On this verse

Draft selections — awaiting the founder’s edit.

We found, before, that Daniel, though now but a young man, was celebrated for his prevalency in prayer, ch. xiv. Here we find he was famous for his prudence in the management of the affairs of this world, a great scholar and statesman, and withal a great saint, and yet not a prince, but a poor captive.

Matthew Henry· Commentary on the Whole Bible, 1710puritan

Ezekiel ironically alludes to Ithbaal's overweening opinion of the wisdom of himself and the Tyrians, as though superior to that of Daniel, whose fame had reached even Tyre as eclipsing the Chaldean sages. "Thou art wiser," namely, in thine own opinion (Zec 9:2). no secret--namely, forgetting riches (Eze 28:4). that they can hide--that is, that can be hidden.
