The First Fall of Babylon
from PSALMS to God Hosted by Ree Hughes
"30. In that night was Belshazzar the king of the Chaldeans slain. 31. And Darius the Median took the kingdom, being about threescore and two years old." 📚Daniel 5:30-31 KJV In Daniel 5 we get to see the fulfillment of the Babylon falling to another empire. In this fulfillment are a lot of lesson but we'll stick to history, the fulfilling of prophecy, and reaffirming how on the nose Daniel's prophecies are. We're also going to discuss the controversy between the Biblical record and the secular one.
