Daniel 9 - Daniel’s Prayer for Redeemption

According to Daniel's calculation, the seventy years of exile of babylonia should be over, but the people of Judea remain in exile. In one of the most moving prayers in the Bible, danioel beseeches God to end teh suffering of His people. Gabriel once again appears and explains that although God is listening to his prayers, and adores them, things aren't going to be so simple.
