The Old Testament book of Daniel contains well-known stories:
Daniel in the den of lions, his three companions in a fiery
furnace, and the strange handwriting on the wall at Belshazzar's
feast, which struck terror in the heart of the Babylonian king.
However, the book can be difficult to understand. Along with
stories about Judean exiles working in the court of pagan kings
(chapters 1-6), it also consists of Daniel's enigmatic visions and
prophecies about the future (chapters 7-12). It is written in two
languages, Hebrew and Aramaic, and the language division does not
match the subject division. Ralph Davis explores the book's
background, discusses significant interpretative issues and
problems, and offers a lively exposition of Daniel's message, which
may be summed up in the words of Jesus: 'the end is not yet ... but
the one who endures to the end will be saved' (Mark 13:7, 13). The
book is essentially 'a realistic survival manual for the saints',
still vitally relevant for the church in today's world.
