Notes and references
Some believe this refers to the regulations established by King David instead of the Persian king; however, Ezra 6:9, 10 records the fact that King Darius supplied appropriate items for sacrifice and requested daily prayers for “… the king and his sons.” Artaxerxes may have continued this practice.
