하나님은 역사주관섭리자(歷史主管攝理者)
2026.8.8
(단2:25-45)
25 Arioch took Daniel to the king at once and said, "I have found a man among the exiles from Judah who can tell the king what his dream means." 26 The king asked Daniel (also called Belteshazzar), "Are you able to tell me what I saw in my dream and interpret it?" 27 Daniel replied, "No wise man, enchanter, magician or diviner can explain to the king the mystery he has asked about, 28 but there is a God in heaven who reveals mysteries. He has shown King Nebuchadnezzar what will happen in days to come. Your dream and the visions that passed through your mind as you lay on your bed are these: 29 "As you were lying there, O king, your mind turned to things to come, and the revealer of mysteries showed you what is going to happen. 30 As for me, this mystery has been revealed to me, not because I have greater wisdom than other living men, but so that you, O king, may know the interpretation and that you may understand what went through your mind. 31 "You looked, O king, and there before you stood a large statue--an enormous, dazzling statue, awesome in appearance. 32 The head of the statue was made of pure gold, its chest and arms of silver, its belly and thighs of bronze, 33 its legs of iron, its feet partly of iron and partly of baked clay. 34 While you were watching, a rock was cut out, but not by human hands. It struck the statue on its feet of iron and clay and smashed them. 35 Then the iron, the clay, the bronze, the silver and the gold were broken to pieces at the same time and became like chaff on a threshing floor in the summer. The wind swept them away without leaving a trace. But the rock that struck the statue became a huge mountain and filled the whole earth. 36 "This was the dream, and now we will interpret it to the king. 37 You, O king, are the king of kings. The God of heaven has given you dominion and power and might and glory; 38 in your hands he has placed mankind and the beasts of the field and the birds of the air. Wherever they live, he has made you ruler over them all. You are that head of gold. 39 "After you, another kingdom will rise, inferior to yours. Next, a third kingdom, one of bronze, will rule over the whole earth. 40 Finally, there will be a fourth kingdom, strong as iron--for iron breaks and smashes everything--and as iron breaks things to pieces, so it will crush and break all the others. 41 Just as you saw that the feet and toes were partly of baked clay and partly of iron, so this will be a divided kingdom; yet it will have some of the strength of iron in it, even as you saw iron mixed with clay. 42 As the toes were partly iron and partly clay, so this kingdom will be partly strong and partly brittle. 43 And just as you saw the iron mixed with baked clay, so the people will be a mixture and will not remain united, any more than iron mixes with clay. 44 "In the time of those kings, the God of heaven will set up a kingdom that will never be destroyed, nor will it be left to another people. It will crush all those kingdoms and bring them to an end, but it will itself endure forever. 45 This is the meaning of the vision of the rock cut out of a mountain, but not by human hands--a rock that broke the iron, the bronze, the clay, the silver and the gold to pieces. "The great God has shown the king what will take place in the future. The dream is true and the interpretation is trustworthy."
느브갓네살의 꿈
사람의 형상을 했지만
머리~발끝
금은동철(金銀銅鐵)
그리고 철(鐵)과 흙의 혼합(混合)된 발(足)
해석인즉
바벨론 이후에 나타날 시대변화(時代變化)
하나님의 작정(作定)
하나님의 섭리방향노출(攝理方向露出)
일단은 스스로의 능력과 지혜로 대국(大國)을 이루었다는 교만(驕慢) 가능성(可能性) 사전예방몽(事前豫防夢)이라 할 것
금(金)...바벨론
은(銀)...페르시아
동(銅)...그리이스
철(鐵)...로마
철+흙...2차세계대전 후 오스만제국(Ottoman Empire)의 분열(分裂)과 독립국가시대(獨立國家時代)
결국 예수님의 재림심판(再臨審判)까지...
그러나 느브갓네살
어리석게도 단2:25-45 의 경고무시(警告無視) 혹은 망각(忘却)의 댓가일까?
단4:30의 발언(發言) 4:31-32의 천벌(天罰)을 받게 되는데...
단4:34 예언대로 정상회복과 하나님을 향한 찬양
단4:35 하나님의 주권인정
단4:36-37 왕위 회복과 최종 송축하는 장면
이를 통해 하나님은
역사주관섭리자(歷史主管攝理者)는 오직 하나님 한 분 뿐이심을
이스라엘 백성들에게
이방 바벨론 과 모든 나라들에게
그리고 훗날 듣게 될
읽게 될 모든 존재들에게 그 사실을 알게 하는 목적 있음을 발견한다
이 사실에 대하여
아멘!
맞습니다 라는 대답만이
내 전부
내게 일어나는 모든 일들이
다니엘서처럼 하나님께 영광이 되었으면 ... 하는 마음으로 오늘을 시작한다
