Daniel 4:14 Meaning and Commentary

Daniel 4:14

He cried aloud
Or, with strengths; F12 being a mighty angel, and that he might be heard far and near: and said thus, hew down the tree;
remove this mighty monarch from his throne; take away his government from him: this is said to fellow angels employed in the affairs of Providence, and the execution of them, to bring about an event so momentous: and cut off his branches;
take away his provinces, each of the parts of his dominion, from him: shake off his leaves:
cause his deputy governors to shake off their allegiance to him: and scatter his fruit;
the revenues of his vast empire, and let others take them: let the beasts get away from under it, and the fowls from his branches;
those that have either voluntarily betook themselves to him for protection; or have been carried captive by him, and have lived under his shadow, whether of the more barbarous nations, or more civilized, as the Jews; let them take the opportunity of withdrawing from him, and returning to their own lands; see ( Jeremiah 51:9 ) .

Daniel 4:14 In-Context

12 A sua folhagem era formosa, e o seu fruto abundante, e havia nela sustento para todos; debaixo dela os animais do campo achavam sombra, e as aves do céu faziam morada nos seus ramos, e dela se mantinha toda a carne.
13 Eu via isso nas visões da minha cabeça, estando eu na minha cama, e eis que um vigia, um santo, descia do céu.
14 Ele clamou em alta voz e disse assim: Derrubai a árvore, e cortai-lhe os ramos, sacudi as suas folhas e espalhai o seu fruto; afugentem-se os animais de debaixo dela, e as aves dos seus ramos.
15 Contudo deixai na terra o tronco com as suas raízes, numa cinta de ferro e de bronze, no meio da tenra relva do campo; e seja molhado do orvalho do céu, e seja a sua porção com os animais na erva da terra.
16 Seja mudada a sua mente, para que não seja mais a de homem, e lhe seja dada mente de animal; e passem sobre ele sete tempos.
