They that see thee shall narrowly look upon thee, and consider thee, saying, Is this the man that made the earth to tremble, that shook kingdoms—the observation of the Babylon king in his degradation, with those who knew him comparing his former power to his present weakness. The questions emphasize the irony of the transformation, with the mighty reduced to insignificance. This verse suggests that the visual evidence of the king's fall will testify to God's judgment.
