The Expositor's Bible: The Book of Daniel by F. W. Farrar

"The Expositor's Bible: The Book of Daniel" by F. W. Farrar is a biblical commentary written in the late 19th century. This volume delves into the historical and theological aspects of the Book of Daniel, exploring its authorship, structure, and moral lessons. The commentary aims to provide an insightful analysis that serves both academic scholars and general readers interested in biblical studies. The opening of this commentary introduces the reader to the Book of Daniel, highlighting its significance within the canon of Scriptures despite debates over its historical accuracy. Farrar discusses the prophet Daniel's life and role during the Babylonian captivity, emphasizing both his high status under various rulers and the gaps in historical corroboration of his existence. The text sets the stage for a thorough examination of the book's themes, language, and interpretations, making it clear that the following chapters will dissect both the prophetic visions and historical narratives, while also reflecting on the broader moral teachings embedded within the text.
