Daniel 4:3

3 ¡Cuán grandes son sus señales, y cuán poderosas sus maravillas! Su reino es un reino eterno, y su dominio de generación en generación.

Daniel 4:3 Meaning and Commentary

Daniel 4:3

How great are his signs! and how mighty are his wonders!
&c.] They are great, very great, exceeding great; so great that it cannot be said, nor even conceived how great they are, what a display of wisdom, power, and goodness is in them; they are wonderful beyond expression and conception; and so strong and mighty as not to be resisted and made void by all the powers of nature, earth, or hell; and if this may be said of his works of providence, and his miracles of that, how much more of his works and miracles of grace! his kingdom is an everlasting kingdom;
Nebuchadnezzar's reign, though a long one, had an end, and so have all others; but the kingdom of God is for ever; the kingdom of providence, and also of grace; the kingdom of his Son, the Messiah, as in ( Daniel 2:44 ) from whence Nebuchadnezzar had learnt this: and his dominion is from generation to generation;
or, "with generation and generation" F1; it goes along, and continues with all generations, and will do so to the end of time.

Daniel 4:3 In-Context

1 Nabucodonosor, rey, a todos los pueblos, naciones y lenguas que habitan en toda la tierra: Que abunde vuestra paz.
2 Me ha parecido bien declarar las señales y maravillas que ha hecho conmigo el Dios Altísimo.
3 ¡Cuán grandes son sus señales, y cuán poderosas sus maravillas! Su reino es un reino eterno, y su dominio de generación en generación.
4 Yo, Nabucodonosor, estaba tranquilo en mi casa y próspero en mi palacio.
5 Tuve un sueño que me hizo temblar; y estas fantasías, estando en mi cama, y las visiones de mi mente me aterraron.
