The books of Ezekiel and Daniel are rich in imagery that is taken
up afresh in the New Testament. Echoes of Ezekiel-with its words of
doom and hope, vision of a new temple, and scroll-eating
prophet-are especially apparent in the book of Revelation. Daniel
is most notable in supplying terminology and imagery for Jesus of
Nazareth's favored self-description as "Son of man," a phrase also
found in Ezekiel. The four beasts of Daniel find their counterparts
in the lion, ox, man, and eagle of Ezekiel and Revelation. It is no
wonder these books, despite the difficulties in interpreting them,
took hold on the imagination of the early church. In this Ancient
Christian Commentary on Scripture volume, over forty church fathers
are cited in the commentary on Ezekiel, some of whom are here
translated into English for the first time, but pride of place goes
to four significant extant works: the homilies of Origen and
Gregory the Great, and the commentaries of Jerome and Theodoret of
Cyr, thus bridging East and West, North and South. A similar array
of fathers are found within the commentary on Daniel. Extensive
comments derive from the works of Theodoret of Cyr, Hippolytus,
Jerome, and Isho'dad of Merv, providing a wealth of insight.
