Daniel 2:19

King James Bible

"Then was the secret revealed unto Daniel in a night vision. Then Daniel blessed the God of heaven."

Commentary

God answers Daniel's prayer by unveiling Nebuchadnezzar's dream through a supernatural vision during the night. This divine revelation comes at a critical moment when Daniel and his friends face execution, demonstrating God's sovereignty over human wisdom and His willingness to reveal mysteries to those who seek Him. Daniel's immediate response is worship rather than rushing to the king with the answer. By identifying God as "the God of heaven," Daniel emphasizes divine authority over earthly kingdoms, contrasting the true God with Babylon's powerless idols and establishing the theological framework for interpreting the dream.
