PJ Library Presents: Have I Got A Story For You!

Today we’re reading a section from the Song of Songs, found in the Tanach.  Some believe that King Solomon might have written this poem about someone he loved. Several Jewish sages think of the poem as a metaphor for the love between God and human beings. Another way you could imagine parts of this poem, which is often read by Jewish families on Shabbat, is about the beautiful and unbreakable love between parents and children.

Today’s story comes from the second Book of Kings in the Tanach. It’s a story about how much we can learn from mentors, and how we carry our friends with us, even when we are not always with them.

Today’s story, “Daniel in the Lion’s Den,” comes from the Book of Daniel. That’s the part of the Bible called "Ketuvim," which is the Hebrew word for “writings.”
