This is an OT prophecy book about the 1st coming of Christ, but it is mainly about the courageous and compassionate witness of a man that was kidnapped from everything familiar in exile into a foreign country and its capital city. His faith and his God-given wisdom promoted him through 3 world dynasties for 50+ years. He never compromised his faith and witness under the threat of certain death. World leaders recognized his genuineness, his wisdom, and humble personality. How he did this in the most challenging circumstances will be an inspiration to all who read about it. Some of the book's statements are used today internationally in modern newscasts daily, such as "the Handwriting on the wall". Go back with me 2,600 years and see how God's people lived and witnessed. Be like Daniel in your culture today.
