Study Note
Daniel's speech to Belshazzar — 'O thou king, the most high God gave Nebuchadnezzar thy father a kingdom, and majesty, and glory, and honour' — frames the entire Nebuchadnezzar cycle as a history lesson on the source and conditionality of human power. The theological logic of Daniel 2-5 is consistent: world empires are not self-generating powers but delegated authorities; their glory is given, not intrinsic. Daniel 4's extended account of Nebuchadnezzar's humiliation (verse 17: 'the most High ruleth in the kingdom of men, and giveth it to whomsoever he will') provides the enacted theology that verse 18 here summarises. Romans 13:1 ('there is no power but of God: the powers that be are ordained of God') and Revelation 13's beast-powers as permitted rather than independent entities both stand within this Danielic theology of delegated, accountable power.
