Event

Darius sets one hundred twenty local governors and three presidents, and Daniel, one of the presidents, is distinguished above them

다리오가 방백 일백 이십명과 총리 셋을 두고 총리 중 하나인 다니엘이 뛰어남

Daniel 6:1–3: it pleases Darius to set over the kingdom one hundred twenty local governors, who should be throughout the whole kingdom; and over them three presidents, of whom Daniel was one, “that these local governors might give account to them, and that the king should suffer no loss.” Then this Daniel is distinguished above the presidents and the local governors, because an excellent spirit was in him; and the king thought to set him over the whole realm. The Korean Revised Version says at 6:1 that Darius set the local governors according to his own will (자기의 심원대로); at 6:3 it reads 마음이 민첩하여 (a quick mind) where WEB reads “because an excellent spirit was in him”, and says that the king wished to set Daniel to rule the whole land (그를 세워 전국을 다스리게 하고자 한지라).
