Messianic Magician

The book of Daniel brings a mystical vibe to the Bible. Like wise Joseph before him, the humble Jewish slave rises to prominence in the highest heathen court in the world by interpreting the king’s disturbing dreams. Neb’s magicians were lore-masters of Chaldean sacred literature but they could not pierce into the mysteries of heaven. Daniel was indeed learned in their knowledge but surpassed them all with the supernatural knowledge which God showed to him. Let this be a lesson to us all: natural knowledge is good but God’s word is far superior, flying higher, shining brighter, and searching out the Mystery of time and space.
