Descrizione

King Belshazzar recoils in the banquet hall as a mysterious hand writes divine judgment upon the palace wall: MENE, MENE, TEKEL, UPHARSIN. Surrounded by nobles, cups, rich drapery, and royal ornament, the Babylonian ruler sees his revelry interrupted by the living God. The scene draws from Daniel 5, where Belshazzar profanes the sacred vessels taken from the temple in Jerusalem and praises lifeless idols of gold, silver, bronze, iron, wood, and stone. The inscription announces that his kingdom has been numbered, weighed, and divided. This artwork emphasizes the biblical warning against pride, sacrilege, and false worship, while pointing to the sovereignty of God over kings and empires. It is suited for teaching on Daniel, Old Testament prophecy, divine judgment, humility, and the enduring phrase “the writing on the wall.”

Scritture	Daniel 5:1-6 Daniel 5:22-28 Daniel 5:30-31 Daniel 5 1 King Belshazzar made a great feast for a thousand of his lords and drank wine in front of the thousand. 2 Belshazzar, when he tasted the wine, commanded that the vessels of gold and of silver that Nebuchadnezzar his father had taken out of the temple in Jerusalem be brought, that the king and his lords, his wives, and his concubines might drink from them. 3 Then they brought in the golden vessels that had been taken out of the temple, the house of God in Jerusalem, and the king and his lords, his wives, and his concubines drank from them. 4 They drank wine and praised the gods of gold and silver, bronze, iron, wood, and stone. 5 Immediately the fingers of a human hand appeared and wrote on the plaster of the wall of the king's palace, opposite the lampstand. And the king saw the hand as it wrote. 6 Then the king's color changed, and his thoughts alarmed him; his limbs gave way, and his knees knocked together. Daniel 5 22 And you his son, Belshazzar, have not humbled your heart, though you knew all this, 23 but you have lifted up yourself against the Lord of heaven. And the vessels of his house have been brought in before you, and you and your lords, your wives, and your concubines have drunk wine from them. And you have praised the gods of silver and gold, of bronze, iron, wood, and stone, which do not see or hear or know, but the God in whose hand is your breath, and whose are all your ways, you have not honored. 24 “Then from his presence the hand was sent, and this writing was inscribed. 25 And this is the writing that was inscribed: MENE, MENE, TEKEL, and PARSIN. 26 This is the interpretation of the matter: MENE, God has numbered the days of your kingdom and brought it to an end; 27 TEKEL, you have been weighed in the balances and found wanting; 28 PERES, your kingdom is divided and given to the Medes and Persians.” Daniel 5 30 That very night Belshazzar the Chaldean king was killed. 31 And Darius the Mede received the kingdom, being about sixty-two years old.
