Daniel 2:37

Listen to Daniel 2:37
37 Tú, oh rey, eres rey de reyes, a quien el Dios del cielo ha dado el reino, el poder, la fuerza y la gloria;

Daniel 2:37 Meaning and Commentary

Daniel 2:37

Thou, O king, art a king of kings
Having many kings subject and tributary to him, or would have; as the kings of Judah, Ammon, Moab, and others, and who were even his captives and prisoners; see ( Jeremiah 52:32 ) . Jarchi and Saadiah join this with the next clause, "the God of heaven", and interpret it of him thus, thou, O King Nebuchadnezzar, "the King of kings, who is the God of heaven, hath given unto thee"; so some in the Talmud understand it of God F11; but this is contrary to the accents: for the God of heaven hath given thee a kingdom, power, and strength,
and glory;
that is, a very powerful, strong, and glorious kingdom, famous for its mighty armies, strong fortresses, and great riches, from all which the king had great honour and glory; and this he had not by his ancestors, or his own military skill and prowess, but by the favour and gift of God.

Daniel 2:37 In-Context

35 Entonces fueron desmenuzados, todos a la vez, el hierro, el barro, el bronce, la plata y el oro; quedaron como el tamo de las eras en verano, y el viento se los llevó sin que quedara rastro alguno de ellos. Y la piedra que había golpeado la estatua se convirtió en un gran monte que llenó toda la tierra.
36 Este es el sueño; ahora diremos ante el rey su interpretación.
37 Tú, oh rey, eres rey de reyes, a quien el Dios del cielo ha dado el reino, el poder, la fuerza y la gloria;
38 y dondequiera que habiten los hijos de los hombres, las bestias del campo o las aves del cielo, El los ha entregado en tu mano y te ha hecho soberano de todos ellos; tú eres la cabeza de oro.
39 Después de ti se levantará otro reino, inferior a ti, y luego un tercer reino, de bronce, que gobernará sobre toda la tierra.
