Babylon. The Babylonian king was a pagan (idol worshipper) and he treated the
Israelites badly. Daniel raised the people's hope that God will deliver them.
DAY 140 IT IS GOOD TO EAT VEGETABLES
Bible Passage Daniel 1:3-17.
Do you like to eat vegetables? I know some children who do not, but it is because they
do not know what they are missing! The Bible does not say exactly which vegetables
Daniel and his friends ate but some people think it was mainly beans or beanlike
vegetables. There are many vegetables in different countries. They give us not only
energy, but a lot of Iron for making blood and vitamins which protect us from illness.
There are certain groups of people today who eat only vegetables. They must eat a
good variety to maintain a healthy diet.
TODAY'S ACTION
Ask your teacher about the type/group of foods vegetables belong to. Make a list of
the ones found in this country.
