Wesley's Notes for Daniel 6:24

6:22 His angel - The same that was with the three children in the fiery furnace, whose presence made even the lion's den a strong - hold, his palace, his paradise. See the power of God over the fiercest creatures! See the care God takes of his faithful servants, especially when they are called to suffer for him! See how ready the angels are to minister to the heirs of salvation!

6:25 In all the earth - In all that great empire. It is usual with the Turk, Tartar, Chinese, to arrogate the same universality.
