| Daniel 3:27
| For thou art just in all that thou hast done to us, and all thy works are true, and thy ways right, and all thy judgments true.
| True; not fickle, and liable to change. (Calmet) --- Opera mutas non mutas consilium. (St. Augustine, Conf. 1:4.) --- Cappel. argues from this confession, that the piece is not divine, as they would rather have burst out into expressions of admiration, as they do in the canticle below. But they had done so already, (ver. 26) and make this confession, (Haydock) as Daniel does, Daniel 9.; reflecting, that if the nation had not transgressed, they would not thus have been exposed to the fury of the king. (Houbigant. 5:40.) (Haydock)
