In and around the book of Daniel (Kregel reprint library)

Excerpt from In and Around the Book of DanielChristian believers may be divided into two classes - those who believe without interesting themselves greatly in the source of their belief and the land which gave it birth, and those for whom the Semitic east, and especially our Saviour's native land, are the abode of romance and delight. It was the dwelling-place of Abraham and the Patriarchs; and the home of the Jews after the Exodus, when the judges ruled and later the kings held sway. In these latter days, too, Assyria and Babylonia came upon the scene, and we are shown the ways of a still more romantic East in the case of Babylonia, moreover, an earlier home of the Hebrews, as well as a later one, stands revealed.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
