael means “who is what God is?”; Azariah means “the Lord has helped.”
