Introduction

authorship, audience, history

Two accounts here show Daniel exposing a fraud. He proves the god Bel does not eat the food left for him by scattering ash on the temple floor overnight and reading the footprints, then destroys a serpent the Babylonians worship. Greek copies of Daniel carry both as a closing chapter.
