Daniel asserts the meaning of history is that God's kingdom is coming. As it does, faithful people persevere in their work for God. Believers can rely on the certainties the book proclaims: God is sovereign over human affairs and is effectively bringing in his eternal kingdom, which will encompass all nations. Paul House shows how Daniel rewards readers who embrace its historical, literary and theological features as key means of personal and community formation.

A excellent new commentary on the Old Testament book
