C'. (chapter 5) – Daniel interprets the handwriting on the wall for Belshazzar; B'. (chapter 6) – Daniel in the lions' den; A'. (chapter 7) – A vision of four world kingdoms replaced by a fifth; Daniel 5 is thus composed as a companion-piece to Daniel 4, the tale of the madness of Nebuchadnezzar, the two giving variations on a single theme.

The last mention of Daniel in the Book of Daniel is in the third year of Cyrus (Daniel 10:1). Rabbinic sources suppose that he was still alive during the reign of the Persian king Ahasuerus (better known as Artaxerxes – Babylonian Talmud, Megillah 15a, based on the Book of Esther 4, 5), but he was killed by Haman , the wicked prime minister ...
