Daniel and Eschatology
The Book of Daniel answers the question of how Christians can live in earthly kingdoms while being citizens of God's Kingdom. It reflects Old Testament apocalyptic literature and eschatology, with themes such as Nebuchadnezzar’s golden statue, visions of beasts, prophecy of seventy weeks, and the Son of Man. Daniel provides a prophetic overview of history from Babylon to Rome and its successors, pointing to Christ’s return and God’s eternal Kingdom, and is key to understanding Revelation.
