Daniel 2:47 Meaning and Commentary

Daniel 2:47

The king answered unto Daniel
By which it appears that Daniel interposed and expostulated with the king, and prevented the oblation to him as a god, and instructed him in the knowledge of the true God he ought to worship; as the following confession of the king more clearly shows: and said, of a truth it is, that your God is a God of gods;
the God of Daniel and his companions, and of the people of the Jews, to whom they belonged, is above all gods that are named and worshipped by men: this appeared at this time for the present, though it did not last long, as the following chapter shows, a most glaring truth; that the God of Israel was above all his gods, and whom his magicians and people worshipped, and above all others: and a Lord of kings;
that rules over them, and disposes of them; sets them up and pulls them down at his pleasure; and transfers their kingdoms from one to another, as he learned by the interpretation of his dream, to which he may in this refer: and a revealer of secrets, seeing thou couldest reveal this secret;
of the dream, and the interpretation of it; which he could never have done, had not his God been a revealer of secrets, and revealed it to him.

Daniel 2:47 In-Context

45 Tal es el sentido del sueño donde la roca se desprendía de una montaña; roca que, sin la intervención de nadie, hizo añicos al hierro, al bronce, al barro, a la plata y al oro. El gran Dios le ha mostrado a Su Majestad lo que tendrá lugar en el futuro. El sueño es verdadero, y esta interpretación, digna de confianza.

46 Al oír esto, el rey Nabucodonosor se postró ante Daniel y le rindió pleitesía, ordenó que se le presentara una ofrenda e incienso,

47 y le dijo:—¡Tu Dios es el Dios de dioses y el soberano de los reyes! ¡Tu Dios revela todos los misterios, pues fuiste capaz de revelarme este sueño misterioso!

48 Luego el rey puso a Daniel en un puesto prominente y lo colmó de regalos, lo nombró gobernador de toda la provincia de Babilonia y jefe de todos sus sabios.

49 Además, a solicitud de Daniel, el rey nombró a Sadrac, Mesac y Abednego administradores de la provincia de Babilonia. Daniel, por su parte, permaneció en la corte real.
