When Babylon Fell
Between Daniel chapters 5 and 6, there is a seismic world power shift that is virtually imperceptible. Babylon falls and Persia takes over-the world. It struck me the other day as I was out here in Asia teaching this book that God really does see the nations as a mere drop in the bucket. The greatness of Babylon outshines most other world powers in history and they vanished-in one night. The Bible almost glosses over it and gives the world to Cyrus, the King of Persia-also known in history as “The Great”.
