Daniel4:31
31 While the word was in the kings mouth, there fell a voice from heaven , saying, O king Nebuchadnezzar, to thee it is spoken, The kingdom is departed from thee .
This made the judgment more remarkable, and argued the sin more provoking, and the anger of God more just against him. Sudden judgments are most dreadful whereof we have many instances, as in Herod, Elimas, Ananias and Saphyra, &c. this voice was from God.
This voice was alowd and clearly perceived by the King, and them about him which the dream intimated more obscurely; not the Kingdom, but the administration of the Government was transferred to others.
