Decades later, when Daniel was probably in his 90's, he was summoned the palace. A man named Belshazzar, who was then ruling in Babylon, asked Daniel to interpret handwriting that had mysteriously appeared on the wall. Having divine guidance, Daniel revealed that Babylon would fall to the Medo-Persian Empire. Babylon was captured that very night. - DANIEL 5:1, 13-31.
Now, under Medo-Persian rule, Daniel was appointed as high official and King Darius considered promoting him further. (Daniel 6:1-3) Jealous officials plotted to assassinate Daniel by having him thrown into a lion's pit, but Jehovah rescued him. (Daniel 6:4-23) Toward the end of Daniel's life, an angel appeared to him and twice assured Daniel that he was a "very precious man." - DANIEL 10:11, 19.
Watch these events come to life in the two-part Bible drama Daniel-a Lifetime of Faith.
