Commentary on Daniel 3:30

Theological / Devotional

Promoted. The verb form thus translated means primarily “to cause to prosper,” and in a wider sense “to promote.” How this promotion was effected is not stated. The three worthies may have received money, or more influence and power in the administration of the province, or more elevated titles. By faithfulness in the face of death the three Hebrew worthies had demonstrated qualities of character that made it evident that they could be trusted with even greater responsibilities than they had previously home.
