Many of you sports fans will remember Dandy Don Meredith, former great quarterback for the Dallas Cowboys, and later an announcer for Monday Night football. At that moment in a game when Don felt that one team was too far ahead for the other teach to catch, he would sing a little ditty with these words, "Turn out the Lights! The party’s over." Never was that song more appropriate than in the scene depicted in the fifth chapter of Daniel. Let me give you the historical setting. Old King Nebuchadnezzar, whom we talked about last week, is dead. His son and grandson, Nabonidus and Belshazzar, are co-regents of the Kingdom. Belshazzar is referred to as King. The year is 539 B.C. God’s faithful servant Daniel is an elder statesman by this time, in his 70’s. We know a lot about the events of this…
