Daniel In The Lions Den

In the Sixth century BC, during the captivity of the Jews in Babylon,

the Babylonian King commanded all Jews not to pray to their God but

the prophet Daniel continued to pray to his God against the command

of the King. As a result, Daniel was thrown into a lions' den to be devoured,

But God sent an angel to protect him, and he emerged miraculously

unharmed the next day.

Artisan Sweet carved this sculpture with sese wood and named it

"daniel in the lion'sden" to illustrate how God protects His folowers in an

impossibly hostile situation.
