Daniel 2:7
"They answered again and said, Let the king tell his servants the dream, and we will shew the interpretation of it."

Commentary

Gill's Exposition

They answered again, and said,.... Or, a "second" (e) time; repeating the same words, having nothing more to say: let the king tell his servants the dream, and we will

show the interpretation thereof; the first part was but right and reasonable, though the latter was mere boasting and arrogancy. (e) Sept.; "secundo", Pagninus, Montanus, Junius & Tremellius, Piscator; so Ar.
