“And at the end of ten days their countenances appeared fairer and fatter in flesh than all the children which did eat the portion of the king's meat.”
Daniel 1:15 (KJV)
Commentary on Daniel 1:15
The results vindicate faith: 'at the end of ten days their countenances appeared fairer and fatter in flesh than all the children which did eat the portion of the king's meat.' God honored obedience with observable superiority—not merely equality but superior health. This demonstrates a consistent biblical principle: God's ways, though they may seem restrictive, produce better outcomes than worldly alternatives. The comparison 'than all' emphasizes complete vindication; no Babylonian-diet youth matched the Hebrew-diet group.
