Today, teachers Sam Castor and Linda Cherry discuss this week's Come Follow Me lesson which is found in Daniel 1–6, of the Old Testament.

In the first chapter of the book of Daniel, we see that King Nebuchadnezzar of Babylon has laid siege to Jerusalem. Daniel and his young friends are among the Jews who are taken captive to Babylon, which is some 500 miles east of Jerusalem as the crow flies, but closer to 800–1000 miles of travel by the normal trade routes of the day.

The gross wickedness of the Jews at this time made them weak and unable to defend themselves. Likewise, their lifestyles had separated them from the Lord and His help.

The major message of the next several verses is this: Living according to the Lord’s law of health provides both physical and spiritual blessings.
