Daniel and the Revelation

His [Daniel's] prophecy is, in many respects, the most remarkable of any in the sacred record. It is the most comprehensive. It was the first prophecy giving a consecutive history of the world from that time to the end. It located the most of its predictions within well-defined prophetic periods, though reaching many centuries into the future. It gave the first definite chronological prophecy of the coming of the Messiah. It marksd the time of this event so definitely that the Jews forbid any attempt to interpret its numbers, since that prophecy shows them to be without excuse in rejecting Christ; and so accurately had its minute and literal predictions been fufilled down to the time of Porphyry, A.D. 250, that he declared (the only loophole he could devise for his hard-pressed skeptisism) that the predictions were not written in the age of Babylon, but after the events themselves had occurred. This evasion, however, is not now available; for every succeeding century has borne additional evidence to the truthfulness of the prophecy, and we are just now, in our own day, approaching the climax of its fulfillment. --- excerpt from book's introduction

Excellent

I have gone through this book twice in my studies of the prophetic books of Daniel and Revelation. In my estimation it is the best book on the subject in or out of print. The book goes verse by verse, giving clear commentry, and is easy to understand.

Explains clearly and in FULL

I definitely disagree with one of the reviews i read on this site about Daniel and Revelation. Obviously people are going to doubt no matter what, but what was said made me wonder if they actually read the book. This book along with sited scripture, explains the history that has proven prophecy true. The Word of God stands the test of time, and this is a description and explanation comparing the historical events to the symbolism of scripture. It is a great book for anyone who has ever questioned faith, God, prophecy or the Bible's validity. A great book and i recommend it to all who may read it.

DANIEL AND THE REVELATION

DANIEL AND THE REVELATION IS ONE OF THE MOST EXPLORATIVE AND IN DEPTH BOOKS I HAVE READ. THE BOOK GIVES THE READER A CLEAR UNDERSTANDING OF PROPHECY. I HAVE TESTED THIS BOOK AGAINST THE BIBLE, AND IT STANDS THE TEST OF TIME. I NO LONGER HAVE DANIEL AND THE REVELATION, AND CAN NOT FIND IT IN BOOKSTORES. IF YOU CAN SUGGEST A BOOKSTORE I WOULD APPRECIATE IT VERY MUCH.

This is the clearest explanation I have ever read..

The strength of this book is that it aligns history with scripture and they agree. Wonderful detailed explanations of the books of Daniel and Revelation. I would recommend to any serious student of the Bible.
