# Daniel 5 General Notes
|
||||
|
||||
### Special concepts in this chapter
|
||||
|
||||
#### The writing on the wall
|
||||
|
||||
God told the new king that he had failed and God was replacing him, showing that God is the real ruler over everything, even kingdoms that do not worship him.
|
||||
|
||||
### Other possible translation difficulties in this chapter
|
||||
#### Mene, Mene, Tekel, Upharsin
|
||||
These are words in Aramaic. Daniel "transliterates" these words by writing them with Hebrew letters, and then he explains their meanings. In the ULB and UDB they are written with English letters. Translators are encouraged to write them using the letters of the target language alphabet.

### Structure and formatting
|

|

|
||||
#### Daniel and the lions
|
||||
|
||||
Daniel was thrown into the lions' den for praying to Yahweh, but Yahweh protected him and the lions did not hurt him at all.

# the hair of his head was like pure wool

Something about God's hair looked like pure wool. Possible meanings are that 1) it was very white or 2) it was thick and curly. (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/jit/figs-simile]])

Possible meanings are that 1) it was very white or 2) it was thick and curly.

"clean wool" or "wool that is washed"

# His throne was flames ... its wheels were burning fire
|
||||
|
||||
This describes the throne of God and its wheels as if they were made of fire. The words "flames" and "burning fire" mean basically the same thing and can be translated the same way.
|
||||
|
||||
# its wheels
|
||||
|
||||
It is unclear why God's throne is described as having wheels. Thrones normally do not have wheels, but the text clearly states that this throne has some kind of wheels. Use a general term for "wheels" if possible.

### Structure and formatting
|
||||
Some translations set poetry farther to the right than the rest of the text to show that it is poetry. The ULB does this with the poetry in 7:9-10, 13-14, and 23-27.
|
||||
|
||||
### Special concepts in this chapter
|
||||
#### The four beasts
|
||||
|
||||
There will be four successive kingdoms before Yahweh sets up his eternal kingdom. (See: [[rc://en/tw/dict/bible/kt/eternity]])
|
||||
|
||||
#### The Son of Man
|
||||
|
||||
God will give the Son of Man an eternal kingdom and he will judge people from the books. (See: [[rc://en/tw/dict/bible/kt/sonofman]] and [[rc://en/tw/dict/bible/kt/judge]])
