Family Reading of Scripture
Daniel Scene 6
Scene 6:
Scripture Reading Plan:
Daniel & Belshazzar
Daniel 5, Psalm 83, Psalm 115, Proverbs 2
What happened? Belshazzar was defiant and disobedient toward God. Interestingly, Nebuchadnezzar ends with “and those who walk in pride He is able to put down.” We see this through Belshazzar’s prideful and defiant actions as a leader. He was measured and judged which caused his life to end. The final word of the four inscribed words was “PERES”, which means the kingdom has been divided. Darius the Mede is now appointed the kingdom’s new ruler as the Medes and Persians took over the kingdom. Daniel is appointed the 3rd highest ranking official in the kingdom as a result of his obedience, courage, and faithfulness.
