Summary
God shows His sovereignty, not only in grace, but also in justice. In this story, we see a similar motif to chapter 4: king who is full of himself and is punished by God. This time, there is no restoration, and the king and kingdom are taken away. This is a good reminder to us that grace is not a given, something that we should just assume, but is God withholding the punishment we deserve.
