What Does Daniel 4:11 Mean?
The tree does not merely stand; it grows and becomes strong, until its top reaches heaven and it can be seen to the end of all the earth. The picture swells to cosmic proportions, a strength visible to every nation.
Greatness that reaches toward heaven recalls earlier human ambition that aimed at the sky and was brought low. The very language hints at the danger of strength that forgets its limits. What climbs toward heaven on its own terms is heading for a fall.
