Semerimus instituted a religious system in which she made herself and her son

Daniel

146
Q

As a teenager, Daniel was one of those of royal blood taken captive

A

by Nebuchadnezzar during the 1st Babylonian siege of Jerusalem in 605 BC.

147
Q

In Captivity, Daniel served without compromise under the

A

administrations of several kings, including Nebuchadnezzar, Belshazzar, and Darius.

148
Q

As a contemporary of Daniel,

A

Ezekiel referred to Daniel 3 times as an example of righteousness and wisdom, comparing him with Noah and Job.

149
Q

Daniel is one of the few well known Bible Characters

151
Q

Theme of Daniel

A

The Revelation of Israel’s Prophetic Future

152
Q

Daniel’s prophecies are so astounding that skeptics have attacked this book more fiercely than almost any other Bible book.

A

The reason for this is simple. If his prophecies are accepted as authentic, they provide irrefutable proof of the Inspiration of Scripture.

153
Q

Daniel Chapter 11 alone has over

A

100 specific historical prophecies which have already been literally fulfilled.

154
Q

The prophecies in Daniel are so accurate that the only attack skeptics can raise after them is to claim that

A

they must have been written after their fulfillments took place and that they only claim to be prophecies.

155
Q

The blasphemous charge that the prophecies in Daniel were written after they happened is ludicrous in light of the fact

A

that many of the prophecies of Daniel were fulfilled after Daniel had been accepted into the Old Testament canon and even translated into the Greek translation of the Old Testament called the Septuagint. In fact, copies of Daniel have been discovered which are older than many of the fulfillments in the book.

156
Q

Some of Daniel’s prophecies are even fulfilled in the life of Jesus

A

after He quoted from the book!

157
Q

The book of Daniel is the key and foundation to

A

understanding both God’s prophetic plan for the last days and the book of Revelation.

158
Q

While the bulk of the Old Testament is written in the Hebrew language,

A

Daniel 2:4-7:28 is written in Aramaic.

159

Daniel, Ezekiel, Zechariah, and Revelation are

A

the Apocalyptic books of the Bible. Apocalyptic books are those which contain visions of prophetic symbolism.
