Who created the Babylonian empire in 1787 BC?

There were many things going on in that area. Nebuchadnezzar of Babylon builds a high dam that is roughly 16 mi long, joining the Tigris to the Euphrates and creating a giant lake behind it. In the Near East, the first half of this century was dominated by the Neo-Babylonian or Chaldean empire, which had risen to power late in the previous century after successfully rebelling against Assyrian rule. The Kingdom of Judah came to an end in 586 BC when Babylonian forces under Nebuchadnezzar II captured Jerusalem, and removed most of its population to their own lands. Babylonian rule was toppled however in the 540s, by Cyrus, who founded the Persian Empire in its place. The Persian Empire continued to expand and grew into the greatest empire the world had known at the time.

How did the prophet Daniel live under God's will?

A:The Book of Daniel says that Daniel was steadfast in his worship of God, regardless ofthe dangers placed in his way. He became the second most important person in the Babylonian empire of Nebuchadnezzar, although Nebuchadnezzar's son and successor seems not to have known about him. On the same evidence, he subsequently became the second most important person in the Persian empire, after Darius conquered the Babylonians. However, biblical scholars say that the Book of Daniel was a second-century-BCE novel, written long after the Babylonian Exile that was the setting for the book. Just one of the many historical errors is that it was Cyrus the Great who conquered Babylon, not Darius. From a historical perspective, there never was a Daniel, so he never really lived under God's will.
