A number of timelines have
been constructed to graphically represent the prophetic events described in
the book of Daniel. Unlike the book of Revelation, not all the chapters of
Daniel lend themselves to develop prophetic timelines. For example, the first half of Daniel is
mostly an account from a historical perspective of the work of God in the
midst of Israel and the Gentiles. However, there is
discussion for each chapter.
Chapters one and seven have multiple timelines, and are displayed in
parts.
The focus of this site is to not provide
an exhaustive commentary on this wonderful book of the Bible. There are many other fine works that
provide that information already, and available on the internet and in
Christian book stores. Instead, this is a high-level overview that will
touch on all the chapters, but concentrate on the following passages:
- King Nebuchadnezzar’s Dream (Chapter
2)
- Daniel’s vision of the four beasts
(Chapter 7)
- Daniels vision of the Ram, Goat, and the
little horn (Chapter 8)
- Daniel’s angelic visit and revelation
of the seventy weeks (Chapter 9)
- Daniel’s vision of future events
(Chapter 10)
- Daniel’s exchange with the Angel of
the Lord (Chapter 11)
- The final revelation to Daniel (Chapter 12)
