In Chapter Fifteen of The Chronicles of Belteshazzar, Ezekiel comes to Babylon to deliver a message from Jeremiah to Daniel. When he gets to the area where his friends Abednego, Meshach and Shadrach live, fighting suddenly breaks out between competing gangs of youths. Before he realizes what is happening, Ezekiel is caught up in a dragnet of Babylonian soldiers seeking to put down the riot. Shadrach finds him and orders the soldiers to set Ezekiel free. I conclude the episode by talking about an experience when I was 16, in which I got caught up in a rumble between competing groups of youths. This is the sort of issue many young people face. Using the movie, The Three Musketeers, I talk about how we as adults need to prepare them and guide them for when such a time inevitably comes. Just to let you know, I’ve begun the process of preparing The Chronicles of Belteshazzar for publication. To learn more about this, visit https://www.wisejargon.com/chronicles
