From Scott Wenig

Scott Wenig is associate professor of applied theology at Denver Seminary in Denver, Colorado, and author of Straightening the Altars.

Dale Ralph Davis, The Message of Daniel (Downers Grove: IVP, 2013).

  • Davis is a masterful scholar of the text as well as a practicing preacher. This volume is full of tremendous insights, useful illustrations, and sparkling prose!

Ronald Wallace, The Lord is King: The Message of Daniel (Downers Grove: IVP, 1979).

  • Wallace was one of the pre-eminent bible scholars and theologians of the past generation. This volume contains innumerable theological gems and handles the apocalyptic sections with exceptional sensitivity and insight.

Christopher J.H. Wright, Hearing the Message of Daniel: Sustaining Faith in Today’s World (Grand Rapids: Zondervan, 2017).

  • This helpful volume reflects Wright’s tremendous facility with Old Testament literature but is written for those who teach, preach, and pastor people who live and work in the secular realm ala’ Daniel.
