Daniel 6:1-28


If you have your Bible, please turn to the Book of Daniel; Daniel in the Old Testament; Daniel, that great book written by the prophet Daniel. Six chapters of story, and six chapters of prophecy. If you have trouble finding Daniel, go to Ezekiel and take a right. It's right next to Ezekiel.

And Daniel became one of the principal men in the government of Cyrus the Persian, also known as Cyrus the Great.
