Context — The Evaluation of Daniel and His Friendsgenerated
Daniel 1:20 describes how King Nebuchadnezzar assessed the wisdom and understanding of Daniel and his friends after their training. In comparison to all the magicians and enchanters in his kingdom, he found them to be exceptionally superior. This evaluation highlights the divine wisdom bestowed upon them, setting them apart in a foreign land. The context emphasizes God's providence in their lives as they navigate challenges in Babylon, similar to how Joseph was favored in Egypt, as noted in Genesis 41:46.

The Key Word — חָכְמַ֣ת, cha.khe.Matgenerated
The Hebrew word חָכְמָה (chokmah) means wisdom and refers to the ability to make sound decisions and judgments. It encompasses various forms of skill, including practical wisdom in areas such as administration and ethics. This word is foundational in biblical texts, often associated with divine guidance and insight, as seen in Proverbs.
In this verse, wisdom is not merely intellectual knowledge but a profound understanding that allows Daniel and his friends to excel in their roles. The parsing indicates it is a feminine singular construct noun, emphasizing its importance in the context of their evaluation by the king.
How Translations Differ — measured against the Berean Standard Biblegenerated
In the Berean Standard Bible, the phrase 'ten times better' is used, which is consistent across the KJV and ASV.
Sentence Structuregenerated
The verse is structured around the finite verb וַֽיִּמְצָאֵ֞ם, and he found them, which governs the entire clause. The sentence includes several noun phrases detailing what the king found and the comparisons he made.
The arrangement emphasizes the king's discovery, with the main focus on the superiority of Daniel and his friends in wisdom and understanding, as indicated by the prepositional phrases that follow.
Septuagint Backgroundgenerated
The Septuagint uses the Greek term σοφιστὰς for 'magicians,' which indicates a broader interpretation of those with wisdom or skill in the supernatural. This choice suggests a focus on the perceived abilities of these individuals rather than a strict definition of magic.
The translation of חָכְמָה as σοφία in the Septuagint aligns with the understanding of wisdom as a divine attribute, which further emphasizes the exceptional nature of Daniel and his friends.

ov:
(1) In Anglo-Saxon, had the meaning "from," "away from" (as the strengthened form "off" has still), and was not used for genitive or possessive relations, these being expressed by special case-forms. In the Norman period, however, "of" was taken to represent the French de (a use well developed by the time of Chaucer), and in the Elizabethan period both senses of "of" were in common use. But after about 1600 the later force of the word became predominant, and in the earlier sense (which is now practically obsolete) it was replaced by other prepositions. In consequence the King James Version (and in some cases the Revised Version (British and American)) contains many uses of "of" that are no longer familiar--most of them, to be sure, causing no difficulty, but there still being a few responsible for real obscurities.

King
Is in Scripture very generally used to denote one invested with authority, whether extensive or limited. There were thirty-one kings in Canaan (Josh. 12:9, 24), whom Joshua subdued. Adonibezek subdued seventy kings (Judg. 1:7). In the New Testament the Roman emperor is spoken of as a king (1 Pet. 2:13, 17); and Herod Antipas, who was only a tetrarch, is also called a king (Matt. 14:9; Mark 6:22).
This title is applied to God (1 Tim. 1:17), and to Christ, the Son of God (1 Tim. 6:15, 16;
"a chief ruler, one invested with supreme authority over a nation, tribe or country." --Webster. In the Bible the word does not necessarily imply great power or great extent of country. Many persons are called kings whom we should rather call chiefs or leaders. The word is applied in the Bible to God as the sovereign and ruler of the universe, and to Christ the Son of God as the head and governor of the Church. The Hebrews were ruled by a king during a period of about 500 years previous to the destruction of Jerusalem, B.C. 586. The immediate occasion of the substitution of a regal form of government for that of judges seems to have been the siege of Jabesh-gilead by Nahash king of the Ammonites. (1 Samuel 11:1; 12:12) The conviction seems to have forced itself on the Israelites that they could not resist their formidable neighbor…
