Daniel 1:16

“So the steward took away their dainties, and the wine that they should drink, and gave them pulse.”

Verse in context — Daniel 1

So he listened to them in this matter, and proved them ten days.

At the end of ten days their faces appeared fairer, and they were fatter in flesh, than all the youths who ate of the king's dainties.

So the steward took away their dainties, and the wine that they should drink, and gave them pulse.

Now as for these four youths, God gave them knowledge and skill in all learning and wisdom: and Daniel had understanding in all visions and dreams.

At the end of the days which the king had appointed for bringing them in, the prince of the eunuchs brought them in before Nebuchadnezzar.

Stories of faith in exile and visions of God’s ultimate kingdom.
