The Seeing Of Dreams

Quid est quod Nabochodonsor tanti mysterii meruerit cernere somnium? Nunquid credere possumus hominis pessimi hoc meritum obtinuisse? Non merito vidit; sed ut interpretante sancto quod viderat, Deus glorificaretur. Sic nec Pharao videre meruit, sed ut Joseph cunctis esset praepositus. Petrus Archidiaconus  Liber De Diversis Quaestiunculis Source: Migne 96.1348c

Why is it that Nebuchadnezzar merited to see such mysteries in a dream? Can we believe that some merit of this wretched man obtained this? 1 He did not see on account of merit, but that God be glorified by the holy interpretation of what he saw. So neither did Pharoah see by merit, but in order that Joseph might be set above all. 2 Peter of Pisa, The Book of Diverse Questions 1 Dan 2.1- 2 Genes 41.1-43
