Daniel 5:23

Studie

       

23 du har ophøiet dig mot himmelens herre, og du har latt hente karene som var tatt fra hans hus, og du og dine stormenn, dine hustruer og dine medhustruer har drukket vin av dem, og du har prist dine guder av sølv og gull, av kobber, jern, tre og sten, som ikke ser og ikke hører og ikke har forstand; men den Gud i hvis hånd din livsånde er, og som råder over alle dine veier, har du ikke æret.

176. Internal Meaning of Daniel, Chapter 5

1-4 Babylon profaned all things of heaven and of the church. (3)

5-6 It was perceived from the Word, that it was profane, (3)

7-9 but it was not perceived by the primates who were in that religion. (3)

10-24 It was confirmed by those who were in the truths of the church, that it was contrary to the Word for them to have exalted themselves above the Lord, and that thus they profaned things holy. (3)

25-28 That religion was at an end because there was no longer good and truth of the church. (3, 12)

29-30 Thus everything of the church there, came to an end. (3)

31 Worship of the Lord was thought about, as in the church. (2)
