In today's first reading we hear the story of Belshazzar's Feast when he brought the vessels from the Temple to be used in his party. A hand appears writing on the wall. The prophet Daniel interprets them as a condemnation of Belshezzar's rule and the coming destruction of his empire.
William Walton wrote a wonderful piece based on this Biblical story.
