REC: Daniel

The book of Daniel is both familiar and unfamiliar to many Christians. The
stories of the fiery furnace and Daniel in the lion's den are the staples of
children's Bible story books and Sunday school classes. Yet the latter chapters
of Daniel's vision are more unfamiliar and daunting to most believers, who may
have been exposed to a variety of end-times speculations constructed from an
amalgam of these texts and others drawn from elsewhere in the Bible. But Iain
M. Duguid reminds Christians that Daniel gives us more than moral lessons or a
prophetic timetable. The whole of the book points us to Christ, whether as the
one greater than Daniel who has perfectly lived an exilic life of service and
separation for us or as the exalted heavenly Son of Man who took flesh amongst
us.'Readers will be grateful for the reverence and care given to the
sacred text, plus the wise application to today's church midst her Babylons.
This is a must-read for anyone desiring to understand and live in the dazzling
light of Daniel. Warmly commended.' - R. Kent Hughes'I'm a
pastor, not a scholar. When you read Iain Duguid, it is clear he is both. Like
his other works, this commentary is a rare blend of insightful exegesis and
discerning application. What's more, with Iain's guidance you'll find the
glories of Christ shining through texts that can otherwise appear obscure and
irrelevant. This book will educate pastors, edify Christians, and advance the
proclamation of the gospel.' - C.J. MahaneySeries: Reformed
