Allora furono radunati i satrapi, i magistrati, e i duchi, i giudici, i tesorieri, i senatori, i presidenti, e tutti i rettori delle provincie, alla dedicazione della statua, che il re Nebucadnesar avea rizzata. Ed essi erano in piè dinanzi alla statua, che Nebucadnesar avea rizzata.

Gill's Notes on the Bible

Then the princes, the governors, and captains,.... And all the rest of the officers before mentioned, having received their orders from the king, in obedience to them,

were gathered together unto the dedication of the image Nebuchadnezzar the king had set up; at great expense, and with much fatigue and trouble, they came from all parts to attend this great solemnity:

and they stood before the image Nebuchadnezzar had set up; they stood and looked at it, and viewed its several parts; they stood and beheld it with wonder, its richness and largeness; they stood and attended to all the rites and ceremonies of the dedication of it; they stood and were ready to fall down and worship it, when the word of command was given; so obsequious were they to the king's will.

Barnes' Notes on the Bible

And they stood before the image - In the presence of the image. They were drawn up, doubtless, so as at the same time to have the best view of the statue, and to make the most imposing appearance.
