In this work Henry Smith explains Daniel 4:29-34 concerning the life and actions of king Nebuchadnezzar. Though this work is insightful into the manner of kings and magistrates, it is also extremely helpful on the sin of pride, which every Christian struggles to overcome. Nebuchadnezzar boasts, and demonstrates his pride over the "city he built" and then is brought low like a beast until God graciously delivers him. His deliverance is marked with looking up to heaven while spending time in the wilderness among the animals as a beast, and acknowledges that God is the one true Most high above all men. This is a classic work that will humble the Christian.
