Barnes' Notes on Daniel 6:27

He delivereth and rescueth - As in the case of Daniel. This attribute would of course be prominent in the view of Darius, since so remarkable an instance of his power had been recently manifested in rescuing Daniel.

Whedon's Commentary on Daniel 6:27

25-27. This decree resembles very greatly, even in phrase, some of the speeches made previously to or by Nebuchadnezzar (chaps. ii, iii).
