Rev. Doug Griebenaw, Mission Advocate at KFUO Radio, joins the Rev. Dr. Phil Booe to study Daniel 10.

Chapters ten, eleven, and twelve make up one cohesive unit of prophecy. This episode deals with the first third. A being, “having the appearance of a man” (v. 18) with an other-worldly form appears to Daniel. After his initial fear and terror at the encounter, this messenger touches Daniel and gives him strength to endure the rest of the vision. There are many parallels between this divine man and the description of Jesus in Revelation. Is this the pre-incarnate Christ giving Daniel a glimpse of the end of the world?

Mysterious dreams carry a foreboding warning. A disembodied hand writes a cryptic message on the wall. Visions of beasts predict the falling of great kingdoms. And an apocalyptic prophecy foretells the end of time. Thy Strong Word now opens up the Book of Daniel and delves into the life of one of God’s prophets exiled in a Babylon. He speaks truth to power in a way that proclaims the providence and power of God. Daniel’s writings also leave for us visions of the Antichrist and God’s ultimate redemption of his people.
