Send us a text

"Have you ever tried to understand Daniel's role in God's larger plan? Today’s episode examines how Daniel’s story connects to Hezekiah, Babylonian stargazers, and the Magi — showing Scripture as one unified, Christ-centered narrative across centuries."

Pastor Teddy, a.k.a Fred Kenney, Jr., explores the fascinating historical context surrounding the Book of Daniel, connecting biblical events spanning hundreds of years through the mysterious Babylonian stargazers who became aware of divine signs in the heavens. This is an exciting further look into what will be the backdrop to Plays On Word's latest play, 'DAN' set for release soon.

• Historical overview of the Babylonian Empire's rise to power in 605 BC
• Exploration of King Hezekiah's miraculous healing and the sun moving backward as a sign
• Connection between Babylonian envoys who visited Hezekiah and the Magi who later sought Jesus
• Daniel's capture as a young nobleman in the first wave of Babylonian captives
• Description of Babylon's impressive architecture and cultural impact on the young captives
• Timeline of Jerusalem's three sieges (605 BC, 598 BC, and 586 BC)
• Biblical interconnections showing how Scripture points to Christ throughout history

The Lord bless you and keep you. The Lord make his face to shine upon you and be gracious to you. The Lord lift up his countenance upon you and give you peace. ~ Numbers 6: 24-26
