Preacher's Complete Homiletical Commentary - Daniel 2:24-30

HOMILETICSSECT. VII.—THE TESTIMONY (Chap. Daniel 2:24-30)Daniel’s thanksgiving to God immediately followed by his testimony to men. Life being at stake, the business required haste. Daniel repairs, therefore, at once to the captain of the guard, informing him he was able to meet the king’s wish, and desiring to be admitted to his presence. In answering the king’s question, “Art thou able,” &c. (Daniel 2:26), Daniel verifies the words of the Psalmist, perhaps his own,—“I will speak of thy... read more

HOMILETICSSECT. VIII.—THE DREAM (Chap. Daniel 2:31-35)With the confidence of a man inspired and commissioned by the Most High, Daniel proceeds to declare the king’s dream. The dream one of no ordinary character. Exhibited the fate, not only of the empire of Babylon, but of those which should succeed it. Foreshowed their destruction and the means by which it should be effected. A little mysterious stone, with which the history of the world was bound up, was to accomplish the whole. The dream... read more

HOMILETICSSECT. IX.—THE INTERPRETATION OF THE DREAM (Chap. Daniel 2:36-46)In the interpretation of the king’s dream we come to the prophecies of Daniel. Some of these prophecies were communications from God to Daniel alone, without any other medium; others, like the present, through Daniel as the interpreter of what was already given to another in the shape of a dream. “This vision,” says E. Irving, “was revealed, not to the prophet, but to the king, in order to mark its secular and subsidiary... read more

HOMILETICSSECT. XI.—DANIEL’S ELEVATION (Chap. Daniel 2:46-49)The king was convinced that Daniel had given a true description and interpretation of his dream. The truth also which the youthful prophet declared concerning the true God, approved itself to his understanding and conscience, and for a time at least was powerfully felt. Under the power of his convictions he confesses himself a believer in Daniel’s God (Daniel 2:47) [79]. This all the more remarkable as the interpretation of his dream... read more

Sermon Bible Commentary - Daniel 2:29-49

Daniel 2:29-49 I take the severance of the stone from the mountain to denote the coming of Christ into the world, and the collision of the stone with the image to mean the founding by the Lord of that spiritual kingdom which is in its principles antagonistic to all the world-powers, and which will ultimately subdue them all. Thus viewed, the vision which Daniel recovered and interpreted suggests to us many interesting things concerning the kingdom of Christ. I. There is, first, its superhuman... read more

Sermon Bible Commentary - Daniel 2:34-35

Daniel 2:34-35 I. We see in the dream of Nebuchadnezzar the great fact that the kingdom of God, the kingdom of Christ, the kingdom of truth, is at length to be supreme over all other kingdoms. Other kingdoms have always hitherto represented ideas and forces of evil. From the beginning, even down to the present moment, there has not yet been one kingdom which has aimed supremely at the well-being of the world. All of them, without exception, have been selfish and aggressive, aiming at the... read more

Sermon Bible Commentary - Daniel 2:44-45

Daniel 2:44-45 I. Notice the law of decay in human affairs. (1) It is impressively illustrated in the fact that individuals pass so soon out of the memory of the world. (2) It is more impressively illustrated in the fact that nations die. (3) It disappoints the most plausible plans and. expectations of men. II. To this law of decay in human affairs there is one grand and marvellous exception. God has a kingdom in this world, which lives. (1) It deserves mention in illustration of this... read more

Sermon Bible Commentary - Daniel 2:45

Daniel 2:45 (with Proverbs 27:1 ) Our subject is the future, and we are to find out what is known, and also what is unknown about it. I. We owe a great deal, both in the way of stimulus and in the way of education, to the very mysteriousness of the future. It is expectancy call it hope and fear that gives life a rare interest: hope itself sometimes brings with it a sting of pain, and fear now and again brings with it even something of weird pleasure. Life that had no future would be but a... read more

DISCOURSE: 1123THE STONE THAT BECAME A MOUNTAINDaniel 2:44. In the days of these kings shall the God of heaven set up a kingdom, which shall never be destroyed: and the kingdom shall not be left to other people, but it shall break in. pieces, and consume all these kingdoms, and it shall stand for ever.THE various revolutions of kingdoms, how casual and contingent soever they may appear, all are fore-ordained in the inscrutable counsels of the Deity, and made subservient to the accomplishment of... read more
