THE STORY OF DANIEL THE PROPHET

                                             Stephen N. Haskell


                 “But go thy way till the end be: for thou shalt rest and stand in thy
                                   lot at the end of the days.” Daniel 12:13.


               few verses. In the most abbreviated manner,


               Gabriel  touches  the  events  of  hundreds  of


               years,  but  he  brings  into  prominence  things


               which  are  noted  elsewhere  in  the  Word  of


               God, and which can be understood only by a


               careful study of other books of the Bible.



               For an understanding of the history of Persia,


               it is necessary to study carefully Ezra, Esther,


               Nehemiah,  Haggai,  and  Zechariah.  These


               books carry the history to the time of Persia’s


               greatest strength, and through the time when


               that  nation  worked  for  God  and  his  people.



               Then, and not till then, is the record silent.
