Keil and Delitzsch Commentary - Daniel 5:11 - 5:11

This Chapter Verse Commentaries:

Her judgment concerning Daniel is that of Nebuchadnezzar, Daniel 4:5-6 (Dan 4:8, Dan 4:9); and that she states it in the same words leads to the conclusion that Nebuchadnezzar was her husband. The מַלְכָּא אֲבוּךְ at the end of this verse may be an emphatic repetition of the foregoing אֲבוּךְ נב מַלְכָּא (Maur., Hitz.), but in that case מַלְכָּא would perhaps stand first. מַלְכָּא is better interpreted by Ros., v. Leng., Klief., and others as the vocative: thy father, O king, by which the words make a greater impression.
