In this lesson on Daniel 5, Stephen Davey explains how the fall of Babylon demonstrates the danger of pride and the certainty of God’s judgment. During a lavish feast, King Belshazzar openly dishonors God by using sacred vessels from the Jerusalem temple, and a mysterious hand appears to write a message of judgment on the wall. Daniel interprets the message, declaring that God has weighed the king and his kingdom and found them wanting. That very night Babylon falls to the Medes and Persians, proving that earthly power cannot stand against God’s authority. Davey emphasizes that those who ignore God’s warnings and exalt themselves will ultimately face His righteous judgment.
