- www.truthforlife.org || By: Alistair Begg - King Belshazzar threw an extravagant feast marked by sacrilege, idolatry, and pride. Although he knew how God had dealt with Nebuchadnezzar, Belshazzar failed to humble himself before the Lord. Alistair Begg explains that this story represents a major theme of Daniel, that God has authority over every earthly ruler and kingdom, and He is the only one worthy of our worship. No one is innocent before God, but He freely offers forgiveness to those who humble themselves before His goodness and power.
I once heard Rev. Begg say, "There once was a pastor named Spurgey, who wasn't much into liturgy. But his sermons were fine, and I preach them as mine, and so does the rest of the clergy." Alistair has definitely followed in the line of Spurgeon. Pastors such as myself are very indebted to Rev. Begg.
What a clouded/confounded statement!
Faithful Servant....Praying for your protection...success and course.

Seems relevant given the current circumstances.
But instead of Perez, the scripture quotes 'upharsin'. How come nothing is spoken of it anywhere? Please help if you know on this.
This is what I found:
“UPHARSIN” = Aramaic/Chaldee for “divisions” = “Thy kingdom is divided, and given to the Medes and Persians” (Daniel 5:28). Belshazzar’s kingdom is being split between the Medes and Persians. The writing on the wall read “UPHARSIN” while Daniel himself used “PERES.” Why? “UPHARSIN” is plural (“divisions”); “PERES” is singular (“divided”). Babylon is being divided once into two branches (Media and Persia will take their respective portions). There is no contradiction here, just a linguistic inflection (variation) to highlight two different aspects of this prophecy (one separation into two segments).
Where is this at?
