AOTC 20: Daniel
In many ways, the Old Testament book of Daniel is an enigma. It consists of
two different kinds of material: stories about Judean exiles working in the
court of pagan kings (chapters 1-6) and accounts of visions experienced by one
of these exiles (chapters 7-12). It is written in two languages, Hebrew and
Aramaic, and the language division does not match the subject division. Whether
the book's affinities lie more with the Hebrew prophets or with later Jewish
apocalypses is debated, as are its affinities with the wisdom traditions of
both Israel and Babylon.Refreshingly, Lucas postpones much of the
discussion of such issues to an Epilogue, and invites the reader to an
investigation of the meaning of the text in the form in which we now have it.
He identifies the central theme of the book as the sovereignty of the God of
Israel. With even-handedness and clarity, Lucas demonstrates that, for
preachers and teachers, there is much in Daniel that is fairly readily
understandable and applicable, and that there are also theological depths that
are rewarding for those willing to plumb them and wrestle with the issues they
raise. (= 0830825193 / 9780830825196)'Lucas is sensitive to Daniel
as literature and theology.
He provides a special study of the ancient Near Eastern background to the
imager of chapters 7 - 12. Many however [...], will find his argument in favor
of a second-century date for the book weak, though he does argue in a way that
is consistent with a high view of biblical authority.' - Tremper
Longman'At last! A commentary series that combines the best of
biblical scholarship with a passion for the message of the text. Besides, it
actually answers the questions I ask when I read the Scriptures. This series by
the finest evangelical scholars is designed for students and pastors who are
serious about understanding the Old Testament in its context and translating
its message for the church in the twenty-first century.' - Daniel I.
