The book of Daniel is a literary rich and complex story known for its apocalyptic style.

It ends with Daniel's visions and dreams about the Jewish community that offer comfort and encouragement as they endure persecution and hope for deliverance into God's kingdom.Newsom's commentary offers a fresh study of Daniel in its historical context.
