Describe the splendour of King Artaxerxes' palace in Susa. Out of all the richly-clad nobles attending court, our 'camera' homes in on the cupbearer to the king. Explain that Nehemiah was like Daniel, a Jew living in exile, but privileged to be ***a close and respected official in the service of*** the king.
