Babylon Exile

The city of Jerusalem falls to the Babylonian army and their indomitable king Nebuchadnezzar. After conquering the city, the Babylonian king deports its inhabitants, including members of the royal family, to Babylon. Among these exiles is a young man named Daniel who, even as a young man, showed that he would not compromise his beliefs. In situation after situation, even when his life was at stake, he demonstrated iron-clad trust in God. When King Nebuchadnezzar has a disturbing dream, Daniel is the only one gifted by God to be able to state what the dream was and its meaning. This event propels Daniel into leadership in service to their conquerors.
