The stability of Royal Dominion results from the purity and the righteousness of its constitution. No throne of power can ever be permanent, which is not erected upon the foundation of Eternal Truth, and governed by the laws of moral rectitude.
It is thus that the throne of Jehovah is established, and thus it is stamped with immutability and eternity. Founded in the immutable principles of equity and moral right, and characterized in all its operations by justice, goodness and peace; the majesty and glory of his moral empire remain forever untarnished; while its perpetuity is commensurate with his being—'justice and judgment are the habitation of his throne, while mercy and truth go before his face.'
Our text constitutes a part of the interpretation given by Daniel the prophet, in relation to the famous dream of Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon. That imperious and splendid monarch, having in the providence of God, by the power of his arm subdued all the adjacent kingdoms of the east, and led captive many of the conquered princes and their nobles to the seat of his empire, on the streams of the Euphrates; became highly elevated and borne aloft in his own imagination, with regard to the extent and glory of his dominions, together with the strength and the grandeur of his throne.
