Commentary on Daniel 3:12 voices
“But at the same time some pretense to piety was joined with it; for he pretended that he wished to worship God. Hence, also, what I formerly mentioned appears more clear, namely, -- King Nebuchadnezzar was not truly and heartily converted, but rather remained fixed in his own errors, when he was attributing glory to the God of Israel.”
John Calvin · Commentaries, 1554Reformed
“Verse 1. ‘Nebuchadnezzar the king made a golden statue seventy cubits in height and six cubits in breadth.’ How soon he forgot the truth, when he had just been worshipping a servant of God as if he had been God Himself, but now commanded a statue to be made for himself in order that he personally might be worshipped in the statue!”
