I don't have a link...just a hardback printed copy of Shakespeare. It's all in Act IV, Scene I.

Line 223: Shylock: "A Daniel come to judgement! yea, a Daniel."

Line 333: Gratiano: "A second Daniel! A Daniel, Jew!" (sarcastic)

Line 339: Gratiano: "A Daniel, still say I, a second Daniel!"

The allusion is clearly to the story of Susanna and the elders, one of the addtiions to the book of Daniel.

Actually, I meant a link to the books of the Bible. And you might want to read the books by Pearce on Shakespeare.
