Daniel 4:7 Meaning and Commentary

Daniel 4:7

Then came in the magicians, the astrologers, the Chaldeans,
and the soothsayers (See Gill on Daniel 2:2), and I told the dream before them, but they did not make known unto
me the interpretation thereof;
because they could not; before they pretended, if the dream was told, they could give the interpretation of it; but now, though it was told, they could not do it; which shows the vanity of their art, the falsehood of their pretensions, and that they were but jugglers and impostors.

Daniel 4:7 In-Context

5 But as I was stretched out on my bed I had a dream that scared me - a nightmare that shook me.

6 I sent for all the wise men of Babylon so that they could interpret the dream for me.

7 When they were all assembled - magicians, enchanters, fortunetellers, witches - I told them the dream. None could tell me what it meant.

8 "And then Daniel came in. His Babylonian name is Belteshazzar, named after my god, a man full of the divine Holy Spirit. I told him my dream.

9 "'Belteshazzar,' I said, 'chief of the magicians, I know that you are a man full of the divine Holy Spirit and that there is no mystery that you can't solve. Listen to this dream that I had and interpret it for me.
