Daniel2:20
20 Daniel answered and said, Blessed be the name of God for ever and ever: for wisdom and might are his .
He blesseth God for two things. 1. Wisdom, he means chiefly the Wisdom God gave him in revealing this great secret to him, which the wise men could not attain to, because they knew not the true God, nor did seek to him for it, this is clear in ver. 21, 22, 23. 2. Might is his, that is, Almighty above, all mighty Potentates of the World, above Nebuchadnezzar and all the Kings of the Earth, for he sets them up and plucks them down at pleasure, ver. 21. as the interpretation of the dream and Vision shews.
