The name reflects the Babylonian practice of renaming captives to assimilate them into their culture and religion. The name signifies a request for protection from the Babylonian god Bel (Marduk).<p><span class="tophdg">Cultural and Historical Background: </span>The name Belteshazzar was given to Daniel during the Babylonian exile, a period when the Kingdom of Judah was conquered by Babylon, and many Jews were taken captive. This renaming was part of a broader strategy by the Babylonians to integrate the captives into their society, often by changing their names to honor Babylonian deities. Daniel, however, remained faithful to the God of Israel despite his new name and the pressures to conform to Babylonian culture.<div class="vheading2">NAS Exhaustive Concordance</div><span class="hdg">Word Origin</span><br>of foreign origin<br><span class="hdg">Definition</span><br>Bab. name of Daniel<br><span class="hdg">NASB Translation</span><br>Belteshazzar (2).<p><div align="center"><span class="smalltext"><iframe width="100%" height="85" scrolling=no src="/nasec.htm" frameborder=0 cellpadding=0></iframe></span></div><div class="vheading2">Brown-Driver-Briggs</div> <font class="hebrew2">בֵּלְטְשַׁאצַּר</font> <font size="+1" color="#552200"><b>proper name, masculine</b></font> <a href="/interlinear/daniel/1-7.htm">Daniel 1:7</a>, <font class="hebrew2">בֵּלְטְאשַׁצַּ֑ר</font> <a href="/interlinear/daniel/10-1.htm">Daniel 10:1</a> (probably = Babylonian <i><em>balâtƒu-uƒur</em></i>, <em>protect his life!</em> COT <a href="/interlinear/daniel/1-7.htm">Daniel 1:7</a> Dl in BD<sup>Dn. p. ix</sup>;
