The unthinkable happened this day in history, as the widely-respected Hebrew statesman, Daniel, was thrown into a lions’ den. Well-liked by King Darius himself, Daniel was thrown into the pit for breaking a decree that prohibited prayer to anyone but the king for 30 days.
When Daniel broke the law by praying to his God, YAHWEH, he was arrested and taken away to be thrown in the pit.
King Darius appears to have been caught off guard by Daniel’s arrest. Before Daniel was thrown into the pit, the monarch told him that he hoped Daniel’s God would save him.
