Jerome

St. Jerome, Commentary on Daniel, CHAPTER TWO (420)

Verse 19. "And Daniel blessed the God of heaven, and spoke, saying..." In contrast to those who occupy themselves with this world and delude the earthly minded with demonic arts and illusions, Daniel blessed the God of heaven. For the gods who did not create heaven and earth will pass away.
