And it is a rare thing that the king requireth, and there is none other that can shew it before the king, except the gods, whose dwelling is not with flesh.
A verse can bring hope. Share this message of faith with someone you care about.
Verse 11 is found in chapter 2 of Daniel. The Babylonian wise men acknowledge that the king’s request exceeds their abilities and describe the demand as extraordinarily difficult. Their inability leads to a sentence against all the wise men, including Daniel and his companions. Literarily, the scene pushes the tension to an extreme point so that God’s later intervention cannot be attributed to human skill or coincidence.
