This series aims to present, according to a standard outline and
methodology, a form-critical analysis of every book and each unit
in the Old Testament (Hebrew Bible). Fundamentally exegetical, the
FOTL volumes examine the structure, genre, setting, and intention
of the biblical literature in question. Designed to be used
alongside a Hebrew text or a translation of the Bible, the series
is meant primarily to lead the student to the Old Testament texts
themselves, not just to form-critical studies of the texts. Each
volume includes thorough bibliographies and a glossary of the
genres and formulas identified in the commentary.

Daniel, with an Introduction to Apocalyptic Literture is Volume XX
of The Forms of the Old Testament Literature, a series that aims to
present a form-critical analysis of every book and each unit in the
Hebrew Bible. Fundamentally exegetical, the FOTL volumes examine
the structure, genre, setting, and intention of the biblical
literature in question. They also study the history behind the
form-critical discussion of the material, attempt to bring
consistency to the terminology for the genres and formulas of the
biblical literature, and expose the exegetical process so as to
enable students and pastors to engage in their own analysis and
interpretation of the Old Testament texts. In his introduction to
Jewish apocalyptic literature, John J. Collins examines the main
characteristics and discusses the setting and intention of
apocalyptic literature. Collins begins his discussion of Daniel
with a survey of the book's anomalies and an examination of the
bearing of form criticism on them. He goes on to discuss the book's
place in the canon and the problems with its coherence and
bilingualism. Collins's section-by-section commentary provides a
structural analysis (verse-by-verse) of each section, as well as
discussion of its genre, setting, and intention. The book includes
bibliographies and a glossary of genres and formulas that offers
concise definitions with examples and bibliography.
