It would be difficult to top Paul Tanner's introductory words about the book of Daniel, so we won't try. "The book of Daniel, undoubtedly one of the most unique books in the Bible, has fascinated Christian readers throughout the centuries. ... The stories and visions, while they make for entertaining reading, also provide significant revelation about God and his sovereign control of the nations of the world, the rise of the end-times antichrist, and the divine plan for history that culminates in the kingdom of God being entrusted to the Messiah. The book is thus rich in biblical theology. In fact, Daniel is probably the most foundational book in the Old Testament for New Testament eschatology" (Daniel, Evangelical Exegetical Commentary, 1).
To help us better understand this "most foundational book" we welcome back to the Cover-to-Cover series, Dr. Paul Weaver.
