Morning Light - Daniel 01

Today: [Daniel 01] Introduction to Daniel. In this chapter we have the beginning of Daniel, one of the most amazing and astoundingly accurate prophets of the Old Testament canon. The book of Daniel is hotly disputed against by Jewish authorities who refuse to include Daniel among their prophets. Secular historians reject Daniel as well on the basis that his prophecies are so accurate the must have been written after the prophesied events took place. For us, we accept the book of Daniel on its own terms, written by the prophet himself at the same time as Jeremiah and Ezekiel were recording the words of God in the books ascribed to them.
