A week ago, I heard Ravi Zacharias on the radio.
He had an interesting slant on Daniel's refusal to eat the fancy food provided by the king's staff.
Zacharias said something like this:

May I do the same.
Thanks for reading!

The title is from Psalm 84:11.
The Wikipedia is usually a pretty good reference. I mostly use the World English Bible (WEB), because it is public domain. I am grateful.
