Daniel: The Prophet of Fire and Silence

By D. Michael Gross

Jerusalem burns. Babylon feasts. Between them stands a boy who refuses to forget who he is.

Daniel begins as a captive-an educated exile drafted into the empire that destroyed his home. Yet the real battle is not for his life, but for his soul. The king's table offers comfort; his conscience demands defiance. From the fiery furnace to the lions' den, from Nebuchadnezzar's madness to Belshazzar's blasphemy, Daniel endures every empire's favorite temptation: worship the noise and call it truth.

In this cinematic and deeply human retelling, D. Michael Gross turns a familiar Bible story into living theology. Each chapter peels back the grandeur to reveal the man beneath the miracle-a quiet servant who learned to pray when heaven refused to speak.

Across twenty carefully paced chapters, Daniel: The Prophet of Fire and Silence traces the arc of a lifetime: from the boy who knelt in exile to the old man who waited by the river, still believing that silence could be sacred. Historical detail grounds every page; theological depth elevates it beyond simple narrative. The result is a work of literary theology that honors scripture while confronting the modern reader's own Babylon-faith amid confusion, courage amid compromise, endurance amid absence.
