Study note

Daniel 2:45

  • The Babylonians often pictured the earth as a large mountain or a ziggurat (a tall, stepped temple tower). Because of this, the rock in the dream would be understood as covering or replacing the whole earth.

  • The dream is true: The dream was clearly explained through divine revelation, and it came from God.

  • its interpretation is trustworthy: God guaranteed that the dream's message would definitely happen.
