It is part of the mysterious inscription "Mene, Mene, Tekel, Upharsin" that appeared on the wall during King Belshazzar's feast in Babylon. This event is recorded in <a href="/daniel/5-25.htm">Daniel 5:25-28</a>. The term "Mene" is of Aramaic origin and is interpreted by the prophet Daniel as "numbered."<br><br><b>Biblical Account:</b> <br>The account of "Mene" occurs during a lavish banquet hosted by Belshazzar, the last king of Babylon. During the feast, the king and his nobles, wives, and concubines drank from the gold and silver vessels that had been taken from the temple in Jerusalem. As they praised the gods of gold, silver, bronze, iron, wood, and stone, a disembodied hand appeared and wrote on the plaster of the wall. The king was greatly troubled and called for his wise men to interpret the writing, but they were unable to do so.<br><br>Daniel, known for his wisdom and ability to interpret dreams and visions, was summoned. He explained the inscription to the king, stating: "This is the inscription that was written: MENE, MENE, TEKEL, UPHARSIN. This is the interpretation of the message: MENE means that God has numbered the days of your reign and brought it to an end" (<a href="/daniel/5-25.htm">Daniel 5:25-26</a>).<br><br><b>Theological Significance:</b> <br>The term "Mene" signifies the divine judgment and sovereignty of God over earthly kingdoms. It underscores the biblical theme that God is the ultimate authority who determines the rise and fall of rulers and nations. The repetition of "Mene" emphasizes the certainty and imminence of the judgment pronounced upon Belshazzar and his kingdom.<br><br><b>Historical and Cultural Background:</b> <br>The event took place in the 6th century BC, during the height of the Babylonian Empire. Belshazzar was co-regent with his father, Nabonidus, and was in charge of the city of Babylon. The use of sacred vessels from the Jerusalem temple in a pagan feast was an act of desecration, highlighting the king's arrogance and disregard for the God of Israel.<br><br>The writing on the wall and its interpretation by Daniel foreshadowed the fall of Babylon to the Medes and Persians, which occurred that very night. This historical event marked the end of the Neo-Babylonian Empire and the beginning of the Medo-Persian Empire, fulfilling the prophecy of judgment against Babylon.<br><br><b>Linguistic Notes:</b> <br>The word "Mene" is derived from the Aramaic root "m-n-h," meaning "to count" or "to number." In the context of <a href="/bsb/daniel/5.htm">Daniel 5</a>, it conveys the idea that God has counted the days of Belshazzar's reign and decreed its conclusion. The repetition of the word serves to emphasize the certainty and finality of God's judgment.<br><br><b>Application for Believers:</b> <br>The account of "Mene" serves as a sobering reminder of God's omnipotence and the accountability of leaders and nations to divine standards. It encourages believers to trust in God's sovereign control over history and to live in a manner that honors Him, recognizing that all human actions are ultimately subject to His judgment.<a name="hit" id="hit"></a><div class="vheading2">Hitchcock's Bible Names Dictionary</div><span class="encheading">Mene</span><p>who reckons or is counted<a name="smi" id="smi"></a><div class="vheading2">Smith's Bible Dictionary</div><span class="encheading">Mene</span><p>(<i>numbered</i>), the first word of the mysterious inscription written upon the wall of Belshazzar's palace, in which Daniel read the doom of the king and his dynasty.

The writing was explained by Daniel. (see <a href="../b/belshazzar.htm">BELSHAZZAR</a>.) <a name="isb" id="isb"></a><div class="vheading2">International Standard Bible Encyclopedia</div><span class="encheading">MENE, MENE, TEKEL, UPHARSIN</span><p>me'-ne, me'-ne, te'-kel, u-far'-sin, men'-a, men'a, tek'-el, oo-far'-sin (mene' mene' teqel upharcin; Theodotion, Mane, thekel, phares): These are the words that, according to Daniel's reading, were inscribed on the walls of Belshazzar's palace and that caused the great commotion on the occasion of his last feast (<a href="/daniel/5-25.htm">Daniel 5:25</a>). As the only authority that we have for the reading is that of Daniel, it seems but fair that the interpretation of the terms be left to the person who gave us the text. According to his interpretation, there is a double sense to be found in the three different words of the inscription (<a href="/daniel/5-26.htm">Daniel 5:26-28</a>).<br><br>Mene', which, however it is pointed, must be taken from the verb menah (Hebrew manah; Babylonian manu), is said to have indicated that God had numbered (the days of) Belshazzar's kingdom and finished it (or delivered it up). Both of these meanings can be shown to be proper to the menah.<br><br>Teqel, on the contrary, is interpreted as coming from two roots: the first, teqal, "to weigh," and the second, qal, "to be light or wanting" (Hebrew qalal; Babylonian qalalu).<br><br>Perec (or parcin) also is interpreted as coming from two roots: first, perac, "to divide" (Hebrew paras or parash; Babylonian parasu), and the second as denoting the proper name Parac, "Persia." Thus interpreted, the whole story hangs together, makes good sense, and is fully justified by the context and by the language employed. If the original text was in Babylonian, the signs were ambiguous; if they were in Aramaic, the consonants alone were written, and hence, the reading would be doubtful. In either case, the inscription was apparent but not readable, except by Daniel with the aid of God, through whom also the seer was enabled to give the proper interpretation. That Daniel's interpretation was accepted by Belshazzar and the rest shows that the interpretation of the signs was reasonable and convincing when once it had been made. We see, therefore, no good reason for departing from the interpretation that the Book of Daniel gives as the true one.<br><br>As to the interpretation of the inscription, it makes no difference whether the signs represented a mina, a shekel, and two perases, as has been recently suggested by M. Clermont-Ganneau. In this case the meaning was not so apparent, but the puns, the play upon the sounds, were even better. We doubt, however, if it can be shown that teqel means sheqel. On the old Aramaic documents of Egypt and Assyria, it is with one exception spelled sheqel. In the Targum of Onkelos, sheqel is always rendered by cela`; in the Peshitta and Arabic VSS, by mathqal; in the Samaritan Targum, by mathqal (except only perhaps in <a href="/genesis/23-16.htm">Genesis 23:16</a>, where we have ethqel). In the Targum of Onkelos, wherever tiqla' occurs, it translates the Hebrew beqa` (<a href="/genesis/24-22.htm">Genesis 24:22</a> and <a href="/exodus/38-26.htm">Exodus 38:26</a> only). Mene', to be sure, may have meant the mina, and perec, the half-mina. The parash is mentioned in the inscription of Panammu and in an Aramaic inscription on an Assyrian weight. Besides this, it is found in the New Hebrew of the Mishna It is not found, however, in the Targum of Onkelos, nor in Syriac, nor in the Old Testament Hebrew; nor in the sense of half-shekel in the Aramaic papyri. While, then, it may be admitted that Daniel may have read, "A mina, a mina, a shekel, and two half-minas," it is altogether unlikely, and there is certainly no proof that he did. Yet, if he did, his punning interpretations were justified by the usage of ancient oracles and interpreters of signs, and also by the event.<br><br>R.
