In Chapter Nine of The Chronicles of Belteshazzar, Matthew and the other grandsons ask Grandpa if the meeting between Daniel and the Captain of the Babylonian Guard really took place. This conversation leads to a discussion about how a 1990s Science Fiction show, Babylon 5, inspired me to come up with some of the ideas that lead to the creation of a council headed by Daniel to try to quell the unrest among exile communities. I’ll conclude with a discussion of a statement by the Apostle Paul in Ephesians 6 that is echoed by one of the main characters in the TV show, Babylon 5.
