Daniel 2:47 Meaning and Commentary

Daniel 2:47

The king answered unto Daniel
By which it appears that Daniel interposed and expostulated with the king, and prevented the oblation to him as a god, and instructed him in the knowledge of the true God he ought to worship; as the following confession of the king more clearly shows: and said, of a truth it is, that your God is a God of gods;
the God of Daniel and his companions, and of the people of the Jews, to whom they belonged, is above all gods that are named and worshipped by men: this appeared at this time for the present, though it did not last long, as the following chapter shows, a most glaring truth; that the God of Israel was above all his gods, and whom his magicians and people worshipped, and above all others: and a Lord of kings;
that rules over them, and disposes of them; sets them up and pulls them down at his pleasure; and transfers their kingdoms from one to another, as he learned by the interpretation of his dream, to which he may in this refer: and a revealer of secrets, seeing thou couldest reveal this secret;
of the dream, and the interpretation of it; which he could never have done, had not his God been a revealer of secrets, and revealed it to him.

Daniel 2:47 In-Context

45 tal como viste que una piedra fue cortada del monte sin ayuda de manos y que desmenuzó el hierro, el bronce, el barro, la plata y el oro. El gran Dios ha hecho saber al rey lo que sucederá en el futuro. Así, pues, el sueño es verdadero y la interpretación fiel.
46 Entonces el rey Nabucodonosor cayó sobre su rostro, se postró ante Daniel, y ordenó que le ofrecieran presentes e incienso.
47 El rey habló a Daniel, y dijo: En verdad que vuestro Dios es Dios de dioses, Señor de reyes y revelador de misterios, ya que tú has podido revelar este misterio.
48 Entonces el rey engrandeció a Daniel y le dio muchos y espléndidos regalos, y le hizo gobernador sobre toda la provincia de Babilonia y jefe supremo sobre todos los sabios de Babilonia.
49 Por solicitud de Daniel, el rey puso sobre la administración de la provincia de Babilonia a Sadrac, Mesac y a Abed-nego, mientras que Daniel quedó en la corte del rey.
