The Book of Daniel with its great prophecies, fulfilled and unfilled, is one of the most important portions of God's Holy Word. No other book has been so much attacked as this prophetic book. For almost 2,000 years wicked men, heathen phi-losophers and infidels have ham-mered away against it; but the Book of Daniel has proven to be an anvil upon which the critics' hammers have been broken into pieces.

Sir Isaac Newton said, "to reject Daniel is to reject the Christian religion". We might say to ignore the great prophecies, which were given to this wonderful man of God, leaves us without any knowl-edge of the prophetic Word con-cerning "things to come".

This chapter by chapter commen-tary is considered by evangelical scholars as the best handbook for all who are beginning a study of the Book of Daniel.
