Genre: RELIGION / Biblical Studies/Old Testament/Prophet

Release Date: December 1, 2020

For more than four decades, Alan Stringfellow’s Bible studies have brought greater insight into

God’s Word to thousands of believers. Now, the author of Through the Bible in One Year and Great Characters of the Bible leads readers on a 12-lesson, verse-by-verse study of the book of Daniel. Stringfellow’s in-depth teaching will bring clarity and understanding to one of the most misunderstood books in Scripture. With this study, readers will learn…

How to identify the major themes
How to memorize key verses
How to recognize God’s central message
An overview of various interpretations of the book’s imagery
The role Daniel’s prophesies play in the entire biblical story

By embarking on this journey, believers will discover the influence that Daniel had on the life and literature of the Jewish people throughout the biblical period and all the way to the writers of the New Testament, including Jesus Christ Himself, who often quoted from it. But nowhere is that influence seen as thoroughly as in the writings of the apostle John and parallels that exist with the book of Revelation. As in John’s prophetic work, the book of Daniel describes in beautiful and marvelous language the glorious coming of our Lord, Jesus Christ. Like John, Daniel was sure and certain about the final triumph of the kingdom of God.

My Thoughts:

As the title suggests, this book takes an in depth look at the Book of Daniel. It's quite clear that the author has done a lot of research and you can tell he is well read. This book looks verse by verse at the book of Daniel and explains/compares to give you what the author believes the verse to read.

This isn't a quick, speed through read but a study that you should take some time and actually pull out your Bible and see if you agree or disagree with the author. There are several points I agree with him, but several more that I do not. Overall, I think the author did a lot of research and put a lot of thought into the book.

It was a 3/5 for me.
