Daniel chapter 5 and the handwriting on the wall have long been criticized as legend. But an ancient clay tablet tells a different story. Discovered in the mid-1800s in modern-day Iraq and dating to 549–486 BC, the Nabonidus Chronicle records key events surrounding the fall of Babylon. Purchased by the British Museum in 1879 and later translated by Sir Henry Rawlinson, this fragment contains historical details that closely align with the account of King Belshazzar in the Book of Daniel. Explore with us as we examine how archaeology and Scripture intersect in one remarkable artifact.

My goal is that their hearts, having been knit together in love, may be encouraged, and that they may have all the riches that assurance brings in their understanding of the knowledge of the mystery of God, namely, Christ, in whom are hidden all the treasures of wisdom and knowledge. - Colossians 2:2-3
