Verse 10
Thou, O king, hast made a decree ,.... According to his own mind and will, and which he had published as such to his subjects:
that every man ; let him be who he will, high or low, rich or poor, in whatsoever station or condition:
that shall hear the sound of the cornet, flute, harp, sackbut, psaltery, and dulcimer, and all kinds of music ; such as had been just then blown or played on:
shall fall down and worship the golden image ; which the king had ordered to be made and set up, and now dedicated, and had been worshipped by men of all ranks.
