Daniel 4-6, Isaiah 43:14-28

Episode Summary

There are a few different ways to look at the structure of the book of Daniel, and one of them is to note that the first six chapters are comprised of narratives that contain prophecy, while the last six chapters are prophecies that contain history. These next three chapters each happen in successive time periods under successive kings whom Daniel served under, however, later chapters do not maintain chronological order. Each account shows God’s supreme authority over all kings and kingdoms. Those who attempt to thwart the Lord’s plans and the Lord’s ways are all shown to be weak and easily dismissed.
