Daniel was so correct in what he wrote that in the church today, his book is widely rejected due to fact it is said that he wrote it AFTER the fact.
I thought that I would go through the book of Daniel verse by verse as there are moral lessons to be learned as well as historical and political issues.
I believe that there are 3 words that you will find that characterize Daniel and his life.........
1. PURPOSE.
2. PRAYER.
3. PROPHECY.
If we get a lot of VIEWS and COMMENTS, I will be glad to go on. If not I will let the study die.
Daniel 1:1...............
"In the third year of the reign of Jehoiakim king of Judah came Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon unto Jerusalem, and besieged it.
And the Lord gave Jehoiakim king of Judah into his hand, with part of the vessels of the house of God: which he carried into the land of Shinar to the house of his god; and he brought the vessels into the treasure house of his god."
Who wrote the Book of Daniel???? The answer is given in chapters 8:1---9:2 & 10:2 and it was Daniel. Jesus also confirmed it was Daniel in Matthew 24:15.
Also, the Dead Sea Scrolls have validated the fact of an early date for Daniel so as to confirm that ir was written BEFORE the events took place.
We see that Jehoiakim was the king in Jerusalem.
Nebuchadnezzar was the king of Babylon and he invaded Israel in 605 B.C.
When Nebuchadnezzar came against Egypt at Carchemeish and defeated them, he went on to make Judah and Syria and the surrounding nations his subjects to the Babloonian Empire. This action was part of Judah's SEVENTY YEARS (70) of captivity that Jeremiah detailed in his book 25:1-11.
We will see as we progress that this 70 years is the basis for the End of the Age SEVEN (7) years of Tribulation!
