अध्ययन टिप्पणी

Study Note

The doxological affirmation that God 'changeth the times and the seasons: he removeth kings, and setteth up kings: he giveth wisdom unto the wise, and knowledge to them that know understanding' belongs to the blessing Daniel offers after God reveals Nebuchadnezzar's dream. The double action regarding kings ('removeth... setteth up') establishes a comprehensive divine sovereignty over political succession that relativizes all human claims to self-determined power. The parallel between divine sovereignty over times-and-seasons and divine sovereignty over political rulers suggests an integration of cosmic and historical sovereignty characteristic of Old Testament theology from Deuteronomy 32:8 onward. Acts 17:26, Romans 13:1, and 1 Peter 2:13-14 draw on this theological tradition when addressing Christian political ethics.
