Summary

"The Expositor's Bible: The Book of Daniel" by F. W. Farrar is a commentary that explores the Book of Daniel, focusing on its place in the Bible and its debated true history. It considers the prophet Daniel's life during the Babylonian captivity showing how he had a high status with rulers, but also points out that there is not hard evidence to prove that some parts of his life actually happened. The commentary gets ready for a careful look at the book's important ideas, the way it's written, and how people have understood it over time, promising to break down the prophecies, historical stories, and moral lesons of Daniel. Farrar helps both experts and regular readers to understand the Book of Daniel better, by thinking about the book's meaning and its lessons.
