   you do know, of course, that there were a large number of Jews who   
   stayed in Babylonia and Persia after the displacement in the 500s b.c.   
   who never returned to Judea and some are there to this day.   
      
   Daniel even wrote a piece on the coming Messiah, didn't he?   
      
   so?   
      
   that's all, i just thought i'd mention it.   
      
   one of the 3 may have been a Jew, members of the larger caravan as well.   
      
      
   it's not like they just fell from no where asking about "king of the Jews"
