Often we read the book of Daniel in one of two ways--either as a
book about a heroic man whose righteousness should inspire us to
keep the faith no matter what our circumstances, or as a roadmap to
the end times that can, through careful study, perhaps tell us the
day and hour (or nearly so) of Christ's return. Both, says Bryan
Chapell, are sadly missing the bigger picture, that "God" is the
hero of this story and he is in the midst of his unrelenting plan
to rescue his people from their sin and its consequences. We
mustn't simply make the man Daniel the object of our worship nor
the subject of our debates. We may differ about prophetic details,
Chapell says, but we should never miss the point that the book of
Daniel is, like all of Old Testament Scripture, pointing us toward
the grace of God, ultimately revealed in Christ.
Pastors, teachers, and individual Christians studying the book of
Daniel will find this volume a welcome addition to their library.
