From Chapter 5:17-31 of the prophecy of Daniel (דָנִיאֶל), brother Gideon Levytam points to Daniel’s godly attitude. Daniel did not want to receive any reward from king Belshazzar, who was the godless unthankful king of Babylon. King Belshazzar lifted up his heart in pride against the Lord of heaven. He defiled the vessels that were used for the worship of Israel’s God in the Jerusalem temple, drank wine in them and praised the gods of silver, gold, brass, iron, wood, and stone. Daniel declared God’s judgment on king Belshazzar by saying, "God hath numbered thy kingdom, and finished it. Thou art weighed in the balances, and art found wanting. Thy kingdom is divided, and given to the Medes and Persians."
