Susanna is a biblical figure featured in a narrative within the Book of Daniel. According to the text, she was a virtuous Hebrew woman who was falsely accused of adultery by two elders after they caught her bathing in her garden. Refusing to yield to their blackmail, she faced a death sentence until the young Daniel intervened. By cross-examining the accusers, Daniel exposed their conflicting testimonies, leading to their execution and Susanna's exoneration. She is recognized as a saint in Catholic, Orthodox, and Anglican traditions.
