illumination, insight, light; intellectual brilliance and understanding
This Aramaic feminine noun appears in Daniel's description of Daniel's extraordinary wisdom. King Nebuchadnezzar (and later the queen mother) testifies that Daniel possesses illumination—intellectual light beyond normal human understanding—along with wisdom and insight comparable to divine knowledge. The term evokes both literal light and metaphorical enlightenment, suggesting Daniel's mind was illuminated by divine revelation, enabling him to understand mysteries hidden from others.

1. sense 1 — Occurs in Daniel 5:11 and 5:14, both describing Daniel's exceptional qualities.

In both passages it appears alongside wisdom and understanding, forming a triad of exceptional intellectual-spiritual qualities. 2×
