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 De la manera que viste que del monte fue cortada una piedra, que no con manos, desmenuz贸 al hierro, al bronce, al tiesto, a la plata, y al oro; el Dios grande mostr贸 al rey lo que ha de acontecer en lo por venir: y el sue帽o es verdadero, y fiel su declaraci贸n.
46 Entonces el rey Nabucodonosor cay贸 sobre su rostro, y se humill贸 ante Daniel, y mand贸 que le sacrificasen presentes y perfumes.
47 El rey habl贸 a Daniel, y dijo: Ciertamente que el Dios vuestro Dios es Dios de dioses, y el Se帽or de los reyes, y el descubridor de los misterios, pues pudiste revelar este misterio.
48 Entonces el rey magnific贸 a Daniel, y le dio muchos y grandes dones, y lo puso por gobernador de toda la provincia de Babilonia, y por pr铆ncipe de los gobernadores sobre todos los sabios de Babilonia.
49 Y Daniel solicit贸 del rey, y 茅l puso sobre los negocios de la provincia de Babilonia a Sadrac, Mesac, y Abed-nego; y Daniel estaba a la puerta del rey.
