What is the meaning of "Nevazbeyasach l'Acharan Hav"?
Rashi: Give your gifts to someone else.
Why did he say to give the gifts to someone else? This is like despising his gifts!
Malbim: The king said that Daniel will rule over a third of the kingdom. Daniel said that the king should rule over all of it! If you want to squander much wealth, give it to others, for I will not do something that deserves such reward. I will read the letters - this is simple for one who knows the forms of the letters in the style they are written. The explanation is simple and clear; such gifts are not proper for a small matter like this 1 . Also, I am obligated to inform the king about a matter that pertains to him, without reward!
