At the time of Nebuchadnezzar’s humiliation he was obviously the most powerful man on Earth. Also Nebuchadnezzar did not worship the God of the Bible. That being so it would be easy to delude himself in to thinking that his rule and will was supreme. However he would be forced to acknowledge that the God of Daniel’s will and authority superseded his. The words of Daniel 4:35 are the words of King Nebuchadnezzar’s admission and realization in recognition of the superiority the Daniel’s God who foretold and caused his temporary insanity and subsequent revival and reinstatement.


After Nebuchadnezzar had lived like an animal for those seven times, or years, God restored his understanding and he had to admit ‘that no one can stay the hand of the Most High or say to him: What have you been doing?’ More than that, the Babylonian ruler showed he had further learned his lesson, by saying: “Now I, Nebuchadnezzar, am praising and exalting and glorifying the King of the heavens, because all his works are truth and his ways are justice, and because those who are walking in pride”—as the king had done—“he is able to humiliate.”
 
All the inhabitants of the eretz are reputed as nothing; and he does according to his will in the army of heaven, and among the inhabitants of the eretz; and none can stay his hand, or tell him, What do you?
