And you alone were worthy to learn this secret of the Most High: Compare 2 Esd 8.62; 10.38-39; 13.53-54. This secret refers to the meaning of the dream. The following model tries to make the connection of this verse with the previous one clear:

• It is a secret that God Most High has thought you alone were worthy to learn.
