Daniel ch.1 - The Jew in a Foreign Culture

The Tanakh Podcast - A podcast by Alex Israel

Today we introduce the book and figure of Daniel.Daniel is a personality who is very much in dialogue with other "Jews in a foreign court" - the Biblical Joseph and Mordechai and Esther (And Nehemiah) - but quite different. Daniel is a proud, open Jew, who observes his Jewish practices loudly and unashamedly even as he serves as an advisor to a world leader.
