You still seem to have a blind spot with respect to the “setteth up kings” part.

The phrase “times have changed” is leftspeak.

Not at all. I’m pointing out that removeth comes first. And if one gets removed and another doesn’t get setup, God’s will.

Time’s have changed is REALITY speak. Times do change. Technology changes, society changes, concepts of governance change. Self governance wasn’t much of a thing 2100 years ago. Kings got deposed, lines got eliminated, to setup new kings. It would be quite a while before people got the idea (wisdom, from God) that you could depose a monarchy and replace it with something ELSE.

Keep in mind historian think the Book of Daniel was written during the Maccabean Revolt, when the Jews were fighting for independence FROM a king. According to YOU they shouldn’t have done that. They should have just sat back and waited for God to do something. Much more logical given the circumstance to see that what it’s saying is that if they succeed (which was still up in the air at the time) that would be the hand of God.

If the people of England finally get wise, realize that their monarchy costs them a lot of money and gives them nothing and choose to end it that’s God removing the king.
