# General Information:
Chapters 7 and 8 were not in chronological order. They happened while Belshazzar was still the king. Chapter 9 now returns to the events of the reign of Darius who became king in chapter 6.
# Ahasuerus ... who had been made king over the kingdom of the Chaldeans
This is background information about who Ahasuerus was. The UDB places this in parentheses to make that clear. (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/jit/writing-background]])
# who had been made king over the kingdom of the Chaldeans
This can be stated in active form. Alternate translation: "who became king over the kingdom of the Chaldeans" or "who conquered the Chaldeans" (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/jit/figs-activepassive]])
