The story takes place after the Medo-Persian empire takes control of Babylon. You can read it in its entirety, see Daniel 6:1-28. In order for us to fully comprehend the story, we must first humbly ask the Spirit of the Living God to open our minds. This isn’t an academic exercise, but we are seeking to see Jesus our savior through the pages of the Holy Scriptures. For this passage, these are the questions that came to my mind.
How did Darius and others perceive Daniel?
What was the plot against Daniel and how was it delivered?
What was Daniel’s response when he heard about it?
What was so important about the Law of the Mede and Persians?
How did it affect Darius?
What happened to the Law of the Mede and Persians when the lions refused to devour Daniel?
What is the connection between Daniel and the Lord Jesus?

In 2017, I entered a very dark time in my life and it’s only by the grace of the Living God that I’m still alive today. It led me to really go deeper in my faith and consider a myriad of questions that I never thought about asking myself or others before. Welcome and enjoy the ride with me.
