Study Note
The prediction that 'all nations shall serve him [Nebuchadnezzar], and his son, and his son's son: until the very time of his land come' presents Babylonian dominance as a divinely measured, temporally bounded phenomenon. The verse's theological significance lies in its framing of pagan imperial power as under divine authority and schedule: Nebuchadnezzar is God's 'servant' (verse 6, 'my servant Nebuchadnezzar') in the same paradoxical sense that Cyrus is God's anointed in Isaiah 45:1 — divine ends are achieved through instruments that do not share divine purposes. The prophetic word that the king's dynasty will serve 'until the very time of his land come' implies that all imperial hegemonies are temporary, measured, and ultimately under judgment. Daniel 2:21's 'he removeth kings, and setteth up kings' and Acts 17:26's 'he hath determined... the times before appointed' develop the same providential philosophy of history.
