I wonder if you’ve ever experienced being in a courtroom when the judge pronounces the verdict and drops the gavel declaring the decision final and the case closed? Depending on the severity of the case the words of the judge and the sound of the gavel can be chilling, sending a shiver up your spine. That is exactly the scene I left you in yesterday, but it wasn’t a courtroom, it was a large banquet hall in or near the palace in Babylon 2500 years ago. King Belshazzar and his 1000 guests were terrified by seeing a disembodied hand appear in the air and write some words on the banquet hall wall. (Daniel 5:1-6) Only Daniel was able to read the words and explain to the king and his royal guests what it all meant. Remember what we’ve learned from Daniel in this shocking experience thus far?
