Thank you for instruction on the interpretation of the King's dream May G-d bless you and every Jew who has ever lived and will be. I am reading Daniel 2 to my son and I needed help with this passage. I do have a thought and it concerns the soothsayers, demonologists, Chaldean, etc. When I listened to you and recall what I read, I thought that they nailed it. They cannot know the King's dream and they said so. It would take 'gods' to reveal it, they said. They could divine that, at least. If G-d gives you a message and it is intended for you alone, then nothing - not sorcery, trickery, and, for today, technology - shall intercept it. This message is for you alone to reveal or, at least, confirm, which the King did to Daniel's words. Just a thought. Or, the Chaldeans, etc. were just a bunch of frauds. Lastly, 'Ask Rabbi Google' is hysterical. I do that.
