Daniel was born in Judah, while Yehoyakim still reigned, shortly before the First Destruction. Daniel was carried off from Judah to Babylonia as a youngster. This is how the verses in Daniel ch.1 are understood.

∙ 14y agoAccording to Daniel chapter 1, the boy Daniel was born in Judah and taken to Babylon. However, this is of dubious value, as the Book of Daniel, actually written in the second century BCE, contains important historical errors about the time of the Babylonian Exile. A book written so long after the events that it seeks to describe, and with so many historical errors, can not be a reliable source for information about the childhood of its key characters.

How old was Darius when he threw Daniel into the lion's den?
The Book of Daniel does not say how old Darius was when he threw Daniel into the lion's den. It seems to have happened soon after Darius conquered Babylon, so presumably in this story, Darius was still a reasonably young man.The story should not be confused with history, so we can not look to the history books for an answer: the Book of Daniel only loosely corresponds to the history of the period. In history, it was not Darius who conquered Babylon, but Cyrus, and in history no one called Daniel ever held the powerful posts in both the Babylonian Empire and the Persian, as portrayed in Daniel. In other words, the Book of Daniel was a second-century-BCE novel and questions about its characters must be answered from what can be gleaned within the book.
