Can You Solve These?

I love cryptograms, anagrams, pictograms, crosswords and just about any other kind of word or math puzzle. Here's a pictogram, the beginning of a Bible verse:

Or how about these anagrams of Bible characters?

1. ENHANCE BUZZARD _________________________________

2. TENTH ASH PIT JOB _______________________________

3. EMPTIER SON _____________________________________

Secret message, anyone? How about some word searches? Sudoku? Kakuro? Word ladders? You'll find hundreds of puzzles, entirely Bible-themed in BRAIN POWER PUZZLES 8, just released for $13.99 on Amazon.

Answers to above: the pictogram says "When you pray do not be like the hypocrites."

The anagrams are #1 Nebuchadnezzar #2 John the Baptist #3 Simon Peter

I wrote this short story and hid my own coded message within as well. After you read how Danny solves his mystery go back and look for my message. Comment below with your solution.

Danny’s Puzzle

Grabbing his pencil Danny set to work again practicing the letters from the workbook his friend, Arnie, had lent him. It was so strange to make the weird symbols and to go from right to left across the page, but he had watched Arnie do it with ease and, though he knew his friend had been in Hebrew school for years, Danny felt that mastering the twenty-two letters within the month was a reasonable goal for himself. Arnie’s bar mitzvah was Danny’s target date and he was the type of kid whose competitiveness would keep him focused. He wasn’t trying to actually learn the difficult ancient language; he just wanted to be able to recognize the letters and maybe a few words.
