The passage does not mention anything about the law of Moses or following the God of Abraham.

    Daniel had understanding in all visions and dreams. This means that he had the ability to interpret and understand the meaning behind visions and dreams.

    42 And as the toes of the feet were partly iron and partly clay, so the kingdom shall be partly strong and partly brittle. 43 As you saw the iron mixed with soft clay, so they will mix with one another in marriage, but they will not hold together, just as ____.  Dan. 2:42-43, ESV

    • Law does not mix with grace

    • Condemnation does not mix with forgiveness

    • Iron does not mix with clay

    Correct Answer
    A. Iron does not mix with clay
    Explanation
    The correct answer is "iron does not mix with clay." This is because the passage from Daniel 2:42-43 describes a vision where the toes of a statue were made of a mixture of iron and clay. The interpretation of the vision is that this represents a kingdom that will be partly strong (iron) and partly brittle (clay). The analogy is then made that just as iron does not mix with clay, the different elements within the kingdom will not hold together. Therefore, the correct answer reflects the analogy presented in the passage.

    35 Then the iron, the clay, the bronze, the silver, and the gold, all together were broken in pieces, and became like the chaff of the summer threshing floors; and the wind carried them away, so that not a trace of them could be found. But the stone that struck the image became a great _______ and filled the whole earth. -Dan. 2:35, ESV

    • River

    • Valley

    • Mountain

    Correct Answer
    A. Mountain
    Explanation
    The passage from Daniel 2:35 describes a vision in which a stone strikes an image made of different materials (iron, clay, bronze, silver, and gold) and breaks them into pieces. The broken pieces are then carried away by the wind. However, the stone that struck the image becomes a great mountain and fills the whole earth. This suggests that the correct answer is "mountain" because it is the only option that aligns with the description given in the passage.

    • All the living

    • Usual

    • You

    Correct Answer
    A. All the living
    Explanation
    The given correct answer, "all the living," refers to everyone who is alive. The speaker is stating that they do not have any special wisdom or knowledge, but the mystery has been revealed to them so that they can make it known to the king and help the king understand his own thoughts. The phrase "all the living" emphasizes that this revelation is meant for everyone, not just a select few.

    • A human hand

    • No human hand

    • God

    Correct Answer
    A. No human hand
    Explanation
    In Daniel 2:34, it is stated that a stone was cut out and it struck the image on its feet, breaking them in pieces. The passage specifically mentions that the stone was not cut out by a human hand. This suggests that the stone's origin and the force behind its action were not of human origin. Therefore, the correct answer is "no human hand."

    • The gods

    • Man

    • A magician

    Correct Answer
    A. The gods

    In this passage from the book of Daniel, King Nebuchadnezzar is questioning his counselors about the three men he had thrown into the fire. The counselors confirm that three men were indeed thrown into the fire. However, the king observes that there are actually four men walking in the fire, and they are unharmed. He describes the appearance of the fourth man as being like a son of the gods. This suggests that the correct answer is "the gods."

    Correct Answer

    12 “Test your servants for ten days; let us be given vegetables to eat and water to drink. 13 Then let our appearance and the appearance of the youths who eat the king's food be observed by you, and deal with your servants according to what you see.” 14 So he listened to them in this matter, and tested them for ten days. 15 At the end of ten days it was seen that they were better in appearance and _____ in flesh than all the youths who ate the king's food. 16 So the steward took away their food and the wine they were to drink, and gave them vegetables.  -Daniel 1:12-16, ESV

    • Fatter

    • Leaner

    • Stronger

    Correct Answer
    A. Fatter
    Explanation
    The correct answer is "fatter". In the passage, Daniel and his friends requested to be given vegetables to eat and water to drink instead of the king's food. After being tested for ten days, it was observed that they were better in appearance and fatter in flesh compared to the youths who ate the king's food. This suggests that their choice of a vegetable-based diet resulted in weight gain or a healthier physical condition.
