The term son in Daniel
Hello! In Daniel 5 we are told that Belshazzar is the son of Nebuchadnezzar but historically Belshazzar's father is Nabonidus. Apologetics explains that in Semitic language the term son can mean successor or grandson. There is a theory that Nabonidus married one of Nebuchadnezzar's daughters, making Belshazzar his grandson. Could this reconcile the text?
