A Study in the Book of Daniel

The Book of Daniel is a key book in understanding Bible prophecy. Prophecy centers in the nation of Israel and the role that the nation will play in God's plan for the earth.

At the writing of the book of Daniel, the nation is being taken into captivity for its sin and rebellion against God. God's purpose in the book of Daniel is to communicate to Israel and to the nations that He is using Israel's captivity to Brin in the "Times of the Gentiles" (i.e. the rule of the Gentiles over Israel and the world) but only as a temporary situation. He is doing it for the chastening of the disobedient nation. That nation was called of God to be His nation on the earth. Through God's work in chastening of that favored nation, it will again one day be His nation. Israel will then be God's means of blessing the Gentile nations under the reign of their Messiah.

Bible Prophecy focuses on the entire Bible outside of the Pauline Epistles. The theme of prophecy is the kingdom reign of Israel's Messiah over the earth. "A Study in the Book of Daniel: The Kingdom of Heaven in Prophecy" is the first of four books in the author's Prophecy Series. The second of this series is "Matthew's Gospel: A Study of the King and His Kingdom." The third book is "A Study in Hebrews: Israel and the New Covenant." And the fourth and last in the series is "A Study in the Revelation: The End Time Fulfillment of Bible Prophecy."

Each chapter in the study in Daniel is keyed to the corresponding chapter in the Biblical book of Daniel. Study guid questions at the end of each chapter serves as a guide to the Bible student. The answers to the study questions are found in the chapter in sequential order. In answering the study questions, the student gains a working knowledge of Bible Prophecy.
