Though Daniel was one of the chief ministers of state, who did
"the king's business" in the palace, (Da 8:27,) yet Belshazzar
seems to have known nothing of him. This shews that he was a
weak and vicious prince, who minded pleasure more than
business, according to the character given him by historians.
He appears to have left the care of public affairs to his
mother, Nitocris, a lady celebrated for her wisdom, who
evidently knew Daniel well, and probably constantly employed
him in the government of the kingdom.
