SRB26 unga män utan defekter som såg bra ut, de skulle kunna tillägna sig all slags visdom, vara kloka och förståndiga, och vara dugliga att tjäna vid kungens hov, och som de skulle kunna undervisa i kaldeernas litteratur och språk.

SKB De skulle inte ha någon kroppslig defekt [vara i god fysisk hälsa] och vara vackra att se på. De skulle kunna tillägna sig all slags lärdom, vara kloka, ha lätt för att lära och vara dugliga till att tjäna i kungens palats. De skulle få undervisning i kaldéernas språk [kilskriftsspråket akkadiska som används på lertavlor och arameiska som var det nya världsspråket] och litteratur. [Daniel och hans vänner var av kunglig släkt och hade växt upp i Jerusalem. De var i yngre tonåren när de tillfångatogs och deporterades till Babylon, en resa på 150 mil som tog 3-4 månader till fots med karavan. Historiska dokument visar att åldern för högre utbildning var 14 år i Babylon. Beskrivningen av Daniels långa liv i Babylon bekräftar att han måste ha varit ung när han fördes bort, se Dan 1:21. Väl framme i Babylon kan Daniel och hans vänner ha blivit kastrerade. Det som talar för det är att detta var vanligt bland kungens tjänare vid den här tiden. Det nämns heller aldrig att Daniel gifte sig och fick några barn. I Jesajas profetia, som skrevs 100 år före dessa händelser, varnar han för att kärlen skulle plundras och ättlingar till kungahuset föras bort och bli eunucker i Babylon, se 2 Kung 20:12-17. I Jesaja 56, som rör återvändande judar, tas just eunucker utan barn upp som en speciell grupp, se Jes 56:3-5. Dessa bibliska referenser har gjort att denna uppfattning är vanlig inom judendomen. Det som talar emot är att det inte uttryckligen nämns att Daniel blev kastrerad. De skulle vara ”utan defekt”, se vers 4, vilket tvärtom kan tala för att de inte var kastrerade. Ordet för eunuck (hebr. saris) har flera betydelser. Det kan betyda kastrerad man, men också högt uppsatt ledare. Potifar i Egypten var en saris som var gift, se 1 Mos 37:36; Matt 19:12; Apg 8:27; Jes 56:3-6.]
