Daniele 2:19 Meaning and Commentary

Daniel 2:19

Then was the secret revealed unto Daniel in a night vision,
&c.] That is, after Daniel and his companions had importunately sought the Lord by prayer, the secret of the king's dream, and the interpretation of it, were made known to Daniel, and to him only; he being the person designed in Providence to be raised to great honour and dignity by means of it; this was done either the same night, or the night following, and, as some think, in a dream, and that he dreamed the same dream Nebuchadnezzar did, which he remembered, though the king forgot it; or, however, the same image was represented, to him, whether sleeping or waking, and the meaning of it given him: then Daniel blessed the God of heaven:
gave thanks to him, that he had heard his prayer, and indulged him in his request; which thanksgiving, blessing, or praise, is expressed in the following words:

Daniele 2:19 In-Context

17 Allora Daniele andò a casa sua, e informò della cosa Hanania, Mishael e Azaria, suoi compagni,
18 perché implorassero la misericordia dell’Iddio del cielo, a proposito di questo segreto, onde Daniele e i suoi compagni non fossero messi a morte col resto dei savi di Babilonia.
19 Allora il segreto fu rivelato a Daniele in una visione notturna. E Daniele benedisse l’Iddio del cielo.
20 Daniele prese a dire: "Sia benedetto il nome di Dio, d’eternità in eternità! poiché a lui appartengono la sapienza e la forza.
21 Egli muta i tempi e le stagioni; depone i re e li stabilisce, dà la sapienza ai savi, e la scienza a quelli che hanno intelletto.
