At Ill-si ho made only a simple re quest. It was not political strategy; his action* were not planned to catch the eyes of the king. The first emotion of his heart was loyalty lo God; this led to his resolution. Daniel did not Irille with God or his conscience. They changed his naiile, but could not change Ills mil ore. "Would not iletilo himself." 'J'he Hebrew* who ate with out restriction ai .Nebuchadnezzar's mine count not but delile himself.

He does not posi tively refuse the favor which J)ani<.l seeks. This appeal hy Ashpenaz was very persuasive; and while Daniel did not wish to imperil the life of his ben efactor, yet he felt that it was safe to do right and that God w<?ujd deliver t hem. 11. "Sfeizar." This is not a proper name, but should be read "the noi/ar," the chief butler, or steward, the one who had Charge of their food. 1-. "Prove." Test us; experiment for a short time ami watch tin* result. "Give us pulse." A vegetable diet, with water instead ol wine. 1:5. "Then deal with thy servants." These words were spoken with quiet coniideltce as to the result. A number of other boys besides these four were undergoing the same training. A litit' test, I <> place these \oiin? abstainers beside those who partook of 'the royal bamiuets, and see which company pre sented the most vigorous appearance. J I. "Ten days." This wou.d afford ample time to show the otl'oct of steady, good food on their health. Daniel had strong faith in God. ami he fell sure that lie ami his companions would present tiie best appearance, lo. "Fairer and falter." The complex ion was healthier and clearer. God meant that if a man would Im* intem perate he should himself proclaim it to the world. The glutton, the drunkard, the debauchee, carry the stamp of f heir deeds upon their features. A depraved character corrupts the Hesh thai car ries it. IV. Honored by God and man (vs. 17 "to. 17. "God gave them knowU edge," etc. 1.

"In all learn ing." "In science, astronomy, litera ture. philosophy, the Chaldeans stood at this time at the head of the world. They had the beginnings of chemistry and even of the telescope." "In all visions," etc. God gave a double por tion to Daniel. He was endued with a prophetical spirit, by which he was en abled to converse with God and to re ceive tin? notices of divine things itt dreams and visions. Visions were rev* elations to the prophets when awake, and dreams when asleep, (lod thus made one of the despised covenant people cclip-e the Chaldean sages in the very science on which they mo-t prided theniseives.
