The Book of Susanna [in Daniel]
[The History of Susanna [in Daniel]]
Set apart from the beginning of Daniel, because it is not in the
Hebrew, as neither the Narration of Bel and the Dragon.
1:1 There dwelt a man in Babylon, called Joacim:
1:2 And he took a wife, whose name was Susanna, the daughter of
Chelcias, a very fair woman, and one that feared the Lord.
1:3 Her parents also were righteous, and taught their daughter
according to the law of Moses.
1:4 Now Joacim was a great rich man, and had a fair garden joining unto
his house: and to him resorted the Jews; because he was more honourable
than all others.
1:5 The same year were appointed two of the ancients of the people to
be judges, such as the Lord spake of, that wickedness came from Babylon
from ancient judges, who seemed to govern the people.
1:6 These kept much at Joacim’s house: and all that had any suits in
law came unto them.
1:7 Now when the people departed away at noon, Susanna went into her
husband’s garden to walk.
