The book of Daniel opens with Jehoiakim, King of Judah, being taken to Babylon as an exile and royal captive (along with a segment of the Judean population that includes Daniel). In this episode, Pastor Mathew presents a brief overview of Israel's exile into Babylon, which includes the exile's background and hopeful end. An understanding of this topic will lead to a better understanding of Daniel as a whole.
