Daniel’s parents and uncle die when he is young. His father and uncle die at the hands of the Romans and his mother passes on from grief and illness caused by the death of her husband. Daniel hates the Romans and vows to kill them. Daniel and his sister, Leah, are taken in by their grandmother, but because of abject poverty, Daniel is sold as a slave to Amalek. Daniel escapes slavery and joins Rosh, a rebel leader, based in the mountains around Galilee.
While out on his duties, Daniel notices two figures close to the mountainside and later recognizes the two as Joel and Malthace, children of a Rabbi in his hometown. Daniel makes contact with the two siblings. Joel and Daniel bond over their hatred for Romans and the need to support Rosh in his fight against them. Joel and Malthace receive an opportunity to meet Rosh. Rosh invites Joel to stay, but he declines because he needs to take his sister back home.
Later, Rosh sends Daniel to find Joel because they need his help. Daniel arrives at Rabbi Hezron’s place, and although Joel does not hesitate to welcome his friend, Malthace is reluctant in receiving Daniel at their home.
In summary, it is a mixed reception for Daniel. His friend is happy to see him, but the same cannot be said for his sister.
