What Does Daniel 6:25 Mean?

In the wake of Daniel's deliverance, King Darius writes a proclamation to all peoples, nations, and languages throughout the earth, opening with a blessing: Peace be multiplied unto you. What he witnessed at the den moves him to address his entire empire.

The miracle has not stayed a private wonder; it overflows into a public testimony carried to every nation. A pagan king becomes a herald of the God of Daniel to peoples of every tongue. There is a quiet foretaste here of how the knowledge of the true God is meant to spread beyond one nation to all the earth, and how God can use even rulers who do not know Him to broadcast His name far and wide.
