Daniel has a fantastical dream, and he fortells the cycles of history and human Kingdoms. The only one that will be forever, is the ultimate kingdom that will one day be led by the one chosen by God. The Kingdom of God will be the pinnacle of world history.

In another famous biblical chapter, Daniel becomes the victim of the jealousy of the other nobles. Using a tactic that would become a standard tactic of antisemites in future years, they forced Daniel to choose between his religion and his King. Daniel chooses God, and finds himself in the lion's den.

In one of the most famous chapters of the Bible, the King Belshazzar calls a giant durnken party for his noble men. within the drunken sex, revelry, and abuse of the vessels of God's Temple, a hand appears, and writes a mysterious message on the wall. Only the queen has the sense to call Daniel and ask him for help. Daniel rebukes the king, and predicts the downfall of the kingdom of Babylon.

Daniel interprets the kings dream, that it has been decreed from heaven that Nebuchadnezzar would lose his kingdom and wander the fields like an animal. Until he learns to be humble before the the true God, and treat his kingdom with justice.

Another dream bothers the king, this time he sees a great big tree that gets chopped down. He again calls upon Daniel to interpret its meaning.

The enraged king condemns our three heroes to the fiery furnace, and miraculously they are unharmed. The king finally admits to a power greater than his own.

Nebuchadnezzer sets up a giant statue of gold, and demands that all of his subjects worship his "god" of wealth and power. The Judeans refuse to worship any God but the One True God, and the Chaldeans seize the opportunity to slander the three Jewish officials. With complete faith in God, the three leaders tell the king, we will not worship your false god. Even if it means our death by fire.

Daniel reveals the images that the king saw in his dream, a great statue made of many materials that gets destroyed by a stone. Human kingdoms will come and go and replace each other over and over. Until all of humanity recognizes God and establishes a kingdom that will last forever.

The King is bothered by an awful dream, but can't even remember the content of the dream, let alone its' interpretation. All of his magicians cannot help him, and he is enraged. A decree sending all the wise men (or not-so-wise men) to the executioner is declared, and Daniel and his friend's lives are in jeapordy. From Daniel's response, we learn the secrets of what prayer truly is.

Four young Judean captives are taken into King Nebuchadnezzar's royal complex. After being given Babylonian names, they are set to be trained and indrinated in the ways and the wisdom of their new country. The leader of the four, Daniel, faces his first major problem. How do we eat the food that we are being givne if it is clearly not Kosher? We begin to see the special wisdom and grace of this remarkable young man as he navigates the challenges of remaining faithful to the God of his ancestors in a foreign country that wants him to adopt their new ways.
