The Book of Daniel occupies a unique position in the scriptural canon because of its complex form and the symbolism of its subject matter. The contemporary resurgence of interest in apocalyptic literature created the need for a new commentary which takes into account the most recent developments in the study of Daniel. Professor Lacocque's book, which combines knowledge of current critical writing about Daniel with original exegesis of the text, is essential reading for students of the Book and of apocalyptic in general. The actual commentary on the Hebrew and Aramaic text is introduced by a discussion of the major problems confronting the reader: the name of Daniel, the apocalyptic genre, the chronology of the Book and its literary composition, the milieu in which apocalyptic was formed, the place of Daniel in the scriptural canon, the use of both Hebrew and Aramaic, the complex plan of the Book, and a chronological table of the events against which the drama of Daniel was supposedly played out, The commentary on the Book of Daniel is printed with André Lacocque's English translation of the biblical text and a verse-by-verse exegesis of the Hebrew and Aramaic originals. Daniel's innovative understanding of the Son of Man and the resurrection of the righteous is vitally important both for the Synagogue and the Church. The final section reflecting of this study reflects on the significance of the Book of Daniel for the modern age. religion,religion and spirituality Religion & Spirituality, Westminster John Knox Press<
