Though The Bible or even Jewish tradition does not tell us wither or not Daniel was a Levite (of the tribe of Levi, one of Jacob/Israel's twelve sons). It is likely that he was of the tribe of Judea, since they were the tribe which the kings descended from. And in Babylon that was sort of Daniel role, a leader and ruler.

No. The Bible specifically states that he is of the Tribe of Ephraim. This is made clear in both Numbers 13:8 and 1 Chronicles 7:20, 27.

Later, when things went awry with the golden calf at Sinai, another covenant was given and the priesthood was taken away from the family and given to Aaron.

How many men named Jesus in Jewish history?

The name Jesus is the Greek form of 'Joshua', but the Greek form is only used in the Bible when referring to Jesus Christ. Joshua is one of the most common names in the entire Bible, but always as a great leader or high priest. Of course, we have Joshua, son of Nun, who is reported to have conquered the Canaanites. There were also Joshua the Bet-Shemite and Joshua, governor of the city of Jericho (2 Kings chapter 23). Later, Zechariah had apocalyptic visions, in which Joshua the high priest had been found guilty of iniquity, but the Lord needed Joshua and was willing to offer him inducements and honour. Interestlingly, the Bible says that the high priest Joshua, son of Jozadak or Josedec (Joseph), assisted Zorobabel in rebuilding the Temple following the Return from Exile of the Jews. In the list of Israelites that returned from the Babylonian Exile, Ezra also records that a Joshua was head of the priestly family of Phahath Moab, while another was head of the priestly family of Idaia, or Jedaia. This is an improbably high proportion of heads of priestly families who were called Joshua, yet no other person listed, not even anyone's father, was called Joshua. Either the name Joshua was quite common at the time of the Return, or it was not, and there could be statistical evidence in the Bible that the name Joshua (Jesus) already had important religious associations.
