Habakkuk 1:11
_ _ Then — when elated by his successes.
_ _ shall his mind change — He shall lose whatever of reason or moderation ever was in him, with pride.
_ _ he shall pass over — all bounds and restraints: his pride preparing the sure way for his destruction (Proverbs 16:18). The language is very similar to that describing Nebuchadnezzar’s “change” from man’s heart (understanding) to that of a beast, because of pride (see on Daniel 4:16; see on Daniel 4:30, Daniel 4:31; see on Daniel 4:33, Daniel 4:34). An undesigned coincidence between the two sacred books written independently.
_ _ imputing this his power unto his god — (Daniel 5:4). Sacrilegious arrogance, in ascribing to his idol Bel the glory that belongs to God [Calvin]. Grotius explains, “(saying that) his power is his own as one who is a god to himself” (compare Habakkuk 1:16, and Daniel 3:1-30). So Maurer, “He shall offend as one to whom his power is his god” (Job 12:6; see on Micah 2:1). |

Daniel 5:3-4 Then they brought the golden vessels that were taken out of the temple of the house of God which [was] at Jerusalem; and the king, and his princes, his wives, and his concubines, drank in them. ...
