Daniel 2:47-49 - The king said to Daniel, "Surely your God is the God of gods and the Lord of kings and a revealer of mysteries, for you were able to reveal this mystery."
Then the king placed Daniel in a high position and lavished many gifts on him. He made him ruler over the entire province of Babylon and placed him in charge of all its wise men. Moreover, at Daniel's request the king appointed Shadrach, Meshach and Abednego administrators over the province of Babylon, while Daniel himself remained at the royal court.
I wonder if Nebuchadnezzar had forgotten his dream or if he had just refused to tell it as a test of his wise men. In any case, he seems to have recognized Daniel's retelling of the dream as the same one that he had had a few nights before.
I wonder what kinds of gifts the king gave Daniel.
I wonder if Daniel still went through the rest of his training on schedule over the next one to two years. He probably still had a lot to learn if he was going to complete his duties satisfactorily.
