Biblical commentary.
In Babylon/Babel, God inaugurates a new stage in his plan of salvation. Where once men had built a tower to reach the heavens, God descends to reveal himself. Rather than plunging them into the confusion of languages, he enlightens them about his person. Nebuchadnezzar, Belshazzar, and Darius receive visions and witness wonders. They discover the grace and justice of God.
This commentary presents a historical, literary, and prophetic analysis of an exceptional book. It highlights the parallels with the history of Babel, Joseph, and Ezekiel. It emphasizes the similarities and contrasts with the book of Revelation.
The prophet Daniel is a model of faith. He is also the witness of detailed visions concerning the end times. The book of Daniel reveals the sequence of world kingdoms, the activity of the Antichrist, the duration of the tribulation, and the description of the Messiah. This commentary endeavors to explain the book's many enigmas in the light of the whole. It shows how the bilingual aspect of the text (Hebrew-Aramaic) unites the work and explains it. [Paperback]
