I have persued the study of the book of Daniel for 20 years, of all the commentaries I have read this one is the best. The author is a careful exegete and shows considerable evenhandedness in discussing some of the tough issues in the book. The author holds to a 5'th century date and sees the fouth kingdom as Rome. Wood deals with the greek words for the musical insturments and also answers modern critics,(though not as well as Josh McDowell) The only volume that even comes close to this one from a premillineal perspective is Walvoord's book. Chapter nine is well done and clear using Andersons dating. For a fuller presentation of the premellinal position Culver's work is great. This is one of the best overall! The other authors that deserve a place on your shelf are; Walvoord,Robert Dick Wilson,D.J.Wiseman,Wooley,Whitcomb. And of course Wood.

This is an excellent, theologically conservative, commentary on the Book of Daniel. He clearly and persuasively explains the relationship between historical events and the prophetic passages. He does a good job explaining the likely significance of the prophecies not yet fulfilled.

Really well written book. It is a bit wordy in places and takes time to digest the material. This is not a fast read; but a paced approach to the material does yield positive results. The opinions expressed in this book are well balanced also.

Very satisfied with the Book, came sooner than expected and was in good shape would order again from seller, God Bless!

A detailed, including chronological information, commentary that suported my study quite well. The book's condition upon arrival was excellent.
