Have you ever wondered why the wise men, the magi, were searching the stars for signs of a coming king? Who were they looking for? How did they know a king would be born to the Jews? Deep in the pages of the Old Testament the clues begin with the story of a young man who was captured and taken to serve the king of another country, hundreds of miles from his home. Daniel and his people were marched on foot to exile in Babylon for 70 long years. We know, too, that while there, he and many of his friends stood strong for God even while serving in the Babylon kings’ palaces. But after chapter 12 the book is closed.
