Daniel 5:21

Context
5:21 He was driven from human society, his mind 2  was changed to that of an animal, he lived 3  with the wild donkeys, he was fed grass like oxen, and his body became damp with the dew of the sky, until he came to understand that the most high God rules over human kingdoms, and he appoints over them whomever he wishes.

[3:25]  1 sn The phrase like that of a god is in Aramaic “like that of a son of the gods.” Many patristic writers understood this phrase in a christological sense (i.e., “the Son of God”). But it should be remembered that these are words spoken by a pagan who is seeking to explain things from his own polytheistic frame of reference; for him the phrase “like a son of the gods” is equivalent to “like a divine being.”

[5:21]  2 tn Aram “heart.”

[5:21]  3 tn Aram “his dwelling.”
