He had been set up by his enemies. Daniel was one of the favourites of Darius I of Persia. His competitors talked Darius into making a new law that forbade anyone to ask blessings from anyone else but Darius knowing full well that Daniel prayed to his god three times a day. The punishment was to be thrown to the lions. Daniel was confronted and thrown in with the beasts and told that if his god protected him, he would ho free. The next day Darius came to check and Daniel was alright. He was released and his accusers were eaten (Daniel 6: 1-28). Rubens painted it on massive painting (330,5 cm wide) but we don’t know for whom. It could well be that he was fascinated with lions and the story was a good excuse to paint them. He worked for the Habsburg court in Brussels and they owned an elaborate menagerie. That meant that he had access to real lions and that was not an opportunity to pass up. If you look closely at especially the sleeping lion you can tell he spent a lot of time observing bored animals in a zoo environment. He must have made many drawings of animals there that he would use for years to come. In fact, two of the lions on this painting I have shown you before. I have included a detail of it here, but you will have to scroll back to see the rest. Clearly they are the same lions in the same pose, in this case painted by Rubens’ friend Jan Breughel who must have borrowed the drawings. By the way, Rubens did not follow the Biblical story to the letter, because in the Bible Daniel would have to be about eighty years old. Daniel in the Lions Den, Peter Paul Rubens, between 1614 and 1616, National Gallery of Art, Washington DC. .

I love church! Church is where fun, cookies, and friends are. I also get to ride the “edidator” to the children’s rooms and (best part) learn about Jesus! And sometimes I play in front of church with friends afterwards. It’s a huge bonus that the floor slopes slightly toward the pulpit, because I can extreme wheelchair down there ...usually with someone running behind me to keep me from crashing. . . We all love our small church family, too. ❤️ . . . #spinabifida #hydrocephalus #helloadventurechuck #churchfamily #ilovejesus #wheelchairlife #sundayfunday #sofun #sohappy #extremewheelchairing #biblestories #churchisfamily

Pharaoh and his army drown in the Red Sea, as described in the Book of Exodus: 'And the Lord said to Moses: Stretch forth thy hand over the sea, that the waters may come again upon the Egyptians, upon their chariots and horsemen. And when Moses had stretched forth his hand towards the sea, it returned at the first break of day to the former place: and as the Egyptians were fleeing away, the waters came upon them, and the Lord shut them up in the middle of the waves. And the waters returned, and covered the chariots and the horsemen of all the army of Pharao, who had come into the sea after them, neither did there so much as one of them remain. But the children of Israel marched through the midst of the sea upon dry land, and the waters were to them as a wall on the right hand and on the left: And the Lord delivered Israel in that day out of the hands of the Egyptians' (Exodus 14:26-30). This miniature comes from a sixteenth-century manuscript of 'Le Livre nommé Fleur de vertu,' a French translation by François de Rohan of the fourteenth-century Italian moral text, 'Fiore di virtù.' It is now in the BnF (MS fr. 1877, f. 34v).⁣⠀ •⁣⠀ •⁣⠀ •⁣⠀ #pharaoh #bible #exodus #bookofexodus #oldtestament #scripture #biblestories #redsea #israelites #moses #sixteenthcentury #manuscript #manuscriptillumination #medievalmanuscript #bnf #paris #bibliothequenationaledefrance #crossingtheredsea #miracle #miracle #miracles #divineintervention #medievalart #middleages #medievalfrance #1500s #medievalworld #medievaltimes #medievalhistory
